黄家姐妹俩在一家工厂的招聘摊位前坐下,与一位人力资源经理交谈了几句,就迅速赶往下一个摊位。“我在一家电脑配件厂上班,算上加班工资,我每月已经能挣到1500元人民币(合220美元)。”22岁的小湘(音译)告诉我们。她正与妹妹小岛(音译)手牵着手,走在一处露天招聘会上。17岁的小岛离毕业还有一年,毕业后她将追随姐姐,离开她们的家乡——中国最大出口省份广东省的一个村庄——前往东莞,东莞是香港以北的一个制造业中心,距离香港仅一小时车程。 Sister Huang sat in front of a factory’s booth and chatted with a human resources manager for a few quick rushes to the next booth. “I work in a computer parts factory, count overtime wages, I have been able to earn 1,500 yuan a month (220 US dollars). ” 22-year-old Xiao Xiang (phonetic) told us. She is holding hands with sister island (transliteration), walking in an open-air job fair. The 17-year-old is another year away from graduation. After graduation, she will follow her sister and leave their hometown - a village in Guangdong Province, China’s largest export province - to Dongguan, a manufacturing center north of Hong Kong. Hong Kong is just an hour’s drive away.
