Shenzhen: A fishing village when it was selected as China's
first special economic zone in 1979, Shenzhen hosts the world's largest
electronics factory, "Foxconn City," famous for its iPhones. The
facility employs an estimated 230,000 workers, fed by an average of 3 tons of
pork and 13 tons of rice per day. Above, Chinese workers gather outside Shenzhen's Foxconn factory in May 2010 after a labor rights group announced it had found "deplorable" conditions at Apple suppliers in China.
