Foxconn has begun taking on new workers in China as it prepares to begin production of Apple’s next iPhone. The company has added to its numbers at Zhengzhou factory located in eastern China, which is mainly produced iPhone device, ending a freeze on recruitment that was implemented back in February. According to a source from supply chain, the new workers will assemble the upcoming “iPhone 5S,” as well as existing models that Apple has requested to boost capacity. The Zhengzhou plant employs between 250,000 and 300,000 people, and around 10,000 assembly line workers have been added per week since the end of March. Recent reports have claimed that the iPhone 5S will enter production during the second quarter of 2013, ahead of its launch later this year. It could also be joined by a low-cost iPhone which is going to be built by Pegatron, instead of Foxconn. The cheaper version iPhone could help Apple compete in emerging markets, especially in China. Foxconn is said to be feeling the pressure of the increased competition Apple is receiving in the smartphone and tablet markets recently, however, the Taiwanese contractor thought that business will pick up around May when Apple’s new devices enter production. We hope the so-called new iPhone 5S has enough innovative features, minor upgade just won’t cut it.

The love for PSY’s “Gangnam Style” certainly hasn’t slowed with the horsey dance video currently at over 1.5 billion views on YouTube. Its follow-up “Gentleman” music video, has followed a similar style to “Gangnam.” Despite the new single being titled “Gentleman,” the video showcases the K-pop king pulling chairs out from beneath beautiful women, making little kids cry and attempting to pull off sunbathing girls’ tops. Those well-versed in “Gangnam Style” will see familiar faces like the dancing man in the yellow suit, the man in the cowboy hat in the elevator and hoards of hilarious senior citizens. We also have a new subtle hip-shaking choreography with an innovative lyrical hook like “I’m a motherfather gentleman.” Overall, PSY’s performance is still entertaining, but will it break the record again is still too early to say.
