["Princess," Wal-Mart Factory Worker]
My name is Wang De Kuy (phonetic]. I am 21 years old. I am
from the Shangzai province. My family plants corn, patties, and
potato. I wanted to earn some money so that their life could be
easier. At least, I didn't want their life to be too hard.
They would work from dawn till night. They would begin to work on
the farm at daybreak, and wouldn't get back until night. I thought
about working in the factory when I was in middle school. At the
time, I thought it would be interesting and exciting to work in the
factory. I left my home town on April 29th this year, and then
began to look for a job in Shengzen. At that time, I had a friend
working in that factory who also came from my home town. So I went
to see my friend each day at the factory gate, which is just in front of
Wen Yi's room.
["Little Bear," Wal-Mart Factory
Worker] My name is Wen Yi and I come from Hunan province.

He heard my dialect when I was talking to my friend. Then he spoke
with me using the same dialect. He asked me where I was from.
I didn't tell him the truth. I said I was from Shonking area.
He served for the army in Shonking for a couple of years, so he can
speak the Shonking dialect. That's the way we got to know each
other.
