Strictly speaking, this was the first time Lin Miao entered the Night City factory assembly line for inspection. It was... quite eye-opening.
There wasn't much difference compared to the Guangzhou factory in 2010. The harsh metallic friction noise made one's scalp tingle. Rows of workers stood on both sides of the assembly line, their hands constantly assembling prosthetic limbs delivered by the conveyor belt, with eyes void of any light, numb like real machines.
No need to mention trivial issues like dark circles; a strange rubber smell filled the air, and Lin Miao suspected those people's poor mental states might indicate some illness.
There wasn't even a single stool here; everyone worked standing up.
If there's something different to pick about, it's probably their exceptional work efficiency, assembling parts with modified hands so fast that they leave afterimages in one's eyes.
