Como eu faço para aderir uma vaga gosto de tecnologias me interesso
Dá-lhe BYD… graças a Deus… Carros com Tecnologia e com preço baixo… Falta só a **** do governo diminuir a carga tributária… Essa claro quase impossível com governo atual.
Bem, já que os chineses viram que pode escravizar e torturar trabalhador no Brasil, agora sim que irão fazer produtos de péssima qualidade quase de graça.
Enfim, quem torce e compra produto chinês apoia a tortura e escravidão de trabalhadores.
**** insano fingindo q se importa com a vida de trabalhadores na China. Vcs odeiam todos os trabalhadores, seja na China ou no Brasil.
