Didn't see any specifics around hours in the article though.

Is it twice the pay for twice the working hours? 996 or whatever they call it?

Wish China would offer to triple my pay but I don't speak any chinese languages so they probably won't.

Just let me work remote, thanks.

From what I've read about working at Chinese tech companies, you will not get to work remotely. In fact, you will be required to work in an office for 10 hrs a day instead of coming and going as you please.

Just look at the TSMC factory in AZ as an example. Taiwanese work expectations are not very compatible with how top US talent wants to work.

Taiwan is not China.
