Foxconn puff piece: Will the real Naoki Hosoya please stand up




‘Our company cherishes employees:’ Engineers who work for Foxconn in Japan offer insight on the job.  (Fox6now, 2/7/2018)
Naoki Hosoya and Risa Ikeda are typical of the type of employee Foxconn will be looking for in Wisconsin. Both have engineering degrees, and have moved to Sakai from other cities in Japan to pursue careers at the LCD plant there.
“One of my jobs is adjusting the colors on the LCD panels. I like this part the best," said Naoki.

Are all of these references to the same Naoki Hosoya?  

Reading this article produced clangy, dissonant sounds inside my head.  As far as I know, Foxconn has not developed a reputation for cherishing its employees.
