Considering it is a gaming industry site I think the idea was mainly to bring up how low paid many game programmers are and how poor their lives are due to the long hours. I know at China related events particularly it has also been mentioned you can get pretty much free office space in the right areas thanks to the government incentives as well. So if anything, the publicity on the low pay and long hours for game programmers might encourage investors/companies to start their own out sourcing branch over there/etc..
