There are not enough women to go around and the women want to go to the big city
and don't want to be stuck on a farm.

So the farmers don't just want labor, they want wives.
So the govt is kidnapping women from other countries like NK, Cambodia, Thailand.
Or luring them to China on false promises.
Of course some foreign women will take the offer if the Chinese farms provide a better life for them.
