No, the way this usually goes is that a Western firm will order parts from a company in China, which then subcontracts to a firm that uses slave labor. This obfuscation isn't always easy to find out about, especially if you don't have knowledgeable people on the ground.

if you are telling me they use slaves, then its pretty naive to think they don't know.

could have been you know, not outsourcing their shit to bangladesh or other east asian places known for their sweatshops, thats always an option.
