问题 The Hyper Steel Corporation announced on Monday that it plans to close a Dutch factory and to reduce a British operation, leading to the loss of 1,400 jobs. The moves are designed to " improve Hyper Steel’s cost structure" following rapid growth through acquisitions, Mr. William Keating, a spokesperson for the company, said in a statement. The Dutch plant, in southern Breda, will see its production transferred to Belgian plants and another Dutch plant in the city of Eindhoven. The phaseout is expected to take 24 months. Some 845 jobs will be cut there, and the British plant affected is in Manchester, where 555 jobs will be cut. Some production will be moved to other British plants in Liverpool and Preston. The Manchester plant will stay open to produce steel.
What is the subject of the article?
选项 A、The relocation of some plants
B、The fall in production of overseas plants
C、The rise of the unemployment rate
