The invention relates to the technical field of material preparation, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a metal-resin composite and the metal-resin composite. The preparation method comprises the step of oil removing and degreasing treatment, native metal oxide surface layer removing treatment, secondary etching treatment, washing with water, drying treatment, and resin injection molding on a metal workpiece in sequence, so as to obtain the metal-resin composite. The composite has excellent characteristics of metal force and resin, metal and the resin can be firmly bonded, and experiments indicate that under relatively large action, even if the resin is broken off, the resin and the metal are still firmly bonded.
