Qinhuangdao: Juniors invented the light control smart lock, self-employed as the boss

Have you ever encountered such a situation: accidentally lost the key, or left the key at home, and finally had to open the lock company to unlock. When the unlocking professional uses a simple tool to open the door lock with three simples and five divisions, you are grateful, and the heart is somewhat uneasy - the seemingly sturdy "iron general" is also so vulnerable.

Have you ever seen such an unlocking method: pull out the phone, open the phone app, press the button against the door lock, the light flashes, with a crisp "click" sound, the door lock opens. The key is subtly hidden in the daily use of the mobile phone, which is convenient to carry, safe and reliable.

From ordinary mechanical locks to novel light-controlled electronic locks, from actively adapting to market demand to increasing the added value of products. Gou Chunlei and Li Qiang, the two junior students from Northeastern University Qinhuangdao, led the small and micro enterprises they founded, combined with light and locks with unique technology, and developed a world-leading product. An impressive development path.

Holding a number of patents, I was favored by venture capital firms, set up my own company, signed product orders... step by step, and the students around me are still preparing for postgraduate study in the study room, or rushing to find a job. On the road, Gou Chunlei and Li Qiang, in their own company, thought about how to let light-controlled electronic locks enter thousands of households in China, and even go abroad and go to the world.

"Ordinary mechanical locks have been developed for many years. People have thoroughly studied its structure and mechanism. In the era of diversified consumption, people have put forward higher requirements for supply quality. If enterprises want to develop, they can only be born out of nothing. Products that have never been seen before, or have new products, upgrade and upgrade products." As a student of the Institute of Control Engineering and Measurement Technology and Instrumentation, Gou Chunlei realized that the ordinary key is a means of controlling the opening and closing of the door lock. Perhaps another way to achieve control of the door lock.

The idea comes from life. From the daily use of the mobile phone, Gou Chunlei thought of a convenient and portable, safe and reliable way to control the door lock - through the mobile phone flash to open and close the door lock.

"Now smart phones are popular. Almost all mobile phones have flashlights. If you encrypt the light of the flash, install a device that receives light on the door lock, and open and close the lock through it. Once this idea is successful, not only will the smart lock be realized. A major breakthrough in technology research and development will also bring great convenience to people's lives. Perhaps Gou Chunlei did not realize that his bold vision would bring an innovation to the Chinese lock industry.

Every major advance in science comes from bold and novel ideas, but turning ideas into reality is a long process.

Fingerprint unlocking, mobile phone unlocking, Bluetooth unlocking... At present, such technology is available at home and abroad, but choose a suitable device to combine light and lock, only Gou Chunlei and Li Qiang have arrived.

Brand, personality, ingenuity, one can not be less. In the process of research and development, Gou Chunlei and Li Qiang repeatedly asked themselves, compared with the high-quality smart locks at home and abroad, what short-boards are needed to develop their own light-controlled electronic locks?

What do I do if I lost my phone? You can log in to the account on the computer and directly cancel the unlocking permission of the lost mobile phone through the network. You can also use another mobile phone to re-download the software, modify the opening password, and let the lost mobile phone lose the permission to open the door.

What should the elderly and children do not use their smartphones? The product provides them with three different ways of unlocking: the electronic key combined with the key and the chip is unlocked; the light control laser key pen is unlocked; the touch button is unlocked.

What do you do when you are not at home? Use the mobile phone for remote authorization, send the password sharing key through SMS, WeChat, QQ, and the password has expired once.

What if the technology of combining light and lock is broken? The design is reserved for cloud upgrades, and will continue to develop and continuously improve the security level. Even if it is cracked, the R&D team can quickly upgrade the product through cloud upgrade...

More than five months, labs, classrooms, dormitories, boring three points and one line, Gou Chunlei, Li Qiang from the perspective of consumers, all possible problems of the product, one by one. Among them, they couldn't remember how many wanted and how many failures they encountered, but in the end, they insisted on the end.

When the reporter saw this set of door locks, he felt that its appearance was not much different from other smart locks. Can't help but doubt, use light to unlock, and where is the technical core point of technology level?

"Our innovation and technical difficulties have two points, one is the combination of light and lock, and the other is the encryption security algorithm combining light and lock." Gou Chunlei said that with this unique technology, they applied for a patent.

Compared with the popular Internet projects, the light control smart lock developed by the team of Gou Chunlei is more grounded. In November 2015, Gou Chunlei and Li Qiang obtained a number of patent certificates for light-controlled smart locks and second- and third-generation products, which formed a comprehensive intellectual property protection for mobile phone light-controlled smart lock projects, which also allowed them to work with investors. More convincing when meeting.

With the innovation and practicality of the project, they have achieved outstanding results in a number of heavyweight competitions, winning the attention and capital injection of venture capital companies. In January 2016, the team of Gou Chunlei officially applied for the business license. The Northeastern University Qinhuangdao Branch provided office space. They founded Hebei Chikai Technology Co., Ltd., and Gou Chunlei became a veritable CEO. More than 30 people.

Innovation is unlimited and the future is unlimited. At a time when the economy enters a new normal and vigorously promotes supply-side structural reforms, Gou Chunlei and Li Qiang realize that only innovation can give sufficient vitality and motivation to economic development. Only innovation can enable enterprises to win the future.

Leading people will always pursue the lead; one step ahead, it is likely to be caught up in one step, only two or three steps ahead, perhaps to maintain the technical control of the latecomers and followers. Li Qiang said: "We have sufficient technical reserves. At present, we have developed two or three generations of products based on existing products and obtained a number of patent certificates. If someone imitates, we will immediately launch the next generation of products. ."

Seizing the market opportunities has become a top priority. "At present, the coverage of smart locks in the Chinese market is only about 2%, while in developed countries, the coverage of smart locks is as high as 70% to 80%." Gou Chunlei believes that China has a large population base and the development of smart locks has A large market space, and the light-controlled electronic locks they developed compared with similar smart locks on the market, not only technology wins, but also has a great advantage in price.

At present, the company of Gou Chunlei has begun to accept orders from home and abroad. They have launched a smart access control and three intelligent anti-theft lock products, which have been exported to more than 60 countries and regions around the world, and have been widely praised and favored by users.

“The school takes out 2.6 million yuan each year as a university student's innovation and entrepreneurship fund to support college students' entrepreneurship. It is to let more projects like light-controlled electronic locks turn from creativity to reality, and let college students' innovative spirit, innovation consciousness and innovation and entrepreneurship. Continuously enhanced." Qi Qifei, deputy director of the Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship of the University of Northeastern Qinhuangdao, said.

With the support of the school, advanced technology, capital injection, and a constantly expanding market, Gou Chunlei and Li Qiang are confident in the future. Gou Chunlei said that they plan to turn Qinhuangdao into China's “lock capital” in the next few years. At the same time, they will go to the world with their own Chinese lock brand.

And for these two juniors, their road to entrepreneurship has only just begun.

Undermount Sink

Undermount sinks are sinks installed under the surface of a worktop with a cut out made to the size of the bowl. It is not common for an undermount sink to come with a draining board but rather the idea is that water can be wiped towards the sink. The kitchen tap is installed separately unlike an inset sink and in the case of granite worktops, has a radial cut out to suit the shape of the sink. They are known as a modern kitchen design and are starting to appear more often.
