Guests’ Sharing
Roundtable Forum
“Efficient Operations and Lean Costing: A Win-Win Strategy for Business Development”
Mr. Li Mingjun, the host, and the roundtable guests discussed some challenging issues and hot topics in the current stage of industry development. The guests freely expressed their thoughts, sparking a “brainstorming” session that contributed to an intellectual, practical, and innovative atmosphere, fostering a high-quality exchange of ideas. Particularly noteworthy was the lively atmosphere during the audience question session, with attendees actively participating and empathizing, posing several insightful and professional questions. The guests responded with eloquence and generosity, earning frequent and prolonged applause from the audience.
Mr. Song Shiqiang, General Manager of Kinghelm（Huaqiangbei Songshiqiang）
Mr. Song Shiqiang, as one of the four distinguished guests at the roundtable forum, is the founder and general manager of two international companies, Kinghelm Electronics (es.kinghelm.net) and SLKOR semiconductor (ru.slkoric.com). He is also a respected figure in the Chinese electronic components industry, a member of the Expert Database of the China Electronics Society, and a research expert in Huaqiangbei. With extensive recognition, reputation, and influence in the semiconductor and BeiDou navigation industries, Mr. Song’s “On the Path with Song Shiqiang” series of articles and research on Huaqiangbei have been frequently republished by authoritative domestic and international media outlets such as People’s Daily, Xinhua News Agency, Global Times, Associated Press, Yahoo News, The Wall Street Journal, and Harvard Business Review. His related videos have gained popularity on platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Bilibili, contributing positively to purifying the business environment in Huaqiangbei, promoting traditional Chinese culture, and fostering socialist economic prosperity. Under his leadership, Kinghelm Electronics (fr.kinghelm.net) and SLKOR semiconductor (es.slkoric.com) have steadfastly pursued international development since their inception, actively expanding into overseas markets. With the support of the “domestic substitution” strategy, they have achieved 100% growth in performance for two consecutive years, thereby making significant contributions to regional economic growth and the high-quality development of the industry.

Mr. Song Shiqiang’s brilliant on-site remarks stem from his forward-thinking vision, profound professional knowledge, and rich entrepreneurial experience. His insights into efficient business operations, lean cost management, and innovation enhancement have been thoroughly researched and validated through practice and time, as evidenced by the robust and rapid development of Kinghelm and SLKOR’s “dual-wheel drive” strategy! Particularly when asked by host Mr. Li Mingjun how companies can expand their revenue through innovation to explore new markets or product lines, Mr. Song Shiqiang’s 8-minute response can be described as a conscientious admonition, every word a gem, and deeply thought-provoking:
First, Mr. Song Shiqiang clearly points out that innovation must have a foundation and adhere to its underlying logic, but true innovation is still challenging. He candidly admits, “We used to make Beidou antennas, and the underlying technology of Beidou antennas is RF and microwave transmission technology, and the protective technology during transmission. Later, as the Beidou industry chain became saturated, many of our factory’s high-end equipment and precision instruments became redundant. In order to maximize resource utilization and manpower effectiveness, we made a technological shift based on the existing common technology and developed a series of RF connectors, then seized the opportunity of the era of IoT to achieve hot sales in the market!” “This is what we call innovation, and because our Beidou antennas and RF connectors have the same raw materials, the underlying logic of the technology is the same, and the customer base is also the same, so our innovation has several advantages, but it is still very difficult to do it.”
Second, Mr. Song Shiqiang emphasizes that innovation requires caution, and micro-innovation + internet marketing can work. He says, “Innovation is actually very tough. I myself am a very capable engineer, and we also have a bunch of masters and doctors from Tsinghua and Peking University, but our entrepreneurship and innovation are still very difficult. At first, customers didn’t recognize us, saying that we used to make antennas, and now we’re making connectors. Later, customers gradually accepted it, but our investment has always been large, and the investment has not been recovered, so it’s very hard.” “Now it’s the era of IoT, the underlying logic of internet marketing is to first attract people, as long as there are people on this platform, you can sell things.” “You make some micro-innovations, minor adjustments on the basis of the original, and use internet thinking to do it, then you can do it well.”
Third, Mr. Song Shiqiang offers advice: “Whatever we do, don’t just look at the surface, you must see what’s underneath, including what we call innovation.” “You shouldn’t take too big steps, nor should you be ignorant of the internet, otherwise it’s easy to harm the foundation of your career, efficiency will be low, costs will be high, risks will be high, and operations will easily encounter problems.”
