Lenovo Did Not Buy Container Houses

Lenovo did not buy container houses, but it once purchased container transportation for R&D equipment. Here is a detailed introduction:

Ni Guangnan Self-funded Equipment Purchase and Container Transportation Back

When studying abroad, Academician Ni Guangnan relied on his position as a visiting researcher at the Canadian Academy of Sciences to save up nearly $80,000 in wages over two years. Instead of keeping this money for personal use, he used it to purchase relevant research instruments and transported them back to the Chinese Academy of Sciences via containers. These instruments purchased overseas laid a solid foundation for the subsequent development of the Lenovo Chinese character card and Lenovo microcomputer, which he led. Both of these R&D achievements won the National Science and Technology First Prize and generated huge revenues for Lenovo at that time.
