Uneasy "code farmer"

When the company went to work, Pan Weichao was a person who loves toss and restless. In 1998, Pan Weichao used his work to help others develop an MP3. At that time, MP3s with a thousand dollars could store about 6 songs, but there is no such thing in China. At that time, he felt that this thing was useless. It was better to buy an MD. It was cheaper and he could change the tape at will, and the cost was much lower. So he finally decided to give up and not to do this project.

"Look later, there is no dynamic consideration. Like Moore's Law, it will continue to evolve in the future. So we have to do one thing now, not just to see the whole trend, but to see the whole trend, including the advancement of technology, The change in people's needs, how the whole industry is going. When we have to consider one thing now, we must imagine what the world will be like in five years? We have to prepare for the future." However, this experience gave Pan Weichao a great lesson and reminded him of his future entrepreneurial road.

"I didn't want to go to work at that time. I felt very boring every day. I didn't want to be bound too much. I have a lot of ideas to achieve." In 2002, Pan Weichao chose to resign and started a business with several students. Zhongshan Chuangyuan Electronics Co., Ltd. (predecessor of Lexin Medical).

The first project to be done at the beginning of the company was the development of control chips for Christmas lighting, but it was not successful. At that time, it coincided with the key point when mechanical scales were transferred to electronic scales. Pan Weichao learned about the needs of some manufacturers who used to be mechanical scales in the process of technology conversion, and he had some patents and technologies in this regard. As a result, the company decided to produce modules and sensors for electronic scale companies.
