Founded in 1978, the company used to be an original equipment manufacturer for foreign big names. Facing faltering demand and decreasing profit margins after the financial crisis since 2008, the company made a tough decision to change its business model, which later enabled it to transform to an original design manufacturer and finally an original brand manufacturer.展开更多
