"One-Meter Counters" Created Billionaires—How Does Huaqiangbei's Song Shiqiang Analyze This Wealth-Creation Miracle?
2026-09-24
1040
The three great talents of Huaqiangbei, from left to right: Wu Bo, Cheng Yimu, and Song Shiqiang.
Song Shiqiang of Huaqiangbei (Huaqiangbei Song Shiqiang) is the founder and general manager of Kinghelm Electronics (www.kinghelm.net) and Slkor Semiconductor (www.slkoric.com). He is an expert in Huaqiangbei business research. His series of research articles under "Song Shiqiang's Discourses," including "Why Are There So Many Billionaires in Shenzhen Huaqiangbei?", "Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow of Shenzhen Huaqiangbei," "Refuting Bloomberg's Article ‘China’s Underground Chip Market Attracts Desperate Automakers’," and "Research on Shanzhai Mobile Phones in Huaqiangbei," provide systematic discussions of Huaqiangbei's "one-meter counters" that are remarkable and worth careful reading.
I. Development of Huaqiangbei's "One-Meter Counters"In Huaqiangbei's "one-meter counters," the upper glass display case shows samples, while the lower storage compartments and the wall-mounted storage units behind are fully stocked with goods.Numerous small counters have gathered into a huge force, creating Huaqiangbei's abundance of people, money, goods, information, and opportunities, and forming Huaqiangbei's core competitiveness. Electronic components have high value; for example, our Slkor Semiconductor (www.slkoric.com) has three Slkor brand direct-sale stores in Huaqiangbei, each less than 8 square meters and holding RMB 1 million worth of goods. The Huaqiangbei market provides thoughtful and considerate services for "one-meter counters": they can register as small-scale taxpayers, and at that time 17% VAT invoices were also issued on their behalf. Later, some "one-meter counters" developed into distributors, some moved toward brand building and technology development, and some expanded into room-sized stalls. Mr. Song Shiqiang emphasized that Huaqiangbei's "one-meter counters" gave rise to a number of well-known enterprises, including Han’s Laser, JLC, Longsys, Coship Electronics, Jinzheng, Hasee Computer, Meilong SUP Electronics, and Zhugao Electronics. Of course, when Kinghelm Electronics (www.kinghelm.net) and Slkor Semiconductor (www.slkoric.com) started their businesses, their starting point was somewhat higher, with clean and tidy offices, but they also developed under the influence of Huaqiangbei culture.
II. The Secret Behind Huaqiangbei's "One-Meter Counters" Creating Billionaires
Mr. Song Shiqiang precisely explained the underlying logic and opportunity cost of how Huaqiangbei's "one-meter counters" created billionaires: "At its peak, Huaqiangbei had about 500,000 people working in the industry, mostly small businesses and ‘one-meter counters.’ In addition, there were about 100,000 backpackers flowing through every day. They were all independent economic entities! Because the base was simply too large, more people seized chance opportunities and became tycoons!" Reality is just as Mr. Song Shiqiang said: "Huaqiangbei's ‘one-meter counters’ created many business miracles. Goods turned over rapidly at the counters every day, and money poured in. They mass-produced the earliest millionaires and women worth tens of millions, and produced more than 60 billionaires." On August 4, 2026, JLC, which started from a Huaqiangbei "one-meter counter," was listed on the Main Board of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Its three founders, Ding Hui, Ding Huixiang, and Yuan Jiangtao, each had a net worth exceeding RMB 10 billion. Mr. Song Shiqiang attended JLC’s Main Board listing appreciation banquet on behalf of Kinghelm (www.kinghelm.net) and Slkor (www.slkoric.com).

III. The Significance of the Wealth-Creation Miracle of Huaqiangbei's "One-Meter Counters"
Song Shiqiang of Kinghelm (www.kinghelm.net) and Slkor (www.slkoric.com) believes that small and medium-sized private enterprises are characterized by creativity, flexibility, rapid breakthrough, and strong penetration. Huaqiangbei has more than 50 professional markets of various types, with more than 60,000 enterprises and more than 40,000 individual industrial and commercial households, involving integrated circuit distribution, the Internet, software development, and other fields. Many of them are "Huaqiangbei one-meter counters." In the process of observing and studying Huaqiangbei, Song Shiqiang, Cheng Yimu of the Electronics Chamber of Commerce, and Wu Bo of LCSC were rated by bosses and proprietresses as the "Three Great Talents of Huaqiangbei." He also concluded that the Huaqiangbei one-meter counter, delivery pushcart, small boss’s flip-flops, and street pork trotter rice were the early "Four Treasures of Huaqiangbei." Huaqiangbei's "one-meter counters" continue to provide an entrepreneurial platform for small and medium-sized enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households, contributing to Shenzhen’s development as an innovative city.

Ten Years of Growth, Striving to Become a Leader in the Industry— An Interview with August Sales Champion Zhou Yuan, Kinghelm Sales Department Two
2026-09-22
1238
Song Shiqiang (left), General Manager of Kinghelm and Slkor, presents the August 2026 Sales Champion award to Zhou Yuan.
Strong sales drive business growth, and Zhou Yuan was named the August 2026 sales champion of Kinghelm (http://www.kinghelm.net/) and Slkor (http://www.slkoric.com/). At Kinghelm, Zhou Yuan has set himself a ten-year goal: to become one of the company's leading sales professionals, help the company become a leader in the antenna and connector industry, and grow alongside the company.
The Chinese character "Yuan"can mean "head"and, by extension, "beginning"— the starting point of something.
For Zhou Yuan, that starting point is his hometown of Meishan, Sichuan Province, a place he still speaks of with deep affection: "I was born in Meishan in 1993. Su Dongpo (Su Shi, 1037–1101), one of the leading literary figures of the Northern Song dynasty and one of the Eight Great Prose Masters of the Tang and Song dynasties, has long been a source of pride for the people of Meishan. Together with his father, Su Xun, and his younger brother, Su Zhe, he is known as one of the "Three Su." Their lives, achievements and spirit have had a profound influence on me.
The Three Su Shrine Museum, which includes the Three Su Memorial Hall, is a National First-Class Museum in China. I have visited the museum many times, and each visit has deepened my appreciation of the enduring appeal of Dongpo and Three Su culture across the centuries."
Zhou Yuan visits the Three Su Shrine Museum in Meishan, Sichuan Province, spring 2025
Zhou Yuan of Kinghelm Sales Department Two, a native of Meishan, Sichuan Province
Zhou Yuan divides his journey from his hometown to southern China into three stages.
The first stage was in Guangzhou. He began working there in 2012 as a printing machinery operator, where he gained his first systematic experience in equipment operation and maintenance, on-site management, end-to-end quality control, safety compliance and teamwork.
The second stage was Shenzhen. Seeking better career opportunities, he moved to Shenzhen at the end of 2012 for a better opening, and his first stop was handling customer complaints at SF Express, a Fortune Global 500 company. Four to five years in the role gave him first-hand experience of the importance—and scarcity—of high-quality customer service, eventually leading him toward a career in sales.
The third stage was his transition into sales. He entered sales at the end of 2016, initially working in the automation equipment sector and selling high-precision linear guide rails and ball screws, then kept sharpening his skills and gathering experience in other industries. In February 2023 he joined Kinghelm (http://www.kinghelm.net/) as a salesperson, entering the semiconductor and electronics industry and providing customers with one-stop solutions for microwave and RF signal transmission and reception.
General Manager Song Shiqiang (center) presents a team award to Kinghelm Sales Department Two
Kinghelm (http://www.kinghelm.net/) provides strong support for employee development, helping accelerate Zhou Yuan's professional growth. He did not know that Song Shiqiang, the boss of Kinghelm and Slkor (http://www.slkoric.com/), was also from Sichuan. It was through General Manager Song Shiqiang that colleagues from Sichuan and Chongqing began joining the gatherings of the Sichuan-Chongqing electronics industry networking group, known as "Chuan-Yu Tongxin Hui "; the company put together the Slkor Warriors basketball team and the Kinghelm badminton team and organizes games and meet-ups regularly, and through them he has been lucky enough to meet a great many Sichuan-Chongqing entrepreneurs, fellow townspeople, peers and friends who share his interests. "Playing sports after work keeps me fit, strengthens friendships, and allows me to contribute to the company and to industry exchanges," he said.
We also wish the Kinghelm brand continued success across its extensive product portfolio, including Type-C, SMA, IPEX, MCX and HDMI connectors; automotive wiring harnesses; adapter cables; pin headers and terminals; RF cables and connectors; antennas, including GPS, WiFi, Beidou, built-in, 4G and ceramic antennas; electronic components and sensors; millimeter-wave products; and a wide range of switches, jacks and other interconnect products.

Basketball and badminton, Zhou Yuan says, have been part of his life since middle school. "I started playing basketball in middle school because it keeps me fit and helps me make friends who share the same interest. Even today, I play mainly for the enjoyment and the experience of taking part. I’m actually better at badminton."
Friendship comes first, competition second — and Zhou Yuan is happy to share what he has learned: "In basketball, I usually play point guard, or the No. 1 position. My job is to bring the ball safely up the court and defend the opposing team’s main playmaker. I set up plays rather than finish them. So I play cleanly and fairly, both for my own safety and for everyone else’s, and simply enjoy the game."
Sales champion Zhou Yuan in an interview with the Kinghelm press team
Looking back on his journey from salesperson to sales champion, Zhou Yuan attributes his success to one thing: meeting customer needs and closing deals. "The approach is simple: first understand and match the customer’s needs precisely, then build trust step by step and let the deal follow naturally. But none of this works without a deep understanding of the company and its products. That knowledge takes time to build and absorb, and it is the foundation for serving customers well and closing deals."
To build that foundation, he breaks the sales process for RF and high-speed connectors into three steps: finding customers, visiting customers and closing deals. He keeps the process simple and moves forward steadily, learning from each customer interaction and continuously refining his approach in the field.
Step one: finding customers — focusing on high-value leads. He assesses a target company’s industry, size and key pain points, prioritizes companies that are expanding capacity, upgrading their technology or seeking domestic alternatives to imported components, and focuses on high-potential A-class customers.
Step two: visiting customers — building trust and uncovering their real needs. With engineering customers, he spends more time discussing applications and solutions, connecting product capabilities with the customer’s actual pain points and providing practical value that can be put to use. With non-engineering customers, he builds rapport by discussing industry trends and the company’s experience and capabilities, allowing trust to develop naturally.
Step three: closing deals — helping customers reach a decision without pressure. Known for his relaxed and easygoing personality, Zhou Yuan says he has also been influenced by Daoist philosophy and prefers to let things develop naturally. "My approach is simple: when a customer has a need, I focus on meeting it," he said. "Most of the time, I make sure the samples and debugging are handled properly, provide technical support, resolve application issues, and let the quality of the service speak for itself. When a customer moves into mass production or expands and new needs arise, they naturally come to me. Do the groundwork well, and the results will follow naturally."

What is the core competitiveness of Huaqiangbei Commercial Street?
2026-09-19
1188
In September, Kinghelm and Slkor once again went to Huaqiangbei to "deliver cooling relief." The special-price promotion for four diodes—A7, FR107, M7, and 1N4148W—continues until October 10!
In October 2008, at the opening ceremony of the Huaqiangbei sub-venue of the 10th China Hi-Tech Fair, the China Electronics Industry Association (China Electronics Chamber of Commerce) officially awarded Huaqiangbei Commercial Street the title of "China’s No. 1 Electronics Street." Regarding the core competitiveness of Huaqiangbei Commercial Street, it can be discussed from five dimensions: history, spirit, industry, city, and cultural tourism:
I. Historical Dimension: Working Together to Build a Trustworthy Business Environment
In the past, Huaqiangbei grew wildly, with cheapness and speed as its keynote. However, with social development, a trustworthy business environment is the core competitiveness of Huaqiangbei as "China’s No. 1 Electronics Street," and it is also the foundation and bottom line that Huaqiangbei must uphold. Huaqiangbei designates November 11 each year as "Integrity Initiative Day." The 115,000 commercial entities under its jurisdiction jointly sign the "Eleven Rules for Honest Business in Huaqiangbei," covering the entire business chain, including clear price marking, quality assurance, and intellectual property protection. Only then can Huaqiangbei have a better future. Song Shiqiang has long been advocating for Huaqiangbei’s business environment.
II. Spiritual Dimension: Grassroots Entrepreneurial and Innovative Spirit
Huaqiangbei’s "one-meter counter" model lowers the threshold for entrepreneurship. Through an agile mechanism of "trial and error—rapid iteration," merchants quickly turn market feedback into product iterations. They also combine cutting-edge technology with market demand to achieve "combinatorial iteration," rapidly creating hit products in niche markets. In this way, they form strong market adaptability and micro-innovation capabilities.
III. Industrial Dimension: A One-Kilometer Electronic Information Full-Industry-Chain Ecosystem
The core competitiveness of Huaqiangbei Commercial Street is the highly densely clustered electronic hardware full-industry-chain ecosystem within 1.45 square kilometers, which brings extremely low trial-and-error costs and extremely fast product iteration capabilities. Combined with global trading channels, it creates a combined advantage of "full-industry-chain ecosystem + agile manufacturing capability + global circulation network + grassroots innovation culture." This enables Huaqiangbei to take the lead in completing product aggregation, scenario implementation, and market verification in every wave of technological change, forming a core competitiveness that other commercial districts cannot replicate.
IV. Urban Dimension: An Innovation Hub Linking the Globe
Huaqiangbei is not only a distribution center for domestic electronic components, but also an innovation hub linking the globe. It can quickly transform "overseas ideas + Shenzhen supply chain" into products and quickly radiate them to the Asia-Pacific region and the rest of the world, forming strong cross-border overseas expansion capabilities.
V. Cultural Tourism Dimension: Deep Integration of Industrial Cultural Tourism and Technological Cultural Tourism
Relying on the world’s top electronic information industry ecosystem, Huaqiangbei perfectly integrates "industry, history, technology, and consumption," forming a non-replicable differentiated advantage—"deep integration of industrial cultural tourism and technological cultural tourism."
In summary, Huaqiangbei’s core competitiveness is not a single "business environment," "grassroots counterattack," or "full industry chain," but a hard-to-replicate core barrier formed through decades of evolution: "a trustworthy business environment + grassroots entrepreneurial and innovative spirit + a one-kilometer electronic information full-industry-chain ecosystem + an innovation hub linking the globe + deep integration of industrial cultural tourism and technological cultural tourism."

What is the connection between Huaqiangbei and the electronics industry in Hong Kong, China?
2026-09-19
1184
The connection between Huaqiangbei and Hong Kong's electronics industry originated from cost and geographical advantages in the early stages of China's reform and opening-up policy. At that time, Hong Kong's manufacturing sector faced increasing pressure from rising land and labor costs, whereas Shenzhen—separated only by a river—possessed low labor costs and ample land resources; moreover, the "Three-Processing and One-Compensation" policy provided further convenient for Hong Kong businesses to expand northward. Located in the Futian District, Huaqiangbei borders the Luohu Port, making it the natural preferred destination for Hong Kong electronics enterprises to relocate.

Hong Kong brought not only industrial relocation to Huaqiangbei but also capital, technology, and international management expertise. In the early stages of China's reform and opening-up policy, Shenzhen lacked access to advanced technology, equipment, and capital; however, leveraging its geographical proximity to Hong Kong, many cutting-edge international technologies and components could be introduced into mainland China via the Luohu Bridge. Hong Kong-based businesses established factories in the Shangbu Industrial Zone through joint ventures and cooperative arrangements, introducing advanced electronic manufacturing technologies and international corporate management practices, thereby laying the industrial foundation for Huaqiangbei.
Leveraging Hong Kong's extensive international trade network, Huaqiangbei has been able to swiftly integrate into the global market. As a free port and a key gateway for international trade, Hong Kong boasts a robust logistics system and a vast network of overseas customers. Components imported from abroad enter Huaqiangbei via Hong Kong, while products manufactured in Huaqiangbei are distributed worldwide through Hong Kong. This two-way flow—combining "bringing in" and "going global" —has transformed Huaqiangbei from a mere industrial zone into a leading electronics trading hub that connects the Chinese mainland with global markets.
With the development of the industrial sector, Huaqiangbei has established a collaborative model known as the "front-store, back-factory" framework. In his book *Song Shiqiang's Perspectives on Huaqiangbei, Shenzhen*, Song Shiqiang, General Manager of SAKO Micro/Jinhangbiao, noted that the area initially utilized the "Three Inputs and One Compensation" bonded processing model – based on imported materials – to accommodate industrial relocation; this model later evolved into the "front-store, back-factory" business approach: Huaqiangbei serves as the "store" responsible for distribution and trading, while surrounding cities act as the "factory" handling production and manufacturing. This division of labor has significantly shortened the time required to transform product concepts into mass production, collectively shaping the distinctive industrial character of Huaqiangbei.
To date, the collaboration between Hong Kong and Huaqiangbei continues to deepen. Evolving from initial processing trade to current supply chain synergy, the electronics industries of both regions have established a complementary relationship. Hong Kong's strengths in international finance, shipping, and trade complement Huaqiangbei's advantages in manufacturing, innovation, and supply chain management, jointly driving the high-quality development of the electronic information industry across the Greater Bay Area.

What length options are available for RF cables?
2026-09-18
907
The length of RF cables can be customized according to the customer’s specific application requirements. Standard cable lengths typically range from a few centimeters to several meters. For applications with limited installation space or short distances between modules, ultra-short RF cable assemblies with lengths of around 10 mm or more can be provided. These compact cables are suitable for applications such as internal module connections, board-to-board connections, and connections between RF modules and antennas, helping minimize cable space while meeting installation and assembly requirements.
For longer RF cables, especially those measuring several meters, the cable length needs to be evaluated together with the operating frequency, cable type, physical dimensions, impedance requirements, and allowable signal loss. As cable length increases, insertion loss during RF signal transmission also increases. Therefore, for long-distance or high-frequency applications, low-loss RF cables are generally recommended to help maintain signal integrity, transmission quality, and overall system performance.
RF cable lengths are not limited to standard specifications and can be cut and customized based on the customer’s equipment structure, installation distance, and application requirements. Whether you need millimeter-level ultra-short cables, conventional cables ranging from several centimeters to hundreds of centimeters, or meter-level long cables, customized solutions can be evaluated according to the specific project requirements.
For cable lengths beyond the standard range, we can further evaluate the appropriate cable type and assembly solution based on the operating frequency, maximum allowable insertion loss, installation environment, bending requirements, and other application conditions, ensuring that the selected RF cable meets the electrical and mechanical requirements of the system.

What waterproof rating can the connectors achieve?
2026-09-17
919
Standard board-level RF connectors, such as SMA and IPEX, are generally not waterproof by themselves. They are mainly designed for applications where the connector is installed inside the equipment or is not directly exposed to water and moisture. If waterproof and dustproof performance is required, waterproof RF connectors, sealed cable connectors, or other sealing components can be selected according to the application requirements.
With proper sealing structures, such as sealing rings, gaskets, and sealants, waterproof RF connectors can typically achieve IP65 to IP67 protection ratings. IP65 provides protection against dust and water jets, while IP66 offers enhanced protection against powerful water jets. IP67 can provide protection against temporary immersion in water, making it suitable for many outdoor communication devices, vehicle-mounted equipment, industrial equipment, security systems, and other applications requiring a higher level of environmental protection.
For applications requiring an even higher level of protection, IP68 can also be developed and customized according to the customer's specific requirements, drawings, samples, or application conditions. The final IP68 rating will depend on the overall product structure and the applicable test conditions.
It is important to note that the waterproof rating does not depend solely on the connector itself. It is also closely related to the overall structural design, sealing ring material and dimensions, connector-to-housing fit, cable exit design, assembly process, and installation method. Therefore, the connector should be designed and verified together with the equipment housing, panel, cable, and sealing structure to ensure that the required protection level can be achieved.
The final waterproof rating should be confirmed based on the actual product structure and verified through the corresponding standardized testing.
