. It costs about 1,400 yuan to register a new company.
, . r On January 1, 2020, the Hong Kong entrepreneurial team from Qianhai received a certificate from the China (Shenzhen) Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition Organizing Committee. Stand out from the fierce competition and win the first prize in the information technology industry team group. For this team, which has been in business for many years, this is a long-awaited surprise. As early as 2010, it was established in Hong Kong and focused on disaster recovery and storage. In 2009, the team independently developed the world's first automatic disaster recovery drill technology. It has registered a patent and entered the mainland, and has also gained certain market attention. But it wasn't until last year, when the team moved to Qianhai, that it took off in a real sense. For entrepreneurs, opportunities and environment are important. Founder Li Dehao said frankly. In his view, with the advent of mass entrepreneurship and innovation, and the huge prospects of the disaster recovery market, opportunities have arrived, and Qianhai allows others to discover its platform faster. Especially for a Hong Kong team like ours, it’s hard to find a place as suitable for us as Qianhai. Li Dehao said.
, . r After many years of entrepreneurship, it has finally found its direction in the mainland. The so-called disaster recovery means that when application systems and databases experience force majeure (earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions), they can be deployed online in real time in remote locations. The standby application system and standby database take over immediately to ensure smooth transactions. Different from simple storage and backup, data disaster recovery equipment can provide an environment for computer information systems that can cope with various disasters, whether it is irresistible natural disasters such as fires, floods, earthquakes, and wars, or computer crimes, viruses, power outages, network / Communication failure, hardware/software errors and human operation errors and other man-made disasters, the disaster recovery system can ensure the security of user data. Among these technologies, the highest level is the ability to provide uninterrupted application services (application disaster recovery), which is also the core competitiveness of the entrepreneurial team. As early as 2000, Li Dehao jointly developed Hong Kong's first set of software specifically for business continuity and disaster recovery with the Network Technology Research Center of Nanyang Polytechnic in Singapore. He was hailed as Hong Kong's local inventor by the Hong Kong media. In 2007, Li Dehao founded the company in Hong Kong and independently developed the world's first patented automatic drill technology in 2018. The so-called automatic drills mean that in addition to regular backups, the system will also provide automatic drills and reports on a daily basis. Chinese regulatory authorities require financial institutions to perform backups once a year, but now almost all
manufacturers only sell a backup tool, but do not provide regular drills on how to use the tool. If there is an emergency, how can we skillfully use these disaster recovery software? This is Li Dehao’s original intention to focus on automatic drills for data security disaster recovery. Through automatic drills, that is, through automatic drills, the cloud disaster recovery center detects data, which is like a daily health check for the system. Problems in the system can be predicted in advance. Once an abnormality in the data system is discovered, it will be immediately Generate reports to nip disaster in the bud. According to Li Dehao, technically speaking, automatic drills are currently very advanced globally. However, the team has been unable to fully open the market. Hong Kong companies have a good awareness of data backup, but they are only willing to choose to cooperate with big brands. We hold patents, but our market share has never been able to break through. In 3 years, Li Dehao and his team left Hong Kong and came to Foshan, hoping to tap the huge potential users through the strong manufacturing base of the Pearl River Delta. With its three world-class technology patents, new disaster recovery and backup standards, and broad market prospects, it received the highest level of RMB 30,000 in entrepreneurial start-up funds from the Nanhai Blue Ocean Talent Plan, which allowed the team to find its direction at once. After coming to Qianhai, he began to stand out. According to statistics, the global disaster recovery market has reached hundreds of billions of yuan, and China's disaster recovery market will also exceed 10 billion yuan by the year. However, in the eyes of professionals, China, as the world's second largest economy, is obviously still relatively lagging behind in terms of data security and compliance. Currently, nearly half of the Chinese market is occupied by American products, but no Chinese storage backup software manufacturer can break into the international market. Especially today, when information security has become a national strategy, independent innovation in backup and disaster recovery technology is even more important than network equipment. However, in the past, the overall informatization level of mainland enterprises was relatively low, so the prospects are very broad. Li Dehao said. In the autumn of that year, after more than years of development, when the team had made considerable progress in market development, Li Dehao heard that there was an entrepreneurial base in Qianhai, Shenzhen, that was recruiting a Hong Kong team. With the idea of giving it a try, he came to Qianhai and immediately decided to move the team here. It can be clearly felt that Qianhai’s attention is different from other cities in the mainland. Every week, various political figures, investors, scholars, media, and entrepreneurs come here to visit and exchange. It has been only in Zhongguancun in Beijing for so long. I have never seen such a situation before. But as a Hong Konger, I am obviously closer to Shenzhen in terms of cultural atmosphere and work habits, not to mention the distance. It only takes more than an hour to return home to Hong Kong. Li Dehao said.
, . r After settling in the Qianhai Innovation and Entrepreneurship Dream Factory, like many other Hong Kong teams, they began to stand out. Competition awards, order cooperation, etc. are coming one after another. After successfully cooperating with Inspur Group, they also established a top 100 alliance for cloud computing backup services with Ziguang Digital. They hope to promote the country's move towards outsourcing in 2020 and help channel integrators collectively gradually transform into cloud services.
, . rOur ultimate goal is to enable Chinese people to use self-developed application-level disaster recovery and auditing products, and to bring new standards for disaster recovery with brand-new technology. Li Dehao said that he hopes to prove with sufficient strength that not only foreign products are absolutely safe and easy to use. Why Hong Kong Entrepreneurs Gather in Qianhai As of the end of last year, DreamWorks has introduced a total of Shenzhen-Hong Kong international entrepreneurial teams, including Hong Kong and international team members, becoming Shenzhen's pioneer in creating Shenzhen-Hong Kong talent exchange and integration. What makes Qianhai so attractive to talents, especially Hong Kong entrepreneurs? Perhaps we can tell something from the settlement process.
, . rLast year, Qianhai DreamWorks organized various activities in conjunction with relevant institutions in Shenzhen and Hong Kong, attracting a large number of investors and entrepreneurs from both sides of the Taiwan Strait. More and more young people in Hong Kong have put aside their previous stereotypes and hope to start a business in the mainland and Qianhai. Houde receives multiple business plans every week, about one-third of which are from Hong Kong entrepreneurial teams. Murong Zhihui, spokesman for Qianhai Houde Entrepreneurship Incubator, said. Wu Zhuoguang, founder of Hong Kong Kejun Team, said that in Qianhai, from project introduction to project implementation, there is basically not much that entrepreneurs need to worry about. It is almost like starting a business with a bag, and compared with Hong Kong, Qianhai is also easier to raise funds. As well as free venues, venture capital, entrepreneurial guidance and other preferential facilities and resources are very intensive. At present, DreamWorks, which has only been in operation for a few years, has already received a team of 100 million yuan in financing, and a Hong Kong entrepreneurial team has received more than 100 million yuan in financing, making it a new Silicon Valley for young entrepreneurs in Shenzhen and Hong Kong with dazzling results. However, compared with mature neighborhoods, Qianhai still has shortcomings in aspects such as transportation and life. In addition, many entrepreneurial teams expressed in interviews that they also hope that Qianhai can continue to build a long-term incentive mechanism that is in line with international standards, establish an entrepreneurial atmosphere that encourages and tolerates failure, and be more open and powerful in talent introduction, so that Qianhai can continue to build a long-term incentive mechanism that is in line with international standards. The cost of starting a business has been further reduced, making it truly a nationally renowned entrepreneurial paradise.
