To strengthen interaction between companies, deepen supply chain partnerships, and boost team cohesion and competitiveness, on September 5, Slkor Semiconductor’s (www.slkoric.com) "Warriors" basketball team and the Shared Procurement Alliance jointly held a friendship basketball match in Longgang District, Shenzhen. Slkor General Manager Song Shiqiang and Shared Procurement Alliance President Chen Xuepeng attended the event and led their teams. Players from both sides left it all on the court and traded skills. Slkor Warriors Basketball Team vs. Shared Procurement Alliance Team The game began at 4 p.m. As soon as the whistle blew, the atmosphere was electric. On offense, players on both sides were quick and well coordinated, executing fast breaks, drives, and decisive shots with clean, crisp movements. On defense, they stayed focused, jockeyed for position, rotated promptly to help, and battled hard for rebounds. Fast breaks, pick-and-rolls, and give-and-go plays produced plenty of exciting possessions, and both teams settled into their own rhythm. The game was fast-paced throughout, with both sides trading blows and refusing to give an inch. The Shared Procurement Alliance team gradually took control with cohesive teamwork and a steady rhythm on both ends. The Slkor Warriors, led by Chen Suwei, played fearlessly and kept chasing, causing plenty of trouble with several sharp fast breaks and rebounds. They embodied the "wolf-pack team" spirit and fighting determination that Song Shiqiang, general manager of Kinghelm (www.kinghelm.net) and Slkor (www.slkomicro.com), emphasizes in daily work. In the end, the Shared Procurement Alliance won with the higher score. During the match, General Manager Song Shiqiang also took the court, running hard and playing with full commitment. Slkor and Kinghelm have always valued employees’ lives outside work and encourage everyone to exercise more and maintain a healthy work-life balance. The companies regularly organize badminton, basketball, hiking, and other activities. This basketball game also showcased the Slkor team’s drive and focus. Just as in making products and serving customers, everyone stays in their position and does what needs to be done well. Shenzhen Slkor Semiconductor Co., Ltd. traces its technology to Tsinghua University in Beijing and Yonsei University in South Korea, and it has mastered core technologies for silicon carbide power devices. Slkor has grown into a high-tech enterprise integrating design and R&D, manufacturing, and sales and service. Its Slkor brand is widely recognized by industry peers and customers. Slkor is a national high-tech enterprise and has obtained ISO 9000 certification, as well as European RoHS and REACH certifications. Slkor develops and manufactures SiC MOSFETs, high-, medium-, and low-voltage field-effect transistors, silicon controlled rectifiers, bridge rectifiers, Schottky, ESD, and TVS diodes, along with power management ICs, Hall sensors, optocouplers, crystal oscillators, and other products. These products are widely used in new energy vehicles, communications and power equipment, solar photovoltaics, medical care, mobile phones, computers, robotics, smart homes, the Internet of Things, LED lighting, 3C digital products, and other industries. Slkor upholds a corporate culture of integrity, continuous improvement, resilience, and attention to detail, and continues to develop new technologies and launch new products to create value for employees, customers, and society. Slkor (www.slkoric.com) has grown rapidly in recent years. Its third directly operated store in Huaqiangbei opened on August 14, 2026, at Shop N1A001-002, Phase 2, New Asia Electronic Mall. The store was jointly created by Slkor and Su Xinfan, known as "Zhixin Su Ge" ("Chip-Savvy Brother Su"), of Dream Chaser (Shenzhen) Sensor Technology Co., Ltd., and it is the first physical store under their partnership. After the match, the two teams had dinner together near the gym, chatting over the meal in a relaxed atmosphere. A basketball game is both a test of physical stamina and a bridge for emotional connection between a company and its partners. As a member of the Shared Procurement Alliance, Slkor (www.Slkorimicro.com) had previously hosted the alliance twice at its headquarters for training and exchange activities. This friendly match brought the two sides even closer. Chen Xuepeng, president of the Shared Procurement Alliance, said that since its founding in 2007, the alliance has always been committed to connecting procurement professionals with resources free of charge, empowering their ongoing growth, cultivating deep roots in the procurement community, and supporting countless procurement practitioners as they grow. It also consistently takes procurement people to the front lines of factories, where they can see for themselves—through process flows, materials and craftsmanship, and production details—how a product goes from raw material to finished product. "You can only negotiate cost when you understand the process; you can only control quality when you truly know the workflow." That is the empowerment philosophy the alliance upholds. Because it is genuine, practical, and altruistic, the alliance’s events are often oversubscribed. Factory visits planned for 20–25 people often attract more than 40 procurement professionals, which speaks volumes about the industry’s urgent demand for hands-on learning and frontline growth. In the future, Kinghelm and Slkor will continue to hold exchange activities in various forms, maintain close communication with partners, and work together to advance coordinated development across the ecosystem. As Kinghelm and Slkor integrate into the ecosystem, Kinghelm-brand products such as tactile switches, detection switches, slide switches, push-button switches, micro switches, multi-function switches, illuminated switches, DIP switches, toggle switches, earphone jacks, DC jacks, FPC connectors, USB connectors, waterproof USB connectors, sensing switches, limit switches, encoder switches, tactile pushbuttons, Kinghelm-brand Type female sockets, Type-C interfaces, joystick switches, five-key switches, thumbwheel switches, SMD detection switches, vertical detection switches, through-hole detection switches, SMD encoder switches, KH-IPEX-K501-29, KH-6X6X5H-STM, KH-6X6X5H-Z2J, KH-SMA-P-8029, KH-3216-H0209, and other products are selling well in the market. Whether it is teamwork on the court or partnership in business, both come down to trust and rapport—something Slkor has always valued and cherished.

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. Photo: Taken at Huaqiangbei Museum 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.
