Lin: The mystery of true and false directors of technology companies

On the corporate registration information of the Taiwan authorities, the name of the board of Directors of the British Kang Wei Technology Co., Ltd. in the 49th issue of 2013, "Yellow Gun Investigation" column reported "Lin, science and technology to the people or" scientific and technological blind "after a large response, lasted two months there are still many fans of Lin of this newspaper report dissatisfaction, To Lin a technology company director "firmly believe". So why is Lin's technology company director's identity a mystery? Director of Invista Science and technology In many personal profiles, such as Wikipedia, Lin has a brilliant history of "founding a technology company at 26", but in other public and exclusive interviews, he has repeatedly said that he has even "held a remote meeting every day to deal with Taipei's company" in order to make a film in the mainland. "But strangely, he has never publicly indicated the name of his technology company." So the name of Lin, a technology company founded at the age of 26, has become an uncertain secret. At present, about Lin at the age of 26 founded the Science and technology company has two versions, one is the previous newspaper detailed report "New net information", according to the reporter investigates its legal person and the Chairman surname Hemp, and Lin has no relation; and another version is the latest version is the British Wei Kang Technology Co., Ltd. January 26, the reporter log in to the official website, the home is a few large "God shield protection system" and a flash style product picture, the product picture above has "4GB, smartkey" words. From the reporter's understanding of the situation, this is also the company's website to launch the only product, in the product column, in addition to "corporate, government agencies, schools," "PDF file Download Instructions" and a "SmartKey won the United States patent" picture, there is no other IT product introduction, and PDF can not download. "This is the product of the God Shield launched by Xiao Zhi technology company. "In letters, a netizen who calls himself Lin Fan said to reporters. According to Lin October 2013 in the interview with the Beijing News, "God shield" U disk dedicated monitoring computer, can prevent the data stolen. "If I am the boss, I can always see all your browsing records, typing records, even the computer screen." "Evolution of the Company" on the official website of the Invista, the reporter saw the following introduction: (The company) was founded in September 2000, Chairman Lin Jianzhi, director Lin with a group of like-minded students and friends set up, the company set up early focus on military target systems, monitoring system integration and project software and hardware design integrator- This is the only time the company has mentioned Lin in all its information. Company is located in Taipei City, in recent years, the company to change the runway focus on computer-funded protection system, the company's Shield SmartKey protection system in January 2013 to obtain the United States patents, products widely used, including applications in the server, NB, desktop computers, enterprises, government agencies, family individuals. "SmartKey is the ' smart key ', an RFID product, a security comparisonHigh non-contact automatic identification technology. "A senior IT staff told reporters that SmartKey in many areas has long been used, but also by Google and even many manufacturers such as Millet, the company's products is actually a USB form of electronic keys, even if the electronic key to monitor the staff computer technology is not advanced, It is also necessary to verify whether a U.S. patent is actually obtained. Unable to find the "director" in fact, the company's access to U.S. patents is equally doubtful. First, the company's official website announced the "won the United States Patent" picture, unexpectedly no patent number, the second is a reporter to visit the United States Patent inquiry system for inquiries, the same query not to the British-Wei Kang "Intelligent system Protection Lock (smart Key)" access to the United States patent related situation. Also interesting is that all the media news, in addition to an article from the June 11, 2013 Taiwan "Business Times" report, the remaining records of the 10 reports are from the same media "economic daily", the report time is January 6, 2013 to January 24, 2014, the interview is the same person , the reporter research found that the above report title is almost all "smartkey, enterprise Business Information Integration Tool", are the company's promotional contributions, and the article spans a year long content is similar, according to normal media reports, can be identified as "soft wen." The most important question, then, is whether Lin is really a director of the company. The answer is to be found in the registration information of the authorities in Taiwan, where key information, such as corporate information, founder and board members, is required to be registered with the Business division of the Taiwan Authority's economic department so that anyone can inquire about the authenticity of the business. According to the results of a query sent by a netizen in Taiwan, in the Department of Economic Affairs of Taiwan authorities, the information is indeed found that the British legal representative for Lin Jianzhi, the registered capital of NT $5 million, the registration time of September 30, 2000-This is the Lin publicly announced the 26-Year-old established technology company time. However, in the information column of the Board of Directors, it is clearly shown that the Chairman of the company is Lin Jianzhi, the directors are Xu Yinyi, Hou Zong Yiu, the monitoring is Lin Jianquan and the number of shares held is 408500,50000, 31500 and 10,000 respectively. From this point of view, the company at the board level and Lin have no relationship. In the 10 reports of the economic daily, no mention was made of Lin. "There is another situation where it is possible to be an honorary director. A securities analyst told reporters but according to the existing material analysis, whether Lin really founded a technology company, whether it is really a technology company boss or director, this need Lin himself's explanation, it seems very difficult to convince people, as a public star, Lin has the responsibility to explain this in detail.
