This is how China makes technological “progress.”
I am SURROUNDED by Chinese foreign nationals having ANCHOR BABIES all around me and I see NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT EITHER.
Oh, and WHAT ABOUT BRUCE OHR????
Stole Noodles from the Japanese ,probably ,LOL
Perhaps US tech companies should do Chinese incorporation checks on their Chinese employees entrusted with trade secrets if it is legal to do so.
Perhaps the lie detector has a future too.
Tuition:
You get smarter, but have to pay.
GSK just paid some tuition.
Did they get smarter?
I have my doubts.
Defense contractors DO THIS A LOT.
Who in their right mind would expose their technological secrets to chinese nationals in their company.
Back from when I was in the USA:
**stem cell company name redacted** let me go, I needed a job.
Right over the San Mateo bridge (sort of a marsh, with a huge bottling plant) there was a tiny China outfit doing stem cell stuff.
Applied, got called in, interviewed.
The Chinese lady interviewing me had been at UCSF, we started rapping all about UCSF. I was describing the work of an amazing lab I’d often visit, I knew a nice guy from Japan there.
I described their new culture technique in general terms:
The interviewer (from China) whipped out her pen, hovered it over paper and told me to tell her the COMPONENTS OF THEIR SERUM..!
By serum I mean the “cooking recipe” of what goes into the liquid that they use to culture their cells —incredibly valuable info.
Can you believe that..?
I mean with the pen and everything, ready to copy, not batting an eyelash.
It’s like they equate copywatches or Polo shirts to life-saving therapies —to them, the same, equally fair game.
I was amazed, and everywhere I later recounted that there was 100% outrage paired with 0% surprise.
Maybe she is an H1B employee, so GSK just figures a little international espionage is a fair price to pay for saving $50,000 per year over an American employees paycheck.
Bump
what’s the fuss? All she wanted was to break her NDA and get her life back so she could tell her story and profit from it.
