Tsinghua and Peking University were once called "the cradle of American talents" by netizens. Is it that students from Tsinghua and Peking University have gone abroad?
In fact, this is a fairly outrageous cognitive deviation.
Take the data released by Tsinghua University in 2023 as an example. The actual proportion of fresh abroad is only 8%, of which undergraduate students are 15.6%, and only 5.9%of the masters degree.
In other words, people who actually go out are much less than the Internet.
However, the proportion of not returning after going out is unknown, and Tsinghua University has not given corresponding statistics.
It is worth mentioning that most of the elites who stay in the United States are not back to the United States, or become the backbone of a local company, or the company that has founded Niuyu in the United States.
In the second quarter of 2024, IDC released the data ranking of global security network equipment suppliers, accounting for the 1/5 U.S. company Flying Tower network that accounts for 1/5 of the global market, which is a pair of Tsinghua UniversityFounded by Chinese brothers.
The Hurun Rich List shows that the two brothers totaling 67 billion in their total households, one American, and one of the Chinese rich people in the Pacific Ocean.
The two brothers are called Xie Qing and the other is Xie Hua.Essence
In fact, their parents are all faculty in Tsinghua. The two not only graduated from the school together, but also grew up in Tsinghua Garden since they were young.None of the hall of knowledge.
I just did not expect that after going abroad, it was rooted in the United States. The only imprint of the domestic in China was the Flying Tower Firewall they sold to domestic customers.
In 1981, 18 -year -old Xie Qing was admitted to the radio department of Tsinghua University with his outstanding achievements, and successfully obtained the qualifications of insurance research.
In the era when the radio talent was scarce, Xie Qing failed to participate in the domestic construction of the electronic industry in full swing.
Xie Qings original plan was that after reading the doctor to return to Tsinghua to teach, he did not think. The doctor at Stanford University did not finish reading, and went to the sea in the United States.
In 1992, Xie Qing and several like -minded friends co -founded Stanford Information Systems to deploy their independently developed firewall software to Silicon Valley technology companies.
Although this startup has not grown into an industry giant, it has accumulated valuable entrepreneurial experience and the first bucket of gold for Xie Qing, and let him buy a house in the United States.Set off home.
After Dr. graduated, Xie Qing did not rush to start a business again.The same Chinese students struggling in Silicon Valley have inspired his second entrepreneurial passion.
Of course, it is also Xie Qings familiar network security track.
In 1997, Xie Qing and the two international students joined hands to establish NetScreen to continue the field of firewalls, but this time they chose a chip firewall.
At the same time, his brother Xie Hua also embarked on the land in North America.
Xie Hua is six years younger than Xie Qing. He was admitted to the Department of Automobile Engineering of Tsinghua University in 1987 and studied all the way to graduation of a masters degree.
In 1994, he went to the Master of Electronic Engineering of the University of Manitoba, Canada. After graduation, he also devoted himself to the field of network security and joined Milkyway Networks in the United States.
In 1998, Xie Hua joined the NetScreen company founded by his brother to serve as CTO. He wrote his legend with the brother of the CEO together on the opposite side of the Pacific.
The brothers worked together to quickly develop new products and successfully invested.
However, with the addition of investors, the internal contradictions gradually appear, and the two brothers and investors have conflicts.As investors hold more equity, the two brothers gradually faded out of the management of NetScreen.
In 2001, when NetScreen was successfully listed, the brothers had quietly founded another company -Feita, focusing on the research and development of UTM (unified threat management) gateway.
This new product not only has the passive defense function of the traditional firewall, but also can actively filter the virus, leading the new trend of firewall technology.
In the financing arrangement, Xie Qing and Xie Hua learned the lesson of NetScreen, strictly controlling the shareholding ratio of venture capital companies, and introducedMany investors are decentralized.
This strategy enables them to firmly grasp the companys control and ensure that UTM technology products can grow and develop at the expected rhythm.
In 2009, in the context of the global financial crisis, Feitas successful listing was successfully listed, marking the official enters of the firewall technology into the UTM era.
Xie Qing is also known as the "father of UTM technology" and was selected as an academician of the National Academy of Engineering in 2013.
Feita has always regarded the Chinese market as an important strategic position. In 2011, Xie Qing and Xie Hua also donated a firewall device worth $ 2.61 million to Tsinghua University.In the same year, Xie Qing also accepted an exclusive interview with domestic media.
However, since then their domestic public business activities have gradually decreased.
In fact, with the changes in the international situation and the improvement of national security awareness, the share of foreign brands in the Chinese network security market is gradually shrinking.Wait for foreign brands to be spared.
The lesson of other countries tells us that national security must be in their hands, and local manufacturers such as Huawei have risen and have become an important force to maintain national network security.
However, even if it fades out of the Chinese market, Xie Qing and Xie Hua brothers do not lack business. The current share of Flying Tower is flat with Cisco, hovering in the first and secondbetween.
As long as the status of the United States remains unchanged, their market foundation has always been.
