The inventor of the world's first USB flash drive.
Deng Guoshun 65438-0967 was born in a poor peasant family in Shimen County. Since he was sensible, he knew that studying hard was the only way to change his destiny. Therefore, he has never given up since he was a child.
65438-0985, Deng Guoshun was admitted to Sun Yat-sen University to study computer application software. After graduating from college, the famous Wanbao refrigerator factory hired him.

1999 It was a very accidental opportunity that he met John Cheng, a native of Hunan, in Singapore. The two hit it off and talked about a topic of common interest: the whole machine is constantly upgrading from the main version, CPU to mouse and keyboard, but the floppy drive has been stubborn for many years and has always been a standard configuration. Can you abandon the floppy drive and make a small, stable, mobile storage with a capacity many times larger than that of ordinary floppy disks? They are excited about the idea! After 32-year-old Deng Guo returned from Singapore, John Cheng developed a revolutionary product-U disk, which replaced the traditional floppy disk. Deng Guoshun applied for more than 150 patents for USB flash drive alone.
Do it! Deng Guoshun and John Cheng gave up the attractive treatment abroad, resolutely returned to China, rented a house in Luohu District, Shenzhen, and began to attack a completely strange field without any ready-made products for reference.
