Mr. Li has solved the chicken/egg conundrum that Tommy boy wasn't smart enough to overcome.

Tommy boy expected customers to invest heavily in unproven technology based on hope and happy talk. Exactly the same strategy he used with shareholders. I think it's all he knew. And, he was never interested in doing real work. Leave that drudgery to Apple and Engel.

Mr. Li is ramping up real production technology to be able to handle real orders. Customers are no longer expected to pay up front and hope. They will see real capability and eagerly pay for real results.

Mr. Li is the real deal and knows how to get the job done. Things will be very different in 6 to 9 months.

Adding my own conjecture/hope, Li’s lqmt investment would be even more profitable if lqmt manufactured CE components using generic BMG, But that would be subject to the legal babble of the the TTA and MTA, with the capture period and auto renewal it confuses as to if or when the EON BMG can be used for manufacturing by lqmt without having it assigned/lost to CIP and hence Apple.

No doubt those issues were all hashed out before the Lugee deal closed. Apple wouldn't give Lugee and Eon access to all that information if it wasn't negotiated and discussed - in long lengths of time - before this deal closed.

We all know Lugee didn't buy into LQMT because of management and employees. He bought in because of CIP, the name, and whatever access he needed to Apple.
