Yes absolutely Li will run as much as he can through LQMT.

Li has 415m indirect LQMT shares and options held on behalf of Eontec shareholders, and he personally holds 1,360,150 direct shares.

When LQMT becomes profitable so will his Eontec shareholders, Thats the motivation part.
The legal part is the cross license deal that gives LQMT territorial rights to Eontec IP.
So Li has no choice but to run Eontec’s Mg/Al/BMG through LQMT.

Another thing to consider, LQMT share price will explode when Li runs Mg/Al/BMG through LiquidMetal instead of Eontec. His returns will be exponential greater through LQMT compared to Eontec.

With Li holding 46% of LQMT’s outstanding shares, he and Eontec shareholders will reap near half of all LQMT’s success.

For at least the past decade or so, it has become quite popular for Chinese corporations to hire random professional-looking Americans to simply stand silently in a room during business meetings. Supposedly even faking the appearance of American collaborators lends a great deal of clout to their side of negotiations.

Perhaps Lugee Li simply wants Liquidmetal Technologies to be his "White Guy in a Tie", as they're called.

Some light reading on the phenomenon...

Of course, since he is also heavily invested in our company, he will want to build up some genuine power behind the name. We will be far more than just a facade. And that will very good for us.
