Not sure.
I do think that ( as you have mentioned ) Lugee was never "really" a CEO of Lqmt, he just took the role after firing Steipp.
At this point I believe Lugee has completed his initial "long game" plan of building his vertical BMG infrastructure in China, raw materials, IM machine production and contract manufacturers and is NOW READY for prime time global production( or extremely close to it).
He is pulling away from LQMT USA to let Tony/Bresnick handle the light-work of handling orders for big customers that Lugee has negotiated with, as well as, continuing to pursue small/medium sized medical customers.
