I believe one (if not THE) most interesting aspect is all have connections / business:political / dealings with the China government. As we know, this is critical going forward.....and, Dr. Hu has assembled an A+ team !
Other than the COLTS offensive line & the COLTS entire D/FENCE..........I'd rank the BOA team for HRCT a strong 3rd !!!!!!!!!!
The more I look at these folks, it just seems that they are some of the biggest names in their fields..As Hrct moves forward, I can just imagine what doors might be opened to them because of this group...Incredible..jmo
