there is a man in the mirror. he is chinese, from a humble family. he has his own place. he works out, and rolls his own cigarettes. he just finished a 14 hour work day. he closed business deals by meeting vendors that sold hardware in markets, walking around and giving out business cards. he does all of his own accounting, design, ML, software, customer service, and manufacturing. the manufacturing happens in his tiny apartment. his cost per unit is 100 times smaller than yours. his funding? non existent. when he needs help, he hits up his cousins on wechat. he's going to outcompete you in your home country, selling his units on etsy farmers in ohio are going to buy his drones yacine is going to buy his custom split keyboards american manufacturers are going to buy his 3d printers and rightly so because you aren't half of the man in the mirror
