Applying Economics, Sociology, and Management Theories to Drive the Rapid Development of SLKOR and Kinghelm!

While emerging technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) have advanced rapidly in recent years, they have yet to trigger a new "Kondratieff Cycle" capable of spurring large-scale economic growth. Geopolitical tensions, trade tariffs, and cutthroat competition in saturated markets have created a complex global landscape. In this environment of "intense rivalry," companies risk losing their foothold if they falter. Yet, amidst these challenges, SLKOR (www.slkoric.com) and Kinghelm (www.kinghelm.net) achieved an 80% compound growth rate in 2024, with their brands gaining international recognition.

Mr. Song Shiqiang, the visionary leader behind both companies, is a grassroots economist and researcher of "Huaqiangbei Culture." He integrates macroeconomic theories—particularly those of the Austrian School—into practical management. Song embraces Joseph Schumpeter’s emphasis on "human innovation," Friedrich Hayek and Ludwig von Mises’ advocacy for "trust in markets," Adam Smith’s principles of "division of labor and free exchange," Max Weber’s "organizational systematization," and Peter Drucker’s insights into managing "knowledge workers." These philosophies form the foundation of SLKOR and Kinghelm’s explosive growth.

Schumpeter, Hayek, Mises, Smith, and Other Pioneers

I. Joseph Schumpeter’s Innovation Theory in Practice

Joseph Schumpeter posited that innovation—recombining production factors with new technologies, ideas, and methods—drives efficiency, quality, and economic gains. For resource-constrained SMEs, innovation is survival. In China, grassroots and SME innovations account for 90% of national progress. At SLKOR and Kinghelm, innovation manifests in three areas: technology, management, and incentives, e.g. weekly "Innovation Star" awards foster a culture of creativity.

Kinghelm’s overseas marketing team, led by Director Qiu, hosts daily "English Corner" sessions in the office garden, paired with Luckin Coffee, rapidly enhancing language skills and market readiness.

Initiatives like the "Spring Festival Essay Contest," "Hometown Food Festival," and "One-on-One Mentorship" align with the companies’ strategy of leveraging new technologies, materials, products, models, channels, and tools.

Innovation is non-negotiable for growth. Companies like Apple, Samsung, Huawei, SLKOR, and Kinghelm thrive by continuously evolving. Apple and Samsung, for example, compete fiercely in patents and markets while collaborating on components. In 2011, Apple sued Samsung for $2.5 billion over design patents, yet Samsung later supplied millions of OLED screens for iPhones. Conversely, Intel’s stagnation—due to strategic missteps like rejecting Apple’s iPhone chip request in 2006 and underinvesting in GPU R&D—led to its decline, culminating in a reported 50% workforce reduction plan for 2025.

SLKOR and Kinghelm prioritize rapid commercialization of innovations. Recent examples include Kinghelm’s high-speed signal connectors and SLKOR’s SL4054 lithium battery charging solutions, adopted by European clients within months of launch.

II. Adam Smith’s Division of Labor and Exchange

Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations attributes prosperity to specialization and free exchange. Specialization boosts efficiency exponentially, while free trade incentivizes further division of labor and technological advancement.

Smith’s pin factory analogy illustrates this: dividing pin-making into 18 specialized steps allowed a 10-worker team to produce 48,000 pins daily—a thousandfold increase. Similarly, SLKOR and Kinghelm optimize workflows through modular, standardized processes. Friedrich Hayek’s emphasis on "knowledge division" and price-driven coordination aligns with this approach, informing the companies’ incentive structures.

III. Max Weber and Peter Drucker: Organizational Excellence

Effective leadership hinges on organizational design. Max Weber’s bureaucratic theory ensures precision and reliability, while Peter Drucker’s focus on "effective management" maximizes productivity.

1. Organizational Formalization, Professionalization, and Processization. Max Weber emphasized the systematization of organizational administration to ensure accuracy, stability, and reliability in work outcomes. At Kinghelm and SLKOR, each position and department requires different knowledge and skills. By aligning these capabilities with tasks and reinforcing collaboration through systems and processes, goals can be achieved more quickly. Napoleon, the French emperor, wrote: "Two Mamluk soldiers can defeat three French soldiers, one hundred French soldiers are evenly matched with one hundred Mamluks, but one thousand French soldiers can always defeat fifteen hundred Mamluks." Napoleon pointed out that while Mamluk cavalry were highly skilled in horsemanship and combat, the French cavalry's discipline and organizational strength, combined with teamwork, formed a powerful fighting force. Management, organization, discipline, and collaboration are the guarantees of victory!

Weber’s administrative frameworks are mirrored in SLKOR and Kinghelm’s matrix-based, data-driven operations. Communication rules—such as text-only messaging in WeChat groups, precise meeting notices (e.g., "R&D team meeting in 15 minutes"), and mandatory feedback loops—enhance efficiency. Team-building activities like hiking, sports, and KTV sessions foster camaraderie, translating to better workplace collaboration.

Drucker’s Effective Management:

Talent is Kinghelm and SLKOR’s greatest asset. The companies invest in training, industry engagement, and Pareto Principle-driven prioritization (focusing on the 20% of tasks yielding 80% of results). Advanced tools, ergonomic offices with green spaces, and a culture of respect and innovation keep teams motivated.

Performance is incentivized through quantifiable rewards (e.g., 1,000 RMB bonuses for solving critical technical issues) and third-party audits to ensure fairness. Aligning individual and corporate goals—as Sun Tzu’s "unity of purpose leads to victory" advises—fuels collective success.

IV. Entrepreneurial Spirit and Beyond

Austrian School economists like Ludwig von Mises champion "entrepreneurial spirit"—the drive to innovate, take risks, and adapt. SLKOR and Kinghelm’s 30-year strategic vision, ecosystem-building, and "benchmarking" practices (e.g., Huawei’s "Five Views and Three Determinations") reflect this ethos. Methods like "full-capacity workflows" and PDCA cycles (Plan-Do-Check-Act) further refine their unique management style.

Kinghelm Development Milestones

Leveraging their official websites—which attract 200,000 daily visitors—and a global e-commerce matrix, SLKOR and Kinghelm serve as platforms for employee, client, and industry engagement. Their overseas sites also promote Chinese culture and semiconductor advancements, bolstering the "SLKOR" and "Kinghelm" brands as global ambassadors of quality.
