Like all universities in the country, Guangzhou's South China Institute of Technology (renamed South China University of Technology in 1988) also welcomed the first batch of students after the resumption of the college entrance examination. The radio class classrooms were filled with students, and the students looked at each other with curious eyes. The oldest among them is 40 years old, and the youngest is only 18 years old. Among them, three students of similar age are very good. Chen Weirong, the youngest, is from Luoding County, Guangdong, and two more than one year older than him, Huang Hongsheng and Li Dongsheng, from Wuzhishan and Huizhou, Hainan respectively. Their classmates later recalled: "Huang Hongsheng is the oldest, the elder brother of the whole class, and he takes care of his juniors in the school. Chen Weirong walked into the classroom wearing liberation shoes with big toes exposed. He was the class monitor. He spent almost all of them in the library during the four years he was in school. Li Dongsheng is a study committee member in the class. He is very introverted and doesn't like to play with other classmates, especially when he sees girls, he will blush. Therefore, some female classmates don't call his name clearly when they graduate." These three people later founded three color TV companies, Konka, Skyworth and TCL. At its peak, the color TV production of these three companies accounted for 40% of the total national output.
