It will take three to four years for Zhongguancun to truly become lively. At the time when Chen Chunxian established the service department, it caused a great shock both inside and outside the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and almost everyone believed that he was not doing his job properly. At this time, Chen Chunxian, who came from Bashu, showed the stubbornness unique to Sichuan people. He rode his bicycle around to run business, and this scientist who studied the difficult nuclear fusion technology had to make a "rice straw plan" for the survival of 15 people. In the first year of entrepreneurship, his service department earned over 20000 yuan in income, which was not a small amount at the time. As a result, Chen Chunxian gave everyone a monthly allowance of 15 yuan. This incident caused a huge uproar in the impoverished Chinese Academy of Sciences. The person who complained angrily said that Chen Chun had engaged in unethical practices and had actually given himself two levels of salary. By 1983, Chen Chunxian had signed 27 contracts and established technical cooperation relationships with four collectively owned small factories in Haidian District. He also helped create the Haidian New Technology Experimental Factory and three technical service institutions in Haidian District. Gradually, sporadic small technology companies emerged in the Zhongguancun area. Under media coverage, Chen Chunxian's practice attracted attention from the upper echelons, and Hu Qili and Fang Yi, who were in charge of economic work at the time, gave instructions and highly praised him. Under the influence of these measures, Haidian District relaxed the policy of establishing companies in Zhongguancun. In 1984, companies such as Sitong, Xintong, Kehai, and the famous Lenovo were successively born, and the "Zhongguancun Electronic Street" began to take shape.
