  • Gree Electric Appliances: Defense Department Scrutinizing Visit by Chinese Company’S Representatives to U.S
    Vol. 7 No. 112 April 10, 2019 Gree Electric Appliances: Defense Department Scrutinizing Visit by Chinese Company’s Representatives to U.S. Chipmaker A visit to a Florida industrial park last year by executives of Chinese-owned Gree Electric Appliances (SHE: 000651) has triggered espionage concerns at the Defense Department and one of its contractors, highlighting the growing strains Chinese companies face in seeking to expand in the U.S. During the visit, Andrew Lo, Gree American’s commercial air conditioning agent, made an unannounced stop in the lobby of a building that houses computer chipmaker Bridg. The drop-in, which occurred as the Chinese executives were on a tour of a high-tech park project led by Osceola County, Florida Commissioner Peggy Choudhry, alarmed Bridg CEO Chester Kennedy. Bridg, which specializes in microelectronics, optics and photonics, had recently struck its first contract with DOD. Now, DOD is “working with the appropriate government agencies” to look into the November 26, 2018 visit by officials of Zhuhai-based Gree, said department spokesperson Lt. Col. Mike Andrews, declining to name the other agencies. Bridg is also a business partner of Harris Corporation, the Melbourne, Florida-based defense contractor that makes night vision goggles and tactical radios. Gree, China’s largest manufacturer of home air conditioners, launched a smartphone business in 2016 and a chip design subsidiary in August 2018. Led by Dong Mingzhu, known as the “Iron Lady” of Chinese business for her meteoric rise from saleswoman to executive, the company is valued at $42 billion on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange and generates $29 billion in annual revenue, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
