【故事】唐国海：“中国电动家居之父” 用数字科技改变睡眠

一、一个有着超级梦想的技术狂人

1968年，在“上山下乡”政策号召下，唐国海把人生中最好的学习阶段奉献在了农田陇上。做了几年农活后，小小年纪的唐国海发现，要创造财富单靠农活是远远不够的，于是忙里偷闲，他默默自学了机械理论和手工知识。

1978年，唐国海告别农村，到了当时的嘉兴市人民防空办公室工作。唐国海的技术创新能力，被很好地用在挖掘防空洞上。他和同事们花了差不多2年时间，手工制作出了一个3.2米直径，有1200吨推进力，可以持续浇灌钢筋混凝土环层的盾构机，得到了多方赞赏。

乘着改革开放的浪潮，作为最早一批“打工人”的唐国海到了乡办企业工作，帮助制造机床。凭借爱动脑、肯吃苦的精神，他把工作做得风生水起。企业改制后，唐国海凭借着自学、上电大，日积月累的知识和技术经验，研发制造民用汽车，与当地汽车研究院、设计院接触后，果然争取到了一些机会和资金，并在嘉兴成立汽车研究公司。1998年，唐国海联合来自美国、新加坡的投资方，耗费4年投入1亿元，研发出了2.2升排量的汽车。通过了国家相关技术认证，可惜进不了生产目录，最终无法取得生产牌照。

尽管造车梦受阻，但唐国海始终没有停下脚步。这10年奋斗中付出的青春与汗水，让他的梦想一点点接近现实。

二、做中国智能家居的领跑者

“哪里摔倒就从哪里重新站起来！”“不怕输”是唐国海成功的第二个秘诀。1999年，唐国海前往美国寻找新的投资机会。他敏锐地发现电动家居正在兴起，而自己原来的机电技术完全适用于电动家居。于是，他卖掉房子，再次开始技术创业——研发制造电动沙发。至此，唐国海的创业梦想也迎来新曙光。 CXO UNION-CXO联盟（cxounion.cn）

看似简单的电动家居并不简单，其中涉及众多机电控制器件，技术较为复杂。为了改进技术，唐国海天天埋头在车间里做试验，经过一年时间才研发成功。

那时的电动椅是唐国海理想的启蒙载体，正是从那一刻起，他的内心燃烧起一个梦想——做中国智能家居的领跑者。此后，唐国海便重新开始了一段冒险历程，他用在汽车上的对技术的狂热之爱，终于找到了一个出口喷薄而出，把所有技术经验都运用到了电动家居产品的研发上。

2002年，唐国海将美国500强企业——礼恩派集团引进王江泾镇，与美国人合作研发生产家具驱动系统。2005年，唐国海开启了自己的智能床制造之路，完成从各类核心配件到最终完整产品的丰满架构，并逐步将企业发展成为中国生产线性驱动器的龙头企业、国家级高新技术企业，快速打开了美国市场，产品出口率也大幅攀升，在全球市场占有重要份额。

坚持高质量发展，节约能源，提高效率是不断提升企业竞争力的关键。唐国海深知，产业的高质量发展，离不开数字化这把“金钥匙”。2018年，麒盛科技投入建造一期占地200亩年产200万张智能电动床的智能工厂，2020年投入生产，采用智能化生产线，集设备自动化、工艺流程优化、信息化集成、自动化仓储规划等，提高生产效率50%、节约能源20%、产品不良率降低50%。做到真正的智能制造，减少环境污染。

如今，麒盛科技作为世界上最大的智能电动床制造商之一，拥有840多项专利，其中发明专利130多项。公司在全球的电动床销量超过800万张，主要销往北美和欧洲市场。 CXO UNION-CXO联盟（cxounion.cn）

三、为中国健康事业和睡眠产业发展贡献力量

对于未来规划，除了在传统渠道上的开拓，唐国海将目光放在了养老、医疗、高端商业等项目的合作上。他梦想依托城市睡眠中心战略，实现从渠道到社会、从城市到国家的智能健康睡眠全覆盖。

为此，麒盛科技与嘉兴政府正合作打造“中国睡谷”，以培育发展睡眠智能家居制造产业。“中国睡谷”将汇聚海内外睡眠大健康领域的院士专家，开展重大课题攻关，突破前沿核心技术，聚焦睡眠大健康领域前沿科技的睡眠科技研究院，以及实现基础研究、临床应用、新药研发高效连接的睡眠健康医学院。在这样一个完整闭环的健康睡眠产业生态里，一方面会吸引更多的人才投身到睡眠科技产业中来，另一方面也能够带动现有企业朝着智能化、数字化方向转型，实现整个健康睡眠产业的高质量发展。 CXO UNION-CXO联盟（cxounion.cn）

养老也是麒盛科技重点探索的应用场景之一。早在2020年，麒盛科技便与嘉兴秀洲区合作，打造了“居家养医护”模式试点，并在当地投入500张智能床提供给60岁到90岁的老人，该举措也让秀洲区入选2021年全国智慧健康养老示范基地。

2022年北京冬奥会，麒盛科技为冬奥村供应了近7000张专为运动员定制打造的智能电动床。运动员入住后，这款黑科技产品迅速火出圈，向世界彰显了“中国智造”的强大力量。

近年来，唐国海带领企业加强党组织建设活动，积极履行社会责任，2007年以来，企业先后为地方环保、慈善总会、红十字会、西部偏远地区小学、贫困人群等捐赠数百万元。

这位在商海沉浮了30多年、见证了中国改革开放历史进程的企业家创业奋斗的经历，展现了浙商所具有的精神特质：坚忍不拔，敢为人先，兴业报国，诚信守法…… CXO UNION-CXO联盟（cxounion.cn）

Tang Guohai: “The father of China’s electric home” changes sleep with digital technology

A tech geek with a big dream

In 1968, under the call of the policy of “going up the mountain to the countryside”, Tang Guohai devoted the best learning stage of his life to the farmland. After doing farm work for a few years, the young Tang Guohai found that it was far from enough to create wealth by farm work alone, so he took time off and silently taught himself mechanical theory and manual knowledge.

In 1978, Tang Guohai bid farewell to the countryside and went to work in the Civil Air Defense Office of Jiaxing City at that time. Tang Guohai’s technological innovation ability has been well used in digging bomb shelters. He and his colleagues spent almost two years to handmade a 3.2 meter diameter, 1200 tons of propulsion, can continuously pour reinforced concrete ring layer shield machine, which has been praised by many. CXO UNION-CXO联盟（cxounion.cn）

Riding the wave of reform and opening up, as one of the earliest “migrant workers” Tang Guohai went to work in township enterprises to help manufacture machine tools. With his love of brain and willingness to endure hardships, he did his work well. After the restructuring of the enterprise, Tang Guohai by virtue of self-study, TV university, accumulated knowledge and technical experience, R & D and manufacture of civilian automobiles, and after contact with the local automobile research institute and design institute, as expected, won some opportunities and funds, and set up an automobile research company in Jiaxing. In 1998, Tang Guohai, together with investors from the United States and Singapore, spent four years and invested 100 million yuan to develop a 2.2-liter car. Passed the relevant national technical certification, but it is a pity that it cannot enter the production catalog and ultimately cannot obtain a production license.

Although the car building dream was blocked, Tang Guohai never stopped. The youth and sweat paid in the 10 years of struggle have made his dream little by little closer to reality.

To be the leader of China’s smart home

“Where you fall, you stand up again!” “Not afraid to lose” is Tang Guohai’s second secret of success. In 1999, Tang Guohai went to the United States to look for new investment opportunities. He was keen to find that electric homes were on the rise, and his original electromechanical technology was perfectly suitable for electric homes. So he sold his house and started his tech business again – developing and manufacturing electric sofas. At this point, Tang Guohai’s entrepreneurial dream also ushered in a new dawn. CXO UNION-CXO联盟（cxounion.cn）

Seemingly simple electric home is not simple, which involves many electromechanical control devices, the technology is more complex. In order to improve the technology, Tang Guohai every day immersed in the workshop to do experiments, after a year to develop successfully.

At that time, the electric chair was Tang Guohai’s ideal enlightenment carrier, and it was from that moment on that his heart burned a dream – to be the leader of China’s smart home. Since then, Tang Guohai has re-started a journey of adventure, he used the fanatical love of technology in the car, finally found an outlet, and applied all technical experience to the research and development of electric home products.

In 2002, Tang Guohai introduced Lienpai Group, a top 500 enterprise in the United States, to Wangjiangjing Town and cooperated with Americans to develop and produce furniture drive systems. In 2005, Tang Guohai opened its own intelligent bed manufacturing road, completed the full structure from all kinds of core accessories to the final complete product, and gradually developed the enterprise into a leading enterprise in the production of linear drives in China and a national high-tech enterprise, quickly opened the US market, and the export rate of products also rose sharply, occupying an important share in the global market.

Adhering to high-quality development, saving energy and improving efficiency are the key to continuously improve the competitiveness of enterprises. Tang Guohai knows that the high-quality development of the industry cannot be separated from the “golden key” of digitalization. In 2018, Qisheng Technology invested in the construction of a smart factory with an annual output of 2 million smart electric beds covering an area of 200 acres, which will be put into production in 2020, using intelligent production lines, equipment automation, process optimization, information integration, automated storage planning, etc., to improve production efficiency by 50%, save energy by 20%, and reduce product defective rate by 50%. To achieve real intelligent manufacturing, reduce environmental pollution.

Today, Qisheng Technology is one of the world’s largest intelligent electric bed manufacturers, with more than 840 patents, including more than 130 invention patents. The company has sold more than 8 million electric beds worldwide, mainly to North America and Europe.

To contribute to the development of China’s health and sleep industry

For the future planning, in addition to the development of traditional channels, Tang Guohai will focus on the cooperation of pension, medical care, high-end business and other projects. He dreams of relying on the urban sleep center strategy to achieve full coverage of smart and healthy sleep from channels to society, from cities to countries. CXO UNION-CXO联盟（cxounion.cn）

To this end, Qisheng Technology and the Jiaxing government are cooperating to create “China Sleep Valley” to cultivate and develop the sleep smart home manufacturing industry. “China Sleep Valley” will bring together academicians and experts in the field of sleep health at home and abroad to carry out major topics, break through cutting-edge core technologies, focus on the sleep technology research institute of cutting-edge technology in the field of sleep health, and realize the efficient connection of basic research, clinical application, and new drug research and development of sleep health medical school. In such a complete closed-loop healthy sleep industry ecology, on the one hand, it will attract more talents to join the sleep technology industry, on the other hand, it can also drive the existing enterprises to transform in the direction of intelligence and digitalization, and achieve the high-quality development of the entire healthy sleep industry.

Old-age care is also one of the application scenarios that Qisheng Technology focuses on exploring. As early as 2020, Qisheng Technology cooperated with Jiaxing Xiuzhou District to create a “home care” model pilot, and invested 500 smart beds in the local area to provide elderly people aged 60 to 90 years old, which also made Xiuzhou District selected as the national smart health pension demonstration base in 2021. CXO UNION-CXO联盟（cxounion.cn）

For the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, Qisheng Technology supplied nearly 7,000 smart electric beds customized for athletes to the Winter Olympic Village. After the athletes moved in, this black technology product quickly came out of the circle, demonstrating to the world the powerful power of “Chinese intelligence”.

In recent years, Tang Guohai has led the enterprise to strengthen Party organization construction activities and actively fulfill social responsibilities. Since 2007, the enterprise has donated millions of yuan to local environmental protection, charity Federation, Red Cross Society, primary schools in remote areas in western China, and poor people.

The entrepreneur, who has been up and down in the business sea for more than 30 years and witnessed the historical process of China’s reform and opening up, has demonstrated the spiritual characteristics of Zhejiang businessmen: perseverance, courage to be the first, business to serve the country, integrity and law-abiding… CXO UNION-CXO联盟（cxounion.cn）
