- Q8051826 abstract "Yellow Sheep River (Huang Yang Chuan in Chinese) is a village situated in Gu Lang Gorgean, an arid, mountainous region of Gansu province, in the China. It is home mostly to poor families who rely on agriculture for their income.Kenny Lin was overwhelmed by the poverty and deprivation when he visited Yellow Sheep River students that he arranged for eleven computers to be sent to the middle school to help connect the village to the internet.He was working for Inventec Electronics (Tianjin) Co., Ltd at the time, and persuaded them to start a programme aimed at improving the standards of education for students from this area attending and exposing them to life in developed mainland China. This led to the creation of 'Town and Talent Technologies' a company which would help improve the education of students and provide internet access across western China.He also persuaded his friend Taiwanese entrepreneur Sayling Wen, that he should help to invest in the village and bring its inhabitants into the Information Age economy. Wen donated 100 new computers and arranged for teachers to be trained. He believed that by teaching computer basics to schoolkids, he could quickly develop a labor force to perform simple tasks for Western high-tech firms looking to outsource work.He also began building a hotel and convention center in the village, with high-speed Internet connections, state-of-the-art meeting rooms, swimming pool, sauna and even a stable for horse- and camel-back riding. Unfortunately before work had properly started Sayling Wen died.Fortunately, Kenny Lin was able to persuade one of Wen's brothers to help finish the conference center, and it was completed in 2004. It now aims to cater to the growing Chinese internal business conference and tourist trade.".
