Owen Young
Met 2024-11-24 14:00 at Shenzhen Marriott Nanshan, Shenzhen, China.We are a lot alike except when asking how I keep my notes and contacts he said that wouldn't work for other people. He's looking to build something others will love, whereas I just build tools for myself. Really wants an all-in-one tool that's as simple as Apple Notes on Mac.
He made a browser plugin to manage translations then sold it to a company that seemed to share his ethics. He now works for that company.
He's from Yulin, Shaanxi. He feels very lucky. He lived for three years Huizhou City, Guangdong - a few hours from Shenzhen - and loves the life there, but moved back into central Shenzhen to be closer to work.
He took me out to a hot pot lunch which was wonderful.
