One of MSI's factories in China on fire

[LNC_Luke]

Summary

MSI's factory in Kunshan, China catches on fire on video. 

 

My thoughts

How much of an impact will this have on them considering the scandal they just had.

Everything going on with MSI right now is very worrisome... I love the brand and their products but man, get your shit together.

I don’t see how the scandal negates any of the effects this fire has on the company or the people working there.

"Winnie the Pooh" is a reference to the President of China. I'm not sure how or why that became associated with him, but that's a banned reference none the less.

 

And, I likely wouldn't put it past reddit moderators trying to avoid getting reddit blocked in mainland china by deleting any topic that criticizes the Chinese gonvernment.

My guess is an MSI engineer tried to overclock an Intel 11th Gen engineering sample and the VRMs caught fire.

Isn't Reddit already banned in China?

Probably an insurance scam, or an attack thats been covered up.

Some people/builders have morals, others only care about the quick buck. Besides that, wasnt there a mall that collapsed in China, the head engineer and the head builder......... no longer alive. Didn't same go for toxins in baby formula, ceo and another exec...... gone.

So the scoundrels have a little bit of self saving morals.

By chance is he at the beach now drinking margaritas?

I'm not going to jump to conclusions, but there is a lot of stuff going on with MSI right now that is VERY suspect. That said, I hope no one got hurt (or worse) from the fire.

Umm.. I could remembering wrong but wasn't there just recently another msi factory "on fire"? 

 

Could have been another company, I just faintly remember there was something.

 

Edit: was Huawei, see below post, thanks @zeusthemoose

Posts like these are always so transparent... 

So you're saying it was a conspiracy, hmm! 

 

I mean, it seems likely, yeah. 

 

Where there's smoke there's fire! (no pun intended...)
