Mr. Shen Guoqing, from Nanjing China, is one who are good at wood engraving handcraft. There are many photography lovers who go to him asking for design and making up of wooden handgrip for them. Mr. Shen Guoqing always accepts. Each twin handgrip would be done exactly by the hand shape of each person.
April. 2010, from the go-between Mr. Liu desheng, a man named Liu zhaosheng went to Mr. Shen Guoqing asking for a design a handgrip for his Cambo camera. Mr. Shen Guoqing agreed. Some days later, Liu zhaosheng brought one cambo WRS camera from Guangdong to Shen guoqing’s home in Nanjing city. Shen Guoqing used gymsum to get Liu zhaosheng’s hand shape. It took Shen guoqing a month to design,make,engrave this handgrip.
May. 2010, Liu zhaosheng brought another man bareheaded (no hair) (in 2012 Shen Guoqing knew this man was the boss of Nexor. Nexor is the distributor of Cambo in China.). They three met in a small coffee bar. The bareheaded man took the gymsum model and the wooden handgrips away.
May. 2010, Liu zhaosheng secretly sent a SMS to Shen Guoqing’s mobile phone, saying: this handgrip, designed by me, made by you, should be kept secretly and do not tell anyone. Shen guoqing was confused but he did probe into this matter.
In the year 2012, Cambo announced a its WRS camera version with wooden handgrip. It’s until now Shen Guoqing realized that the handgrip was exactly the same as his design for Liu zhaosheng. GESUS CHRIST! They make a lot of denies, saying: the handgrip is cooperated and co-designed by Liu zhaosheng and Nexor company!!!
