name— User-supplied vendor hint was "JN Optoelectronics (九州光电)". Research did not surface any active quantum vendor named 九州光电 / "JN Optoelectronics". The closest match — and almost certainly the intended target — is 浙江九州量子信息技术股份有限公司 (Zhejiang Jiuzhou Quantum Information Technology, English short name QTEC). Slug set to jiuzhou-quantum accordingly. The Shandong / Jinan / Qingdao metro-QKD deployments mentioned in the hints are dominated by QuantumCTek (USTC spin-out) and USTC academic groups, not by Jiuzhou — Jiuzhou's headquarters and principal commercial activity are in Zhejiang (Tongxiang / Hangzhou), not Shandong. -
hq— Company registered in Tongxiang (桐乡市), Zhejiang; principal operating office reported in Hangzhou per the 2024 annual shareholders meeting venue. The user-supplied hint of "Shandong" appears to be a confusion with Shandong-province QKD networks (Jinan QMAN, Jinan↔Qingdao TF-QKD) which are QuantumCTek / USTC programmes, not Jiuzhou. -

shareholders— Controlling-shareholder identification (Zheng Shaohui + concert parties) is from public NEEQ filings; exact percentages and full ownership chain not extracted from Chinese-language half-year report -
milestones— Detailed Shandong-area deployments could not be verified to Jiuzhou Quantum; principal Shandong QKD references (Jinan QMAN, Jinan↔Qingdao 511 km TF-QKD, Jinan-1 micro-satellite) belong to QuantumCTek and USTC research groups. If a Jiuzhou-specific Shandong contract exists, it was not surfaced by web search and should be added on next refresh. -
