There are others who can write Chinese, and even carry him around like a vehicle. The man who dropped out of school fell in love with robots 30 years ago.
Since then, Wu has built 100 of them that can do 100 different things. Calling the robots his children, the man said he once accidentally burnt down his house while building one.
His life turned around
He was in serious debt as a result of that and his marriage suffered a big hit. Wu would later win many robotic competitions that made him rich. He now sells robots for a living and teaches other people how to build one.
