Or maybe they're just mistaken...? (I'm kidding)

In celebration of this milestone, Smartisan will donate approximately 3 million RMB from sales of tickets of this year's and last year's launch events to OpenSSL Software Foundation and the OpenBSD Foundation, two Android open source service organizations.

Reads like a confirmation of aMayn's theory, donating to OpenSSL and OpenSSH simultanously makes sense.

They donated over 300k USD to OpenSSL in 2014: https://mta.openssl.org/pipermail/openssl-announce/2014-Dece...
