Interestingly, JingOS's About page [1] uses similar words but different companies:
> Our team is very experienced. They are experts from Lenovo, Alibaba, Sumsung, Canonical/Ubuntu, Trolltech and other famous IT Companies.

> Trolltech
Trolltech, the creator of the Qt framework, became part of Nokia in 2008 and doesn't exist any more as a company since. So it's a rather strange reference.

Wouldn't be surprised as it seems to be based in China. There are no shortage of tech talents that used to work in these big IT companies. Be interested to see how they stay true the FOSS principles and make this OS support more devices.
Any competitions to existing duopoly are good.

OxygenOS is an Android fork (or reskin, if you're being less generous). It's much harder to get linux to behave reasonably on a tablet if you're not starting with Android.
This is the only thing I found with some limited googling:
> Our team is very experienced in making gadgets. They are experts from Xiaomi/OPPO/Google/Ubuntu and other Consumer Electronic Companies. So what we are talking about here is not a low-end tablet for geeks and Linux users. It will be designed just like a tablet for consumers with the best quality we can achieve.
