As per 3C certification, it is manufactured by Hongfujin Precision Electronics, a subsidiary of Hon Hai Precision, which is commonly known as Foxconn.
This machine is reported to be marketed as Qingyun W510. It will include a 23.8-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) monitor with 70% color gamut, a keyboard, and a mouse. For ports, it is said to feature 7 x USB Type-A, 1 x USB Type-C, 3.5mm headphone jack, and ethernet. It will also feature an optical drive.
