• Resume and academic grades constitute only a small part of my life, so I would like
to go a step further to show who I am and what shaped me.
• I would like to share with you the five mottos I believe in, and the stories behind
them. They have determined the way I look at the world and myself.
Five mottos and the stories
1
“The final success is not depended on how fast one walks but how far”
2
Four-and-a-half toes
• "You could never engage in any fast-paced
activities in your life." the doctor claimed when I
was a child, because of disease-causing four-and-a-
half toes and unbalanced legs.
• The very obstacle did not discourage me from
walking, sporting, and traveling, yet in turn
impelled me to bravely embrace challenges.
• I tried to regain physical functions through light
exercises, and I believe that taking can-do attitudes
towards life is likely to achieve high level of well-
being.

Walking-to-trekking specialist
• I kept exercising and gradually became a
trekking specialist, who once hiked across
Shangri-La, climbed over Minya Konka, and
arrived at Mt.Everest.
• Life is like the hiking. The spirit of persistence
released my potential to overcome the obstacles
at my feet, guided my way toward the goals,
promoted my growth, and lighted up my
leadership.
• I never overly concern with immediate profit,
but make the right decision from a strategic
viewpoint and a long-term perspective.

“The only unchangeable thing is change”
5
Fading of the salt business and my family
• Unchanging environment loaded the memories
of my childhood. I was born in Zigong, a bustling
Chinese salt trading center, where salt drilling and
production techniques, transportation means of
horses and ferries, and salt-related culture
emerged.
• Tasted the fragility of business. The “salt city”
had no longer been prosperous until the rise of
modern logistics and trade with the advancing of
technologies, even my family had declined with a
sense of helplessness.

The secret of sustainability
• I joined Weiss-Rohlig, which has a similarly
long history to salt trading business in my
hometown yet achieves sustainable
development.
• I have grown to perform effective leadership,
foster practical thinking, and bravely embrace
new ideas and challenges.
• My practice of operation innovation and
organization reform had confirmed my belief
that foresight and innovation are the only path
to the success of sound and sustainable
business.

“Education is the light of hope”
8
A sense of social responsibility
• There are 57 million dropout children in China,
this figure is close to the total number of children in
the United States. They live in poverty, and
education is the only way to change their fate.
• I have been volunteering to go to primary schools
in remote mountain areas each year, providing
educational and financial support.
• Compared to these children, I am lucky. I hope
that my humble efforts could be a spark that lights
up the children's heart and future.
Hope Primary School
9
“Spirit is more powerful than body”
10
Self cultivation
• The spirit of Zen has emerged in my personal and
professional experience. It allows me to maintain inner
peace.
• I am holistically concentrated when identifying and
analyzing problems, with a clearer logic intelligence to
make right decisions.
• I often conduct self-evaluations and reflections, and
communicate with people in a more empathetic and
humble way. I believe that empathy, humility, and
humanity exactly are what great leaders have to possess.
• I hope to share the wisdom of Zen with more people in
the future, to help them gain inner strength and build a
more powerful self.

11
“Have my cake and eat it too”
12
Purchase happiness in life
• As a mother, I can create my value in helping
graduate mothers achieve and maintain better work-
life balance. I fully understand that building careers
while raising children would be a collision given time
and energy constraints. To alleviate the situation, I
have learned to manage both time and energy to take
care of my family better.
• I have also been concerning challenges faced by
women in business, I plan to join SWIM to support
women in seeking professional opportunities and
dealing with business challenges by virtue of my own
experience.
