In his concluding remarks, Jin Wei, Executive Vice General Manager of China Jianlong, shared his understanding and reflections on sports. Mr. Jin noted that the charm of sports lies between chance and inevitability. Outcomes on the court can be influenced by factors like form and mindset, which is precisely what makes competition thrilling. However, consistent performance is also rooted in relentless daily practice. Sports temper the will, teaching perseverance through wins and losses, forging a stronger inner self. Simultaneously, sports serve as a bridge for social interaction—whether teammates fighting side by side or opponents challenging each other, they can become lifelong friends. Finally, Mr. Jin encouraged every employee to cultivate a sport they love and stick with it long-term, maintaining good health, achieving growth through dedicated work, and enriching life through joyful living.
