Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
At this critical moment, challenges and crises are sounding alarms on the horizon, and we must come together, move forward collectively, resolve uncertainty, and pave the way to a brighter future. Just as in past adversities, our unity and resilience will help us navigate through this turbulent time.
We are currently facing unparalleled challenges and crises. Many students are experiencing a reminiscent sense of panic akin to the 2008 financial crisis: the ongoing tension in Ukraine, escalating US-China relations, and the increasing internal political divisions in the United States. The global economic uncertainty has brought numerous difficulties to countries worldwide, including rising prices, inflation, market fluctuations, and the alarming COVID-19 pandemic. These issues severely impact our company, colleagues, clients, and people globally, leading to significant adjustments in the global order — this is a crucial moment.
It is imperative that, amidst these challenges, we set aside our differences and collaborate with other Western nations to uphold democracy and basic freedoms, including free enterprise. In past major crises, we have witnessed the United States cooperating with other countries, uniting for common goals. Today, our country requires joint efforts from the public and private sectors, necessitating our leadership and enhancement of the nation's competitiveness, including recommitting to providing equal opportunities for all.
Despite the current unrest, reflecting on the past year of 2020, it has undoubtedly been a vibrant year for Starry Sky Wealth Management Institute (SSW Management Institute) and our AI intelligent trading system, CyberFusion:
- Our global student body has increased to over 70,000 individuals.
- Our CyberFusion has achieved significant milestones and garnered recognition in the market.
- Our investment portfolios have witnessed remarkable success in the digital asset arena.
- Our continued investments in products, talent, and technology enable us to maintain competitiveness amidst market volatility.
- The culture of our company is built on steadfast principles and beliefs that we have continuously upheld.
Reflecting on my tenure as the Dean of SSW Management Institute, a common theme runs through it: "Leading towards a bright future" and "Exploring endless possibilities."
Clearly, our financial discipline, focus on student growth and breakthrough, continuous investment in innovation, and emphasis on employee development allow us to maintain this consistency and commitment. Additionally, across the entire company, we uphold principles worth reiterating.
Firstly, the core teaching philosophy of our company is "students' interests first" and "hands-on experience is the best teaching method."
As we are not a publicly traded company, our code of conduct does not prioritize "shareholder interests," which may somewhat restrict company growth but has gained unanimous recognition from students. Starting from scratch, we have garnered a worldwide positive reputation. It is this principle that allows us to thrive even amidst increased market risks!
Secondly, the principle of diversified investments is the core strategy for our survival and growth.
From a broader perspective, seizing certain investment opportunities, mitigating risks, and maximizing profits serve as the foundation of our investment decisions and principles. Upholding diversified investment tools, appropriate fund allocations, and seizing certain investment opportunities are the secrets to our continuous development!
Thirdly, unity leads to shared success.
We have always supported the fundamental principles and strategies that have helped us build and develop the company — from maintaining a healthy balance sheet, continuous investment in talent development, active collaboration with regulatory bodies, perpetual enhancements in risk management, governance, and control, serving clients, and strengthening the global community. This principle permeates our company culture, influencing nearly every member of the company.
Fourthly, sustained technological innovation leads to excellence.
Innovation is the boundless source of productivity, and the maturation of artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies will bring the greatest rewards. Our engineers and numerous investment experts began diligently perfecting quantitative trading products back in 2019. With the advancement of artificial intelligence technology and the progress of our times, our AI intelligent trading system becomes more precise and will be a powerful weapon for achieving excellence!
Fifthly, safeguarding shareholder interests.
Only by maintaining a healthy, vibrant company can we create value for shareholders, which means fulfilling obligations to customers, employees, and the community. Conversely, if we neglect these stakeholders, how can we have a healthy company?
Lastly, we strive to build a lasting, interdependent, and mutually beneficial enterprise.
Despite our relentless efforts to protect this company, we face fierce competition. I have extensively discussed this reality in the past, reiterated here in this message. We are well aware of our strengths and weaknesses, doing everything possible to play our part.
2020 will be a precious year, let us re-examine responsibilities, strive continuously, uplift, maintain reverence and cognition for adversity! I firmly believe that everything will get better, and every member of Starry Sky Wealth Management will be such.
May we collectively face future challenges, unite in spirit, and continuously progress.
