"Study tour" is a term I only came into contact with in recent years. I took the opportunity to visit Alibaba to gain a new perspective on the world. After all, in a sense, I had been closed off for a long time, immersed in my own state and persistence.
Actually, for many years, I have been quite resistant to coming to listen to these courses. I just feel that the teachers always say things that contradict each other, and some of their words are just castle in the air. Perhaps it's these ideas that stimulate people to fantasize and lure them into dreaming. Of course, I still agree with the beliefs of "kindness, beauty, and public welfare". After all, I am not very smart, and I hope that people who are smarter than me are also good people, so they won't deceive me - otherwise, I have no defense. All kinds of blunt words like "making money".
Of course, during this process, I still gained a lot: the current focus of work, many actionable plans, and principles that I had forgotten. Take direction as an example, this year our company has increased its investment in AliExpress; however, I didn't grasp the direction that Mr. Yu had for this platform. I am considered a key cadre in the company, yet even I didn't understand it, which shows that the spirit of this project hasn't been conveyed properly.
Moreover, I once subscribed to the standard that "only those who complete tasks on time and as required are qualified." Now, however, I've been so worn down that I can't help but feel emotionally overwhelmed when I see this phrase: "How many times have I had to compromise and accept that people are just ordinary, making mistakes, being incomprehensible, shirking work, and not learning is a common occurrence.".
After returning, I will have a good discussion with Mr. Yu and set up this team. At the thought of this discussion meeting, I feel a bit discouraged, as I always feel that I will encounter various obstacles from him. I can already imagine his tone and expression when he says things like "grasp everything, make everything a priority, just do it and see".
