Ma Huateng teased friends and businessmen at the annual meeting and staged a Cantonese song to send blessings!
At the annual meeting of Tencent held in Shenzhen, Chairman and CEO Ma Huateng made a profound summary and comment on the company’s development in the past year. Ma Huateng not only showed his profound understanding of the company’s business, but also skillfully incorporated elements of light humor into his speech, which left a deep impression on the employees present and people who paid attention to the meeting.
In his speech, Ma Huateng vividly described the state of market competition and friendly business with a vivid metaphor. He compared friends and businessmen to a big family, in which the "big brother" (that is, the market leader) had a harmonious family when it developed smoothly, but once it encountered weak growth, family conflicts surfaced. He pointed out that many friends have not yet realized the seriousness of the situation and are still spending without restraint. This ridicule is not only vivid, but also implies a profound observation of the internal dynamics of the industry.
When talking about the current situation of Tencent, Ma Huateng expressed a firm and confident attitude. Although Tencent ranks fourth in revenue and third in profit among Internet platform enterprises, he emphasizes that quality and sustainability are more important. In Ma Huateng’s view, every business of Tencent should pursue "evergreen", that is, continuous vitality and growth potential. He encourages employees to find and cultivate "new shoots" in their own fields to ensure the company’s continuous innovation and development.
One of the highlights of the annual meeting is that Ma Huateng personally took the stage to perform programs for employees. He sang the Cantonese version of Blessing You and interacted with employees during the performance, which undoubtedly strengthened the emotional connection with employees and showed his affinity and personality charm as a business leader.
Netizens have different opinions on Ma Huateng, but many people admire his true and cordial image, especially his eyes of "no more, no less, just two", which seems to be a symbol of his frank and sincere attitude.
Tencent’s annual meeting is not only a summary of the work in the past year, but also a prospect for the future. Ma Huateng’s speech and performance added a touch of bright color to the annual meeting, and also pointed out the direction for the company’s future development. In this ever-changing market environment, Tencent is firmly on the road of sustainable development in its unique way. Let’s wait and see, and expect Tencent to continue to write brilliant chapters in the future!
