Liang Xinjun, the co-founder of Fosun Group, shared his legendary journey from starting a business with 100,000 yuan to taking the company public during Lianhe Zaobao’s “Morning Fireside Chat.”
Highlight:
Liang Xinjun, Co-founder of Fosun Group:"I think developing as a young person in Singapore is both painful and fortunate... Any young person or enterprise in Singapore must aim high. From the very beginning, you need to be clear that you’re building a global business. This is the only path for your entrepreneurial success—there’s no second option."
He pointed out that Singapore’s young people face dual challenges in the waves of globalization and technological transformation: the constraints of a small market and global competition. However, they also benefit from opportunities brought by innovations in AI and Web3 technologies.
In this episode of Lianhe Zaobao’s podcast Creativity, Liang Xinjun encourages young people to expand their careers with a global perspective, particularly in emerging fields such as DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks). He emphasized that embracing the development of decentralized technologies, learning to use AI large language models as a “third foreign language,” and maintaining an open mindset for learning are the keys to standing out at this pivotal moment in history.
This season’s podcast host is Shen Yue, the Finance News Director at Lianhe Zaobao.
