“Sorry to inform you madam, according to the original plan, the flight on the morning of July 26, 2021 has been canceled due to weather reasons. You can go to the counter to apply for a refund or change your ticket.” After countless air ticket changes and communication with the organizing committee, we finally participate in the FIBC held in Shanghai.

Next day, after breakfast we went to the competition. Because of our ignorance of our opponents and products, we did not perform well in the first and second rounds.

It was the third round when our company “waked up.” Before starting, our group had a short meeting, in which we were assigned the tasks that we needed to do. During the third round, I negotiated with a technology company, whose CEO told me that another company gave the seller more money than our company did.

At this time, I was afraid that the first product was copied by others, so I analyzed the selling point with team members and figured out what contribution we can make for the future development of the company. In the subsequent cooperation and display, we also encountered all kinds of problems.

With endless effort, we settled computer technology and negotiation issues. Finally, we won the Outstanding Trade Award. In the fifth round, I sat at a long table and watched people coming and going, and I was thinking: What brings us together? Until the “Blue Star” lit up behind me, I realized the answer was warmth and hope.

There are all kinds of problems in our life. What we can do is to keep a positive attitude, analyze the problems we meet, find out the solutions and deal with them with confidence. During the process, we feel warm and hopeful when we work with team members. After going through difficult times, we will achieve our success.
