Below is the monthly meeting speech delivered by King today. Wenzhou Weilan is 27 years old in 2024. We are strong and keen in quick reaction to customers's requests. However, my senior staff have some regular concepts we can not change. They understand Weilan deeply but they may be reluctant to accept and understand the new requests or new rules made by new customers. Weilan is an eyewear group, that embraces the new excellent customers every year. We will not teach customers by our old rules or so-called experience. Our key goal is to understand new customers and new requests. In 2024, we have some new challenges which I call motivation. Unfortunately, when I delivered the requests to my team, some of my team members would tell my sales team or me that it was impossible. My solution is to respect their thought, as it is they help me create the Sunrise and Weilan but I will hire the ones who believe that we can hit the customers' goal and show the result to the team who do not trust we can make it. A good team does not just add new customers but also welcomes new thoughts and new members. #wenzhouweilan #weilanoptical #Mattoptical #wenzhousinrise #sunriseoptical

Currently, I live in Paupys, Vilnius, a trendy urban Scandinavian-style neighborhood. I love it! ❤️ In the center, around the main little square, you have seven coffee shops. Naturally, every other day, I ‘test’ to taste the coffee ☕️ in each place. In one, I was offered to smell coffee beans from 4 different regions - before I placed an order. In another one, I was offered to make a choice between 2 types of beans. So I asked, “Can I smell them?”, to which I got the answer “No.” It left me confused 🫤 I have a question for Vero Cafe - why do you offer your customers to make a choice between two types of beans but don’t allow them to smell it? With a good strategy and a simple competitive analysis, this friction could have been easily avoided. What do you think? Smell the beans and enjoy your coffee 😉, Dina #paupys #vilnius #strategy #ceo #dearceo #coffee #competitiveintelligence #questions #dinavince

Sadly to see that there have been consecutive incidents of physical altercations between customers and staff at Shanghai #MannerCoffee shops. According to various reports and social media discussions, these conflicts often arise from disputes over service quality, queue management, or other in-store policies. However, I would take it to the basics. From a coffee culture perspective, which has grown significantly in China in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, it's important to understand why people buy coffee: 1. Social Interaction: Coffee shops serve as social hubs where people meet and engage in casual conversations with baristas, creating a friendly atmosphere. 2. Lifestyle and Leisure: Coffee symbolizes a modern, urban lifestyle. People visit cafes to take breaks, relax, or start their day in a leisurely manner. 3. Cultural Experience: Coffee drinking offers a sense of sophistication and cultural engagement, with an appreciation for the craft and variety of flavors. If we treat coffee purely as an energizing drink and focus only on convenience and efficiency, we risk losing the essence of coffee culture and adding unnecessary anxiety to our daily lives.

🔥🔥🔥The #Maotai latte of Luckin Coffee reached #100million on the first day! In a surprising turn of events, #Luckin Coffee, a Chinese brand established in 2018, has recently made headlines by surpassing Starbucks as the preferred choice in China. This remarkable achievement has sparked intense discussions on #socialmedia, drawing attention to an unconventional #collaboration that has captivated coffee enthusiasts across China and even more places in the world such as South Korea and Vietnam! 💡Exploring New Horizons: The #Baijiu-Coffee #Fusion Luckin Coffee's collaboration with #Maotai, one of China's most prestigious baijiu brands, has intrigued and divided consumers. Baijiu, a potent distilled spirit derived from grains, and coffee seem like an unlikely pairing. However, this intriguing combination has piqued the curiosity of many, compelling them to venture beyond their comfort zone and experience this unique fusion firsthand. 🔥Taste Perception: A Controversial Journey As the news of this collaboration spread, so did the polarizing comments surrounding its taste. People who enjoy baiju and hard liquors have embraced the bold flavors, while others shared their less-than-enthusiastic opinions, likening the taste to "vomitus." 😂 👏Accessible Luxury: An Irresistible Offer Beyond the curiosity surrounding its taste, affordability has further attracted consumers to try this intriguing fusion. Maotai, known for its #exclusivity and #high price tag, typically sells a standard 500ml bottle for over #2000 RMB. However, Luckin Coffee has made it possible to savor this luxury experience for a fraction of the cost of just 19 RMB. ☕️🍶Baiju Coffee?

Brewing Buzz: Taiwanese Coffee Giant Makes Waves in Singapore! . The global coffee landscape is witnessing a seismic shift as Louisa Coffee, one of Taiwan's largest coffee chains, debits in Singapore. This development could be a game-changer in the country's thriving coffee scene. . Located in the bustling vicinity of Guoco Midtown, near Bugis MRT station, this new entrant serves not only a plethora of drinks like Estate Coffee, Taiwanese Tea, and Iceccino but also an array of food items including sandwiches, tarts, and the much-raved about Boston Cream Pie. . This move by Louisa Coffee, a brand that has rapidly expanded since its inception in 2006 and already boasts 200 stores in Taiwan and an international presence in Thailand2, raises intriguing questions. Is this a strategic move to capture the diverse palate of Singapore's cosmopolitan population? Or is this another instance of global brands overshadowing local businesses? . Moreover, it sparks a debate on the sustainability of such rapid expansions. With the current economic climate and competitive F&B environment, will Louisa Coffee manage to brew success in Singapore? . This development also opens up discussions around cultural exchange through gastronomy. Will Singaporeans embrace this Taiwanese brand or remain loyal to local coffee shops? . _______________________ 😉 I am Jack ✅ I provide expert services to help you optimize your business's tax position lawfully and ethically.

🌆 Crazy Halloween in Shanghai: A City Reborn! As we bid farewell to Halloween, I can’t help but reflect on the incredible energy and good vibes that filled the streets of Shanghai. It was a celebration that truly captured the spirit of this amazing city! But more than that, it was a sign of something even more significant: with China’s reopening, I feel that the true energy of Shanghai is making a comeback. The city is buzzing with life once again, and it’s a joy to witness. 🔔Few economic indicators (CNBS): ▫️China’s GDP grew 5.2% from January to September ▫️Shanghai’s retail sales of consumer goods and consumption expenditure grew by 23.5% and 24% respectively during the first half of the year Here’s to the resilience of #China, Shanghai and its people. PS: You’ll notice in the video that while the police have permitted a variety of starling costumes, it appears that “Dabai 大白” are no longer accepted 🤭 #ShanghaiReborn #CityLife #PostPandemicRecovery
