(II) further deepen the concept of partnership entrepreneurship and strengthen the company’s competitive advantage

The middle and senior employees of the company participating in the shareholding plan are core key personnel who play an important role in the overall performance and medium and long-term development of the company. While constantly promoting organizational change and efficiency improvement, they adhere to the equivalence of rights, responsibilities and interests, and promote the deep binding of the core team and key employees with the long-term growth value of the company, It is conducive to promoting the thinking transformation of the core team and key employees from “manager” to “partner”, giving full play to their subjective initiative, taking the initiative to assume the responsibility for the company’s long-term development and growth, promoting the company’s strategic transformation and reform, constantly improving and improving business performance and strengthening the company’s long-term competitive advantage.
