"Post-95" Hong Kong Youth Huang Weiyun: Start a company to realize the dream of entrepreneurship

  "My university is studying business administration. I went to Shanghai and Hangzhou to do internships. At that time, I found that the mainland is a huge market." In July 2017, the "post-95" Hong Kong youth Huang Weiyun graduated from Hong Kong Shuren University. I chose to work in Dongguan, but I often go to Foshan and Zhongshan for work reasons.

  At this time, Huang Weijian realized the Guangzhou Nansha Youth Federation through an exchange group and learned that Nansha is working hard to build a Hong Kong youth space, provide free office space, and can apply for a business license in one day. Huang Weihan set his start-up location to Nansha, Guangzhou.

  Huang Weiyun said that he chose foreign trade and transportation logistics mainly because he worked in manufacturing and foreign trade after graduation, recognizing that foreign countries still have a great demand for "Made in China" and their gross profit is quite large.

  Since then, meeting with customers in Hong Kong from Monday to Wednesday, contacting customers, visiting suppliers in Nansha or the Greater Bay Area from Thursday to weekend, and handling mainland business have become Huang Weihua's one-week itinerary. "The company has been established for almost two years now. When it was first established, it was indeed more troublesome. It was necessary to learn a different business system, taxation, finance, etc. from Hong Kong. Fortunately, thanks to the assistance of Nansha Youth League, they almost have to ask Answer. "Huang Weihan told reporters.

  "I think Nansha has always been on the road of rapid development. In terms of policy, I feel particularly deeply about the support methods and subsidies for Hong Kong and Macao youths. Even in Hong Kong, we will hear Nansha almost every other day or two News of the launch of the new policy. "Huang Weixi said.

"Post-90s" Hong Kong University Master Zheng Qian: There is nothing wrong with choosing Nansha

  In April 2017, 26-year-old Zheng Qian was studying for a master's degree at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. She went to Guangzhou to participate in the "Sea Fair", and later went to Nansha with the delegation to study, she chose this place as her dream start.

  At the beginning, she did a media interview and translation for the spokesperson at the Nansha Regatta. Later, the job allowed her to make more friends, and the translation business was slowly developed and developed. The international activities she has been exposed to at work have also increased: non-legacy fashion awards, CNBC conferences ... Sometimes customers are surprised that Nansha has such a professional translation company.

  Zheng Qian believes that for the translation industry, Nansha's location in the geographic geometric center of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has a great advantage, so she set the goal for the company as "based on Nansha and serving the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area".

  In addition to its geographical advantage, Nansha ’s policies also made Zheng Qian feel tangible encouragement. As a corporate legal person, Nansha District subsidized her social security for 36 months. In addition, she has also enjoyed employment subsidies and newly introduced talent subsidies in the past three years.

  "Remember that when I visited the Pearl Bay Exhibition Hall, at the end of the promotional film, an old man patted the young man's shoulder and said, 'After birth, choose Nansha, there is nothing wrong!' I feel like this now."

"Post-85" Macau Youth Yang Cheng: Nansha Shipping Logistics has obvious advantages

  For Yang Cheng, a 32-year-old Macau entrepreneur, Guangzhou Nansha is an important part of the company's development strategy. Last year, he went to Yixiang E-commerce Guangzhou Branch as the general manager. The office is located in Nansha "Foreign Exchange Valley". However, as early as 2017, Yang Cheng had often come to Nansha and had a certain interaction and understanding with Nansha.

  In August 2017, a truck loaded with Macao's specialties arrived at the Nansha freight terminal, marking the official opening of the "Guangdong-Macao cross-border e-commerce through train" in Nansha. These batches of Macao food were transferred from Hengqin port to customs clearance and entered the Nansha cross-border e-commerce park with high efficiency. Since then, Guangdong consumers have been able to place orders directly on the cross-border e-commerce platform on the cross-border e-commerce platform set up in the Nansha Free Trade Zone. They will receive goods sent from Macao within 48 hours. Can be received soon, and the price is reduced by 20% to 30% compared with the general "haitao".

  "'Guangdong-Macao cross-border e-commerce through train' opened a door for us. Before we also wanted to do this in other places, but failed. The reason why we can succeed in Nansha is that we dare to 'try first and try first' '.' Yang Cheng said.

  What makes Yang Cheng happy is that "Guangdong-Macao Cross-Border E-Commerce Express" can help Macao's small and medium-sized enterprises to expand the channels of products sold to the mainland, and at the same time, it can also help some old Macao enterprises rejuvenate. "An elderly couple has been selling a Chinese medicine for cardiovascular treatment. Both Macao people and mainlanders like to buy it, but they are older and do not understand online sales. We helped them join Guangdong and Macau cross-border e-commerce business pretty good."

  Yang Cheng said that the advantages of Guangzhou Nansha ’s shipping logistics are very important for the opening of the “Guangdong-Macao Cross-border E-commerce Express Train”. “In recent years, the container throughput of Nansha Port has been rising. Nansha can be said to be the most leading in the field of South China , The amount is up, the more you do the more proficient, the faster the process goes. "(End)
