Footprints as ink, Gobi as paper: On the 28th anniversary of Qinji, we walk side by side, measuring the journey of ten thousand miles.

In May, Dunhuang is swept by long, mighty winds and vast, boundless deserts. To celebrate Qingen Group's 28th anniversary, we chose the most passionate way—to use the Gobi Desert as our canvas and our footprints as ink, together composing the grand chapter of "Starting from the Heart, Journeying Together Across the World!"

I. Tempering the Soul in the Gobi: An 88-Kilometer Expedition of Belief

In Dunhuang, Gansu—the ancient route once traveled by Xuanzang—34 Qingen elites embarked on an 88-kilometer journey across the Gobi. This was no ordinary hike, but a true crucible testing willpower and conviction.

Rediscovering Our Original Intent: Under scorching sun that scorched skin and windblown sand that choked throats, every step posed an extreme challenge and prompted deep introspection. Conversations beneath starlit skies sparked intense exchanges about responsibility, goals, and the mission to advance the Phoenix Project.

Forging Team Unity: Steep dunes and rugged terrain were overcome through teammates’ helping hands, shoulder-to-shoulder support, and shared burdens. Departmental barriers dissolved, forging unbreakable trust like that of a "band of brothers," turning "Journeying Together Across the World" into action.

Building Resilience: The darkest hour before dawn is the hardest to endure. At the peak of exhaustion, with goals seeming distant, perseverance in the face of despair reignited the sharp edge of our "second entrepreneurial drive." Like瞬息 business warfare, the Gobi taught us to cultivate "strategic composure" amid uncertainty and forge a "community of shared destiny" at our limits!

II. Global Unity: A 10-Kilometer Walk of Reflective Solidarity

While Dunhuang’s warriors sweated on the Gobi, Qingen colleagues worldwide simultaneously launched the "10-Kilometer Reflective Walk" on May 23.

From Shenzhen Bay to Hong Kong, Taiwan, and cities across the globe—Qingen people of diverse ethnicities and languages walked suburban trails and urban paths under the same blue sky. These 10 kilometers paid tribute to 28 years of shared trials and embodied our collective commitment to "Starting from the Heart." This cross-time-and-space walk silently declared: No matter where we are, Qingen hearts beat as one, gathering strength for a common future!

III. The Indelible Imprint: Ideal · Action · Perseverance

The profound imprint left by the Gobi embodies the very spirit Qingen needs to charge forward into the future:

Resilience: Unyielding perseverance in adversity;

Collaboration: Wisdom in breaking down barriers and overcoming challenges together;

Responsibility: Courage to proactively shoulder duties for the team and mission;

Breakthrough: Sharp determination to seek innovation and breakthroughs at the edge of limits.

This invaluable Gobi spirit must not only shine in Dunhuang’s sands but also infuse every decision we make, every collaboration we undertake, and every tough battle we fight! The 28th anniversary is not just a milestone—it’s a new starting point. We firmly believe:

The warriors who return bearing the Gobi’s imprint will be the most resilient standard-bearers on our journey ahead! Every Qingen colleague who joined the Reflective Walk is an indispensable contributor to our group’s future blueprint! Let us forever remember this journey where footsteps measured belief, internalize the Gobi spirit in our hearts, and manifest it through our actions! Shoulder to shoulder, let us stride forward with greater vigor toward the next glorious 28 years and our magnificent goals—with courage and unwavering resolve!
