随着改革开放的大门越开越大,中国已成为各国人才创业就业的首选目的地之一。中关村人才协会作为世界知名的人才服务领域NGO,近年来也吸纳了一批外籍人才会员,其中一些人非常愿意分享他们在中国创业和就业的故事,客观地表达他们对中国的看法。同时,他们也乐于为外国人才来华创业工作出谋献策,为地方政府提供外国人才来华就业创业支持和服务方面的建议和意见。
基于这样的背景,ZTA发起了一系列对外籍成员的公益采访,这一系列访谈的主题是:我对中国发展/经验的看法和我对中国就业和创业的看法。
本次接受采访的是澳大利亚籍的企业家Jason Wang,他是北京辛诺创新科技有限公司的COO,联合创始人。这是一家专注于为用户提供云技术咨询服务的公司。今天他将从他的视角解读他对中国就业和创业的看法。
1.你什么时候来中国的?你为什么选择现在的专业、工作或创业领域?在中国什么最吸引你?你最喜欢的中国城市是哪个?
我2015年回国,基于对云计算发展趋势的判断和过往在国内外云技术及服务行业中积累的经验,与朋友一起创办了北京辛诺创新科技有限公司,注册地点位于北京海淀中关村创业大厦,专注于为用户提供云技术咨询服务。在随后几年内,辛诺创新迅速发展成为一家经验丰富的云技术解决方案和咨询服务提供商,与亚马逊云科技密切合作,为全球客户提供国际高标准服务。
中国人民勤劳智慧,年轻人受教育程度高,在各个领域都有大量的人才储备。尤其这些年党和政府对科技创新领域不断加大支持和投入,吸引了科技创新前沿的大量外籍和海龟人才。
祖国的山河文化,一草一木都深深吸引着我,没有最喜欢的城市,因为各有特色,都很喜欢。
2.近年来,中国出现了越来越多的国际企业家。你对创业有什么看法?不同时期的困难是什么?
创业过程九死一生,每个阶段都会遇到不同的困难。初创企业最主要的困难是或多或少的资金压力,我和我的团队希望能在战胜初创期的艰难之后,敏锐地捕捉到时代发展机遇,凭借国际领先水平的核心产品和技术,引入西方先进的企业管理机制,迅速成长为行业独角兽。
3.您是如何了解中国不同的法律法规并取得营业执照的?你得到了当地政府的支持吗?
北京辛诺创新科技有限公司注册在北京海淀中关村,入驻海淀区著名孵化器中关村创业大厦三年,不仅享受过办公场地租金优惠和税务减免,更通过参加创业大厦举办的各类宣讲活动,及时了解到北京市和海淀区政府的相关政策与法规。
4.您如何看待近年来中国科技和数字经济的发展?你有机会和福利吗?
中国正处于经济转型期,下一个经济成长阶段必将由科技创新引领,我们有幸在这个关键时期创业,并身处各类科技创新最为活跃的信息科技领域,希望能把握机会,参与分享这一波经济发展带来的红利。
5.你如何看待中国市场的机会?近年来,市场和中国消费者发生了怎样的变化?
中国市场大,机会多,但是当前许多行业面临内卷的挑战,如何推动业务出海,抢占海外市场,已经成为众多企业家关注和思考的热点问题。针对国内市场的这一新需求,辛诺创新充分利用驻外分支机构分布较广的优势,积极为中国出海企业提供国内性价比最高的数据安全合规服务,如欧洲区的GDPR和北美的SOC2等,为出海企业解决后顾之忧。
6.中国不断扩大各领域对外开放,不断改善营商环境。你在哪些领域需要进一步提高?
近年来国家和政府对于创业公司、小微企业的贷款审批条件不断放宽,希望对于外籍法人企业也给予更多的关怀和扶助,进一步放宽外籍员工申请办理绿卡的条件限制等。
7.随着今年社会和经济活动的恢复,你的生意或学习进展如何?你的未来前景如何?
近几年,企业和个人的云资源用量逐年增长,业务应用上云已经成为大多数企业的不二之选,云服务行业整体前景看好。在这个大背景下,辛诺创新自主研发的FinOps降本增效平台产品CLOUDFIT,致力于为云上企业大幅降低云资源支出,优化云上应用性能和云资源利用率。
8.你加入中关村人才协会的原因是什么?你对中关村人才协会的服务有什么期望?
今年初通过SRE的刘峰老师介绍,有幸结识了中关村人才协会冷明秘书长,能加入中关村人才协会是我个人的荣幸。希望中关村人才协会为我们这些外籍创业者提供及时准确的政策解读,指导相关资质申请,使我们能更专注于加快技术创新和核心业务发展。

天佑我中华,盼整体经济转型成功,民族复兴大业早日实现。
With the door of reform and opening up ever wider, China has become one of the top destinations for talented people from all over the world to start businesses and find jobs. As a world-renowned NGO in the field of human resources services, Zhongguancun Talent Association has also attracted a number of foreign talent members in recent years, some of whom are very willing to share their stories about starting and working in China, and objectively express their views on China. At the same time, they are also willing to offer suggestions for foreign talents to start businesses in China, and provide local governments with suggestions and opinions on support and services for foreign talents to work in China.
Based on this background, ZTA initiated a series of public benefit interviews with foreign members, the theme of which is: my views on China's development/experience and my views on China's employment and entrepreneurship.

The Chinese people are industrious and intelligent, the young people are highly educated, and there is a large talent pool in various fields. In particular, in recent years, the Party and the government have continuously increased support and investment in the field of scientific and technological innovation, attracting a large number of foreign and sea turtle talents at the forefront of scientific and technological innovation.
The mountain culture of the motherland, every grass and trees are deeply attracted to me, there is no favorite city, because each has its own characteristics, all like it very much.
2. In recent years, more and more international entrepreneurs have emerged in China. How do you feel about entrepreneurship? What are the difficulties at different times?
The process of starting a business is close to death, and each stage will encounter different difficulties. The most important difficulty for startups is more or less financial pressure. My team and I hope that after overcoming the difficulties in the initial stage, we can keenly grasp the development opportunities of The Times, and rapidly grow into an industry unicorn by relying on internationally advanced core products and technologies and introducing advanced western enterprise management mechanisms.
3. How do you understand the different laws and regulations in China and obtain a business license? Do you have the support of the local government?
Beijing Simba Innovation Technology Co., Ltd. was registered in Zhongguancun, Haidian District, Beijing, and settled in Zhongguancun Entrepreneurship Building, a famous incubator in Haidian District, for three years. It has not only enjoyed office space rent concessions and tax deductions, but also learned about the relevant policies and regulations of Beijing and Haidian District government by participating in various publicity activities held by Entrepreneurship Building.

China is in the midst of economic transition, and the next stage of economic growth will be led by scientific and technological innovation.

We hope to seize the opportunity to participate in and share the dividends brought by this wave of economic development.

In response to this new demand in the domestic market, Sino Innovation makes full use of the advantages of a wide distribution of branches abroad, and actively provides Chinese overseas enterprises with the most cost-effective data security compliance services, such as GDPR in Europe and SOC2 in North America, to solve the worries of overseas enterprises.
6. China continues to open wider to the outside world and improve its business environment. What areas do you need to improve?
In recent years, the state and government have continuously relaxed the loan approval conditions for startups and small and micro enterprises, hoping to give more care and assistance to foreign legal enterprises, and further relax the conditions for foreign employees to apply for green cards.
