In the history of mankind, there have been thousands of liberation movements, some in their infancy and some that ignited a spark to form a prairie fire, and at the beginning of the 20th century, a women's liberation movement kicked off, the fruits of which are still commemorated today: International Women's Day. It has been 111 years since the first International Women's Day, and now women not only have equal rights, but also shine in various industries, diffusing their charms.
The scientific instrumentation industry, an industry that often deals with scientific research and technical equipment and was once predominantly male, now has a large number of excellent female practitioners. Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Shi Qiluo") is one of them.
"In the scientific instrument industry, we speak from our strength and true ability." At the beginning of 2022, Qiu Yueyi hosted the 2021 annual sales summary and business training meeting for Schuyler, where he discussed the development with several departmental leaders and distributors. Everyone was excited and delighted with the achievements of Schuyler in 2021, and also recognized and encouraged by the strategic goals of Schuyler in the next few years given by Qiu Yueyi. There have been more than a hundred working meetings of all kinds in the past, and this meeting is only a rare one. But it is these ordinary and extraordinary "bricks" that pave the way, and Qiu Yueyi is getting closer and closer to her ideal!
Stubbornly persisting in the face of difficulties
In 2019, the domestic installation of Schuyler bottle washing machine, which specializes in laboratory instruments, exceeded one hundred units. When it came to the future development goal of the enterprise, Qiu Yueyi did not hesitate to say, "In 2020, we want to achieve a domestic installed capacity of two hundred units." She was interviewed with a glowing look and a torch-like gaze.
Installed volume of one hundred units, the target volume of two hundred units, these figures do not seem to be huge, but the difficulty is not small. In fact, the scientific instrument industry, known as the "eyes" of scientists, is extremely competitive, in which laboratory instruments as a key carrier of new research, the degree of application and coverage is extremely wide. In the era of technology, the huge downstream demand drove the number of laboratory instrument manufacturers to proliferate, according to statistics, at that time, as many as 200 laboratory instrument brands, new brands and old brands between the dazzling strange competition, competing brands, Shi Qiluo face the market difficulties need not be said.
In addition, because it was established in the United States and entered the Chinese market not long ago, Schuyler's brand positioning with high-tech content as the core was not yet fully accepted by domestic customers. With the old instruments in the front and the lack of customer recognition in the back, Qiu Yueyi resisted the pressure and set sail against the wind. As the helmswoman, why did Qiu Yueyi stubbornly insist on the forward direction of Shi Qilai? It starts with the reason why she joined the industry.
The germination of an idea that led to a career
According to Qiu Yueyi, she chose to major in food and science engineering in college because of her hobby. She spent the whole day in the laboratory, and was already familiar with the usage, operation specification and maintenance of various instruments. A girl's obsessive love for science and technology seems a bit alternative, but it is also this alternative love that gave her unlimited motivation to move forward in the scientific instrument industry.
Instrument trading and packaging was her first job in the industry. As time passed and experience accumulated, Qiu Yueyi found that there was room for improvement in the technology and quality of both imported and domestic instruments. At the same time, Qiu Yueyi decided to join the business when the government was promoting the localization of instruments and favorable policies in the instrument industry. Looking back, Qiu Yueyi can't hide her joy: "I like to study scientific instruments, and I also like to deal with laboratory people, and I hope I can add to the rapid development of the country's scientific instruments.
For women, how to balance family and career is an eternal problem, so the pressure on women in the workplace is much greater than that on men, and Qiu Yueyi is no exception. When running a business, all kinds of problems come up, from marketing, production, R&D, management and other different areas. Do you retreat? In Qiu Yueyi's view, there are infinite possibilities for struggle, but only failure to retreat, choose to struggle is to follow their original intention! "Use real skills to constantly improve yourself and perfect yourself, and do your best to make your products and services the best, in order to win customers and respect." In 2020, the epidemic was rampant and several industries were shut down, but as long as customers had demand, Qiu Yueyi would run to the scene as fast as possible. She travels more than 100 times a year and visits more than 30 cities to fully understand the market demand and problems, and the large amount of feedback she gets prompts significant product breakthroughs. "Our laboratory ware washing machine adopts advanced water-saving design, energy consumption is significantly lower than similar products in the market, and with small volume, large processing capacity, flexible cleaning module collocation, etc., it has gained high recognition from customers, and the repurchase rate is high, and the sales volume is climbing every year."
"Doer" is the shining label on Qiu Yueyi. She values real skills and hard techniques, and never forgets to learn and progress, so that she can walk more steadily in her career path.
Under Qiu Yueyi's leadership, Schuyler insists on the service concept of "customer first, service first" and puts customer satisfaction in the first place, and the company has fully localized its products to meet the needs of domestic users. "At present, Schuyler has offices or service points in major cities in China, with professional engineers and sufficient spare parts storage, to ensure that we can provide customers with high standard and high quality products and meticulous and efficient pre-sales, in-sales and after-sales services." Qiu Yueyi added.
The "doer" Qiu Yueyi is also a sportsman. "I think exercise is a very good way to relieve stress, so I will insist on exercising, relaxing my mind during the exercise, so that I can quickly rejuvenate."
Poised for the future
Today, with the success of Schipper, Qiu Yueyi has long since stopped limiting himself to 200 installed units and has turned his attention to a larger market. At present, Schuyler has branches and research cooperation sites in the United States and Singapore, and a modern factory is wholly owned by Schuyler at the junction of Guangzhou, Zhongshan, and Shunde, the golden triangle of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau, the Greater Bay Area in China.
However, to date, the epidemic is still not over, the pressure of business operation is not small. But talking about future planning, Qiu Yueyi still remains optimistic, in her view, a business constantly hard work, pioneering innovation, it will be able to quickly out of the predicament. She looks resolute, clear thinking, outlined in technology, service, talent three points.
Technology creates momentum and becomes the key object of development. In recent years, Shi Qilai increase research investment, improve product performance, accelerate the pace of product development. "In 2020, three new products were launched one after another, and we will continue new product output this year. In terms of service, we are more strictly controlling product quality and improving service awareness to enhance customer trust and satisfaction. In terms of talent training, Schuyler will continue to expand its team and train high quality staff. At present, Schuyler has a professional team of application engineers, which has rich experience in cleaning applications and can customize special cleaning solutions for users' cleaning difficulties, such as the cleaning of many kinds of stubborn pollutants like Chinese medicine, creams, proteins, esters, etc. Our team also has mature solutions."
The courage to pursue their dreams Achievement
Since ancient times women's "gathering culture" compared to men's "hunting culture", more of a self-driven, showing a variety of colors. This drive allows modern women not to set limits for gender, not to set limits for age, more technical professional women deserve and must be "seen".
For women who are also struggling in the workplace, Qiu Yueyi believes that only she can define herself and that becoming her ideal self never goes out of style. "Women in the new era should abandon the noise, eliminate interference, listen to their own hearts, do what they want to do with their hearts, and don't let others define you. Always put yourself into life and work with professionalism, high spirits and unyielding spirit, that is the true nature of our working women."
As she said, willing to try, take the initiative to meet the challenges, constantly broaden the possibilities and find the balance in work life, Qiu Yueyi shows a new way to open the life of modern women: resounding rose, self-confidence and self-improvement, sharpening efforts and a different kind of dash.
Qiu Yueyi, who "pursues a better self", never stops moving forward ......
