General Introduction
I am a third year master major in automation at Shanghai Jiao
Tong University, P. R. China. With tremendous interest in Industrial Engineering, I am writing to apply for acceptance into your Ph.D. graduate program.
Education background In 1995, I entered the Nanjing University of Science & Technology (NUST) -- widely considered one of the China’s best engineering schools. During the following undergraduate study, my academic records kept distinguished among the whole department. I was granted First Class Prize every semester,In 1999, I got the privilege to enter the graduate program waived of the admission test.
At the period of my graduate study, my overall GPA(3.77/4.0) ranked top 5% in the department. In the second semester, I became teacher assistant that is given to talented and matured students only. This year, I won the Acer Scholarship
as the one and only candidate in my department, which is the ultimate accolade for distinguished students endowed by my
university. Presently, I am preparing my graduation thesis and trying for the honor of Excellent Graduation Thesis.
Research experience and academic activity When a sophomore, I joined
the Association of AI Enthusiast
and began to narrow down my interest for my future research.
With the tool of OpenGL and Matlab, I designed a simulation program for transportation scheduling system. It is now widely used by different research groups in NUST. I assumed and fulfilled a sewage analysis & dispose project for Nanjing sewage treatment plant. This was my first practice to convert a laboratory idea to a commercial product.
In retrospect, I find myself standing on a solid basis in both theory and experience, which has prepared me for the Ph.D. program. My future research interests include: Network Scheduling Problem, Heuristic Algorithm research (especially in GA and Neural network), Supply chain network research, Hybrid system performance analysis with Petri nets and Data Mining.

Hello everyone, I’m so glad to be here to share the story of Cheetah Mobile. To speak frankly, I’m a little nervous because this is my first time to make an English speech without paper. I prepared the speech for a whole night, but it’s too difficult for me.
大家好，很高兴能站在这里，与大家分享猎豹移动的故事。坦白来讲，我现在有一点紧张。因为这是我第一次在大众面前进行脱稿英文演讲。为准备这场演讲，我昨晚整整一宿没睡。对我来说，确实太难了。
Just 5 years ago, We founded Cheetah Mobile. At that time Cheetah Mobile was a very small company focused on the PC-side and anti-virus. Our biggest competitor was Qihoo, which listed at the New York Stock Exchange and its valuation surpassed $10 billion. It was a huge competitor for us. And we just focused on the PC side and anti-virus and fought with Qihoo, it was too difficult for us.
五年前，猎豹移动成立。当时猎豹移动只是专注于PC端杀毒软件的一家小公司。我们最大的竞争对手是奇虎360。当时它已经在纽交所上市，市值超过100亿美金。这对我们来说无疑是个超重量级对手。那个时候，我们与奇虎在PC端杀毒软件，苦苦拼争，处境十分艰难。
5 years ago was my first trip to the US. In Palo Alto on University Ave, I thought: Why do US companies have big dreams? Why do US companies have more innovation than Chinese companies?
也就是五年前，我人生中第一次去了美国。走在加州Palo Alto的University大道，我不断思索：为什么美国公司总有一个巨大的梦想?为什么美国公司比中国公司有更多创新?
The dream is the biggest difference between US and Chinese people. Think big, think different was the biggest point to change our thoughts.
我认为，梦想是美国人和中国人最大的差异。敢做更大的梦，敢为天下先，将是改变我们中国人思维最关键的一点。
I thought: Why can’t Chinese companies go outside of China? Why can’t Chinese companies become a global company? Even though we’re a small company, even though we’re not good enough, we can have such a good dream, such a big dream.
我总在思考，为什么中国公司不能走出国门?为什么中国公司不能成为全球化的公司?尽管我们只是一家小公司，尽管我们各个方面做的都还不够好，但我们仍然可以拥有这样远大的梦想。
3 years ago, Cheetah Mobile adjusted our strategy to from the Chinese market to the global market and we changed our product from the PC side to the mobile side. Just after 3 years, we can see now by monthly downloads, Cheetah Mobile was the #2 publisher on Google Play only next to Facebook. We even surpassed Google.
三年前，猎豹移动调整了策略。把目标从中国市场移到了全球市场上。把产品平台从PC端改为移动端。三年后，我们看到，按月下载量计算，猎豹移动已成为Google Play全球排名第二的应用发行商。仅次于Facebook，甚至超过Google。
And our monthly active users today on the mobile side is over 500 million. And 70 percent of our users come from outside of China. Just 2 years ago, our monthly active users were 40 million, so we’ve surpassed 10x since then.
今天，我们的移动端月活跃用户数，已超过5亿，70%来自海外。就在两年前，我们的月跃用户还仅仅只有4000万。到现在，月活跃用户数增长了整整超出10倍以上。
On the growth rate, Cheetah Mobile’s growth speed is surpassing WhatsApp and WeChat in the first two years. So actually, now we are the biggest utility and security developer all over the world on the mobile side. It happened just in three years. But how did it happen?
