How do you approach managing legal aspects during periods of instability or crises to ensure the organisation’s resilience?
In internet business, change is regular and constancy is temporary. In the face of the changing external environment, I believe that in dealing with legal affairs, adhering to three principles: to keep the team, especially the leaders of the flexible mind and continuous learning mentality; to maintain the stability of the team and the balance of mobility, as long as the core staff is stable, mobility should be the norm; close to the business, business is the first battlefield for change, the legal only proactive close to the business, to be able to flexibly respond to the first time.
What are the main projects that you have been involved in recently?
Recently, I have been following up on China’s legislative work on the AIGCAnti-Unfair Competition and Advertising Laws and related practical issues.
What is a topic, business-related or otherwise, that you are passionate about, and why?
I am very concerned about the business of AI and its related legal affairs, because AI is a new trend in global technology development, especially the leaping development of AIGC in the past two years, which makes us come to a huge wind mouth of technological change, and it will have a far-reaching impact on all walks of life, no less than the advent of the age of steam and the age of electricity, which will prompt us to enter into the intelligent society from the industrial society, and we need to review the legal relationship between the industry and the business sector. We need to re-examine the dramatic changes in legal relationships that this will bring, and keep our legal affairs up to date with technology and the times.
