In the past 10 years or so, Betteni steadily incubated China’s No. 1 functional skin care brand-“Winona”, and took the lead in the golden track for sensitive skin. In 2021, Betteni quickly broke through 100 billion in market value within one month of listing, becoming the company with the highest market value in China’s cosmetics industry so far. Recently, in just three months after the A-share listing, Betteni launched a plan to go public in Hong Kong, significantly accelerating the internationalization and multi-brand layout, pointing directly to the blueprint of “China’s skin health ecological enterprise”. Such a fast pace of development and huge potential value are quite eye-catching.

On the market side, they also voted “yes” with practical actions. On June 18, Betteni’s stock price rose again, closing at 257.98 yuan per share, with a market value of 109.3 billion yuan.

Looking further, how did Betteni establish the blueprint of “China’s skin health ecological enterprise”? What is the latest result?

There is room for multiplication in the core track, high repurchase rate and strong supervision help the strong to become Hengqiang

According to previous financial reports, Dermatology-grade skin care products, as Betteni’s basic products, have driven its performance to continue to increase. For the whole year of 2020, Betteni achieved revenue of 2.636 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 35.64%; net profit attributable to parent company was 544 million, a year-on-year increase of 31.94%. Among them, the revenue of cosmetics accounted for 90.07%. In the first quarter of 2021, Betteni’s revenue was 507 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 59.32%; net profit attributable to the parent was 79 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 46.5%.

Looking to the future, it is still an important yardstick for measuring Betteni’s development space. Affected by the popularization of market education in China’s new media and live broadcasts, China’s dermatology-grade skin care product market has grown rapidly. In 2019, the market size reached 13.6 billion yuan, a growth rate of 33%, far higher than the global market’s 4% growth rate. However, in the same year, the per capita consumption of dermatology-grade skin care products in China was only 1.2 US dollars, which is quite different from the mature markets in developed countries. Compared to South Korea’s 3.9 US dollars, the penetration rate of China’s dermatological skin care products market has at least three times the room for growth.

At the same time, this track has market characteristics such as high repurchase rate and strong supervision, which makes it easier to help the strong to stay strong. According to the “Sensitive Skin Care Products Market Research Report”, 92% of the population will repurchase sensitive skin care products, that is, consumers with sensitive skin have higher brand stickiness, which makes it more difficult for new companies to enter. Supervision is also stricter, especially the “Cosmetic Efficacy Evaluation Specification” will be officially implemented on May 1, 2021. The “Specifications” require cosmetic claims to have sufficient scientific basis. The establishment of industry standards has further improved the entry of sensitive muscles. Barriers are conducive to leading enterprises that regulate their operations. After a long period of academic and word-of-mouth accumulation, Betteni has become the leader in skin care for sensitive skin. In 2020, Betteni’s market share in China’s dermatological cosmetics market will reach 21.6%, surpassing major international brands such as Avène, Vichy, and La Roche-Posay. In terms of “Winona”, it became the only domestic brand on the top ten list of Tmall Double Eleven sales in the same year. The product repurchase rate in the past three years was about 30%, and the repurchase rate of international big-name skin care products was also Only around 20%. So there is reason to expect, It is difficult for players to replace Betteni’s market position in the short term, and it is expected to continue its high growth momentum under the logic of the strong. It also means that it has the capacity and space to match a larger business scale, and then incubate new industries around the “skin health ecology”. The multi-brand matrix has been progressing in an orderly manner, and the H-share listing will accelerate this process In terms of specific progress, in addition to the main brand “Winona”, Betteni also owns a number of sub-brands. Among them, “WINONA Baby” is based on the professional infant and child care track, “Acne Care” focuses on acne skin care, and “Beauty Answers” focuses on precision repair, anti-oxidation and anti-aging after medical art. Positioned as a dry skin care brand. In the 2020 annual report, Betteni also stated that in 2021, it will continue to implement a multi-brand plan through intensive cultivation and extensional acquisitions. Intuitively, Betteni’s multi-brand matrix on the one hand expands the scope of the audience and further opens up space for users. On the other hand, it fully meets the needs of users for segmentation and meets the shopping demands of young consumers. It may be based on the brand matrix. Improve brand exposure and favorability. and, The R&D, channels and other resources accumulated by Betteni earlier can be more fully utilized to quickly promote the development of the new brand. Take “WINONA Baby” as an example. This brand is the first brand in China to conduct in-depth exploration through clinical observation of children from newborns to two-year-olds. It was co-created by Betteni and National Pediatric Dermatologist Professor Ma Lin and other experts through medical research. Exclusive skin care products for babies and toddlers. At the same time, it is understood that “WINONA Baby” will use OTC pharmacies and online as the main channels, with core functionalities. This is highly overlapped with the channel network of “Winona”. At the same time, Betteni is advancing the channel construction and alliance cooperation of medical aesthetics institutions to lay a good foundation for medical aesthetics promotion. On this basis, with the advancement of H-share listings, the layout of the Bettenido brand ecosystem may be further accelerated. This move will undoubtedly help the Betteni and Winona brands to increase their overseas visibility. At the same time, Betteni can stabilize the equity structure through the “A+H” approach and achieve efficient acquisition of overseas high-quality brand assets. Betteni also publicly stated: “Whether it is to build a new brand, lay out a new track, or promote the market from China to the world, build an international brand, and go public in Hong Kong is a good choice for Betteni.” summary It can be seen that Betteni’s development path is to focus on the skin health segmentation track, seize the leading position, build a solid barrier, and then expand the industry and market around the “skin health ecology”, returning to the multi-brand strategy defined in the initial period. . As Betteni’s business performance continues to increase and gains high recognition from the market, the opportunity to return to the multi-brand strategy is gradually coming. In the future, Betteni may no longer be limited to cosmetics, but will become an industry provider of “skin health ecology”, opening up a broader space for growth

Qi Yumin seriously violated the party’s political discipline, organizational discipline, integrity discipline, work discipline, and life discipline, constituted a violation of the law and was suspected of crimes of bribery, embezzlement of public funds, and abuse of power by state-owned company personnel. They still do not converge or close their hands after the university, their nature is bad, and the circumstances are serious. They should be dealt with seriously. In accordance with the “Chinese Communist Party Disciplinary Sanctions Regulations”, “The Supervision Law of the People’s Republic of China”, “The Law of the People’s Republic of China on Governmental Sanctions of Public Officials” and other relevant regulations, the Provincial Disciplinary Committee Standing Committee meeting researched and reported to the Provincial Party Committee for approval, and decided to give Qi Yumin expelled from the party; Cancel the treatment they enjoy in accordance with the regulations; collect their income from violations of discipline and law; transfer their suspected crimes to the procuratorial organ for review and prosecution in accordance with the law, and transfer the property involved together.

On December 4 last year, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission issued a notice stating that according to the Liaoning Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, the former party secretary and chairman of Brilliance Automobile Group Holdings Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Brilliance Group”) Qi Yumin was suspected of serious violations of discipline and law. , Is currently undergoing disciplinary review and supervision and investigation.

According to the official resume, Qi Yumin was born in January 1959. After graduating from Shaanxi Institute of Mechanical Engineering in 1982, he joined Dalian Heavy Machinery Factory and served as deputy director and director of the Economic Planning Department. In 1995, he served as the deputy director of Dazhong Group Corporation. Manager, served as general manager of Dazhong Group Corporation in 1998.

In 2000, Qi Yumin served as chairman and general manager of Dalian Heavy Industry Group Co., Ltd., and the following year as chairman and general manager of Dalian Heavy Industry Lifting Group Co., Ltd. In 2004, Qi Yumin served as the deputy mayor of Dalian.

At the end of December 2005, Qi Yumin was transferred to Brilliance Group as the party secretary and chairman of the board. Many years later, Qi Yumin said frankly in an interview with the media, “It was sudden, very tragic, ignorant and helpless to get the transfer order.” It is reported that the Brilliance Group at the time was still in the aftershocks of the Yangrong incident. The middle-level lost dealers fled and suffered serious losses. Qi Yumin, who arrived at that time, was once regarded as the “fire-fighting captain.”

After that, Qi Yumin cashed out on the capital market through Brilliance’s capital operation team, realizing the supplement to Brilliance’s capital. According to the Securities Daily, Qi Yumin clearly stated in an exclusive interview at the company’s 10th anniversary meeting: “Brilliance Auto’s development over the years has mostly relied on its own financing. Therefore, the financing capabilities of the capital market and Brilliance’s capital The multi-channel financing of development by the market is the key support for the development of independent brands.”

Qi Yumin also allowed Brilliance to obtain technical support through cooperation with BMW.

The industry generally believes that in the ten years of cooperation with BMW, Brilliance can not only lie down and make money, but also actually taste the sweetness of “using the market for technology”.However, Brilliance, whose development capability is too weak, has been unable to digest BMW’s technology, and its sales in its independent sector have also been declining, and its market share has been shrinking..

According to the Beijing News, in 2015, Brilliance Zhonghua’s small SUV Zhonghua V3 was officially launched. At that time, Qi Yumin set a goal: China V3 will be a pattern changer in China’s small SUV market;He repeatedly stated, “Before I retire, I must make Brilliance into the Fortune 500.”However, China V3 did not realize Qi Yumin’s sustenance. In 2017 and 2018, the sales of China V3 declined year after year, with annual sales of 36,000 and 12,500, respectively, down 52% and 65.27% year-on-year..

Finally, on October 11, 2018, at the 15th anniversary celebration of BMW Brilliance, Brilliance Group and BMW Group jointly announced that Brilliance Group intends to sell 25% of the shares in BMW Brilliance to BMW Group by 2022, the transaction price is RMB 29 billion yuan,BMW Brilliance will become the first vehicle joint venture company controlled by a foreign party. This has caused Qi Yumin to suffer from public controversy.

Qi Yumin later revealed when he was a guest on CCTV that the prerequisite for BMW’s negotiations at the time was a 75% share ratio, and everything could be discussed, but the share ratio could not be discussed. As a result, Brilliance had to negotiate two agreements with the other party: First, to make the pie of the joint venture bigger, at least to double it, “otherwise it would be meaningless to liberalize the equity ratio.” In addition, the shareholders of both parties have to obtain greater economic benefits,”Three and a half years later, Brilliance has changed from 50 to 25, but the benefits of 25 must be greater than the current 50.”.

On April 1, 2019, when he retired from Brilliance Group, Qi Yumin said with emotion, “The past was cleared, love and hate are at will, I hope Brilliance will always be well”. But now, Qi Yumin and Brilliance are both running counter to the vision.

Brilliance Group went bankrupt and reorganized last year

According to the official website of Brilliance Group, the company has 4 listed companies (Brilliance China Automotive Holdings Co., Ltd., Shanghai Shenhua Holdings Co., Ltd., Jinbei Automobile Co., Ltd., and Xinchen China Power Holdings Co., Ltd.), and more than 160 wholly-owned, holding and shareholding companies the company. There are 47,000 employees,Total assets exceed 190 billion yuan.

Last year, Brilliance had many operating problems. Since July last year,Brilliance Group was caught in a debt turmoil, was exposed to 100 billion yuan in debt, and many equity shares were frozen. In August, Dagong International and Oriental Jincheng successively included Brilliance Group and its multiple bonds on the rating watch list. In September, both Orient Jincheng and Dagong International downgraded Brilliance Group’s main credit rating, among which Dongfang Jincheng downgraded to AA+ and Dagong International directly downgraded it to AA. On October 16, Oriental Jincheng once again downgraded Brilliance Group’s main credit rating to AA-. On October 21, Dagong International downgraded the main credit rating of Brilliance Group to A+.

On November 16 of that year, Brilliance Group disclosed thatThe company has constituted a total debt default amount of 6.5 billion yuan and overdue interest amount of 144 million yuan. Due to the shortage of corporate funds, the renewal credit approval has not been completed, resulting in failure to repay. Then on November 20, the Shenyang Intermediate People’s Court ruled to accept the creditor personality Zhizhi Automobile Technology Co., Ltd.’s application for reorganization of Brilliance Group.Brilliance Group officially entered the bankruptcy reorganization process.

The court’s ruling stated that the assets of Brilliance Group were insufficient to pay off all its debts, and that it had bankruptcy reasons stipulated in the Corporate Bankruptcy Law. But at the same time, the group has the value and possibility of salvation, and the necessity and feasibility of reorganization.

For driving to this position, according to the relevant person in charge of the Liaoning Provincial SASAC,Brilliance Group’s long-term poor operation and management, its own brands have been in a state of loss, and the debt ratio remains high. Since 2018, the Liaoning Provincial Government and relevant departments have been working hard to help Brilliance Group solve its cash flow problems, but its debt problems have been accumulated. This year, affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the operating conditions of Brilliance Group’s own brands have further deteriorated, and long-term accumulated debt problems have erupted. According to the semi-annual report of Brilliance Group this year, the total liabilities at the group level are 52.376 billion yuan, the debt-to-asset ratio exceeds 110%, and the financing capacity is lost. In order to solve the debt problem, the relevant parties established the Brilliance Group Bank Debt Committee to seek debt reconciliation, but failed.

On the day that Brilliance Group officially entered the bankruptcy and reorganization process, the China Securities Regulatory Commission stated,Special inspections have been carried out on Brilliance Automobile Group in accordance with the law, the administrative supervision measures of issuing warning letters have been taken against Brilliance Group, and it has been decided to file an investigation for suspected violations of information disclosure., Conduct simultaneous inspections of intermediaries involved in the Brilliance Group’s bonds, and strictly investigate and deal with violations of laws and regulations.

Could you tell me, what is the position and role of the press in the business? Over the years, I have worked at the Provincial Business Association, joined the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI), I have realized that the press plays a big role in the development of the business community. Newspapers help businesses promote images, brands and products to the public. News in the press also helps businesses capture diverse information, especially domestic and foreign market information, giving businesses more data to shape production and business activities, perfect their strategies. business development strategy. Mr. Tran Khac Tam – Chairman of Soc Trang Province Business Association, Vice Chairman of the Council of Business Associations in the Mekong Delta, Member of the Executive Committee of VCCI. The press helps the business community raise policy recommendations to the State, in order to develop policies and laws for socio-economic development, helping the business community to constantly grow. The press also pointed out the non-standard things and shortcomings in production and business activities, helping enterprises to recognize and evaluate their activities, increasingly improve and develop businesses within the legal framework. the law. Personally, I have many good memories with reporters in the role of a member of the National Assembly, a member of the People’s Council, Chairman of the Provincial Business Association, etc. They help me convey my opinions and recommendations to the authorities, to general public. Currently, the rise of the social network has changed the method of information, brand promotion and image of businesses, weakening the advantage and position of the press. So, does the press still play an important role in business activities? It is clear that when social networks develop, the emergence of transnational platforms such as Facebook, Youtube, Google, Tiktok …, the press encounters fierce competition in both information and business aspects. advertising revenue. I was told by some leaders of press agencies that advertising and communication activities are difficult because businesses have other options. I understand and share with the press agencies, because once such a “cake” or has grown, it is not worth much but must be divided into more parts, the fiercer competition for shares is obviously difficult. more difficult. The press is the ideological and cultural force and also the business units to maintain operations and development. What about the information aspect, I find that with the use of today’s easy media, each person holding a smartphone can post information and express opinions very quickly and diversely. . Some people say that every facebooker can also become a “journalist” – citizen. Thus, the press has to compete for information with social networks, and in fact, there are cases where the press has gone behind social networks. However, I believe that social media cannot take away the position of the press. Despite fierce competition, which greatly affects journalism activities, social networks cannot replace journalism. I still read the press every day because there is official information, with statements, with verification, many issues are laid out methodically, multi-dimensional and complete information has been provided by reporters and editors. evaluation, screening, investigation, thorough interview. For the operation and development of the business community, I can confirm that the press still plays a very important role. So, in your opinion, is the press and business a reciprocal, symbiotic relationship? In the development of the press, businesses also play a significant role, newspapers and television stations attract significant financial resources from product promotion and communication activities for businesses. The activities of newspapers, television and radio stations are also production and business activities. Giving and receiving always take place in the process of interaction for a common goal of socio-economic development, building a richer and more civilized country. The business community and the press are not two opposing forces. Enterprises develop production and business activities, create material wealth for the society, and create jobs for employees. The press reports, analyzes and comments on social, policy and economic issues…, protects the right, fights against the wrong, and ensures social justice. Newspapers and businesses must operate within the framework of the law, especially the Enterprise Law and the Press Law. If operating in accordance with the law, there cannot be a situation where the press causes difficulties for businesses, and vice versa, businesses cannot cause difficulties for press activities. Dr. Tran Khac Tam in a regular meeting of the 13th National Assembly as a National Assembly member. Power always goes hand in hand with responsibility. So, what are your views on the role of the press in today’s social life? The power of the press is the power of public, transparent and fair information, the power of reason and the legal order. In the West they see the press as the “fourth power”, alongside legislative, executive and judicial powers, although this is not constitutional. It is a way of honoring the role of the press in social life. In our country, the press is a sharp ideological “weapon” of the Party and State, a bridge between the Party, the State and the people, an important means of propagating socio-economic development, building construction building the Party and political system, is a forum for the people to participate in social management, monitor power, and realize the goal of a rich people, strong country, democracy, justice and civilization. As society develops, the information needs of the whole society are also increasing. Information becomes a power, having a direct impact on the management and organization of social life, on habits, perceptions, moods, emotions and actions of each individual. Access to information becomes an important need in modern society; in which the main means to bring information to the public is the press and media. It can be affirmed that the more society develops, the more the press and media have a particularly important position, role and mission in the daily life of each country and nation. Therefore, the press must always protect the right, fight against the wrong in order to make social life healthy, for the law to be enforced and to ensure social justice. Reality has proven that during the process of national construction and development, many journalists have been like soldiers fighting corruption and negativity, protecting the weak. I hope that tradition will be maintained and promoted so that our revolutionary journalism continues its glorious path. Sincerely thank you!

Like how he surprised, this press conference was no exception. Accordingly, from June 14, many people “fall back” when they received the notice of the CEO of this tens of billions of dollars in the status line on their personal Facebook: “Press conference will be held tomorrow Tuesday, June 15, 2021 on YouTube broadcast at 9:00 AM – 11:30 AM “. Mr. Nguyen Vu Quoc Anh, General Director of Auto Investment Group in an online “press conference”. The CEO’s online “press conference” attracted hundreds of views at the same time with the same number of comments. Most of them are people out of curiosity, want to see how. The content of the comments were all encapsulated in the advice of Nguyen Vu Quoc Anh “to be confused, less explosive, less delusional”. Some people also think that the CEO of Auto Investment Group is “crazy” when holding a press conference but only monologues with the computer. At the beginning of the story, Nguyen Vu Quoc Anh shared the company’s “great” ambition with the desire to digitally transform businesses and state agencies as well as individual business households; oriented to become a technology corporation representing Vietnam to the world to compete with other illustrious corporations to bring foreign currency to Vietnam. “This year’s revenue is expected to be about 10,000 billion from July to December. Since we have not been able to promote the markets of India, the US and China, I have not been able to open it yet, at the end of this June I will open the markets. this to bring in revenue for our market.Of course people think the number is huge but to me it is nothing. In 2022, I have to bring in 1 billion USD, don’t say our corporation is a startup, I am not a statup, if you think I am a startup, you are wrong. We go 500 times faster than the startup, next year’s revenue of 1 billion USD is not big for me, only approximately 25,000 billion VND. By 2023 – 2025 trying to bring in 30 billion USD, this number is formidable. We will cover 250 countries… In 2025-2027, the revenue is 50 billion USD, this number is really not small but also not big with our vision. In 2025, we will build a financial business center and automatic replication in Vietnam, if it is favorable, we will build 17 buildings representing 17 of our companies. Investment capital is about 30 billion USD, I said I will make it. CEO Auto Investment Group promises. The online “press conference” of the “big CEO” attracted hundreds of views at the same time with the same number of comments. With these huge numbers, it seems that everyone will pay special attention, but most followers just want to know how much money Anh’s huge corporation has “stored” in the account. However, his answer was once again shocking: “I have a lot of gray matter, I don’t have money right now, but if I have gray matter, I will have it all” . To make the argument convincing, Mr. Nguyen Vu Quoc Anh mentioned potential investment sources that can be easily mobilized: “Please Mr. Hai, Mr. Ba, Mr. Tu, Mr. Nam (big businesses in Vietnam) to support his brother, each person contributing a few billion dollars to the youngest brother is also an ok number… I want you alone. youngest brother, I wish my parents were the State. My brother and I are the big men of Vietnam who have the support of the youngest, of course we go out and play with them. It’s as simple as that.” For more than 1 hour “hosting the online press conference”, the information “remains” in the followers that this is an 8X CEO with “superior talent”. Because, through the information shared, it can be confirmed that at the moment, Nguyen Vu Quoc Anh does not have much. According to the research of PV VTC News, the Global Auto Technology Investment Group Joint Stock Company has its head office located on the 46th floor, Bitexco Financial Tower building (2 Hai Trieu Street, Ben Nghe, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City). .HCM). This company has 3 founding shareholders, in which Mr. Nguyen Vu Quoc Anh contributed VND 499,998 billion and 2 other individuals contributed VND 1 billion each, Nguyen Thi Diem Hang and Luu Huu Thien. The comments are all encapsulated in the advice of Nguyen Vu Quoc Anh to “be less confused, less explosive, less delusional”. Immediately after the announcement, this information immediately attracted the attention of many people. Because with the above charter capital, this enterprise is far ahead of the leading economic groups in Vietnam at the moment. However, according to the actual research of PV VTC News, the office address on the 46th floor, Bitexco Financial Tower building that Mr. Nguyen Vu Quoc Anh registered the company’s headquarters in is a virtual office. This office is currently operated by Compass Office (an enterprise specializing in providing virtual and serviced office rental services). Currently, the group’s only location is the private house of the CEO of 8X himself, an old grade 4 house on 3rd Street (Neighborhood 2, Phuoc Binh Ward, Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh City).

The first dose of COVID-19 vaccine for the group, the first phase of priority subjects in Hai Phong. Photo: An Dang/VNA Too many clues but still confused At working sessions, representatives of grassroots trade unions all said that during the COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control period, relevant units and departments required establishments to provide too much duplicate information. Ms. Tran Thi Thuy, Chairman of the Trade Union of Greating Fortune Conainer Joint Stock Company (Dinh Vu Industrial Park), said that at times of complicated developments in the COVID-19 epidemic, every day she received a request to report from many different governing bodies on the same content. In some cases, the unit sent a report by email, but the state management agency did not respond to the receipt, and then requested to send an official letter with a fresh stamp recognizing it as a valid document. According to Ms. Thuy, in addition to trade union work, cadres like Ms. Thuy also have to undertake professional work at the enterprise. Therefore, the overlap in direction has created great pressure for those who are concurrently. In addition to the problem related to the report, the representatives of businesses also suggested to the departments and branches of Hai Phong city that the city’s functional agencies need to have a reasonable plan in the large-scale testing and screening. with workers. Ms. Dao Thi Thu Trang, Chairman of the Trade Union of Nam Dinh Vu Industrial Park, said that many businesses in the industrial park think that testing and screening 50% of the employees in the business is only a temporary solution. , because it is likely that among those who have not been tested there are also risk factors. Moreover, when workers have tested negative, they themselves will be subjective in epidemic prevention and control. Regarding the development of scenarios to respond to the COVID-19 epidemic, a representative of Dai Duong Electronics Company Limited (An Duong Industrial Park), said that during the screening test, the company had 5 suspect sample. As soon as they heard the information, the company’s partners from food and drink suppliers to other delivery units refused to deliver and receive goods for epidemic prevention and control. Meanwhile, thousands of employees have to stay at the company to wait for test results. Although there was a scenario of epidemic prevention and control before, the company was very confused to respond, not knowing which unit to call first to seek support. Need consistency in planning kế According to representatives of businesses, in order to remove obstacles about information focal points, state management agencies related to companies in economic zones and industrial parks need to have a connection in accessing documents and numbers. information content. Ms. Le Thi Thu Giang, Chairman of the Trade Union of Cheveron Lubricants Vietnam Co., Ltd., said that during the epidemic, all needed urgency, accuracy and efficiency. Therefore, the receipt of information reported through online channels of state management agencies must be recognized as official information. Agencies such as tax, economic zone management board, and trade union need to build a common software to receive and process documents to save time for both the receiving unit and the information processing unit. . To ensure the health and safety of workers, all businesses have suggested that the Hai Phong city government and the Government should prioritize the source of vaccines for workers at businesses. This will ensure 2 benefits, both saving costs for businesses and ensuring effective epidemic prevention and control. A representative of an enterprise said that each combined test sample costs more than 350,000 VND, if each enterprise has to test 50% of its employees, businesses with a large number of workers have to spend billions of dong to test. screening while this job is only temporary, while some businesses are in a very difficult period due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic. On the other hand, foreign-invested companies will have to report to the parent company a lot of content related to financial issues. Therefore, the directions on testing or vaccination need to agree on the number and time for businesses to have grounds to report. Receiving opinions from representatives of grassroots union presidents, Chairman of the Hai Phong Confederation of Labor Tong Van Bang said that the city’s Confederation of Labor would make specific reports to the city’s leaders, and at the same time requested relevant units to promptly handle problems to remove difficulties for businesses while still ensuring the requirements of disease prevention and control.

Introduce the concept of digital government for the first time Digital government is essentially e-government, with changes in approach and implementation thanks to the development of digital technology. Therefore, when we say that developing digital government means developing e-government, digital government includes e-government. Illustration E-Government, in simple terms, is the “four Nos”, capable of meeting face-to-face, processing paperless documents, handling contactless administrative procedures and making non-cash payments. Digital government is e-government, adding “four Yess”, having all safe actions in the digital environment, being able to provide new services quickly, having the ability to use resources optimally, and being able to ability to create development, lead the country’s digital transformation, effectively solve major problems in socio-economic development and management. The strategic vision is to raise a high flag The vision is that Vietnam has a high level of e-government and digital government development index in the world, belongs to the top 50 leading countries by 2025, and belongs to the top 30 countries by 2030 according to the ranking of the World Bank. United Nations. Raise a high flag, which means a big mission and goal, to gather forces and attract talents both at home and abroad to join. When Vietnamese people join hands and unite, difficulties and challenges will become smaller. For the first time, localities will develop plans to secure annual funding from the state budget for digital government, striving for a higher spending rate than the world average. Countries currently spend about 1-2% of total state budget spending on digital government, in particular, some countries such as Singapore and South Korea spend a higher percentage. Strategic thinking is fast action In the fourth industrial revolution, countries that pioneer, go ahead and act quickly will have the opportunity to develop breakthroughs. In other words, in the digital age, it is not the big fish that eat the small fish, but the fast fish that swallow the slow fish. The strategy sets out the basic goal of completing e-government development targets by 2021 and forming a digital government by 2025. Breakthrough solution is to use open platform and orientation The digital platform is identified as a breakthrough solution to promote faster digital government development, reduce costs, and increase efficiency. The platform was created by excellent digital technology businesses, allowing agencies, organizations and individuals to use it as a service instead of having to invest and operate it themselves. Open orientation for people, businesses and other organizations to appropriately participate in the activities of state agencies, interact with state agencies to jointly enhance transparency, improve service quality, and solve problems and jointly create value for society. Not only serving people, businesses and society As before, usually, developing e-government sets the goal of better serving people, businesses and society. This strategy also aims to equip working tools so that cadres, civil servants and public employees can best perform their tasks, that is, virtual assistants or platforms for working and collaborating on the environment. number.

The decision clearly states, developing a digital government that has all safe operations in the digital environment, has a redesigned operating model and operates based on data and digital technology, to be able to provide services. better service, make more timely decisions, issue better policies, use resources more optimally, create development, lead the country’s digital transformation, effectively solve major problems in the world. socio-economic development and management. Develop a comprehensive and comprehensive digital government, promote the achieved results, focus resources, mobilize the participation of the whole political system, have solutions and ways to do breakthroughs and differences. , to basically complete the e-Government development targets by 2021 and form a digital government by 2025. Open orientation for people, businesses and other organizations to appropriately participate in the activities of state agencies, interact with state agencies to jointly enhance transparency, improve service quality, and solve problems and jointly create value for society. Data is the new resource. State agencies open data and provide open data for the development of digital government, digital economy and digital society. State agencies connect and share data so that people only have to declare and provide data once to state agencies and essential public service providers. Platforms are breakthrough solutions. Combining centralized and distributed deployment model, complying with Vietnam E-Government Architecture Framework and Architecture of ministries, branches and localities. Developing platforms in the direction of providing synchronous and smooth services at administrative levels so that they can be used anywhere. National platforms, applications and services must be made first, done well, centralized. The domestic market nurtures and develops digital technology products Make in Vietnam, thereby reaching out to the region and the world. The Government actively coordinates, plans and implements market-oriented and market-creating activities with the dual goals of developing the digital government and developing Vietnam’s digital technology enterprises. Diversifying in scale, aiming to master and develop core technologies and open platforms for Digital Government, forming an ecosystem of Make in Vietnam applications and services. Belonging to the top 30 countries according to the ranking of the United Nations Regarding the vision to 2030, the Decision clearly states: Vietnam has a high level of development index of e-Government and digital government in the world, among the top 30 countries ranked by the United Nations. Developing digital government requires a breakthrough and different way of doing things. Digital government transforms the way to serve people and businesses, reducing costs, increasing business productivity, creating facilitation, bringing people’s satisfaction, so that people and businesses can participate more in activities. action of state agencies to jointly create values, benefits, satisfaction, trust and social consensus. The digital government transforms the organization, operation, working environment and working tools so that officials, civil servants and public employees can best perform their tasks. Targets to 2025, for the provision of quality services to serve society: State agencies to reduce, restructure, simplify, standardize and unify administrative procedures in service of society across the country. nationwide scope. State agencies provide new services on the principle of ensuring service quality, reducing costs, and increasing social labor productivity in a proactive and timely manner to meet the needs of society. People and businesses can use digital services according to their personalized needs, throughout their lives, when needed, in a convenient way, online or in person, easily, simply, quickly, and without paper. , no presence is required unless required by law. Some basic criteria include: 100% of administrative procedures eligible under the law are provided in the form of online public services level 4. 100% of online public services are designed, redesigned to optimize the user experience, when used, are pre-filled with data that the user has provided previously under the agreement, in accordance with quality standards service. 100% of people and businesses using online public services are identified and authenticated smoothly, unified on all systems of government levels from central to local. At least 80% of administrative records are processed completely online, people only have to enter data once; at least 90% of people and businesses are satisfied with the handling of administrative procedures; at least 20% of administrative procedures of state agencies will be reduced compared to the current one. 100% state agencies provide 24/7 service For the goal of optimal operation of state agencies’ activities, some basic criteria include: 100% of state agencies provide 24/7 service, ready to serve online at any time. people and businesses need. 100% of civil servants are assigned digital identifiers in job processing. 100% of the direction, administration and internal governance of state agencies are carried out on the basis of overall and unified governance. 100% of documents exchanged between state agencies are carried out in electronic form, digitally signed by specialized digital signatures, except for confidential documents as prescribed by law. 90% of work records at ministerial and provincial levels; 80% of work records at the district level and 60% of work records at the commune level are processed on the internet (except for work records that are state secret). 100% of the reporting work is done on the national reporting information system. 100% of records are created, kept and shared electronically according to regulations. 100% of state agencies at ministerial and provincial levels have a centralized analysis and data processing platform, and application of artificial intelligence to optimize operations. At least 50% of supervision and inspection activities of the management agency are carried out through the digital environment and the information system of the management agency. At least 70% of the contents of the training program, entrance exam, state management promotion exam to the rank of specialist, main specialist, senior specialist or equivalent shall be conducted online. 100% of cadres, civil servants and public employees are trained, fostered and universalized basic digital skills; 50% of cadres, civil servants and public employees are trained and fostered skills in analysis, data mining and digital technology. In addition to specific objectives and targets and tasks of ministries and local branches, the Decision also mentions key national tasks, including: Improving the legal environment; digital infrastructure development; develop digital platforms and national scale systems; develop national digital data; development of national applications and services; ensure the safety and security of the national network.

This is the first time the Government has introduced the concept of Digital Government. Accordingly, digital government is essentially e-government, with changes in approach and implementation thanks to the development of digital technology. “Solving administrative procedures without contact” is one of the four criteria of e-Government. Photo: VGP. The strategy clearly states that by 2030, Vietnam is in the group of 30 leading countries in the development index of e-government and digital government according to the United Nations ranking. Digital government will transform the way people and businesses are served. From there, it helps to reduce costs, increase the productivity of businesses, create favorable conditions, and bring satisfaction to people. The ultimate goal is for people and businesses to participate more in the activities of state agencies, jointly creating values, benefits, satisfaction, trust and social consensus. The digital government also transforms the way it is organised, operated, working environment and tools so that cadres, civil servants and public employees can best perform their duties. For each stage, specific goals are set with basic targets. By 2025, the strategy sets five goals including providing quality services to serve society; widely mobilize the participation of society; optimal operation of state agencies’ activities; effectively solve major problems in socio-economic development, and make breakthrough changes in national ranking. Regarding the national key tasks, the strategy clearly states 6 tasks including: Perfecting the legal environment, developing digital infrastructure; develop digital platforms and national scale systems; develop national digital data; development of national applications and services; ensure the safety and security of the national network. These six tasks are also the key tasks of ministries, branches and localities to implement within their respective sectors, domains and localities. The strategy clearly states 10 solutions for implementation, including solutions on: Organization, apparatus, network; training and fostering digital skills; propaganda, dissemination and awareness raising; cooperation between state agencies and enterprises; researching, developing and mastering core technologies; standardization and restructuring of business processes; international cooperation… According to Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung, e-Government targets will be basically completed in 2021, with a focus on level 4 online public services reaching 100%. The digital government will be formed in 2025. Accordingly, government services are provided automatically 24/7 according to demand, new public services are provided in a timely manner and on the basis of open data. Digital government is essentially e-government, with changes in approach and implementation thanks to the development of digital technology. Therefore, when we say that developing digital government means developing e-government, digital government includes e-government. E-Government, simply understood, is the “four Nos”, including the ability to meet face-to-face, process paperless documents, handle contactless administrative procedures and make non-cash payments. Digital government is e-government, adding “four Yess”, having all safe actions in the digital environment, being able to provide new services quickly, having the ability to use resources optimally, and being able to ability to create development, lead the country’s digital transformation, effectively solve major problems in socio-economic development and management.

Therefore, determining the factors affecting the quality of accounting information systems in Vietnamese garment enterprises is a matter of great concern, helping garment enterprises to find the important factors to improve the accounting information system in particular and the information system in the enterprise in general in order to promptly meet the requirements of system users and effectively serve the administration. Question Accounting is a set of procedures, methods and techniques, including the identification, monitoring, recording, processing, storage, systematization, valuation, control and publication of phenomena affecting to the assets, financial position and profit of the enterprise (enterprise), ensuring conditions for continuous operation. The accounting information system (IT) has an influence on the effectiveness of budgeting, reporting, auditing and control activities (Soudani, 2012). The accounting information system has a close relationship with the management information system, the accounting information provided by the accounting information system is important in making decisions of managers and external parties (Tóth, 2012). . With the role of the accounting information system, studying the impact of factors on the implementation of the accounting information system is necessary for enterprises. Garment industry is a key industry of Vietnam. In recent years, Vietnam’s garment industry has made great strides and rose to become one of the five largest textile and garment producing and exporting countries in the world. The event that Vietnam joins the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) has brought many potential benefits to Vietnam’s textile and garment industry, bringing domestic textile enterprises many opportunities and challenges. knowledge in the short and long term. In order to improve the competitiveness of Vietnamese garment enterprises, the provision of accounting information is essential for management and decision-making. Therefore, determining the factors affecting the quality of the technical information system in Vietnamese garment enterprises is a matter of great concern, helping garment enterprises to find the important factors to improve the economic information system in particular and the economic information system in particular. information systems in the enterprise in general in order to promptly meet the requirements of system users and effectively serve the administration. Theoretical basis System Theory Systems theory has been around in the world since the 1940s (Bertalanffy, 1969). Based on the theory of systems, the accounting information system in enterprises is a subsystem of the management information system. Therefore, when studying the technical information system, it is necessary to consider the management information system as well. When considering measures to improve the effectiveness of the accounting information system, it is also necessary to put the accounting information system in the context of the enterprise and in relation to other parts of the enterprise. Based on the theory of systems, this study considers the theoretical background of the information systems in general, and also examines the relationship between the accounting systems and the information systems and other parts closely related to the information systems. The system theory provided for this study is the foundation for determining the factors affecting the quality of the technical information system. Random Theory Contingency theory is derived from organization theory and has been widely used by research since the 1950s and 1960s (Dwivedi et al., 2012). Contingency theory is based on two main findings: (i) There is no single best way to organize or manage a business; (ii) Each method of organization or management, when selected by enterprises, has different effects. For the study of information systems, randomization theory appeared in the late 1970s (Dwivedi et al., 2012). As for the TA, the stochastic theory suggests that the TA should be developed within an adaptive framework. Research on accounting information systems based on stochastic theoretical approach has suggested a number of factors affecting the quality of accounting information systems: job characteristics, user characteristics, user participation, process enterprise size, enterprise characteristics. Some studies on management information systems and accounting information systems have used randomization theory such as Gordon and Miller (1976); Nicolaou (2000)… Therefore, the application of stochastic theory to determine the factors affecting the quality of the technical information system is appropriate. Research Methods The author uses synthesis method, theoretical analysis and expert interview method. The objective of the qualitative research method is to find out how to measure the quality of the technical information system and determine the factors affecting the quality of the economic information system, associated with Vietnamese garment enterprises. The method of synthesis and theoretical analysis starts from synthesizing previous studies from different database sources to find out the theory of the quality of the accounting information system and identify the factors affecting the quality of the accounting information system. From the process of synthesizing previous research documents, the author analyzes to define the concept of the quality of the technical information system and propose the factors affecting the quality of the economic information system in Vietnamese garment enterprises. The method of interviewing experts was carried out in the form of semi-structured interviews. Patton (2002) said that, there is no principle to choose the number of research samples in interview research (or qualitative research). For semi-structured interviews, the quality of information and the source of information collected are the first things to pay attention to. Therefore, in order to ensure the information collection process, the author selected a research sample to interview 10 people who are leaders, staff of the IT/ICT department, staff of the finance and accounting department (accounting). chief, accountant) of Vietnamese garment enterprises. First, the author interviews experts to get a general assessment of the research topic. Next, the author conducts in-depth interviews with experts to adjust the scale and complete the official research model. Research results The results of the qualitative research method are useful information for the construction, evaluation and completion of the scales/indicators/attributes. Although the construction of the scales is based on previous studies by the author, it is necessary to adjust the scales to suit the research context at Vietnamese garment enterprises. The proposed technical information system quality scales have a high consensus of the interviewees and the sentences are adjusted to be more suitable with the research context of Vietnamese garment enterprises. For the factors affecting the quality of the accounting information system, the author proposes a number of factors based on previous studies and asks questions to the interviewees to find out the appropriate factors. The results of the selection of influencing factors by experts are shown in Table 1. Based on the results of the selection of factors affecting the quality of the technical information system, the selected factors have a rate of over 50% of the total number of experts’ opinions. The factors affecting the quality of the accounting information system (independent variable) were determined based on previous studies. The author intends to select 3 factors affecting the quality of the accounting information system, including: (i) Knowledge of accountants; (ii) Manager’s knowledge; (iii) Management support. Ismail (2009) said that managers with basic accounting knowledge and accounting information system, the quality of accounting information system is improved. In addition, managers’ knowledge of technology and accounting information system will help them make decisions to choose the technology and information systems that best suit the characteristics of enterprises. If the accountant has professional knowledge and experience, the system will be easier to use. The accountant’s experience with the accounting information system has a positive effect on the effectiveness of the accounting information system as well as the implementation of the accounting information system (Dehghanzade et al., 2011). Thong et al (1996) said that managers with knowledge and experience in technology and accounting information system will realize the importance of a quality accounting information system. From there, managers will make the right decisions in choosing the accounting information system in line with the enterprise’s objectives, promoting the quality of the accounting information system. Therefore, the author proposes a research model as Figure 1. The linear regression equation for the proposed research model is as follows: QAIS = a + b1*MK + b2*UK + b3*MS + e Inside: a: Constant b1, b2, b3: Regression coefficients of variables MK, UK, MS MK: Knowledge of managers UK: Knowledge of accountants MS: Management support e: Noise coefficient Conclude Accounting information is an important factor for businesses and state management agencies in the current context. The development of information technology of the 4th Industrial Revolution requires accounting information to be provided quickly, timely and accurately, effectively serving enterprises in making management decisions. Improving the quality of technical information systems is an important task of enterprises in general and garment enterprises in particular. Finding out the factors affecting the quality of technical information systems is very urgent. This helps Vietnamese garment enterprises to find out the causes affecting the quality of the technical information systems and to suggest about testing the research model related to the quality of the technical information systems for researchers of the technical information systems in the future.

Increase investment in innovation About 36.4% of the total of more than 350,000 enterprises in Ho Chi Minh City have applied science – technology and innovation. Mr. Le Xuan Dinh, Deputy Minister of Science and Technology affirmed that the creative capacity of Ho Chi Minh City represents a very important part of the creative capacity of the nation. Therefore, it is very important to pay attention to developing the scientific and technological potential of Ho Chi Minh City in the coming period. From the background of science – technology, will make a change in the quality of economic growth of the City. The background of science and technology is reflected in the number of human resources participating in this field, the level of investment in scientific research and innovation activities in businesses and the startup community. If 5 years ago, the concept of start-up and start-up was new, now, this community is growing rapidly in both quantity and quality. Deputy Minister Le Xuan Dinh assessed that Ho Chi Minh City is a pioneer in the country in the start-up movement. According to data from the Department of Science and Technology of Ho Chi Minh City, in the past 5 years, Ho Chi Minh City has become the cradle of direct and indirect support for nearly 1,840 start-up projects in the stages of product completion, completion Adjusting business models, connecting domestic and foreign markets, providing financial advice, developing startup ideas, etc. Along with that, more than 1,000 events were held in the area to connect individuals, organizations, and innovative start-ups with experts, advisors, investment funds and markets through forums. forums, conferences/workshops… “The ecosystem supporting innovation startups in Ho Chi Minh City is the most comprehensively developed in Vietnam, with all components. Therefore, it is necessary to continue to invest and develop this community further”, emphasized Deputy Minister Le Xuan Dinh. Science Development Fund can invest in start-ups Ho Chi Minh City has set a target that by the end of 2025, it will support to improve innovation capacity for 3,000 businesses; support incubating and developing 1,000 innovative start-up projects; supporting the development of 100 innovative start-ups to access venture capital. However, HCMC only supports incubators and events; Direct support activities for start-ups are limited in both direct funding and tax policy. In addition to the start-up group, the promotion of small and medium-sized enterprises to set up funds for science and technology development also needs to be increased. Science and technology development fund is a fund set up by enterprises to invest in scientific research and technological development. This fund is often used to build laboratories; purchase machinery and equipment for research and development (R&D); buy technology copyrights, industrial designs… According to the Department of Science and Technology of Ho Chi Minh City, as of October 2020, in Ho Chi Minh City, only 121 enterprises have set aside a fund for science and technology development with a total amount of more than VND 4,400 billion. . These numbers need to be increased. Leaders of the Ministry of Science and Technology said that in the coming time, the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Ministry of Finance will finalize regulations on the use of science and technology development funds in enterprises. Currently, enterprises often use science and technology development funds to conduct R&D activities, while this fund needs to be used for all activities to support innovation, businesses can use this fund to invest. for start-ups. Therefore, perfecting the regulations on the use of science and technology development funds is also one of the solutions to promote startups.

– What is the difference between the RPA (Robotics Process Automation) solution provided by Viettel compared to similar services on the market? – Viettel’s RPA is an end-to-end service, that is, comprehensive consulting from possibilities and opportunities to automate RPA to deploying automation, operation and optimization solutions to improve customer experience, employee experience during implementation. Viettel “tailored” to each customer, depending on their business. Mr. Doan Dai Phong – Deputy General Director of Viettel Solutions. – What special strengths does Viettel have when providing this service to other businesses and organizations? – Viettel’s first strength with RPA services is infrastructure, because RPA must combine other digital services such as IoT (Internet of Things), edge computing, and Cloud. The second strength is human resources, technology along with experience in solving internal problems in robotics. We believe these are our strengths when solving RPA problems for customers. – What difficult problems has Viettel solved to create strengths when deploying RPA solutions for customers? – Viettel is a multi-industry corporation, so it works in many fields such as finance and accounting, network operation, logistics … and needs to apply many robotics problems. For example, in terms of financial reconciliation, on average, Viettel reconciles from a few thousand to several tens of thousands of businesses a month. If we use manual invoicing, we will need a lot of manpower. However, when applying RPA, Viettel’s financial reconciliation only needs about 50-60 people, because most of the operations are handled automatically when receiving invoices from businesses. Accordingly, instead of manually entering invoice information into the system, and then having to check if the customer’s information included in the invoice is correct with Viettel’s management system, the application of RPA can help speed up to more than 10 times and save 70% on personnel costs. – With an external customer, how long will it take to deploy RPA for the business? – Implementation time will depend on the business of the business. According to my research, some banks in the world usually apply about 50-100 processes. On average, businesses need to apply RPA to about 50 processes. Meanwhile, within 1-3 months, Viettel can deploy RPA 3-5 processes. – What is the most difficult thing when implementing Viettel’s RPA solutions? – In my opinion, for RPA, about 80% of cases will not have any difficulty in deploying, because the essence of RPA is to apply robotics to operations that have to be done manually. The biggest difficulty when applying RPA is often when implementing it with other technology solutions. For example, when taking data from sensors to push to a centralized data warehouse, it is necessary to apply many different technologies such as IoT, related to Big Data, and then apply RPA. The difficulty will lie in the combination with other technologies, but in terms of implementing RPA solutions, there is almost no difficulty. Viettel signed strategic cooperation agreements with many enterprises. – Viettel has just signed a strategic cooperation agreement in implementing many digital transformation solutions for 3 companies, namely Vietnam Airports Corporation, Nova Group, and Saigon Newport Corporation. If deploying Viettel’s RPA solutions, how will they change? – The nature of internal efficiency of Viettel may partly reflect the effectiveness of customers. I once read a statistic showing that when applying RPA, on average, businesses can reduce costs by 30%, increase work accuracy by 99%. RPA can handle up to 25% of banking jobs, 36% of processes in healthcare and other industries.

(Image source: UiPath) On April 21, local time, UiPath, an American AI machine processing automation technology developer and enterprise-level RPA software giant, successfully landed on the New York Stock Exchange under the stock code “PATH”. UiPath’s opening stock price was 65.50 US dollars per share, which was an increase of about 17% from the issue price of 56 US dollars per share. It broke through 70.40 US dollars in midday, and the intraday increase expanded to nearly 26%. As of press time, UiPath’s closing price on the first day was US$69 per share, an increase of more than 23%, and its market value reached US$35.8 billion. Prior to this, UiPath had publicly sold 23.9 million shares for US$56, raising nearly US$1.34 billion. If the underwriters use the green shoe mechanism to choose over-allotment, UiPath will create the third largest software IPO in the history of US stocks based on the total amount of listed financing, second only to Snowflake in September last year and Qualtrics in January this year. At the same time, this is another enterprise-level software unicorn entering the capital market following the successful listing of such giants as Zoom and Snowflake. Moreover, UiPath is the first RPA software platform to land on the US stock market with the highest market value. UiPath is headquartered in New York, USA, mainly for corporate customers to help them build and optimize their Robotic Process Automation (RPA) platform. To put it simply, the role of RPA is to maximize the use of it to replace or assist humans in completing repetitive tasks and tasks in digital devices such as computers, so as to achieve the goal of reducing costs and increasing efficiency and improving work efficiency. For example, in the invoice reimbursement scenario, a large number of invoices are normally sorted by human means, and then summarized into a form and submitted to the enterprise OA system, while the RPA platform directly makes a product interface for invoice collection and reimbursement requests. Employees only It needs to be uploaded by sorting folders, clicking on the relevant button, the platform will wake up the so-called “AI robot” behind it, and process the reimbursement process in an automated manner, simplifying the entire reimbursement process by machine. Main functions and features of RPA (Source: iResearch) In fact, the current RPA market is still relatively small compared to cloud computing, semiconductors and other race tracks. As of the end of 2020, the global RPA market is only about 17 billion US dollars, and it is expected to increase to 30 billion US dollars by the end of 2024. However, the importance of the RPA platform is that if a manufacturing company with a revenue of 20 billion U.S. dollars and 50,000 employees, 20% of its work flow can be completed with RPA automation, it can bring more than 3,000 to it every year. Ten thousand dollars in profit. Zhu Xiaohu, managing director of Jinshajiang Venture Capital Fund, pointed out at last year’s World Artificial Intelligence Conference that the RPA software and service market is a “unmanned economy” of tens of billions of dollars, with huge potential for commercial value. “UiPath’s successful listing means that the capital market can pay attention to and recognize more RPA companies, and it can also play an educational role for customers in various industries.” Liu Chungang, founder and CEO of Yunkuo Technology, said in an exclusive interview with Titanium Media App, Although all walks of life have very strong application requirements for RPA, domestic RPA companies are still in the niche circle of the corporate service track, and have not really “out of the circle.” If UiPath continues to improve in the capital market, it will help more people understand RPA track technology and enterprises. Founded in 2017, Yunkuo Technology is a domestic enterprise-level intelligent RPA platform provider headquartered in Shanghai. In March of this year, Yunkuo Technology completed the B+ round of financing invested by Flaming Capital. Prior to this, the company has received a total of more than 45 million U.S. dollars in investment from well-known investment institutions such as Sequoia Capital China Fund, Jinshajiang Venture Capital, B Trend Capital, and Shenzhen Venture Capital. Zhou Tianen, an analyst at Head Leopard Research Institute, told Titanium Media App that the listing of UiPath has positive significance for the industry. “Because of its high growth and high gross profit, it is extremely good among SaaS companies. UiPath proved that the revenue model based on licensing revenue, operation and maintenance and technical support is feasible and the business model has high potential; and, due to the penetration rate of RPA in China Low, UiPath’s good revenue growth model can prove that China’s RPA market space needs to be tapped, and domestic RPA companies may take the opportunity to accelerate their deployment.” Zhou Tianen said. High growth + high gross profit + high retention rate behind RPA star stocks The story of UIPath development began in 2005. Self-taught programmer Daniel Dines (Daniel Dines) chose to leave after working in the SQL server agent development department of Microsoft Corporation in Seattle for 5 years. He established the predecessor of UIPath DeskOver in Romania through the formation of a 10-person technical team. It mainly provides technical outsourcing consulting services for companies such as IBM, Microsoft, and Google, and also develops some automation products. In 2013, the Indian business process outsourcing (BPO) company hopes that DeskOver can provide its customers with software for automated tasks. Although Deans’ company does not focus on RPA technology, he sees business opportunities. Soon, DeskOver attracted the attention of Yahoo. In 2015, it received financing to develop an enterprise-level RPA platform, officially renamed “UiPath”, and fully transformed into RPA technology research and development. Today, UiPath has become a leader in the RPA field. According to the “2019 RPA Magic Quadrant Research Report” released by Gartner, the top 5 global RPA tracks are UiPath, Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism, NICE and Pegasystems. Compared with other similar companies, the secret of UiPath’s success lies in its unique product service capabilities. UiPath relies on its three intelligent automation platforms, from discovery, construction, management, operation, participation in a total of five major eighteen products, Realize to provide customers with end-to-end automated service solutions . UiPath’s business model is to help customers deploy more unattended, manned, testing and AI robots through the platform to save time, improve efficiency and create business value. According to the prospectus, UiPath’s revenues for fiscal year 2019, fiscal year 2020, and fiscal year 2021 as of January 31 were US$148 million, US$336 million, and US$608 million, respectively; gross profit was US$100 million, US$276 million, 540 million U.S. dollars; operating losses were 257 million U.S. dollars, 517 million U.S. dollars, and 110 million U.S. dollars; net losses were 262 million U.S. dollars, 520 million U.S. dollars, and 92.39 million U.S. dollars. The main reason for UiPath’s loss is that UiPath’s sales expenses and R&D expenses are relatively high. In the fiscal year 2019, fiscal year 2020, and fiscal year 2021 ending on January 31, UiPath sales and marketing expenses reached 190 million U.S. dollars, 483 million U.S. dollars, and 380 million U.S. dollars; R&D expenditures were 66.92 million U.S. dollars, 131 million U.S. dollars, 101 million US dollars. Specific profit model , UiPath generates revenue by providing an automated platform to collect subscription fees from customers. Usually start from a single project and gradually expand to the department and the company as a whole, thereby further improving the company’s degree of automation and work efficiency. At present, the company’s revenue sources are divided into two parts: licenses and maintenance and support, accounting for approximately 6:4. Customer retention rate is as high as 96%. The prospectus shows that in the fiscal year 2019, fiscal year 2020, and fiscal year 2021 as of January 31, UiPath authorized revenue was 94.91 million U.S. dollars, 200 million U.S. dollars, and 346 million U.S. dollars; maintenance support business income was 47.287 million U.S. dollars, 120 million U.S. dollars and 232 million U.S. dollars. Currently, UiPath has nearly 8,000 customers. Among the famous Fortune 500 companies such as Bank of America, Toyota Motor, General Electric and Adobe, 61% are UiPath customers, and 80% of the Fortune 10 companies are customers. UiPath’s customer information (Source: IPO roadshow PPT) Another thing worth noting is that In the past eight quarters, UiPath’s quarterly revenue growth rate has stabilized at around 80% year-on-year, while gross profit margin has continued to rise, reaching a staggering 90%. Moreover, as the company’s cost control capabilities are constantly improving, in the fiscal year ending January 31, 2021, UiPath has twice achieved profitability. In general, UiPath leverages its leading position in the RPA field, In 5 years, revenue has grown from US$1 million in revenue to US$600 million, and it has achieved high gross profit and high retention rate. It is one of the fastest growing SaaS companies in history. Strong revenue capabilities and improved profitability have pushed UiPath’s valuation upward. The company’s valuation after its F round (Pre-IPO round) financing in February this year has reached 35 billion U.S. dollars. UiPath financing history (Source: TechCrunch) According to data from CrunchBase, before the IPO, UiPath had raised a total of US$2 billion through 27 investors and 8 rounds of financing. Among them, the A round and B round were led by Accel Capital and Google’s CapitalG. Star institutional investors such as Tencent Investment and Sequoia Capital participated in the subsequent rounds. Will low-code technology impact the RPA market? Compared with China’s RPA market with a scale of less than 1 billion, the low-code application development technology (LCAP) is more favored by the outside world, and giants such as Ali and Tencent are even hotter. On January 14, 2021, Alibaba’s DingTalk officially released version 6.0, and launched DingDingYida and other low-code development tools. Enterprise application development can be deployed through a “drag and drop” method. The “low-code development” model based on the integration of cloud nails allows users who do not understand the code to quickly develop new applications. The so-called low-code development refers to a development model in which applications can be quickly generated without coding (0 code) or with a small amount of code. According to the “2021 China Low-Code/No-Code Market Research Report” released by the Haibi Research Institute in January this year, the overall market size of China’s low-code application development technology has reached 1.9 billion, with a compound growth rate of 49.5% in the next five years. This means that by 2025, the scale of the low-code market is expected to exceed 6 billion yuan. In an interview with VentureBeat, the CEO of process technology provider Celonis, Alexander Rinke bluntly stated that the combination of process technology and low-code automation can replace automation technologies such as RPA+AI and is even more effective than traditional RPA. And extensible. He believes that the low-code technology movement is constantly impacting the development of the global RPA market. In this regard, Liu Chungang does not agree with this statement. He pointed out that RPA is an application branch area under AI technology, and low-code is a graphical programming technology. RPA and low-code technology complement each other, and the two technologies are not mutually replaceable. “Although there are some common requirements, I think low-code and RPA solve different problems. RPA solves the problem of repetitive operations in existing software systems, while low-code solves the development cost and development cost of lightweight applications. The issue of efficiency. I believe that the combination of RPA and low-code technologies can provide customers with better solutions and solve practical problems more efficiently.” Liu Chungang said to the Titanium Media App. It is reported that Yunkuo Technology has released a new low-code product Encoo ViCode based on the Encoo RPA platform, which can be seamlessly integrated with Yunku RPA products. With the non-intrusive and flexible configuration characteristics of RPA, it can build multiple systems and multiple systems. Complete closed-loop application of the data source, and complete the company’s complete product line layout in RPA+LCAP. (Image source: Yunkuo Technology) Zhou Tianen believes that from an application perspective, low-code technology has added more room for imagination to the RPA market. In the past, RPA is more suitable for large enterprises, and the cost of RPA for small and medium enterprises is relatively high. The low-code technology can reduce the user’s difficulty. “First, designing the RPA process based on graphical operations can reduce the amount of code writing, enhance the application experience of non-IT technicians, and increase the speed of RPA development; second, low code helps to quickly design workflows and accelerate business application delivery. Reduce the development threshold and the initial cost of training and deployment. RPA+ low-code platform can be applied to smaller-scale enterprises than before, so the overall market space of RPA increases.” Zhou Tianen told Titan Media App that low-code is the development trend of RPA And the potential business model, there will be more RPA vendors launching low-code or no-code editors in the future. Zhou Tianen emphasized that there is no contradiction between low-code and RPA, and their respective characteristics are different. RPA is applied to the operation interface of different systems to help employees cope with repetitive and regular tasks; low-code development platforms help companies to reduce the amount of code. Reduce development costs and flexibly update and iterate. Why hasn’t the Chinese version of UiPath been born yet? The epidemic has accelerated the process of unmanned office and digital construction, and has allowed RPA to continue to “out of the circle”. According to Forrester’s enterprise survey, at the end of 2019, RPA technology ranked the lowest among all enterprise automation system deployments; and by 2020, the ranking of RPA technology has risen to the first place. During our visit, we found that no matter whether it is Cloud Expansion Technology, the RPA+AI service provider Laiye Technology that announced financing within a few hours before UiPath’s listing, or Hongji Cyclone, Daguan Data, etc., no one dares to claim that they are ” Chinese version of UiPath”. Regardless of company size or global market share, Chinese local RPA companies are far from UiPath and Blue Prism. China RPA Industry Chain (Source: Head Leopard Research Institute) Zhou Tianen told the Titanium Media App that there are three main reasons for this: 1. RPA is an industry born according to the needs of enterprise applications. The digital transformation of the business process of large Chinese enterprises is later than that of the United States, and the demand for RPA is less. Therefore, the establishment of enterprises such as Cloud Expansion and Laiye is later than UiPath, and it is normal that the scale is smaller than that of international leading enterprises; 2. The penetration rate of China’s RPA market is still lower than that of countries and regions with high labor costs such as the United States and Europe, and the business volume of local RPA companies will be less and the pace will be slow; 3. It is difficult for local RPA suppliers to touch the market of competing multinational companies, whose RPA needs are all occupied by UiPath. For Chinese RPA suppliers, it is more difficult to compete with UiPath. However, Zhou Tianen also emphasized that the RPA needs of many local companies in China have yet to be developed. If the cloud expands and wins the market competition in this field, the size of the enterprise will be very considerable, and conservative estimates will very likely reach the scale of UiPath. In an exclusive interview with Titanium Media App, Liu Chungang said that the relative cheapness of labor costs and the adequacy of labor have led Chinese companies to use automated software systems to improve operational efficiency and accelerate digital transformation. The urgency of the demand is relatively higher than that of foreign companies. low. “Nowadays, with the country’s advocacy for accelerating the digital development of various industries and the growing demand for more agile tools for companies themselves to face internal and external challenges, corporate executives have begun to pay attention to RPA technology. This is a very critical signal for change.” Liu Chungang It is believed that good companies never lack investment, and Chinese RPA companies will continue to grow rapidly. The fact is that the focus of enterprises has begun to shift from integrating external resource elements to tapping internal management. Actively looking for tools to improve internal management efficiency is a key element for enterprises to optimize processes and improve labor productivity. Therefore, RPA software is on the eve of a full-blown explosion. Liu Chungang emphasized that as Chinese companies continue to increase their demand for digitalization, intelligence, and informatization, a giant like UiPath will surely appear on the RPA track in China in the future. This is what he believes. However, he did not mention who will eventually become the Chinese version of UiPath.

In 2019, ST25 rice won the world’s best rice award There is a “door” to reverse the situation but … As Traffic newspaper has stated, there are 5 enterprises in the US that have registered to protect the trademark of ST25 rice – the best rice in the world in Vietnam and are waiting for approval for exclusive certification. Trademark protection is understood that Vietnamese enterprises’ ST24, ST25 rice products, if they want to sell in the US market, must go through those 5 enterprises when they have successfully registered. At that time, they will take control of the entire distribution system of the market. If Vietnamese enterprises do not want to approve or sell them to the 5 above-mentioned enterprises, they must take a different name, not the name of ST24, ST25 rice. That is the risk of Vietnamese enterprises when they are first registered for trademark and intellectual property protection by foreign enterprises. Talking to the Traffic Newspaper’s reporter, Mr. Hoang Minh Chien, Deputy Director of the Trade Promotion Department (Ministry of Industry and Trade), said that at present, the protection of products abroad of Vietnamese enterprises (enterprises) is not high. Contrary to the agility of foreign firms. “The fact that Vietnamese rice ST24 and ST25 are protected by foreign enterprises in the US is also a wake-up call for Vietnamese enterprises when they want to target export markets,” said Chien. According to Chien, currently rice ST24, ST25 has registered copyright, intellectual property in Vietnam, has been protected in the Vietnamese market, no one can win this product in the Vietnamese market. But when exporting their products to any market, Vietnamese enterprises must also register for that product in that market. Vietnamese enterprises that want to have trademark protection in the foreign market need to do very methodically according to the general international regulations, just as the legal and legal regulations are clearly regulated like registration in Vietnam. The registration can also be used by a third party which is a service if you cannot read and understand foreign documents …. Moreover, businesses can completely contact the state management agency about the brand. to be able to advise more carefully. But first, consciousness has to be derived from them. Commenting the rice brand ST24 and ST25 “has not been lost in the US” because it is in the review time, the representative of the Trade Promotion Agency said that Mr. Cua could “turn the tide” if he promptly complained to In America, when Mr. Crab’s “trump card” is “the unit that owns the rice variety, takes the contest and has the prize”. … Complicated procedures, “huge” costs An intellectual property expert said that the story of Mr. Cua can stick to the “broken car trail” of Trung Nguyen coffee when the partner has registered for Trung Nguyen Coffee brand with the authorities. The US and the World Intellectual Protection Organization (WIPO) when Trung Nguyen Company has just negotiated and has never signed a contract with a partner to bring products to this market. This is considered the first “movement” of losing the brand name of a Vietnamese enterprise when it wants to do business abroad and takes 2 years of negotiation, Trung Nguyen can regain the Trung Nguyen Coffee brand in the US and also spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on this. After that, WIPO did not accept to protect Rice Field – Trung Nguyen’s partner. This company also stepped back and accepted as a distribution agent for Trung Nguyen Coffee in the US. Trung Nguyen then strongly registered for trademark protection in more than 60 countries and territories around the world. Lessons learned about the blood and bones are still there, existing the story of rice ST24, ST25. Therefore, according to this taste, Mr. Cua can save it, but it is not easy, because it needs to be done quickly and very expensive. Not to mention, the other businesses enjoy the priority right due to the advance payment, the proving process still takes a lot of time and effort. In particular, if you do not do it early, you will lose the opportunity to “demand” much more difficult, heavier than having to spend a “huge” amount of money to buy. With the experience of many companies that went ahead, this position warned: “Do not wait for fame and then protect, but take action right after forming ideas. In the era of open economy, everything is easy, including protection. Expenses are also becoming cheaper and cheaper, Vietnamese businesses also need to change their “fear of cost” mindset so that when it is too late, they cannot be saved.
