​2019年5月5日，国际学院党委副书记刘明、教务秘书李佳、辅导员何宇艳与学校就业指导中心副主任陈晓明、就业创业调研部黄晓华一同走访国际学院优秀校友的文创公司——广州阳伞文化传播有限公司（自媒体平台：我要WhatYouNeed）。

“我要WhatYouNeed”由国际学院2016届金融学专业毕业生陈裕明与四名同窗好友在2014年3月创办，最初是为了给学生提供校园热点事件的人性化解读以及举办有趣的活动，并在上面发表自己的原创文学。

毕业三年，再次与当年的班主任李佳老师见面，陈裕明和团队另外两位创始人李若馨、李杰和都倍感亲切。师生四人回忆了当年一同前往美国参加交流项目并结下深厚友谊的经历，这段经历为WYN团队的组建奠定了良好的基础。

从第一个活动“荧光夜跑”到走出校园的创意“用100杯星巴克和你赌未来”，“我要WhatYouNeed”的粉丝数一路飙升，至今，平台已经拥有超过100位创作者，聚集了近100万追求精神生活和新生活方式的年轻人。2017年8月，WYN团队成功获得腾讯与华人文化600万人民币的天使融资。目前，几位创始人都表示，不会急于接受下一轮融资，原因是想更专注于为年轻人产出高质量的内容，避免过速商业化。

谈到青年人创业，陈晓明向WYN团队介绍了“互联网+创新创业大赛”的赛事高度和重要意义，作为中国创业大赛第一赛事，一直得到国家最高领导人的高度重视。紧接着，负责2019年校赛具体工作的黄晓华补充说明了参赛的具体流程和事项，并鼓励WYN团队参赛，为国际学院、暨南大学，甚至为广东省树立双创典型。在与老师交流的过程中，陈裕明理解了赛事的意义，表示会与团队一同努力带领“我要WhatYouNeed”站到更高的平台上，与国内外创业代表进行更有深度和广度的交流。

刘明肯定了WYN团队取得的成绩，称他们是一群“懂事早”的孩子，在大学期间就能找到志同道合的人并想清楚自己的路怎么走，而且取得了现在的成果，实属不易。刘明鼓励陈裕明等几位优秀校友发挥榜样引领的作用，返校就职业生涯规划、就业创业等话题，为师弟师妹分享经验，国际学院也会尽力提供各方面的支持。

本次走访校友企业是国际学院践行习近平总书记在全国教育大会上的重要讲话精神的关键一步，也是国际学院校友工作的重要一环，相信我院创新创业教育与实践工作能在优秀校友的支持下取得更丰硕的成果。

Era for Innovation and Entrepreneurship

——A Visit to Excellent Alumni’s Startup – WhatYouNeed

On the morning of May 5, 2019, Party Deputy Secretary Mr. Liu Ming, academic secretary Ms. Li Jia and student affairs counselor Ms. He Yuyan of International School and respectful staff of Employment Guidance Center of Jinan University paid a visit to WhatYouNeed, a cultural creativity startup established by the excellent alumni of International School.

WhatYouNeed was founded by a finance undergraduate of International School, Chen Yuming, and his 4 fellow students in March, 2014, with their original intentions to provide human interpretation of hot issues happened in campus and to organize interesting events for students in Jinan University.

Having a reunion with the class advisor Ms. Li Jia three years after graduation, Chen Yuming and the other two co-founders, Li Ruoxin and Li Jiehe, really felt at home and they recalled a lot about their time spent in America together, which laid a good foundation for their entrepreneur practice. What’s worth mentioning is that WYN team gained 6 million RMB of angel financing in 2017 from Tecent Group and China Media Capital.

When it comes to innovation and entrepreneurship, Mr. Chen Xiaoming, deputy director of Employment Guidance Center, introduced the Internet Plus Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition to WYN team, an event which is paid high attention to by China national leaders. Ms. Huang Xiaohua from Employment Guidance Center then added more details about how to participate in the competition.

Mr. Liu Ming really appreciated what WhatYouNeed has achieved and welcomed WYN team to come back to International School for sharing, because their rich experience is bound to influence a large quantity of their junior students.

The visit to WhatYouNeed marked an important step to practice what President Xi Jinping had said in the National Education Conference. We believe that International School can do a better work in the field of innovation and entrepreneurship education.
