At present, the departments in the internal and external have encountered relatively large problems, internal personnel loss serious, external market failure and product project pressure.
Today in a General Assembly development summary meeting, we are focused on the focus of the department is the market-based or technology-based to produce a number of differences, which reminds me of the "* * * * * * * * *: The independence of the United Front " in a more classical words "We must not break the united front , but they must not be able to bind their own hands and feet.

Research and development as a resource department, we must balance the relationship between their own development and market demand. Transition to market demand, ignoring their own technology, personnel construction, will lead to staff tired of fire, technology can not effectively accumulate, live more dry more tired, complain will be more and more. On the contrary, the department cannot get the business, the market department approval, cannot obtain the more resources, even has the risk of being dismantled.
