Members of the team:

Now, everyone has read the email that Mark announced I joined the company. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and share the excitement of coming here.

For years, Zynga has been a company I envy. You have redefined your entertainment and brought the game to the mainstream. Zynga integrates engineering, industry-leading management and analysis to launch products that attract consumers and add real value to their lives.

More than 1 billion people have already installed Zynga games over the internet and mobile terminals, and popular games like Farmville and words with friends have become a daily game for millions of of people.

I joined Zynga because I believe that the vision and mission of Mark's connection to the world through games is just beginning. Mark has recruited me here, and I am impressed by his creativity and sense of purpose, and he believes that gaming and entertainment will become the core consumer experience in the future.

For the past 30 years, I have been fortunate enough to work with many very smart people to participate in exciting projects. I've managed more than 100 platform transitions, and I've been passionate about the product as a creative experience that can connect people together.

I had the opportunity to lead the team behind the brands such as the need for speed, FIFA and Sims, and consumer services such as Xbox and Kniect. I have witnessed strong branding and networking, delivering breakthrough value to consumers and creating lifelong relationships with our customers through high-quality products. Zynga is an excellent company and has not yet fully realized its value. I am delighted to work with the founder of the product, such as Mark, to develop the company's DNA and lead the transition.

We look forward to meeting you at tomorrow's all staff meeting. If you have any questions about Mark and me, please ask me in time.
