On February 20, the Beijing Winter Olympics came to a perfect end. Many people do not know that behind the wonderful Winter Olympic games, the WPS technical support team provides China's independent and innovative localization technical services, ensuring the document exchange and data security between the two places and three competition areas and the International Olympic Organizing Committee. Bi Xiaocun, senior vice president of Kingsoft Office, could not help but sigh, "For this moment, we have been catching up for 13 years. ”
Bi Xiaocun, senior vice president of Kingsoft Office, is a senior vice president of Nanyue.
From the review of "Little White", to the core members
In 2008, Kingsoft's office at its headquarters in Beijing was just across the road from the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee office. Although all Kingsoft office workers were very eager to use Chinese brands for this international event held at their doorstep, WPS was in a period of technical attack at that time, and unfortunately, the national office software WPS failed to become a partner of the Beijing Olympic Games. "From that moment on, my colleagues and I made up our minds to let the banner of national software fly high on international events."
Three years further forward, it was when Bi Xiaocun joined the Jinshan office and came to Zhuhai for the first time. Majoring in environmental engineering at university, she did software testing. As a "little white", she has been asking herself for the first three months, "Can I do it?" "She works actively during the day and continues to study until late at night after work. Under the tireless guidance of her colleagues, she learned little by little how to evaluate the software, to simulate various user scenarios, to find software failures, and to write evaluation reports. In three months, she lost more than 20 pounds.
"For anyone, only learning can drive them to make continuous progress. If you stagnate and enjoy the results of the moment, it will be difficult for you to move forward. It was this power that had always inspired her. For more than 10 years, she has gone from being a grassroots tester, going through a test team leader, and then to a business unit head. She has also participated in the company's joint undertaking of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's "nuclear high-base" major special scientific research and application adaptation projects for many times, and led the team as a core member. "From being able to participate in only part of the work at the beginning, to being able to lead some work later. This constant sense of participation allows me to experience my personal achievements and progress. ”
When Beijing won the right to host the 2022 Winter Olympics in 2015, she and her colleagues knew the opportunity had come. "I led the WPS technical support team to and from Zhuhai, Beijing, many times, combined with the requirements of the Olympic Organizing Committee, to carry out the communication of service customization needs, after no less than 200 meetings to discuss and optimize the plan." In the end, Kingsoft Office was successfully selected as the official collaborative office software supplier for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.
Individuals grow together with the company
Can break through the "ceiling"
Recalling the WPS bottom period of "before There was Microsoft, after there was piracy", Bi Xiaocun said that insisting on innovation is the only answer to their nirvana rebirth. "We look at new technologies every day, such as the application of AI and cloud computing in the office world, and these changing technologies are one of our drivers." As the times continue to move forward, how to meet the better office experience of users in the new era is also a factor driving their progress.
As a working woman, Bi Xiaocun's speech is gentle and amiable, but her demeanor is full of power. She found that many outstanding female representatives have emerged from all walks of life, and more and more "female power" is rising. "Now both technology and market are constantly changing. New partners are constantly pouring in, and we have to speed up our pace and run forward. She has repeatedly mentioned that she is a lucky person, "I think that as the company grows, the individual also grows gradually, which should be regarded as a very happy thing in the whole workplace." ”
Over the years, she has witnessed the growth of Kingsoft Office. From the early unprofitable or micro-profitable state, to today's sci-tech board listing. "We have 34 years of development history, so many years of products and research and development accumulation, so that we can have a relatively more cutting-edge, broader perspective." At present, the number of monthly active devices in WPS has exceeded 500 million, and through observation and collection of user needs, coupled with technical precipitation, it helps them to continue to iterate and keep up with the rhythm of the market and users.
From 2005 to today, Bi Xiaocun has more confidence. As a woman in the new era, she believes that the fate of the company and the individual is inseparable, and whether it can break through the professional ceiling depends on herself and the platform of the entire company. "The company's own development steps and rhythms, the platform that can be given to each employee is different. So I think that growing up with the company, this ceiling can also be broken together. ”
Same question and answer
Nandu: How would you describe the feminine qualities you understand?
Women often show gentle affinity in the work, but there is a sense of boundaries and strength, in the team work, it is easier to promote the integration and cohesion of the team, taking into account the innovation and inheritance of technology, which is the special charm of women as I understand it.

Now more and more female compatriots, engaged in scientific research, into various project construction, all walks of life can see excellent female representatives, I think these are a kind of women and men equality performance. I believe that in the future, more and more girls will exert their professional strength and make more contributions to China.
