undertook by Guangdong University of Technology (广东工业大学) from 29th

I also

I also
took a photo with Dr. Ren Shuyun, Shara (任淑云) (香港理工大学) (middle) and Dr. Guo Yujuan,
Alice (郭玉娟) (香港理工大学) (left).
In the
beginning, Prof. Li Weining (李卫宁) (华南理工大学) (South China University of Technology) was
session chair and introduced speakers.
The first speaker was Ms. Xiang
Xiaomei (向晓梅) (广东省社科院产业经济研究所) and her presentation topic entitled “Research
on Industrial Synergy Development in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area”
(粤港澳大湾区产业协同发展研究).
Firstly, she briefed three new industries development in the Greater Bay Area included Digitalization, Robotic and E-commercial.
Then Ms. Xiang mentioned the
advantage of industrial synergy in Greater Bay Area.
At the end, she discussed the system and mechanism innovation in Greater Bay Area included Free Trade, Trade Barrier, Cross boundary industry cooperation and talent exchange.
The
second speaker was Prof. Helen S Du (杜松华) (广东工业大学) (School of Management, GDUT) and her topic
named “Achieving Mobile Social Media Popularity to Enhance Customer
Acquisition: Cases from P2P Lending Firms” (企业移动社交媒体知名度与其客户获取能力关系的实证研究：以P2P企业微信公众号为例).
In the beginning, Prof. Du briefed the mobile social media and its popularity definition that the number of users (e.g. followers), views, comments and likes, and/or re-posts on a mobile platform (移动社交媒体知名度 = 流量). Then she mentioned her research questions “RQ1: Whether and to what extent the poplarity of a firm’s mobile social media platform is associated with its customer acquisition? and RQ2: What (designable) factors affect the popularity of a firm’s mobile social media platform?” She studied in two aspects named Inter-personal level and Intra-personal level.
Finally, Prof. Helen S Du shared her research model and results, indicating that there had positive proportional relationship between Mobile social media and Customer acquisition. Content freshness had higher relationship to Mobile social media than source credibility and Application utility. Since the coefficient was low, more cognitive cues or other influence factors should be considered into the current research.
Dr. Ren Shuyun, Shara (任淑云) (香港理工大学) was the fourth speaker and her
presentation entitled “Digital Transformation and Innovation of Local Fashion
Industry” (本土时尚产业的数字化转型与创新). She said market prediction on fashion
industry was very important and the customer behavior changed to more and more personalization.
Dr. Ren raised an example about
men T-shirt and using Big Data to analysis.
She found that the most frequency word was Husband (老公) indicating that wife searched
much for her husband’s T-shirt.
Therefore, women’s view would be more important than men’s view.
Finally, she discussed the inventory management with the model used by Ayilian (阿依蓮).
Dr. Guo Yujuan, Alice (郭玉娟) (香港理工大学) was the last speaker and her
topic named “Do customers’ opinions affect companies’ performance? The impact
of customer participation in social media on customer satisfaction and firm
reputation” (顾客的意见是否会影响公司的业绩？一项关于顾客参与社交媒体对公司顾客满意度以及公司声誉影响的实证研究).
Firstly Dr. Alice Guo briefed the
impact of customer participation in social media and using Starbuck and
McDonald as case for discussion.
Finally, Dr. Alice Guo described her research methodology using Dynamic Panel Data Model (DPD model) and got implications. Theoretically, the customer co-creation mechanism was verified by using secondary data in the social media environment. Practically, it called for operations managers to make use of customers’ opinions on the social media platform.
At the end, Prof. Xie Weihong (谢卫红) (广东工业大学科技处副处长) chaired the discussion panel
and we exchanged ideas with professors and their students very well.
After the lunch, it had technical
visit to Midea factory. It was pity that
I needed to go back to Hong Kong for chair the HKSQ seminar at that night. When I returned to station, I passed the Sun
Yat-sen Memorial and took some photos for memory.
