For the next stage of work, Guo Jianquan put forward three specific requirements.

Firstly, understand the situation clearly and take initiative to scientifically map out the "14th Five-Year Plan". We must look for the future with strategic visions, take initiative to identify the company's positioning in the overall situation of the national development strategy and the development strategy of Poly SinoLight, pursue the company's development and assist the SinoLight Group in achieving its strategy of "being the internationally renowned and domestic leading light industry group in technology innovation". We must expand the market with innovative thinking, build a strong Haisum brand through standardized management, put the social responsibility and brand image of central enterprises in the first place, strengthen technology leadership to create value for customers, undertake projects by leveraging core technologies and promote digital transformation and empower digital factory construction. Secondly, risk prevention, management and control strengthening, and quality and efficiency improvement through fine management. It is necessary to use bottom-line thinking to clarify the foundation and development direction, strengthen risk prediction, prevent risks from the source, focus on key areas to prevent risks, and comprehensively improve the quality and effectiveness of risk prevention and control. The compliance operations shall be deemed as a guarantee for stable operations by means of focusing on prevention and control at the source and standardizing manners of decision-making. It is necessary to implement fine management into various business and management work to have links strictly seized and process control strengthened so as to improve the quality and efficiency to make up shortcomings and weaknesses. Thirdly, thoughts shall be regimented and responsibilities must be consolidated to fulfill the original intention with down-to-earth efforts. After completing the establishment of the headquarters and head office, leading cadres at all levels should further raise their awareness, unify their thinking and accelerate business integration. In accordance with the ideas and goals of development and reform, we must further implement responsibilities, strengthen implementation, continue to carry forward the "wolf spirit" culture, and promote the implementation of development and reform with good working modes and solid working styles.
