At the presentation, as a senior, Gu affectionately narrated his struggle experience and introduced Guangzhous promising prospect and fast-growing Yuchai, one of Chinas top 500 enterprises. Also, from the perspective of university students, Gu analyzed the difference between the opportunities of employment and development in Guangxi and those in developed areas like Guangdong, took himself as an example to encourage the students to take a long view in employment and place business platforms above high salaries and generous living conditions to make a career in the western area.

The presentation also played Yuchais video and recruitment feature and distributed Yuchais brochure to offer the students a further understanding of Yuchai.

The students listen carefully

The presentation was successful. Many students said they were attracted by Yuchai after attending the presentation. Liu Xianfeng, a graduate in logistics management from SYSU, said he would hurry back to submit a resume which he had no time to and he was more desirous to join Yuchai after attending the presentation. Zhang Bo, a postgraduate in mechanical automation from GUT, said he had long heard of Yuchai and came early for the presentation. During assisting Yuchai in early promotion, Li Boqiang, ChinaHRs campus ambassador to SYSU, who is to graduate, also frequently showed his strong desire to join Yuchai before the staff of the Human Resources Department of Yuchai after learning about the enterprise. Although Yuchai accepted no written resumes in principle during the recruitment, besides submitting resumes online, most students submitted written ones on the scene as double insurance.
