EECi aims Thailand to move forward to innovative new industries.
To add economic value to long term countries

When it's like this, it's impossible to guess that EECi must be a source of scientists and good engineers.
Let's combine research materials to top up new industries with advanced technologies.
By this innovative city, there are ′′ 6 target industry ′′ that serves differently.

1. Modern agriculture that will change old agriculture completely.
Because you know that Thailand has 6.8 million farming households.
But it's only 8 % income from the total GDP value of 1.68 trillion baht.

From such information, it means indirect meaning that Thai farmers will have less income than other industrial sector. When it's like this, it's a result. The new generation doesn't want to be farmers.

EECi has another mission to innovate modern agriculture research. Modern Farming
To solve this problem by making productivity more but using less people but more quality.

With infrastructure such as Plant Factory (Plant Factory)
It's a technology to help new generation farmers to produce effectiveness.
Because it's a planting system. Shut up or semi-shut system can control the environment
Such as lighting, temperatures and food elements are suitable for plant growth.

Phenomics Greenhouse Technology Farmhouse (Phenomenics Greenhouse) will have equipment to measure the physical characteristics of plants.
Growing in various conditions of how high and growth is.
Then, gather as a database to help select strong plant species.

2. biofuels and biological chemicals
When the produce is much, it has to be sold more expensively.
This area will also serve advanced technology to privatize agricultural produce to increase in value.
One of them is Biorefinery. Biorefinery. A prototype to privatize agricultural produce.
Go to high value products

Which is Dr. Jane Kritthaya, Director EECi from National Science and Technology Development Office of the National Science and Technology Development Office (NCO) ) As the EECi regulatory agency says, ′′ EECi will help make more value for raw materials in the country to go to the world market. From the same time that Thailand sells ′′ tons of rice ′′ can be sold from rice to ′′ gram ′′ at the same time. More value added than ′′

By this prototype biological refinery starts from design, experimenting, agricultural produce.
Comes to the fermentation process, then separates the produce into 2 parts.

It's Non-GMP to produce fuel and biological materials.
And GMP will produce food, cosmetics and supplements.

3. high performance battery and modern transportation
Many people may not know that our country is the world's number 11 big car manufacturer.
But today. Car technology runs further than we think.

The trend of the world will surely occur, is that the combustion engine will gradually go extinct.
And will be replaced by BEV Car

And if we don't want to lose a huge income that will happen in the future.
It has to be Thailand as part of the manufacturing base of electric cars and future cars.
By one of the key structures is ′′ high performance battery production

For that reason, EECi will be a space to mobilize engineers and specialists in public and private sector. Think of how to make Thailand a top largest battery production base of Asia to develop unmanned automotive technology.

4. Automation, Robotics and Smart Electronics
We may have heard often that technology will replace human labor.
To keep industrial costs cheaper and more quality products.

EECi is not overlooked by the creation of robotics and intelligent industrial mechanical machines so that they can support and test the prototype development process, manufacturing products for entrepreneurs.

Make the innovation center sustainable or sustainable Manufacturing Center (SMC) develops people with knowledge.

So far, production line samples so that both small and medium produce sector have experimented with semi-automatic and automatic production processes. Make it suitable for your business or not. To bring information before making a real investment in your business.

5. Aviation and Space
Many people may question whether our country can actually do this?
But the government sector is considered in Thailand
World top manufacturing base and automotive parts
We should also be able to develop future aircraft and aircraft parts too.

When it's like this, EECi will be a gathering of good engineers to develop the aviation industry.
Unmanned aircraft to satellite

6. Medical Devices
From the facts of Thailand, we produce rubber gloves and condoms to the top of the world.

But.. another angle is a weakness.
Each year we import high tech medical devices, 7-8 billion baht per year.

Which if Thailand is a Medical Hub in the eyes of the world.
It's necessary to decrease imports and turn to manufacturers of advanced medical devices, technology.
Which would make EECi have a team to innovate to produce various medical instruments in the area.

Also, in the EECI area, there will be a 3 GeV Energy Level sin Light Generator
Which produces a million times brighter than the daylight.

With this brightness is like a special microscope.
Where we can see all kinds of material molecules on Earth thoroughly.

Interesting is this beam is an important science infrastructure.
Continuing research and development in various industries.

When looking at EECi, the side round must say this could be another turning point of the country.

We're doing all the way to build a higher business and new industries.
To add value to the Thai economic system.

Because if we don't hurry up to do it today.. in the future, we may be a country left behind.
It's hard to run a world that is changing so fast.

In the past, Thai research results invented at laboratory level, there are still limited to developing manufacturing processes to forward to useful users. We have weaknesses that are not invested in infrastructure and mechanism to expand research. And another side can't take much advantage of foreign advanced technology. Because of lack of infrastructure and mechanism to support technology adaptation to Thai context.

In the future, EECi would be an important infrastructure and mechanism of the country to shut down the weaknesses in this matter..

【 一封 Co-founder & CEO Brian Chesky 的來信 (中英對照)】

早上晨讀時看到 Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky 宣布裁員 25% 的公開信。讀完覺得富有同理心並思考周到，很值得每位 CEO 參考。

其中一些對於離職員工的就業支持都很值得我們借鏡。雖然 Airbnb 有的資源比很多公司還多。但說不定有什麼是創業家們能參考的，為離職的夥伴多做一些。

為了讓更多人可以看到跟夥伴合作翻譯了一下，不通順的地方請見諒、歡迎在 google doc 提交修改建議。

今天稍早，Airbnb 聯合創辦人兼執行長 Brian Chesky 向 Airbnb 員工發送了以下訊息。

Earlier today, Airbnb Co-Founder and CEO Brian Chesky sent the following note to Airbnb employees.

這是我第七次在我家裡與各位發表談話。過去每次我們談話時，有好消息也有壞消息，然而今天我不得不分享一些非常令人難過的消息。

This is my seventh time talking to you from my house. Each time we’ve talked, I’ve shared good news and bad news, but today I have to share some very sad news.

當你們問我關於裁員的問題時，我曾說過沒有什麼不可能發生的事。今天，我必須坦承，我們正在縮減 Airbnb 的員工規模。對於像我們這樣一家以歸屬感為使命的公司來說，這是非常難以面對的，對於那些不得不離開 Airbnb 的人來說更是難上加難。我將盡可能詳細地分享我是如何做出這個決定的、我們正在為那些離開的人做什麼、以及接下來會有哪些事發生。

When you’ve asked me about layoffs, I’ve said that nothing is off the table. Today, I must confirm that we are reducing the size of the Airbnb workforce. For a company like us whose mission is centered around belonging, this is incredibly difficult to confront, and it will be even harder for those who have to leave Airbnb. I am going to share as many details as I can on how I arrived at this decision, what we are doing for those leaving, and what will happen next.

先從我們是如何作出這項決定的開始。我們正在共同經歷我們一生中最痛苦的危機，隨著危機的開始，全球旅行業都陷入停滯。Airbnb 的業務受到了重大的打擊，今年的收入預計不到 2019 年的一半。為了應對這場危機，我們籌措了 20 億美元的資金、大幅削減了成本，幾乎觸及了 Airbnb 的每一個角落。

Let me start with how we arrived at this decision. We are collectively living through the most harrowing crisis of our lifetime, and as it began to unfold, global travel came to a standstill. Airbnb’s business has been hit hard, with revenue this year forecasted to be less than half of what we earned in 2019. In response, we raised $2 billion in capital and dramatically cut costs that touched nearly every corner of Airbnb.

採取這些行動是必要的，但很顯然，當我們面對兩個嚴峻的事實時，我們必須更進一步：

1. 我們不知道旅遊什麼時候會復甦。
2. 當旅遊業復甦時，將有截然不同的樣貌。

While these actions were necessary, it became clear that we would have to go further when we faced two hard truths:

1. We don’t know exactly when travel will return.
2. When travel does return, it will look different.

雖然我們知道 Airbnb 的業務終將恢復，但它所承受的變化不會是臨時或是短暫的。於是，我們需要對 Airbnb 做出更多根本性的改變，縮減人力規模以專注在更核心的商業策略。每天都有人們共享自己的房子、並提供各式各樣的體驗。

While we know Airbnb’s business will fully recover, the changes it will undergo are not temporary or short-lived. Because of this, we need to make more fundamental changes to Airbnb by reducing the size of our workforce around a more focused business strategy.

在我們 7500 名 Airbnb 員工中，近 1900 名成員將不得不離開 Airbnb，佔我們公司的 25% 左右。由於我們不能像過去那樣顧及每項業務，透過人力的裁減，我們將會更聚焦於特定的業務上。

Out of our 7,500 Airbnb employees, nearly 1,900 teammates will have to leave Airbnb, comprising around 25% of our company. Since we cannot afford to do everything that we used to, these cuts had to be mapped to a more focused business.

▍更聚焦的業務

未來在這世界旅行將截然不同，我們需要相對應地讓 Airbnb 進化改變。人們會希望有更像家、更安全、更經濟實惠的選擇。人們也會渴望某種感覺被奪走的東西——人與人之間的連結。當我們創立 Airbnb 時，它是建立於歸屬感和連結之上。這場危機使我們更加專注於根本、最基礎的事物、讓我們回到 Airbnb 真正的特別之處——每天都有人們共享自己的房子、並提供各式各樣的體驗。

這意味著，我們將需要減少對不直接支持我們的房東社區核心活動的投資。我們暫停了在運輸部門和 Airbnb Studio 方面的努力，我們不得不縮減在飯店和 Lux 的投資。

這些決定和這些團隊成員的表現無關，也不意味著這些團隊的每個人都會離開我們。除此之外，所有 Airbnb 的團隊都將受到影響。許多團隊的規模將根據他們與 Airbnb 的發展方向的對應程度進行縮減。

▍A more focused business

Travel in this new world will look different, and we need to evolve Airbnb accordingly. People will want options that are closer to home, safer, and more affordable. But people will also yearn for something that feels like it’s been taken away from them — human connection. When we started Airbnb, it was about belonging and connection. This crisis has sharpened our focus to get back to our roots, back to the basics, back to what is truly special about Airbnb — everyday people who host their homes and offer experiences.

This means that we will need to reduce our investment in activities that do not directly support the core of our host community. We are pausing our efforts in Transportation and Airbnb Studios, and we have to scale back our investments in Hotels and Lux.

These decisions are not a reflection of the work from people on these teams, and it does not mean everyone on these teams will be leaving us. Additionally, teams across all of Airbnb will be impacted. Many teams will be reduced in size based on how well they map to where Airbnb is headed.

▍我們如何進行縮編

重要的是，我們要有一套明確的原則，以我們的核心價值觀為指導，指導我們如何減少我們的勞動力。這些是我們的指導原則：

• 將所有縮減過的業務範疇和我們將需要的人手一一對應。
• 為那些受到影響的人盡可能提供協助。
• 在過程中持續地保持團隊多樣性。
• 為那些受影響的人提供一對一的溝通。
• 等到所有細節都確定後再進行決策溝通 —— 僅部分訊息的透明會讓事情變得更糟。

我已經盡了最大的努力來堅持這些原則。

▍How we approached reductions

It was important that we had a clear set of principles, guided by our core values, for how we would approach reductions in our workforce. These were our guiding principles:

• Map all reductions to our future business strategy and the capabilities we will need.
• Do as much as we can for those who are impacted.
• Be unwavering in our commitment to diversity.
• Optimize for 1:1 communication for those impacted.
• Wait to communicate any decisions until all details are landed — transparency of only partial information can make matters worse.
I have done my best to stay true to these principles.

▍還原決策過程

決策過程開始於建構一個更聚焦業務戰略的成本結構。我們評估了每個團隊如何適應我們的新戰略，並確定了每個團隊未來的規模和形式。緊接著，我們對每個團隊成員進行了全面地檢視，並根據關鍵技能以及這些技能與我們未來業務需求的匹配程度做出了決策。

結果是，我們將不得不與我們所熱愛和珍視的隊友們分道揚鑣。有很優秀的夥伴離開了 Airbnb，其他公司有他們的加入著實幸運。

為了照顧那些即將離開的員工，我們一一檢視了遣散、股權、醫療保健和就業支持，並盡最大努力以同理並周詳的方式對待每個人。

▍Process for making reductions

Our process started with creating a more focused business strategy built on a sustainable cost model. We assessed how each team mapped to our new strategy, and we determined the size and shape of each team going forward. We then did a comprehensive review of every team member and made decisions based on critical skills, and how well those skills matched our future business needs.

The result is that we will have to part with teammates that we love and value. We have great people leaving Airbnb, and other companies will be lucky to have them. To take care of those that are leaving, we have looked across severance, equity, healthcare, and job support and done our best to treat everyone in a compassionate and thoughtful way.

▍資遣費

Airbnb 在美國的員工將獲得 14 周的基礎工資，每滿一年額外增加一周。任期將四捨五入到最近的一年。例如，如果有人在 Airbnb 工作了 3 年 7 個月，他們將獲得額外 4 周的工資，或 18 周的總工資。在美國以外，所有員工都將獲得至少 14 周的工資，外加與其所在國家的具體做法一致的任期加薪。

▍Severance

Employees in the US will receive 14 weeks of base pay, plus one additional week for every year at Airbnb. Tenure will be rounded to the nearest year. For example, if someone has been at Airbnb for 3 years and 7 months, they will get an additional 4 weeks of salary, or 18 weeks of total pay. Outside the US, all employees will receive at least 14 weeks of pay, plus tenure increases consistent with their country-specific practices.

▍股權

我們將為過去一年內聘用的所有員工移除需待滿第一年的股權到期限制，這樣所有離職的員工，無論他們在公司工作了多長時間，都可以是 Airbnb 的股東。此外，所有離開的人都有資格以 5月25日作為行權日。

▍Equity

We are dropping the one-year cliff on equity for everyone we’ve hired in the past year so that everyone departing, regardless of how long they have been here, is a shareholder. Additionally, everyone leaving is eligible for the May 25 vesting date.

▍健康保險

在一場持續時間未知的全球健康危機中，我們希望限制醫療成本總負擔。在美國，我們將通過COBRA 覆蓋 12 個月的健康保險。在所有其他國家，我們將支付到 2020 年底的醫療保險費用。這是因為我們如非是在法律上不能繼續承保，就是我們目前的計劃將不允許延長。我們額外將透過 KonTerra 提供四個月的心理健康支持。

▍Healthcare

In the midst of a global health crisis of unknown duration, we want to limit the burden of healthcare costs. In the US, we will cover 12 months of health insurance through COBRA. In all other countries, we will cover health insurance costs through the end of 2020. This is because we’re either legally unable to continue coverage, or our current plans will not allow for an extension. We will also provide four months of mental health support through KonTerra.

▍就業支持

我們的目標是幫助離開 Airbnb 的隊友找到新的工作機會。以下是我們可以提供幫助的五種方式：

• 校友人才目錄 —— 我們將推出一個面向公眾的網站，幫助即將離職的隊友找到新工作。即將離職的員工可以選擇將個人資料、簡歷和工作樣本提供給潛在的雇主。
• 校友安置團隊 —— 在 2020 年的剩餘時間裡，Airbnb 招聘的很大一部分將成為校友安置團隊。留在 Airbnb 的招聘人員將為離職員工提供支持，幫助他們找到下一份工作。
• RiseSmart —— 我們通過 RiseSmart 公司提供四個月的職業服務，該公司專門提供職業轉換和就業安置服務。
• 員工提供校友支持 —— 我們鼓勵所有留下的員工選擇加入一個計劃，以幫助離職的隊友找到他們的下一個職位。
• 筆記型電腦 —— 電腦是找到新工作的重要工具，所以我們允許所有離職的人保留他們的蘋果筆電。

▍Job support

Our goal is to connect our teammates leaving Airbnb with new job opportunities. Here are five ways we can help:

• Alumni Talent Directory — We will be launching a public-facing website to help teammates leaving find new jobs. Departing employees can opt-in to have profiles, resumes, and work samples accessible to potential employers.
• Alumni Placement Team — For the remainder of 2020, a significant portion of Airbnb Recruiting will become an Alumni Placement Team. Recruiters that are staying with Airbnb will provide support to departing employees to help them find their next job.
• RiseSmart — We are offering four months of career services through RiseSmart, a company that specializes in career transition and job placement services.
• Employee Offered Alumni Support
We are encouraging all remaining employees to opt-in to a program to assist departing teammates find their next role.
• Laptops - A computer is an important tool to find new work, so we are allowing everyone leaving to keep their Apple laptops.

▍接下來會發生什麼呢？

我想盡快讓你們所有人知曉狀況。我們在 24 個國家/地區擁有員工，根據當地法律和慣例，提供清晰說明所需的時間各不相同。一些國家要求以非常具體的方式收到解僱通知。雖然我們的流程可能因國家而異，但我們在為每一位員工制定計劃時都力求做到深思熟慮。

在美國和加拿大，我可以提供直接的信息。在接下來的幾個小時內，即將離開 Airbnb 的人將收到一份日曆邀請函，邀請你們與本部門的一位高層領導參加離職會議。對我們來說，重要的是，在法律允許的範圍內，人們可以通過 1:1 的個人對話獲得信息。美國和加拿大離職員工的最後一個工作日將是 5月11日（星期一）。我們認為，週一將給人們時間開始採取下一步行動，並且有機會道別——我們理解並尊重這一點有多麼重要。

一些留下來的員工將賦予新的職位，並將收到主題為「新職位」的會議邀請，以瞭解更多相關信息。對於那些在美國和加拿大的 Airbnb 團隊成員，你將不會收到日曆邀請。

▍Here is what will happen next

I want to provide clarity to all of you as soon as possible. We have employees in 24 countries, and the time it will take to provide clarity will vary based on local laws and practices. Some countries require notifications about employment to be received in a very specific way. While our process may differ by country, we have tried to be thoughtful in planning for every employee. In the US and Canada, I can provide immediate clarity. Within the next few hours, those of you leaving Airbnb will receive a calendar invite to a departure meeting with a senior leader in your department.

It was important to us that wherever we legally could, people were informed in a personal, 1:1 conversation. The final working day for departing employees based in the US and Canada will be Monday, May 11. We felt Monday would give people time to begin taking next steps and say goodbye — we understand and respect how important this is.

Some employees who are staying will have a new role, and will receive a meeting invite with the subject “New Role” to learn more about it. For those of you in the US and Canada who are staying on the Airbnb team, you will not receive a calendar invite.

太平洋時間下午6點，我將為我們的亞太團隊主持一個 world@ 全球會議。太平洋時間上午12點，我將為我們的歐洲和中東團隊主持一個 world@ 全球會議。在每次會議之後，我們將根據當地的做法在每個國家開展下一步工作。

出於對我們受到影響的隊友的尊重，我已經要求所有
Airbnb 的負責人等到本週末再召集他們的團隊。我想給大家接下來的幾天時間來處理這個問題，我將在太平洋時間本週四下午 4 點再次主持一場 CEO 問答。

At 6pm pacific time, I will host a world@ meeting for our Asia-Pacific teams. At 12am pacific time, I will host a world@ meeting for our Europe and Middle East teams. Following each of these meetings, we’ll proceed with next steps in each country based on local practices.

I’ve asked all Airbnb leaders to wait to bring their teams together until the end of this week out of respect to our teammates being impacted. I want to give everyone the next few days to process this, and I’ll host a CEO Q&A again this Thursday at 4pm pacific time.

▍一些最後的話

正如我在過去八周所瞭解到的，危機讓你清楚什麼才是真正重要的。雖然我們經歷了一場旋風，但有些事情對我來說比以往任何時候都清楚。

首先，我要感謝 Airbnb 的每一個人。在這段痛苦的經歷中，你們所有人都激勵了我。即使在最糟糕的情況下，我也看到了我們最好的一面。世界現在比以往任何時候都更需要人與人之間的聯繫，我知道 Airbnb 會在這種時空背景下崛起。我相信這一點，正因為我相信你們。

第二，我對各位有一種深深的愛。我們的任務不僅僅是旅行。當我們創建 Airbnb 時，我們最初的口號是「像個人一般旅行」，人的部分總是比旅行的部分更重要。我們所關心的是歸屬感，而歸屬感的核心是愛。

▍Some final words

As I have learned these past eight weeks, a crisis brings you clarity about what is truly important. Though we have been through a whirlwind, some things are more clear to me than ever before.

First, I am thankful for everyone here at Airbnb. Throughout this harrowing experience, I have been inspired by all of you. Even in the worst of circumstances, I’ve seen the very best of us. The world needs human connection now more than ever, and I know that Airbnb will rise to the occasion. I believe this because I believe in you.

Second, I have a deep feeling of love for all of you. Our mission is not merely about travel. When we started Airbnb, our original tagline was, “Travel like a human.” The human part was always more important than the travel part. What we are about is belonging, and at the center of belonging is love.

對於留下來的你們，
我們向那些即將離開的人致敬的最重要方式之一，是讓他們知道他們的貢獻是重要的，他們將永遠是 Airbnb 故事中的一部分。我相信，他們的貢獻將繼續下去，就像我們的使命將持續不斷一般。

對於那些離開 Airbnb 的人，
我真的很抱歉。請知道這不是你的錯。世界永遠不會停止渴望你們帶給 Airbnb 的品質和才華……正是你們成就了 Airbnb。我衷心感謝你們與我們分享你們的天賦。

布萊恩

To those of you staying, One of the most important ways we can honor those who are leaving is for them to know that their contributions mattered, and that they will always be part of Airbnb’s story. I am confident their work will live on, just like this mission will live on.

To those leaving Airbnb, I am truly sorry. Please know this is not your fault. The world will never stop seeking the qualities and talents that you brought to Airbnb…that helped make Airbnb. I want to thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for sharing them with us.

Brian

今天稍早，Airbnb 聯合創辦人兼執行長 Brian Chesky 向 Airbnb 員工發送了以下訊息。
Earlier today, Airbnb Co-Founder and CEO Brian Chesky sent the following note to Airbnb employees.
這是我第七次在我家裡與各位發表談話。過去每次我們談話時，有好消息也有壞消息，然而今天我不得不分享一些非常令人難過的消息。
This is my seventh time talking to you from my house. Each time we’ve talked, I’ve shared good news and bad news, but today I have to share some very sad news.
當你們問我關於裁員的問題時，我曾說過沒有什麼不可能發生的事。今天，我必須坦承，我們正在縮減 Airbnb 的員工規模。對於像我們這樣一家以歸屬感為使命的公司來說，這是非常難以面對的，對於那些不得不離開Airbnb的人來說更是難上加難。我將盡可能詳細地分享我是如何做出這個決定的、我們正在為那些離開的人做什麼、以及接下來會有哪些事發生。
When you’ve asked me about layoffs, I’ve said that nothing is off the table. Today, I must confirm that we are reducing the size of the Airbnb workforce. For a company like us whose mission is centered around belonging, this is incredibly difficult to confront, and it will be even harder for those who have to leave Airbnb. I am going to share as many details as I can on how I arrived at this decision, what we are doing for those leaving, and what will happen next.
先從我們是如何作出這項決定的開始。我們正在共同經歷我們一生中最痛苦的危機，隨著危機的開始，全球旅行業都陷入停滯。Airbnb 的業務受到了重大的打擊，今年的收入預計不到 2019 年的一半。為了應對這場危機，我們籌措了 20 億美元的資金、大幅削減了成本，幾乎觸及了Airbnb的每一個角落。
Let me start with how we arrived at this decision. We are collectively living through the most harrowing crisis of our lifetime, and as it began to unfold, global travel came to a standstill. Airbnb’s business has been hit hard, with revenue this year forecasted to be less than half of what we earned in 2019. In response, we raised $2 billion in capital and dramatically cut costs that touched nearly every corner of Airbnb.
採取這些行動是必要的，但很顯然，當我們面對兩個嚴峻的事實時，我們必須更進一步：
我們不知道旅遊什麼時候會復甦。
當旅遊業復甦時，將有截然不同的樣貌。
While these actions were necessary, it became clear that we would have to go further when we faced two hard truths:
We don’t know exactly when travel will return.
When travel does return, it will look different.
雖然我們知道 Airbnb 的業務終將恢復，但它所承受的變化不會是臨時或是短暫的。於是，我們需要對 Airbnb 做出更多根本性的改變，圍繞更專注的商業策略，去減少我們的員工規模。
While we know Airbnb’s business will fully recover, the changes it will undergo are not temporary or short-lived. Because of this, we need to make more fundamental changes to Airbnb by reducing the size of our workforce around a more focused business strategy.
在我們 7500 名 Airbnb 員工中，近 1900 名成員將不得不離開Airbnb，佔我們公司的 25% 左右。由於我們不能像過去那樣顧及每項業務，這些削減必須與更聚焦的業務掛鈎。
Out of our 7,500 Airbnb employees, nearly 1,900 teammates will have to leave Airbnb, comprising around 25% of our company. Since we cannot afford to do everything that we used to, these cuts had to be mapped to a more focused business.
▍更聚焦的業務
未來在這世界旅行將截然不同，我們需要相對應地讓 Airbnb 進化改變。人們會希望有更像家、更安全、更經濟實惠的選擇。人們也會渴望某種感覺被奪走的東西——人與人之間的連結。當我們創立 Airbnb 時，它是建立於歸屬感和連結之上。這場危機使我們更加專注於根本、最基礎的事物、讓我們回到 Airbnb 真正的特別之處——每天都有人打理自己的房子，並提供各式各樣體驗。
這意味著，我們將需要減少對不直接支持我們的房東社區核心的活動的投資。我們暫停了在通行和 Airbnb Studio 方面的努力，我們不得不縮減在飯店和 Lux 的投資。
這些決定並不是反應這些團隊成員工作表現好壞，也不意味著這些團隊的每個人都會離開我們。除此之外，所有Airbnb的團隊都將受到影響。許多團隊的規模將根據他們與Airbnb的發展方向的對應程度進行縮減。
▍A more focused business
Travel in this new world will look different, and we need to evolve Airbnb accordingly. People will want options that are closer to home, safer, and more affordable. But people will also yearn for something that feels like it’s been taken away from them — human connection. When we started Airbnb, it was about belonging and connection. This crisis has sharpened our focus to get back to our roots, back to the basics, back to what is truly special about Airbnb — everyday people who host their homes and offer experiences.
This means that we will need to reduce our investment in activities that do not directly support the core of our host community. We are pausing our efforts in Transportation and Airbnb Studios, and we have to scale back our investments in Hotels and Lux.
These decisions are not a reflection of the work from people on these teams, and it does not mean everyone on these teams will be leaving us. Additionally, teams across all of Airbnb will be impacted. Many teams will be reduced in size based on how well they map to where Airbnb is headed.
▍我們如何進行縮編
重要的是，我們要有一套明確的原則，以我們的核心價值觀為指導，指導我們如何減少我們的勞動力。這些是我們的指導原則:
• 將所有縮減過的業務範疇和我們將需要的人手一一對應。
• 為那些受到影響的人盡可能提供協助。
• 在過程中持續地保持團隊多樣性。
• 為那些受影響的人提供 1:1。
• 等到所有細節都確定後再進行決策溝通——僅部分訊息的透明會讓事情變得更糟。
我已經盡了最大的努力來堅持這些原則。
▍How we approached reductions
It was important that we had a clear set of principles, guided by our core values, for how we would approach reductions in our workforce. These were our guiding principles:
• Map all reductions to our future business strategy and the capabilities we will need.
• Do as much as we can for those who are impacted.
• Be unwavering in our commitment to diversity.
• Optimize for 1:1 communication for those impacted.
• Wait to communicate any decisions until all details are landed — transparency of only partial information can make matters worse.
I have done my best to stay true to these principles.
▍還原決策過程
決策過程開始於建構一個更聚焦業務戰略的成本結構。我們評估了每個團隊如何適應我們的新戰略，並確定了每個團隊未來的規模和形式。然後，我們對每個團隊成員進行了全面地檢視，並根據關鍵技能以及這些技能與我們未來業務需求的匹配程度做出了決策。
結果是，我們將不得不與我們所熱愛和珍視的隊友們分道揚鑣。有很優秀的夥伴離開了Airbnb，其他公司有他們的加入著實幸運。
為了照顧那些即將離開的員工，我們一一檢視了遣散、股權、醫療保健和就業支持，並盡最大努力以同理並周詳的方式對待每個人。
▍Process for making reductions
Our process started with creating a more focused business strategy built on a sustainable cost model. We assessed how each team mapped to our new strategy, and we determined the size and shape of each team going forward. We then did a comprehensive review of every team member and made decisions based on critical skills, and how well those skills matched our future business needs.
The result is that we will have to part with teammates that we love and value. We have great people leaving Airbnb, and other companies will be lucky to have them. To take care of those that are leaving, we have looked across severance, equity, healthcare, and job support and done our best to treat everyone in a compassionate and thoughtful way.
▍資遣費
Airbnb 在美國的員工將獲得 14 周的基本工資，每滿一年額外增加一周。任期將四捨五入到最近的一年。例如，如果有人在Airbnb工作了 3 年 7 個月，他們將獲得額外 4 周的工資，或 18 周的總工資。在美國以外，所有員工都將獲得至少 14 周的工資，外加與其所在國家的具體做法一致的任期加薪。
▍Severance
Employees in the US will receive 14 weeks of base pay, plus one additional week for every year at Airbnb. Tenure will be rounded to the nearest year. For example, if someone has been at Airbnb for 3 years and 7 months, they will get an additional 4 weeks of salary, or 18 weeks of total pay. Outside the US, all employees will receive at least 14 weeks of pay, plus tenure increases consistent with their country-specific practices.
▍股權
我們將為過去一年內聘用的所有員工提供一整年的股權到期，這樣所有離職的員工，無論他們在公司工作了多長時間，都可以是 Airbnb 的股東。此外，所有離開的人都有資格以 5月25日作為行權日。
▍Equity
We are dropping the one-year cliff on equity for everyone we’ve hired in the past year so that everyone departing, regardless of how long they have been here, is a shareholder. Additionally, everyone leaving is eligible for the May 25 vesting date.
▍健康保險
在一場持續時間未知的全球健康危機中，我們希望限制醫療成本總負擔。在美國，我們將通過COBRA 覆蓋12個月的健康保險。在所有其他國家，我們將支付到2020年底的醫療保險費用。這是因為我們如非是在在法律上不能繼續承保，就是我們目前的計劃將不允許延長。我們額外將通過 KonTerra 提供四個月的心理健康支持。
▍Healthcare
In the midst of a global health crisis of unknown duration, we want to limit the burden of healthcare costs. In the US, we will cover 12 months of health insurance through COBRA. In all other countries, we will cover health insurance costs through the end of 2020. This is because we’re either legally unable to continue coverage, or our current plans will not allow for an extension. We will also provide four months of mental health support through KonTerra.
▍就業支持
我們的目標是幫助離開Airbnb的隊友找到新的工作機會。以下是我們可以提供幫助的五種方式:
• 校友人才目錄——我們將推出一個面向公眾的網站，幫助即將離職的隊友找到新工作。即將離職的員工可以選擇將個人資料、簡歷和工作樣本提供給潛在的雇主。
• 校友安置團隊——在 2020 年的剩餘時間里，Airbnb招聘的很大一部分將成為校友安置團隊。留在Airbnb的招聘人員將為離職員工提供支持，幫助他們找到下一份工作。
• RiseSmart——我們通過 RiseSmart 公司提供四個月的職業服務，該公司專門提供職業轉換和就業安置服務。
• 員工提供校友支持-我們鼓勵所有留下的員工選擇加入一個計劃，以幫助離職的隊友找到他們的下一個職位。
• 筆記本電腦——電腦是找到新工作的重要工具，所以我們允許所有離職的人保留他們的蘋果筆電。
▍Job support
Our goal is to connect our teammates leaving Airbnb with new job opportunities. Here are five ways we can help:
Alumni Talent Directory — We will be launching a public-facing website to help teammates leaving find new jobs. Departing employees can opt-in to have profiles, resumes, and work samples accessible to potential employers.
Alumni Placement Team — For the remainder of 2020, a significant portion of Airbnb Recruiting will become an Alumni Placement Team. Recruiters that are staying with Airbnb will provide support to departing employees to help them find their next job.
RiseSmart — We are offering four months of career services through RiseSmart, a company that specializes in career transition and job placement services. Employee Offered Alumni Support
We are encouraging all remaining employees to opt-in to a program to assist departing teammates find their next role. Laptops
A computer is an important tool to find new work, so we are allowing everyone leaving to keep their Apple laptops.
▍接下來會發生什麼呢？
我想盡快讓你們所有人知曉狀況。我們在 24 個國家/地區擁有員工，根據當地法律和慣例，提供清晰說明所需的時間各不相同。一些國家要求以非常具體的方式收到解僱通知。雖然我們的流程可能因國家而異，但我們在為每一位員工制定計劃時都力求做到深思熟慮。
在美國和加拿大，我可以提供直接的信息。在接下來的幾個小時內，即將離開Airbnb的人將收到一份日曆邀請函，邀請你們與本部門的一位高層領導參加離職會議。對我們來說，重要的是，在法律允許的範圍內，人們可以通過 1:1 的個人對話獲得信息。美國和加拿大離職員工的最後一個工作日將是 5月11日（星期一）。我們認為，週一將給人們時間開始採取下一步行動，並且有機會道別——我們理解並尊重這一點有多麼重要。
一些留下來的員工將賦予新的職位，並將收到主題為"新職位"的會議邀請，以瞭解更多相關信息。對於那些在美國和加拿大的 Airbnb 團隊成員，你將不會收到日曆邀請。
▍Here is what will happen next
I want to provide clarity to all of you as soon as possible. We have employees in 24 countries, and the time it will take to provide clarity will vary based on local laws and practices. Some countries require notifications about employment to be received in a very specific way. While our process may differ by country, we have tried to be thoughtful in planning for every employee. In the US and Canada, I can provide immediate clarity. Within the next few hours, those of you leaving Airbnb will receive a calendar invite to a departure meeting with a senior leader in your department.
It was important to us that wherever we legally could, people were informed in a personal, 1:1 conversation. The final working day for departing employees based in the US and Canada will be Monday, May 11. We felt Monday would give people time to begin taking next steps and say goodbye — we understand and respect how important this is.
Some employees who are staying will have a new role, and will receive a meeting invite with the subject “New Role” to learn more about it. For those of you in the US and Canada who are staying on the Airbnb team, you will not receive a calendar invite.
太平洋時間下午6點，我將為我們的亞太團隊主持一個 World@ 全球會議。太平洋時間上午12點，我將為我們的歐洲和中東團隊主持一個 World@ 全球會議。在每次會議之後，我們將根據當地的做法在每個國家開展下一步工作。
出於對我們受到影響的隊友的尊重，我已經要求所有Airbnb的負責人等到本週末再召集他們的團隊。我想給大家接下來的幾天時間來處理這個問題，我將在太平洋時間本週四下午4點再次主持一場 CEO 問答。
At 6pm pacific time, I will host a world@ meeting for our Asia-Pacific teams. At 12am pacific time, I will host a world@ meeting for our Europe and Middle East teams. Following each of these meetings, we’ll proceed with next steps in each country based on local practices.
I’ve asked all Airbnb leaders to wait to bring their teams together until the end of this week out of respect to our teammates being impacted. I want to give everyone the next few days to process this, and I’ll host a CEO Q&A again this Thursday at 4pm pacific time.
▍一些最後的話
正如我在過去八周所瞭解到的，危機讓你清楚什麼才是真正重要的。雖然我們經歷了一場旋風，但有些事情對我來說比以往任何時候都清楚。
首先，我要感謝Airbnb的每一個人。在這段痛苦的經歷中，你們所有人都激勵了我。即使在最糟糕的情況下，我也看到了我們最好的一面。世界現在比以往任何時候都更需要人與人之間的聯繫，我知道Airbnb會在這種時空邊下崛起。我相信這一點，正因為我相信你們。
第二，我對各位有一種深深的愛。我們的任務不僅僅是旅行。當我們創建Airbnb時，我們最初的口號是"像個人一般旅行"，人的部分總是比旅行的部分更重要。我們所關心的是歸屬感，而歸屬感的核心是愛。
▍Some final words
As I have learned these past eight weeks, a crisis brings you clarity about what is truly important. Though we have been through a whirlwind, some things are more clear to me than ever before.
First, I am thankful for everyone here at Airbnb. Throughout this harrowing experience, I have been inspired by all of you. Even in the worst of circumstances, I’ve seen the very best of us. The world needs human connection now more than ever, and I know that Airbnb will rise to the occasion. I believe this because I believe in you.
Second, I have a deep feeling of love for all of you. Our mission is not merely about travel. When we started Airbnb, our original tagline was, “Travel like a human.” The human part was always more important than the travel part. What we are about is belonging, and at the center of belonging is love.
對你們留下來的人，我們向那些即將離開的人致敬的最重要方式之一，是讓他們知道他們的貢獻是重要的，他們將永遠是Airbnb故事中的一部分。我相信，他們的貢獻將繼續下去，就像我們的使命將持續不斷一般。
對於那些離開Airbnb的人，我真的很抱歉。請知道這不是你的錯。世界永遠不會停止渴望你們帶給Airbnb的品質和才華……正是你們成就了Airbnb。我衷心感謝你們與我們分享你們的天賦。
布萊恩
To those of you staying, One of the most important ways we can honor those who are leaving is for them to know that their contributions mattered, and that they will always be part of Airbnb’s story. I am confident their work will live on, just like this mission will live on.
To those leaving Airbnb, I am truly sorry. Please know this is not your fault. The world will never stop seeking the qualities and talents that you brought to Airbnb…that helped make Airbnb. I want to thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for sharing them with us.
Brian

被困在你離去的那晚，
剩我一人的世界，是場漫長的雨季。
多年後偶遇，那一刻才驚覺，
原來，我還留在那個晚上。


韋禮安 Sounds of My Life ＿懺情篇
「紀錄為愛所困的一場雨季」上集《不用告訴我》

# 關於前任
# 愛情斷捨離太怨
# 被困住的原來只有自己
# 住在同一個城市的你早已往前走
# 到我永遠無法碰觸的遠方
# 雨季何時會停
# 不用告訴我

韋禮安最新創作專輯「Sounds of My Life」
取樣朋友的真實心情、赤裸的懺情紀實
紀錄為愛所困的這場雨季。
上集「不用告訴我」

【故事大綱】
兩個分手失聯多年的戀人，五年後突然偶遇；
男人跟以前差不多，女人卻成熟煥發、身邊多一個伴。
晚上男人接到女人約吃宵夜的簡訊，
意味著什麼呢？
忘不了舊情？還是只想看自己笑話？
男人會赴約嗎？
該用什麼表情，見自己的前任呢？

不用告訴我 Don't Tell

詞 WeiBird 韋禮安
曲 WeiBird 韋禮安

怎麼我 總是躲不過這場雨
你一句 就把我 送進了雨季

這條路 我只想一直走下去
沒盡頭 也是種 永恆的約定

就讓我 一直走 一直錯 一直走
只要你不開口 就不需要回頭
就能一直擁有這樣的你和我 所以

你不用告訴我 他算什麼
這場夢 太脆弱 禁不起被說破 所以
你不用告訴我 因為我懂
再近的 平行線 永遠不會交錯 讓我
卑微地享受
片刻的永久

我知道 你只想 分享這秘密
給自己 最相信 依賴的知己

殊不知 我不想 揭開誰的底
因為我 只能夠 存活在謎題裡

就讓我
一直走 一直走 一直錯 一直走
你不開口 我就不要回頭
我要一直擁有這樣的你和我 所以

我想我 終究躲不過這場雨
就一次 把自己 徹底地澆熄

這秘密 容許我 留給我自己
我心裡 永遠留 個地方給你

THE BEAUTIFUL GREEN CITY OF NANNING, GUANGXI, CHINA

We dined in DFC, almost an exact copy of KFC, featuring even an Asian Colonel Sanders.

That aside, I find Nanning one off the cleanest cities in the world. Living up to it's name, the Green City (绿城). Bikes are 100% electric while cars are either expensive sport cars or hybrids.

Transportation and their facilities ie airport, train stations etc are extremely advance here. It's like the city of the future.

Their rivers are blue and so clean that we can even just swim across it and fish are almost clearly visible. Mountains, parks, and forests are abundant, they are basically everywhere. There are no industrial buildings or businesses within over 200 miles radius of the city.

Businesses are mostly cashless and phone applications are widely used.

Unlike some parts of China I've been to, people here are mostly classy, gentle, friendly, and nice.

Special thanks to my good friend Han and his friends for bringing us around.
