100 People, 100 Hours: Every Step Taken to 'Go Farther' – Official Prospectus Filed

The profound loneliness of an entrepreneur lies in the dwindling number of kindred spirits who can accompany them on their inward journey as they press forward. We have always emphasized speed and relentless effort, yet what truly enables us to overcome myriad obstacles is perseverance, resilience, and the capacity to go the distance.

Investors tend to prioritize speed and aggressive competition, reviewing thousands of projects annually and engaging with a diverse array of entrepreneurs. However, true achievement often stems from accompanying entrepreneurs through their growth and shared experiences—maintaining confidence when others are skeptical, and continuing to provide support when others give up, thereby fostering mutual success.

Go faster, go farther.

In 2018, amidst the prevailing “capital winter” and “startup winter,” along with an unpredictable international landscape, venture capitalists remained steadfast in their belief that challenges always harbor opportunities, and that true growth lies in resilience and self-cultivation. Walk alongside those who share your vision, and journey farther with those who walk the same path.

In 2018, we embarked on a Gobi Desert trek together, inviting 100 venture capitalists and investors from the healthcare sector to traverse 88 kilometers over four days and three nights—to conquer, to challenge, and to discover another side of ourselves.

The road ahead is difficult; let us walk it together.

In 627 AD (the first year of the Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty), the great Master Xuanzang underwent one of the most perilous legs of his westward journey here.

He was once hunted and threatened; he once endured five days and four nights in the Gobi Desert without a single drop of water; he was even betrayed by his only disciple. He, too, experienced moments of retreat and hesitation, but ultimately chose to uphold the resolve: “Better to die heading west than to return east merely to survive!” Perseverance itself is transcendence. Here, Master Xuanzang, having narrowly escaped death time and again, achieved a pivotal turning point in his life.

Not only that, this is where the great Silk Road began its journey to the world, and it is also a landmark symbolizing the openness and prosperity of the Chinese nation. To understand the prosperity of China’s commercial century today, one must look back at history and seek the “roots” of the present in the wisdom of our ancestors.

The Gobi Desert trek, much like entrepreneurship, is a journey fraught with intense internal struggles. Passion, exhaustion, pain, reflection, perseverance, resilience, companionship, emotional moments, and tears all intertwine along the way. The obstacles encountered and the experiences gained remain largely unknown to outsiders; only those who have walked this path can truly comprehend the arduous psychological journey of building a venture. Yet, it is precisely through this ordeal that one draws renewed spiritual strength for the road ahead.

No brothers, no long journeys; if we travel together, we will never let each other down. One hundred investors and entrepreneurs, elites all, journeyed side by side—sharing joyful laughter and moving tears. Having traversed vast deserts and rugged Gobi landscapes, we have become brothers and sisters who can truly open our hearts to one another.

For this 100-hour Gobi Desert trek, we have invited renowned investors to join us, selecting participants based on dimensions such as assets under management (AUM), number of invested projects, total investment amount, return multiples, project impact, and exit performance.Ren Bobing, Vice President of Baidu Ventures; Qi Fei, Vice President of Legend Capital; Zhang Ying, Investment Director at GF XindeAlready joined the team, and alsoZero2IPO Group,Legend Star, Health Intelligence Valley, Probe Capital…

Through trekking across the Gobi Desert, entrepreneurs will cultivate and strengthen their inner resilience, transcend their limits, solidify their dreams, and move forward with greater power. Venture mentors will share their entrepreneurial experiences, enabling entrepreneurs to transition from walking alone to journeying alongside like-minded peers.

In 2018, hundreds of high-quality startups emerged, gaining recognition from investors and judges in various competitions.
