Vpon\u2019s Founder and CEO Mr. Victor Wu was invited by CommonWealth Magazine, featuring a dialogue with Dr. Lee-Feng Chien, the former Google Taiwan Managing Director. They talked glowingly about the secrets behind Vpon\u2019s 7-year endeavor for tapping into Japan market, as well as the ups and downs experience of starting a new business.<\/p>\n
Dr. Lee-Feng Chien described Vpon\u2019s Founder and CEO Mr. Victor Wu as a daring leader since he was the first Taiwanese entrepreneur who was bold in poaching talent from Google\u2019s headquarter. When Vpon was just a startup 7 years ago, Victor led the team and faced numerous challenges when tapping into Japan market. He had once thought of withdrawing from the market but the samurai-spirit of Vpon JAPAN\u2019s manager cheered him up. Victor then bravely decided to invest more and take risk along with expectation from boards of directors. It is his venturesomeness that enables him to gain trust from two large Japanese enterprises, JR Group and JNTO, and turned them into our long-term clients.<\/p>\n
Japan market is like a castle which is easy to defend but hard to capture. The key is to be patient and build trust. With Vpon\u2019s experience, given Japanese are relatively conservative, it will take nearly three years to establish a sense of trust with local clients and partners. Yet, when you have done so, the relationship will last.<\/p>\n
The core elements of Japan\u2019s management style are \u201crespect and trust.\u201d Our team in Japan often told Victor, \u201cPlease trust me. This is the Japanese style!\u201d Japanese way of communication is comparatively implicit, and it is basically impossible for outsiders to master it. Thus, Victor will never choose the man he does not trust, and never doubt the man who he chose.<\/p>\n
