Feature: 2026 New Year's Addresses - Entrepreneurs' Outlook on 2026 Trends On January 1, GCL Group Chairman Zhu Gongshan delivered his 2026 New Year address titled "Humorously Engaging with Challenges Like Su Chao." In his address, Zhu noted that as the "15th Five-Year Plan" commences, a series of grand blueprints outline a promising future. "While riding the fast horse of AI, we must more prominently display the precious traits that make us human—integrating heaven and earth, embracing universal love for all things, more attentively sensing the spring blossoms on the branches, and more sincerely releasing warm currents into the human world. Amidst algorithm-driven content, rapidly shifting trends, event-driven pressures, and rising emotions, we must maintain a clear and lucid awareness."

He further discussed, "We must steer technology towards benevolence and ecosystems towards altruism, profoundly correct ineffective consumption and excessive competition, reconcile with all favorable and adverse circumstances, and closely link our relentless efforts with the well-being of others: I exist, I confront, I take responsibility, and I strive tirelessly every single day, not solely for my own benefit."
