Some interactions are about getting to know a company.
Some conversations reveal the future of an industry.
There are also exchanges between outstanding individuals in different fields, where they recognize each other's direction.
The delegation led by the President of the Zhongyuan Association visited Lingjun Quantitative Investment Management Co., Ltd., a leading quantitative investment institution in China. The visit featured in-depth discussions on quantitative investment trends, fintech development, global asset allocation, and synergies between industrial capital and financial markets.
This day was not merely a visit, but rather a conversation about how enterprises will grow over the next decade.

Different fields, different backgrounds, yet all are earnestly contemplating the same thing:
Where is the future? Where should enterprises go?
II. Step into Lingjun and Witness the Foundational Force Behind Fintech
Lingjun Investment was established in 2014 and is a private fund manager registered with the Asset Management Association of China (P1004526). It has since grown into one of China's leading institutions in quantitative investment. Here, we gather a team of professionals who truly understand the market through models.
Team members come from:
WorldQuant、Citadel、Two Sigma、Jump Trading、Millennium，
as well as tech companies such as Tencent, Baidu, and ByteDance.
Members of the investment research team graduated from:
MIT, Stanford, Oxford, Berkeley, National University of Singapore, Tsinghua University, Peking University, Cornell, University of Chicago, New York University, etc. Over 85% of graduates hold master's or doctoral degrees.
If traditional finance is more about experience and judgment, quantitative finance is more like a dialogue between mathematics and the world.
III. The real challenge has never been winning once, but staying ahead
Lingjun Investment has consistently maintained its industry leadership:
Multiple recipient of the China Securities Journal's “Golden Bull Award” and the China Fund Journal's “Yinghua Award”
The firm has garnered over 200 industry accolades and secured the top spot in returns among quantitative private funds with assets under management exceeding 10 billion yuan in 2025.
What truly earns recognition is not a single year's ranking, but the consistent, long-term capability of the system.
IV. In this era, cognitive advancement matters more than resources
Future business competition will no longer be solely about who has more capital or greater scale.
Rather, it is about who understands trends, who grasps technology, who comprehends the global landscape, and who can persistently stay on the right path over the long term.
When capital, technology, and industry begin to converge, what truly determines a company's height is the cognitive boundaries of its entrepreneurs.
Truly outstanding entrepreneurs never focus solely on the immediate year ahead.
They are more concerned about where the next generation of companies will be in five years, ten years, or even beyond.
Businesses grow large through opportunities.
A company's long-term success depends on its structure.
A company's stability hinges on its values.
V. A good connection illuminates each other, rather than draining each other
Everyone would also like to extend their special thanks to:
The warm hospitality extended by Mr. Lin Zhen, Chairman of host company Shanghai Industrial Leasing and InGold Premier; and the meticulous arrangements made by Mr. Fan Ziping of the Zhongyuan Club.
Looking forward to more gatherings and exchanges like this in the future—ones that are both meaningful and heartwarming.
Marching toward the new, thriving toward the distant horizon.
The era rewards those who embrace long-termism; the future belongs to enterprises that continuously evolve.
