I’ve made a lot of new friends recently, both on X and in person. A few days ago, Ms Kwek Poh Heok, CEO of Business China, and her team visited Waterdrop’s Beijing headquarters. A few observations I wanted to share: - Being AI-native is not about bolting another tool onto an old workflow. Underwriting, customer service and healthcare delivery all need to be rethought from the ground up. In the end, it comes back to the user: can we reduce the time and effort families spend navigating insurance and healthcare, while giving them better protection? - Globalization is a necessary part of a company’s growth. Spending too long competing for existing demand at home only drains a team’s energy. Once a team has built up real operating muscle, it’s time to test those capabilities in larger markets. Waterdrop now has dual headquarters in Beijing and the Greater Bay Area, with Hong Kong serving as a hub connecting us to global markets, while we continue to explore Southeast Asia. Chinese and Singaporean companies bring highly complementary strengths in technology, innovation and industry collaboration. There is a lot we can do together. Thank you to Ms Kwek and her team for visiting. Looking forward to more conversations and collaboration.

I just joined X 👋 I'm Shen Peng — Meituan's first intern, now founder of @WaterDrop_Inc. Earlier today I shared my 10-year story on my Chinese account 👇 I'm already writing the full English version — more detailed, with its own focus. What do you want it to cover?

Tonight I brought my core @waterdrop_inc team over to Manus for an incredibly productive deep dive. Big thanks to @Red_Xiao_ and @hidecloud for hosting us in person — great to connect with you both on site for such a thoughtful, wide-ranging conversation. It was genuinely inspiring to experience the team’s energy and company culture firsthand — the kind of environment where great ideas take shape. We covered everything from cutting-edge AI developments to the broader future trajectory of AI agents together, and walked away with tons of actionable insights. We’re excited to keep the conversation going with the @manusai team and explore more innovative possibilities together.

I thought I had the leading role. Then the final cut came in — the real boss enters last. They're not bowing to me. They're bowing to the one who writes everyone's meeting notes. Meetings shouldn't be manual labor. Meet @ComuAI_ — the ending every office deserves. 😎
