Localization Department Editor & Team Leader
Hongkong GrandStrong Language Co., Ltd. (GSL), formerly Shenzhen Telecomm Translation Co., Ltd., was filled with brand new power through M&A in 2010. And within one year, the company has established branches in Shenzhen, Hongkong, Beijing and Hefei respectively, showing a strong developing trend.

The main business of the company includes: traditional translation, localization, technical writing and service outsourcing, as well as software development and engineering test, with close cooperation with many huge-scale enterprises such as Philips, Huawei, Kingdee, etc. In terms of localization, the main clients are among Microchip, Apple, Standard Chartered Bank, LG, Transperfect Translation, and so on.

I acted as a senior editor as well as the Leader of Apple Project Team, responsible for the initial assessment, editing and reviewing, and quality control of ordinary projects. And for Apple projects, including iPhoto and Motion 5 etc., I took the whole responsibility for staff deployment and project preparation in the beginning, the reviewing and quality assurance during the process, and the overall management and delivery in the final stage. In addition, I am in charge of especially law materials from many customers due to my strong relating knowledge and rigorous logic.

This working experience made me thoroughly realized that, the translation is a kind of rigorous art, but not a war of one. A powerful and closely cooperated team is essential, and a leader who knows how to guide and neutralize the negative team emotion and proactively set up the example is a must as well.
