Beyond the technical aspects of design, teamwork and collaboration are considered essential for successful project execution. Ignited by teamwork, Jojo enjoys working in environments with lean hierarchy, where open communication and the free flow of ideas are encouraged. A dynamic team that emphasizes mutual support and problem-solving is highly valued. He believes in an approach where ideas aren’t imposed but are shaped through collaboration and consensus, driving projects forward together. In the fast-paced design industry, with its tight deadlines, shifting client demands, and complex logistics, having a cohesive team with seamless communication is essential.

After working for 13 years, he has experienced highly stressful work situations, particularly during his freelance period, where projects often became intense due to clients’ sudden demands. For instance, during the Tmall Gala project, a client’s last-minute request caused mechanical failures, necessitating urgent repairs to the entire exhibition system. In high-pressure situations, coordinating across multiple functions to resolve issues has taught the importance of teamwork and the fulfillment that comes from overcoming challenges together. A deep sense of responsibility drives the desire to protect the team, knowing that their success and well-being are closely tied to personal actions. Even though he is more reserved, a genuine care for others motivates stepping up when things get tough, offering support and guidance when it matters most. With a calm, determined presence, Jojo’s leadership comes through by example, quietly building trust and loyalty through commitment and a sensitivity to the needs of the team.

“Design is more than a profession; it's a form of self-expression, a way to convey personal perspectives on the world, especially human relationships,” said Jojo. In a society where true feelings and struggles are often overlooked, Jojo aims to express these profound reflections through animation and comics.

While 3D design and CG work align with the current professional path, the aspiration is to move beyond commercial projects and explore creative avenues where ideas can be expressed freely, without the constraints of market demands. The goal is to work in a space where the focus isn’t on profit, but on addressing deeper emotions and societal issues. Through art, the complexities of human relationships, mutual understanding, and the subtle nuances of modern life are explored, offering insight into the true nature of human connection and empathy.

In a world where commercial design often feels transactional, the vision is to create a more meaningful approach one that uses design and art as tools for reflection, emotional expression, and social commentary. By doing so, something profound is contributed to the creative world, helping to reconnect an increasingly disconnected society while encouraging reflection on relationships, understanding, and communication.
