Confucianism in the Chinese economy.

The founder of Xiaohongshu, a thriving internet company with around 300 million of users,
created an initiative called signature program, in which each employee can choose an avatar
character, and this signature program plays an important role in fostering a collaborative
environment at xiaohongshu.

Also, this company has be ranked as one of the most innovative Chinese companies by

something related to Confucian thoughts, in Chinese they called it “Benfen” which refers to
integrity.
