全球神墨同仁及关心支持神墨发展的各界人士：
Dear Shenmo colleagues and friends who concern and support Shenmo:
大家好！
Greetings to you all!
辞旧迎新，首先感谢社会各界友人对神墨的支持与帮助，感谢每一位神墨同仁过去一年的默默付出与不懈努力！
On this occasion of welcoming the new year, first of all, I would like to thank our friends from all walks of life for their support and assistance to Shenmo, and every one of our colleagues for their silent and unremitting efforts in the past year.
疾风知劲草，烈火见真金。回望2021，世纪疫情交织百年变局，国内“双减”政策发布实施，在复杂多变的外部环境中，神墨人专注成长，守正创新，迎难而上，依然在各个方面取得了来之不易的丰硕成果。
Sturdy grass withstands high winds; true gold stands the test of fire. The year 2021 witnessed the combined forces of changes and a pandemic unseen in a century. Chinese authorities have introduced a guideline to ease the burdens of excessive homework and off-campus tutoring for students undergoing compulsory education. In the complex and ever-changing external environment, Shenmo people faced difficulties by focusing on continuous growth and making innovations based on tradition and has achieved fruitful and hard-won results in all aspects.
过去一年，神墨人和合国策，积极响应国家双减政策，坚持走规范办学和品质化发展之路，神墨党建等各项工作迈上新台阶。神墨与民进中央共同推进的“彩虹桥”公益金额累计投入超过400万元，神墨人继续以助人之心勇担社会责任。
In 2021, Shenmo actively responded to the national policy in tutoring sector and insisted on standardized schooling and high-quality development. The party building of Shenmo also reached a new level. We have realized a public welfare fund of RMB four million yuan in the “Rainbow Bridge” project jointly promoted by Shenmo and the Central Committee of the China Association for Promoting Democracy (CAPD) to answer our social responsibility.
过去一年，神墨人乘风破浪，正式迈入3.0时代，我们确定了新时代战略定位——“健康·长久·发展”。当下的神墨，犹如一个24岁的青年，身心健康，朝气蓬勃，志向高远。未来的神墨，将昂首向前，在健康成长中创造新的无限可能。
In last year’s strong wind and high tides, Shenmo entered a new era of 3.0 and determined a new strategic positioning of “health, long-lasting, and development”. Today, Shenmo is a 24-year-old youth, healthy in body and mind, vigorous and ambitious in spirit. Tomorrow, this youth will stride ahead proudly and create infinite possibilities.
过去一年，神墨人更加坚定教育初心，各课程研究院专注教材与课程升级，以各种方式引领海内外神墨教师加强师德与专业素养提升。用心用情用爱育人，为学员提供卓越心智教育课程，为家长提供优质暖心服务，是神墨人永不停息的本色追求。
In 2021, Shenmo made an even more determined effort to hold fast to the initial aspiration of educators. All Shenmo course R&D institutes concentrated on upgrading teaching materials and course quality and improving professional ethics of Shenmo teachers at home and abroad through various ways. At Shenmo, we make it our unremitting pursuit to educate people with heart, enthusiasm, and love, to provide students with excellent mental education courses, and to provide parents with high-quality and heart-warming services.
过去一年，响应“一带一路”国家倡议，神墨国际化发展继续发力，海外授权合作新增七个国家。我们与民进中央、教育部留学生服务中心、华侨大学、世界珠算心算联合会等部门建立了更广泛的合作。3.0时代，承载珠算文化海外传播责任使命，神墨国际化发展不断迈入新阶段。
In 2021, in response to the “One Belt, One Road” initiative, Shenmo continued to promote its international development and reached cooperation with seven new countries. Moreover, we have established more extensive cooperation with the Central Committee of CAPD, the Chinese Service Center for Scholarly Exchange, Huaqiao University, and the World Association of Abacus and Mental Arithmetic. In the 3.0 era, we have taken up the mission of spreading abacus culture overseas and brought our international development into a new stage.
过去一年，神墨“三圆”智慧课程推出，神墨“三圆”智慧中心正式成立。追求“事业、生活、自我”三方面和谐发展，“三圆”课程既是当下神墨人最重要的内部学习，也是神墨面向社会推出成人课程的开始，具有重要的里程碑意义。
In 2021, Shenmo “Three-Part Harmony” Wisdom Center was officially established to launch the “Three-Part Harmony” course to lead Shenmo people to pursue the harmonious development of “career, family and self-growth”. This course is not only the most important internal learning content for Shenmo people for now, but also an important milestone marking the beginning of Shenmo adult course.
艰难方显勇毅，磨砺始得玉成。共同走过2021，神墨人的事业发展酝酿新机，神墨人的成长蜕变更趋深层。以12年为一个发展阶段，神墨正迈入第三个12年，回望过去24年发展历程，百年神墨发展规律无比清晰。未来12年，神墨人将继续坚定“成长主义”与“长期主义”，坚持“健康·长久·发展”战略定位，聚焦成己育人，践行助人进步。以“三圆”学习滋养根脉，以和合国策助长主干，神墨长青之树将不断生枝散叶，开花结果。
Only in hard times can courage and perseverance be manifested. After 2021, new opportunities for Shenmo business development have emerged, and Shenmo people have met the deeper self in growth. With 12 years as a development period, Shenmo will enter its third development period. Over the past 24 years, Shenmo’s development pattern has been quite clear. In the next 12 years, Shenmo will continue to firmly adhere to the growth-focused concept, the long-termism, and the strategic positioning of “health, long-lasting, and development”. We will stick to the concept of “achieving self-success and cultivating others” and “helping people progress”. With the “Three-Part Harmony” course nourishing our foundation and the positive response to national policy promoting our primary business, the evergreen tree of Shenmo will continue to grow and blossom.
2022年，是神墨发展史中又一承前启后的重要之年，我们将迎来神墨的24岁生日。
As a link between past and future, the year 2022 is another important year in the history of Shenmo’s development. This year, we will celebrate the 24th birthday of Shenmo.
新的一年，我们将继续保持底线思维，以安定成长之心应对未知与挑战；新的一年，我们将继续和合国策，规范发展，全力推进品质化升级；新的一年，我们将继续整合资源，加快国际化发展步伐，更好弘扬中华文化；新的一年，我们将继续大力推进“三圆”课程学习，推动“太阳计划”和“生命成功计划”全面开展，引领神墨人迈入新的成长阶段。
In 2022, we will continue to maintain the bottom-line thinking mode and respond to the unknown and challenges with a stable and growing heart. In 2022, we will continue to respond to national policies, regulate development, and promote quality upgrading. In 2022, we will continue to integrate resources, accelerate the pace of international development, and promote Chinese culture overseas. In 2022, we will continue to vigorously promote the learning of “Three-Part Harmony” course, promote the “Sun Plan” and “Life Success Plan”, and lead Shenmo people into a new stage of growth.
风物长宜放眼量，不畏浮云遮望眼。新的一年，无论面临怎样的挑战，愿我们心中有定力，胸中有远方，眼里有光芒。祝愿大家2022年新年吉祥！
Dust will settle as we go along. In the new year, no matter what challenges we will face, may we have determination in our heart, dreams in our mind, and light in our eyes. I wish you all a prosperous New Year in 2022!
谢谢大家！
Thank you!
