Everything Is Flowing Life | Oasis Capital Is Hiring

Counselor Vitality

Everything has structure. Our expression of that structure is what we call a "model."

Over the past few centuries, human understanding of "models" has continually evolved — broadly divided into the Old Three Theories and the New Three Theories. The Old Three Theories are systems theory, cybernetics, and information theory. The New Three Theories are dissipative structure theory, catastrophe theory, and synergetics. The former views a system as a closed structure, attempting to define the whole through inputs and outputs, then define individuals through functions, and finally describe the relationship between individuals and the whole. It is precise. It is clear. The latter sees a system as an open structure, where individuals form a whole through synergy, and this whole exhibits new will and characteristics, evolving and even mutating as new individuals join. It is dynamic. It is fuzzy.

The system described by the Old Three Theories is more like a precision machine, a tight organization — the foundation of the industrial age, the product of specialized division of labor. The system described by the New Three Theories is more like an open life form, a collaborative organization — the foundation of the information age, the product of co-evolution.

Is everything a machine or a life form?

In fact, most of our troubles come from viewing the world through the lens of the Old Three Theories: relationships, venture capital, careers. All of them.

If a relationship is a precision machine, then there are inputs and outputs, expectations and feedback. Suddenly one day the feedback doesn't match the expectation — a friend can't make it, a promised thing doesn't materialize — and the machine is broken. Then you fall into the pain of fixing it or abandoning it.

If venture capital is a precision machine, then there are goals and results, inputs and outputs. Suddenly one day the structure doesn't align with the goal — growth slows this month, or the team bleeds out. Then you fall into the agony of whether to bridge or quit.

But they are all life forms.

If it is a life form, it has birth, aging, sickness, and death; formation, existence, decay, and emptiness. You wouldn't hesitate to abandon a child because they are sick, nor would you quietly distance yourself because they encounter problems. On the contrary, you might even hope they experience more setbacks, more pressure — for then they may mature earlier, become more vital.

Relationships, venture capital — if you see them as dynamic, changing, cyclical life forms, you will have far less anguish and inner conflict. Instead, you will bring enormous patience to grow, collaborate, and explore together.

All things are thus. So is Oasis.

We look forward to growing, collaborating, and exploring with new individuals. We believe this universe has a will, and that will blossoms its own flowers in different eras.

We look forward to Oasis, as a living whole, exploring this will and discovering the seeds of the era.

Wherever we go, spring blooms.

Welcome to Oasis.

"I was fortunate to choose Oasis and be chosen by it. The learning curve here is incredibly steep — I constantly encounter knowledge that feels like a revelation. Day-to-day work demands strong self-drive and solid research fundamentals; you must also maintain keen awareness, sharing observations of daily life in our sensory-sharing sessions. I'm astonished by senior colleagues' acuity in perceiving things and grasping the tides of the era, which pushes me to think independently and stay observant. But 'judgment can be intentionally trained — build your own闭环 (closed loop), don't mark the boat to find the sword, and leave the rest to time.' Finally, Oasis's values: kindness, joy, vitality. Jinjian says, 'We are here to find the Edison of this era.' I hope to grow alongside young Oasis!"

Beyond cultivating solid fundamental research skills, I also learned unique investment philosophies from outstanding senior colleagues, developing my own commercial cognition. Additionally, the company organizes weekly exchange sessions to share observations from daily life. Oh, and Oasis is also a company that really loves planting trees — I hope every newcomer here will love life and celebrate vitality."
