在科技发展的今天，商业以逆袭之势席卷潮流，企业家风起云涌，无数商业大佬站在时代的肩膀上！未来多元化社会，需要具备综合商业素养的人才。
国外商学院炙手可热，国内商业教育尚处空白，选择一个专业商业实践活动平台，提前试水商科，在进入大学前增加知识储备。
当小伙伴们还沉浸在寒假的快乐气氛中时，无锡外国语学校国际课程中高中部一行6位同学在老师的带领下就整装前往香港参加了为期5天的金融实习活动。6位同学被分成两组分别进入富通保险公司和美国友邦保险有限公司两家世界500强企业轮岗研习。
1. 商界大佬如何起步？
“千里之行始于足下”，在成为商界大佬之前，商界小白们需要掌握基本的财务知识。
第一天，同学们在听完公司的相关介绍后就在导师的指导下查阅相关资料。
在午饭后的“you show what you know”环节，同学们要以presentation（演讲）的方式将自己搜集到的信息与大家共享。有的小组分享了保险的基本知识，包括保险的类型等，有的小组分享公司的产品、服务，以及各部门的职责等。
通过这样的实践过程，同学们表示，自己关于怎样整合数据和利用搜集到的信息支持自己的观点的疑惑在这个过程中得到了解答。
2. 如何分析基金
经过第一天对于保险有了一个宏观的了解与认识之后，同学们开始进入到具体的对6个不同基金的分析中。
同学们需要运用到PMI指数（采购经理指数）来预测各个基金的发展趋势，以及公司将来的发展和投资方向。为了作出满意的分析，同学们都工作到凌晨两三点，有的同学感慨自己终于认识到了工作的艰辛之处，对于金融行业也有了更加准确直观的了解与认识。
在进行presentation的时候，同学们面对导师尖锐的评论与提问，也是非常紧张，但仍旧镇定地予以回答。在问答的过程中，同学们也表示认识到了自己的缺陷，并且向其他组学习到了经验。
3. 王先生的投资方案
最后一个环节就是根据所学的理论知识，为王先生提供一套合适的投资方案。为了制定出一套让客户满意的方案，同学们也是殚精竭虑。在吃饭时也不忘与导师进行讨论，以便得到导师的建议与指导。
为期五天的金融实习圆满落下了帷幕，同学们在这期间收获颇丰，不仅可以学习到与国际接轨的商业金融理论知识及素养课程，更进入世界500强企业实地体验，融入最前沿的商业氛围，零距离鉴习商界尖端高管们的非凡运营理念。
在5天的实训时间里，孩子们跟随导师努力学习，根据每天布置的课题，小组合作研究课题，出色完成了自己的实训展示，得到导师们的一致认可，获得世界500强企业的实习证明和企业推荐信，斩获开启未来大门的金钥匙。
4. 他山之石
当同学们投入到商业实习中难以自拔的时候，带队的黄老师走访了香港多所大学，与学校的招生官见面，了解各所大学的招生要求与申请流程，以便同学们将来进入到这几所大学就读。
此外，黄老师还与就业指导中心相关负责人进行交谈，邀请毕业生进入无锡外国语学校国际课程中心工作，为国际教育注入新鲜血液。

The department we were experiencing today was the investment fund department. First, Teacher gave us today's mission: To take two different high- risk fund, medium-risk fund and low risk fund, to do data analysis in the past two years, and to analyze the reason of their ups and downs as well as their prospects, including understanding the background of the company and the scope of the investment.
So, our team was divided again, and I was responsible for investigating a high-risk fund and a medium-risk fund. I first searched for the summary table on relevant websites, picking out a high-risk funds F160 and a medium-risk fund F172. Through their changes in the last two years, I drew the relevant conclusions. At last, I got to understand the company's development and investment direction and tried to infer its development prospects.
Through today's internship, I learned a lot about the fund. I know how to go to a fund for analysis, how to judge whether it runs a high risk or low risk, and according to different fund company, to determine the cause of the rise and fall, then to make a forecast. I didn't know anything about this, but through my internship today, I am no longer unfamiliar with the fund. Instead, I know how to analyze the fund. I think I am more and more interested in finance. The opportunity of this internship is very rare and meaningful. I am very happy to learn a lot of new knowledge every day.

Today is my last day as an intern at Fortis insurance company. It's half a day. After arriving at the company in the afternoon, I first Shared the experience with the leader of the other group. We have one thing in common that we feel homesick in Hong Kong since the second day because of the pressure of work and mental exhaustion. After that, we, all the members, got to share our feelings with each other. What impressed me most was a girl in our group, who said that she was very grateful to me for being the group leader, which made me touched and even brought a lump in my throat. I was laughing but my eyes were wet. I never thought anyone would remember a little bit of what I did. When it came to the awards, it was our team that received the honor of the best team. We lived up to our hope the night before. To be honest, this internship experience has left me exhausted, but I think it's more about learning and growing.
