Beyond Books: How a Philosophy Intern Discovered Growth at Kinghelm This Summer
Shenzhen’s summer pulses with relentless energy—the sun blazes off skyscraper glass, mirroring a city that never stops innovating. Amid this dynamic backdrop, I had the privilege of joining Shenzhen Kinghelm Electronics Co., Ltd. as an intern in the publicity department. Coming from a philosophy background at Hunan Normal University, the experience gave me not only a firsthand look at how a modern tech company operates but also a unique space to bridge theory with practice, sparking personal and professional growth in ways I hadn’t anticipated.

Kinghelm (www.kinghelm.net) is a high-tech enterprise recognized across the industry for its expertise in antennas and connectors. From my very first day, I was struck by the balance of rigor and vitality that defines the workplace. The office was bright and well-structured, colleagues worked with both focus and efficiency, and there was a palpable sense of passion in the air.
As an intern in the publicity department, my responsibilities included organizing documents, writing daily “Product of the Day” features, and refining website content. What initially felt like simple tasks soon became gateways to deeper understanding—helping me grasp not only Kinghelm’s products but also its corporate culture and broader role within the industry.
Document Management: My First Challenge
This experience not only sharpened my logical thinking but also showed me how my background in philosophy could translate into practical value. Summarizing technical documents required distilling the core essence from complex details—very much like philosophy’s pursuit of uncovering the fundamental meaning behind abstract ideas.At Kinghelm, document management follows a precise and rigorous system. Every file undergoes strict review and archiving procedures. Witnessing this meticulous approach firsthand helped me appreciate that the foundation of an efficient enterprise lies in countless behind-the-scenes details that ensure everything runs smoothly.
Writing the “Product Highlight” Articles: A Fun Challenge

The most challenging yet rewarding part of my internship was creating the daily “Product Highlight” articles. Each day, I selected one product from Kinghelm’s portfolio, explained its features, applications, and advantages in clear, accessible language, and then translated the article into English for a wider audience.
In the beginning, my limited background in electronics made my writing sound stiff and overly technical. Thanks to the patient guidance of Mr. Huang Dejun, manager of the publicity department, I gradually learned how to transform complex technical details into engaging, reader-friendly content. This process not only sharpened my writing skills but also sparked a genuine interest in antennas and connectors.
At Kinghelm, great emphasis is placed on the quality, clarity, and impact of publications. Every article undergoes careful review to ensure technical accuracy and alignment with the company’s brand voice. More than just sharing product knowledge, these pieces reflect the core values of Kinghelm and Slkor—integrity, perseverance, precision, and meticulous attention to detail—values that are woven into both the products and the company’s culture.
Refining Kinghelm’s Website

I also had the chance to contribute to refining Kinghelm’s website, where every section, image, and line of text required thoughtful consideration and design. This experience taught me how to view content from a user’s perspective—making navigation smoother, product displays clearer, and the overall experience more intuitive.
Kinghelm’s website, with its clean, professional, and user-friendly design, reflects the company’s core values of professionalism, innovation, and reliability. Even seemingly small adjustments—such as the placement of an icon or the choice of a font—were carefully discussed and refined.
What impressed me most was this commitment to excellence in every detail. It reminded me that whether in philosophy or in business, the drive for continuous improvement and the pursuit of excellence is a universal principle that defines true progress.
Learning from Leadership: Insights from Mr. Song Shiqiang

Kinghelm also stood out to me for its strong learning-oriented culture. General Manager Mr. Song Shiqiang frequently organizes internal training and knowledge-sharing sessions, covering everything from technology and marketing to management, law, and psychology. I was fortunate to attend lectures on marketing and branding, which not only broadened my perspective but also inspired me to think more deeply about my own future career path.
Equally impressive was the spirit of collaboration among colleagues. Everyone was eager to share their expertise and lend a helping hand. I remember struggling with a technical article—one senior colleague not only walked me through the details patiently but even suggested reference books to strengthen my understanding.
This culture of mutual learning and support made Kinghelm feel like more than a workplace. It is truly a platform for knowledge exchange, personal growth, and collective progress.
Reflections: The Lasting Impact of My Internship

Looking back, my internship at Kinghelm gave me far more than professional experience—it reshaped how I approach challenges and growth. I learned to translate abstract philosophical thinking into real-world problem-solving, to adapt quickly in an unfamiliar field, and to appreciate how teamwork and corporate culture fuel long-term success.
General Manager Mr. Song often reminded us: “In life and in business, you must move step by step—do the things others avoid, take the orders others don’t want, endure the hardships others refuse. Only then will success belong to you.” These words, paired with Kinghelm’s unwavering focus on innovation, quality, and customer value, left a lasting impression on me.
As a philosophy student, this internship was a rare opportunity to step beyond books and theories, applying my training in critical thinking and abstraction to real-world tasks. Philosophy taught me to seek the essence of ideas; Kinghelm taught me how to turn ideas into meaningful action.
I am truly grateful to Kinghelm for this transformative experience. It will remain an unforgettable chapter of my life—one that continues to inspire me to learn, explore, and grow with resilience and purpose.
