How did you come to be involved in this industry and work for ZHENGCHANG?

I worked in Liyang grain machinery factory (the predecessor of ZHENG CHANG group) in 1972, and was recommended by the company to study in Zhenjiang agricultural machinery college (now renamed Jiangsu University) in 1977. After graduation, I began to work as a basic workshop worker, and then stepped up to the post of workshop director, deputy factory director and factory director step by step from technician.

After becoming the director of the factory, I realized that with the tide of China's reform and opening up, the continuous improvement of the Chinese people's living standards will definitely require strong development support from the feed industry. Pay attention to the development of the feed industry and the research and development of feed industry products. I firmly believe that only by focusing on the industry and focusing on innovative manufacturing products can the company grow and develop.

In 1992, in order to better respond to the entire market and the rapid development of customers, we took the initiative to innovate, from a single grain machine enterprise to a rapid rise, developed into a ZHENGCHANG grain machine factory, ZHENGCHANG complete engineering company, ZHENGCHANG accessories Comprehensive companies such as factories and other economic entities.
On this higher platform, we are constantly seeking self-breakthroughs and increasing the strength of scientific research to drive the economy and develop high and new technologies. In two years, it has developed into an economic entities including four major pillar industries including feed machinery, complete sets of projects, farming and animal husbandry feed, oil and fat chemical industry, and more than 10 professionally manufactured feed industrial equipment that can provide more than 200 series and more than 300 patented products to thousands of domestic customers. ZHENGCHANG developed and manufactured high-efficiency aquatic shrimp feed and feed engineering equipment, livestock and poultry feed engineering equipment and complete premix production equipment and domestic advanced material silo production and drying equipment, which has solved the problem in depth and breadth of equipment support for the development of the feed industry.

What do you see as a possible challenge that the industry may face over the next five years and how will your company play a part in prevention or solving it?

In the future, the entire feed industry will develop in the direction of large-scale, professional, refined, and intelligent; and there are few service providers that can provide large-scale professional projects, and at the same time solve the lack of products for the automation and intelligent management platform of the entire large-scale project , Resulting in high operating costs of the entire feed factory and weak market competitiveness, all of which have become bottlenecks and challenges for the development of the entire industry;
Faced with such challenges, we always insist on customer-oriented, actively carry out research on cutting-edge technologies and products, and always make our technology and products lead the industry for 5~10 years. We have developed a series of large-scale high-end intelligent equipment and advanced Production technology, these leading equipment and processes have been applied in many large feed mills, which has solved many development pain points and helped customers achieve extraordinary results;
