On November 28, 2022, the “Return to Home” event—part of the series of celebrations marking the 30th anniversary of Yuegong’s founding—was held at the Group’s new headquarters. With the theme “Only by remembering our journey can we know where to go,” the event invited former senior leaders and retired employees to revisit Yuegong on the occasion of its 30th anniversary, to reflect on their past experiences, share their heartfelt sentiments for the company, and look ahead to a new chapter. The participating veterans and retirees primarily came from the former He Wanxiang Wok Factory, Internal Combustion Engine Factory, Agricultural Machinery Factory, General Machinery Factory, Bicycle Factory, as well as Haiermans, including Shang Zuotian, Ma Jiageng, Dan Shunde, Wang Qiunong, Li Baoquan, Shen Guoren, Jiang Lijuan, and Wang Lifu. Those unable to attend due to health reasons, such as Ruan Peibin and Zhu Youcai, sent written recollections of their time at Yuegong, conveying their warm wishes for the company. Chen Bailiang, Chairman of the Group’s Board of Directors, along with Group executives Ren Qiliang, Luo Yinchang, Jin Fei, Hua Yuwu, and others, extended a warm welcome to the distinguished guests.

This event comprises two main components: first, a symposium titled “Recalling the Past, Discussing Development, Reflecting on Changes, and Offering Valuable Suggestions”; second, a reunion dinner bringing together former leaders and long-serving employees to celebrate together.

The symposium commenced with welcoming remarks by Chen Bailiang, Chairman of the Group’s Board of Directors, who also provided a brief overview of the company. After reviewing Yuegong’s 30-year journey and its major achievements, Chairman Chen emphasized that the company’s future path must prioritize green and quality‑driven development, embracing innovation and transformation to achieve upgrading. He underscored the need to build Yuegong into a “happy enterprise,” with particular focus on strengthening its humanistic ethos—empowering employees to learn, grow, realize their potential, and work with joy. Furthermore, he called for sharpening core competencies, pursuing specialization, and reinforcing the company’s principal business to become an industry “little giant.” Expressing his deepest gratitude and highest respect, Chairman Chen extended heartfelt thanks to the veteran leaders and long-serving employees in attendance, as well as to all Yuegong colleagues who have dedicated themselves to the company’s growth and development. He noted that over three decades of steadfast progress would not have been possible without the quiet dedication and tireless efforts of generation after generation of Yuegong employees.

Subsequently, veteran leaders and long-serving employees reminisced about Yuangong’s century-long history and offered their best wishes for its future. Tracing the origins of Yuangong, one finds its roots in the He Wanxiang Cauldron Factory, established in 1901, which over time evolved into an internal‑combustion engine plant, an agricultural machinery factory, a general‑purpose machinery plant, a bicycle factory, and finally, Hermanns. By the time Yuangong was founded in 1992, it had already carried forward more than ninety years of heritage—now stretching well beyond a century. As one might say: “Yuangong’s lineage is firmly planted in 1901, yet its most remarkable chapter began in 1992.” “Only by remembering where we’ve come from can we know where to go.” On this joyous occasion marking Yuangong’s 30th anniversary, all gathered together to discuss the company’s future—both reflecting on its illustrious past and looking ahead with hope and anticipation. At the event, senior leaders and longtime employees unanimously expressed their delight and congratulations on Yuangong’s achievements, jointly wishing the enterprise continued success and prosperity.

At the conclusion of the symposium, Group President Ren Qiliang expressed his care, gratitude, and best wishes to the company’s veteran leaders and long-serving employees, sincerely wishing them a life filled with happiness, fulfillment, and good health. On behalf of the Group, President Ren pledged to carry forward the century-old traditions, live up to the support and expectations of our senior leaders and colleagues, and, with renewed vigor, set sail for the next 30 years of Yuegong’s continued success. The event concluded successfully with a group photo and the rallying cry: “Yuegong—Even More Brilliant!”

In 2022, Yuegong turned 30. Standing at the starting point of a new era and a new journey, Yuegong will remain true to its original aspiration, forge ahead with determination, and uphold the noble legacy of a century-old enterprise. It will vigorously promote the corporate spirit of “pursuing perfection, striving for excellence, acting with integrity and pragmatism, and embracing exploration and innovation,” wholeheartedly committing itself to its mission, shouldering responsibility with resolve, continuously creating value for customers, forging bright prospects for employees, and contributing to the beauty of our city—steadfastly pursuing perfection as it pursues the vision of a “Quality‑Driven Yuegong, a Happy Yuegong.”
