From a small point of view, for a company, whether there is a craftsman spirit determines how far the company can go and how capable it is. How high it is. For a person, like all the masters present here, it is the same. Only with the spirit of craftsman can you reach the highest peak of this industry." Sun Jian, general manager of Changyu Co., Ltd., said that Changyu can step by step to where it is today. The location is also the craftsman spirit at play.

"In the nearly 130 years of Changyu's development, we have experienced high-light moments and some downturns. Without a century-old ingenuity, we can't hold our job well."
