  "Being a business is a marathon without an end. If a company wants to be a good brand, it needs day after day, year after year diligence, summary, ingenuity and originality, and cultivate the power of Chinese brands." China Overseas Chinese Merchants United Shi Ganping, chairman of the board of supervisors and chairman of Jinhengfeng Technology Group, said in an exclusive interview with a reporter from China News Agency recently.

  In 1999, 26-year-old Shi Ganping founded Jinhengfeng Technology Co., Ltd. in Beijing, dedicated to the R&D, manufacturing and sales of industrial printers.

After more than 20 years of development, the company has become a global leader in industrial equipment printing. Domestic equipment such as industrial UV printers and digital textile printing machines have been sold to the world and recognized by the world.

  In the 1990s, due to the lack of corresponding technical support, China's high-end printer market was dominated by imports, and Chinese brands were mainly concentrated in the low-end market.

How to stand out from the competition in the international market and secure a place?

Shi Ganping had an idea in his mind: to be the best industrial printer in the world.

To this day, this has been his tireless pursuit.

  "The development potential of the Chinese market is huge. With the continuous optimization and upgrading of the industrial structure, there is no reason not to be made in China on par with the world's top brands." After capturing the possibilities in the industry prospects, Shi Ganping firmly believes that no one can follow suit. Casual success, greatness takes time to come out, and the same is true for Chinese brands.

  Shi Ganping told reporters that the 2008 financial crisis was an important turning point.

"At that time, many large companies were hit hard and went bankrupt, and many people could hardly resist the wave of large-scale layoffs." So Shi Ganping recruited technical backbone and management experts and established a research and development team.

  "We must use the best accessories to work together to build an enthusiast-level industrial printer." Shi Qianping introduced that in 2010, China's first 5-meter wide UV digital printing equipment was successfully developed, but new problems followed one after another.

"Customers at that time did not have confidence in Chinese local brands. When faced with high-end printers with similar prices and quality, international brands were still their first choice."

Recently, Shi Ganping, chairman of Demai International Industry Group, accepted an exclusive interview with the "Qiaoshangdao" column in Beijing.

In 1999, Shi Ganping, a returnee from the United States, founded Jinhengfeng Technology Group Co., Ltd., which was the earliest high-tech enterprise engaged in industrial printers in China.

  Scientific research requires a large amount of funding, product sales have not improved, and many doubts have appeared... Shi Ganping began to think about how to actively seek changes and find breakthroughs.

"When the ideal fullness is broken by reality, companies need to maintain their own determination, especially in the technological innovation industry, they need to have the attitude of a'lunatic' and the spirit of a'fool' in order to be firm and unwavering."

  In order to break the development bottleneck, in August 2013, Shi Ganping invited more than 200 domestic experts and scholars in the printing industry and major corporate customers to hold the first high-end forum on the printing industry in China-"Taishan on the Road" to discuss the industry. future development.

"This forum allowed me to receive orders for 6 devices, but its value is far greater than a breakthrough in sales, because I see the hope of opening up the domestic market and the possibility of breaking consumers' stereotypes of Chinese brands."

  "Commodity quality and service are the core competitiveness of an enterprise." Shi Ganping's business philosophy is to use all products and services to help customers grow.

"In addition to selling equipment, we will provide customers with professional guidance as a strategic partner, optimize operation and management, and seek development with a'symbiosis' thinking."

  Nowadays, the printers produced by Shi Ganping's enterprise are widely used in advertising, textile, industry and other fields, which proves the value and irreplaceability of Chinese brands. The dream of "printing tomorrow, printing the world" is constantly being refreshed.

  Shi Ganping believes that with a view to the new development pattern, Chinese brands are bound to do a lot.

"As domestic products are highly sought after, more and more Chinese brands have sprung up like bamboo shoots after rain. They focus on quality development, focus on brand image and competitiveness, and are committed to satisfying people's pursuit of a better life, and will surely succeed in entering the global market. , To become an industry leader."
