At the end of 1978, when the country was threatened by external threats and the Sino Vietnamese self-defense counterattack was about to occur, he resolutely enlisted and began a period of military service that had an impact on his life. In the forefront of the counterattack against Vietnam, he developed a rigorous, capable, agile, and resolute style at the guard's post; In his position at the car repair shop, he tirelessly studied and learned the excellent skills of repairing car engines, obtaining the enviable "Driver's License" and "Technician's License" issued by the Military Commission. He wielded his youth and blood to the fullest, tempered his loyalty and courage, honed his resilience and wisdom... Five years of great melting pot, and a hundred years of steel refining in his life!
Abandoning attending military academy, he retired and returned to his hometown before departing.
In 1987, he resolutely smashed his "iron rice bowl" of working from nine to five and went into business amidst suspicion and confusion from others. He started from scratch, from car transportation to managing building materials. The wisdom of a young man, the refinement of the military, and the need for openness and integrity even if one suffers losses, have earned him respect and trust, business opportunities, and rewards.
In 1998, by chance, he chose a different kind of life. From then on, as an industrialist, he moved forward and his life also integrated with ceramics. At the beginning, he rented and operated Jianhong Ceramic Factory with two kilns, which were technologically outdated and had low production capacity. He made a decisive move to attract technical talents and management teams with Nanjing Red Army as the core and lead Jianhong Ceramics Factory out of the predicament, which was on the verge of bankruptcy, with trust and sincerity, mind and sharing. In just three months, orders continued to rise, and Jianhong Factory grew from small to large. Subsequently, he took advantage of the situation. In 1999, his wholly-owned Sunrise Ceramic Factory emerged. He shares the same breath and fate with the team members and all employees at the core of the Ning Red Army, and continues to climb the path of entrepreneurship. To this day, many executives and employees who fought together back then still closely follow and never give up.
