1994-1999 Dream of solareast
In 1994, at Dongxing farm in LianYungang city, Xu Xinjian, who was working in a state-owned unit, sighed that he could no longer sit in his office and just wanted to do something.” Regardless of the relatives and friends of persuasion and opposition, he decided to give up the original stable job, set up a team to start the electrical appliance installation. By chance, when he was a guest at a friend's house, he was accidentally scalded by hot water from a solar water heater, which started his new career of green source.
In 1999,
with a loan of 200,000 RMB and a manual workshop of a few dozen employees only,
Xu started his new journey in the solar thermal industry.When
talking about the choice of this venture, there is a poetic description. Under
the influence of three forces of farm, soldiers and educated youth, a green
seed was planted in the heart of a little boy in Dongxin farm. A few decades
later, the seed germinated and finally created another miracle of green new
energy in east of China, this little boy is exactly the chairman of solareast,
Xu xinjian.
1999-2006 Green enterprise with eight years of evolution
In the late 90s, solareast absorbed a lot of farm labor, providing a large number of jobs. Under the leadership of chairman Xu, with the spirit of not being afraid of hardships, devoted to a "green" business that everyone could not see the future at that time.
During
the 8 years of the entrepreneurial stage, he led the company to adhere to
innovation and brand management, focusing on solar thermal utilization, taking
technology as the first, and successively combining with the most cutting-edge
experts in the industry. Under the guidance of the Nobel Prize winner Professor
Yang Zhenning, Professor Zhao Kui created China's three-target coating
technology. Solareast's core component-vacuum tube uses three-target coating
technology. At the same time, Dr. Harding, the "father of the world's
coating", was hired as the chief scientific consultant to successfully
develop the Antarctic tube technology and the thermal insulation wall patent
technology to realize the dream of solar products "easy to use in winter
and rainy days".2007-2012
Brand jump, leading the industry
In 2003,
the industry association led well-known domestic enterprises to investigate the
market in Europe and saw high-end products abroad. Many entrepreneurs believed that
Chinese solar water heaters cannot be exported. But opportunities are always
favored by those who are prepared. Xu Xinjian felt that the opportunity is
coming. Once he returned to China, he set up an international business
department at the headquarters in Shanghai. In the second year, the enterprise
achieved US $ 5 million international market sales, and his advanced
international thinking made Solareast take the first step abroad. Today, Solareast
products are exported to more than 100 countries and regions around the world
and it has maintained the top1 exporter in the industry for many consecutive
years (since 2005).In
2010, the National Postdoctoral Management Committee approved the establishment
of the first national "postdoctoral research station" in the solar
thermal field by solareast. In 2011, the company's technology
center was jointly identified, becoming the industry's first "National
Certified Enterprise Technology Center." Until now, Solareast's R & D
and testing capabilities are still industry leaders. The Group's testing center
has obtained the national CNAS accredited testing laboratory. It has more than
500 sets of large and medium-sized experimental equipment, including China's
only solar simulation system laboratory and China's only SWT solar energy
detection platform, which has achieved technological leadership.
2013-2020 multiple upgrades, innovative
development
Since 2013, Solareast has entered a stage of diversified innovation development. In 2017, Xu proposed new development strategy. One is a diversified business based on channel demand and consumption upgrade, and the other is a thermal energy business with clean thermal energy as its core business.
Focuse on
the main line of household appliance consumption upgrades, gradually forming
the main business of solar energy, air energy, water purification, kitchen
appliances, etc., to provide users with personalized, integrated and
intelligent solutions. Under the strategic guidance, it has
established a global industrial layout and has five domestic industrial bases.
In early
2017, Solareast Group and sacon, a leading brand of kitchen appliances and water heating system, reached strategic cooperation. SACON continues to make changes on
the basis of its original advantages, and continues to show its brand image
with a younger and technologically new brand. With the leading intelligent
manufacturing process, global industrial design, and excellent product quality,
the vertical upgrade of products, brands, channels, and supply chains has been
realized, thereby further releasing the strategic synergy after the integration
of SACON and Solareast Group.Vertical
innovation and development, centering on the theme of green development of
clean energy, through independent innovation and and acquisitions and
cooperation of domestic and international mergers, provide customers with hot
water, heating and cooling system solutions.
In 2020,
Xu led the company to start a new governance paradigm of "towards
high-quality development". With the innovative management concept of
"open and win-win", we will cultivate and build three major brands
for the market, manufacturing and service, build the core capabilities of the
company's structure, and continue healthy and sustainable development.2021-… The future is expected
When Xu
worked that year, he once stated: "The solar energy industry is an
industry that we can fight for a lifetime, and it is an industry that will
benefit future generations. We are extremely proud to join this industry!" Over the
past 20 years, Xu Xinjian has never forgotten this statement. He took the
peasant's hard work and courage, the soldier's bravery and decisiveness, and
the educated youth's enthusiasm and wisdom to walk on the road of green
development.
At the
Group's 20th Anniversary Meeting in early 2020, when he mentioned it again, he
said, "Looking forward to the new 20 years, we must have a common purpose
of perseverance and care. Consensus and practice, our goal is to become a
respected enterprise."
In the
future, he and the company will continue to uphold the core values of
"integrity, responsibility, gratitude, openness, and win-win", stand
in a global perspective, integrate advanced resources, and are committed to
clean thermal energy Innovate and achieve the mission of the company.Clean world and a better life is our original
intention. The future is expected.
