Shenli Rigging Visits and Extends Warm Regards to Retired Veterans, Celebrating Company Achievements Together
2026.09.25
As autumn deepens, the full moon brings warmth to the heart. With the Mid-Autumn Festival approaching, and in the spirit of honoring elders and cherishing the contributions of those who came before, a delegation from Shenli Rigging—led by Yu Tonglei (Board Secretary and Office Director) and Liu Qingfeng (Labor Union Chairman)—visited retired veteran cadres and Party members. They conveyed festive greetings and gifts, while sincerely inviting the veterans to return "home" often to witness the company's latest developments.
Du Daping (Chairman and General Manager) and Du Yazhong (Party Secretary) have always held the retired veterans close to their hearts. They personally arranged these visits, instructing the labor union and relevant departments to carry out the task with genuine care and a strong sense of responsibility, ensuring that the organization's concern and the warmth of the holiday reached every veteran.
Over the past few days, the delegation visited the homes of these veteran cadres and Party members, engaging in heartfelt conversations and inquiring about their daily lives and health. During these talks, the veterans reminisced about the early days of the company's founding—recalling unexpected twists and turns in business partnerships and cherishing memories of growing alongside the company.
The group also watched *Youth in the Furnace Glow* (Lu Huo Qing Chun), an AI-generated short drama based on the true story of Shandong Shenli Rigging Co., Ltd.’s founding. The familiar scenes and vivid imagery stirred deep emotions among the veterans. The drama recreated the passionate era when Party Secretary Du Yazhong and his wife, Yang Xiuyan, led the first generation of Shenli employees in building the business from scratch through sheer hard work—depicting their steadfast dedication amidst the furnace glow, their perseverance in the face of adversity, and the touching bond of a couple supporting each other while striving toward a shared goal. These scenes deeply moved everyone present.
The visiting team briefed the veteran colleagues on the company's recent achievements: the company was successfully selected as a national-level demonstration unit for building an intellectual property powerhouse and was recognized as a provincial-level "Green Manufacturing Unit" and a Jining City "Green Factory" (2026), in addition to receiving honors such as "Outstanding Unit for New Quality Productive Force Innovation."
The intelligent manufacturing industrial park, built with an investment of 1.2 billion yuan, is now fully operational; leveraging MES production management systems and digital twin technology, the company has significantly boosted production efficiency in core processes and maintained a product pass rate of 99.8%. From hand-drawn blueprints to digital workshops, and from traditional manufacturing to intelligent production lines, every leap forward taken by the company has brought great gratification to these veteran colleagues.
Chairman Du Daping emphasized that the company's achievements would not have been possible without the solid foundation laid by these veterans in the past. He stressed the importance of transforming the older generation's spirit of struggle into a driving force for the company's high-quality development. At the same time, he pledged to provide attentive and heartfelt support services for retirees, ensuring they share in the company's success and enjoy a happy, fulfilling retirement.
The veterans were deeply gratified to hear this and praised the company's progress. One veteran Party member remarked with emotion, "The company has never forgotten us; this bond truly warms the heart. As long as my health permits, I will certainly come back 'home' to visit!"
A bright moon reflects the journey of hard work, while warmth connects the people of Shenli. For years, Shenli Rigging has prioritized the care of its retired employees, extending warmth through initiatives such as holiday visits, assistance for those in need, and invitations to participate in Party-building activities. This Mid-Autumn Festival visit serves not only as a tribute to the veterans but also as a powerful way to pass on the company's spirit. As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, Shenli Rigging sincerely wishes all retired colleagues good health, family harmony, and lasting happiness.

2026.09.24
To actively fulfill social responsibilities, promote the spirit of volunteerism—characterized by dedication, friendship, mutual aid, and progress—and demonstrate the sense of responsibility and compassion inherent in private enterprises, Shenli Rigging’s Party, administrative, labor union, and youth league organizations jointly launched the "Shenli Takes Responsibility: Sustaining Life with Love" voluntary blood donation campaign on September 18. The company mobilized all staff to participate enthusiastically, using their blood to spread positive social energy and demonstrating corporate responsibility through concrete action.
Blood is a vital link in safeguarding life, and voluntary blood donation is a reliable public service initiative that ensures the availability of blood for clinical use and the saving of lives. To ensure the event ran smoothly, the company made meticulous preparations: issuing a call to action to all employees; disseminating information on donation basics, precautions, and local preferential policies for blood recipients; and opening an online pre-registration channel. These efforts mobilized employees to engage in public service, fostering a corporate culture of selfless dedication and kindness. Additionally, to honor every act of courage and goodwill, the company provided a carton of milk to every employee who successfully donated blood.
On the day of the event, the atmosphere was orderly and filled with warmth. Under the professional guidance of medical staff, donors followed strict protocols, completing steps such as registration, physical screening, blood testing, and the actual donation. Full of enthusiasm and a sense of responsibility, participants willingly stepped forward to donate, gathering their individual contributions into a life-sustaining stream and spreading profound love through their selfless acts.
The event achieved remarkable results, with a total donation volume of 12,400 ml, effectively replenishing local clinical blood supplies and supporting public welfare. Many employees who signed up but were unable to donate due to physical constraints still demonstrated the true spirit of Shenli employees—a genuine desire to do good and a willingness to contribute. Participants expressed that voluntary blood donation is a noble act that safeguards life, and they pledged to continue engaging in various public service activities, contributing to society while excelling in their professional roles. Following the event, the company’s Youth League Committee publicly commended the outstanding individuals who donated blood, establishing them as role models for public service and encouraging all employees to emulate their example and embrace virtuous conduct.
While steadfastly focusing on its core business and maintaining steady operations, Shenli Rigging has consistently remained mindful of its social responsibilities and actively engaged in charitable endeavors. This event vividly demonstrated the boundless compassion of the workforce and highlighted the company’s proactive commitment to social responsibility and giving back to the community. Moving forward, the company plans to institutionalize its volunteer and charitable activities, continuously spreading positive energy and enhancing its public service brand, thereby leveraging concrete action and dedication to empower both social welfare initiatives and the company’s own high-quality development.

Shandong Provincial Intellectual Property Development Center Visits Shenli Rigging for Research and Inspection
2026.08.08
To focus on the high-quality development of the deep-sea and aerospace industry chain and to deeply explore the full-spectrum intellectual property (IP) needs of enterprises, a four-person delegation led by Liu Hui, a Level II Inspector at the Shandong Provincial Intellectual Property Development Center, visited Shandong Shenli Rigging Co., Ltd. on the afternoon of August 6 for a specialized research symposium. The team aimed to precisely diagnose pain points in the company's development—such as high-value patent cultivation, the commercialization of research findings, and overseas IP strategy—and to leverage high-quality public IP services to help the "chain-leading" enterprise achieve innovative breakthroughs.
Accompanying the delegation throughout the visit were Zhong Chongbin, Deputy Director and Level III Researcher at the Jining Municipal Intellectual Property Development Center; Liu Hao, Chief Economist of the Industrial Park Management Committee; and Zhang Wen, Director of the Market Supervision and Administration Office under the District Bureau of Development Environment Support.
Accompanied by Du Daping, Chairman and General Manager of Shenli Rigging, the delegation toured the company’s product showroom and intelligent production workshops. They inspected core high-end rigging products designed for sectors such as deep-sea engineering, aerospace, and offshore wind power. From the localization efforts for Grade 120 ultra-high-strength rigging to the collaborative development of the industry chain, the team observed operations and asked detailed questions to gain insight into the company's latest progress in key technological breakthroughs.
Following the tour, the two parties held a symposium dedicated to intellectual property work. Chairman Du Daping extended a warm welcome to the delegation and outlined the company's development. With over sixty years of experience in high-end rigging manufacturing, Shenli Rigging is recognized as one of the first batch of national-level "Little Giant" enterprises (specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative), a Shandong Provincial Manufacturing Single-Champion Enterprise, and a National Intellectual Property Advantage Enterprise; it has also been selected for the cultivation pipeline for demonstration enterprises in building an IP powerhouse (2025–2027). As a chain-leading enterprise in the deep-sea and aerospace support sector, Shenli Rigging consistently uses intellectual property to fortify its core competitive advantages.
Despite these achievements, challenges remain. Chairman Du Daping candidly noted that the company faces bottlenecks in areas such as high-value patent cultivation, IP rights protection, and collaborative patent commercialization across the industry chain, expressing hope for professional guidance and policy support from the provincial center.
Subsequently, Zhang Tixue, Assistant General Manager and Head of the Intellectual Property Department, delivered a comprehensive report addressing the research objectives. He covered topics including patent strategy and system construction, the effectiveness of patent commercialization and utilization, and participation in patent-empowerment initiatives. Leveraging the "Helping Enterprises Scale Up, Grow, and Expand Globally" initiative, the company has achieved comprehensive improvements in its intellectual property (IP) management capabilities. At the same time, it put forward specific requests and optimization suggestions regarding priority patent examination, rights protection assistance, access to resources from the Yellow River Basin IP Big Data Center, and collaborative industry chain empowerment.
After carefully listening to the report, the research team systematically reviewed the practical IP challenges and service needs raised by the company. Aligning with the province's master plan for IP services in the deep-sea, aerospace, and aviation industry chains, the team provided on-site policy interpretations and answered questions. Both parties also exchanged ideas and opinions on optimizing the three empowerment initiatives and developing collaborative service models led by "chain-leading" enterprises.
The research team highly commended Shenli Rigging—as a chain-leading enterprise—for its achievements in IP innovation, industry chain collaboration, and the commercialization of patented technologies. The team noted that rigging equipment serves as a critical component for deep-sea exploration, aerospace lifting operations, and offshore wind power equipment. They urged the company to continue strengthening its core technology patent portfolio, utilize provincial IP public service platforms effectively, and leverage its leadership role to drive simultaneous improvements in IP management among upstream and downstream SMEs. The Provincial Intellectual Property Development Center pledged to continue extending service resources to the grassroots level, precisely address enterprise needs, streamline the full-chain service process—covering IP creation, protection, and utilization—and use patents to empower the development of "new quality productive forces."
This targeted research visit provided a clear direction for upgrading Shenli Rigging’s IP capabilities. Moving forward, Shandong Shenli Rigging will use this visit as a key opportunity to deepen its focus on core technologies supporting the deep-sea and aerospace sectors, while intensifying efforts to secure high-value invention patents and overseas PCT patents. The company plans to revitalize existing patent assets, expand the scale of patent pledges and open licensing, and create demonstration projects for the commercialization of industry-academia-research outcomes.
Furthermore, it will actively participate in the "Helping Enterprises Scale Up, Grow, and Expand Globally" empowerment series, utilize provincial public service platforms like the Yellow River Basin IP Big Data Center, conduct routine patent early-warning and R&D navigation, and strengthen its overseas IP protection system. Moving forward, Shandong Shenli Rigging will remain committed to innovation-driven development and intellectual property leadership. By fully leveraging its role as a "chain-leader" enterprise to drive industry progress and establishing channels for collaborative innovation across the upstream and downstream sectors, the company aims to achieve full domestic substitution of high-end marine engineering and aerospace rigging through proprietary intellectual property, thereby contributing "Shenli strength" to the high-quality development of the province's landmark deep-sea and aerospace industrial chains.
