Having served Gree for more than 30 years and 7 years at the helm, the biggest miracle Dong Mingzhu created in the industry during his tenure should be the four words "Made in China". For example, the core technology of Gree air conditioners has always been at the forefront of the world, bringing Gree to the forefront. It has become one of the world's top 500 companies and has been adhering to innovation and research and development in various directions to make Chinese manufacturing go global and become famous in the world.
Promote Made in China. In the early days of Gree Electric's development, there were also the problems of low standards, poor branding, and poor structure that were common in the home appliance industry at that time. After Dong Mingzhu took office, he put the quality of Gree products first and gradually won the market's trust in Chinese products. After years of development, Gree Air Conditioning has become a leading brand in the domestic air conditioning industry and has gone overseas to become a brand made in China. Based on Gree air conditioners, Dong Mingzhu has derived products such as Gree smart home appliances and Gree smartphones, forming a relatively complete product chain. In addition, Dong Mingzhu focuses on manufacturing and does not play capital games, which is very admirable.
Develop intelligent manufacturing. In the early days of Gree Electric's development, China's home appliance industry generally lacked core technologies. They are all in the hands of foreigners, we only produce and assemble them. So since then, people have been keen to go to Japan and South Korea to buy home appliances. Dong Mingzhu has always wanted to introduce the most advanced technology into household appliances. Gree air conditioners can intelligently adjust temperature, save energy intelligently, and be controlled through mobile APP. Dong Mingzhu also hopes to realize the Internet of Things based on Gree smart home appliances through Gree mobile phones. Under Dong Mingzhu's vigorous promotion, Gree Group has established 12 research institutes and more than 700 laboratories to independently develop core technologies. Patented technologies such as the three-cylinder two-stage variable displacement compressor are world-leading and are Gree’s anti-virus magic weapon for expanding external markets.
Dong Mingzhu’s contribution to Made in China is also obvious. She has always advocated innovative technology and improved product quality, and has made her contribution to Made in China going global.
