Eyes full of vitality and transformation, the heavenly workers are competing for new things day by day. With the rise of the age of the first generation of entrepreneurs in wealth creation, the baton has been passed to the hands of the new generation of young entrepreneurs. In order to explore the successful "code" of the intergenerational inheritance of private enterprises, the United Front Work Department of the Laoshan District Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Laoshan District Federation of Industry and Commerce launched the "Laoshan New Generation of Private Entrepreneurs Growth Record" interview column, showing their attitude of refusing to lie flat on the merit book of their fathers from the perspective of young entrepreneurs, carrying forward their entrepreneurial spirit of "innovation, hard work, pragmatism and dedication", and helping the private economy in Laoshan District to achieve high-quality development.
Today, let's talk to Qu Shanjian, general manager of Qingdao Songshan Machinery Co., Ltd.

Inheritance is the direction of the heart
Career and love go in both directions
If entrepreneurs also have inherited genes, then this genetic code should at least include the growth environment, education level, and life experience. When his father, Qu Lizeng, founded Songshan Machinery, Qu Shanjian was only three years old. Under the influence of his father, Qu Shanjian showed a love for machinery from an early age. His toys are basically small iron parts, and he likes to knock and beat himself when he has nothing to do, and after he understands things, he has the idea of making the company bigger and stronger.
Unlike the "second generation" who have passed on some passively, Qu Shanjian has always been preparing for the inheritance of the enterprise since he was young. The root of this initiative is partly due to innate interest and partly from the influence of the father. "My father was an old party member, silently dedicated when working in the community, always charging ahead. After starting a business, I endured hardships and stood hard work, never said to give up, and this spirit deeply affected me and became a role model for me to study and work. Qu Shanjian described his father's influence on him in this way.
Indeed, Qu Shanjian, who was born in 1992, has a calm and introverted attitude that does not match his peers. He seems to be bad at words, but every word is firm and powerful; There are no entertainment equipment in his office, the most conspicuous are the stones collected by his father from all over the world and a model of a train about 1 meter long; He doesn't care much about the image, and his favorite thing to wear besides a T-shirt is his overalls... The hardships of running a business are as sweet as a gift to him, and career and love have become a two-way rush.
From not understanding drawings to being proficient in business
Practical work is the best teacher for growth
In order to better succeed the class, Qu Shanjian University chose to major in business management, and then went to study in Korea, and after graduation, he entered Songshan Machinery from the grass-roots employees. "At the beginning, I couldn't even read the drawings, I could only learn from the beginning, I almost did every position in the workshop, I believe that hard work is the best teacher for growth, and it is also the foundation of running a good business." Qu Shanjian said that it was also from then that he discovered the problems that restricted the healthy development of enterprises: there were fewer highly educated technical personnel, and the endogenous motivation of enterprise innovation was insufficient.
In order to solve this development pain point, Qu Shanjian took the lead in cooperating with universities such as Qingdao University of Science and Technology, and leading enterprises such as CRRC Sifang to build a R&D practice base. Driven by strong innovation, Songshan Machinery R&D and process level continues to improve, has successively obtained 33 patents, has been rated as a national high-tech enterprise, Qingdao "specialized special new enterprise" and other honors, and was awarded Shandong Province "contract and trustworthy enterprise", Qingdao "worker pioneer" and other titles.
In addition to introducing talents from the outside, Qu Shanjian also attaches special importance to the internal training of employees. "Manufacturing enterprises generally face the problem of recruitment difficulties, so we must strengthen staff training, only let employees grow together with the enterprise, will enhance their loyalty and contribution to the enterprise, enterprises can continue to grow and develop." In Qu Shanjian's view, talent is the cornerstone of enterprise development, and hardware equipment is the wings of enterprise development. In order to improve the production capacity and efficiency of the workshop, he has visited industrial Internet enterprises many times, constantly introduced high-end equipment such as intelligent CNC equipment, and the enterprise production line has been iteratively upgraded, and now the CNC machine tools worth millions in the workshop of Songshan Machinery are not in the minority, and hundreds of thousands of intelligent equipment are everywhere.
Create a corporate culture with party building as the core
Make good use of the Chamber of Commerce platform to leverage development
Qu Shanjian has always cherished a special feeling for party building; he joined the party in his freshman year and this year he gloriously became a party representative at the 13th Party Congress in Laoshan District. "At first, I founded the party building brand under the influence of my father, but later I found that doing a good job in party building can solve many practical problems for us, such as difficulty in recruiting workers, introducing talents, building platforms, etc., so I have always believed that party building is the core culture of our company." Qu Shanjian said.
Since the establishment of the party branch, the company will develop 1-2 party members every year, which greatly improves the enthusiasm of the company's employees. Yang Zhilei, one of the backbone of the party branch, joined Songshan Machinery in 2009, because of his strong professional and technical ability, he was developed into a party member by Qu Shanjian in 2020, and served as a member of the party branch organization committee, responsible for continuing to expand the party member team of the enterprise; Another backbone Duan Chaowen joined Songshan Machinery in 2006, has outstanding professional skills, but never hides skills, always teaches them to newcomers without reservation, and becomes a glorious Communist Party member in 2021, "I feel a great sense of accomplishment, not only the enterprise equipment is being updated, our skills are also improving, our income is also steadily increasing, and it is very promising to work here." Duan Chaowen said.
Adhere to party building to lead development, and actively fulfill social responsibility. With the help of the Laoshan District Federation of Industry and Commerce, Qu Shanjian actively participated in the construction of social organizations such as the Chamber of Commerce. As the vice president of the Beizhai Street Chamber of Commerce, he served the development of member enterprises of the Chamber of Commerce with heart and soul, and led the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce Student Aid Fund to help students in need in Beizhai Street. During the epidemic prevention and control period, he led the members of the party branch to organize donations and materials for many times, with a donation value of tens of thousands of yuan.
After years of reform and innovation and rapid development, the current annual comprehensive processing capacity of Songshan Machinery has reached 4,000 tons, the operating income is nearly 50 million yuan, and the new modern production line located in Jimo is about to be put into use, and the production capacity is further expanded. This year is the year of Qu Shanjian's establishment, and it is also the sixth year that he took over Matsuyama Machinery. If the first six years are adaptation and running-in, then how should the next six years be laid out? In Laoshan District, a fertile land for innovation and entrepreneurship, how much nutrients can Songshan Machinery absorb and digest? Although the future is unpredictable, Qu Shanjian firmly believes in working hard to serve the country and the prosperity of industry, he uses his feet to face the unknown, uses innovation and development to cope with challenges, and uses tenacity and practice to do an excellent answer sheet for enterprise inheritance.
