"Lingang Memory - Starting from" The First Boat of Southward Crossing to East Zhejiang "Historical Materials Museum Opening Exit | The First Boat of Southward Crossing to East Zhejiang | Lingang

More than 80 years ago, located at No. 288 Taoyuan Road in the Lingang New Area of the Shanghai Free Trade Zone, it was once the estuary of Lingang Shuyuan Town. The ancestors fought against the Japanese invaders on this land, transported ammunition personnel for the New Fourth Army, and helped to open up the anti Japanese base in eastern Zhejiang. The story of Mr. Huang Dwarf, a patriotic businessman, takes place here; Nowadays, this place has become the location of the well-known stainless steel vessel manufacturing enterprise - Silode in the industry.

Don't forget the way you came, only then can you go far.

On August 30th, the Silede Historical Materials Museum officially opened here, titled "Lingang Memory - Setting Sail from the First Ship of Southern Crossing to East Zhejiang". Looking back at the present and the past, being in it can deeply perceive the profound changes in history. When it comes to why this historical museum was established, Zhang Bin, the general manager of Shanghai Silede Stainless Steel Products Co., Ltd., a "specialized, refined, unique, and new" enterprise in Shanghai, was deeply moved. Over the past 80 years, the former export port has become a fertile land and a factory, and now it has become a world-renowned new area of China's pilot free trade zone, Lingang New Area. This is a microcosm of the times, witnessing China's increasing strength.

Looking at history, it can be found that Lingang Shuyuan Town, located on the coast of the East China Sea, has a history of over 200 years since its establishment. The salty sea breeze, saline alkali soil, and vast ocean have cultivated the broad mindedness and strong perseverance of the people of the academy; The vicissitudes of time and the accumulation of historical and cultural heritage give Lingang Shuyuan Town a sense of historical significance, which contains a profound red gene culture, as well as the character of hard work, fearlessness of sacrifice, courage to win, and kindness to others. The construction of the "Lingang Memory - Setting Sail from the First Ship of Southward Crossing to Zhejiang East" historical materials museum coincides with the requirements of the "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Supporting the High level Reform and Opening up of Pudong New Area to Build a Leading Area for Socialist Modernization Construction", which states that Pudong should "promote red culture, promote Shanghai style culture, Jiangnan culture, and expand and strengthen the cultural industry".

Thanks to the support of relevant departments of the Lingang New Area Management Committee, the government of Shuyuan Town, and the Pudong New Area Cultural and Historical Society, Silede, together with all parties, has deeply explored the red culture in the Lingang Academy area of Pudong. Through careful research and collection, Silede has collected relevant historical materials and precious cultural relics that have spanned over 80 years, from the Anti Japanese War, the Liberation War, the New China Construction, the reclamation of land by educated youth, the establishment of industry, and the reform and opening up to the present day in the new era. The Silede Historical Materials Museum, "Lingang Memory - Starting from the First Ship of Southern Crossing of Zhejiang East", was finally built.

Red Inheritance sets sail here

Pushing open the door of the Historical Materials Museum, the exhibition hall with a red main tone is filled with scenery and stories step by step. Standing in front of old objects and historical exhibition boards engraved with historical imprints, through textual introductions and following the timeline, visitors can search for the memories of the past on this land. Taking history as a lesson, not forgetting our original aspiration, and keeping our mission in mind, the inheritance of the red spirit sets sail here.

Coincidentally, 33 years ago, when Silede was founded here, Zhang Bin, who had a background in enterprise management, was one of the earliest founders of the company and also the grandson of Mr. Huang Dwei. "I am particularly honored that as a descendant of Mr. Huang dwardi, I still persist in starting my own business at this former port of entry. Today, I am not only the General Manager of Silede, but also a member of the Pudong New Fourth Army Research Association, leading all employees to compare with the highest industry standards and practice the spirit of craftsmanship. A group of people, a lifetime, a dream, focus on producing exquisite stainless steel insulation vessels, which are continuously sold to all parts of the world."

For over 30 years, Silode has evolved from a simple OEM manufacturing enterprise to an independent brand enterprise with titles such as Shanghai Industrial Design Center, Technology Giant Enterprise, and Shanghai High tech Enterprise. Its products are sold to more than 50 countries and regions, with an annual export sales volume of about 50 million US dollars. 80% of its products are exported to Europe and America, and it has won a good reputation internationally.

"Departure Point" in "The First Ship Crossing Zhejiang East South"

30 ° 57'29 "north latitude and 121 ° 553'28" east longitude - this is the "departure point" of the first ship to sail south to eastern Zhejiang. A series of numbers in one direction represents the beginning of a century long memory. "Starting from here, after 33 years of growth and transformation, Silede will adhere to the corporate spirit of 'one cup that warms people's hearts, one lifetime of Silede', never forget its original intention, continue its spiritual bloodline, inherit the red gene, focus on manufacturing the stainless steel insulation vessel industry 'one thing', and continue to satisfy consumers' longing for a better life with high-quality services and products."
