Those Taking Major Responsibilities and Adhering to the Right Path Achieve Greatest Results
When talking about his past years in XCMG, Chairman Wang Min found XCMG core values first coming into his mind, “After taking this position in 1999, we lived through all difficulties in those years by relying on reforms. After a few years of hard work, XCMG was worth tens of billions of Yuan.
