VINNO held a new product press conference during the ninth annual Mainland and Taiwan High-End Ultrasound Medicine Forum. On this warm day VINNO’s President, Mr. Xi Shui, shared the persistence and hard work that the company has had for its dream since its founding in the past seven years.
When we were just starting our business we discussed development directions, technology plans, etc., quite a bit. Sometimes we had differing views. Sometimes we had arguments, but when we discussed why we wanted to start a business, and what the goal of our business was, our team was very united. That is to say we hoped to make a high end national brand.
This encompasses three key words. The first is brand. Only a brand that can provide high quality products and services for the long term can become a brand that people respect. This was the requirement we had for ourselves. We required that we had a long term promise to our customers to improve product quality, a promise to work hard for them for the long term.
The next key word is high end. This requires that we have a strong innovative spirit, concentrate on technical progress, and continue investment in research and development. Only in this way can we possibly make high end products.
The last keyword is nation. I have already reached the age in which I understand fate. Our generation has experienced poverty, our country’s change and prosperity. When we were young we received an orthodox education, as a result we have an impulse to contribute something to the country. I believe that many of the people sitting here who are of my age feel the same.
Many people said we should have used a Made in Germany brand when we started our business, but this completely betrayed our original intention. This is because our dream is to work together with countless people like ourselves, and one day in the future make it so that the phrase Made in China also earns the same respect that Made in Germany receives.
At the beginning of 2014 VINNO products officially went onto market after four years of concentrated research and development by nearly 100 of our research engineers. I really like this sentence: To assess the value of a company you not only need to look at what that company possesses, but also at what positive influence that company has had in the industry.
Today, I hope to summarize our efforts through our positive influence in the industry.

As an ultrasound equipment company we not only pursue technology, but also pursue the art and aesthetics of a product and humanistic care. Of course, pursuing art comes with a price.
When we were designing portable products and wanted to lessen their thickness by 3 millimeters we tossed out three different solutions. We realized our goal after over a year. So today you can see that our portable color Doppler ultrasound is thinner than any other similar brand by 20%, and at most 25%.
Yet it is because of this type of persistence that VINNO was able to command a market in over 60 countries around the world only three years after going public.
I remember one day when VINNO products were officially brought onto the market, me and my Vice President, Yuan Hongyu, discussed our dreams together with an expert sitting here right now.
He was very excited that a national brand ultrasound company had such a good starting point, and had good hopes for our development. Due to the fact that we were all of the same age, we had a similar impulse. At the same time, he also was a bit worried. He worried that we although we had a good starting point, could we stay concentrated for the long term, could we be persistent, and could we attract outstanding talent to achieve this enterprise together with us?
Because China has so many companies that lack the spirit of artisans, lack an attitude of sharing, and pursue short-term profits, few become brands that are worthy of respect. No language can express what we need to do. We can only quietly make up our minds, and continuously work hard to express our adherence to our dreams.
Today, we have been in business for seven years, and we are still moving forward. We hope VINNO can be like a ginkgo tree, and originate in China and spread throughout the world. We hope ever more cooperation partners join our team. We hope each of you sitting here can become witnesses and supervisors to our hard work, and supervise us in continuing to bravely move forward. We hope to create a high end national color Doppler ultrasound brand and realize the dream of people of this generation together with each of you!
