Shen Yan:I want to serve the development of Tibet in a longer term
From the coast of the East China Sea to the snowy plateau,from Nantong sentiment to the spirit of the"Two Roads",from heartwarming projects to the speed of Tibetan construction,from low-key transformations and upgrades to the emergence of green prefabricated buildings...Under the leadership of Shen Yan,the General Manager of Tibet Qi'an Construction Engineering Co.,Ltd.,Jiangsu Qi'an Construction Group Co.,Ltd.Tibet Company(referred to as"Qi'an Tibet Company")has been pragmatic and has embarked on a high-quality and characteristic development path.
Starting from scratch:Drawing on White Paper
A thousand mile trip begins with one step.
In May 2012,the Urban Construction Department of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development of the People's Republic of China held a seminar on the heating renovation plan in Lhasa.Shen Yan was invited to participate and learned for the first time about the"Warm Heart Project"-the Lhasa heating renovation construction project.As soon as the meeting ended,he immediately contacted the Lhasa City Heating and Gas Supply Command.
On July 11,2012,Shen Yan set foot on the land of Tibet for the first time.
Before my expedition to Tibet,my friends advised me not to go.I heard that the conditions there were particularly difficult..."Faced with the advice,he still chose to take a look.Keeping the fear of altitude sickness in mind,we have secured the installation project of the"model house"in the Leye Garden community and issued a"military order"to 432 households to complete it within 15 days.
In this way,he led the team to embark on a construction war of"Warm Heart Project"that ran against time.It's equivalent to starting from scratch.It depends on whether it can be achieved.But my judgment is that it can be achieved!Because this is a government project,doing practical things for the people."Looking back at the beginning,Shen Yan's face showed a rare sense of relief.Finally,complete the task 3 days in advance.
Shen Yan said,"Looking back on my journey in Tibet,I can divide it into two stages:the first three years and later
In the first three years,as his understanding of Tibet deepened,he increasingly felt that he wanted to stay.Tibet needs us enterprises that can do practical things even more
Later,the first physical factory,Tibet Qi'an Energy Saving Construaction Company,was established.In 2014,building factories,purchasing equipment,recruiting personnel...was officially rooted,"said Gong Renhui,the engineering department manager of Qi'an Tibet Company.
At the time of heating,it was discovered that many building walls were not insulated,and single-story windows were not warm enough,resulting in poor energy efficiency and high energy consumption,resulting in high costs for natural gas heating."Qian Wei said,so he decided to invest in factories to produce energy-saving insulation doors,windows,and walls.At the end of 2015,through market research,it was found that the promotion of energy-saving doors and windows was good,but the promotion of insulation walls was not ideal.
Faced with difficulties,he once again decided to transform:to become a prefabricated building,and Tibet Tibet Construction Technology Co.,Ltd.(referred to as"Tibet Construction Technology")emerged.Prefabricated buildings integrate earthquake resistance,insulation,and energy conservation,solving problems from the source throughout the entire house design and construction,and receiving good market response.
From Jiangsu Qi'an to Tibet Construction Technology,Shen Yan has always adhered to the spirit of Qi'an and worked steadily.Under his leadership,Tibet Construction Technology's leading strength in the field of prefabricated buildings on snowy plateau has become increasingly prominent.

The'Role Model'of National Unity:Gaining after Dedication
Strive steadily and achieve success.
Walking from Qi'an,Jiangsu to the depths of the snow,it is not enough to only produce products.Shen Yan has always put forging a strong sense of Chinese national community in the first place.
Dan Zhen is from Mozhugongka County,Lhasa,and works at the Qi'an Tibet Company.Her greatest feeling is warmth.Whether in work or life,whenever encountering difficulties,everyone will be enthusiastic about helping each other,which is influenced by Mr.Shen.Encouraged by Shen Yan,this young man from the mountain village is becoming increasingly confident and has a strong sense of achievement in his work.
Entering Qi'an,Jiangsu,a wave of youthful vitality rushed towards us.The average age of employees is 35 years old,and the work atmosphere is relaxed.Our ethnic minority employees account for 38%of the total number of employees in the company,"Shen Yan said."Every year,new forces join.Whether it's personnel training or school enterprise integration,we are all doing it to cultivate local talents that can be retained,reliable,and useful."So far,through continuous job development,we have absorbed a total of 168 Tibetan university students.
In addition to introducing talents,Shen Yan also constantly pays attention to the work and life of students who have gone abroad from Tibet.In order to provide Tibetan students studying in Jiangsu with broader development opportunities after graduation,he actively coordinated with the local community and arranged for them to intern and exercise in enterprises.Dunzhu Wangjia,a nursing student majoring in nursing at the 21st level of Zhenjiang Vocational College,is one of them.
I am interning at the Second People's Hospital of Qidong City and my studies and life here are very good.Although I have not met Mr.Shen,I know he and the company have been helping me.They have provided me with living expenses and arranged internship opportunities with the school to help me learn skills,"said Dunzhuwangja.
Over the past 10 years,the company has selflessly donated over 3 million yuan to the development of social undertakings in Tibet.
Ten years of struggling with the middle tide.Under the leadership of Shen Yan,Qi'an Tibet Company focuses on the"four major events"and promotes the spirit of"lacking oxygen without lacking fighting spirit",striving to become an enterprise,strengthen strength,and establish a brand in the snowy plateau.
As a party member,I feel that my work in Tibet has not been done well yet,and I still want to do better and serve the social and economic development of Tibet in the longer term!"This is Shen Yan's life creed.
