Chairman of Jinguanyuan Food - Wu Wenfu: an overseas Chinese entrepreneur who is committed to doing good.

Wu Wenfu

Born in Jinjiang City in July 1955, he is currently the chairman of Golden Crown Food (Fujian) Co., Ltd. Social positions: Chairman of the Wu Clan Association of China, Vice President of Fujian Provincial Guangcai Career Promotion Association, Vice President of Quanzhou Federation of Industry and Commerce, Founding President of Quanzhou Food Industry Association, Jinjiang Municipal People’s Congress Representative, Jinjiang Charity Federation Eternal Honorary President, etc.

I first met Wu Wenfu at the founding conference of the Fujian Enterprise Federation of the Chinese Wu Clan Association held in Fuzhou at the turn of spring and summer. Wu Wenfu, as the chairman of the Chinese Wu Clan Association, awarded the federation a plaque and also worked hard and funded the conference.

In early June, during an interview in Jinjiang, the reporter had the opportunity to visit the "Golden Crown Garden", the largest condiment production and R&D base in Fujian Province founded by Wu Wenfu, and interview him.

The work of overseas Chinese is more important than the enterprise

Entrepreneurs of Wu Wenfu's age are the first generation of entrepreneurs after the reform and opening up. The companies he founded have gone through ups and downs and kept pace with the times. However, in addition to the vicissitudes of time, what is written on his face is his Confucian businessman style.

Wu Wenfu is close to overseas Chinese. He is a returned overseas Chinese from the Philippines and is currently the chairman of the Xintang Overseas Chinese Federation in Lingyuan, Luoshan, Jinjiang. When talking to reporters, he did not talk about the development of the company, but excitedly introduced the trip planned and organized not long ago for Filipino-Chinese teenagers to return to their hometown to find their roots.

When asked why he fell in love with overseas Chinese affairs, he said that he engaged in overseas Chinese affairs because he was moved by overseas Chinese. At the beginning of the reform and opening up, Luoshan was still very poor. At that time, many overseas Chinese spared no effort to return to their hometowns to build roads and schools, pull wires for their hometowns, etc., and invested in businesses to change the backwardness of their hometowns. Although Wu Wenfu was not rich, he already owned a motorcycle through his small business. He often took on the task of picking up and dropping off overseas Chinese. Over time, he developed a deep relationship with the overseas Chinese and was moved by their behavior. He also determined to serve the overseas Chinese.

God rewards hard work, and Wu Wenfu succeeded in his career through hard work. Since then, he has devoted not only time but also financial resources to overseas Chinese affairs. He has contributed to the construction of Huge Primary School and Xinqiao Middle School and established scholarships and teaching funds.

Because Wu Wenfu is enthusiastic about social work, treats people thoughtfully, and has a deep friendship with many overseas Chinese, he has a high reputation among overseas Chinese in the Philippines. In 1995, at the initiative of Wu Wenfu, overseas Chinese in the Philippines established the Luoshan Lingyuan Xintang Township Federation of Jinjiang City, Philippines.

There are nearly 90,000 overseas Chinese in the three streets of Luoshan. They have made great contributions to their hometown and need a 'home' of their own. Thanks to Wu Wenfu's efforts, overseas Chinese in three streets donated more than 3 million yuan, and the Luoshan Lingyuan Xintang Overseas Chinese Federation Building was completed in 2003. Since then, we have had the support and funding to carry out overseas Chinese affairs work. From 2003 to the present, Wu Wenfu was elected as the chairman of the Federation of Overseas Chinese in response to public expectations.

Wu Wenfu serves as the chairman of the Overseas Chinese Federation, but he does not receive any job allowance. He often pays for hospitality, and when he is on business trips, he pays all the expenses himself. Once I visited the home of an old overseas Chinese in Lingshui Community to express my condolences. I found that the old overseas Chinese and his family were living in a dilapidated ancestral house and had no financial means. I immediately helped the old overseas Chinese raise funds to build a house and took the lead in spending 100,000 yuan. Now the old overseas Chinese and his family have moved in. Entered the two-story building.

In recent years, due to urban construction and development, many old houses of overseas Chinese in Luoshan, Lingyuan, and Xintang communities have been expropriated and relocated, and there have been many incidents of overseas Chinese property being occupied. Many overseas Chinese sought help from the Overseas Chinese Federation. As soon as Wu Wenfu heard this, he immediately stepped forward to help coordinate the solution and assisted the overseas Chinese in completing the procedures. This kind of thing is very time-consuming and energy-consuming, and some overseas Chinese are already the third or fourth generation and have problems with language communication, but Wu Wenfu runs at the front every time.

In this regard, Wu Wenfu believes that in his company, sometimes things need to be pushed back and slowed down for a while.

Enthusiastic about public welfare and unswervingly determined

Wu Wenfu has many social responsibilities, but he values ​​philanthropy the most. He is the eternal honorary president of the Jinjiang Charity Federation. In 2007, he was named a "philanthropist" by the municipal government for his generous donation of RMB 7.1 million to the Jinjiang Charity Federation. ".

In fact, he had previously practiced charity. In the year of his father's 80th birthday, he donated 800,000 yuan to build a villa-style elderly activity center for the village. In addition, he has sponsored 300,000 yuan in poverty alleviation funds in Gande Town, Anxi, and donated 500,000 yuan in flood relief funds in northwest Fujian. He is always happy to do things like this that require help. He initiated and established the Wu Clan Association of China and the Fujian Provincial Cultural Relics Protection Unit Quanzhou Wu Ancestral Hall Management Committee, and he took the lead in generously donating millions of yuan to carry out activities. He also initiated and initiated the fundraising of more than 2 million yuan to build the Wu clan ancestral hall in Tumen Street, Quanzhou. Due to his great contribution to surname work, the Surname Committee of the Chinese Cultural Association recently appointed him as vice president.

According to incomplete statistics, Wu Wenfu has invested nearly 10 million yuan in public welfare undertakings. In April 2013, Wu Wenfu was awarded the Charity Contribution Award by the Fujian Charity Federation.

When a reporter asked whether there were conflicts between social activities and business operations, he admitted that of course there were. But since he was pushed to this position, he can only do his best and do his best. Although he is busy, he is very fulfilling and realizes the value of life in his busy life.

Make soy sauce, people are doing it, God is watching

Wu Wenfu is persistent and responsible in public welfare undertakings, and he should be the same in his career. Jinguan Food (Fujian) Co., Ltd. founded by him was rated as "China's Leading Agricultural and Sideline Products Enterprise", and "Jinguanyuan" was recognized as "China's Well-known Trademark".

When talking about how to make the company bigger and stronger, Wu Wenfu said: "It's actually very simple. It requires hard work and a down-to-earth life." He believes that the food industry is a health industry and it is necessary to ensure people's health, from the procurement of raw materials to the production process. Strict standards must be followed for each pass. He spent a huge sum of RMB 150 million to introduce the most advanced machinery and equipment from abroad, carefully selected high-quality genetically modified soybeans from Northeast Africa from the source, took advantage of the unique mild climate along the coast of southern Fujian, adopted a high-salt dilute brewing process, and dried it in the sun through the action of microbial enzymes. Carefully brewed for 6 months. Rich in color and mellow in flavor, it is a good helper for seasoning gourmet food.

Wu Wenfu emphasized: "People are doing it, and God is watching. I want to make soy sauce all my life." He said: "If we want consumers to eat healthily and deliciously, we must make products with heart." It is reported that Jinguanyuan successfully launched "Fresh Sauce" New product series such as "Taste" and "Laotan Niang", and now a series of vinegar drinks with beauty and health care effects have been launched. The products are sold all over the country and exported to Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States in large quantities.

Relevant parties commented on Wu Wenfu: He is a very prestigious "leading brother" in promoting the development of Quanzhou's food industry, and even the development of Fujian's food industry. He was naturally elected as the president of the Quanzhou Food Industry Association. He was awarded the title of Outstanding Economic Figure in Quanzhou City on the 30th Anniversary of Reform and Opening Up.

It is rare and valuable. Wu Wenfu has always insisted on constantly learning and enriching himself. Due to poverty when he was a child, Wu Wenfu dropped out of school early to take on family responsibilities. He regretted that he did not study more, and he also knew the role of knowledge in his business management. Therefore, he found time to study and further his studies after work. He went to Peking University and other well-known universities for training, and received an honorary doctorate in entrepreneurship from Gordon University in the United States.

Wu Wenfu always sticks to the industry with his persistence in doing good, concentration and wisdom. Integrity management is the ideal he pursues, as well as his personality charm and successful entrepreneurial legend.
