—My Heparin Journey 26 Year

The clear sky is a pristine blue, and the afternoon after the rain is bathed in bright sunshine. The orange tree in front of the office building is lush and verdant, its branches heavy with oranges that have ripened from green to golden yellow. It almost feels as though autumn—the season of harvest—is upon us once again!

Time really flies! 2004 The scenes of planting tangerine and bayberry trees year after year are vividly etched in my memory: digging trenches, making holes, planting seedlings, and watering them—all seem like yesterday. In the first two years, we couldn’t wait for the trees to bear fruit. Now, though, the bayberries and tangerines keep ripening one after another, turning red year after year. Every time I see the trees laden with fruit, I feel deeply gratified and proud. No matter whether they’re willing to listen or not, I always tell my younger colleagues: “These trees were all planted by us back then.”

What’s exciting is not just that the fruit trees have yielded a harvest, but also that “Yinuorui” has achieved remarkable results: Over the past three years, it has successively won awards in Germany and Russia. GMP Certificate, passed in the United States FDA, Turkey’s official auditor is the only heparin company in the industry that has been approved for visits and reporting by U.S. news media.

It is undeniable that these achievements are the result of the joint efforts of all YinoRi employees.

The harvest was actually hard-earned. We’ve evolved from a workshop processing agricultural and sideline products to a biochemical plant, and then further upgraded to a pharmaceutical enterprise—this journey has taken us quite some time. 26 Over the years, we’ve evolved from transporting pig small intestines by bicycle and motorcycle to using specialized refrigerated trucks equipped with dedicated containers; from boiling heparin over large stoves built from red bricks and cement to today’s fully stainless-steel, completely sealed, automated production process; and from manually carrying small intestines in woven bags while paying cash at the meat counter to today’s end-to-end monitoring and traceability system—from raw material procurement all the way through product manufacturing.

This represents a quantum leap in Yino’s quality and also a step forward for the times. 26 Over the past years, we’ve weathered countless storms and experienced every flavor—sweet, sour, bitter, and spicy. Along the way, there was sweat, there were moments of injustice, and there were also plenty of joyful laughs.

I remember once being chased all over the vegetable market by the butcher, who brandished a large cleaver, just to settle a dispute over the length of a small intestine. I also recall the helplessness I felt one winter when the pipes froze and burst in temperatures below minus twenty degrees, leaving my car unable to start—how I ended up fixing the pipes myself and pushing the car to get it going again.

I remember building an underground warehouse and, in order to cut costs, we’d carry cement blocks up to the highway exit. As I was loading them onto the truck, the ramp slipped, and I nearly got crushed by a cement block. I also recall taking long road trips—just to stay awake—and carrying a bag of roasted soybeans with me. I’d eat them while driving, which not only kept me alert but also staved off hunger. I’d hum little tunes to myself, feeling secretly smug and proud. Even more vividly, I remember returning from Hangzhou after selling heparin, lugging a whole sack full of cash. The entire journey was filled with both tension and excitement. Each of these moments—every single one—unfolds before my eyes like scenes from a film reel.

In the early days, the hardships faced by Yinuorui’s small factory were mostly physical challenges. But after the pharmaceutical company underwent transformation and upgrading, simply relying on physical endurance was no longer enough to solve problems. Even in the relatively straightforward production of crude heparin—right from raw material procurement to product warehousing, from document standards to record forms—every chapter and every guideline is meticulously standardized and rigorously enforced, with each batch and each step fully traceable and accountable.

In the past, when purchasing raw materials, as long as the price was right, we could simply hand over the money and take delivery—no matter whether the supplier was Zhang San’s or Li Si’s. Nowadays, suppliers must be vetted. QA The shipment must be approved by the auditor and the quality authorization officer, and also include an official quarantine certificate upon delivery. In the industry, pig small intestines have always been packaged in woven bags; however, the company now not only has to use specially designed food-grade plastic containers, but these containers must also be printed with the YinoRui logo. LOGO In the past, whether it was casing salt, protease, caustic soda, or alcohol—no matter how much or how little was used—as long as nothing went to waste, there were no restrictions. But now, using too much or too little is simply unacceptable; material balance has become mandatory. As times evolve, the demands on product quality are continually rising. Breaking old mindsets and establishing a new system requires not only hard work and sweat, but also a comprehensive enhancement of employees’ quality awareness and risk consciousness, ensuring that we keep pace with the rapid developments of our era.

The tomorrow of the future is incredibly bright, yet the hardships of the journey test every pharmaceutical professional.

There was a time when I lost sleep at night, tormented by the frustration of having worked tirelessly to improve the situation only to fall short of expectations—facing reproach from colleagues and criticism from my supervisor. There was also a time when I felt deeply frustrated, knowing that despite cutting costs to please our suppliers, the company itself remained unsatisfied and ended up scolding me instead. And there was yet another time when a supplier, furious after having over 170,000 yuan in payment withheld from them, came storming into my office, demanding that I personally cover their losses—leaving me utterly helpless, unable to explain my side of the story even though I knew I was in the right.

In the end, all the effort paid off—the mandarins and bayberries planted years ago are now laden with fruit, and the fragrant osmanthus and camphor trees have grown into lush, shady groves. Yinuo Rui has also seamlessly transformed from a small workshop into a modern pharmaceutical enterprise.

  2016 Since the beginning of this year, thanks to the strong support from the Group and the relentless efforts of all employees, the company has achieved one success after another. It has not only received unanimous recognition from numerous domestic and international customers as well as official authorities but has also consistently met its business plans and attained its performance targets. YinoRui is steadily moving forward with a brand-new look.

Of course, we mustn't let victory go to our heads. Instead, we need to remain soberly aware that today’s society is both brimming with opportunities and fraught with challenges. The heparin industry is undergoing a profound transformation driven by the times. It’s only natural that in such an environment, companies will rise or fall according to their strengths and weaknesses. Against the backdrop of increasingly stringent quality standards set by both domestic and international customers and the nation’s rigorous requirements for pharmaceutical companies, the process of sifting out the weak from the strong is bound to become an inevitable reality in the heparin industry. Only those who can persevere to the very end will emerge as true industry leaders. As members of the heparin community, we remain firmly committed to our beliefs and hold fast to our core principles. We aspire high while staying grounded in reality, making the enduring survival and success of Yinuorui our ultimate goal.

The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out: Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, and the principal social contradiction in our country has transformed into the contradiction between the people’s ever-growing need for a better life and unbalanced and inadequate development. As pharmaceutical professionals, we feel an even greater sense of responsibility—and we are fully confident that we can meet the strong aspirations of the broad masses of the people for physical health.

As members of Yinuorui, we remain true to our original aspiration, keep our mission firmly in mind, continue to strive relentlessly, and bravely take on responsibilities, contributing our part to building the glorious edifice of Yinuorui.
