Zhu Qingbao made a thematic report centering on "the connotation and value of the era of Rong's entrepreneurship". He shared his thoughts and understanding on the spiritual origin, core connotation and era value of Rong's entrepreneurship, which is mainly characterized by "plum culture", from three parts: "a cold plum comes with proud snow", "bow your head to worship plum blossoms in your life" and "a plum blossoms will benefit future generations". He pointed out that Rong's entrepreneurial spirit originated from the characteristics of "refinement" and "honesty" of traditional Confucian businessmen, and was closely related to the cultural characteristics of "morality" and "flexibility" of the region. At the same time, it was also deeply influenced by the enlightenment trend of the times and contained a strong sense of mission and social responsibility. Specifically, the Rong's entrepreneurial spirit characterized by "plum culture", among which the typical characteristics such as "being the first in the world in spring" and "being the first in the world for a long time" are embodied in the "pioneering consciousness of pioneering and enterprising, daring to be the first", "the open mind of courageously seeking perfection and learning from the west", "the business philosophy of being honest and honest", "the family and country feelings of serving the country and benefiting the people through industry". To deeply study and explain the era value of Rong's entrepreneurship, we can understand it from the aspects of "daring to be the first and striving for excellence" in business and "upholding morality, pragmatism and upholding justice and interests". This is of great significance to promoting the inheritance of Jiangnan Industrial and commercial culture, promoting economic and social innovation and development, and helping Rong's entrepreneurship glow with new vitality in the new era.
