the "watermelon frost king"

Guilin Sanjin Pharmaceutical Co.Ltd(002275) was founded in 1967. Its predecessor was Guilin traditional Chinese medicine factory. It is one of the earliest manufacturers of modern traditional Chinese medicine preparations in China. It is also a leading pharmaceutical enterprise in Guangxi. It has Sanjin tablets, Guilin Watermelon cream and other modern traditional Chinese medicine products famous outside China.

In a media interview in 2018, Zou Jieming summed up his 50 years with Sanjin in this sentence: "in fact, I only did one thing, that is to explore the road of innovating modern traditional Chinese medicine with Guilin Sanjin Pharmaceutical Co.Ltd(002275) ."

The new drug "Sanjin tablet" put into production in 1971 is a new traditional Chinese medicine developed by him on the basis of visiting Chinese Medicine Classics and folk prescriptions and inspired by occasional observations.

In early 1970, Zou Jieming, who was on a business trip to Guangzhou, met an old man with several bags of Medicine on his way. The old man said that the effect of this medicine on urinary tract infection was very good, which made Zou Jieming move in his heart. With the consent of the old man, he checked several packages of medicinal materials. Unexpectedly, he found that the three main drugs were the same as a decoction for the treatment of urinary tract infection.

After returning to Guilin, Zou Jieming, who had grasped the signs of research, went to Yaoshan and Wanfu road to collect medicinal materials, burned them with charcoal and boiled them in an iron pot, and developed Sanjin tablets, a good medicine for the treatment of urinary tract infection, in three years. The invention of the drug won the scientific and technological achievement award of the National Science Conference in 1978. Guilin traditional Chinese medicine factory and Zou Jieming gained a reputation in the same industry in China.

Zou Jieming was not complacent about the success of Sanjin tablets. His eyes focused on another ancient medicine - Watermelon cream.

Watermelon cream is a traditional Chinese medicine with a history of more than 200 years for the treatment of oral and throat diseases. Due to the low frost extraction rate and long production cycle of traditional technology, it can not be mass produced. In 1978, Zou Jieming and his assistant began the process transformation of watermelon frost. After 8 years, by 1986, the snow-white watermelon cream was successfully produced under the new technology developed by Zou Jieming's team.

The processing technology transformation of watermelon frost has been completed, which completely solves the three problems of large pollution, long production cycle and high cost of traditional hair frost. Watermelon frost production began to enter the industrial era. Zou Jieming is also known as the "watermelon frost king".

The advent of two original products, Sanjin tablet and watermelon cream, has made Guilin traditional Chinese medicine factory usher in Nirvana and rebirth. Under the promotion of Zou Jieming, the Guilin Sanjin Pharmaceutical Co.Ltd(002275) pharmaceutical group company reorganized based on Guilin traditional Chinese medicine factory was established in March 1994. In 2001, Guilin Sanjin Pharmaceutical Co.Ltd(002275) Pharmaceutical Group was changed to Guilin Sanjin Pharmaceutical Co.Ltd(002275) and landed on Shenzhen Stock Exchange on July 10, 2009.

"Innovation is not only the core factor for enterprises to obtain competitive advantage, but also the most important ability factor for enterprise development." This is Zou Jieming's summary of his career for more than 40 years. It is precisely because he took the lead in continuous innovation that " Guilin Sanjin Pharmaceutical Co.Ltd(002275) " has gradually grown from a small backward traditional Chinese medicine workshop to today's listed company.

At present, Sanjin has more than 200 registered varieties and 13 drug dosage forms, and 42 exclusive characteristic varieties independently developed by Guilin Watermelon cream, watermelon cream throat moistening tablets, Sanjin tablets, Naomaitai capsules, etc. After years of efforts, Sanjin has formed strong professional and market advantages in throat, oral medicine and urinary system medicine, and its representative products Sanjin watermelon cream series and Sanjin tablets have been in the forefront of similar Chinese patent medicines in China for many years.
