Premier Li Keqiang traveled 60 kilometers to visit Haier refrigerator inter-connected factory at Sino-German Ecopark in Qingdao, East China's Shandong province, on June 2.

Zhang Ruimin, chairman of Haier Group Board, said that now everyone can be a maker at Haier. The factory is not only a manufacturer, but also an industrial internet platform open for global makers, he added.

Zhang said that in just a few years, Haier Group has spawned four unicorn businesses and 21 gazelle businesses, providing a large number of jobs.

The Premier talked about the connotation of "Haier", which consists of two Chinese characters: "Hai" meaning oceans, and "Er" representing every individual.

The Premier said although each individual has limited wisdom, all minds together could create anything with incredible power. Premier Li explained it is like how rivers, creeks, streams all fuse into one spectacular ocean.

Haier has long been a well-known enterprise, which hopefully will follow trends of the time, continue learning and innovating, and set an example in mass entrepreneurship and innovation for other big businesses, the Premier said.
