March 20, 2025 — "If you were a drop of water, would you moisten an inch of land?" This poignant question from The Diary of Lei Feng resonated deeply at HL as employees gathered under clear skies and a gentle spring breeze to launch the 2025 "Sowing Dreams, Growing Together" tree-planting campaign. Coinciding with China’s nationwide observance of Lei Fen’s spirit, the event merged ecological action with Party-building themes, embodying the company’s commitment to social responsibility and sustainable growth.
President Bao Guangli, General Manager Zheng Wenkui, and Labor Union Chairman Liu Xingmin led the initiative, joined by Party members wearing their emblems and employee volunteers. At the planting site, teams worked in seamless coordination—wielding shovels to dig, steadying saplings in soil, and carrying buckets to water the young trees. Their efforts not only revitalized the landscape but also painted a vivid tableau of Lei Feng's spirit in action, inspiring camaraderie and dedication among participants.
President Bao planted the first sapling, symbolizing HL’s pledge to thrive like a resilient pine amid market challenges while fostering innovation and societal value. The choice of tree species carried profound meaning: Pinus bungeana, with its evergreen elegance, reflects the company’s pursuit of excellence and perseverance; drought-resistant Pinus tabuliformis mirrors adaptability in volatile environments. Meanwhile, grapevines were sown as a metaphor for collective success, envisioning future harvests as a testament to unity and shared prosperity.

Beyond ecological impact, the event strengthened team cohesion and reinforced green development principles. HL vows to leverage this milestone to deepen its sustainability efforts, uphold Lei Feng’s legacy of service, and contribute to a greener, brighter future. As saplings take root, so too does the company’s resolve to grow responsibly, innovate boldly, and nurture both nature and community.
