As a representative of the national industry and commerce in modern China, the Rong family has been enthusiastic about social welfare undertakings while setting up the world-famous flour industry and textile industry, and enjoys a high reputation in Jiangnan area and even the whole country. From 65438 to 0947, the private Jiangnan University founded by Rong's family once had famous scholars such as Qian Mu and Jin Shanbao. In the early days of the People's Republic of China, a new generation of Rongshi enterprises, represented by Rong Yiren, made important contributions to the country's successful socialist transformation. After the reform and opening up, Mr. Rong Yiren founded "CITIC Company" and made great achievements in the cause of socialist modernization. Since then, Mr. Rong Yiren and his beloved son, Mr. Rong Zhijian, Chairman of the Board of Directors of CITIC Pacific Group, have made immortal contributions to the national economic construction while continuing to care for and support the educational cause of the motherland. Mr. Rong Yiren served as honorary chairman of Jiangnan University for a long time, and donated money to build a "public library" and set up a "public scholarship" of Jiangnan University. In 2007, Mr. Rong Zhijian, Chairman of the Board of Directors of CITIC Pacific Group, donated another 60 million yuan to support Jiangnan University, which has been the key construction university of the national 2 1 1 project, and its key majors are equipped with the "985" construction platform.
