Second, the famous philanthropist, patriot and outstanding national industrialist Rong and his brother Mr. Rong Desheng founded Rong Brothers Industrial Company, which is one of the famous enterprises in modern China. The two brothers devoted their lives to saving the country through industry, and they have the reputation of "king of cotton yarn and king of flour". While the industry is successful, the Rong brothers are also committed to education and public welfare in their hometown. They successively established public primary schools, competitive girls' schools, public industrial and commercial secondary schools (later changed to public technical secondary schools) and Dagong Library in Wuxi and Changzhou, and raised funds to build 88 bridges. 1929, he bought land and built a garden in Xiaoxiao Mountain, Wuxi. Rong Desheng (1875- 1952), a native of Wuxi, Jiangsu, is a famous philanthropist and national industrialist.

1in the winter of 937, the Japanese invaders occupied Shanghai, and the land of Jiangnan fell one after another. Some Rongshi enterprises were bombed by the Japanese army, some were occupied by the Japanese army, and only the factories in the concession maintained production. In May of the following year, Rong Desheng came to Shanghai from Hankou and lived in seclusion. He only searches for ancient books, calligraphy and painting, hoping that the situation will improve. 194 1 year, Japanese businessmen were salivating at Rong's cotton mill, and Wang puppet Ministry sent staff to discuss with Rong Desheng, asking him to sell the No.1 and No.8 factories to Toyota cotton mill in Japan, but was immediately rebuffed. Chu Minyi, the foreign minister of Wang Puppet, had to come to Shanghai in person and invited Rong Desheng for an interview in a fake international hotel. From the two sons to the future, it shows that the father will not change his original intention and will not sell the factory and personality. Chu Minyi said brazenly, "Half of China has been given to the Japanese, so why apply for two new factories?" And threatened: "Don't eat, don't drink, don't toast!" Rong Desheng listened and said with awe, "I would rather die than surrender."
