At the end of 2009, Jiang Zhijun returned to China with his entrepreneurial dream, and visited Guangzhou, Shanghai, Suzhou, Wuxi, Nanjing, Yixing, Taizhou, and many cities. After comprehensive consideration of all aspects, Taizhou was chosen resolutely. He said that compared with other cities, China Medical City focuses on the field of medicine, with a professional team, clear direction, clear thinking, and more importantly, tailor-made for companies in the early stage of business, including major project awards, standard factory discounts, tax contributions A package of support policies including incentives, talent incentives, innovation incentives, etc., are deeply attractive to entrepreneurs.

The park specially arranges a special person to provide one-on-one caring services to help us connect in advance, standardize the construction of the plant according to the requirements, prepare relevant materials, and complete various certification procedures. We do not need us at all. Worry about it." Jiang Zhijun said that during the process of new drug registration and application, the staff of the park also accompanied the whole process. At any stage, which procedures should be handled, they would directly help to complete the procedures, and they also traveled to the province for repeated docking, which made the company feel very at ease.
