On a deep autumn morning at the Lianxin Casting Sand Group's production base in Zhangwu, Liaoning, when the first ray of sunlight penetrated the glass curtain wall of the production workshop, the improved pearl sand regeneration equipment from the equipment R&D department was emitting a rhythmic buzzing. Qi Jiqiang bent down to observe the quality data of the latest batch of regenerated sand, and the bright light in his eyes reflected the blue light points dancing on the display screen. This innovative project, which lasted for two months, finally met the expected standards in the fifth process iteration experiment. At this moment, this young equipment technician, who has been rooted in the Lianxin Casting Sand Group for many years, gently brushed his calloused palm over the regenerated sand sample, as if he had touched the future of the green transformation of China's casting industry.

In the display cabinet of the equipment R&D department's office, a new generation of pearl sand regeneration sample sand produced after the improvement and optimization of the regeneration equipment by Qi Jiqiang's team is showcased. These regenerated sand particles, treated with special processes, are round and smooth as new, forming a stark contrast with the untreated waste sand beside them. "Through the optimization and transformation of the regeneration equipment, the indicators of mud content, acid consumption, and burning reduction of pearl regenerated sand have significantly improved. Especially after the transformation, the strength of pearl regenerated sand has also been significantly enhanced.

The road of innovation has never been smooth sailing. Qi Jiqiang faced severe challenges in the pearl sand regeneration project. In the early stages of the experiment, various technical problems followed one after another, and the quality of the regenerated pearl sand was unstable, failing to meet the expected performance indicators. Faced with these setbacks, Qi Jiqiang did not retreat at all; he plunged into the workshop, continuously adjusting the experimental plan and trying different process parameters and material formulas. He enjoyed it, savoring the growth and progress brought by each experiment. In his view, every failure is a step towards success, and resilience in the face of setbacks is his motto on the road of innovation.

In the most difficult moments, Qi Jiqiang felt strong support from his team. The higher-ups not only encouraged him spiritually but also provided comprehensive support in resource allocation and technical guidance. At the same time, to ensure the best results of the experiments, Qi Jiqiang traveled back and forth between the Zhangwu Group headquarters and the production base in Anqiu, Shandong, conducting experiments. The experimental personnel at both production bases tirelessly assisted him in collecting experimental data, debugging equipment, and tackling various technical challenges. Everyone worked together, striving for the success of the pearl sand regeneration project. This sense of team cohesion and collaborative spirit made Qi Jiqiang no longer feel lonely in the face of difficulties; instead, he regarded it as a rare gain, motivating him to keep moving forward.

Qi Jiqiang deeply understands that the achievement of this innovative breakthrough is inseparable from the platform provided by the company. Lianxin Casting Sand Group has always attached great importance to innovation, actively encouraging employees to carry out various innovative activities, providing rich resources and broad development space for employees. The cooperation of higher-ups and colleagues from relevant departments is also a key factor for the project's success. During the project advancement, there was close communication and collaboration between departments, breaking down barriers and forming a strong innovative synergy.

Today, Qi Jiqiang's pearl sand regeneration project has achieved significant results. The performance of the regenerated pearl sand is stable, not only meeting the high standards required by the casting industry but also greatly reducing production costs and minimizing environmental impact. This innovative achievement has brought economic and social benefits to Lianxin Casting Sand Group and provided new ideas and solutions for the sustainable development of the entire casting industry.

In the face of honor, Qi Jiqiang did not become arrogant or complacent. He stated that he would continue to work hard, focusing on every meticulous task, and continuously upgrading and innovating. He understands that innovation is the eternal driving force for enterprise development, and only by continuously innovating can one remain invincible in fierce market competition. In his future work, he will continue to leverage his professional advantages, lead the team to carry out more innovative projects, and contribute more wisdom and strength to the development of Lianxin Casting Sand Group.

From the technological breakthrough in the waste sand pile to the persistent collaborative innovation, Qi Jiqiang uses the spirit of resilience to advance the evolution of pearl sand regeneration. In the blueprint of this "innovation star," each grain of regenerated sand is a flowing chip, carrying the password of traditional industry transformation and upgrading. In the innovative rainforest created by Lianxin Casting Sand Group, countless "Qi Jiqiang" are breaking ground, nurturing industrial miracles with craftsmanship as the soil and technology as the dew.
