"I like going to the construction site. To assure the project quality, the reasonable use of resources, control of costs and the completion of construction on schedule, we must have a deep understanding of project nature and needs of potential users so as to provide a comprehensive operation solution instead of only selling a machine or two" , says Ye Jingsheng, Sales Representative of Volvo CE
