From November 16th to 19th, the 2025 GRIMPDAY CHINA International Rope Technology Exchange Competition was held in Ruyuan Yao Autonomous County, Shaoguan, aptly named the "World Yao Hometown · Healing Sanctuary". Hailili Group's "Jiaolong" was invited to serve as the official rope supply brand for the GRIMPDAY international competition, providing the participating teams with professional, high-quality rope rescue equipment and ensuring the event ran smoothly.

The competition was hosted by the Ruyuan Yao Autonomous County Committee and County Government, with joint support and guidance from the China Fire Protection Association, the Guangdong Provincial Fire and Rescue Corps, and the China Fire and Rescue Institute. It attracted professional firefighting teams from countries including France, Belgium, Ireland, and Spain, alongside elite domestic rescue teams from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shaanxi, Yunnan, Chongqing, Guangdong, and other regions. Rescue forces from China and abroad competed on the same stage, fostering international exchange of rescue techniques.

Attendees included leaders such as: Niu Yueguang, Vice President of the China Fire Protection Association; Jiang Honglin, Standing Committee Member of the Shaoguan Municipal Committee and Executive Vice Mayor; Zhu Guoying, Deputy Head of the Guangdong Provincial Fire and Rescue Corps; Chen Dachuan, Director of the Standing Committee of the Shaoguan Municipal People's Congress and Secretary of the Ruyuan Yao Autonomous County Committee; and Liu Xiaodong, Head of the Shaoguan Municipal Fire and Rescue Division.

This competition emphasized practicality and innovation, with core characteristics being "full-scenario coverage, high-difficulty stacking, and strong technical integration". It featured realistic scenarios like "Cliff Rescue" and "Gorge Rescue", comprehensively testing the teams' integrated application of rope techniques in complex environments and putting rescue equipment through an "international trial."

As a key piece of equipment, the "Jiaolong" ropes provided competitors with solid and reliable life protection thanks to their superior performance, which includes ultra-high strength and stability, precise zero-slip control, a lightweight overall design, and a comfortable, hand-conforming grip. A foreign competitor remarked after the event: "During the competition, the robust performance of the 'Jiaolong' rope rescue equipment kept me fully focused and felt very reassuring." A Chinese competitor also exclaimed: "'Jiaolong' performed excellently in the competition. The domestic rope rescue equipment was a great surprise to us!"
