In high energy scattering, the multi-production process is unique in its relevance to the total cross section and in its global properties, such as rapidity and other kinematic distributions. If there is a hard interaction, the jet rate and structure is a good arena for perturbative quantum chromodynamics. However, once any hadron is specified, its properties and structure must make sense, while the global and/or perturbative chromodynamic mechanism still can put important constraints. The relation of the hadron’s properties and structure with its production cross section, distribution etc. can be much more complex than its decay width. On the one hand there are many difficulties and challenges in the calculations, while on the other hand, the production process provides a unique way to study the details of properties and structure of the hadron, which is beyond the approach of its decay process. Here I review our works on such topics in recent years, mainly on the multi-quark state production in multi-production processes and the Bethe-Salpeter wave function in exclusive processes. For the former, I emphasize the unitarity of the hadronization process and relevant models, so that almost no multi-quark state is observed in multi-production processes. I also address how to calculate hadron molecule production in multi-production processes. The most recently observed T+cc is also stated with its relevance to colour and baryon number fluctuation of the preconfinement clusters. For the latter, I emphasize the Dirac structure of the hadron-quark coupling vertex.
