The Party branch of Qianchao Intelligent Manufacturing in Wuhu adheres to the integration of Party building with production and operations, transforming political leadership into practical actions that enhance the company’s core competitiveness. Driven by the “red engine,” the branch has propelled technological innovation, digital and intelligent upgrades, and green development, delivering impressive performance results and setting a new benchmark in the field of intelligent manufacturing. As a result, it has been awarded the title of "Advanced Grassroots Party Organization of Wanxiang."

Cultivating the Soul Through Thought: The “Three Studies, Three Enhancements” Activate the Gene of Struggle

The branch consistently upholds theoretical study as the foundation for strengthening our roots and cultivating our essence, regularly conducting “First Agenda” study sessions (covering topics such as Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Party, and important speeches by General Secretary Xi Jinping). We are promoting the series of activities titled “Study ‘Leading Tide,’ Strive for ‘Three Innovations,’” and studying the spirit of the Party class delivered by the Party Secretary and Chairman of the Group on July 1st and the speech given on August 7th. We hold ourselves to the standards of being “outstanding Party members in the new era” and “excellent workers under the General Secretary’s guidance,” and we continue to deepen the substance of the “Three Studies and Three Enhancements” campaign (studying theory to strengthen ideological awareness and enhance political quality; studying policies to clarify thinking and improve professional competence; studying regulations to transform work styles and boost job performance effectiveness). We guide employees to grasp the core essence of these ideas, integrate them into their actual work, and ensure that their learning, reflection, and practice truly resonate with their hearts and yield tangible results. This approach inspires all staff members to embrace a spirit of daring to explore, taking bold action, and pursuing innovation and strength.

Guided by strong ideological leadership and enhanced by robust capabilities, the company’s Party members are taking the lead in tackling technical challenges and demonstrating exemplary roles in key areas such as digital and intelligent transformation and green manufacturing. They actively foster cross-departmental collaboration and have formed “digital and intelligent operations teams” together with young, promising talents. As a result, they have successfully developed an intelligent production scheduling system, significantly improving on-time order delivery rates and production efficiency. Moreover, they spearheaded the establishment of a leading group for building green factories, deeply integrating smart manufacturing with green production to create a comprehensive, end-to-end green management system covering R&D, production, and logistics—thus forging a path toward low-carbon, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly smart manufacturing.

Strengthening the Talent Base: “Dual Cultivation” Builds a Core Team

The key to career success lies in people. The Party branch has vigorously implemented the “Party Building + Talent” initiative, with the core of this initiative being the “dual cultivation” mechanism—cultivating backbone personnel into Party members and cultivating Party members into managers. Centered around this core principle, the branch has established a comprehensive talent-development network: adhering to the standards of “speaking truthfully, delivering concrete results, thinking critically, and being capable of solving problems,” it actively attracts skilled and core talent; aiming to cultivate “good Party members for the new era” and “excellent workers recommended by the General Secretary,” it assigns expert Party members to provide mentorship and guidance to young backbones, thus building a succession pipeline; it sends outstanding talents to key projects for hands-on experience, enabling them to enhance their capabilities through real-world practice; and it regularly organizes professional training sessions, specialized lectures, and exchange seminars, offering employees diverse learning opportunities. This “combination of measures” has created a multi-level talent-development system that provides clear direction for talent growth and ample room for development, thereby providing a solid foundation for building a team of highly competent professionals dedicated to product innovation and quality management.

In addition, the branch is accelerating the construction of the Wuhu Sub-center of the National-level Enterprise Technology Center, deepening industry-academia-research collaboration, and promoting the deep integration of universities, research institutions, and enterprises. This will provide a broader platform for talent, truly enabling “each person to fully realize their potential, talents to be put to optimal use, achievements to yield tangible rewards, and rewards to bring genuine fulfillment,” thereby allowing the vibrant source of creativity, entrepreneurship, and innovation to flow freely and abundantly.

Smart Manufacturing Boosts Quality: The "Red Engine" Drives a Leap in Performance

By leveraging Party building to empower production and operations and turning it into visible productivity, the Party branches set the direction, oversee the big picture, and ensure effective implementation. They fully harness the role of grassroots Party organizations as battle fortresses, leading the entire company to focus on three core priorities: achieving breakthroughs in key technologies to capture the high-end market, driving digital and intelligent upgrades to enhance competitiveness, and building new advantages through green manufacturing. By focusing on specifics, delving deeply into issues, and delivering concrete results, the Party branches have delivered an outstanding performance.

In 2024, the company achieved completion rates of 131.9%, 142.72%, and 207.95% respectively for output value, revenue, and total profit. The company’s overall labor productivity increased by 15.67% year-on-year, and multiple key indicators reached all-time highs. The company invested 1.5 billion yuan to advance the R&D and manufacturing project for 9 million constant-velocity drive shafts annually. It has now established 57 intelligent production lines, with a 100% equipment connectivity rate and an online monitoring coverage rate of 95% for process parameters. The application of intelligent vertical warehouses combined with “aisle stacker cranes + AGVs” has boosted warehouse space utilization by nearly five times and improved inventory turnover by 40%. The QRQC rapid response mechanism at the production command center has significantly reduced the time required to address abnormalities, earning high recognition from “9N” customers. Through the construction of a solar power generation system, the company saves over 500,000 kWh of electricity annually. Behind these impressive results lies the company’s strong endorsement as a provincial-level innovative enterprise.

Party building serves as the guiding force, rallying innovative momentum and driving intelligent manufacturing upgrades through the “red engine.” Standing at a new starting point, the Party Branch of Wuhu Qianchao Intelligent Manufacturing will adopt an even more pragmatic approach and take firmer steps to implement the requirements set forth by Lu Weiding, Secretary of the Group’s Party Committee and Chairman, in his Party class on July 1 this year—striving for excellence, pursuing outstanding performance, and aiming for brilliance. We will not only be “practitioners” of intelligent manufacturing but also “leaders” in setting industry standards. With our robust capabilities in independent innovation and the soft power of integrating Party building into our operations, we will contribute an even stronger, all-encompassing force to China’s intelligent manufacturing!
