On March 15 this year, the website of the Supervision Department of the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection released a message: Xu Jianyi, chairman and party secretary of China FAW Group Corporation, is suspected of serious violation of discipline and law, and is currently under investigation. Since then, the post of chairman of FAW Group has been vacant. Zhu Yanfeng, the current deputy secretary of Jilin Provincial Party Committee, served as the chairman of FAW Group before 2007 and has profound management experience in the automobile industry. After the anti-corruption rectification of FAW Group, the call for him to "return" to the automobile industry is gradually rising. But at the same time, there is a saying in the industry that the chairman of FAW Group will come from outside FAW.
On the other hand, Dongfeng Motor Group, like FAW Group, has also experienced a round of anti-corruption rectification. Xu Ping, the current chairman of Dongfeng Motor Group, is qualified for the post of chairman of FAW Group in terms of work level and corporate governance experience. And Zhu Yanfeng's "comeback" this time shows that the higher authorities have full trust in his past experience and management ability.
