We are actively preparing for the establishment of overseas R&D centers to support the overseas business strategy of independent automobile products and make use of foreign advanced technology. In addition, FAW also has R&D institutions such as casting technology center, mold technology center and vehicle electronics technology center.
The Technology Center of FAW Group Company is the first batch of national technology centers recognized by the State Economic and Trade Commission and other departments. It integrates scientific research and product development. It has the characteristics of large scale, strong core competence, advanced research methods and strong technical strength. It is the research and development and test base of FAW's independent automobile products. (Changchun headquarters of FAW Technology Center covers an area of 368,000 square meters, with a construction area of130,800 square meters and fixed assets of 2 billion yuan. There are 2829 employees, including 68 doctoral students, 645 master students and 2 postdoctoral workstations. Through great efforts in R&D capacity-building, we have the independent development capability of core automotive technologies such as independent commercial vehicles, passenger cars, light vehicles and mini-vehicles, powertrains and automotive electronics. In order to better implement the enterprise innovation strategy, unify thinking, improve the independent innovation ability, and clarify the independent innovation strategy of the group company, FAW Group Company compiled the Medium and Long-term Science and Technology Development Plan of China FAW Group Company (2008 -2020).

Extension of completion of faw-Volkswagen Foshan factory
"The approval of the Foshan factory is still in progress, and the approval will definitely come down. I don't want to say anything else. " A public figure who did not want to be named was deeply jealous of the alleged "unapproved construction" of FAW-Volkswagen Foshan factory.
"The FAW-Volkswagen Foshan project faces some difficulties, precisely because the development of China's automobile industry is in a period of change and rise, and foreign-funded factories need to adapt to the current situation." An insider close to Foshan government officials relayed to Netease the views of relevant leaders on the "suspected unapproved construction" of the factory.
Substantial progress has been made in "blocking"
It is generally believed in the industry that the FAW-Volkswagen Foshan project was not finally approved because the pre-planning of the new factory did not cover the two essential contents of "independent brand and new energy vehicle" required by the state. In this regard, a public official once said privately, "We will definitely find ways to plug these two loopholes as soon as possible."
At present, it seems that the work of filling these two loopholes has started and made progress. During the Shanghai Auto Show, Su Weiming, executive vice president of Volkswagen China, and Yang Meihong, vice president of Volkswagen China, both admitted that they would launch their own brands.
Previously, Ni Zeng, president and CEO of Audi AG (China), publicly stated that "Volkswagen is planning to develop a brand only for the China market, and is negotiating with its partners in China, and the price of the new brand car will be less than 8,000 euros". Ni also said that the China government has been asking for the launch of China-oriented brands for some time. In this situation, all foreign joint ventures in China, including FAW-Volkswagen and Shanghai Volkswagen, are required to develop brands for the China market. 20 1 1 year is the first year of the twelfth five-year plan. The Twelfth Five-Year Plan has determined the basic policy of changing the mode of economic development. Economic restructuring and investment in fixed assets are the main driving forces of the heavy truck industry, and their position and role in the national economy are increasingly apparent. The independent heavy truck in China, represented by faw liberation, has made great progress.
According to the data released by China Automobile Industry Association, in 20 10, the sales of heavy trucks (including incomplete vehicles and semi-trailer tractors) in China exceeded one million for the first time, reaching 10 17400. Among them, China faw liberation sold more than 230,000 vehicles, accounting for 22.67% of the total sales of heavy trucks. It is worth noting that in addition to the increase in sales volume, China FAW has also made outstanding achievements in independent innovation. 20 1 1, 1 On June 4th, 2008, China FAW won the first prize of national scientific and technological progress in 20 10, which made China high-quality heavy-duty truck board the highest scientific and technological podium for the first time.
As a large-scale state-owned enterprise built during the First Five-Year Plan period, "born with autonomy, longer than autonomy" is the best interpretation of China FAW. For China FAW, "independence" is an innate mission and responsibility. Adhering to this mission, China FAW is constantly seeking technological breakthroughs to lead China's national automobile industry forward with the gesture of raising the flag.
With the development of large-scale fixed investment in infrastructure construction, the demand for construction vehicles such as heavy trucks is increasing. For enterprises, independent research and development and production of high-end heavy trucks to realize the transformation and upgrading of heavy truck products from low-end to high-end has become the top priority of development. This can not only meet the needs of national economic construction, but also be the key to China's goal of becoming a powerful automobile country, which is regarded as an important symbol of national scientific and technological innovation and independent development of automobile industry.
For China FAW, it has achieved fruitful results in the field of heavy trucks, and its considerable sales volume and high-end technology have added chips to China's national industry. In fact, the good start of the liberation of J6 in 20 1 1 came from the efforts and solid foundation accumulation of China FAW in recent years. On 20 10, China faw made people feel "awesome". It constantly polishes its name and interprets the connotation of responsibility with one miracle after another.
20 10 At the Beijing Auto Show in April, FAW officially released a brand-new brand strategy with the connotation of "quality, technology and innovation", which opened a new chapter in the development of China FAW's independent products and made people feel the belief of China FAW people in independence and courage. In September, the opening ceremony of the 3rd China Automobile Design Competition and China Automobile Design Rookie Class was grandly held in Beijing, which attracted extensive attention from domestic and foreign automobile industry peers, and once again demonstrated the eldest son's feelings of China FAW taking the responsibility of corporate social citizenship and continuously discovering, cultivating and conveying talents for China automobile industry. The 65438+2065 438+000 China FAW No.1 1 10,000 off-line ceremony was held in Changchun, which showed the independent strength of China FAW people and injected a strong impetus into the development of independent brands.
If the award of Jiefang J6 shows the cutting-edge technology of China FAW commercial vehicle, then Pentium B70 won the biathlon championship, which is the best portrayal of the excellent quality of China FAW passenger car. According to the 20 10 China new car quality research (IQS) report and the 20 10 China automobile performance, operation and design research (APEAL) report released by J.D.Power, the Pentium B70 won the title of entry-level high-end mid-level car, which fully reflected the quality, performance and customer satisfaction of the Pentium B70.
It can be said that holding high national brands and developing national automobile industry is an automobile complex jointly built by several generations of FAW people, and it is constantly transformed into independent innovation capability. With the continuous development and comprehensive progress of science and technology, China FAW has built its independent innovation capability with competitive advantage and complete system support. China FAW, which has independent innovation technology, wins by quality and sales volume, which is a magic weapon for the national automobile industry to participate in international competition.
From the perspective of national strategy, the Twelfth Five-Year Plan period is a crucial period for the country to build a well-off society in an all-round way, deepen reform and opening up, and accelerate the transformation of economic development mode. In the first year of the Twelfth Five-Year Plan, China FAW embarked on its fourth pioneering journey at a new historical starting point. China FAW said that in the next five years, it will achieve sales of more than 5 million vehicles, including 2 million independently, with a market share of 20%. The clear goal of the 12th Five-Year Plan has enabled FAW people in China to undertake their own mission and responsibility, and vowed to make autonomy synonymous with high quality. It is like the standard-bearer of China's national automobile industry, leading the way forward and letting people see the future and hope.
