With the rise of China’s automobile industry, the global “depth” has soared.
In 2023, China’s automobile production and sales exceeded the historic mark of 30 million vehicles for the first time, and surpassed Japan with an export volume of 4.
91 million vehicles to become the world’s number one automobile exporter.
“China’s new energy vehicles have developed rapidly, ranking first in the world in sales for nine consecutive years, and have become the leading force in the electrified transformation of the global automobile industry.
” Wang Xia, president of the Automobile Industry Branch of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, strongly refuted a small number of foreign accusations of subsidies, overcapacity and low-price dumping of China’s new energy vehicles with facts and data, and stressed the rise of China’s new energy vehicles.
it is based on advanced technology and user value, and it is a natural choice for the market economy to survive the fittest.
In the course of this magnificent era, Shenzhen has taken the lead and demonstrated first.
Data show that in 2023, the penetration rate of new energy passenger vehicles in Shenzhen has reached 67.
9 percent, ranking first in the world.
the output of new energy vehicles has reached 350000, an increase of 15 percent over the same period last year, making Shenzhen the “first city of new energy vehicles”.
With a marked increase in global depth, Shenzhen is accelerating towards a new generation of first-class automobile city.
” Luo Kuang Hao, vice mayor of Shenzhen Municipal people’s Government, shared the latest industrial development in his speech at the opening of the conference: the output value of Shenzhen automobile manufacturing industry in 2023 was 342.
93 billion yuan, an increase of 58.
3 percent over the same period last year, and the output of new energy vehicles was 1.
73 million, an increase of 98 percent over the same period last year.
Shenzhen has formed a complete automobile industry chain and a perfect industrial ecosystem covering complete vehicles, power batteries, electric motor control, self-driving, intelligent cockpit, charging infrastructure, automotive aftermarket and other fields.
In addition, Shenzhen has also taken the lead in realizing the full electrification of public transportation, rental and ride-hailing, and has taken the lead in the construction of charging facilities.
In 2024, the changes in the new energy and smart car industries continued to deepen.
Facing science and technology, all kinds of “cool techs” are changing with each passing day, promoting the comprehensive deepening of competition for the performance, function and experience of automotive products, and the fancy “volume”.
Facing the future, the high-quality development of China’s automobile industry has begun to lead the global industrial transformation.
at the same time, in the context of the increasingly complex international environment, facing new challenges and uncertainties.
facing the market, increasingly fierce competition pushes the industry into a “reconstruction period”.
Industry, automobile industry have taken the lead in exploring the way forward, and continue to compete in the fields of user experience, product marketing, market layout and so on.
Science and technology, innovative fertile ground for enabling industry to “compete” to lead, science and technology is not only the innovative ability to create an excellent user experience of new energy and smart cars, but also the core competence of China’s automobile industry to lead the global industrial transformation and participate in global competition.
“Shenji 9031 is the world’s first 5nm car gauge chip.
” Li Bin, founder, chairman and CEO of Weilai, stressed the importance of self-research.
“in terms of transformer algorithm, our performance is 6.
5times that of the strongest chip in the world today.
” According to Lei Jun, executive director, founder, chairman and CEO of Xiaomi Group, Xiaomi locked up 88000 cars and delivered more than 15000 in the first month on the market, followed by a guarantee of 100000 and a sprint of 120000 for the whole year.
Lei Jun, who also emphasizes the self-development of smart driving technology, believes that Xiaomi’s success is due to breakthroughs in core technologies and profound research insights into users.
“Chinese speed is critical to Mercedes-Benz innovation,” said Olifu, senior executive vice president of Mercedes-Benz (China) Investment Co., Ltd., and head of Mercedes-Benz China R & D and procurement.
Mercedes-Benz R & D network in China is accelerating the development of artificial intelligence, vehicle-road coordination and self-driving.
“if you want to study cars, there is no better market than China!” In the future chapter, the new pattern of “the second half” falls to the ground, large models and the whole scene fly together intelligently, full stack self-research, or alliance, and China’s automobile industry creates a solid science and technology tree base for science and technology.
The rapid deployment of cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence has won a significant advantage for future-oriented global competition and leadership.
Gu Weihao, co-founder and CEO of Maomo Zhihang, said that at present, high-speed driving aids have run 160 million kilometers on Chinese roads, with more than 40 percent of users.
He believes that the technical driver of intelligent driving has changed from software to data: “there is only one law of artificial intelligence, that is, ‘scale’.
There must be a large amount of data and a larger model in order to ‘work miracles’.
” Yuanrong Qixing CEO Zhou Guang said that the future car of “AI 3.
0″ will be a single large model with the ability to recognize natural language and the physical world, thus realizing “end-to-end” self-driving.
China has an advantage in self-driving data and has the opportunity to lead the development of end-to-end self-driving.
In addition to the large model, there are also manufacturers who make use of more comprehensive scientific research and engineering system capabilities to actively create “full scene” intelligence, and thus successfully create a series of high-end “popular style” products whose sales volume exceeds that of traditional international luxury brands.
Yu Chengdong, managing director of Huawei, chairman of terminal BG and chairman of intelligent car solution BU, who made the grand debut at the main forum in the morning, said that Huawei focuses on intelligent driving, intelligent cockpit, intelligent electronic control, intelligent car control and intelligent network connection in the automotive field.Yes. At present, the cumulative mileage of Huawei’s smart driving has reached 220 million km, with an average takeover mileage of 270km.
He further said, “with Huawei’s current smart driving ability, if you take it to Germany, you can properly handle the L3.
” Because the road in China is more complicated.
” Market chapter, ecological “broken wall” reconstruction, unexpectedly let a hundred flowers blossom, “price” rolled to “value”, many participants mentioned from different angles, at present, China’s automobile industry and its supply chain system are facing reconstruction with the high-quality development of the industry as a whole.
On the one hand, the market competition with the whole vehicle brand as the main body is fierce.
on the other hand, with the addition of various new quality productivity subjects and broader cooperation within the industry, the overall vitality and competitiveness of the industry are increasing day by day.
and began to spread influence and leadership overseas through various forms of cooperation at home and abroad.
Lei Jun advocated ecological opening and cooperation and shared construction in the whole industry.
Huawei established Hongmeng Zhihang Ecological Alliance with Cyrus, Chery, Jianghuai and BAIC New Energy to expand the scale of production and marketing.
Zhiji will jointly develop a smart digital chassis with SAIC Audi to promote China’s smart car technology overseas.
Zero and Strandis have adopted a “reverse joint venture” model to accelerate the process of globalization and will land in nine European countries.
It plans to enter South America, Central and East Africa and the Asia-Pacific region by the end of the year.
Moreover, as an important development direction of three-dimensional transportation in the future, the technology of eVTOL electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft manufacturers has planned to sell eVTOL products to countries along the “Belt and Road Initiative” such as the Middle East and Malaysia.
Perhaps, as Yang Hong, chairman of Hangsheng Electronics, said, in the face of the problem of large-scale and inefficient internal volume of the industry, on the one hand, we need to break the situation through technological innovation, quality improvement and sustainable development.
on the other hand, going to sea is the only way for domestic cars to break the situation, we should have long-term doctrine, adhere to quality first, go to sea together, and form the competitiveness of the industrial chain.
In the process of increasingly fierce competition at the product and technical level and rapid increase in industry concentration, it has become a new wave for heads of car companies to go to the front desk to create “personal IP” through live short videos.
Among them, the new “Top Stream” and “Red Master” Zhou Hongyi, with their humorous and funny style, instantly detonated the mood and online traffic of the whole audience, and personally “competed for the flow” of the entrepreneur IP in “practical teaching”.
“entrepreneurs do IP is a top project, but also a compulsory course.
” He believes that in the era of short video, the transfer of traffic platforms has brought fundamental changes to corporate communication.
Entrepreneurs need to create personal IP and establish direct contact with users-“you are the head of the company.
If you don’t go there, how can you get customers?” .
There is no denying that in the era when traffic is king, “being seen, being heard, being understood, and being recognized” is a brand-new ability.
The “long board” from Internet technology enterprises has carried out a “dimension reduction strike” on traditional car companies.
It will even determine to a large extent the seats and seats of the “card table” in the industry “PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS” where excess capacity is being cleared.
As many participants have repeatedly stressed– science and technology is the base of competitiveness.
the future is the common vision and journey of the industry.
and the market is a means to meet user needs and solve user pain points.
it is also a “touchstone” to test the success of scientific and technological innovation and industrial upgrading.
After years of continuous exploration and iteration, as an organic part of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area auto show, the future automobile forerunner conference adopts an innovative agenda and issues of widespread concern both inside and outside the industry, taking “science and technology-oriented, future-oriented and market-oriented” as the industry profile, inviting industry “top” industry leaders to focus on hot spots, focal points and pain points that have attracted much attention both inside and outside the industry.
We are committed to gathering attention and consensus inside and outside the industry through innovative communication, and strive to build a forward position of industry influence on the highland of “the first city of new energy vehicles”.
As a brand platform for industrial exchange and promotion of “the first city of new energy vehicles”, Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area Auto Show will take the display and promotion of new quality productivity innovation achievements as a firm commitment and lasting mission.
The holding of the first China New Energy vehicle Science and Technology Exhibition has also injected new vitality and led new breakthroughs into Shenzhen and the global new energy and smart car industry, and jointly promoted all sectors of the industry to break the boundary and join hands to reach a new peak.
“two exhibitions and one meeting” will always be committed to bring new ideological collisions and cooperation opportunities for the global automobile industry, and further promote the high-quality development of the automobile industry.
We sincerely invite the industry “forerunners” to actively participate, stand on a new starting point together, and go on a new journey of “striving for current”.
