In January 2017, SAIC Signed an Industrial Cooperation Framework Agreement with the Zhengzhou Municipal Government, and just eight months later, the plant was erected. In 2017, the output value of the factory reached 1.48 billion yuan at the beginning of mass production, and the profit and tax reached 35 million, and the output value exceeded the 10 billion mark in the following year, becoming a "tax-paying enterprise with more than 100 million yuan" and maintaining it to this day. Up to now, the first phase of the project with a total investment of 4.3 billion yuan has been completed and put into operation; the second phase of the project with a total investment of 4.6 billion yuan has also started construction in 2018, and has been partially put into operation, and it is expected that the output value of the factory will reach 19.2 billion yuan this year, an increase of 14% year-on-year, and the output value will be nearly 70 billion yuan, with a total profit and tax of 2.37 billion yuan, and maintain an upward trend. When the second phase of the project is fully put into operation, the Zhengzhou plant will reach an annual production capacity of 600,000 vehicles.
As an important part of SAIC's passenger car intelligent manufacturing system, Zhengzhou factory inherits the "four modernizations and one high" production and manufacturing standards, deeply integrates information technology and intelligent equipment, and builds a digital factory through the innovative model of "manufacturing + Internet of Things", which has fully realized equipment automation, logistics precision, process transparency, and decision-making data. From the intuitive data point of view, the stamping workshop automatic mold change only takes 4 minutes; the total number of robots in the body workshop is as high as 548, the automation rate is as high as 99.9%, and the body-in-white yield rate can be guaranteed through 100% detection and monitoring of the body; the painting workshop realizes 100% automatic operation of the spraying process, which tightens the quality and safety criterion for each car driving out of here. Not only that, in terms of process environmental protection, the Zhengzhou factory adopts source emission reduction to reduce pollutant emissions in the production process, reduce waste gas VOCs emissions by more than 90%, comprehensive utilization rate of solid waste to more than 90%, and wastewater emission reduction by more than 30%.
The strong competitiveness of the Zhengzhou plant stems from SAIC's forward-looking layout for passenger cars. Focusing on SAIC's "new four modernizations" strategy, SAIC Passenger Vehicles has built a full-service chain digital intelligent transformation and innovation of "digital research and development + intelligent manufacturing + digital supply chain + digital marketing". In the field of intelligent manufacturing, SAIC Passenger Vehicles focuses on core business scenarios, creates an efficient, pragmatic and accurate intelligent manufacturing system, and builds world-class digital factories such as Zhengzhou, Shanghai Lingang, Ningde, Nanjing Pukou and other world-class digital factories based on IPv6+, 5G network, IOT and other technologies, which can shorten the R&D cycle by 38.4%, reduce the product defect rate by 7.5%, and increase production efficiency by 22%, effectively promoting the all-round upgrade of products and services, and providing users with the best travel experience. Based on this, SAIC Passenger Vehicles broke through from 8,000 enterprises across the country and won the 2021 national "Intelligent Manufacturing Benchmarking Enterprise".
