On February 8, it was reported that after taking down the production bases of Hanteng, Hanlong and other Zotye systems, Linyi Zotye Automobile Base was also recently acquired by Great Wall Motors.

In this regard, the relevant person in charge of Great Wall Motors responded to the interface news reporter's request for verification: "In November 2021, Great Wall Motors and the Linyi Municipal Government officially signed a contract on the Linyi vehicle and parts production base project. The signatories for this project are Great Wall Motors and Linyi Municipal Government, and no other third parties are involved. ”

It is understood that the Linyi vehicle and parts production base project mainly includes a vehicle production base with an annual output of 120,000 vehicles, an engine and parts production base, etc. It can drive more than ten supporting enterprises in the automobile industry to settle in, which is conducive to activating idle production capacity, integrating and coordinating regional resources, and driving the development of regional related industries.

According to sources, the parties did not mention that the "takeover of the Zotye factory" may be deliberate. At the beginning of last year, after the news of Baoneng taking over the Linyi Zotye factory spread, it caused an uproar and ended in failure.
