"I am a product-born company. I have been engaged in the testing of the latest generation of self-owned tank engines in China since I was 16 years old. I learned the diesel engine fuel system technology with the master during the day. I also have to learn the mechanical manufacturing and internal combustion engine principles at night, and have deep feelings for the engine. Like the "lunatics", I have been studying engine technology innovations. I have personally used the important choices of the Weichai engine route." "The Qilu era model" Tan Xuguang said in an interview.

Innovation is the first driving force for development, and it is the source of Weichai's pursuit of excellence and the pursuit of high-end. For more than 20 years, Weichai has always placed innovation at the core of its corporate development strategy, adhered to science and technology leadership, innovation drive, and firmly grasped key core technologies in its own hands. Under the leadership of Tan Xuguang, Weichai led the development of the company with products, and driven the innovation to drive to the high end, playing the strongest voice of the "China Power" era.

Innovation is always the background of the development of Weichai

"The core technology is whether it can't come, buy it, or can't get it. Weichai can continuously find opportunities in the market development and successfully cut in. It relies on innovation." In 2002, Tan Xuguang led the Weichai technology. The team began to use global resources to promote the innovation of internal combustion engine research and development, and went to independent development. In 2005, it successfully developed and released the first WP10/12 series of blue qingguosan electronically controlled common rail heavy-duty engine with complete independent intellectual property rights. . For Weichai, the important significance is that through this research and development, Weichai has cultivated a 30-person R&D backbone team with first-class technology and established its own full set of forward development processes. In Tan Xuguang's view, this is an important turning point in the development of Weichai.

At that time, the engine had three major technical routes around the world: single pump, pump nozzle and high pressure common rail. Everyone has their own opinions on which technical route to take. Tan Xuguang has had a deep understanding of the fuel system since his youth. After thorough research and analysis, he personally chose the technical route of high pressure common rail. This was a big controversy in the domestic industry at that time. But this is the role of Tan Xuguang. Now, the world's engines have chosen the high-pressure common rail technology route. Facts have proved that Tan Xuguang’s decision has made China’s heavy-duty auto industry less detours and saved a lot of costs.

In 2005, Weichai entered the "Lanqing" era. However, Tan Xuguang is keenly aware that if only a single engine is used, at best, the local engine company will be the largest in China. However, if the industry chain is opened, from the engine to the transmission to the axle, a core powertrain for a heavy-duty car will be formed, which will change the world.

This year, Tan Xuguang led the Weichai team, seized the opportunity, defeated many competitors in one fell swoop, strategically acquired Hunan Torch, integrated its Shaanxi Automobile Heavy Truck, Fast Transmission, Hande Axle quality assets, and created the world's "heavy diesel engine + The transmission + axle "powertrain gold industry chain business model, built the world's first powertrain research and development base.

Today, the Weichai gold industry chain has a unique competitive advantage, which not only completely reverses the dilemma of China's lack of core technology for heavy-duty commercial vehicle powertrains, but also supports its own brand of heavy-duty commercial vehicles to occupy 99% of the domestic market and achieve bulk export. . Weichai Power “Key Technology and Application Project of Heavy Commercial Vehicle Powertrain” won the first prize of National Science and Technology Progress Award in 2018.

"This honor is the biggest compliment to our hearts and minds. It is a great affirmation of Weichai Power's decades of solid innovation and unremitting research. It is the implementation of national innovation drive strategy and technology realization for all employees of Weichai. The most powerful proof of strong enterprises." Tan Xuguang said.

Talent is the source of enterprise innovation

Talent is always the foundation of a company's strength and the most critical factor in technological innovation.

"Either the development of the times or the structural changes of the economy require us to reform and change, and innovate and develop. The premise of all this is man." Tan Xuguang said, "When Weichai is on the verge of bankruptcy, we are profound. Recognizing the importance of talents. Talents are the source of innovation and development of enterprises. In the past few years, more than 300 high-end talents have been introduced before and after Weichai, which I personally checked."

In 1998, when Duichai lived and died, Tan Xuguang was appointed as the factory manager. Just taking office, Tan Xuguang has tried every means to find Zhang Jiyuan, who has been away for more than two years, and asked him to return. At that time, Zhang Jiyuan was one of the only two master students in Weichai. For various reasons, he chose to leave.

"It is Mr. Tan who gave me hope and gave me a very grand vision." Recalling that he chose to return, Zhang Jiyuan, now the vice president of Weichai Power, said with emotion.

Retaining talent will retain hope. Since the difficult transformation of the company, we have gradually established a flexible employment mechanism and an open research and development system. We have openly introduced high-end talents on a global scale, and established a professional recruitment team led by Tan Xuguang to introduce technology. Leading talent. On this basis, Weichai achieved technology sharing, global R&D and collaborative production through innovative global R&D systems.

“After the difficult transformation and development, we realized that first-class equipment needs first-class talents to manage, and first-class enterprises need first-class talents to build.” In the process of continuous innovation, Tan Xuguang deeply realized that buying technology is better than buying talents, and buying talents is better than building platform. Building a global platform and utilizing global talent resources has become a clear footnote for Weichai's talent innovation strategy.

Over the years, no matter how the market changes, Weichai has always maintained a high investment in research and development, with an accumulated investment of more than 15 billion yuan, accounting for more than 5% of research and development each year, reaching the level of international leading enterprises, creating a vibrant and innovative atmosphere, and supporting the 潍The road to transformation of high quality development of firewood.

In order to build an optimal innovation ecology, Weichai has established a “three-in-one” technological innovation capability system for engineering technology, science and technology and basic research; smoothed the development channels for R&D personnel, established a performance evaluation mechanism for heroes, and rewarded scientific and technical personnel. Innovative achievements; build an atmosphere of encouraging innovation and inclusive failure from top to bottom, and vigorously advocate the implementation of excellent innovation culture such as “do not fight for the first is to mix” and “use two days and a half for one day”. These measures have greatly encouraged the scientific and technological innovation talents. Facing the world's best goals and challenging the higher technology peaks.

"We just want to use the best platform, the highest income, the most stringent assessment to achieve the survival of the fittest, so that all those who can do things and do things to win respect and stage." Tan Xuguang said.
