"After entering the 11th Five-Year Plan period, relevant laws and regulations will impose stricter environmental protection requirements on enterprises, and companies will also face a number of challenging key technical issues and related issues. Therefore, we must have independent intellectual property rights through independent research and development. With core competitiveness products."

Bai Hongfa, general manager of Shanghai Diesel Engine Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Shanghai Diesel Engine Co., Ltd.), publicly stated recently that in the next five years, Shangchai will strengthen its independent innovation practice through international and domestic cooperation and transformation, and realize strategies, technologies, products, markets, management, and other aspects. Complete breakthrough.

The goal that Bai Hongfa has set for himself is to use the five-year period to accumulate the best talents at home and abroad to form a talented highland leading the domestic diesel engine industry; and to build a technological innovation mechanism of “talent internationalization and research and globalization”; the power range of diesel engines Expanded to 60~500 hp; core business upgraded from “diesel engine” to “electronic control assembly” with higher technological integration value; market changed from a single domestic market to rely on domestic market and entered overseas market; The field of commercial vehicles has expanded into the field of passenger cars. Shangchai will actively integrate into the global industrial chain, create value for users, bring return to shareholders, increase staff's income, enable suppliers to obtain benefits, and lay the foundation for the company's further implementation of international operations.

At the beginning of the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan”, it seems that domestic companies do not plan new strategic goals for themselves. However, Bai Hongfa’s high-profile release of the winds was a “magnificence” for Shang Chai’s blueprint. It is a “pressure” for industry peers.

People who understand the relevant background seem to think that this situation is expected. Because independent innovation is no longer a new concept for Shangchai, the establishment of the Power Engineering Research Institute at the end of last year made this a major step for Shangchai and its domestic counterparts to further strengthen the confidence and pace of independent innovation.

The first enterprise research institute

Encouraging enterprises to become the main body of independent innovation has already become a key spirit of national science and technology development. How companies develop their own R&D for many companies is still facing a long way to explore.

On December 16, 2005, the first domestic engine research institute, the Shangchai Power Engineering Research Institute, was established at Shangchai Company. As a symbol of this, Shangchai took a solid step forward on the road to technological innovation. At the same time, it has also established a blueprint for independent innovation for the companies in the industry, and has strengthened the confidence and determination of some independent innovation companies.

Today, most of the large-scale enterprises have their own technical departments, such as technology centers, etc. Shangchai is no exception. So what are the differences between the Shangchai Institute and the past technology center?

Bai Hongfa stated: “The past technical departments mainly addressed tactical issues, such as transforming old products, digesting and absorbing imported products, etc. A lot of work is adaptable. The Institute is different. This is a brand-new platform focusing on product development. We can actively plan and develop products at the strategic level and have complete independent intellectual property rights. Not to mention that today's engines are already high-tech products, and we must have corresponding R&D institutions and R&D teams to meet the challenges of the times."

Mr. Bruce Baikowski, executive director of Southwest Research Institute for Vehicles and Power, commented: “There are only a few companies in the world that have established such independent research institutes. For example, General Motors of the United States will affiliate with the Detroit Diesel Company. The department integrated with Allison’s transmission division to establish Detroit Allison, which combines the research and development of engines and powertrains to focus on solving the technical problems of new product development. This is a very wise move.”

Perhaps independent research and development is still new and challenging for most companies, and this phrase seems to be no stranger to Bai Hongfa. The establishment of the Shanghai Diesel Engine Power Engineering Institute is not a temporary idea. All things must have their origins, and at the beginning of the calculation, Shangchai’s independent R&D has probably been more than 50 years old.

Promote the rise of China's internal combustion engine industry

According to reports, Shanghai Diesel Engine Co., Ltd. is China's first professional engine manufacturing company. As early as the beginning of the liberation, Shangchai Company took the lead in independently developing and manufacturing a single-cylinder 12-horsepower diesel engine.

In 1958, it developed and developed China's first medium-power diesel engine, the 6135 diesel engine, and established China's first medium-power diesel engine brand with independent intellectual property rights—the Dongfeng brand. In 1964, the 6135 diesel engine was the first domestically produced T120 bulldozer. In 1969, it succeeded in supporting the first domestic ZL40 loader. After that, according to the matching needs of the host of construction machinery and trucks, Shangchai Company has independently developed the road rollers, car cranes, graders, pavers, trucks, generator sets, and diesel engines for ships, and has implemented various types of main engines. The first supporting domestic diesel engine.
