The 2024 National People's Congress and the National People's Congress are being held. On March 5, the second session of the 14th National People's Congress made a work report. Among them, the new quality productivity, boosting the sales cost of intelligent networked new energy vehicles, and promoting the optimization and upgrading of the industrial chain were written into the first work report.
Feng Xingya, deputy to the National People's Congress and general manager of Guangzhou Automobile Group, said in an interview with Shell Finance reporter: "New quality productivity is an inherent requirement and an important focus to promote high-quality development. To put it simply, it is characterized by innovation, and the key is quality. ”

The new quality productivity is the productivity generated by scientific and technological innovation and the realization of key disruptive technological breakthroughs.
Beijing News Shell Finance: The "Work Report" mentions vigorously promoting the construction of a modern industrial system and accelerating the development of new productive forces. What is your understanding of new qualitative productivity? How will GAC Group lay out?
Feng Xingya: I believe that new quality productivity is an inherent requirement and an important focus to promote high-quality development, it is a productivity led by scientific and technological innovation and the realization of key disruptive technological breakthroughs, and it is a transcendence of traditional productivity. To put it simply, it is characterized by innovation, and the key is quality.
In the next step, we will focus on promoting the battery life cycle industry and the smart electricity service industry, so as to realize the early completion and operation of a number of key projects "from mine to pile", help achieve carbon peak and carbon neutrality, and comprehensively build a green, low-carbon and circular development economic system. Actively lay out the three-dimensional travel business model, promote the construction of smart transportation in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, strive to realize the commercialization of unmanned driving as soon as possible, create a new future-oriented mobility ecology, and accelerate the cultivation of emerging industries that are compatible with new quality productivity.
As the "chain master" enterprises, car companies should seize the strategic opportunity of "intelligent network + new energy".
Beijing News Shell Finance: The "Work Report" mentions the promotion of the optimization and upgrading of the industrial chain, what do you know about this, and what efforts has GAC Group made?
Feng Xingya: We believe that with the rapid rise of new energy and intelligent networked vehicles, the demand for the quality and timeliness of emerging technologies is becoming increasingly strong, and the domestic automotive industry chain is gradually becoming regionalized and localized.
As the "chain master" enterprise of the intelligent networked new energy vehicle industry, GAC Group has seized the strategic opportunity of "intelligent networked + new energy" in recent years and accelerated its transformation into a technology-based enterprise.
In 2017, GAC Group invested in the construction of GAC Zhilian New Energy Vehicle Industrial Park. Relying on this core carrier, GAC Group has promoted the gathering of upstream and downstream advantageous resources, including IGBT, battery, electric drive and other production enterprises. In addition, GAC Group has also created intelligent driving technology and smart travel ecology throughout the chain.
Since 2022, GAC has increased its investment and successively established companies such as Inpai Technology Battery Company, Ruipai Power Electric Drive Company, and Youpai Energy Technology, and actively built a vertically integrated new energy industry chain of "lithium ore + basic lithium battery raw material production + battery production + energy storage and charging and swapping services + battery leasing + battery ** and cascade utilization".
At the same time, GAC Group has also strengthened the role of capital empowerment, and continuously optimized the first-chain structure around the two core areas of intelligent networking and new energy vehicles through its subordinate capital operation and equity investment and financing platform, GAC Capital, and at the same time laid out forward-looking technologies to supplement the needs of future development, further improved the layout of the industrial chain, and enhanced the ability of independent controllability.
