  "With the addition of many scientific and technological innovations, the aluminum alloy materials processed and sold by Nannan Aluminum are actively embedded in the global industrial chain and supply chain, and various products are exported to more than 40 countries and regions around the world, and is striving to become a global new aluminum material. Innovation leads enterprises and first-class product manufacturing enterprises." Zhou Lian, deputy to the National People's Congress, secretary of the Party Committee and chairman of Guangxi Investment Group Co., Ltd., said in an exclusive interview with a reporter from China News Agency recently.

  Manufacturing is the main battlefield for technological innovation.

In recent years, China has made unprecedented efforts to strengthen original and leading scientific and technological research, focus on basic fields such as key basic materials and key common technologies, strengthen independent innovation, and vigorously promote the advanced industrial foundation and industrial chain modernization. Made in China is in the global industrial chain. The influence of the supply chain continues to rise.

  Guangxi Nannan Aluminum Processing Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Nannan Aluminum Processing) is invested and controlled by Guangxi Investment Group Co., Ltd. It is an advanced manufacturer of new aluminum materials for aerospace transportation integrating R&D, production and operation.

On April 29, 2021, the Long March 5B Yao-2 carrier rocket precisely sent the Tianhe core module of the space station into the predetermined orbit.

The key aluminum alloy materials used for the Long March 5B Yao-2 launch vehicle in the Tianhe core module this time came from Nannan Aluminum Processing.

  Zhou Lian said that Nannan Aluminum Processing deploys the innovation chain around the industrial chain, and lays out the industrial chain around the innovation chain. The key technical problems in the industry such as body profiles have repeatedly set records of the first in China, the first in Asia and the first in the world.

  "The intelligent manufacturing management and control platform of Nannan Aluminum Processing has been officially launched in 2021, realizing the interconnection of scientific research, production, sales, operation and maintenance and other data of the regional aluminum deep processing industry chain led by Nannan Aluminum Processing. In digital communication, the efficiency of production organization, management efficiency and product quality can be effectively improved." Zhou Lian said.

  At present, the aforementioned system has realized the data interconnection of Nanning base and Liuzhou base in Guangxi. More than 2 million pieces of process data have entered the system, and more than 10,000 orders have been processed through contract processing and process route planning, greatly reducing costs and increasing efficiency for enterprises.

"We will rely on the advantages of massive R&D, production data and application scenarios, and use the 'digital brain' to carry out all-round and full-chain data integration of the physical industry chain, and build Nannan Aluminum Processing into an industry digital benchmarking enterprise." Zhou Lian said.

  Relying on the "empowerment" of scientific and technological innovation, Nannan Aluminum Processing not only realizes the "going out" of products, but also realizes the "going out" of commercial brands, attracting customers from various elite industries such as aerospace, rail transit, 3C semiconductor to throw "olive branches", Effectively enhance the competitiveness and influence of China's aluminum processing manufacturing industry in the global industry.

  On January 1 this year, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) came into effect, which will help China better integrate into regional and global industrial chains, value chains and supply chain networks, and promote domestic and international dual circulation.

Zhou Lian said that as the first local Fortune 500 company in Guangxi, Guangxi Investment Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as GFIG) has made relevant layouts in exporting advantageous industries.

  "During the '14th Five-Year Plan' period, GFIG will make full use of the markets and resources of ASEAN and countries along the 'Belt and Road', and actively participate in the division of labor and cooperation in the global industrial chain and supply chain." He introduced that in the aluminum industry, aluminum deep processing Products will be further sold to ASEAN countries such as Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore; in the energy industry, we will further strengthen cooperation with ASEAN countries in energy and related technology trade, and develop overseas energy investment business; in terms of digital economy, we will cooperate with ASEAN countries. Carry out exchanges and cooperation in smart city construction, e-commerce, information security, etc.

  In addition, in terms of cross-border investment, the Guangxi Investment Group, together with CDB Capital, Singapore Dahua Venture Capital and France's Cathay Investment Fund, jointly initiated the establishment of the Guangxi Luhai New Channel Equity Investment Fund, with a total scale of RMB 10 billion.

GFIG will invest and incubate a number of industry leading companies in ASEAN countries through capital investment.
