The world today is facing unprecedented changes. From market changes to environmental crises, from scientific and technological revolution to industrial transformation, how do enterprises fulfill the mission of The Times? How to build and empower a circle of friends? Siemens has its answer.

Today, Dr. Xiao Song, Chairman, President and CEO of Siemens China, attended the 5th Annual Entrepreneur Tianfu Conference in Chengdu. With the theme of “Mission of The Times: High-quality Development of Science and Technology and Industry”, he and many leaders in the political, business and academic circles discussed and exchanged business ideas, and jointly wrote a new chapter of development.

“How did Siemens overcome the torrent of history and survive so many challenges? Our answer: take a long-term view, keep up with The Times, and consistently innovate.” Dr. Chausson said in a speech at the annual meeting.

At a time when uncertainty has become the norm, Siemens takes on the responsibility of The Times with its digital and low-carbon “two-wheel drive”. “Two-wheel drive” is the key to achieving high-quality development of the industry, and its core technology is the digital twin, which blends the real and digital worlds, he added.

Based in Sichuan, sensing the west and looking across the country, the Entrepreneur Tianfu Annual Meeting has gradually developed into a landmark exchange event in western China, contributing “Tianfu wisdom” to economic and social development. At the annual meeting, Dr. Xiao Song also had in-depth exchanges with friends circle partners such as New Hope, Tongwei, Feihe and Wuliangye to expand new cooperation opportunities.

Among them, Tongwei Group is a “double” leading enterprise in the field of agriculture and animal husbandry and new energy. In 2022, Tongwei won the Forbes Top 50 Sustainable Industrial Enterprises in China, its brand value ranked first among private enterprises in Sichuan, and ranked first in the two major industries of global aquaculture and photovoltaic for a second time.

Siemens and Tongwei have a long history of cooperation. At present, Siemens’ innovative hardware and software products and solutions have been widely used in Tongwei’s high-purity silicon production, solar cell and module production, and photovoltaic power generation business.

Dr. Xiao Song held talks with Liu Hanyuan, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Tongwei Group, to explore the cooperation potential in the fields of digital construction, smart comprehensive energy, smart low-carbon park and smart agriculture and animal husbandry.

Liu Hanyuan said at the meeting: “Tongwei is committed to the ‘double green development’ of green agriculture and green energy, while Siemens leads the industrial transformation with cutting-edge technology. The road to carbon neutrality is a long one, and we are pleased to have a like-minded partner like Siemens. We hope that the two sides will continue to work together to build new strengths and foster new driving forces for China’s energy transition.”

“Siemens and Tongwei share the same pursuit of innovation and the same mission to promote the high-quality development of technology and industry.” Dr. Xiao Song said, “It is out of such responsibility that we put forward the concept of ‘two-wheel drive’, which will not only enable Tongwei’s business development, but also inject infinite vitality into our mutually beneficial and win-win ecosystem.”
