Automatic wheel alignment, stable following, waiting at red lights, active yielding... Like an "experienced driver," on the streets of Tongxiang, an "unmanned mini-car" Z5 drives in an orderly manner, delivering 2,000 express packages every day.

Merging into the traffic flow, the "Made in Tongxiang" car - NETA S Hunting Edition - is equipped with a 128-line LiDAR on its "head" and the NETA AD MAX intelligent driving assistance system. It observes in six directions and listens in eight, braking, yielding, and changing lanes with ease, taking you wherever you want to go.

Inside the "Wuzhen Light" Supercomputing Center, the cloud computing power of 1.8 x 1017 times times per second can "awaken" vehicles in milliseconds and even record your preferred car interior temperature, music, and fragrance, providing "ingenious strategies" for intelligent vehicle autonomous driving...

Manufacturing "smart cars"

Building "intelligent roads" 

Setting up a "powerful cloud"!

The scenery here is uniquely beautiful, constantly surpassing the imagination.

Tongxiang,

A county, riding the wind,

Showcasing its ambition to build a "City of Intelligent Driving Cars."

A set of more concrete data can reflect the thriving momentum of Tongxiang's intelligent connected vehicle industry ecosystem-

Tongxiang has gathered 2 vehicle manufacturing enterprises, Hozon and Daide Longtree, and is home to the Baidu Apollo Ecosystem Base and Freetech, an enterprise providing overall solutions for intelligent driving. It also boasts over 200 automotive industry supporting enterprises such as Siekon Transmission and Shuanghuan Transmission. Last year, the city's intelligent vehicle industry achieved an output value of RMB 32.4 billion among enterprises above the designated size, a year-on-year increase of 25.7%.

With deep roots and strong branches, enterprises along the intelligent connected vehicle chain are growing vigorously in Tongxiang.

Just last month, five national ministries and commissions jointly announced the first batch of "vehicle-road-cloud integration" application pilot cities, with Tongxiang successfully selected alongside Hangzhou and Deqing as a joint entity.

With the empowerment of "official certification", how can Tongxiang's intelligent connected vehicle industry seize this "immense fortune"?

New development requires new ideas. Only by creating a larger stage and attracting more "high-end players" to come to Tongxiang and take root here, forming an industry chain "circle of friends", can we blaze a path to break through the fierce competition in the intelligent connected vehicle industry.

Yesterday (August 20), the Tongxiang Intelligent Vehicle Industry "Talent Gathering and Circle Building to Strengthen the Chain" series of activities and the Wuzhen Internet of Vehicles Conference were held. Many industry experts and scholars were invited to gather in Tongxiang to discuss the transformation and opportunities of the intelligent connected vehicle industry from different perspectives. Yu Huiyou, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, attended and delivered a speech. Municipal leaders Yuan Jie and Xu Dong participated.

How does a county-level city rank among the "national team"? At the event, Yu Huiyou explained Tongxiang's foundation and advantages in developing the intelligent connected vehicle industry from three aspects: industry ecosystem, basic facilities, and computing power support.

Yu Huiyou stated that Tongxiang is one of the county-level cities with the most complete intelligent vehicle industry chain in China. Here, there is a complete intelligent vehicle industry ecosystem, with vehicle manufacturers, intelligent driving overall solution providers, and auto industry supporting enterprises, forming a relatively complete intelligent vehicle full industry chain. Tongxiang not only has intelligent basic facilities but also solid "supercomputing + intelligent computing" support. This thriving and vibrant emerging automotive industry city has formed certain first-mover advantages.

"Currently, Tongxiang is at the 'tipping point' of the vehicle-road-cloud integrated intelligent connected vehicle industry. The key to transforming the first-mover advantage into a development edge lies in talent." At the meeting, Yu Huiyou once again extended a sincere invitation to talents from all over the world:

We sincerely look forward to extensive exchanges and in-depth cooperation with everyone in Tongxiang, to spark more "inspirations" of ideas, give birth to more "models" of collaboration, and eagerly anticipate more automotive entrepreneurs and expert talents to favor Tongxiang and choose Tongxiang, investing and setting down roots on this hotbed of innovation and entrepreneurship, jointly creating a bright future for the intelligent vehicle industry.

Seizing the momentum and accumulating strength, What supports Tongxiang's intelligent vehicle industry to run faster and go further? During the keynote speech session, representatives from well-known enterprises and investment institutions in fields such as chips, Tier One, software, ecosystems, and funds focused on five forum themes, bringing cutting-edge ideas and opinion exchanges.

"Tongxiang has achieved a 'head start' in intelligent connected vehicles, with an excellent industry foundation. We look forward to in-depth collaboration with Tongxiang in the future," said Zheng Min, Chief Operating Officer of SiEngine Technology. Tongxiang's favorable location advantages and strong industrial strength have satisfied them, and they hope to equip "Tongxiang-made" intelligent vehicles with domestically-produced "most powerful brains" in the future. 

At the roundtable meeting, experts, scholars, and enterprises had a lively discussion on how Tongxiang can promote the "vehicle-road-cloud integration" development of intelligent connected vehicles. From different angles, they explored specific paths for the implementation of "vehicle-road-cloud integration", broadening ideas and providing inspiration for Tongxiang's next steps.

The dream of vehicle manufacturing has taken root and sprouted,

The ambition for industry transformation and upgrading is unstoppable.

A RMB 50 billion-level intelligent vehicle industry cluster

is accelerating its rise!
