Rugao, Jiangsu | July 4, 2025 – Leading composite materials manufacturer Jiuding Group hosted a high-level research delegation studying the integration of united front work with private economic development. The delegation, spearheaded by Prof. Chen Mansheng (Vice Chairman of Nantong Social Sciences Association and Deputy Party Secretary of Nantong Vocational University), conducted an in-depth investigation into the company’s acclaimed Party-enterprise integration framework.
Accompanied by Wang Peng (Executive Deputy Director, Rugao United Front Work Department & Director, Overseas Chinese Affairs Office) and Xu Yinghua (Deputy Director, Rugao United Front Work Department & Party Secretary, Federation of Industry and Commerce), the delegation was hosted by Chairman Gu Qingbo and senior executives.
Symposium Highlights Governance Innovation
During the closed-door symposium, Chairman Gu Qingbo detailed Jiuding’s foundational principle: "Enterprise strength flows from robust Party building" Key institutional innovations presented included:
- Grassroots Organizational Coverage: Implementing the "branch at the frontline" model for comprehensive Party committee presence across operational units.
- Integrated Governance System: Establishing the "Gu Qingbo Model Worker Innovation Studio" as a dual-purpose platform for ideological education and technical R&D collaboration.
- Strategic Alignment Mechanisms: Ensuring business decisions align with national industrial policies through Party committee pre-review of major investments.
"By embedding Party representatives in management roles through our cross-appointment system, we’ve created organic synergy between production targets and political education," stated Chairman Gu during the presentation.
Academic Recognition & Policy Dialogue
Prof. Chen Mansheng praised Jiuding’s approach as "a replicable template for modern enterprise governance," particularly highlighting:
"The bidirectional integration mechanism and pre-decision Party deliberation demonstrate how private enterprises can actively contribute to national strategic goals while pursuing commercial excellence. This case profoundly informs our provincial policy recommendations."
Delegates further explored implications of the forthcoming Private Economy Promotion Law, with Rugao United Front officials emphasizing enhanced service mechanisms through the "1+2+N" enterprise assistance framework recently launched across Jiangsu.
Innovation Showcase
The delegation toured Jiuding’s Party History Corridor featuring interactive displays of milestone projects. In the Advanced Materials Gallery, researchers examined breakthroughs in:
- Carbon fiber reinforcement systems for aerospace applications
- Next-generation photovoltaic encapsulation materials
- Hydrogen storage vessels meeting national clean energy standards
Strategic Significance
This provincial research initiative, formally titled "Countermeasures for United Front Work Empowering High-Quality Private Economic Development," positions Jiuding as a benchmark for:
1. Institutionalizing Party-building within corporate governance structures
2. Translating national innovation-driven development strategies into enterprise-level practices
3. Demonstrating the competitive advantage of values-driven industrial leadership
The findings will contribute to Jiangsu’s policy toolkit for strengthening the private sector’s role in achieving technological self-reliance and common prosperity objectives.
