Special topic: 2026 State-Owned Enterprise High-Quality Development Innovation Conference. The "2026 State-Owned Enterprise High-Quality Development Innovation Conference" was held in Beijing from October 22 to 24. The theme was "Anchoring National Strategy, Forging Core Functions — Empowering Chinese-Style Modernization through High-Quality Development."
Zhang Zhihui, Member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee, Vice President, and Chief Engineer of China Railway Signal & Communication Corporation Limited, stated in his speech that the world-class standard they pursue is not equivalent to the world-class standard of foreign enterprises. "What we pursue is not limited to the economic value and scale efficiency of the enterprise, but places greater emphasis on the enterprise's social value and strategic role. We must not only compete on the same stage with outstanding enterprises at home and abroad through full participation in market competition, but also play a strategic functional and mission-oriented role in the process of Chinese-style modernization."
In his view, the organic unity of strategic functional missions and the building of a world-class enterprise is a major proposition for the high-quality development of central enterprises in the new stage. "Central enterprises must firmly support national industrial development and serve as the 'pillar' in building a modern industrial system."
"They must persist in leading industry technological innovation and serve as the 'vanguard' in cultivating new quality productive forces."
"They must resolutely safeguard infrastructure security and serve as the 'ballast stone' in serving the overall situation and protecting people's livelihoods," Zhang Zhihui said. The high-quality development of central enterprises is a development in which corporate growth is deeply tied to the nation, and a development that better fulfills the responsibility of "national sentiment" on the basis of ensuring their own development quality and efficiency. The goal is to build a world-class enterprise with Chinese characteristics, forging one that plays a leading role in the market economy.
