He emphasized that Anqing Economic and Technological Development Zone is the main battlefield for the city's economic development and shoulders the glorious mission of promoting the city's "rejuvenation and restoration of glory." Currently, the municipal Party committee and government are proactively planning new industrial tracks and have decided to establish a commercial aerospace industry in Anqing High-speed Railway New Area, fully guaranteeing the development of the commercial aerospace industry.The hyperspectral satellite data center and satellite manufacturing production line project signed today marks the first strategic move by CAS Xiguang Co., Ltd. in East China, and is also the first major project in Anqing High-speed Railway New Area. It boasts high technological content, strong industrial driving force, and broad market prospects.We will organize the most capable special teams and the most professional personnel to provide the most sincere and comprehensive "nanny-style" service, and escort the project construction throughout the entire process.

In her speech, Qin Jing, Chairman and General Manager of Xi'an Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics CAS Aerospace Science and Technology Group Co.,LTD, expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the leaders of Anhui Province, Anqing City, and Anqing Economic and Technological Development Zone, as well as the Anqing Tong'an Industrial Investment Fund for their strong support. She also offered suggestions for the project's implementation.This signing, marking a successful start to Anqing's commercial aerospace development in 2024, is a landmark collaboration and a significant achievement in the deep integration between Anqing Economic and Technological Development Zone and CAS Xi'an Optoelectronics.This is also a concrete action by both parties to jointly promote the development of the aerospace economy in Anqing and contribute to the construction of a strong aerospace nation. Taking this signing as an opportunity, Xi'an Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics CAS Aerospace Science and Technology Group Co.,LTD will thoroughly implement the Scientific Outlook on Development, further optimize resource allocation, give full play to their respective advantages, and carry out in-depth cooperation in the field of hyperspectral remote sensing satellites and satellite applications. This will build a new engine and stimulate new momentum for the commercial aerospace industry in Anqing and even Anhui Province, helping Anqing to become a new benchmark for the national commercial aerospace industry.

In the presence of leaders and guests, Wang Chu, Deputy Director of the Management Committee of the Municipal Economic and Technological Development Zone, and Qin Jing, Chairman and General Manager of Xi'an Xi'an Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics CAS Aerospace Science and Technology Group Co.,LTD Technology Co., Ltd., signed an agreement on behalf of their respective companies for a hyperspectral satellite data center and satellite manufacturing production line project. In the future, the two parties will conduct long-term cooperation in areas such as hyperspectral satellite manufacturing and remote sensing satellite big data applications, further deepening their cooperation, expanding their industrial layout, and jointly creating a new benchmark for my country's commercial aerospace industry to better meet national strategic needs, emerging industry needs, and Anqing's development needs.

Leveraging the leading hyperspectral technology advantages of CAS Xi'an Optics & Aerospace, this projectThe project encompasses four major components: Anqing's first customized urban satellite, "Anqing Hyperspectral-1," a satellite industry company in East China, and a satellite integrated operation and control platform and satellite manufacturing base in East China.The project will createEast China's first hyperspectral satellite data centerThis system integrates satellite data processing, ground-based telemetry, tracking, and command (TT&C), and satellite data applications. It will conduct in-depth research and development on technologies related to automated processing of satellite remote sensing and big data, promoting the commercial application of hyperspectral remote sensing satellite data in various fields and providing strong data support for the local digital economy. Simultaneously, it will leverage the hyperspectral technology of CAS Xiguang Aerospace as its core driving force.A satellite manufacturing base integrating satellite payload optical assembly, electronic assembly, and satellite platform manufacturing was rapidly established.To build the most technologically advanced, best-serviced, and highest-capacity satellite production line, helping Anqing become a new highland for the national aerospace industry.

The successful implementation of this projectIt pioneered satellite applications in East China, significantly promoting the deep integration of Anqing City's innovation chain, industrial chain, capital chain, and talent chain.The region will fully leverage the leading and radiating role of the commercial aerospace industry to form a complete industrial cluster encompassing design, manufacturing, measurement, operation and control, and data application. Simultaneously, it will comprehensively promote the introduction and cultivation of high-level local talent, facilitate Anhui Province's economic development towards high-quality growth, and create a virtuous cycle for the aerospace industry characterized by a distinct leading industry, automatic attraction of resources, talent mobility and aggregation, and continuously enhanced core competitiveness.

This signed project received strong support from the Anqing Municipal Government's guidance fund. Specifically, the Anqing Tong'an Industrial Investment Fund invested 100 million yuan to increase its stake in Xi'an Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics CAS Aerospace Science and Technology Group Co.,LTD's latest round of financing.This has greatly promoted the rapid development of CAS Xiguang Aerospace and injected strong momentum into the future construction and layout of the project.

In the future, both parties will adhere to the principles of complementary advantages and common development, make every effort to promote the rapid construction of the project, upgrade the economic and industrial model, jointly create a new situation of integrated development, and add strong momentum to the high-quality development of my country's commercial aerospace industry.
