The change of car and life -- Commemorating the changes of the 40 years
[2018-03-02]

Open the sealed memory and read the traces of years. Looking back, when we reexamine the passing years, we are surprised to see the vicissitudes of an era.

In December 18, 1978, this is a day forever remembered by history. On this day, the party was solemnly held in the third Plenary Session of the 11th CPC Central Committee. The meeting established the ideological line of emancipating the mind and seeking truth from facts, and made a historic decision to transfer the work of the party and the state to the economic construction and implement the reform and opening up. And ancient China has opened a door to overlook the world and reform.

It is also in this year that the great change of China's automobile industry has begun.

『In July 15, 1953, FAW set up a foundation in Changchun.』

 

 『In July 13, 1956, the first car made in China was released by FAW, Changchun's Jiefang Truck.』

Finally, with a sentence of "joint venture can be done" by Comrade Deng Xiaoping, the shackles of Chinese people have been locked away for many years, and the Chinese automobile industry has successfully embarked on the road of 40 years of reform.


In the 40 years after this, China's auto industry has undergone a series of major changes. From the birth of the joint venture model to the rapid rise of Chinese brands and the development of the new energy auto industry, the 40 year reform process includes the spirit of pioneering and innovation of China's auto industry. It shows the developing track of China's auto industry.

In 1992, China's car annual output exceeded 1 million vehicles; in 2009, China's car annual output reached 10 million; in 2013, China's car annual output and sales of more than 20 million vehicles, which is the first time for China's automobile production and sales to break through 20 million, and the first in the world for five years. The acquisition of this series of brilliant figures is the result of the hard struggle of several generations of auto people, and it also marks China's entry into the ranks of the world's automobile manufacturing countries.

 『Bricks mobile as a symbol of wealth and status, was a smash hit』

 『In the early days of reform and opening up, people's main travel tools were buses and bicycles』

『The "revival" high speed rail of up to 350 kilometers per hour』


oday, when we again look at the past bit by bit, still couldn't help filled with a thousand regrets! In the past forty years, our food and clothing have long been changed: from "Dacron" to "skin coat", from "nest head" to "dog", from "mud house" to "skyscraper", from "travel by legs" to "aircraft and high speed iron", and our songs have long been from the original Deng. Li Jun became Jay Chou. Now he runs around the street with iPhone. Do you still remember the big iron box that always hung in the studio?

 『The Santana car billboard behind the crowd in 1991』

 

And the change in the car industry also makes us feel very exciting and inspiring. From the common people in the eyes of the common people (Santana, Jetta, Fukang) to the full street to see the tired car brand, from small to shared cars, the Chinese auto industry has been assembled from CKD. To the transformation of independent research and development, we have achieved the great leap from the joint venture brand to the Chinese brand going out.

Forty years and forty years, temper forward. In the past forty years, China has created a remarkable miracle of development, and the Chinese automobile industry has also completed a magnificent turn from the world's automobile power to the world's automobile power. Now, standing in the history of reform and opening up 40th anniversary, the car family will seek the memory of history through the "reform and opening up 40th anniversary series of reports of reform and opening up" and search for the "reform mark" that belongs to us, and please look forward to it.
