On December 2nd, the 16th National Corporate Culture Annual Conference was held in Qingdao, Shandong Province, where the National Excellent Corporate Culture Achievements were announced. CYPC's submission, titled Pursuing Perfection, Scaling New Heights, Selfless Dedication to Service: Forging the “Perfection” Cultural Brand of Strategic National Assets in the New Era, stood out among over 600 entries nationwide and was awarded the "Special Award for National Excellent Corporate Culture Achievements".
The "National Excellent Corporate Culture Achievements" selection activity is organized by the China Enterprise Confederation and the China Enterprise Directors Association. It is the only remaining recognition program in the domain of corporate culture in China, held biennially. These awards represent the highest honor for outstanding corporate culture achievements in China. Since its inception in 2002, the event has been successfully held 16 times. This year, a total of 13 special achievements and 145 first-class achievements were approved, reflecting the latest advancements in and development level of corporate culture building in China. The theme of this year's Conference was "Cultivating Excellent Corporate Culture with Chinese Characteristics, Strengthening and Expanding Chinese Enterprise Brands," aiming to comprehensively summarize and promote successful experiences in Chinese corporate culture and brand building, and to lead and support high-quality enterprise development.
In recent years, CYPC has been adhering to the guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, studied and implemented Xi Jinping Thought on Culture. It has deeply embedded the revolutionary traditions of loyalty to the Party and dedication to the country and the Three Gorges Project Spirit centered on "Dedicating to Building the Three Gorges Project for the Chinese Nation" into the core of its corporate culture. This has fostered the development of a "Perfection - Responsibility" hydropower cultural system that aligns with the hydropower workers' commitment to rooting themselves at the frontline of construction and operation and loyally safeguarding the key national assets. CYPC always bears in mind General Secretary Xi Jinping's earnest instruction that "the key national assets must be firmly held in our own hands." The Company has anchored its corporate vision of "establishing a world-class clean energy listed company with hydropower at its core" and practicing the mission of "providing flood protection in the Yangtze River Basin and contributing clean energy to the society" In the great practice of operating and managing the world's largest clean energy corridor, the Company leads its managers and employees in uniting their efforts to overcome challenges, injecting a powerful intellectual impetus into the safe and efficient operation of the key national assets.
CYPC always regards the rooting and flourishing of culture as the key measure to test the effectiveness of cultural building. It has organized its subsidiaries to develop a series of inherited sub-cultural brands based on their actual operations, such as the river basin maintenance culture of "Striving for Excellence and Making Outstanding Achievements" and the cascade dispatching culture of "Reading Sky, Embracing Water, Delivering Energy". These efforts ensure that the "Perfection - Responsibility" culture regains its vitality in grassroots practice. The Baihetan Hydropower Plant's submission, titled Innovatively Building the “Characteristic Corporate Culture Adhering to Guidelinesin the Congratulatory Letter” to Empower the High-Quality Development of Key National Projects in the New Era, also won the "First Prize for National Excellent Corporate Culture Achievements." Two submissions of the Company have been awarded the Special Prize and the First Prize respectively. This marks a significant breakthrough for CYPC in exploring the path to building a cultural brand for the key national assets in the new era, providing a cultural building model for the energy industry, and fully showcasing the broad recognition of the Company's achievements by academia, business circles, and all sectors of society.
Looking ahead, CYPC will consistently inherit and promote the Three Gorges Project Spirit, formulate cultural development strategies from a systematic perspective, and shape the connotations of cultural brands to high standards. Specifically, we will strive to consolidate and deepen the "Perfection" cultural brand of the key national assets for the new era, which boasts powerful thought leadership, spiritual cohesion, value appeal, and international influence. We will also empower the operation management practice of the world's largest clean energy corridor with cultural soft power, fully demonstrating the contemporary demeanor of an excellent manager of the key national assets. All these efforts are aimed to contribute the "CYPC Solutions" to enriching the advanced socialist culture with Chinese characteristics, and strive to compose a magnificent chapter of rivers in the context of Chinese path to modernization.
