Prospects: Looking into 2021, due to the impact of pandemic, the overall global economy will be in a sluggish recovery under a number of constraints including the impact brought by a new wave of the pandemic, weak growth momentum and gloomy employment market, resulting in a high level of uncertainties in economic outlook. From the perspective of the domestic economy, making progress while maintaining stability remains the general keynote. As China has a stronger momentum of economic recovery, the domestic consumption power will be further stimulated through the strategy of expanding domestic demand under the development model of domestic and international dual circulation. Remediation of shortcomings in infrastructures, “new infrastructure, new urbanisation initiatives and major projects” (“兩新一重”) and the expansion of strategic investments in emerging industries will constantly boost the demands in auxiliary markets such as trucks and construction machineries markets. Limitations on production for environmental protection, replacement of China III vehicles, and anti-overloading policies will continue to drive replacement demands in industries including the truck industry. Motivated by the development of new infrastructures such as 5G facility construction, market demand for energy and electricity will gradually expand. The work concerning agriculture, rural areas and farmers (“三農”) has shifted from “winning the battle against poverty” to “comprehensive rural vitalisation”, thereby creating development opportunities for agricultural machinery auxiliaries. In view of the goals of “CO2 Emission Peak by 2030 and Carbon Neutrality by 2060” and the huge potential brought by the trend of energy saving and intelligent network, there will be a rapid development in the new energy business, which will bring opportunities for the highquality development of related businesses of the Company. The Company will continue to carefully implement pandemic prevention and control measures as part of the Company's normal operations, make continuous effort in optimising production and operation, fully expedite the pace of technological innovation, enhance product competitiveness and brand influence, and make best efforts to accomplish the Company's full-year goals. Focusing on the annual sales target, the Company will strive for market expansion. Adhering to a customer demand-oriented approach, the Company will seize the development opportunities in the “post-pandemic era”, make efforts to improve product offerings, steadfastly capture the market demands and secure orders. the Company will cultivate different segment markets and adjust the Company's marketing strategies from time to time to precisely address diversified needs from different customers, as well as to further upgrade the Company's business model with innovative marketing models and optimised sales and service systems. Through scientific research on emission-related regulations and policies and the development pattern of the industry, the Company will make scientific planning of products and technologies based on the Company’s “14th Five-Year” development plan. the Company also aim to digitalise all business processes and efficiently respond to the needs of customers and market through enhancement of product development, delivery, quality and services. the Company will accelerate the pace of technological innovation and move towards the high end in all aspects. Through coordinating global R&D resources, the Company will continuously work on optimising the new four-in-one technology innovation system consisting of “self-developed innovation+ open innovation+ professional innovation+ basic-research innovation”. In particular, in terms of the basic research area and “bottleneck” technologies, the Company will strive to make breakthroughs to address thorny issues and master the core technologies. the Company will efficiently introduce road-going China VI and non-road-going China IV products and improve product consistency to maintain a leading edge in the new cycle of emission standard upgrade. Moreover, the Company will make efforts to expedite breakthroughs in key and core technologies of fuel cells to significantly lower the cost of fuel cell engines so as to reach a leading position in the industry. the Company will accelerate the development of electric control of engine, new energy and hydraulics to master key control technologies and improve the Company's forward development capacity of both software and hardware. the Company will also speed up the implementation of additive manufacturing by developing a design and simulation platform for additive manufacturing in order to achieve the goal of integrating product design and manufacturing. the Company will strengthen risk management and control, and comprehensively enhance the quality of operation. the Company will adopt innovative management approach and tools, establish a data administration system and explore data value based on the needs of the Company's customers and characteristics of their businesses, with a view to facilitating the digital transformation of the management of the Company. the Company will make continuous effort to lower costs, improve efficiency and enhance the profitability of all series of products in a comprehensive manner. the Company will further enhance the methodology, tools and approaches of the WOS management system, and accelerate the promotion and implementation of WOS at different classes and levels.
