From the down-to-earth practice of taking root in the land to the exploration of reaching for the stars, Zoomlion is telling the world, in an unprecedented way, the sentiment and mission of a Chinese equipment manufacturing enterprise.  

At 00:31 Beijing time on August 9, 2025, China's Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center, using a Jielong-3 carrier rocket in the sea area near Rizhao, Shandong, successfully launched the Geely Constellation Group 04 satellites into space. The satellites smoothly entered their predetermined orbits, and the launch mission was a complete success.

Among them, a satellite named "Zoomlion" soared into the sky with the rocket, heading toward the sea of stars. This is the first enterprise-named satellite in the global construction machinery industry, marking that Zoomlion's "footprints" have extended from the earth to the vastness of space. This is not only a heartfelt tribute to national development, the industry's mission, and future visions, but also demonstrates Zoomlion's firm determination to continue advancing digitalization, intelligence, greening, and globalization, so that its services reach every corner of the world.

Unchanged Original Aspiration: Sincere Sentiment of Serving the Country through Industry

In 1992, a group of researchers with the original aspiration of "serving the country through industry" stepped out of the laboratory and took the mission of "industrializing science and technology and making industry technological" as their guiding principle for action. For more than thirty years, every step of Zoomlion has been closely linked to the pulse of the country's development. From the construction of scientific research stations on Antarctic glaciers to the super project of the Yarlung Zangbo River hydropower project, and then to the global extension of the "Belt and Road," Zoomlion's "major-country heavy equipment" is everywhere, continuously contributing Zoomlion's strength to national construction and global development, and engraving the resilience and glory of Chinese manufacturing.

This sense of responsibility and sentiment also flows in the blood of every Zoomlion employee. At the Changsha sub-venue of the 2024 CCTV Spring Festival Gala, Zoomlion Smart Industrial City made a stunning appearance. A spectacular array of dozens of machines complemented the song "Sea of Stars," showcasing the hardcore strength of Chinese manufacturing. That simple yet resounding phrase, "We built it!" is precisely the most sincere declaration by Zoomlion employees about their own cause, their hometown, and their country.

The launch of the "Zoomlion" satellite is precisely the continuation and sublimation of this original aspiration and sentiment. This satellite commemorates the sweat of every builder, pays tribute to every step of the country's high-quality development, and also carries Zoomlion's tribute to more than thirty years of striving, as well as its solemn promise regarding the infinite possibilities of the future.

Mission on a Distant Voyage: Technology Leads the Industry's New Future

As a leader in the global construction machinery industry, Zoomlion takes innovation as its primary driving force, adheres to the path of technological self-reliance and independent innovation, and, relying on eight national-level scientific research and innovation platforms, has cumulatively applied for more than 17,800 patents and led the formulation and revision of more than 570 standards. From China's first crawler crane with a capacity of over 3,000 tons, the world's longest 101-meter carbon fiber boom concrete pump truck, and the world's first tower crane exceeding the 10,000-ton-meter class, to the world's largest 4,000-ton all-terrain crane and the world's highest 82-meter straight-boom aerial work platform, Zoomlion has continuously reshaped the industry landscape with a series of "world records" and "world firsts," standing at the global technological high ground.

The successful launch of the "Zoomlion" satellite has opened up entirely new imaginative space for the construction machinery industry. It symbolizes that Zoomlion, using technology as its pen and the starry sky as its canvas, is painting a grand blueprint for global services that crosses mountains and seas and reaches without boundaries. Whether in polar regions, deserts, plateaus, or offshore operation platforms, Zoomlion's services can be delivered accurately and efficiently. This satellite is the best footnote to Zoomlion's accelerated transformation and upgrading toward digitalization, intelligence, greening, and globalization. It not only demonstrates Zoomlion's profound connection with the future and the world, but also highlights the enterprise's determination to empower industry with technology and lead the industry toward a higher dimension.  

With Zoomlion Smart Industrial City as its core, Zoomlion has built 23 globally leading smart factories and, relying on more than 10 overseas R&D and manufacturing bases and more than 30 first-tier business air hubs, has constructed a global network covering more than 200 countries and regions. In the future, Zoomlion will continue to explore cutting-edge technologies and future technologies, actively explore diversified integrated applications such as big data, the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and satellite communications, inject infinite possibilities into the industry's new ecosystem, and provide global customers with more efficient and smarter services.
