"Far ahead, no rivals" — — He Xiaopeng seems to have watched Huawei’s conference in Yu Chengdong in advance, and responded to Huawei’s "far ahead" with "no rival".

What He Xiaopeng said is the latest platform architecture of car-making in Tucki, which clearly put forward the concept of "systematic car-making" for the first time.

The banner of autonomous driving and intelligent cockpit held high by Xpeng Motors before, including the new three-electric technology and integrated car body, is now unified under a technology brands.

What’s more, He Xiaopeng also said:

Under the new structure, it’s not how we challenge big-name car companies, but Great Wall Geely who think about how to challenge Tucki!

So what exactly is Tucki Whirlwind 2.0, and can it have such confidence?

And, this systematic car-making conference may also become a turning point in the development of Xpeng Motors.

It embodies Tucki’s new power of making cars from intelligent rivers and lakes, and has really started the transition towards all-round strength technology car enterprises.

Combined with the experience of Xpeng Motors in the past six months, this may be a decisive turning point.

Whirling 2.0, what is it?

From the release of products and technologies since the establishment of Tucki, the main contents of the surge have already been announced.

Boosting 2.0, these technologies are summarized into three modules: intelligence, power generation and vehicle.

intelligentize

This is the foundation and killer of Xpeng Motors, and it is also the selling point that has been promoted in the past.

In the new "whirlwind" architecture, the electronic and electrical architecture of X-EEA has been improved in two aspects.

The first is high performance, and the communication speed is made high by using the central supercomputing domain controller. Secondly, the control of the whole vehicle is partitioned from the intelligent platform to realize financial information security, and the safety of the vehicle is stripped from the intelligent safety. Third, the end and the cloud are better integrated, safer and more suitable for globalization, and there is also a very important effect — — The cost can be greatly reduced.

Second, the application of new electronic and electrical architecture. It will reduce the R&D cost of electronic and electrical equipment in Tucki by 50%, shorten the experience period by 30% in the future, and increase the current speed of OTA by 300%.

At the level of intelligent driving, Tucki believes that intelligent driving should ultimately have three abilities:First, it is safe enough; Second, it is widely used; Third, it is cheap enough.

XNGP has realized the first and only mass-produced BEV perception in China — — "XNet" is now based on vision, supplemented by radar, emphasizing perception and ignoring maps.

Some auto-driving solution companies in the industry hand over their solutions to their partners, but they can’t do anything in the end. Because there are two logics to make things "standard": First, the hardware/software must be consistent. Second, the hardware/software must be ultra-low cost.

Different heights, widths and layouts of cars will lead to a lot of data and labels to be adjusted and a lot of parameters to be changed.

"Boom" architecture is making XNGP, the highest level of intelligent assisted driving in Tucki, a "standard" in the future, and it can consider compatibility and upgrade of some platforms in the past. At the same time, it will improve the comprehensive research and development efficiency of Zhijia by 30% and reduce the adaptation cost by 70%.

In 2023, the goal is to take over NGP Expressway less than once every 1,000 kilometers. Now, the "Urban NGP" has been issued in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Shanghai, and it takes over about four times every 100 kilometers, which means that Tucki will not open for four times every 100 kilometers and needs supervision.

The goal for next year is to take over once every 100 kilometers and less than once.

At the level of intelligent cockpit, Tucki Xmart OS has accumulated a good reputation in the industry, whether it’s rapid response and localized full-scene voice, cockpit function service customized by users, or man-machine driving experience.

With SEPA2.0′ s "Booming" global intelligent evolution architecture, Xmart OS cockpit system will become more intelligent, with more advantages in development cost and experience. Tucki revealed that the comprehensive research and development cycle and voice dialogue service of Xmart OS can be shortened by 50% with the blessing of the global intelligent architecture.

Tucki will also bring ChatGPT-like capabilities to cars in the second half of this year.

In the "whirlwind" architecture system, the intelligent cockpit will be further built, and the cost will be greatly reduced, up to 85%.

Sandian

Based on the "whirlwind" architecture,A global 800V high-voltage platform will be standard.

At the same time, it will be compatible with 4C batteries to achieve faster charging speed and battery life of 200km in 5 minutes.

In addition, under the "Boom" structure, Tucki has a brand-new XPower electric drive. Through high-voltage silicon carbide technology, motor magnetic field distribution and optimization of the reducer, the highest efficiency of the electric drive system is 97.5%, and the comprehensive efficiency reaches 92%.

In addition to the battery life improvement brought by efficiency improvement, XPower is quieter and more highly integrated. It brings more spacious interior space, especially the longitudinal head space.

"Boom" platform will also be equipped with X-HP intelligent thermal management system. The battery life in winter is 15% higher than before, and the whole charging power and battery cooling capacity are also improved.

entire car

There have been many changes in the manufacturing process under the "whirlwind" framework.

The most important thing is the front and rear integrated aluminum die casting, followed by the integration of CIB battery body. The whole vehicle is smaller, more compact, safer and lighter, and is compatible with various suspension structures.

Tucki claims that it is the only aluminum die-casting body with front and rear integrated mass production in China. In the past, including Tesla, it was a part of aluminum die casting.

The improvement is that the whole vehicle has no abnormal noise when driving, and the torsional stiffness reaches 42 000 N/,which is 83% higher than that of the traditional body, and the safety is also greatly improved. The number of integrated parts is 161, which reduces the weight of the car body by 17%.

At the same time, the welding production area and the rhythm of parts production process in Tucki can be greatly improved, and the production efficiency is increased by nearly 60 times compared with the original traditional welding process.

He Xiaopeng also admitted for the first time that the compatibility of different vehicle architectures was not considered on the previous vehicle platforms, which led to only one vehicle being produced in Tucki every year.

And now with the whirlwind architecture,By 2025, Tucki can produce many cars., but the cost does not increase (the wheelbase covers 1800-3200mm).

To sum up, whirlwind 2.0, in fact, there are new things. For example, CIB battery chassis integration technology, integrated die-casting body, etc., but not many, not initiated by Tucki, but the industry has reached a consensus that every player must have the ability. This part belongs to Tucki’s "make-up homework".

Xpilot, intelligent cockpit, 800V high-voltage platform, etc., have long been bright, and basically belong to the leading level in the industry. Even for many traditional car companies, the leading generation is not the second generation. This part, if only superficial, is still the traditional He Xiaopeng’s "foresight". But the point that is easy to be overlooked is the real value of Boosting 2.0 architecture: cost reduction.

A set of electronic and electrical architecture and unified body data, first of all, when Tucki’s intelligent ability is adapted to each car, the construction period and cost are greatly reduced.

In terms of manufacturing, it’s really surprising. It’s almost 10 years since Xpeng Motors was founded, and it’s the first time that it really has the whole process capability of platform-based manufacturing.

This will lead to a qualitative leap in vehicle launch cycle, production cost and so on.

Exaggerated, Tucki has made many cars before, but it is still an "internet company". The essence of the achievements is actually the impact and freshness brought by the intelligent concept.

In the past two years, after the transformation of traditional car factories, Tucki’s advantage window period began to be under pressure.

Moreover, Tucki is still in the bottleneck cycle of autonomous driving research and development: the research and development of autonomous driving falls on the scale of data closed loop, map qualification access and so on. In fact, all new and old players in the industry have encountered the same bottleneck. However, in terms of manufacturing system and vehicle platform architecture, traditional car factories have obvious advantages.

Therefore, Boom 2.0 is a sign that Tucki is moving from a new force with a "sword out of the side" to an all-round strength car enterprise. It is also an important means to pull Tucki and old and new rivals back to the same starting line.

Whether Whirling 2.0 can take Tucki to a new level will soon be revealed — —

The first model, Tucki G6, will be launched soon at the Shanghai Auto Show, positioning the crossover SUV and benchmarking Model Y..

The change of product and manufacturing ideas is not all that Tucki made his debut after the in-depth adjustment, but also He Xiaopeng himself.

Peng Yan Peng Yu phase 1

He Xiaopeng didn’t speak like this before.

He Xiaopeng, a "technical house", has made almost all public speeches on autonomous driving potential, intelligent future and how to invest in R&D since he officially joined Tucki & HELIP;

Always enthusiastic about technology and always far-sighted about the future.

However, the G9 model in 2022 has become the total outbreak of the long-standing problems in Tucki.

Top management exchange, department adjustment and power collection … …

He Xiaopeng himself has changed from a futurist to a more conventional car company boss, even more "fireworks".

The first issue of Peng Yan Peng Yu is updated.

Talking about competition: "There are only 8 car companies left in the end"

He Xiaopeng: In the next 5-10 years, everyone is playing the "World Cup", which is believed to be "32 into 8". At that time, many small and beautiful or different sub-brands will be merged into big brands, which will form different brand classifications of the group, and finally form several giant enterprises.

Every enterprise here is based on three to five million. If there were no three to five million automobile enterprises in the world at that time, you would "not be able to live".

"32 into 8", only a small number of large groups can stay. Under the "Boom" framework, what will Xpeng Motors use to challenge brands such as Geely and Great Wall?

He Xiaopeng: We should ask them how to challenge us. Although we didn’t do well last year, we were able to rank 10th in terms of new energy risks in China. Compared with them, we have few models and few sales platforms. In fact, the very big shortcoming of the original new car-making enterprises is that the basic systems of many cars are not well done, such as sales points, after-sales points and supply chains. In the past five years, we have more than one factory. We have built a supply chain and initially started to build an after-sales system.

Why is it getting harder and harder for new car manufacturers? It will be very difficult to initialize a car from 0 to 1. We have done most of the work from 0 to 1. The later research and development efficiency will be improved. I think that in terms of intelligent technology, Tucki stands out. What it didn’t do well before is to control the cost. Doing this well and making it more efficient and organized will have great advantages. It is the most important thing for me to figure out how to run fast without wrestling under the new structure.

"The annual sales volume of 3 million is only the admission ticket for car companies". What is the logic behind this conclusion? Why did Tucki get this ticket?

He Xiaopeng: Personally, I think that if car companies also sell low-end models, they even need 5 million tickets, because high-end models have high gross profit and income, and they can live if they sell 3 million cars a year, but there are both low-end and high-end models, and they have to sell 5 million cars to live.

There is a scale value of logic, hardware consistency and software consistency. In the past, hardware didn’t have to be very consistent, and seven achievements were enough, that is, platformization and modularization. If the software achieves seven achievements, it will vomit blood. In the past, there was no software for self-research in cars.

In such a system, if the ability of intelligence is getting stronger and stronger, and the space for change is getting bigger and bigger, it will produce platformization and ecologicalization, and the original hardware logic will be subverted. In fact, this change has occurred in the field of mobile phones and mobile Internet in China.

Cars can’t appear today, because no car can achieve open, high-level intelligent hardware and stability, and there are a huge number, such as 5 million and 10 million, but there will be one in the future. This involves a lot of complicated thinking. I think 3 million vehicles may be the lowest line.

Do the last eight car companies have a list? What qualities do they need?

He Xiaopeng: I think there are at least three basic conditions to be shortlisted:First, the customer-oriented innovative architecture system; Second, the global scale sales ability; Third, brand-new organization and management ability for software and hardware.

In fact, cost power I think is talking about management ability. For example, how is the cost ability of hardware and software controlled? Mainly controlled by the R&D team. From my point of view, technology and manufacturing belong to research and development, while the ability of sales and scale lies in the marketing team. These three abilities, I think, are a foundation. Under this basic logic, we can see more than 100 enterprises now, and who can be shortlisted.

It took Tucki only a few months to see many places that could be optimized, which greatly boosted the internal morale. The second half of last year can be said to be very lucky, and fortunately let us see more problems.

Last year, it sold 120,000 units, ranking tenth in China. If there are 10,000 more units, it will probably rank seventh in terms of risk and first in terms of new forces in China. But in fact, the first one is useless. Even 100,000 or 50,000 units can’t survive. To achieve 3 million, 5 million or 10 million units, we have to see what core competencies are still lacking.

Talking about autonomous driving: "All problems will be solved in five years"

Recently, some voices feel that autonomous driving seems to be something that will appear very late, and it is of little significance at present?

He Xiaopeng: I still insist that in five years, the ability of autonomous driving will be greatly improved.

This will take time to prove. Five years ago and ten years ago, how many people thought that new energy vehicles would have today’s achievements? I used to say that what can beat the search engine, but later I asked what can beat the recommendation engine and beat a thing, never in the same way.

Today, it can be said that no autonomous driving is really done well. First, it is difficult in the city, second, it is expensive, and third, there are few supported models, but all these problems will be solved within five years.

How do you say that Tucki’s autonomous driving is "far ahead"?

He Xiaopeng: What do you mean by far ahead? There is a technical level and a market level. Just mentioned in the technical field, many people just talk a lot, but no customers say how to use it, which means that intelligent driving is just a technical marketing point in a certain way.

On the technical level, the most important judgment is, first, how many scenarios can users use? The second is how is the user’s word of mouth? What is the permeability and activity? The third is what is the cost? In the end, the cost is a very important point, which reflects the ability of a technology.

From the perspective of the whole market, the reputation of customers and the number of takeovers per 100 kilometers fed back from the market are very important to me. In May and June this year, Tucki will launch an NGP rewritten with XNGP to ensure the consistency of experience. The effect of our test is that a thousand kilometers driver can’t take over once. So when can we reach unmanned driving? Take over once every 100,000 kilometers on the expressway. Under ordinary road conditions, it is feasible to take over once every 10,000 kilometers. This is my point of view.

Talking about planning: "I suddenly found that I couldn’t live any longer"

He Xiaopeng: The whole "Boom" architecture will include many cars in Tucki from the end of last year to 2025, and customers will feel that the cars are more beautiful, with lower cost, more unified intelligence, faster upgrade and more space.

First, customer-oriented standardization. In the future, our global 800V high-voltage silicon carbide platform will be fully standard, whether it is 300,000 cars or 100,000 cars.

Second, we want to strengthen our ability at ultra-low cost, and spend the same 100 yuan to strengthen our ability by 20%, but the cost is 30% higher, which is not a skill. The ability level is the same, and the cost is 30% and 40% lower.

In addition, one of the challenges that Tucki faced before was that there were too many configurations. We expect that there will be only a few configurations for this year’s car, and only two configurations for next year’s car, and only one configuration for future cars. All the intelligent capabilities are consistent, and there is no worry about getting started.

Repeated "cost reduction", is it convenient to disclose at what node Tucki will achieve breakeven?

He Xiaopeng: It will break even in 2025. If there is a huge scale growth, I can push this node back. I think the ultimate success is a huge scale, not a small scale.

Xpeng Motors has made adjustments. During this process, have you made any personal changes?

He Xiaopeng: I used to want to live, and it would be nice to live well. Now I think living well is death. It’s just a question of whether to die in three years or five years.

I used to think that an automobile company would live well with a revenue of 100 billion to 200 billion a year, which is very good for ordinary enterprises, but then I suddenly found that I couldn’t live any longer.

In terms of change, the first one is that the perspective is different. The second important point is that I do a lot of things myself. The third is to think more about the reasons behind it, whether it comes from management, organization or the system of values.

　　Core points:

　　■ The supreme leader’s thought of strengthening the army is the "military chapter" of the supreme leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, the latest achievement of the party’s military guiding theory, the guiding ideology of contemporary China’s military practice and military theory research, and the fundamental follow-up and beacon tower guiding the modernization of our military theory.

　　■ Combat power is composed of three basic elements: people, weapons and equipment and the combination of people and weapons and equipment. To improve combat effectiveness, we should not only attach importance to the elements themselves, but also attach importance to the combination of elements. Only by organically combining people with weapons and equipment can we form greater combat effectiveness than the sum of individual elements. Advanced military organizational form has always been a powerful lever to generate combat effectiveness and a multiplier to give full play to the overall advantages of people and weapons.

　　■ Our Party has always believed that the decisive factor in a war is people, not things. With the development of the times, especially the evolution of war forms, the importance of weapons is rising, but this has not changed the decisive factor of winning the war, but has strengthened the leading role of people.

　　■ The modernization of military personnel in our army is not based on the "western-centered theory" and fully imitates the modernization of military personnel in the west, but based on China’s own reality and taking ourselves as the main task, and realized the modernization of military personnel on the road of strengthening the army with China characteristics.

?

　　editorial comment/note：In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly pointed out that at a new historical starting point, it is necessary to "comprehensively promote the modernization of military theory, military organization, military personnel and weapons and equipment". This has given national defense and military modernization a brand-new scientific connotation. Guided by the supreme leader’s thought of strengthening the army, we should accelerate the historic leap to build a world-class army and strive to achieve the party’s goal of strengthening the army in the new era.

　　Adhere to the road of modernization of military theory with the characteristics of our army

　　Chen Dongheng, a researcher at the Institute of Military Political Work, Academy of Military Sciences.

　　In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader put the overall modernization of military theory at the top of the four components of national defense and military modernization, which showed its important position and role. To unswervingly follow the road of strengthening the army with China characteristics, realize the party’s goal of strengthening the army in the new era and build a world-class army, we must firmly grasp the modernization of military theory and strive to lead the modernization of the whole national defense and army with advanced military theory.

　　Adhere to the fundamental guidance of the idea of strengthening the army. Our army is a people’s army founded and led by the Communist Party of China (CPC) and armed with the Party’s advanced ideology and theory. The modernization of our army’s military theory must adhere to the guidance of the party’s innovative theory and always advance in the correct direction guided by the party. The supreme leader’s thought of strengthening the army is the "military chapter" of the supreme leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, the latest achievement of the party’s military guiding theory, the guiding ideology of contemporary China’s military practice and military theory research, and the fundamental follow-up and beacon tower guiding the modernization of our military theory. We must firmly establish the guiding position of the supreme leader’s thought of strengthening the army in comprehensively promoting the modernization of military theory in the new era, deeply understand and grasp a series of new major judgments, new theoretical generalizations and new strategic arrangements contained in the supreme leader’s thought of strengthening the army, constantly enhance political identity, theoretical identity, ideological identity and emotional identity, and effectively transform it into a powerful spiritual motive force and ideological weapon for accelerating the development of advanced military theoretical system with our military characteristics; We must persist in applying the Marxist standpoint, viewpoint and method, which runs through the supreme leader’s thought of strengthening the army, to all aspects of military theoretical innovation, constantly improve our ability to observe, analyze and solve problems, adapt to the new situation, meet new challenges and solve new contradictions, and strive to serve the practice of national defense and army building and military struggle with high-quality theoretical research results; We must put forward new ideas, new viewpoints and new tactics closely around the strategic task of realizing the party’s goal of strengthening the army in the new era and building a world-class army in an all-round way.Promoting the new development of military practice with innovative military theory.

　　Adhere to the fundamental standard of combat effectiveness. Military theory serves the construction of combat effectiveness. Talking about modernization without the fundamental direction of strengthening the army and winning the war is water without a source and wood without a foundation. Throughout the world, all military theories with strong vitality lead the times and give birth to strong combat effectiveness. It is the glorious tradition of our party and army to develop military theory with the focus on strengthening the army and winning the war. The party’s military theory has been innovated and developed with the development of the times, leading our army from victory to victory. In the new era, it is an important topic of the times how our military theory can shine more brilliantly under the guidance of the supreme leader’s thought of strengthening the army. To answer this topic of the times, we must persist in integrating theory with practice, face the battlefield, face the army and face the future, closely focus on the decision-making needs of the CPC Central Committee and the Central Military Commission, and closely focus on President Xi’s "What is the winning mechanism of information warfare, how to plan and implement integrated joint operations, how to build a modern military power system with China characteristics, how to improve the scientific level of military management, and how to enhance the sense of the times and effectiveness of political work" and so on, and come up with real measures to accelerate the development of modern military theory with our military characteristics.

　　Adhere to the scientific method of overall consideration. To promote the modernization of military theory, we must constantly optimize the research mode, improve methods and methods, and strive to improve quality and efficiency. We must adhere to the close integration of research on major practical problems with basic theoretical research, not only insist on urgent use before construction, but also focus on the urgent needs of national defense and army building, the important and difficult problems that troops and officers and men have strongly reflected, and focus on the major practical problems that restrict the construction of combat effectiveness, so as to achieve quick results and more results, so that military theory can play a realistic role, and focus on the basic problems that need to be solved in building a world-class army, and thoroughly study the winning mechanism of information warfare. Study the development and application of high and new technology and its influence on the war, do a solid job in the long-term work of laying the foundation management, and come up with original military theories with distinctive China characteristics, leading the development trend of the times and adapting to national defense and military modernization. Adhere to the deep integration of military theory research and military science and technology research, combine the traditional methods of qualitative research of military theory with the modern means of quantitative research of military science and technology, improve the accuracy and scientificity of military theory research with modern scientific and technological means, and provide the correct direction guidance and scientific method support for military science and technology innovation with advanced military theory. Adhere to the mutual promotion of theoretical innovation and practical creation, actively promote the transformation and application of military theory, and strive to test the truth and highlight the value in the vivid practice of forming combat effectiveness; Boldly carry out military practice, find problems, solve difficult problems and sum up experience in vivid practical exploration, provide solid practical support for military theory innovation, and promote the development, progress and perfection of military theory.

　　Adhere to the broad vision of ancient and modern China and foreign countries. Only by extensively absorbing all outstanding achievements of human civilization can military theory grow into a brilliant flower. The military theory in the new era is more open and inclusive. If it is rigid, closed and conservative, it will inevitably fall behind the times. To promote the modernization of military theory in an all-round way, we must look to the future and accelerate the formation of a military theoretical system with the characteristics of the times, leadership and uniqueness. It is necessary to properly handle the relationship between inheriting tradition and pioneering and innovating, inherit and develop Marxist military theory, fully absorb the excellent Chinese traditional military culture, systematically sum up the successful experience of our army’s revolution, construction and reform, put forward new ideas, reveal new laws and form new theories; Handle the relationship between learning and self-reliance, scientifically judge the basic trend of the international strategic pattern, accurately grasp the pulse of the world military development era, learn from the beneficial practices of the world military powers with me as the mainstay, and lead the military practice to overtake in corners with military theoretical innovation; Handle the relationship between the present and the long-term, closely combine the world military development and our army’s construction practice, explore and predict the future laws of war and the laws of war guidance, come up with forward-looking and leading advanced theories, provide scientific basis for actual war preparation, and let Marxist military theory radiate more brilliant truth light in the practice of strengthening the army.

　　Deeply understand and grasp the modernization of military organizational form

　　Professor Ling Shengyin of Army Command College

　　The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China focuses on the unity of strengthening the country and the army, and regards the modernization of military organizational form as a strategic focus to comprehensively promote national defense and military modernization, which highlights the extreme importance of the modernization of military organizational form. In this regard, we must profoundly understand and comprehensively understand and implement it in the practice of strengthening the army.

　　Advanced military organizational form is a powerful lever for the generation of combat effectiveness. Combat power is composed of three basic elements: people, weapons and equipment and the combination of people and weapons and equipment. To improve combat effectiveness, we should not only attach importance to the elements themselves, but also attach importance to the combination of elements. Only by organically combining people with weapons and equipment can we form greater combat effectiveness than the sum of individual elements. Throughout the history of world military development, armies with advanced organizational forms are often invincible, while those with backward organizational forms are vulnerable. Advanced military organizational form has always been a powerful lever to generate combat effectiveness and a multiplier to give full play to the overall advantages of people and weapons and equipment. Since its founding, the People’s Army has made long-term unremitting efforts in the development and optimization of organizational form, and achieved remarkable results, effectively liberating and developing combat effectiveness, which has become an important guarantee for our army to overcome the strong with the weak, the superior with the inferior, and the victory from victory to victory. At the same time, it must be noted that our army as a whole still belongs to the organizational structure of land warfare, homeland defense and manpower-intensive, and has not completely come out of the mode of relying on heavy forces and winning by quantity. Promoting the modernization of the military organizational form is the process that the military organizational mode, institutional arrangement and operation mode move towards the contemporary advanced level. Its fundamental purpose is to solve the institutional obstacles, structural contradictions and policy problems that restrict the generation and improvement of our military’s combat effectiveness, and constantly optimize the military organizational structure to adapt to the development of the times and the advanced organizational form required by the information war to liberate and develop combat effectiveness, and to liberate and enhance the vitality of the military.Facing the new trend of the accelerated evolution of modern war forms and the new situation of China’s development from big to strong, we must further promote the modernization of military organizational forms and provide strong institutional support for building a world-class army and winning military competitive advantages.

　　The main characteristics of the modernization of military organizational form. At present, the new military revolution in the world is developing rapidly, and the military high-tech with information technology as the core is changing with each passing day. The trend of long-range precision, intelligence, stealth and unmanned weapons and equipment is more obvious, and the war form is accelerating to evolve into information war, and integrated joint operations have become the basic combat form. In line with this, the organizational form of the army is also undergoing new changes, showing new characteristics. First, the quantity and scale are lean and moderate. To measure whether an army is strong or not depends on its scale and quality. It is the general trend to reduce the size of the army, improve its quality and shape an army with smaller tail and stronger teeth. In recent years, some military powers have proposed to build a high-tech, information-based, professional, small but sophisticated, well-equipped army with rapid response and joint combat capability, all for the purpose of reducing quantity and improving quality and optimizing the organizational form of the army. Second, the strength structure is scientific and reasonable. Structure determines function, and the strength structure of an army is an important factor to win. In modern warfare, information advantage has become a decisive advantage. The adjustment of military organizational form must conform to this general trend, optimize the structure of arms and services, coordinate the construction of traditional and new combat forces, coordinate the construction of combat forces and combat support forces, and promote the leap of combat effectiveness through the overall reconstruction of power structure. Third, the troops are organized into small and versatile. Scientific and reasonable strength is an important advantage of military competition. Only by optimizing the formation of troops, changing the old formation mode, and promoting the formation of troops in the direction of enrichment, synthesis, versatility and flexibility,Only by making the combination of various elements more in line with the law of combat effectiveness generation in the information age can we win the initiative in strategic competition and future wars. Fourth, the command system is joint and efficient. The future information warfare is a confrontation between systems, which requires the military organization to have the ability to integrate various combat forces, combat units and combat elements into a whole. To this end, it has become the direction of military efforts of all countries to build an integrated joint combat system with seamless links of operational elements and independent cooperation of combat platforms, shorten command links and improve command efficiency.

　　Focusing on the goal of strengthening the military, promoting the modernization of the military organizational form. The key to advancing the modernization of the military organizational form is to hold the bull’s-nose of the party’s goal of strengthening the military in the new era, that is, to build a people’s army that listens to the party’s command, can win battles, and has a good style of work. The modernization of military organizational form should focus on the goal of strengthening the military, carry out around the goal of strengthening the military, insist on testing it with the goal of strengthening the military, and ensure that practical results are achieved under the guidance of the goal of strengthening the military. We must adhere to the correct political direction, maintain strategic strength on what to change and what not to change, and never make subversive mistakes on fundamental issues. To promote the modernization of our army’s organizational form, we should better uphold the party’s absolute leadership over the army, the nature and purpose of the people’s army, the glorious tradition and fine style of our army, the responsibility system for the chairman of the Military Commission, and ensure that the command of the highest leadership of the army is concentrated in the CPC Central Committee, the Central Military Commission and President Xi. Focus on being able to fight and win. Firmly establish the idea of demanding combat effectiveness from organizational form, put the main direction of organizational form modernization on the weak links that restrict the generation, improvement and release of combat effectiveness, let the vitality of all combat effectiveness elements compete with generate, and let all sources of combat effectiveness fully flow in. It is necessary to implement the general principles of the military commission’s overall management, the main battle of the theater, and the main construction of the service, complete all major tasks of the reform of the military scale structure and strength, and provide a strong organizational guarantee for building a people’s army that can win the information war and effectively fulfill its mission. It is a distinctive feature and political advantage of the people’s army to inherit and carry forward the fine style of our army.However, it is not enough to inherit and carry forward the fine style only by experience and consciousness. It is essential to have organizational guarantee and rely on reasonable organizational structure to implement and inherit it. In a word, only by constantly advancing the modernization of the organizational form of the army can we truly ensure that our army’s blood line will last forever, its foundation will last forever, and its advantages will last forever.

　　Let the decisive factors of winning the war catch the modern express train

　　Liu Guangming, a researcher at Socialism with Chinese characteristics Theoretical System Research Center of National Defense University.

　　Based on a clear understanding of the importance of decisive factors in winning the war, the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China included "modernization of military personnel" in the content system of comprehensively promoting the modernization of national defense and the army, thus realizing the unification of the subject and object of the modernization of national defense and the army.

　　Our party has always believed that the decisive factor in a war is people, not things. With the development of the times, especially the evolution of war forms, the importance of weapons is rising, but this has not changed the decisive factor of winning the war, but has strengthened the leading role of people. President Xi emphasized: "On the issue of winning the war, people are the decisive factor. No matter how the conditions of the times develop and how the form of war evolves, this article will never change. " "When we say that weapons and equipment are becoming more and more important, it doesn’t mean that people can’t play a decisive role, but that human factors and weapons factors are more and more closely combined. The most typical examples are drones and intelligence. UAVs are not really unmanned, and intelligence is not that weapons become people, but that weapons are in the foreground and people are in the background. People’s intelligence is transplanted into weapons, and people and weapons are highly integrated. In this sense, attaching importance to the weapon factor means attaching importance to the human factor. " Our party’s proposal and comprehensive promotion of the modernization of military personnel is a scientific decision made by insight into the winning factors of future wars.

　　The modernization of military personnel requires the quality and ability of military personnel to adapt to the mission and task of the people’s army in the new era. The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward the strategic arrangement of national defense and military modernization, which means that when the national defense and military modernization are basically realized by 2035, the quality of our military personnel should be basically modernized simultaneously; By the middle of this century, when the people’s army is built into a world-class army in an all-round way, the quality of our military personnel should reach the world-class level simultaneously. The modernization of military personnel is not only the modernization of military quality, but also the modernization of all-round quality such as ideological and political quality, military professional quality, scientific and cultural quality and physical and psychological quality. In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, President Xi emphasized "training revolutionary soldiers with soul, ability, blood and morality in the new era", and pointed out the requirements of the times for the quality and ability of military personnel, which provided important guidance for promoting the modernization of military personnel.

　　Military personnel in the new era should be multi-faceted and multi-level. To promote the modernization of military personnel, it is necessary to greatly improve the quality and ability of not only combat forces but also support and support forces, and to match the quality and ability of not only active forces but also non-active forces with their functions and missions. President Xi has repeatedly stressed that command training should be emphasized, and the training of joint operational command talents and new combat forces should be the top priority of the talent strategic project. To promote the modernization of military personnel, we should pay special attention to the modernization of the quality and ability of commanders, especially senior and intermediate commanders. Needless to say, most commanders at all levels of our army have not experienced actual combat experience, and there are relatively few talents who really know how to fight and command, especially those who are proficient in joint operations command. Problems such as "two abilities are not enough" (our army’s ability to fight modern wars is not enough, and cadres at all levels are not enough to command modern wars) and "five noes" (they can’t judge the situation, understand the intentions of superiors, make up their minds to fight, deploy troops and deal with emergencies) need to be solved. We must conform to the requirements of strengthening the army in the new era, highlight the training of joint operational command talents and new combat forces, and promote the overall modernization of military personnel with the modernization of commanders.

　　Promoting the modernization of military personnel is a systematic project. To promote the modernization of the military personnel training system, we should insist on grasping talents means grasping combat effectiveness, improve the classification of human resources, improve the trinity new military personnel training system, thoroughly study and grasp the training law of joint operational command personnel, focus on cultivating command personnel with strategic vision and innovative thinking, and effectively improve the operational command ability of commanders and staff officers at all levels. It is necessary to promote the modernization of the military training system, adhere to the leadership, adhere to actual combat training and joint training, adhere to the principle of training, strictly manage training, correct training style, innovate training methods, improve training guarantee, strictly supervise training, improve the actual combat level of military training, and forge elite troops who can come at the call, fight when they come, and win the battle. It is necessary to promote the modernization of military human resources policy system, deepen the reform of major policy systems such as officer professionalization system, civilian personnel system and military service system, focus on professionalism, and further improve the systems of selection, training, encouragement and retirement; Focusing on risks, we should build a mechanism to protect rights and interests and compensate casualties that matches military operations such as combat missions, drills, peacekeeping and stability, and emergency rescue and disaster relief; Focus on dedication, give full consideration to the sacrifice and dedication of the military profession, and give corresponding preferential policies such as political honor, welfare treatment, family support and follow-up development.

　　It should be pointed out that the modernization of military personnel in our army is not based on the "western-centered theory" and imitates the modernization of military personnel in the west in an all-round way, but based on China’s own reality and taking me as the mainstay, and realized the modernization of military personnel on the road of strengthening the army with China characteristics. Upholding the party’s absolute leadership over the army is the soul of our army that can never be changed and the lifeblood that can never be lost. Serving the people wholeheartedly is the fundamental purpose of our army. At any time and under any circumstances, these must never change. With the advancement of modernization, military personnel’s consciousness of military spirit and purpose can not be weakened, but should also be strengthened with the times. Looking forward to the future, by the middle of this century, when the people’s army is built into a world-class army in an all-round way, it is not only the time when the quality and ability of our military personnel have been upgraded to the world-class level as a whole, but also the time when the military spirit, true colors, initial intentions and missions of our military personnel have been fully demonstrated.

Consolidate the important foundation of modernization of weapons and equipment

　　Zeng Huafeng, a professor at National University of Defense Technology

　　Weapons and equipment are an important symbol of military modernization, an important foundation for military struggle preparation, an important support for national security and national rejuvenation, and an important weight for international strategic games. Building a people’s army with advanced equipment is the goal pursued by our party. Focusing on realizing the Party’s goal of strengthening the army in the new era, President Xi profoundly grasped the development trend of the new military revolution in the world and the new changes in the national security situation, put the construction of weapons and equipment in a strategic position of giving priority to the development of national defense and army modernization, and clearly put forward that "we should make greater efforts to promote the army through science and technology, persist in striving for combat effectiveness through scientific and technological innovation" and "accelerate the construction of a weapons and equipment system that meets the requirements of information warfare and mission fulfillment". In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, it further emphasized the idea of "establishing science and technology as the core fighting power" and "comprehensively promoting the modernization of weapons and equipment", which provided fundamental follow-up and path guidance for building the people’s army into a world-class army in an all-round way by the middle of this century.

　　Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has attached great importance to the construction of weapons and equipment, vigorously implemented the strategy of rejuvenating the army through science and technology, developed strategic frontier technologies, strengthened forward-looking, pioneering, exploratory and subversive research on major technologies and tackled key problems with new concept weapons and equipment, achieved an overall leap in the construction of weapons and equipment system, formed unique advantages in some strategic areas, and emerged a number of innovative achievements that advanced in the world and led the future development, thus China’s national defense strength reached a big step. However, compared with the requirements of safeguarding national security and developing interests, winning the information war, and the world’s military powers, our military equipment level still lags far behind in many aspects. At present, national defense and army building have entered a new era, and the construction of our army’s weapons and equipment is in a period of great strategic opportunities and a critical period of realizing leap-forward development. We must take the supreme leader’s thought of strengthening the army as the guide, take the military strategic policy under the new situation as the overall guide, seize the opportunity, work hard, catch up, and strive to achieve "overtaking in corners" and "overtaking in lanes".

　　To comprehensively promote the modernization of weapons and equipment, we must unswervingly follow the road of independent innovation with China characteristics. We must firmly grasp the strategic base of independent innovation of national defense science and technology, vigorously promote scientific and technological progress and innovation, and greatly improve the independent innovation capability of national defense science and technology and weapons and equipment. Take the weak links as the main direction and breakthrough point to promote independent innovation, concentrate on implementing major special projects and major projects in some areas that are easily controlled by people, and deploy a number of major scientific and technological projects that reflect the national strategic intention, and work hard for a long time. Strengthen basic research oriented to national strategic needs, intensify basic research and cutting-edge technology research in the fields of big data, artificial intelligence, biological intersection and micro-nano materials, strengthen source reserves, and accumulate stamina for the sustainable development of national defense technology and weapons and equipment. Closely follow the development trend of world science and technology, improve scientific and technological acumen and cognition, actively discover, cultivate and apply subversive technologies that change the "rules of the game" of future wars, and seize the commanding heights of military science and technology development. Adhere to the principle of "you hit your enemy, I will hit mine", focus on developing "one trick" to defeat the enemy’s soft spots and make the enemy afraid, focus on building a "killer weapon" weapon and equipment system, accelerate the construction of strategic forces and asymmetric checks and balances, and continuously improve the strategic ability to effectively deter the enemy and control the enemy.

　　To comprehensively promote the modernization of weapons and equipment, we must take ensuring that we can fight and win the battle as the fundamental direction. We must persist in facing the battlefield, the troops and the future, and actively aim at tomorrow’s war to speed up the development of weapons and equipment. Give full play to the traction role of operational demand, establish and improve the operational demand generation mechanism with the characteristics of our army, and consider and arrange the weapons and equipment system, scale and structure according to the combat tasks, opponents and operational environment in all directions and according to what, how and with whom to fight in the future, so as to ensure that the weapons and equipment developed and produced can meet the requirements of winning future wars. Firmly establish the idea of information leading, system support, elite soldiers fighting and joint victory, focus on improving the joint combat capability and global combat capability based on network information system, promote the construction of weapons and equipment with the contribution rate to the combat system as the standard, promote the construction of new combat forces, accelerate the development of military intelligence, and seek breakthroughs in improving new combat effectiveness. Constantly improve and optimize the system structure of weapons and equipment, strengthen the construction of standardization, serialization and generalization, strengthen the systematic, normalized and practical application, improve the scientific level of weapons and equipment quality and system structure, strive to achieve the best combination of people and weapons and equipment, and promote the formation of combat capability and support capability of new equipment.

　　To comprehensively promote the modernization of weapons and equipment, we must focus on the development of integration of defense and civilian technologies. It is necessary to regard the fields of national defense science and technology and weapons and equipment as the focus of integration of defense and civilian technologies’s development and an important symbol to measure integration of defense and civilian technologies’s development level, vigorously carry out collaborative innovation between the military and the people, build an integrated national strategic system and capability, and form an overall resultant force to comprehensively promote the modernization of weapons and equipment. Do a good job in top-level design and strategic planning, accelerate the establishment of unified leadership, military-civilian coordination, demand docking and resource sharing mechanisms to promote integration of defense and civilian technologies’s development, improve integration of defense and civilian technologies’s organizational management system, work operation system and policy system, and solidly promote the in-depth development of integration of defense and civilian technologies in the fields of national defense technology and weapons and equipment. Focus on seeking new advantages in strategic competition, promote the expansion of integration from traditional fields to emerging fields, improve the core competitiveness in the fields of ocean, space, network information, biology, new energy, etc., work together to build a maritime power, a space power and a network power, and form a multi-dimensional, coordinated and coordinated development of emerging fields. Improve the national defense industrial system, optimize the military industrial structure, build a number of integration of defense and civilian technologies scientific and technological innovation centers and industrial parks that integrate Industry-University-Research, give full play to the maximum benefits of the transformation and application of scientific and technological achievements, spawn new technologies and incubate new industries, drive resource elements to converge to new security, cutting-edge technologies and high-end industries, strive to achieve the modernization of weapons and equipment in line with the national modernization process, and develop national defense strength and economic strength simultaneously, thus providing strong material and technical support for realizing the dream of strengthening the military with Chinese dream.
