At Sinotruk, there is a remarkable group of women: they are mothers who respond tenderly to their children's video calls, daughters who are the last to be seated at New Year's dinner tables, and wives whose photos in work uniforms fill their husbands' phone galleries.
When they tuck their hair under safety helmets and spread blueprints before them, they become front-line craftswomen racing against time, engineers pursuing excellence, and marketing pioneers working around the clock... They shine brilliantly in various roles across different positions.
With their professionalism, resilience, and passion, these women support 'half the sky' at Sinotruk, exemplifying the responsibility and grace of modern female employees while contributing their female strength to Sinotruk's journey toward world-class excellence.
Women's Imprints on the Wheels
As Sinotruk's wheels roll forward, countless 'her-stories' are being written.
New energy represents a crucial field in Sinotruk's transformation toward high-end, intelligent, and green development, leading industry reform and providing a broad stage for female heroes to demonstrate their capabilities. Jia Xueyun, a 'technical pacesetter' at Sinotruk's New Energy Commercial Vehicle Company, has completed the development of over 60 intelligent high-voltage distribution boxes during her work on new energy system integration. Her independently designed intelligent high-voltage distribution box was successfully deployed on the Yellow River hydrogen fuel snow waxing vehicle at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics and achieved batch installation on overseas single-sided port vehicles, bringing intelligent and efficient solutions to the industry and society.
On Sinotruk's production front lines, numerous advancing female heroes are equally active. Lin Man, a foundry worker at Sinotruk Jinan Forming Plant, has cultivated her casting position for 17 years. On the cylinder block core and cylinder head core production lines, she is responsible for core modification and assembly, crucial steps in ensuring molding product quality that demand extreme precision in craftsmanship. Through diligent study and repeated experiments, she developed more efficient core modification tools, stabilizing core modification and assembly quality, ensuring product excellence, and demonstrating the spirit of craftsmanship.
Sinotruk's 'Her-Stories' extend to even more distant places. Liu Chao, a sales manager in Sinotruk's Angola region, spent 317 days abroad last year, covering Angolan cities including Lobito, Benguela, Lubango, Malanje, and Saurimo. Through door-to-door visits and patient explanations of Chinese heavy-duty trucks' advantages, she secured over 500 orders from loyal customers, not only promoting Sinotruk's local business development but also building trust in Chinese manufacturing and brands.
The Most 'Capable' Female Teams
'Women' also means 'we.' At Sinotruk, numerous female teams full of wisdom and passion work together, bringing new vitality to Sinotruk's development through their unique perspectives, meticulous thinking, and determination matching their male counterparts.
Vehicle styling design is a challenging field requiring solid professional expertise, keen market insight, and strong stress resistance. The Creative and CMF Design Module Team at Sinotruk Automotive Research Institute comprises 15 female employees with an average age under 30. This young team incorporates women's unique aesthetic sensibilities into commercial vehicle design, focusing on details and innovation. They have designed various new models including long-nose trucks, Yellow River new energy vehicles, and TX engineering vehicles, creating products that combine aesthetics with practicality and receiving enthusiastic market response.
Sinotruk Jinan Special Vehicle Company features a 'hardcore team' dominated by women. The Vehicle Body Line Team One, with an average age of 38, consists of female workers who each master more than four position skills, playing irreplaceable roles in core processes like cab assembly and vehicle harness installation. During peak production months, they achieved a monthly capacity peak of 877 units, setting historical records. In 2024, they broke production records with 8,030 cab assemblies, becoming a benchmark in the company.
The 35KV Substation Maintenance Team at Sinotruk Manufacturing Engineering Department's Power Maintenance Center is truly an 'all-female crew.' They handle substation equipment inspection, maintenance, and monitoring - crucial tasks for stable power supply in the light truck park that allow no errors. They conduct 24/7 inspections and actively implement energy-saving measures. Through precise equipment parameter control and old equipment renovation, they save approximately 1.5 million yuan in annual electricity costs and help the company avoid potential economic losses of over 3.5 million yuan due to power supply issues, laying a foundation of power with dedication and professionalism for the smooth operation of the park.
Balancing Career and Family
Career is pursuit, family is foundation. Sinotruk's female employees excel in their professional roles while leading teams to new heights, and at home, they are warm pillars supporting their families with love.
Jiang Hong and Du Shizhang are a 'special' couple - intimate partners and collaborative colleagues. Du Shizhang pioneers Sinotruk's internationalization, leading his team to overcome hundreds of technical standard certification challenges abroad. Meanwhile, in Jinan, thousands of miles aways, Jiang Hong, as a 'pioneer' in Sinotruk Jinan Special Vehicle Company's network marketing department, has created over 2,000 original videos showcasing Chinese industrial equipment's capabilities. Through multi-million-level traffic pools, she has discovered precise leads across three continents, building a digital marketing matrix integrating short video creation, live streaming marketing, and data analysis, bestowing upon the traditional manufacturing industry the digital wings to soar.
In Sinotruk, there are many dual-income families like that of Yin Bin and Zou Quan. Both are employed in the Strategic Customer Department and the Jinan Truck Sales Department, respectively, and they have a lovely daughter. They place great importance on family values and set an example for their child through their actions. During a visit to the Sinotruk Museum, their child was deeply fascinated by the diverse range of heavy-duty trucks and aspired to become a 'truck person' like her parents, contributing to the development of the automotive industry in the motherland. This moment completes a cycle of inheritance, where generations of Sinotruk employees integrate their personal dreams and family aspirations into the company's journey toward becoming a world-class entity, forming a powerful force that drives national and ethnic development.
This is a microcosm of countless families at Sinotruk and a reflection of numerous female employees who have established their careers and families. Wives are no longer 'sacrifices' in their careers, nor are husbands 'invisible' in their families; they support and accomplish each other, becoming each other's strongest backing. They are no longer constrained by traditional roles, creating a remarkable narrative of mutual pursuit of career and family.
Every woman in her position shines brightly; in every aspect of her life, she embodies strength. On the monument of the new era's manufacturing industry, every shining coordinate bears her name. The outstanding women of Sinotruk are forging 'great national heavy equipment' with the grace of modern professional women, allowing 'her power' to shine in China's high-end equipment manufacturing industry. Let us pay tribute to these women who break gender barriers and set industry benchmarks!
As a leading enterprise in China's commercial vehicle industry, Sinotruk will continue to build a diverse ecosystem, cultivating fertile ground for female employees to achieve their careers. We strive to ensure that every woman can flourish and realize her value in the grand vision of a strong manufacturing nation, collectively painting the most brilliant chapter of women's achievements!
