Recently, with the signing of an investment cooperation agreement between Huadu District with Shandong Golden Empire Precision Machinery Technology Co., Ltd, an intelligent manufacturing project for AI computing liquid cooling plates, with a total investment of 1 billion yuan and an expected annual output value of about 1.6 billion yuan, has officially settled in Guangzhou Huadu Auto City. This marks a solid step forward for Huadu in cultivating the artificial intelligence industry and planning the development in the new track of computing power and cooling. It is also an important achievement of Huadu’s efforts to step on the foundation of strategic industrial clusters, and high-quality industrial carriers, to expand emerging tracks and cultivate new quality productive forces.

　　Company with hardcore power

　　Chooses Huadu as the place to explore new track

　　Golden Empire is mainly engaged in the research, development, production, and sales of precision mechanical components. With its main products ranging from high-end bearing precision components to automotive precision parts, the company is a leading enterprise of the country in the field of high-end bearing precision components. Equipped with national-level enterprise technology center and postdoctoral research station and other innovation platforms, it is a national high-tech enterprise and a specialized, refined, differentiated, and innovative "Little Giant" enterprise, and has stable strategic partnerships with the world's top eight bearing companies including SKF and Schaeffler, and well-known domestic and international automakers such as BorgWarner, ZF, NIO, and BYD.

　　The company continued its high growth trend in the first half of 2026, with operating revenue increasing by 37.28% year-on-year. Especially, the automotive precision components business achieved revenue of 607 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 78.65%; and revenue from the new energy electric drive stator and rotor series products was 342 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 156.94%.

　　In September 2025, after learning that Golden Empire had the intention to cooperate with a local precision manufacturing company, Huadu acted immediately; a dedicated service support task force was established, with the Huadu District Autocity Administrative Committee taking the lead, to deliver proactive, on-site, and forward-leaning support, aiming at facilitating the conclusion of cooperation between the local precision manufacturing enterprise and Golden Empire to jointly build a higher-level automotive precision parts manufacturing base. By following up throughout the process and deep exploration of the needs, the task force successfully promoted Golden Empire to take a further step forward from the original cooperation to increase investment to build an intelligent manufacturing production line for AI computing liquid cooling plates.

　　As the result of the approach of attracting investment through existing enterprises and aggregating industries via industrial chains, Golden Empire has continued to ramp up its investment in Huadu, establishing a liquid cooling business center and setting up multiple subsidiaries for functions such as liquid cooling production line operations, investment holding, and emerging business expansion, which form a well-structured, collaborative subsidiary cluster that provides strong support for the large-scale development of the liquid cooling industry.

　　Cultivate the industrial ecosystem

　　Attract high quality enterprises to build new fertile soil of investment

　　It is no coincidence that companies choose to establish their South China strategic pivots in Huadu. As the core base of Guangzhou's northern growth pole and the carrier of a national-level economic and technological development zone, Huadu has already been home to strategic industry clusters such as intelligent connected new energy vehicles, intelligent equipment and robotics, new energy and new energy storage. Its sound industrial chain ecosystem, complete supporting facilities, rich application scenarios, and concentrated innovation elements provide a solid foundation for the development of high-end manufacturing projects.

　　The dual empowerment of industrial carrier and high-quality business environment provide a key support for project implementation. Huadu has built a market-oriented development and operation model featuring "management committee + state-owned enterprises," to continuously promote the improvement of industrial space quality and efficiency. Various means, including customized factories and near-completed buildings, are adopted to solves the challenges of "projects waiting for land," and make it possible that high-quality projects may "start production upon arrival." Working together is a full-cycle service mechanism, named "Park Steward”, which provides solutions for enterprises throughout the entire process—from factory site selection, policy coordination, and element guarantees to approval and agency processing—creating a dual guarantee system of "hard carrier + warm service.”

　　Industry empowerment and leap-forward

　　Push Huadu to new heights in intelligent manufacturing

　　Currently, Huadu's automotive industry is undergoing accelerated transformation, with annual production capacity of new energy vehicle reaching 360,000 units, accounting for 60% of complete vehicle capacity; in particular, Dongfeng Nissan have produced and sold over 100,000 of its N-series new energy vehicles, setting the fastest record for selling 100,000 new energy vehicles among central SOE joint venture brands. The 360-acre Intelligent Connected Vehicle Electronic Demonstration Park gathers international leading enterprises such as ZF, Marelli, and Valeo; and the District has successively been approved as a municipal-level "dual pilot zone" for intelligent connected vehicle testing and mixed autonomous driving, with the length of test roads ranking second in the city. With the output value of the two major industries—new energy and new energy storage, and intelligent equipment and robotics—both exceeding 10 billion yuan, the emerging drivers continues to build momentum.

　　The implementation of Golden Empire's project for AI computing liquid cooling plates will drive the gathering of upstream and downstream of the liquid cooling industry chain in Huadu, and connection with global high-end supply chains and technical resources, to push local enterprises to benchmark and upgrade, set in motion deep collaboration and two-way empowerment across the six strategic industries of Huadu, including intelligent connected new energy vehicles, new energy and new energy storage, and intelligent equipment and robotics, and promote the extension and application of liquid cooling technology into new energy vehicle thermal management, temperature control of energy storage system, and intelligent cooling of equipment; in short, inject strong momentum for Huadu to secure firm footing in the track of new AI computing cooling and create a new high ground in intelligent manufacturing.

　　Next, Huadu will ride the tide to focus precisely on bottlenecks in key fields such as new energy vehicles, embodied intelligence, and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, will continuously strengthen, supplement, and extend the industrial chains, enhance industrial carriers, polish business brands, and accelerate the creation of new advantages in industrial development, so as to contribute Huadu's strength to Guangzhou's ambition of building a trillion-yuan automotive industry cluster.
