The textile industry is undergoing a quiet organizational transformation. While the market focuses on capacity relocation and price competition, a group of enterprises derive endogenous momentum from the deep integration of Party building and business. On the 105th anniversary of the CPC, the national 'Two Excellences and One Advanced' list was announced, featuring multiple textile individuals and collectives. The logic behind these selections deserves in-depth industry interpretation.
Individual Benchmarks: Party Vanguards from Grassroots to Top Management
Zhang Bo, Chairman of Shandong Weiqiao Pioneering Group, was awarded 'National Outstanding Communist Party Member'. As the leader of the world's largest cotton textile enterprise, his selection signals the political responsibility of industry giants in supply chain stability and green transition. Mi Xuemei from Zhongshan Xiahushijie Clothing represents another archetype—a migrant worker from a Gansu mountain village, now Party branch committee member and customer service director. She has conducted over 100 theoretical lectures and organized skill training to help workers cope with automation. This reveals the key role of Party members in 'stabilizing employment and upgrading skills' amid the textile workforce transformation.
Industrial Pioneers: How Party Building Translates into Technological Breakthroughs
The inclusion of Hengli Petrochemical (Dalian) Co., Ltd. Party Committee is directly linked to its 'Silk Road Pioneer' brand. The company built a 20 million-ton/year refining-petrochemical integration project in 19 months, the world's largest 1.5 million-ton/year ethylene project in 13 months, and the world's largest PTA base. More notably, its 'embedded wastewater treatment' technology reduces effluent COD to below 15 mg/L with full water reuse, earning it a national 'Green Factory' designation. Party members dominate innovation: 208 'golden ideas' adopted in three years, and 75% of patents led by Party members or applicants.
Jilin Carbon Valley Carbon Fiber Co., Ltd. Party Committee also made the list. With 190,000 tons of precursor capacity, it is now the world's largest carbon fiber precursor producer. Its Party building focuses on 'strengthening and expanding the carbon fiber strategic emerging industry', helping domestic carbon fiber enter the global first tier. As a critical material for aerospace and wind turbine blades, domestic carbon fiber breakthroughs directly impact national supply chain security.
Transformation Sample: Traditional Apparel Enterprise's Supply Chain Restructuring
The case of Changzhou Hualida Garment Group Party Committee shows how traditional OEMs upgrade through Party building. Its airbag production line delivers 130,000 units daily, and it has shifted from imported fabrics to full-chain self-production from weaving, coating to sewing and folding. Its compact, lightweight airbags are well-suited for the booming NEV market. Over a decade of Belt & Road involvement, Hualida operates five factories in Vietnam with 15,000 employees, accelerating global layout through domestic-overseas coordination. The group is targeting '10 billion yuan in sales', and its 'Ordinary People Party Building' emphasizes improving the well-being of 25,000 employees, aiming to solve the industry's labor retention challenges.
Industry Implications: Party Building as Organizational Infrastructure for High-Quality Development
From Suzhou Inovance Technology (industrial automation leader) to Yueda Textile Group, selected collectives share 'young, highly-educated' characteristics—at Inovance, 62% of Party members hold master's degrees, and 91% are under 40. This shows Party building is evolving from ideological education to a 'red engineer' training system, ensuring technological autonomy. Wuxi Guolian Group's '365 Smart Chain' Party brand uses digital management to connect organizational, industrial, and capital chains, providing a disciplinary framework for SOE reform and industrial funds.
