2025 New Year's Message

# Review 2024

The past year has been a year for the company to "rebuild its foundation". 

We continue to deepen our presence in the metallurgy, packaging and power industries, and have intensified our efforts in industry expansion. Our partners from ZhiLian have been seen actively showcasing their expertise at multiple domestic and international exhibition stands. The company has newly won billion-dollar benchmark projects such as Zhongyou Baishunun, Daliupu, and Jiangtong, and has further consolidated its competitive edge in specific fields through the development of new equipment and exploration of new applications. The company's participation in the formulation of the "Digital Workshop Design Specifications for Transformers" standard has been released, and "Supply Chain Collaborative Solution Based on the Flexible Manufacturing Platform of Industrial Internet" has been selected as an "Industrial Internet Pilot Demonstration Project" by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, highlighting the company's long-term deep involvement in related fields and its competitive advantages. 

Although the overall decline in investment in the new energy industry has put a halt to our business expansion in related industries, we still achieved rapid delivery in projects such as Jinko and Longi, and received high recognition from customers. This also enabled us to accumulate valuable experience. During this process, we encountered numerous difficult challenges, and some personnel lost confidence for a while. But at this critical moment, one after another, the Zhilian people stepped forward. When I saw them finally put into practice the concept of "delivering value" through their actions and ultimately pass the test, the sense of pride and emotion I felt was far beyond words to fully express.

In the past year, the company's overall delivery volume reached a new historical high. Through strengthening the target management mechanism, implementing milestone assessment and incentives, the collaborative awareness and work enthusiasm of each department have been significantly enhanced. Our delivery team "turned impossibilities into possibilities", with the spirit of "achieving the mission without fail", and delivered a nearly perfect result. 
2024 will also be the year when our platformization strategy enters the substantive stage. Through organizational restructuring, vigorous recruitment of talents, holding industry-research seasons, and other measures, we have gradually explored and verified the system reconfiguration towards a platform-based model. Significant breakthroughs have been achieved in the development of the basic platform, which has accumulated energy for the company's next stage of advancement. 

On the occasion of the company's eight-year anniversary, through collective creation, we have established the core values of "creating value, being sincere, fulfilling the mission, and achieving mutual success". I remember during the solicitation activity, everyone actively participated, shared the same interests, and remained enthusiastic as before. It was this common understanding and belief that gathered a strong cohesion, making AIMS become a place that can attract more like-minded people.

• The development of basic software platforms should focus on universality. While the overall architecture is progressiveness, the specific characteristics of specific products should be rooted in specific scenarios and focus on solving high-value pain points.

• The research and development of hardware equipment should emphasize industry attributes, deepen understanding of industry processes and procedures, and focus on mutual empowerment with software platforms to create end-to-end full process solutions for the industry.

• To build an open R&D system, while possessing core technological capabilities, actively collaborate with partners to ensure problem-solving; Can be thrown out, can be retrieved; Make joint research and development the norm of the company's technology system, and achieve effective aggregation of resources and technology.

We often say that entrepreneurship is a way of life. For us, work is not just about a better material life, but also a stage for self-worth and growth. Because of this, let us always maintain curiosity towards the unknown, embrace difficulties, embrace uncertainty, and embrace twists and turns in this process. Because the meaning is not only in the final outcome, but also in our journey of wholehearted dedication and cooperation with each other.
