It is reported that the significant leap of Changsha's scientific research strength on the global stage demonstrates the vibrant innovation vitality and profound potential of this youthful city. With the construction of a global R&D center city as the driving force, it is striding towards a scientific and technological innovation highland.

In January 2024, the overseas science and technology talent special final of the "Zhihui Xiaoxiang·Jinbo Award" Global High-Level Talent Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition was held in Changsha. The "high-performance and low-cost flow battery long-duration energy storage system" brought by Dr. Xie Wei, the chief scientist of Shenzhen ZH Energy Storage Technology Co., Ltd. and a chemical engineering Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin, was selected into the "Most Investment Value Project List".

At that time, he told reporters that the company would invest 30 million yuan to build a large-scale production line in Changsha, which is expected to be completed in the first half of 2024 and start delivering orders in the second half.

Recently, when reporters saw Xie Wei again, these goals have all been realized in Changsha. The project has landed in Wangcheng Economic Development Zone to build a production base, the first flow battery production line has been built, and large-scale flow battery charging treasure orders have been delivered. At present, they are rushing to complete orders for European customers.

This native of Shaoyang, who studied for his bachelor's and master's degrees at Tsinghua University and engaged in R&D work in several well-known American companies after obtaining his Ph.D., now has multiple new identities: legal representative, general manager and chief scientist of Hunan Changchu Technology Co., Ltd., and a high-level talent in Changsha. Gathering talents from all over the world and creating an open innovation ecosystem with global competitiveness, Changsha has won the "vote of trust" cast by talents with their feet.

With the accelerated pace of "Xiang merchants returning", "alumni returning to Xiang" and "Xiang wisdom revitalizing Xiang", and the strong support and encouragement for college students to innovate and start businesses in Hunan, another wave of high-quality talents with "overwhelming traffic" is bound to come. Aim for the long term and persist in making efforts.

As an outstanding representative of overseas returnees starting businesses in Hunan, ZH Energy Storage will continue to take root in the fertile land of innovation and entrepreneurship in Changsha. With a stronger sense of responsibility and mission, it will be an explorer and surpasser of innovative development, and contribute to Changsha's full efforts to build a global R&D center city with its own high-quality development!
