On January 21, Wang Yin, Secretary of the CPC Committee and Chairman of CASCO, visited Xi'an Jiaotong University and held talks with Lu Jianjun, Secretary of the CPC Committee of Xi'an Jiaotong University. The two sides conducted in-depth exchanges on talent cultivation, scientific research, and achievement transformation.

Lu Jianjun welcomed Wang Yin and his delegation. He said that the "Outline of the National Plan for Building a Strong Education Nation" emphasizes the need to strengthen the role of high-level research universities as the main force in national basic research and as a source of major technological breakthroughs, improve the organization of basic research, and establish an effective mechanism where technological innovation and talent cultivation mutually support each other, driving the high-quality development of disciplines. As a leading enterprise in the field of rail transit signaling, CASCO focuses on technological innovation and actively promotes the digitalization, intelligentization, and greening of rail transit. He hopes that based on the existing cooperation, the two sides will use the "1121" model as a starting point to deepen the deep integration of industry-university-research led by enterprises, connect the innovation chain, integrate the industry chain, introduce the capital chain, share the talent chain, and strengthen organized scientific research. At the same time, they will better combine the technological achievement resource advantages of Xi'an Jiaotong University with the market entity advantages of CASCO, jointly establish a basic research laboratory, promote deep-level cooperation between "first-class enterprises and first-class universities" in the rail transit industry and the low-altitude economy, and strengthen the cultivation of high-level talents to provide strong impetus for the high-quality development of the economy and society.

Wang Yin introduced the innovative development of CASCO and expressed gratitude for the support of Xi'an Jiaotong University. He said that CASCO, focusing on major national strategies and industry development needs, launched two platforms for intelligent operation and maintenance and intelligent operation control, promoted research on signaling systems based on the "integration of four networks", committing to driving the digital transformation and intelligent upgrading of the rail transit sector. At the same time, CASCO sees low-altitude flight as a new business area, and fully leverages its advantages in the field of intelligent control to actively develop low-altitude intelligent control system. He hopes that the two sides will further integrate high-quality resources, innovate cooperation mode, expand cooperation pathways around digital urban rail transit, intelligent operation and maintenance, and low-altitude flight, continuously achieve new breakthroughs in tackling key core technologies that are "bottlenecks", produce landmark achievements, and promote the high-quality development of the rail transit industry.

Responsible personnel from the Party and University Office, the Research Institute, the Future Technology Institute, and other relevant units of Xi'an Jiaotong University, as well as the head of CASCO Xi'an Company, accompanied the discussion and exchange.
