XUZHOU, China, Oct. 29, 2024 — The ninth season of XCMG Apprentice and the XCMG Global Excellent Employees Training Camp have concluded successfully. This event brought together 23 outstanding employees from XCMG’s 9 global regions and 17 countries, who traveled to Xuzhou, the capital of Chinese construction machinery, to explore “A Million Ways of Working at XCMG”.
Since its launch in 2016, the “XCMG Apprentice” program has grown into a major international brand event, generating over 300 million impressions, reaching over 90 countries, and attracting over 300,000 fans worldwide.
This year, the event underwent a significant upgrade, focusing on the career development of employees from all over the world and forging connections between China and the world. During the opening ceremony, employees embarked on their journey as teams from different business regions. In 2013, XCMG established its Global Business Headquarters and 14 global business regions, marking a significant step in its global expansion.
Throughout the event, XCMG employees delved into cultural experiences and industry insights, paving the way for further internationalization. Coinciding with the 11th XCMG Sports Meeting, 2 XCMG apprentices showcased a captivating lion dance performance, captivating thousands. Apprentices visited the XCMG renewable energy loader cluster, experiencing the “China’s No. 1 Wheel Loader” XC9350 and participated in a roller team time trial. They actively interacted with impressive cranes, excavators, and the world’s largest rear-drive rigid mining truck, the XDE440. Apprentices also rode in a fire truck, enjoying the heights and excellence of XCMG MEWP products.
This season of XCMG Apprentice featured highlights such as the cooperation between excavators and skid steer loaders, performing the “red wine stunt” that left the apprentices amazed. Loaders presented welcome gifts, filling the venue with cheers, while the excavator “dunk showcase” prompted the apprentices to capture the moment.
XCMGers embraced the core values of “Responsibility, Virtue, and Fortitude”, embodying the corporate spirit of “Questioning, Revolutionary, Innovative, and Persevering”. This season not only fueled career development but also showcased the unity of the global XCMG family. At the final ceremony, the chorus of “One XCMG” singing “We Are Family” ignited the atmosphere as apprentices shared insights on XCMG’s Intelligent, Digital, and Connected Transformation.
Global XCMG employees remain united, continuously innovating and creating new possibilities for a better future.
