Elite Talent Drives a Green Future: Formula Student China Press Conference Release 20120621

On June 20, the press conference for the Kunlun Lubricant Cup 2012 Formula Student China was grandly held at the Beijing Auto Museum. As a leading brand in China's lubricant industry, Kunlun Lubricant fully supports the cultivation of talent for China's automotive industry and its independent innovation and R&D work, cheering on university students who love automotive design and manufacturing as they realize their dreams of building and racing cars, and cheering on the dream of China's automotive industry becoming a strong power.

Relevant personnel from the organizing committee said that Formula Student China, as a public-interest professional platform, provides university students with valuable hands-on opportunities to build cars, and that after two editions of operation it has been found that Chinese university students have made substantial progress in both experience and practical ability. Students who have taken part in the competition for three consecutive editions said that judging by the performance of the first two years there has indeed been a qualitative leap: from the groping of the first edition to substantial reductions in car weight, stronger technology and better selection of lubricants in the second year, and while they have become more proficient in vehicles and the competition, they have also attracted the attention of many vehicle manufacturers. Many outstanding students, after being tempered by the experience, are reserved in advance by manufacturers. Judging from mature competitions abroad, this indeed conforms to the basic rules of competition and talent cultivation.

The green development of China's automotive industry cannot be separated from the fertile soil of elite talent cultivation and social practice. Xu Yuanke, Party Secretary of PetroChina Lubricant Company, said that since becoming associated with the event in 2011, Kunlun Lubricant has become more fully aware of the importance of cultivating talent for the automotive industry. The people of Kunlun take part in and support this youthful and passionate event throughout, from event preparation, judging support and oil supply to popular science sharing on campus tours; the people of Kunlun strive together with China's new generation of automotive people for the future. Through the tempering provided by the platform of Formula Student China, we believe the horizons of university students will certainly be broadened, thereby laying a solid foundation for realizing the green dream of China's automotive industry, which is also the fundamental reason why PetroChina Lubricant Company strongly supports this event.

For more than ten years, in order to achieve the common goal and dream of the green development of the automotive industry, Kunlun Lubricant, as a member of the lubricant industry, the flowing bone marrow of the automobile, has taken improving the country's lubrication standards as its mission. Relying on independent innovation, it has strengthened collaborative cooperation with partners in the automotive industry chain and actively cooperated with industry association organizations represented by the Society of Automotive Engineers of China, steadily implementing and advancing work such as the formulation of Chinese automotive lubricant standards, while continuously strengthening in-depth exchanges and cooperation with well-known universities; the dual-line drive of independent technological innovation and talent cultivation provides a huge impetus for the development of China's automotive industry.

At the same time, as outstanding elite of national brands, Kunlun Lubricant has always taken supporting China's automotive industry and providing vehicles with the best lubricating products as an important business philosophy. It also actively advocates rational lubrication, and based on the concepts of scientific and technological R&D and professional service, provides customers and the public with high-quality lubricant products and fast, thoughtful service, winning the favor and praise of the market and consumers. While achieving sustainable and healthy development of the enterprise, its strong support for Formula Student China to cheer on dreams further demonstrates that PetroChina Lubricant Company supports the development of China's automotive industry as always and spares no effort in promoting independent technology R&D.
