Recently, the 2025 <\/span>Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year<\/span><\/i> awards ceremony concluded successfully in Hong Kong. Mr. Wang Yanqing, Founder and Chairman of Lead Intelligent Equipment<\/span> (hereafter referred to as LEAD)<\/span>, was recognized as the only leader from the new energy manufacturing sector this year, honoring over two decades of entrepreneurial spirit and pioneering achievements in the field of intelligent new energy equipment. At the awards ceremony, Chairman Wang sat down with Yicai for an exclusive interview, detailing LEAD\u2019s founding vision and its development roadmap for the next decade.<\/span><\/p>\n Exclusive Interview Highlights<\/span><\/p>\n “If we are to do it, we must aim to be the first.”<\/span><\/i> Chairman Wang\u2019s explanation of the company\u2019s name reveals the core of LEAD\u2019s development. From its roots in lithium<\/span>–<\/span>i<\/span>o<\/span>n<\/span> battery equipment to becoming a globally leading provider of intelligent manufacturing solutions for the new energy sector, LEAD\u2019s evolution mirrors China\u2019s journey in high-end manufacturing\u2014from follower, to peer competitor, to frontrunner.<\/span><\/p>\n The name <\/span>Lead<\/span><\/i> is both a label and a promise. Wang emphasizes that it embodies the firm commitment to lead the industry through technological innovation, anchored by a steadfast pursuit of technical excellence. In an era of explosive growth in the new energy sector, this principle has become LEAD\u2019s guiding star through cyclical market shifts.<\/span><\/p>\n Over the past decade, China\u2019s lithium<\/span>–<\/span>i<\/span>o<\/span>n<\/span> battery equipment industry has undergone a transformative metamorphosis. According to Wang, the sector has reshaped itself along two critical dimensions: reversing market positions and elevating manufacturing capabilities. Within this transformation, LEAD\u2019s most strategically significant leap has been the pioneering implementation of the full-line lithium<\/span>–<\/span>i<\/span>o<\/span>n<\/span> battery delivery model.<\/span><\/p>\n “It was extremely challenging at the time, but opportunities were hidden within.”<\/span><\/i> Wang Yanqing keenly recognized the approaching TWh era, in which leading battery manufacturers demand both rapid capacity expansion and strict production line consistency. <\/span>“Only by breaking down equipment silos can we truly address our customers\u2019 pain points,”<\/span><\/i> he noted. This insight enabled LEAD to build a defensible moat that is difficult to replicate. Today, LEAD stands as the world\u2019s only lithium<\/span>–<\/span>i<\/span>o<\/span>n<\/span> battery full-line equipment provider with 100% fully independent intellectual property rights.<\/span><\/p>\n In the face of industry homogenization, Wang has consistently chosen to pursue breakthroughs rather than compete sideways. <\/span>“Technology battles are the decisive battles, and LEAD invests in the future.”<\/span><\/i> He emphasizes that LEAD does not engage in price wars; instead, it directs R&D resources toward market needs over the next five years, choosing <\/span>“the harder but more valuable path”<\/span><\/i> to avoid low-level competition.<\/span><\/p>\n Today, LEAD demonstrates the qualities of a true industrial \u201cchain leader,\u201d a responsibility Wang takes seriously. In his view, a leading enterprise must not only operate compliantly, but also act as a <\/span>\u201cpioneer in technological breakthroughs,\u201d<\/span><\/i> a <\/span>\u201cglue\u201d for the industrial chain,<\/span><\/i> and a <\/span>\u201ccradle\u201d for nurturing talent.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Looking ahead to the next decade, Wang\u2019s vision extends far beyond equipment. He aspires to transform LEAD into a world-class leader in intelligent manufacturing, and ultimately a core architect of the future of smart energy. As he puts it, <\/span>“If new energy is the engine that changes the world, LEAD aims to be the \u2018super factory\u2019 that manufactures this engine.”<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Recently, the 2025 Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year awards ceremony concluded successfully in Hong Kong.
