We have been striving to continuously and deeply carry out the study of “Four Histories （i.e. History of the Party, History of New China, History of Reform and Opening-up, History of Socialist Development)”, deepen the Party members’ understanding of their original intention and mission, and further enhance the role of the Party organization as a fighting fortress, On September 25, the Party branch of Thales SEC Transport General Management and the Eastern District Party branch joined hands with the Party branch of Shanghai Electric Group and the Party branch of Shanghai Electric Engineering Co., Ltd, to go to Shanghai Subway Museum to carry out the Party Day activity with the theme of “Party building for win-win cooperation” and learning of the Third Volume of Xi Jinping: The Governance of China. Shen Hong, Secretary of the Party Committee and CEO of Thales SEC Transport, Dong Liang, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Executive Director of the Company, and Party members and activists from all branches participated in the event.

During the event, all members feel greatly moved by the precious yellowish historical materials of subways, exhibits with touching stories, and a shocking 180 degree circular-screen film which show the detailed development of Shanghai Metro

In late 1950s, In the late 1950s, rail transit pioneers dreamed of Shanghai’s metro in a reed shed on the banks of the Huangpu River. After decades of development, Shanghai has formed a huge public transport network with 16 subway lines, 800 kilometers and nearly 400 subway stations, with the total length of subway topping the world.

In a section of subway tunnel built with equal scale reduction, the scenario of shield tunneling is restored, fully showing the hardship of Shanghai Metro people in building the iron Great Wall under the fragile geological conditions like tofu. Party members actively expressed their willing to follow our pioneers to work hard and tackle challenges under difficult conditions and contribute to the great development of Shanghai metro business.

After the visit, participants attended the seminar in the conference room of Shanghai Metro Museum, and ran through the learning and theme exchange of the Third Volume of Xi Jinping: The Governance of China. Dong Liang, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of the Company, made an exchange speech. She said, the Party building activity is the first event after Thales SEC Transport(TST) signed a joint agreement with the four-party branch of Shanghai Electric Group this June. This event is rich in content, diverse in form and drive for results. Through this event, they not only learned professional knowledge of subway, but also promoted the internal communication within the Group and enhanced the cohesion of enterprises. It is expected that the four-party branch will forge ahead, work hard, continuously explore new forms of Party building, make high-quality co-construction achievements, and embrace the 100th anniversary of the founding of the party with outstanding achievements!
