The technological application principle of drone balance
Entrepreneurship is the foundation for development and the cornerstone for enriching the people. In recent years, Tongcheng County has vigorously optimized its business environment, accelerated the return of capital and intelligence, and gathered talents. With sincere service and precise policies, it has attracted a group of skilled and talented individuals with dreams to return home and start businesses. Hubei Kaikong Beat Technology Co., Ltd., located in Guandao Town, Tongcheng County, was founded in 2022. With the active support of Guandao Town, the company is steadily advancing its development, injecting vigorous momentum into rural revitalization.
For several days, the production workshop of Hubei Kaikong Beat Technology Co., Ltd. has been bustling with activity. Workers are skillfully operating equipment, conducting final assembly and debugging of industrial drones. This high-tech enterprise, rooted in Guandao Town, was founded by Ding Weibing, a capable individual who returned home.

Our KK90 drone platform can be equipped with different devices for applications such as power inspection, agricultural and forestry plant protection, surveying and mapping, and reconnaissance. Currently, our orders are steadily increasing, and we hope to contribute to the development of the low-altitude economy in our hometown.
In the 1990s, Ding Weibing headed south to Guangdong, starting from an ordinary worker. Through diligent study, he gradually grew into a technical backbone in the field of model airplanes and drones. Over two decades of hard work in a foreign land have accumulated rich industry experience and resources, which has also made him increasingly eager to return home and start a business to contribute to his hometown.

On the one hand, I have a deep affection for my hometown and want to come back; on the other hand, seeing that the business environment in Tongcheng is getting better and better, and the Party Committee and Government of Guandao Town are very supportive of industry and innovation, I feel that there is great potential for development if I come back.
In order to contribute to the development of his hometown, Ding Weibing chose Chunlei Village as the location for his factory, urgently needing a piece of production land to build the factory. Chunlei Village is adjacent to National Highway 353 and is only 8 kilometers away from Tongcheng County. While the convenient transportation brings advantages, it also leads to a large number of young and middle-aged laborers going out to work, resulting in increasingly prominent issues of idle land and a "hollowing out" of the village. With the full support of the Party Committee and Government of Guandao Town, Chunlei Village has obtained county-level project funds and policy support. According to unified planning, design, and standards, a new rural revitalization micro-factory has been built, and Kaikong Technology Company has successfully settled in. During the subsequent business development and expansion, the Guandao Town Government actively followed up and helped the company build a new factory building, supporting the healthy development of the enterprise. With the full-process tracking service and "one-on-one" assistance from Guandao Town and relevant functional departments, the company's difficulties in terms of site and financing were effectively resolved, enabling it to quickly get back on track.

The Guandao government not only helped us solve the initial problems with our factory building, but also actively communicated and coordinated with the county to assist us in applying for subsidies for low-altitude economic projects. In response to the company's difficulties with electricity usage, they promptly contacted relevant units to purchase and install transformers, solving our practical problems. At the same time, they provided a lot of guidance on talent introduction and skills training, allowing our company to develop with greater peace of mind.
In the company's production and operation, facing the practical difficulties of weak supply chain support and shortage of professional technicians in rural areas, Ding Weibing did not back down. On the one hand, he led the team to develop alternative materials to break through the supply chain bottleneck; on the other hand, he innovated the "training through work" model, turning the production workshop into a training classroom, personally training inexperienced local villagers into skilled workers, and injecting more strength into the company's development.
Today, Ding Weibing's company has evolved into a star enterprise for returning entrepreneurs in Tongcheng County. It boasts over 10 utility model patents, has delivered more than 1,000 drones and model airplanes, and achieved an annual output value exceeding 8 million yuan. What's even more commendable is that the enterprise has successfully provided employment for nearly 33 local residents, enabling villagers to achieve stable income growth "right at their doorstep".

After sending my son to school every day, I come here to work. I can earn over 4,000 yuan a month, which not only takes care of my family but also provides me with an income, making me feel at ease.
Looking ahead, Ding Weibing has clear goals. He plans to further expand the production scale, expand the application of drones in logistics transfer and other fields, and is committed to building a low-altitude economic ecosystem integrating research and development, manufacturing, application, and training in Tongcheng.
Ding Weibing, General Manager of Hubei Kaikong Beat Technology Co., Ltd
My original intention is to work together with my fellow villagers to accomplish something practical. Especially now, we are living in a good era. The county party secretary, the town party secretary, and relevant leaders attach great importance to us, leading us to visit excellent enterprises in other places, helping us solve financing difficulties, paving the way for the development of enterprises, and enhancing our confidence. Next, we want to strive to build Tongcheng into a drone production and application demonstration base in the border area of Hubei, Hunan, and Jiangxi, driving more employment opportunities for our fellow villagers and contributing more to the development of our hometown.
