Stepping into the cleanroom of Anhui Guangzhuo Communication Equipment Co., Ltd. in the Suma Park, thousands of employees are focused on operating in front of microscopes. Optical fibers, only 0.125 millimeters thick, are being bundled together to make tiny optical connectors the size of rice grains. These carriers of these "lights of intelligence" are among the hottest components currently experiencing the explosive growth of AI computing power.
Since settling in Suzhou at the end of 2023, this company has been "soaring" at an astonishing speed: an output value of 160 million yuan in 2024, surging to 360 million yuan in 2025, full orders for 2026, and orders for 2027 already "secured." The company firmly ranks among the top three in the domestic industry, with transmission speeds twice that of similar products.
However, the explosive growth in orders has brought 'sweet troubles': production capacity is stretched to the limit, there is a huge labor gap, and accommodation guarantees are tight. While companies are anxious about how to "digest" this surging wave of orders, a "breakthrough escort battle" led comprehensively by the Suma Park Management Committee and coordinated at multiple levels has already begun.
Labor Defense Battle: A Multi-Dimensional and Coordinated Recruitment Mobilization
"After the Spring Festival, our staff will expand from 1,300 to over 3,000, leaving a shortfall of over 1,000 people." Faced with overwhelming market orders, Guangzhuo's production manager Zhou Shancheng was once troubled by "where the people come from." The worries of enterprises are the call call for park action.
A multi-dimensional, comprehensive recruitment campaign quickly unfolded. The park has implemented a "combination punch": online, coordinating with municipal media such as Dawn News, FM100.8, and FM107.3 to frequently broadcast recruitment information, coordinating with the municipal cyberspace administration, inviting local internet influencers, and achieving precise information reach through short videos and live streaming (such as the "Cloud Job Delivery: Smart Link Guangzhuo Special Sessions"). Offline, the park deployed "No. 1" smart job search machines in busy areas such as administrative service centers and human resources markets, pinning Guangzhuo job listings to the top; Seizing the wave of people returning home during the Spring Festival, enterprises were organized to go deep into surrounding towns such as Dadian and Shicun to participate in 13 special job fairs, delivering job openings right to their doorstep.
More importantly, the park has maximized the "government-university-enterprise collaboration" mechanism. Led by the park, the Municipal Education and Sports Bureau organized leaders from 14 secondary vocational schools across the city to visit Guangzhuo, tour workshops, hold discussions, and connect with them, establishing a direct channel for internships and employment. At the same time, Guangzhuo is being promoted to participate in campus job fairs at universities such as Suzhou University and Anhui University of Technology, expanding sources of professional technical talent. This "campaign" even escalated into a citywide action: leaders from the Standing Committee of the Municipal People's Congress and the Municipal Political Consultative Conference visited enterprises for research, mobilizing NPC deputies, CPPCC members, and the labor union system to support recruitment; relevant government officials even led teams to hold special recruitment promotion meetings, clarifying goals and deploying plans; the Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau and the Municipal Talent Work Bureau visited to provide guidance on employment and high-end talent introduction.
Since the beginning of this year, the park has helped Guangzhuo Communications recruit more than 1,800 employees through various channels, effectively alleviating the company's temporary labor pressure.
The Battle of Peaceful Living: From "Unable to Settle" to "Calming the Mind"
"Attract them" but also "retain them." With the surge in staff, the campus's dormitory facilities quickly became saturated, and the shortage of 750 housing units became the biggest bottleneck for job retention. The park management committee quickly made solving the accommodation issue a "top priority."
A "housing project" racing against time has been fully launched. The park has set up a special assistance team to conduct a thorough survey and scientific allocation of existing housing in the area. Currently, the two employee dormitory buildings in Xinghui Mansion are being renovated at a rapid pace. The first building has been fully delivered, and the other building is fully delivered by the end of June. At the same time, renovation projects for multiple supporting dormitories such as Hesheng Plaza, the Teaching and Examination Center, and the Greenland Industrial Park are progressing simultaneously, forming a tiered supply system and making every effort to expand capacity. The park not only pursues "living comfortably" but is also committed to "living well," simultaneously improving property management, dining and supermarkets, leisure and entertainment, and commuter shuttle services, enhancing employees' sense of belonging and happiness, so they can truly "live and work in peace and contentment."
Service Upgrade Battle: From "One-on-One" Guarantee to "Handling Before Complaints"
Employment and accommodation are urgent needs, but the park's services go far beyond that. Since Guangzhuo was established, the park has established a "one-on-one" guarantee mechanism, with specialists following up throughout the entire lifecycle of enterprises, from establishment, construction, production, to expansion.
When enterprises encounter power bottlenecks due to capacity expansion, the warranty specialist immediately coordinates with Huaihai Asset and Power Supply departments to scientifically formulate plans, shorten approval deadlines, and supervise on-site throughout the process, completing transformer capacity expansion at the fastest speed to "charge" production capacity. During the establishment and operation of enterprises, the park provides full-process approval agency services, efficiently completing business registration, filing, environmental assessment, and other procedures, practicing "fast processing of accommodation matters." Policy specialists proactively visit to review policies benefiting enterprises, technological transformation, and talent, guiding companies in filing and fulfilling their claims. During critical periods of enterprise development, when companies develop new investment concerns due to policy comparisons, the park promptly forms special reports, actively communicates upward, and formulates support plans under compliance premise, striving to retain incremental investment from quality enterprises.
Reporter's Notes
From "Escort" to "Symbiosis": Suma's Practice in Optimizing the Business Environment
Guangzhuo's explosive growth vividly embodies the Suma Park's philosophy of "project first, service foremost." From solving the problem of "one factory" to optimizing the ecosystem of the entire park, Suma Park demonstrates the spirit of "being one of our own, handling our own affairs" with the "shop assistant" spirit. This kind of service is not a passive response, but an active frontline, systematic planning, and full support.
The government's "combination punch" precisely solves the "growth headaches" of enterprises, and the vigorous development of enterprises is fed back to local economies through tangible output value and tax revenue (over 46 million yuan in taxes paid in 2025), as well as strong industrial agglomeration potential. Currently, Guangzhuo has invested in and constructed Phase II and Phase III projects in the park. This kind of positive interaction is the best interpretation of "close and clean government-enterprise relations," and it also provides a solid footnote for "retaining one chain owner and attracting a cluster."
After the surge in orders, there was a comprehensive test of speed, temperature, and accuracy. The services in the Suma Park resonate with the development of enterprises, turning "sweet worries" into powerful momentum for high-quality development, transmitting the "light of intelligence" for industrial revitalization across northern Anhui.
