Changhone
Founded in 1958, Changhong's predecessor, the state-owned Changhong Machinery Factory, was one of the 156 key projects during China's First Five-Year Plan period and the only domestic production base for airborne fire control radar at that time. From its military industry origins and the rise of color TV manufacturing, to diversified expansion into information electronics, Changhong has extended its industries to black appliances, white appliances, IT/communications, services, components, military, and other categories. It has become a comprehensive multinational enterprise group integrating military industry, consumer electronics, and core component research and development and manufacturing, and is moving towards becoming a globally competitive provider of information appliance content and services.
