Zhongguancun Kegold was established in 2014 and is a leading company in large model technology and applications. It is a unicorn in the field of vertical AI models and the only enterprise to be listed on the "2024 Hurun China's Top 50 AI Enterprises" and the "Fortune" China's Top 50 Tech Companies based on its advantages in vertical models. The company takes the "platform + application + service" three-level engine strategy as its core, focusing on high-value industries and scenarios such as finance, government affairs, industry, automotive, and enterprise globalization. It has created vertical model solutions covering multiple industries and has served over 2,000 leading enterprises across various sectors, including 50% of China's top 100 banks, well-known central and state-owned enterprises, automakers, manufacturing companies, etc. It has jointly launched the country's first large model for the shipbuilding industry, "Baige," with China State Shipbuilding Corporation and created the country's first transportation infrastructure vertical model, "Lingzhu Intelligent Engineering," among other industry benchmarks. Its scale and reputation are both leading in the industry.

In the field of artificial intelligence, Zhongguancun KEGIN possesses full-stack AI self-development capabilities and a rich portfolio of AI products. Through independently developed AI technologies such as vertical large models, big data analysis, and multimodal interaction, it has created a leading large model platform in the industry, covering the full-linkage development and application capabilities of large models including computing power, data, models, and intelligent agents. The platform has accumulated rich scenario-based capabilities based on customer practices, including more than 200 AI capability components and over 100 out-of-the-box industry intelligent agents, providing enterprises with one-stop AI services and intelligent agent construction capabilities, enabling efficient development, rapid application, and large-scale implementation.

Ningxia Jiaojian Transportation Technology Research Institute Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as 'the Research Institute') is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ningxia Communications Construction Co., Ltd. It is an innovative technology company integrating scientific and technological research and development, testing and consulting, industrial incubation, investment cultivation, etc.

The research institute is committed to integrating the company's scientific and technological innovation resources, establishing a functional management structure of 'five centers and one platform'. It owns one Class A design institute, one national-level postdoctoral research workstation, three provincial-level technology research centers, and seven subsidiaries (including two national high-tech enterprises), forming a complete system for scientific and technological innovation and industrial development. Its business covers multiple fields such as scientific research and development, testing and consulting, highway design, innovation achievement incubation, and 'transportation+' industrial investment.

The research institute boasts strong R&D capabilities, having established a scientific research and experimental base covering more than 150 acres and opened up more than 50 acres of outdoor test sites. It has gathered over 110 employees, including more than 40 full-time R&D personnel (all with a master's degree or above, and 7 doctoral students). It has formed an "7+1" dedicated R&D + operational support team focusing on cutting-edge research with distinctive features, promoting the implementation and transformation of a series of high-level research achievements and deepening the close integration of industry-university-research-application.

The "Lingzhuo Zhi Gong" large model was jointly developed by Ningxia Jiaojian Transportation Technology Research Institute Co., Ltd. and Beijing Zhongguancun Kejin Technology Co., Ltd. It is trained based on tens of thousands of high-quality industry data such as industry specifications, and its industry inference accuracy is more than 40% higher than that of general large models. The "Lingzhuo Zhi Gong" large model application platform built upon this model has various industry knowledge bases and industry software and hardware interfaces, enabling the rapid construction of industry intelligent agents. It realizes the full-chain empowerment of "AI reading files, understanding specifications, using software, and controlling equipment," significantly improving project management efficiency and decision-making accuracy. Currently, five intelligent agents have been developed based on this model, including industry data analysis, industry knowledge Q&A, engineering technical document writing, intelligent generation of accounting reports, and intelligent bidding, achieving an average scene efficiency improvement of more than 60%.

Ningxia Jiaojian, taking construction enterprises as a sample, conducted research on the application of large models in the field of transportation infrastructure and identified 38 efficiency improvement scenarios. The results show that the average AI replacement rate exceeds 20%, with some positions even reaching over 30%. On this basis, the company has set a three-year research and development goal to achieve a comprehensive efficiency improvement of 20%. Guided by business needs, the company has focused on developing multiple representative intelligent agents such as industry data retrieval, technical document writing, and data analysis. It has trained exclusive large models for the transportation infrastructure field and constructed a domain-specific large model application platform by integrating capabilities such as drawing recognition and industry knowledge bases.

The R&D process was officially launched in March 2024. Ningxia Communications Construction Company established a frontier exploration and transportation digitization team, bringing together composite talents from well-known domestic universities such as Huazhong University of Science and Technology and Harbin Institute of Technology, to build a core competitiveness of "understanding the industry and technology". Subsequently, after internal research and visits to major national model enterprises, a partner with technical strength and determination to implement the industry was selected - Zhongguancun KEGIN. Based on the Dehuo Large Model Platform, the "Lingzhuo Zhi Gong" large model was trained. In February 2025, the first business intelligent agent was put into application in the scenario of technical scheme compilation, increasing the efficiency of highway engineering organization design compilation by 60%. In March 2025, the "Lingzhuo Zhi Gong" large model completed phase training and submitted it for filing with the Cyberspace Administration of China. In June 2025, ten thousand pieces of data were cleaned and trained, and the base was extensively replaced with the DeepSeek-r1 inference model, further enhancing the inference ability.
