From the installation to putting into use, the company never had the slightest slack. The safety inspection team of the company also visited the project site several times to carry out thorough investigation.

On June 25, 2016, the world-renowned manned space project - China's newly developed Long March No. 7 launch vehicle was launched for the first time at the Wenchang Space Launch Center in Hainan, and successfully delivered the payload to a predetermined orbit. The mission was a complete success. GiantKONE also successfully guaranteed the launch mission.
