Abstract:
According to CCTV Financial News, Dong Mingzhu, Chairman of Gree Electric Appliances, recently had face-to-face conversations with students from Gree Technical School and talked about skills development, employment prospects, school operations and other topics. At the "Dialogue" program, Dong Mingzhu said that students who want to stay in Gree after three years can basically stay in Gree.

She encouraged students to learn real skills and cultivate the spirit of craftsmanship during school, and revealed that Gree has gradually eliminated the consideration of diplomas, and ability is the hard pass.

When it comes to student training, Dong Mingzhu also expressed confidently that he wants students from technical schools to "compete" with ordinary high school students.
In addition, regarding the question of whether running the school is profitable, Dong Mingzhu responded,
There is no room for profit in this technical school. Gree will invest an additional 100 million yuan every year as operating subsidies to ensure that training equipment, teacher allocation, etc. maintain high quality levels.
It is understood that Zhuhai Gree Technical School is wholly owned by Gree Electric Appliances, and Dong Mingzhu personally serves as the principal.
The school will enroll students for the first time in the fall of 2026. It originally planned to enroll 300 people, but received more than 8,000 applications during the registration stage.
On October 4, the school welcomed its first freshmen, with the final enrollment exceeding 600 students
.According to the first enrollment brochure, the school recruits junior high school graduates aged 15 to 18 from all over the country. Tuition fees range from 9,000 yuan to 15,000 yuan per academic year.
In terms of professional setting, the school has opened nine majors in the first batch, including refrigeration equipment application and maintenance, mold manufacturing, intelligent equipment operation and maintenance, mechatronics technology, electrical automation equipment installation and maintenance, electromechanical product testing technology application, Internet of Things application technology, multimedia production, and computer application and maintenance, covering intelligent manufacturing, electrical technology, information technology and other fields.
In terms of teachers, the school has established a teaching team composed of senior Gree Electric engineers, senior technicians and professional teachers from the school to implement an integrated training model of engineering and learning, combining professional learning with practical operations.
