Shenzhen, October 8, 2025 — In the morning light over Luohu Bridge, history seemed to shine once again. Seventy years ago today, Qian Xuesen, the renowned scientist known as the “Father of China’s Aerospace,” returned to his motherland via this very bridge after overcoming immense obstacles. Seventy years later, his son Qian Yonggang, Director of the Qian Xuesen Education Work Committee, together with representatives from China’s education and scientific communities, retraced that historic route in a commemorative event titled “Retracing the Road Home.”

During the event, StarRides, the premium chauffeur service brand under Geely Holding Group, was commissioned by the Beijing Lingjing Wisdom Public Welfare Foundation to provide comprehensive mobility and concierge support. With meticulous planning and state-level execution standards, StarRides successfully completed the transportation and service tasks for this event — delivering a state guest-level experience as a tribute to the great patriotism and scientific legacy of Qian Xuesen.

Comprehensive Mobility Safeguard for a Historic Moment

As the official mobility support provider for this commemorative event, StarRides delivered full-process transportation and concierge services — coordinating its fleet management, city operations, and chauffeur concierge teams to ensure seamless execution.

Before the event, StarRides established a dedicated operations team and leveraged its proprietary intelligent dispatch system to meticulously plan routes, time schedules, and vehicle allocation. Every aspect of the event’s mobility operation was tested and optimized to ensure flawless coordination.

The vehicles used for the event included the luxury all-electric MPV Zeekr 009, offering a quiet and comfortable cabin environment with comprehensive in-car amenities. Each guest enjoyed a safe, efficient, and refined travel experience. Throughout the event, StarRides’ professionally trained concierges provided attentive, precise, and responsive service, ensuring that every journey reflected the brand’s commitment to excellence in high-end chauffeur operations.

Honoring Scientific Spirit Through Excellence in Service

For StarRides, this event represented far more than a transportation task — it was a tribute to the spirit of science and patriotism embodied by Qian Xuesen. The StarRides team approached every detail with deep reverence and a strong sense of mission, integrating the brand’s service philosophy with the scientist’s lifelong dedication to national progress.

Qian Yonggang, now 77, reflected during the event:

“My father’s return to the motherland may have seemed ordinary, but it laid the foundation for China’s ‘Two Bombs, One Satellite’ program.”

His understated words captured the profound essence of devotion and sacrifice. Similarly, StarRides treats every “ordinary” pick-up and drop-off as an act of dedication — transforming professionalism and precision into a modern reflection of craftsmanship and social responsibility.

A Trusted Partner for National and Global Events

As a leader in China’s bespoke chauffeur service industry, StarRides has repeatedly served at major international and national events, including the 2025 Chengdu World Games, the 9th Asian Winter Games in Harbin, the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou, and the China International Import Expo.

In these high-standard, high-pressure environments, StarRides has accumulated extensive operational expertise and earned a strong reputation for reliability and excellence. Its role in the 70th Anniversary of Qian Xuesen’s Return to China once again demonstrated its exceptional professionalism and executional strength in managing complex ceremonial mobility projects.

From Tribute to Promise: Carrying the Spirit Forward

A solemn commemoration, a heartfelt journey — StarRides completed the “Retracing the Road Home” program with state guest-level service standards, turning every moment of travel into a gesture of respect for history.

As Qian Xuesen once said, “The essence of the scientific spirit lies in innovation.”

Guided by this same belief, StarRides will continue to combine human warmth with technological precision, advancing its mission to represent the values, craftsmanship, and social responsibility of a new generation of Chinese enterprises.
