Then, in the National and Local Joint Engineering Laboratory of Exploration and Mining Equipment and Safety Technology for Marine Mineral Resources, Xu listened to the work report by Professor Wan Buyan, the leader of “Hainiu” project, and watched the video about “Hainiu”. Then he learned that the overall technology of "Hainiu" has reached the international advanced level, among which coring technology, average coring rate, operational efficiency and others are at the international leading level, with great excitement and encouragement. It is expected that HNUST will continue to strengthen the R&D of new technologies, take full advantage of "Hainiu" and make greater contributions to the exploration and mining of seabed resources in China.
 
After that, in Vehicle Training Center, Xu paid a visit to Weixin Racing Team’s independent designed-and-manufactured formula car of HNUST, made an inquiry of the operation process and troubles they encountered, gave recognition for students’ achievement, and encouraged students to study hard, reinforce professional foundation, and gain greater process.

HNUST should carry out scientific and technological innovation in the course of economic and social development, the major needs of the country and the forefront of international science and technology. Furthermore, it should, with innovation as driving force of high-quality development, train a large number of high-level technical professionals for Hunan.
 
Finally, Governor Xu Dazhe pointed out that HNUST, as a university jointly built by People’s Government of Hunan Province and the State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defence, PRC, should consistently make best of its disciplinary advantages, promote the integration of military and civil affairs in depth, focus on solving the problems posed by China being constrained by other countries in technology, improve the ability of R&D and innovation, so as to further develop its own characteristics.
