Satellite “Glimpses” Jilin: Illuminating the Future of Industry with the Light of Innovation—Yang Fei, General Manager of Changguang Chenspu, Accepts an Exclusive Interview with Jilin TV, Decoding Jilin’s New Quality Productivity Empowered by Technology!
In 2025, “technological innovation” has once again become a buzzword. In March, during Jilin TV’s special coverage of the Two Sessions titled “Seeing Jilin Through Satellites,” Ms. Yang Fei, General Manager of Changguang Chenspu, was invited to appear on air. From the perspective of satellite remote sensing technology, she explained how the company leverages “multispectral filters”—its “optical core”—to help satellites “see clearly” across Jilin’s land, thereby empowering the transformation and upgrading of agriculture, ecology, and industry. After the program aired, it sparked widespread discussion online, with netizens exclaiming: “So it turns out Jilin’s cutting-edge technology is hidden right in ‘light’!”

- In the program, Jilin TV used satellite remote-sensing imagery to vividly showcase scenes such as spring plowing and preparation on the black earth, ecological restoration of Chagan Lake, and the construction of a new-energy industrial park, revealing these processes to viewers.
- Technical Highlight: Multispectral filters are core components of satellite payloads. By separating light signals across different wavelength bands, these filters enable satellite cameras to achieve sub-meter resolution and "see through" obstacles.
- Jilin Practice: Changguang Chenspu has custom-developed high-precision filters for the “Jilin-1” satellite, helping Jilin take the lead nationwide in smart agriculture.

In the interview, Yang Fei, General Manager of Changguang Chenspu, closely tied his remarks to the Two Sessions’ theme of “Accelerating the Development of New-Generation Productive Forces,” sharing his insights: “The Government Work Report emphasizes ‘strengthening the role of enterprises as the main body of scientific and technological innovation,’ a point we deeply resonate with. Changguang Chenspu’s journey from the laboratory to industrialization has been driven by ten years of relentless technological breakthroughs—breaking the foreign monopoly on high-end optical filters and enabling satellites to be equipped with ‘China’s own core technology.’”
Innovative Breakthrough: The “Spatial Spectral Filter,” independently developed by the company, represents a breakthrough in technological innovation and achieves domestically leading performance.
Industry Empowerment: Currently, Changguang Chenspu’s products have been applied in over 20 fields, including remote sensing satellites, industrial inspection, and biomedicine, driving collaborative innovation among numerous upstream and downstream technology enterprises.
“Light” Shines on Jilin: A Small Filter Sparks a Big Industry
As a “chain-based enterprise” in Jilin’s optoelectronics industry, Changguang Chenspu is leveraging innovation as its cornerstone to drive the upgrading of the regional industrial cluster.
First, we must strengthen our commitment to “what the nation needs and what Jilin is capable of.” The optoelectronic information industry is a key strength for Jilin Province, and optical thin-film technology in the field of deep-space exploration represents a major strategic need for the nation. Chenpu has set its sights squarely on this area, leveraging the power of our enterprise to serve the nation’s overarching priorities.
Second, we must uphold innovation across the entire chain—from the laboratory to the production line. Technological innovation cannot stop at papers and patents; it must be deeply integrated with industrial needs to create solutions that are both scalable and ready for practical application.
Third, we must firmly embrace the concept of “open collaboration.” It is difficult to break through complex technological barriers by working alone; therefore, we must join forces with universities, research institutes, and upstream and downstream enterprises to build innovative consortiums.
