The plant, scheduled to be completed in three years, will cover 280,000 square meters. It will produce personal computers, servers and other smart electronic products, Lenovo said in a statement.
With a total investment of 2 billion yuan ($287.6 million), the factory will be able to produce 15 million PCs a year, which can advance the development of relevant supply chains, Lenovo added.
The world's largest personal computer maker said it aims to build the plant into a model of digital manufacturing and industrial 4.0, so as to inject new vitality to industrial upgrading.
Qiao Song, senior vice-president of Lenovo, said the company will accelerate construction of the plant, while taking measures to prevent infection among employees amid the novel coronavirus outbreak.
