Guangzhou Wenchong Shipyard is the Wenchong-side Guangzhou shipyard lineage now folded into CSSC Huangpu Wenchong Shipbuilding, a China State Shipbuilding Corporation yard group. Public maritime and defense sources connect the Wenchong yard with commercial shipbuilding, dredgers, special-purpose official vessels, and large maritime patrol ships, including the 10,000-ton-class Haixun 09.
