The Sixth Member Meeting of China Iron and Steel Association was held in Beijing
Gao Xiangming, the rotating chairman of Association in 2019, chairman of Taiyuan Iron and Steel Group, summarized the achievements of steel industry in the past five years in the report, including six aspects:
First, capacity reduction has been successful, and the industry has maintained continuous and stable operation. 1. Steel production has maintained a sustained high growth. 2.Total export volume of steel has decreased, structure has been optimized. 3. Steel prices have rebounded and stabilized. Fourth, industry profits have rebounded and asset-liability ratios have fallen.
The second is to promote ultra-low emission transformation, and the industry's green development level has been greatly improved. Shougang, Baowu, Anyang Iron and Steel, Hegang, Taiyuan Iron and Steel, Delong, Zhongtian and other iron and steel enterprises have vigorously promoted ultra-low emission transformation and took the lead in making breakthroughs. At the same time, equipment upgrades are carried out through reduction and replacement, and a number of energy-saving and environmental protection technologies and indicators have reached the world's advanced level.
Third, breakthroughs were made in mergers and reorganizations, and the industrial organization structure was further optimized. Shagang successfully reorganized Northeast Special Steel to seize the technological commanding heights, and ordinary steel became "special". These classic cases of "breaking the game" have played a positive role in demonstrating the cross-regional and cross-ownership "mixed reform".
Fourth, the iron and steel industry vigorously promotes technological innovation, and the comprehensive competitiveness of the industry has increased.
Fifth, "Going Global" has blossomed and the level of internationalization has improved. With the advancement of the "Belt and Road" construction and the release of the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting International Cooperation in Production Capacity and Equipment Manufacturing", steel companies have taken solid steps to "go global", and a number of important overseas steel production base projects have emerged.
Sixth, high-quality development of human resources in the industry. One is the significant increase in labor efficiency; the second is the significant optimization of the personnel structure; the third is the significant increase in the competitiveness of human capital.
