He said that in recent years, Jianlong Group has continued to accelerate the pace of product structure adjustment and high-end product development around the implementation of the national manufacturing power strategy. On the one hand, we will deepen cooperation with central construction enterprises, and continue to increase the digital services of direct steel supply, deep processing of steel bars, procurement and orders, so as to build a comprehensive service provider in the construction industry and enhance the competitiveness of building materials products. On the other hand, we will strengthen cooperation with leading enterprises in the manufacturing industry, deeply cultivate the green and low-carbon development needs of downstream industries such as new energy vehicles, clean energy power generation, and oil extraction, increase investment in variety research and development and scientific and technological innovation, accelerate the pace of digital and intelligent transformation of production lines, improve the scientific and intelligent content of products themselves, support the development of new quality productivity in the manufacturing industry, and actively build a comprehensive service provider for high-end industrial steel.

When talking about the restructuring of Xining Special Steel, he pointed out that the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau region is rich in land, wind, light, water, minerals and other resources, and can play a good role as a green and clean energy base in the process of actively developing new quality productivity and promoting high-quality economic development, which is very attractive to building a green and low-carbon industrial chain. As the only special steel enterprise in the northwest region and the only iron and steel enterprise in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Xining Special Steel has great strategic significance and obvious brand advantages, and has great room for improvement in resource localization, market localization, management and technical level improvement. At the same time, Xining Special Steel, as a special steel listing platform, is of great significance to the brand value of Jianlong Group's special steel sector. He hoped that the two sides would take the cooperation of Xining Special Steel as an opportunity to strengthen comprehensive, systematic and deepen cooperation, strengthen communication and understanding in response to the pain points of industry and integration, jointly create a benchmark for bank-enterprise cooperation, and jointly write five major articles on science and technology finance, green finance, inclusive finance, pension finance and digital finance.

On the basis of systematic research and analysis, focus on key areas such as science and technology finance, green finance, and supply chain finance, deepen the partnership between the two sides, and sign a comprehensive cooperation agreement between the two sides to actively promote win-win development. He suggested that Jianlong Group should continue to maintain a steady development momentum, focus on product structure adjustment and quality improvement, unswervingly follow the green and low-carbon road, and continue to enhance its comprehensive competitive advantage.
