On October 17, Shao Jun, Chairman of China Cement Network, and his delegation visited the headquarters of Oriental Hope Group and were warmly received by Liu Yongxing, Chairman of Oriental Hope Group. The two sides had in-depth exchanges on enterprise development, market situation and development prospects of the cement industry.
Liu Yongxing thanked China Cement Network for its long-term concern for the development of Dongfang Hope Group's cement industry, and introduced the Group's business development and the concept of circular economy. Liu Yongxing said that in recent years, under the guidance of four concepts, Oriental Hope Group has coupled the upstream and downstream integration projects of heavy chemical industry into chains and clusters, and created comparative advantages through industrial integration and development and d iversified operation.
Liu Yongxing pointed out that when the industry is at its normal development and peak, "scale is king" and when the industry is at its low ebb, "cost is king". At present, the cement market has changed from the high growth orientation of "scale is king" to the high quality orientation of "quality is king" and "cost is king". Opportunities and challenges coexist in the industry. Enterprises must strengthen technological innovation, actively promote energy-saving and consumption-reducing technological transformation, strengthen lean management, and achieve healthy development. Under the expectation of the downward demand of the cement industry, only by doing substantial work to eliminate production capacity, can industry develop better.
Shao Jun affirmed the development achievements of Dongfang Hope Group in recent years, and highly appraised the comprehensive competitiveness and innovation of Dongfang Hope Fengdu Cement in Chongqing regional cement enterprises. He pointed out that in the current market, Oriental Hope has achieved good business results, leading the industry's energy-saving innovation and green transformation, which is a leader in the industry. During the
exchange, both sides indicated that they should continue to strengthen sharing and exchanges and make positive contributions to promoting the green transformation and high-quality development of the cement industry. Also
participating in the exchange were: Meng Changjun, General Manager of Oriental Hope Group Investment, Wu Shufang, General Manager of Heavy Industry Marketing, Wang Jun, Director of Building Materials Marketing, Chen Yongwei, Secretary of the Chairman, Zheng Jianhui, Chief Analyst of China Cement Research Institute, and Zhou Liqun, Chief Editor of China Cement Network Media Department.
