" meeting. On behalf of Hubei Cement Industry Association, Gui Tongsheng expressed his heartfelt thanks to the Social Work Department of the Hubei Provincial Committee and the competent departments such as the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, the Civil Affairs Department, the Economic and Credit Department, the Ecological Environment Department and the Market Supervision and Administration Bureau for their long-term concern and guidance to the cement industry in Hubei Province. I would like to express my sincere thanks to China Cement Association, Provincial Building Materials Federation and all entrepreneurs for their trust, support and assistance to the work of the Association. Gui Tongsheng pointed out that in the past year, the cement industry has entered a downward cycle due to multiple factors such as the aggravation of overcapacity and the continued weakness of demand. The cement industry in Hubei Province is "weak in both volume and price", and the price reduction is higher than the national average. The cement industry in Hubei has faced the challenges and overcome the difficulties together, and has made hard-won and valuable achievements: First, the green and low-carbon development has achieved remarkable results, with 21 clinker production lines in the province reaching the benchmark level of energy efficiency and 5 new state-level "green factories". A number of enterprises have been rated as environmental performance B and above; Second, the overseas business expansion is effective, and the overseas production capacity of Hubei cement enterprises exceeds 24 million tons (including those under construction) ; Thirdly, there are many bright spots in scientific and technological innovation. Huaxin's six intelligent innovation systems have won the title of "National Intellectual Property Advantage Enterprise", and the high-level intelligent production line of Queshi Cement has been put into operation; Fourth, the development of the service industry is more vigorous, hosting the 10th China Cement Industry Environmental Investment Summit Forum, invited to participate in the steady growth conference of the building materials industry in Hubei Province; Fifth, there is more warmth in fulfilling social responsibility. < a href = "https://price.ccement.com/brandnewslist-1-1000035.

Gui Tongsheng said that under the extremely difficult situation, the cement industry in Hubei Province can achieve the above results." The root lies in the strong leadership and strong support of the provincial Party Committee and the provincial government, and the key lies in the brave struggle and hard work of all member enterprises. In 2024, Hubei Cement Industry Association will focus on the three aspects of "making every effort to stabilize growth and promote the industry to return to the track of healthy development", "accelerating transformation and upgrading, accelerating the construction of new quality productivity", "strengthening platform construction and playing the role of bridge and link of the association". Guo Shiqing, Vice President of

Hubei Cement Industry Association, read out a congratulatory letter from Hubei Building Materials Federation. The congratulatory letter mentioned that it is an objective fact that the cement industry is facing a sharp decline in demand and profits. It is hoped that the cement industry in Hubei will be aggressive, confident, self-disciplined and self-reliant in changing its mode, adjusting its structure, improving its quality and increasing its efficiency, and strive to promote the high-quality development of the building materials industry in Hubei.

He Jikun pointed out that it is necessary to correctly understand the importance of legal and compliant operation, deeply draw lessons from negative typical cases, and continuously standardize business practices; it is necessary to thoroughly study the anti-monopoly law and other competition policies, improve the understanding of anti-monopoly laws and regulations, establish and improve the internal management system, and ensure that all work is carried out in compliance with regulations; We should strengthen industry self-discipline, abide by market rules, strengthen horizontal and vertical communication and exchanges, and form a joint force to promote the healthy development of the industry. In his speech,

Zheng Peng pointed out that we should correctly understand the requirements of the whole process of ultra-low emission transformation, comprehensively sort out the project nodes of ultra-low emission, grasp the opportunities of large-scale equipment renewal and replacement of old consumer goods, comprehensively promote the ultra-low emission transformation of cement industry, and achieve better results in energy saving, carbon reduction and environmental protection. To support the high-quality development of the industry with a high level of ecological environment protection.

Qiu Navy pointed out that we should "take a long-term view, do a good job in strategic planning", "seize opportunities, build new quality productivity", "extend the chain to supplement the chain, pay attention to the cooperation of the whole industrial chain", "persevere, do a good job in peak staggering production", "make use of advantages, build characteristic industrial bases", "keep the bottom line, and do a good job in safety production". To contribute new and greater strength to the stable economic growth of Hubei Province.

Li Chen, on behalf of China Cement Association, warmly congratulated the successful convening of the conference and delivered a speech entitled "Adhering to common values and pursuing win-win interests of the industry". The speech puts forward three aspects of thinking and suggestions: First, only by strengthening confidence can we cope with the difficult situation. It is necessary to recognize that the decline in demand is an inevitable stage in the development of the cement industry, but the driving force of economic development is still strong, and the demand will not fall off a cliff. In the long run, enterprises that have experienced market shocks and superior enterprises still have a good space for development. Second, only by sailing against the current can we show the true qualities of excellent entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs are the core competitiveness of enterprises, and cooperation is the essence of entrepreneurship. Cement enterprises and entrepreneurs should pay attention to politics, consider the overall situation, promote supply-side structural reform, and promote the steady growth of industry efficiency. Third, pursue win-win interests of the industry with common values. We should actively maintain and practice the advanced cultural values of the industry, strengthen industry self-discipline, vigorously promote transformation and upgrading, improve the level of high-end, intelligent and green development, and enhance their risk control capabilities. Cement enterprises should turn difficulties into driving forces, regard challenges as opportunities, adhere to the cultural self-confidence of advanced industries, firmly believe that a new round of market integration will bring new achievements in the structural reform of the supply side of the industry, and accelerate the pace of green, low-carbon, safe and high-quality development of the industry.
