For 40 years, the waves were magnificent. 40 years, earth shattering. The 40 years of China's reform and opening up have been a period of vigorous development in the Chinese building materials industry, as well as a period of rapid growth for China Building Materials Group. On December 17th, Chairman Song Zhiping gave a keynote speech at the 2nd Building Materials Industry Economic Forum, "Believing in the Future, Believing in Reform and Opening up". He reviewed the group's 40 years of glory and growth, looked forward to the direction and future of the enterprise, and proposed building a new era of symbiosis, sharing, common prosperity, and common prosperity in the industry. The following is the full text of the speech.
The forty years of China's reform and opening up have been a period of vigorous development in the Chinese building materials industry, as well as a period of rapid growth for China Building Materials Group. Over the past forty years, with the leadership, assistance, and support of the State owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, the former State Administration of Building Materials, and the Building Materials Federation, China Building Materials has grown from small seedlings to towering trees and dense forests. From introducing technology to going global, from enterprise reform and listing to industry restructuring, from following innovation to leading innovation, from Fortune 500 to world-class, we have gone through countless obstacles and finally welcomed today's glory. Chinese building materials have gone through 40 years Forty years of glory and dreams, forty years of tragedy and glory. For forty years, we have put in effort and sweat; Over the past forty years, we have gained both career and life. Looking back at the 40 year long history of Chinese building materials, one cannot help but feel a thousand regrets. Looking back at the path that the enterprise has gone through over forty years and summarizing its development experience, the achievements are worth summarizing, and the experience is precious.
Forty years is the forty years of China's building materials reform and opening up.Since Comrade Deng Xiaoping inspected the experimental building of China Building Materials in the autumn of 1979, China Building Materials has been born from the opening up and introduction of technology. Opening up has promoted reform, and reform has increased openness. It is during the reform and opening up that China Building Materials has developed and grown. Chinese building materials companies were the earliest to undergo restructuring and go public in the industry, and also the earliest to go public overseas; China Building Materials was the first to propose the concept of "state-owned enterprises and municipal enterprises", which is precisely the embryonic form of mixed ownership. China Building Materials integrated China's "small, scattered, and chaotic" cement industry through mixed ownership; China Building Materials has created one business platform after another using mixed ownership; China National Building Materials has restructured its high-tech enterprises overseas, achieving technological overtaking on bends; China Building Materials has successfully implemented a two material restructuring, creating a brand new China Building Materials industry that has changed the overall process of the building materials industry and also influenced the global landscape of the building materials industry.
These scenes from the reform and opening up seem to have happened just yesterday. What is unforgettable for us is that, as we face heavy pressure in restructuring Southern Cement, Comrade Xi Jin Ping, then Secretary of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee, personally sent us a congratulatory letter, encouraging us, "Congratulations to Southern Cement on achieving its strategic integration goals as soon as possible, continuously exploring new paths for the reform and development of state-owned enterprises, and making greater contributions to promoting regional cooperation and coordinated development." Today we can report to General Secretary Xi that over the past ten years, the restructuring of southern cement has been a complete success and has not failed to live up to general secretary's expectations . Recalling the past, there is no reform and opening up China's building materials today.
Forty years is the forty years of hard work and entrepreneurship in China's building materials industry.As a grassroots state-owned enterprise, China National Building Materials has gone through many difficulties. We were a group of people who had suffered defeats when we first entered the market, and a group of people who faced difficulties and hardships. But we don't want to sacrifice or give up easily. We have to climb hard and fly against the wind again and again, whether it is restructured cement, whether it is listed overseas, whether it is restructured two materials, whether it is marching into the "the Belt and Road", how many sleepless nights, how many unforgettable Li Ming, how many silent sobs, how many successful joys, and how many Chinese building materials people use the "5+2" and "white plus black" struggle, Realized the goal of turning the impossible into possible. Reform is full of sweet and sour memories for Chinese building materials. Reform has never been as romantic as pastoral poetry, and there are too many pains and tears in reform.
Forty years is the forty years of innovative development in China's building materials industry.Once upon a time, our complete sets of equipment for cement and gypsum boards were imported from the West, while technologies such as float glass and fiberglass were subject to technological blockade. However, with the spirit of self-reliance and independent innovation, Chinese building materials professionals have created world-class cement production lines, glass production lines, 60 million square meters of gypsum board production lines, 100000 tons of tank kiln drawing production lines, as well as carbon fiber, TFT glass, and solar power generation glass from China Building Materials A large number of new material projects, such as lithium battery separators and silicon nitride industrial ceramic bearings, have achieved quantitative production. China Building Materials has exceeded 10000 technology patents, and its technology not only supports the development of China's building materials industry, but also the world's building materials industry.
Forty years is the forty years of internationalization for China's building materials industry.From the initial export exchange of products, to the export of complete sets of technologies that later accounted for 65% of the world market, and now to the implementation of the "Six Ones" plan for China Building Materials to go global, China Building Materials has gone through ups and downs in the international market and has developed into a comprehensive multinational building materials company. Whether it's the scorching Middle East or the widely acclaimed Africa, whether it's the grasslands of Mongolia or the wilderness of Latin America, whether it's the European continent or the mainland of America, the flags of Chinese building materials can be seen flying everywhere. Chinese Building Materials Moving towards the Future In the future, we will face many uncertain factors, including the rise of international trade protectionism and the pain of domestic economic transformation. However, the only thing that remains unchanged is to continue reform and opening up. Forty years ago, the driving force of reform came from suffering, and China Building Materials also rose up for survival. "Why is China Building Materials?" This is a question raised by many people. My answer is "because China Building Materials is too difficult, comfortable people will not reform, and reform is not someone's sudden inspiration. Reform is forced and forced.". Forty years ago, when faced with difficulties, it was easy for everyone to form a consensus on reform. This was the reason why everyone worked together in that great reform, which solved the problem of whether there was any. Today, the reform is based on the foundation of the economy and the reality that some people in our country have become wealthy. The reason for the reform is our deep-seated risks and the uncertainty of the future. Today's reform aims to address the issues of balance and adequacy, to realize the people's aspirations for a better life, and to address the issue of whether it is good or not. Reform not only means gaining, but also means giving. Reform is the price we pay for our path to civilization. Compared to the reform of forty years ago, today's reform is even more difficult to form a consensus. However, historical experience tells us that without reform, problems will accumulate, opportunities will be lost, and there will be no future. If a society does not undergo continuous reform, it will either cause social regression or cause major social unrest. Over the past forty years, we have achieved remarkable success through reform and opening up; In the future, we will continue to shine with reform and opening up. China Building Materials believes in the future and believes in reform and opening up. In the future, China Building Materials will accelerate the pace of enterprise reform.In the new era, China Building Materials Association will strengthen the Party's leadership, mechanism revolution, and entrepreneurial spirit. Implement the two principles of consistency, allowing the Party's leadership to guide the direction, manage the overall situation, and ensure implementation in the enterprise. We should vigorously promote the construction of incentive mechanisms such as employee stock ownership, management stock plans, and technology dividend rights, so that owners, managers, and workers can share their achievements, and asset capital and human capital can jointly create and share corporate wealth. This will enable cadres and employees of enterprises to afford houses and give them the social dignity they deserve. China Building Materials is an enterprise with the spirit of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurs are a scarce resource in the market, and entrepreneurs are rare but not sought after. China Building Materials will prioritize protecting entrepreneurs and promoting entrepreneurial spirit, encouraging innovation, tolerating failure, and ensuring that those who work hard do not suffer losses, and that those who sweat do not shed tears. In the future, China Building Materials will become more open, promoting the development of enterprises through openness.We will actively participate in international division of labor cooperation, conduct global procurement, complement each other's cooperation, and achieve mutual benefit. We will jointly develop the third-party market with multinational companies. On the "the Belt and Road" initiative, we adhere to the three principles of "making contributions to the local economy, cooperating with local enterprises, and doing good things for the local people", not only "going out", but also "going in". We will respect intellectual property more, which is the foundation for us to enhance our independent innovation capabilities and deal with Western technology companies. We need to both "go out" and "bring in", to achieve "you have me, I have you", and to achieve "China is the world's factory, the world is China's factory; the world is China's market, China is the world's market". The market with a population of 1.4 billion in China is the ocean, which can accommodate all the rivers in the world. Chinese building materials can rely on the two major markets of China and the world, which is a unique condition. Therefore, we are more confident in opening up. In the future, China Building Materials will increase its efforts in innovation and transformation.Our country's economy has transitioned from high-speed growth to high-quality development, and China Building Materials has also set the goal of becoming a world-class enterprise with global competitiveness. We will increase integrated and independent innovation, increase investment in science and technology, and build world-class laboratories, striving to develop into an innovative investment industry group. China Building Materials will implement a four modernizations transformation towards "high-end, green, intelligent, and international". Implementing the three precision management of "organizational refinement, management refinement, and lean operation" in enterprise management enables enterprises to achieve a transformation from quantity to quality, from speed to efficiency, and from large to great. In the future, China Building Materials will become a more inclusive enterprise.China Building Materials believes in a market culture where the interests of the industry are higher than those of the enterprise, and the interests of the enterprise are embedded in the interests of the industry. China Building Materials will serve as a model for industry health and market competition, taking the lead in staggered production, restricting new additions, eliminating outdated products, and promoting market self-discipline. China National Building Materials Corporation (CNBM) will adhere to the principle of competitive neutrality. CNBM Group is a state-owned enterprise and an investment oriented group in the field of building materials and new materials. Its main purpose is to promote industry structural adjustment, industrial upgrading, and technological progress. China Building Materials is in a highly competitive field and has developed through investment in mixed ownership enterprises. For example, Beixin Building Materials only has 15% state-owned shares and China Jushi only has 12%. Chinese building materials investment enterprises compete on an equal footing with other enterprises in the market as mixed ownership enterprises. They should add glory to the country and take the lead in implementing national policies, but they should never assume that they are state-owned enterprises. They should compete in the market with a competitive neutrality requirement, eliminate ownership barriers, and engage in friendly competition and cooperation with common rules. China National Building Materials also regards helping and supporting private enterprises as its mission, achieving common progress among the people and family unity. As the ancients said, "The way of heaven is beneficial without harm, and the way of sages is not disputed." China Building Materials will uphold this ancient heritage of China and be committed to building a new era of building materials industry that is symbiotic, shared, prosperous, and prosperous.
The sea is flowing, the stars are changing, the road is long and arduous, and the responsibility is on our shoulders. Chinese building materials professionals know who they are, where they came from, and where they are heading. What Chinese building materials cannot forget is the original intention at the time of departure, and what cannot be lost is the cherished dream. China Building Materials will forge ahead with courage, believing in the future and reform and opening up……
Every industry, every era, has iconic influential figures, and their names are the industry imprints of an era. The Second China Building Materials Industry Economic Forum also unveiled the "Influential Figures of China's Building Materials Industry Reform and Opening up for 40 Years" award, which was awarded to Song Zhiping. Qiao Longde, President of the China Building Materials Federation, and Zhang Renren, former Director of the National Building Materials Bureau, presented awards to Song Zhiping. Song Zhiping delivered an award speech:I think this honor is heavy, not only rewarding me, but also rewarding 250000 people from China Building Materials Group behind me. I am very grateful for this great era, because our ancestors did not see the glory of our country today, our children did not know the hardships of yesterday, and our generation has experienced the hardships of entrepreneurship and enjoyed the glory of entrepreneurship, which is not something that every life can achieve. We are lucky to have experienced such a great era! …… |
