Confidence is stronger
Love to fight to win! In January this year, Shandong Tengda Fastening Technology Co., Ltd. sounded the "first bell" of the province's enterprises listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. As a major manufacturer in the global stainless steel fastener industry, the person in charge of the company said: "Chinese private enterprises in the new era should seek benefits from scientific and technological research and development, and we are confident in the future." ”
At the beginning of the new year, a series of positive signals to promote the development of private enterprises, such as "encouraging and attracting more private capital to participate in major national projects such as railways and nuclear power and the construction of projects to make up for shortcomings such as energy, water conservancy, and ecological and environmental protection", and "gradually increasing the proportion of loans to private enterprises", have continued to be released, and "activating the development of private economy" has been included in the development tasks of many places and departments in 2024.
Wei Dong, director of the National Development and Reform Commission's Private Economic Development Bureau, recently introduced that the Private Economic Development Bureau is establishing a monitoring index system for the development of the private economy, and will pay close attention to and promote the timely resolution of major emerging and trending problems. At the same time, it is also organizing and carrying out research on major topics to optimize the environment for the development of the private economy during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, and continue to provide good services for the development of the private economy.

Set new goals
Gansu Jintuo Lithium New Energy has just formulated a New Year's plan: to build an 18 GWh lithium iron phosphate prismatic energy storage battery production project to help Jinchang become the largest energy storage battery production base in Northwest China.
In November last year, the first batch of products of the company's 2 GWh lithium iron phosphate prismatic energy storage battery production project was successfully rolled off the assembly line, which is the first wind and photovoltaic energy storage battery production project in Gansu.
The rapid growth of wind power and photovoltaic has driven the rapid development of the energy storage battery market, and we are very optimistic about the energy storage battery market. Li Zemei, director of the company's strategic planning center, said that Jinchang City, where the company is located, is the nickel capital of China, and more than 75% of the local production of nickel, cobalt and other materials used in the production of energy storage batteries can be realized, which provides strong support for the company to anchor the new goal.
At present, high-quality development has put forward higher requirements for the development of the private economy. The private economy is constantly expanding to new industries and new forms of business such as high-tech industries and modern service industries, and the proportion of capital-intensive and technology-intensive products continues to increase, which has become an indispensable and important force in China's scientific and technological innovation.
Active in emerging industries, the industrial structure of private enterprises continues to be optimized. In the "2023 China's Top 500 Private Enterprises", the key technologies of 414 enterprises are mainly independent development and research and development. More than ninety percent of enterprises have implemented or plan to implement digital transformation at different levels, and nearly ninety percent of enterprises have taken various measures to implement green and low-carbon development.
We have rooted innovation in the development of our business, and our annual R&D investment is not less than 10% of sales. Lin Xiaofa, chairman of Fujian Jiumu Group, said that since January, the factory has been almost at full capacity, especially the orders for smart toilets, digital hardware, custom wardrobes and other production lines have long been full.
In 2024, we plan to deploy stores in the Belt and Road countries to further expand overseas markets." He said.
Foreign trade "take the lead".
In 2024, we will continue to increase overseas investment and strive to transform from cross-border trade circulation to in-depth manufacturing. Ma Lei, vice president of Guangzhou Zhuoyi International Group, said that the foreign trade performance of private enterprises is outstanding, first of all, thanks to the country's complete industrial system and strong production capacity, and the products have sufficient international competitiveness.
Seizing the opportunities of new forms and models of foreign trade such as cross-border e-commerce, private enterprises have shown strong vitality with their flexible "figures". According to the data released by the General Administration of Customs a few days ago, in 2023, the status of private enterprises as the main body of stable foreign trade will be further consolidated, and it has been the largest foreign trade operator in China for five consecutive years, and the cumulative proportion of imports and exports in China's total foreign trade value will reach 535%。
In the past few days, in the production workshop of Runhe Biotechnology in Lanzhou New Area, the automated feed production and processing line is converting barley from Kazakhstan into feed. Xu Wei, the relevant person in charge of the company, said that the company mainly imports barley, corn and other raw materials from Kazakhstan through the Central Asia train, and then processes them into feed to ensure domestic feed.
At present, the daily processing capacity of barley is about 300 tons. In a few days, a train loaded with 1,350 tons of Kazakhstan corn will arrive in the new area to ensure the raw material needs of the enterprise. Xu Wei said that the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" and the stable operation of the Central Asian train provide a great opportunity for the healthy development of enterprises, and the future will also take the opportunity to open up overseas import channels and further expand the scale of production.
