On January 11, 2024, the 2nd Hubei Iron and Steel Chain Conference and Central China Metal Materials Industry Expo was held in Han.
With the theme of "New Materials, New Economy, and New Pattern", the conference carried out a multi-dimensional and multi-level development of the steel industry chain. The conference was hosted by Wuhan Municipal Bureau of Economy and Information Technology, Wuhan Metal Materials Circulation Association, and co-organized by Wuhan Iron and Steel Group, Hubei Jiaotou Logistics Group, bringing together more than 500 experts and scholars from steel mills, associations, steel circulation enterprises and entrepreneurs in the steel industry chain.
According to the analysis of the relevant person in charge of Lange Steel, the demand for automobiles, shipbuilding and steel structures in China will increase in 2023. According to the relevant person in charge of Dongfeng Motor Group's first R&D Institute, the characteristics of steel for new energy vehicles have changed greatly under the background of double carbon, and the decoupling of upper and lower body structures, integrated design and molding are the key development directions of vehicle design and manufacturing in the future. In the future, 70% of the steel used in vehicle manufacturing will be high value-added steel. Whether it is shipbuilding or car manufacturing, it has put forward higher requirements for the traditional steel industry. The reporter also learned that WISCO's silicon steel products are used in large-scale projects such as Baihetan Hydropower Station and Positron Collider and national key projects.
Zhang Zhixue, president of Wuhan Metal Materials Circulation Association, introduced that transformation and upgrading is the main line of development of the steel industry, and the technical content of steel products continues to improve through the development of high-end, intelligent and green. It is necessary to give full play to the advantages of Hubei iron and steel industry chain through the conference, drive the innovation and development of upstream and downstream enterprises in the iron and steel industry chain, continue to extend, supplement, strengthen and optimize the chain, and build a development ecology of interdependence and mutual promotion of large and medium-sized enterprises. The association has created the Hubei Iron and Steel Chain Conference, the Wuhan Gold Association Chain Research Institute, and the Wuhan Gold Association Spot Network, which are "one meeting, one hospital, one platform", and will rely on the steel expo brand to provide supply and demand docking and other services in the future to help the industry enhance the resilience of the industrial chain and the independent and controllable ability of the first chain.

According to the relevant person in charge of Wuhan Economic and Information Bureau, the steel industry, as an advantageous traditional pillar industry in Wuhan, carries the history and glory of urban development. In recent years, the supply-side structural reform has been deepened, and the pace of structural adjustment, transformation and upgrading of leading enterprises has accelerated. Known as the "eldest son of the Republic of Iron and Steel", Wuhan Iron and Steel has developed into the country's largest high-quality electrical steel production base and the country's four major rail beam production bases, driving a number of upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain, promoting Wuhan to initially form an industrial pattern of "one base and five yuan + steel ecosystem", and high-quality development has shown initial results.
At present, under the background of the "dual control" and "double carbon" policies and the transformation of new and old kinetic energy of economic development, the development of the steel industry has entered a period of deep adjustment with the theme of high-quality development. As long as we seize the opportunity and transform and upgrade, the steel industry can still become the "hard backbone" of high-quality economic development.
According to reports, Hubei Province and Wuhan City have formulated and introduced a series of policies and measures to support the transformation and upgrading of the steel industry, promote the transformation and upgrading of the steel industry to high-end, intelligent, green and efficient, and form a complete industrial chain, value chain, first chain and innovation chain from upstream materials to downstream applications.
During the steel expo, Wuhan iron and steel industry chain supply and demand docking activities, the second Hubei iron and steel chain conference was held at the same time, the scene, Baowu Group Echeng Iron and Steel *** Ma'anshan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. *** Hunan Valin Lianyuan Iron and Steel *** Shanxi Jingang Intelligent Manufacturing Technology Industry *** Hubei Jiaotong ** Chain Management *** and other upstream and downstream enterprises from the national industrial chain participated in the docking. The 2023 Wuhan Top 50 Steel Circulation Industry Awards were also held at the scene to commend the most influential steel brands in Wuhan and the top 50 series winners in Wuhan's steel circulation industry.
According to the relevant person in charge of the Wuhan Municipal Bureau of Economy and Information Technology, in order to promote the upstream and downstream cooperation of the industrial chain and further integrate the Wuhan market, in 2023, a series of supply and demand docking activities such as industrial product promotion and exchange meetings and "government and enterprises go to the market hand in hand" will be carried out around key industries such as steel materials and downstream applications, so as to promote cooperation and common development of upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain. At the same time, in order to actively respond to the cyclical trough of the industry, the bureau vigorously supports enterprises to seize opportunities for transformation and upgrading, and serves enterprises to accelerate a series of technological transformation projects such as product structure adjustment and green and low-carbon transformation, so as to improve quality and efficiency and promote high-quality development.
