From "Made in China" to "Made in China", China enterprises still need to do these steps well.
CCTV News:Under the background of complicated and changeable international trade environment and slow recovery of international investment, although some enterprises have moved their manufacturing bases from China to lower-cost areas, more investors are optimistic about the future development of China market.
In the process of moving towards the high end of the global value chain, where should China enterprises compete in the value chain? From "Made in China" to "Made in China", what efforts should be made? A number of business representatives discussed these issues in the column "On Tao".
Pang Guanglian, Secretary-General of China Petroleum and Chemical Industry International Capacity Cooperation Enterprise Alliance: In the process of this value chain reconstruction, some China enterprises have moved to Southeast Asia due to the increase of this cost, but recently we were in Zhejiang, and I recently visited more than 40 enterprises in Zhejiang. Many Zhejiang enterprises went to Vietnam and Cambodia, and after investing, they came back two years later, because China is the most complete among all industrial categories stipulated by the United Nations, with supporting infrastructure and industry.
You Feifeng, Chairman of Huafeng New Materials Company: From a long-term perspective, if we carry out some industrial transfer, it must be considered by some comprehensive factors, which is called comprehensive cost in our industry. Although it is said that low-end industries will inevitably move to some areas with lower comprehensive costs, some high-end industries may still develop further in some industries under the influence of such factors as being close to resources and some markets.
Pang Guanglian: But we must also see a trend now. The production focus of our entire petrochemical products has indeed shifted from west to east. Now China has occupied 39.4% of the world’s chemical production, which is close to 40%. According to BASF’s new CEO, it is possible that by 2030, the total output value of China’s chemical industry will occupy half of the whole world, and then a major change will take place.
Another is the focus of production, which gradually concentrates on the supply places of raw material production resources. In recent years, the flammable oil and gas in the United States has risen rapidly. As Mr. kadouri said yesterday, the total investment in the petrochemical industry in the United States in recent years has reached 230 billion US dollars, which is an amazing data. Many China enterprises, including those present here, are now choosing to invest in the Middle East, so now the whole world market is inseparable. You have me and I have you. Whether we let foreign-funded enterprises enter China or China enterprises go abroad, Chinese and foreign enterprises will cooperate with each other. This is the way to be king in the future.
You Feifeng: In the development of Huafeng for many years, it also relies on the introduction of some technologies from BASF and Kostron in China and the investment from their factories in China, which has provided us with some very stable help in the supply of raw materials for upstream resources.
In this process, Huafeng has sold some of our own products to BASF and Costron through years of development and some breakthroughs in its own products. Therefore, in the layout of the whole industrial chain, everyone is in a very high degree of cooperation and a state of common development and sharing development with all parties in the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain.
Lei Huanli, President of Kostron China: I think we are very happy from Kostron or myself, that is to say, we will continue to open wider to the outside world.
Second, I said that this openness is an ideological openness. This ideological openness is how to make these partners in each value chain stronger. We should do our duty as local residents or citizens. That responsibility means that we have some good practices and practices that we can learn from. We are willing to discuss with all partners in the value chain. This concept, which goes back to our company, is sustainable development. We should pay enough attention to the respect of resources, because resources are owned by everyone, shared by all and the earth, and we can’t squander them at will.
If we can work together and do this thing well together, I think it will be very, very good As a multinational company, we are deeply involved in this market. When we regard ourselves as a local market, we actually have this responsibility. We are also willing to fulfill this obligation and do this with our partners or with the government.
Yu Feng, Chairman of Honeywell China: Because Honeywell itself is a company with a sales volume of US$ 40 billion and a market value of more than US$ 100 billion, it has a large business in the world. We have some experience in so many businesses, and we also have many lessons, experiences and lessons to tell us. If an enterprise wants to be sustainable in a market, it must make use of its own advantages and the advantages of local partners, so win-win cooperation is the long-term direction in the future.
Second, there is another important method, that is, innovation. No matter how the value chain changes in the future, we must have our own original technology and depth. We must firmly believe that only depth will make this enterprise have a high level. Innovation costs money, and innovation needs lasting investment.
Therefore, my third suggestion must be management. We have some original inventions in the world ten years ago, and the market share in China is zero. Why? It’s not that the technology is bad, but that the price is too high and the cost is too high. Our cost is higher than the price that our customers in China can accept. So what should we do? Through management, these technologies have been localized and cooperated with local suppliers, and the cost has been greatly reduced. Therefore, these technologies have experienced triple-digit growth in China in the past few years. Therefore, as management requires efficiency, after improving efficiency, it will be fed back to our research and development and our innovation.
