Chapter 116: Summit Forum
Under the leadership of Li Ruoyu and Mi Yun, Bai Yujing, director of the Huhai Municipal Construction Committee, Liu Dazhi, secretary of the Huhai Construction Engineering Administration, and other people visited the building of the Huhai Concrete Technology R&D Center. Bai Yujing has always been full of praise for the construction and layout of the entire R&D center, she didn't expect that the seemingly ordinary concrete would have such a high technical content, and there would be so much research content, which can be regarded as an eye-opener. It can be said that now the Huhai Concrete Technology R&D Center is the only one in the country in terms of personnel and equipment configuration.
After visiting the building, the group came to the third floor to hold the last activity of the unveiling ceremony, the Huhai Concrete Summit Forum. This summit is not only to carry out some academic exchanges, but more importantly, to take this opportunity to establish the Huhai Ready Mixed Concrete Association, led by the Huhai Construction Engineering Administration. The units that came to participate in the unveiling ceremony included all 12 concrete batching plants in Huhai City, and the meeting was to elect the chairman of the association, the vice chairman unit and the secretary-general of the permanent organization of the association. This is definitely a big deal in the ready-mixed concrete industry in Shanghai.
Of course, the first thing that takes place is academic exchanges. The host of the meeting is still Mi Yun, and the summit forum was attended by Bai Yujing, director of the Huhai Municipal Construction Committee, Liu Dazhi, secretary of the Huhai Construction Engineering Administration, Cheng Nantong, director of the bureau, Chen Dingbang, chief engineer, Zeng Guilin, president of the Huhai Institute of Building Research, Hu Yuanhong, chief engineer, Li Qing, dean of the School of Civil Engineering of Gongji University, Professor Jiang Zhengwen, director of the Huhai Concrete Technology Research and Development Center Li Ruoyu and the main technical backbone, and then the general manager and chief engineer of 12 concrete mixing plants.
The first to make a report was Chen Dingbang, chief engineer of Huhai Construction Engineering Administration, who held a report in his hand and began to speak: "Leaders, experts, colleagues, today I am very happy to make a report here entitled "Huhai ready-mixed concrete industry development status and prospects." As we all know, the rise of ready-mixed concrete in China has only been more than ten years, and developed countries have been very mature as early as the fifties and sixties, so we are far behind developed countries in terms of scale and technology. The germination of China's ready-mixed concrete industry began in 1978, but the vigorous development of China's ready-mixed concrete began in 1987. I still clearly remember that in April 1987, the inaugural meeting of the National Concrete Association was held in Beijing, and Xiao Tong, president of the China Construction Industry Federation, and Professor Wu Zhongwei, a famous concrete expert, both focused on the issue of vigorously developing China's ready-mixed concrete in their speeches. The next day, CCTV's evening news reported the scene of the inaugural meeting of the National Concrete Association, and emphasized that one of the missions of the association is to vigorously promote the development of ready-mixed concrete in China. ”
"At present, the total annual output of ready-mixed concrete in China is less than 10 million cubic meters, while the total annual output of ready-mixed concrete in the United States and Japan in the same period is more than 100 million cubic meters, and the gap in the use rate of ready-mixed concrete is even greater. Although our ready-mixed concrete in Shanghai developed earlier in the country, and the current output accounts for about 20% of the country, the overall development is still not fast enough. Our ready-mixed concrete complete sets of equipment, as the industry proverb goes, three cars on the first floor, is basically imported from abroad, these status quo has not been changed, the development of ready-mixed concrete in China has never been able to get up, so now our bureau is vigorously carrying out this work, one is to introduce advanced technology from abroad, by the Donghua Construction Machinery Factory under our bureau to explore and manufacture, to solve the problem of localization of concrete machinery. The second is to create our Huhai Concrete Technology R&D Center, which is the first in the country and the first provincial concrete technology R&D center. ”
"We expect that the future of infrastructure projects, real estate investment, water conservancy construction to speed up in an all-round way, especially the huge development space of urbanization will support the concrete industry this year and in the next few years into the track of rapid development, especially our Huhai City, as the country's largest open city, there will be more and more construction projects, this is an opportunity for our ready-mixed concrete industry, we can only grasp the opportunity to achieve the future." Thank you! Chen Dingbang excitedly ended his report.
The applause at the scene was thunderous, especially the general managers and chief engineers of the 12 concrete batching plants, who also fully felt the importance of the relevant government departments to the development of the ready-mixed concrete industry in Huhai City from this report.
Mi Yun said coquettishly: "Thank you Chief Engineer Chen for the report!" Next, I would like to invite Cheng Nantong, director of the Huhai Construction Engineering Administration, to make a report! Everyone is welcome! ”
In the middle of the applause, Cheng Nantong began to speak in a tone of no urgency: "Leaders, colleagues, hello everyone, the topic of my report today is to accelerate the development of the industry and expand the ready-mixed concrete market. As an indispensable material for infrastructure construction, concrete occupies an important position in the construction market. In China, with the development of the market economy, the ready-mixed concrete industry has shown great market charm, with the country's investment in infrastructure continues to increase, China's annual output of ready-mixed concrete will appear a rapid stage of development. It can be said that the nineties will be a golden period for the development of China's ready-mixed concrete, especially the ready-mixed concrete industry in Shanghai, and the profits in it are not available in other industries. Of course, at present, our ready-mixed concrete enterprises are state-owned or collectively owned enterprises, and there are no private enterprises or foreign-funded enterprises to enter. But in terms of structure, this is unhealthy, so we will vigorously promote private and foreign investment into the ready mixed concrete industry, and the introduction of competition will greatly promote the development of our ready mixed concrete industry, especially in concrete technology. ”
"Compared with developed countries, the gap in concrete production technology in China is still quite large. Except for sporadic projects, developed countries basically use ready-mixed concrete. At present, only a few large cities in China have ready-mixed concrete, but the penetration rate is not high, only a few percent. The ratio of ready-mixed concrete to the total amount of concrete can be used as a comprehensive index to examine the technical level of concrete production in a country, region or city, because many advanced technologies can only give full play to their role in the production of ready-mixed concrete, such as the use of admixtures, mixed materials and so on. Therefore, the improvement of these technologies, on the one hand, we need to vigorously advocate, on the other hand, we need to introduce competition, only under the competition our ready-mixed concrete industry will show a healthy and good development trend. Therefore, we welcome all walks of life to invest in the ready-mixed concrete industry and develop our ready-mixed concrete industry better. Thank you! ”
Cheng Nantong's voice fell, the venue and thunderous applause, although there are no people outside the industry today, but everyone agrees with Cheng Nantong's report, there is no market competition in the current Huhai concrete batching plant, so it is very conservative and rigid, if you do not break this situation, it is not a good thing for these concrete batching plants.
