Changjiang Shipbuilding Group is a large shipbuilding group with Jiangyin Changjiang Shipyard and Jingjiang New Yangzi Shipyard as its core. Ren Yuanlin, chairman of the group, told reporters that from a small shipyard to a leading private shipbuilding enterprise in China, the Yangtze River shipbuilding industry has created one miracle after another with the courage of its ancestors:
Five years ago, when the demand of the international shipping market continued to heat up and the shipbuilding industry flourished, Yang Zijiang Shipyard had begun to guard against industry risks. They took the lead in building a modern new Yangtze River Shipbuilding Company in Jingjiang City on the north bank of the Yangtze River. Through rapid expansion and physical fitness, the company's annual shipbuilding capacity has soared from 300,000 tons to 2 million tons, ranking among the top ten shipbuilding industries in China.
On April 28th, two years ago, Changjiang Shipping was listed on Singapore Stock Exchange. This private shipping enterprise in China was listed as the "first share", which raised 5.5 billion yuan at the best time of the global shipping market, and raised sufficient funds for the expansion and development of the enterprise. After that, the shipping industry of the Yangtze River expanded rapidly. At the end of the year, it signed a contract with COSCO Group to build 20 4250TEU container ships, with a single contract amount exceeding 654.38 billion yuan, making it the largest shipbuilding order in China. In the past two years, the company has recruited more than 30 people from several famous large-scale shipbuilding enterprises in Shanghai to form a middle and high-level management team, which is also the largest among domestic shipyards.
1 year ago, Yang Zijiang Shipbuilding invested 30 million yuan to acquire Shanghai Gao Heng Ship Design Company, and then spent more than 80 million yuan to buy a design building in Pudong, Shanghai, and built the China Shipbuilding Center-Enterprise Technology Center in Shanghai, thus ending the long history of relying on external forces to design ships and becoming the first local shipyard in China to acquire design companies.
Ren Yuanlin said that owning his own design company can not only develop the ship type that belongs to his own copyright and integrate design with production and operation, but also further deepen shipbuilding production design, shorten shipbuilding cycle and improve product quality. When Governor Luo Zhijun visited Jingjiang last year, he expressed his appreciation for this: "Design is an important link to vigorously develop the ship supporting industry. Whoever masters the design will master the leading role of industrial development. "
Ren Yuanlin believes that "it is precisely because we are one step ahead of other shipyards that we have strengthened the strength and anti-risk ability of enterprises. Although the current financial crisis has an impact on the Yangtze River shipping industry, it will not hurt the bones. " He said that as long as world trade exists, ocean-going aircraft carriers are needed and shipbuilding industry is needed. At present, the shipbuilding industry is in a new round of adjustment and "shuffling" period. Only by transforming the market pressure into the driving force of striving for strength and speeding up the transformation and upgrading can we win in the cruel competition and become more powerful.
At present, Yang Zijiang Shipbuilding Group holds a ship order of 155 with a contract value of 48 1 100 million yuan, which can meet the production tasks of new and old shipyards as high as 201. In particular, the 90-ship orders held by the new shipyard are 92500DWT bulk carriers and 4250TEU container ships, which have a lot of room for adjustment, and the shipowners are mostly first-class and high-quality customers at home and abroad. Ren Yuanlin said, "On this basis, the shipping industry of the Yangtze River has more confidence to rise against the market. The group clearly stated that the growth rate of sales revenue will remain above 30% this year, and the per capita income of 10,000 employees will increase by 10%. "
