Create "China magnesium industry"! The Yangtze River Delta Integration Anhui Baomeng Project starts

On the morning of December 28th, the Yangtze River Delta integrated Anhui Bao magnesium annual output of 300000 tons of high-performance magnesium-based light alloy and deep processing project started in Qingyang County Economic Development Zone, Chizhou City, Anhui Province. The start of the Baosteel project is not only a milestone project for Baosteel and Yunhai Metals to jointly build "China's magnesium industry" and a "good tomorrow for magnesium", but also a practical action for China's Baowu to actively integrate into the integration of the Yangtze River Delta. What's more, China's Baowu further implements the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech and important instructions in inspecting and investigating Anhui Province and China's Baowu. To promote the vivid practice of strategic landing from iron and steel to materials.

Yang Guangrong, vice governor of Anhui Province, Hu Wangming, general manager and deputy secretary of China Baowu Party Committee, Hou Angui, member of the standing Committee and deputy general manager of China Baowu Party Committee, and Fang Zheng, secretary of Chizhou Municipal CPC Committee, jointly pressed the project launch ball and laid the foundation for the project.

In August last year, General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected and investigated China Baowu Maanshan Iron and Steel Group and stressed the need to seize the major opportunity of deepening the reform of state-owned enterprises and promoting the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta, strengthen research and development of new materials and technologies, develop and produce more new products with high technological content and high added value, and enhance market competitiveness. He also specifically instructed China's Baowu to strive to become a "stamina" enterprise, changing from "boss" to "strong".

In November last year, Baosteel Metal, Yunhai Metal and Qingyang Construction Investment Co., Ltd. jointly invested in Anhui Baomagnesia Light Alloy Co., Ltd., promoting the landing of a high-performance magnesium-based light alloy project with an annual output of 300000 tons. The project, with a planned investment of 12.35 billion yuan, has been included in the list of major projects in the 14th five-year Plan of the National Yangtze River Delta Integrated Development Plan and included in the key dispatching projects of Anhui Province in the 14th five-year Plan.

In October this year, Chen Derong, secretary of the party committee and chairman of China Baowu, pointed out at the 12th decision makers' seminar: China Baowu will shoulder its historical responsibility and practice the strategy of building a powerful country. It is necessary to become a global leader in iron and steel and advanced materials and a world-class great enterprise, and to become an important force and a powerful enterprise trusted by the party and people in the new era. The Anhui Baomeng project is an important measure for China Baowu to take the initiative to carry out strategic iterative upgrading, bearing in mind that General Secretary Xi Jinping asked China Baowu to change from "boss" to "powerful". After the project is put into production, it will become the magnesium alloy industry base with the largest scale, the most advanced technology and the most complete industrial chain in the world.

Zhu Haodong, mayor of Chizhou, said in his speech that the Baomeng project is a concrete action to deepen the implementation of the framework agreement on strategic cooperation between the Anhui provincial government and China's Baowu, and to work together to create a world-class demonstration base for new magnesium-based materials and lightweight applications. The landing of the project will drive the agglomeration of downstream magnesium alloy deep processing and lightweight application industries, and support Chizhou to build a "world magnesium capital" with industrial core competitiveness. at the same time, it is of great significance to promote Anhui to build a national new materials industry development highland and cooperate with the Yangtze River Delta to create a world-class new materials industry cluster.

Baosteel said that the Baosteel project is the key layout for Baosteel to build a magnesium industry chain and create a "China magnesium industry". In the future, Baosteel Metal will continue to cooperate sincerely with Yunhai Metals and Qingyang Construction Investment, work together with Anhui Bao magnesium team to build the project into a green and intelligent global leading innovation base for magnesium alloy application new materials, build an all-magnesium industry chain from ore mining to magnesium alloy production, manufacturing and deep processing and application, effectively drive the development of downstream magnesium alloy deep processing enterprises, and strive to form hundreds of billions of new industrial clusters in the region. Contribute to the high-quality development of local economy and national high-end manufacturing industry.

Ding Wenjiang, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said in his speech that the charm of "magnesium" is endless, magnesium materials are of strategic significance to the country, and magnesium-based lightweight materials are inseparable from aerospace and other fields. For the magnesium industry, the Bao magnesium project is a very important project, and the whole magnesium industry is looking forward to it. The start of the project will have a positive effect on the raw material market of the magnesium industry. I believe that the construction of the project will significantly benefit the entire magnesium industry, and look forward to the resplendence of China's magnesium industry in Qingyang! It is believed that China's dream of "magnesium" will certainly come true, and this will certainly contribute to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

In his speech, Hou Angui pointed out that the smooth start of the Baomeng project is mainly due to the correct leadership and strong support of the Anhui provincial party committee and provincial government, and the sincere cooperation of Chizhou City, Qingyang County, Yunhai Metal and China Baowu. Benefit from the efficient promotion of the project team. As an important part of advanced materials, Baowu of China has great confidence in the great potential of magnesium industry. Baomagi project is also one of the largest investment projects of Baowu in non-steel field. It is hoped that the project team will give full play to the spirit of hard work, make every effort to build the project well, strive to be put into production and put into operation as soon as possible, achieve production and efficiency as soon as possible, and build the project into a model of green development and intelligent manufacturing of new materials. Qingyang is also another name for spring. I sincerely hope that the Bao-mg project will take root and thrive in the spring, build a lightweight metal ecosystem with the Bao-mg project as the core, and become a new important industry in Anhui Province and Baowu, China as soon as possible. lead the high-quality development of magnesium metal industry; It is also expected that the Anhui Provincial Party Committee, the provincial government and the governments at all levels of Anhui Province will continue to support the business development of China's Baowu in Anhui, including Anhui Baomeng, and jointly write a new chapter in the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta.
