From the 22nd to the 23rd, Governor Wang Hao came to Fenghua District and Ninghai County of Ningbo City to visit enterprises and investigate the stable growth and major industrial projects. He emphasized that to focus on projects and investment is to focus on development and the future. All local governments and departments must fully implement the important instructions of General Secretary Xi Jinping on “epidemic prevention, economic stabilization, and safe production”, and the spirit of the government meeting on economic situation, to resolutely shoulder the responsibilities and promote steady economic progress and quality. He urged them to further stimulate the spirit of entrepreneurship in the new era, understand the difficulties and needs of enterprises, increase the efforts to help enterprises, and continuously enhance the driving force, vitality and innovation of economic development.

Wang Hao visited many manufacturing enterprises for investigation such as Ruiling New Energy Technology, AirTAC Automation Industry, Microwell Mobile Phone, Oriental Risheng New Energy, Ninghai No.1 Injection Mold, and Founder Auto Mould. Whenever he came to a company, he would inquire about this year’s production and operation, especially in recent months, the specific difficulties they have encountered, and the implementation of favorable policies for enterprises. Some companies told him that in spite of the current difficulties, the companies are united, and by fighting for technology, quality, service, and delivery time in the fierce market competition, they have obtained orders and increased corporate revenue. Other companies said that although exchange rate fluctuations have an impact on the export market, they will further increase their research and development efforts to occupy a more favorable position in the market.

Wang Hao was very pleased to see the enterprise employees highly motivated. He said that in the face of difficulties, enterprises must have an indomitable spirit, put technological innovation in a prominent position, and promote enterprise transformation and upgrading with high-quality investment and project construction, so as to win development through hard work. Wang Hao pointed out that, while enterprises create wealth, the government creates the favorable environment for development. We must attach great importance to the impact of domestic and foreign environmental changes on the enterprise, he said. With a clear head and the awareness of urgency, we must be fully prepared for the future. Government departments should further improve the quality of policy implementation, help enterprises solve practical problems such as energy security, logistics security, financing cost reduction, etc., and take new measures to promote production expansion and improve efficiency.

During his investigation, Wang Hao emphasized that, as this is the year of the 20th CPC National Congress, it is very important to maintain a stable and healthy economic environment. We must focus on the construction of major projects, focus on key areas in light of local conditions, and make good use of special bonds and policy and development financial instruments. We must strengthen the tracking and scheduling of key industries, key enterprises and major projects, and implement more precise and refined policies, to vigorously promote the recovery of the industry. At the same time, we must strictly prevent and control the epidemic, build a solid line of defense against “foreign importation”, and provide guarantees for stable economic progress and quality improvement.
