Ding Shanhua, chairman of the Group, warmly welcomed all the leaders and guests. He was very grateful to everyone for coming and together with Shangshang to witness this important moment, and reviewed Shangshang’s journey of 50 years of ups and downs in the entrepreneurial report. He said Shangshang's past 50 years is extraordinary. From 1967 onwards, after Liyang Grinding Wheel Factory, Liyang Wire Factory, Liyang Cable Factory, and in 1998 officially changed its name to the Jiangsu Shangshang Group Co.,Ltd, and restructured in 2001, till now, Shangshang stick to the main industry and always focus on cables.

It is precisely because of the dedication to make cables that the enterprise has developed steadily along the way. After restructuring, Shangshang clearly specified the development idea of “quality precision, professional expertise, product specialization, market Internationalization” and the enterprises began to enter the fast lane of development. “quality precision” is to produce fine and quality products; “professional expertise” is specialized production; “product specialization” is developing the special cables and high-end cables; “market Internationalization “ is participating in international competition and connects with the world. In the 10 years after the restructuring, Shangshang has grown from less than 1 billion in 2001 to 10 billion in 2011.

This year is the 50th year since the establishment of the factory, Ding Shanhua said that the company's sales are expected to increase by 2.5 billion yuan to 15 billion yuan on the basis of the previous year, which not only draws a successful ending for the 50 years, but also contributes to the 19th National Congress of the Party a big gift

Ding Shanhua emphasized that the development in the past 50 years cannot be separated from technological transformation, and technological innovation has left an indelible stroke in the history of Shanghai's development. From the old factory area in the early days, to the current southern factory area, and then to the north factory area and the west factory area, the factory areas are larger than one, and the equipment is more advanced than the other. Especially after the restructuring, the large-scale transformation of the enterprise has been round after round, almost never stopped. The medium-voltage, low-voltage, special, and ultra-high-voltage workshops have been completed and put into production successively. In the past two years, a new medium-voltage, special control cables have been built, and a new technical center of 6,000 square meters has been built.

Until now, the Shangshang's technological transformation is still continuing. At the beginning of this year, nearly 30,000 square meters of new energy projects were under construction. “I always believe that transformation is not not simply to expand capacity, but to have the production capacity of high-end products, to meet the needs of high-end users and the ultimate goal is to better serve users”. Ding shanhua said that the Shangshang has never deliberately sought to pursue scale. To this day, it is entirely the result of the market pull and the result of customer trust.

What impressed Ding shanhua most is the West factory’s technical transformation, which was the largest transformation since the establishment of the Shangshang. At that time, Shangshang plans to invest 2.3 billion Yuan in three phases of construction, the first phase project was not over yet, the 2009 financial crisis came, By the way, the second phase project continued to withstand the storm. At that time, many people are not optimistic and they also pinched a sweat for Shangshang, but it turned out that after experiencing thrills, they were pleasantly surprised. The transformation against the trend has put Shangshang's products on a new level. At present, Shangshang has a full range of power cables from 220V to 500,000V and various special cables. Through technological transformation, Shangshang gradually formed specialized and large-scale production. The largest special cable production base in Asia has been built, and it has become the largest single cable manufacturing enterprise in the world

In the past 50 years, in order to continuously meet customer needs, Shangshang insists on technological innovation. While making refined conventional products, we continue to develop new products with high scientific and technological content that are difficult for the market and do not do for others, and can replace imports and expand exports. Now, Shangshang products have covered many fields such as power transmission and distribution, new energy, rail transportation, marine engineering, national defense construction, etc., and are widely used in key national projects such as Beijing Capital International Airport, Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway, etc. The most worth mentioning is nuclear cables The second-generation and second-generation half nuclear cables previously developed by Shangshang have filled the domestic gap, and the subsequently developed third-generation AP1000 nuclear power cable has filled the gap in the world.

Ding Shanhua said that in the next 50 years, the Admiral will redouble his efforts with talents, management, technology, equipment and strength, reprocessing the craftsmanship and craftsmanship to make the products well and make the products excellent. At the same time, we continue to develop high-end products, gradually integrate into the Internet+, and gradually realize intelligent manufacturing to connect with the world. In the end, we must achieve the grand goal of "strong enterprise, rich employees", "century-old enterprise, industry champion, becoming the leader of the global cable industry".
