"To enter a new era and adapt to, integrate into and serve the national strategy is the great politics, great responsibility and great responsibility of every enterprise. Only by serving the national strategy, can an enterprise have a large market and long-term development." Xu Zheng, a deputy to the National People's Congress and chairman of Shanghai Construction Engineering Group, said in an exclusive interview with China Securities News recently that Shanghai Construction Engineering Group's business innovation, management innovation, service innovation, technological innovation, etc. are all centered on the overall situation of integrating into and serving the national strategy, constantly improving their service capabilities and promoting the expansion of the development space of enterprises.
In 2019, Shanghai Construction Engineering Group achieved a revenue of 205.497 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 20.49%; The net profit attributable to shareholders of the listed company was 3.93 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 41.38%. The growth rate of net profit was 5.8 percentage points higher than the previous performance report of the company, and the profit in 2019 exceeded market expectations.
Serve the national strategy and accelerate business transformation
Xu Zheng believes that the value of business innovation depends on national and market demands, as well as the capabilities of the enterprise itself. Entering the 13th Five Year Plan period, Shanghai Construction Engineering Group deeply implements the five development concepts and is committed to creating a development vision of "widely acclaimed building full life cycle service provider". While continuously strengthening, optimizing and expanding the traditional five business groups, it aims to achieve national strategies for ecological civilization construction such as "harmonious coexistence between man and nature", "promoting green development" and "building a beautiful China", vigorously developing five emerging industries including "urban renewal, water conservancy and water management, environmental engineering, digital industrial construction, and building services".
In 2020, China will improve the effectiveness of ecological environment governance. Highlight the rule of law, scientific and precise pollution control. Deepen the tackling of air pollution control in key areas. Strengthen the construction of sewage and garbage disposal facilities. Strengthen the energy conservation and environmental protection industry. Implement major projects for the protection and restoration of important ecosystems, and promote the construction of ecological civilization. Xu Zheng stated that this year's requirements for improving the effectiveness of ecological environment governance are the fastest-growing sector of Shanghai Construction Engineering in recent years, and also an important driving force for serving the national strategy in the future, with great development potential.
In fact, as the backbone of the "national team" of environmental engineering, Shanghai Construction Engineering Co., Ltd. takes the strategic height of improving the entire industry chain and enhancing core capabilities, and regards water conservancy and environmental engineering as important emerging business expansion areas. It continues to make efforts in green industries such as sewage and sludge treatment, comprehensive environmental management, soil remediation, solid waste disposal, sponge cities, comprehensive pipe corridors, and landscape architecture. In 2019, there were 24 billion yuan worth of contracts under construction for environmental engineering business alone. Recently, the first large-scale fixed waste soil resource utilization plant designed and built by Shanghai Construction Engineering Group has been put into operation in the southern new city of Nanjing. The plant "turns waste into treasure" by processing waste soil in batches and using it as road building materials for municipal road construction in the area. It processes 10000 tons of waste soil per day and plans to process about 2.2 million cubic meters of waste soil in the southern new city area, with good economic, social and environmental benefits.
From ecological restoration projects such as the post World Expo beach, Chongming Dongtan, and Xinjiangwan City ecological conservation, to the restoration of Shanghai Taopu 603 polluted land, Hainan Changhua lead-zinc mine environmental governance demonstration, Shanxi Changzhi Zhangze Lake east bank ecological restoration and protection comprehensive management, West Lake University ecological water system construction, and Yangtze River Delta roadshow center wetland restoration, Shanghai Construction Engineering Group has won the reputation of being a leader in environmental engineering full life cycle service providers with its "hard power".
Seriously practicing the concept of 'green mountains and clear waters are as valuable as mountains of gold and silver', especially in ecological environment governance and construction, we must continuously leverage our advantages in integrated investment, design, and construction services, strengthen investment in water environment, soil governance, river governance, solid waste treatment, and sponge cities, and help build a 'Beautiful China', "said Xu Zheng.
