Concrete and Cement-based Products are the largest and most important construction engineering materials, serving construction, water conservancy, highways, railways, bridges, port engineering, mining and other industries. The industrial scale ranks first among 32 building materials industries. In the first three quarters of 2019, China's concrete and cement-based products industry enterprises above designated size achieved main business revenue of 1.13 trillion yuan (excluding those included in the construction industry), a year-on-year increase of 24.6%; total profits were 53.325 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase 32.09%, a complete industrial system of concrete and cement-based products with Chinese characteristics has been formed. China's concrete and cement-based products materials and engineering technology support the innovation and development of major national engineering construction. Many materials and engineering technology innovations have reached the international advanced level and have become an integral part of the "built in China" world brand.

Distinguished guests attended convention including Zhang Renwei, Former Director of the National Building Materials Bureau; Li Mingzhi, Director of the Economic Office of the Finance and Economic Committee of the NPC; Huang Zhengxue, Director of the National Development and Reform Commission Institute of Land Development and Regional Economics; Wang Bing, Chairman of BNBM Building Materials Co., Ltd.; Zhou Jian, Director of the Institute of Electronics, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology / National Industrial Information Security Development Research Center System Institute, Secretary General of the Integration of Service Alliance; Nie Changlan, Honorary President of Jiangsu Building Materials Industry Association；Xue Jun，Director of Building Materials Division, Beijing Municipal Commission of Housing and Urban-Rural Development，etc. CCPA higher officials attending the opening ceremony were President Wu Wengui, Executive President Xu Yongmo, Zhang Shukai and Lu Zuliang, former presidents of China Concrete and Cement-based Products Association; Xu Jingxin, former vice president and founder of Jianhua Building Materials Group; Wei Zelin, former vice president and founder of Guangdong Sanhe Building Materials Group; former vice president, founder of Ningbo Zhedong Building Materials Group Qiu Xingzhu, former vice chairman and chairman of Jianhua Building Materials Group Wang Gang; Deputy President Yao Yan, Ji Youhong, Sun Jiancheng, Tian Yubo, Qiu Fenglei, Wang Guohua, Li Wei, Mei Xiangfu, Ding Yuehua, Yang Hanbing, Shao Jun, Yao Yuanjun, Cui Qi, Han Xianfu, Xu Luoyi, Fu Bo and Tan Zhixiong. Presidents and general secretary from local associations, experts in related sectors, and representatives from leading enterprises also attended the convention. The conference was hosted by Zeng Qingdong, Secretary General of China Concrete and Cement-based Products Association.

In his speech for the conference, President Wu Wengui said that holding the annual conference of the concrete and cement products industry at the end of each year and early winter is a long-term fine tradition of the association, and it is also the best window for the society to understand the development of the concrete and cement-based products industry. Through the holding of the conference, it can provide member companies with opportunities for information sharing and communication; it can also provide a platform for studying and judging the industry situation, responding to industry challenges, and discussing and planning. This conference has a rich agenda and substantial content. I believe that if you come to the annual conference site today, you will surely be able to come and return with joy.

As the year 2019 draws to a close, the international situation is changing and destabilizing factors are on the rise. China's macro economy is under pressure and downward, and growth in the real economy is sluggish. The competition between concrete and cement products is more intense under the pressure of homogeneous competition and material rising. At the same time, we also see, with the integration of the beijing-tianjin-hebei region, the Yangtze river economic belt, a large bay area of guangdong, "Belt And Road" major to speed up the implementation of the strategy, the construction of a number of major infrastructure such as high-speed rail and airports has accelerated. With the acceleration of a new round of industrial revolutions such as green smart manufacturing, 5G era, and 3D printing, China's concrete and cement product industry is also facing new development opportunities and entering a new era of development.
