The vice president of the China Iron and Steel Industry Association introduced that in 2016, with the slowdown of economic growth, the demand is weakening, and the steel supply is more and more obvious than the demand, and the production is on a downward trend; The industry benefits are improving, and the steel industry chain is showing signs of balanced development; Iron and steel enterprises are accelerating the implementation of structural adjustment and transformation and upgrading, which has laid the foundation for the healthy development of China's steel industry in the future.
China's economy has entered a deep adjustment, and steel and coal must adapt to new conditions and new changes, achieve a new balance in a new environment and on a new platform, and continue to maintain a healthy and stable state of development at an appropriate speed, in an appropriate way, with higher efficiency and better quality. Faced with the same external environment, no party in the steel industry chain can be "isolated" for a long time, and industrial chain cooperation is an inevitable trend. Therefore, the stakeholders of the steel industry should put aside short-term interests, start from the height of the industry chain construction, and upstream and downstream enterprises to form a real interest sharing, risk sharing long-term stable cooperative relationship.
