Chapter 107 The Wisdom Consideration of Shanxi's Strategic Adjustment of Pillar Industries

Historical experience shows that the process of financial crisis, considered from a certain perspective, is essentially a process of survival of the fittest and optimization of various market elements. At present, due to the market downturn and operating difficulties, this has created a rare opportunity for us to concentrate on practicing "integration internal skills", re-clarify our thinking, and then adjust our direction.From the perspective of the international environment, the international energy raw material market has shrunk, and the level of income has declined, reducing the resistance and cost of coal resource integration and corporate restructuring.At the same time, it also weakens the enterprise's short-term profit-seeking impulse, which to a certain extent leaves a certain "turnaround space" for coal enterprises to carry out technological transformation and industrial upgrading.

In Shanxi's industrial economic structure, the four major industries of coal, coking, metallurgy, and electric power have always been the "traditional pillar industries" supporting Shanxi's economic development.Therefore, some experts vividly called them the four "Dharma Protectors" of Shanxi's economy.For a long time, they have been the "pioneers" of Shanxi's economic development.However, today, objectively speaking, the contribution of these four "King Kong" to Shanxi's economy is naturally indispensable. Mana" seems to be exhausted.The resulting economic ills have been revealed.From the perspective of Shanxi's overall economy, it seems that the four "Dharma Protectors" seem to be more necessary to "abdicate to the virtuous".

An expert from the Shanxi Provincial Academy of Social Sciences once pointed out that Shanxi's GDP was once a negative number, which is probably the last among all provinces in the country. So why does this happen? The answer is very clear. In the words of experts, it is caused by Shanxi's industrial structure model dominated by the development thinking of "one coal dominates" for a long time. According to data, Shanxi's economy has been highly dependent on the four pillar industries of coal, coke, iron and electricity for many years, and its proportion has accounted for 80% to 90% of Shanxi's total industrial output value. The development model of a single economic structure and the laws of modern economy are obvious. "Less than a pot of urine" itself has obvious fatal flaws.This "deficiency" is firstly manifested in the single pillar industry, and the poor "grafting" and "complementarity" between the various elements of the industrial market.This is fatal to the overall development of a region's macro economy.

In addition, due to the serious homogenization of industrial development, this can easily lead to "inbreeding" in the industrial economic environment. In fact, Shanxi's four pillar industries are not too few, but they are of the same type, which has a very obvious "sensitivity" to the impact of Shanxi's economy.In recent years, Shanxi has begun to focus on promoting safe development, transformational development, and harmonious development, and has chosen the right time to promote the adjustment of the economic structure and the transformation of the development mode.Facts have proved that it has become an inevitable road for Shanxi's future development to look far ahead at the high end of the industry, implement "Shanxi Coal Integration" based on the future, adjust the direction of Shanxi's economic development, get out of the "four pillar industries" thinking, and seek more space. .

To sum up, the merger, reorganization and integration of coal enterprises in Shanxi is imperative. In addition, in this significant "movement", all parties concerned must not only have "awareness of the general trend" and "awareness of the overall situation", but also "awareness of crisis". Our emphasis on "crisis awareness" here requires us to "take action when it is time to act", and we must show the courage of "a strong man breaks his wrist" to help each other and overcome difficulties together. It can be seen that the inevitable way for Shanxi's future development is to get out of the coal industry.Going out to find more space has become the inevitable way for Shanxi's future development.

This also confirms the wisdom consideration of Shanxi's strategic adjustment of pillar industries.
