The 8th集中 study session of the Party Committee’s Theory Study Center Group of Xiangyu Salt & Chemical in 2021.

　　On the afternoon of August 24, the 8th集中 study session of the Party Committee’s Theory Learning Center Group of Xiangyu Salt & Chemical was held in the company’s conference room on the third floor. The meeting was chaired by Wei Min, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the Board, and all members of the Party Committee attended the session.

　　At the meeting, Comrade Wei Min led the participants in revisiting the "Spirit of the National Conference on Party Building in State-Owned Enterprises." Comrade Yuan Rutao, Deputy Secretary of the company’s Party Committee and General Manager, led the study of the "July 30th Meeting of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, which analyzed and studied the current economic situation and economic work." Comrade Yang Fubo, a member of the company’s Party Committee, Deputy General Manager, and Chairman of the Trade Union, led the study of the "Regulations on the Party Emblem and Party Flag of the Communist Party of China." Comrade Zhu Haibin, a member of the company’s Party Committee and Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, led the study of the disciplinary inspection document titled "[Case-Based Warning]: A Life Trapped by Personal Favors and Face." In light of the content discussed at this meeting, Yuan Rutao and Chen Chunping delivered keynote speeches, each focusing on their respective areas of responsibility.

　　The meeting pointed out that Xiangyu Salt & Chemical is currently at a critical stage of being integrated into a listed company. Product prices, such as those for soda ash, have reached historic highs, and the company’s profitability is at its best ever. Faced with this favorable situation, Xiangyu Salt & Chemical must prioritize “stability” above all else—ensuring stable safety, stable production, and stable employee morale—to maintain its strong growth momentum. As a state-owned enterprise, Xiangyu Salt & Chemical must always keep in mind its original mission: “to ensure the preservation and appreciation of state-owned assets and to steadily increase employees’ incomes.” The Party committee leadership team of the company must demonstrate loyalty to the Party, courage in innovation, effective management skills, proactive efforts to revitalize the enterprise, and integrity and廉洁 conduct.

　　The meeting emphasized that, as key leaders of the company, it is essential to enhance three types of management capabilities: first, learn to “play chess”—thinking one step ahead and improving foresight. For instance, equipment selection and replacement should be closely coordinated with technological upgrades; second, learn to “play Go”—understanding that the corners are golden, the edges silver, and the center grassy—being adept at identifying and addressing the primary contradictions at different stages. Currently, for example, our main task is to pursue excellence while maintaining stability, and safe production remains our top priority; third, learn to “play the piano”—using all ten fingers to play the piano—to enhance overall coordination and integration. For instance, deputy general managers in charge of various areas should break down the boundaries of their assigned responsibilities, both dividing tasks and collaborating effectively, and working together around the central objectives to create synergistic momentum. Finally, the meeting called on company management personnel to implement the “three distinctions,” encouraging them to take responsibility and act boldly while staying within the red lines, not crossing the bottom line, and avoiding high-risk zones, thereby consciously strengthening their ideological defenses against corruption and degeneration.
