High end address

Sun Ruizhe, President of China Textile Industry Federation

He pointed out that

In 2017, the mainland exported 1 billion 740 million US dollars of textiles and clothing to Taiwan, an increase of 7.7% over the same period last year, and imports of textiles and garments from Taiwan for us $2 billion 320 million.

The mainland's export to Taiwan was dominated by clothing, and its share increased from 53.3% in 2011 to 61.9% in 2017. Imports from Taiwan accounted for most of the textiles and accounted for over 97% of imports.

The cross-strait industries have formed strong structural complementarity in the development.

As an important livelihood industry, the textile industry has created a large number of social wealth and jobs for both sides of the Strait while meeting the needs of clothing consumption and production. It has made important contributions to the development of cross-strait economy and the well-being of the people.

The further advancement of informatization, service and creativity has led to greater room for industrial cooperation.

Relying on common vision and advantages, enterprises across the Straits are becoming the core force to support the smooth operation of the world textile industry system.

Sun Ruizhe pointed out that the peaceful development of both sides of the Strait is the fundamental interest of the Chinese nation.

Although there are twists and turns on the way forward, the trend of history is irreversible.

At present, cross straits relations are facing certain challenges. The mechanism of cross-strait ties, communication and consultation needs to be improved. The process of institutionalization of economic cooperation needs to be further promoted, and exchanges and cooperation between industries need to be strengthened.

At present, mainland reform has reached a new historical juncture.

The main contradiction of society has been pformed into the contradiction between the growing needs of people's life and the unbalanced development.

Driven by the new round of industrial revolution and technological revolution, the development pattern of the world textile industry is also undergoing profound adjustment. The original ecosystem is fluctuating and deconstructing, and the instability and uncertainty of development are significantly enhanced.

In the new environment, how to comply with the requirements of the times, grasp the development opportunities and achieve common prosperity is a common topic facing the textile enterprises across the Taiwan Strait.

The compatriots on both sides of the Straits are linked by blood and culture, and the common cultural foundation is an important spiritual link for the coordinated development and common prosperity of the industry.

President Xi Jinping pointed out: "cultural self-confidence is a more fundamental, deeper and more lasting force in the development of a country or a nation."

Sun Ruizhe believes that the textile industry should integrate the excellent traditional culture of "benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith" into the industrial cooperation between the two sides of the Straits, better build industrial values, form industry consensus, unite the forces of both sides, and promote the high quality development of the textile industry, that is, serving the people's livelihood is to be benevolent and the world fit for righteousness and compliance.

At present, the mainland textile industry has entered a new stage of high quality development. "Technology, fashion and green" is becoming a new label for the industry.

To build a strong textile country and help the great rejuvenation of the nation requires the joint efforts of enterprises across the Straits.

In this regard, Sun Ruizhe put forward three initiatives:

Two, culture is the soil and the industry value is thicker.

The three is to promote sustainable development by taking responsibility as the cornerstone.

It points out that 2018 is a turning point in the global economy, and that the export situation of bulk commodities is improving, and that economic growth will continue in recent years.

But the world bank also suggested that the rise of protectionism in the United States, intensified trade frictions and geopolitical tensions posed a risk to the global economy in 2018.

The sustained and rapid growth of China's economy has become a global focus and an important kinetic energy for global economic development.

China is already the world's largest exporter and the second largest economy after the US.

Mainland China is an important import and export market for textiles in Taiwan. The competition and cooperation between the two sides of the textile industry are very delicate and close.

At the seminar, we believe that in the atmosphere of mutual efforts, mutual help and frank exchanges, we will be able to complement each other and seek common prosperity in the development of cross-strait textile industry and create a win-win situation in the global layout.

Address the meeting.

He said that Jining is known as "the land of Confucius and Mencius, and the capital of the canal". It is an important birthplace of Chinese civilization and the birthplace of Confucian culture.

Jining enjoys superior location, well-developed pportation, abundant resources and wide market radiation.

The textile industry is the dominant traditional industry in Jining, and it is also one of the ten key industries in the pformation of new and old energy.

Over the years, the Jining textile industry, represented by Ruyi holding group, has achieved rapid development and high quality development based on the high-end, strengthening innovation, making the best efforts and taking the initiative.

This conference, held in Jining, is of great significance for Jining to better accept the guidance of the association, deepen cross-strait cooperation, learn from advanced experience and accelerate the pformation and development.

It is pointed out that this year is the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up. As the leader of reform and opening up, China's textile industry will continue to promote technological innovation, strengthen technological pformation, expand international cooperation, and enhance its comprehensive strength and international influence.

In 2017, the main business revenue of textile enterprises above the mainland scale was 6 trillion and 900 billion yuan, accounting for 6% of the manufacturing industry, and textile and garment exports accounted for 274 billion 500 million US dollars, accounting for 12% of the total exports of goods, accounting for more than 35% of global exports.

At present, the rapid development of new technologies, represented by information technology, Internet, big data and artificial intelligence, has promoted the profound pformation of manufacturing mode of production, industrial format and consumption mode. Intellectualization, greening and service-oriented become the main direction of the pformation and development of manufacturing industry.

Cao Xuejun pointed out that changing the way of development and achieving high quality development will be a long-term and arduous task.

We should pay more attention to all-round innovation, improve management efficiency, improve the level of technology and equipment, develop new products and cultivate new business models.

We should pay more attention to consumption demand, and restructure the industrial supply chain with the center of consumption demand, return to the essence of manufacturing, take products as the source, and attach importance to variety, quality and brand.

To pay more attention to the application of information technology, intelligent manufacturing is becoming a new kinetic energy for textile pformation and development.

We should pay more attention to win-win cooperation, deepen the concept of opening and sharing, and build an industrial ecosystem with integrity, cooperation, cooperation and win win.

At present, the textile industry is in a critical period of pformation and upgrading. Cao Xuejun hopes that the textile industry across the Taiwan Strait will join hands to strengthen complementary advantages and exchanges and cooperation, promote innovation in the textile sector and develop together in a win-win situation.

keynote speech

In the keynote speech,

The present situation and future prospects of cross-strait textile industry are respectively introduced.

First of all, the word "market power, stability and quality" is used to summarize the current development of the mainland's textile industry, that is, the domestic demand market is steady and the growth rate is gradually accelerating. The export market is warming up, and the growth rate has stabilized steadily. The production is stable and slowing down, the supply structure is optimized, the efficiency is basically stable, the operation quality is improved, the investment power is optimized, and the pformation effect is obvious.

At present, China's textile industry is facing a new historical position, that is, the pformation of the major social contradictions, the pformation of the national economy from the high-speed growth stage to the high quality development stage, the victory of building a well-off society in an all-round way, and the opening up of a new socialist modernization country, and the establishment of a world textile power by 2020.

Under such circumstances, the positioning of China's textile industry has also been pformed into an innovation driven technology industry, a culture led fashion industry, and a responsible green industry.

Sun Huaibin introduced the development direction of the mainland's textile industry in the future.

In recent years, the scale of textiles and clothing exported by the mainland to Taiwan has increased slightly, and the scale of imports of textiles and garments from Taiwan has gradually declined.

In 2017, the mainland exported $1 billion 740 million of textiles and clothing to Taiwan, an increase of 7.7% over the same period last year, and imports of textiles and garments from Taiwan amounted to US $2 billion 320 million, which was basically the same as last year. The trade deficit narrowed by US $1 billion 310 million.

In view of the prospects for cooperation between the two sides of the textile industry, sun Huaibin puts forward three suggestions:

The two is to focus on new strategic directions and explore new areas of cooperation.

In the past 20 years, the direct output value of Taiwan's textile and garment industry has shown a gradual downward trend. In the past 20 years, the direct output value has decreased by 246 billion 900 million (NT $39.7%), but the output value derived from overseas investment is growing every year on average.

Taiwan textile industry is a highly export-oriented industry with an estimated value of export value. The dependence on exports increased from 68% in 1995 to 83% in 2001. Thereafter, it was between 76% and 84%.

Highly export-oriented indicates that the textile industry is a high tariff product in the major consumer markets, which is greatly influenced by the international market prosperity and competition.

The middle and upper reaches of Taiwan's textile industry are the main force. The downstream enterprises need to be abundant in labor force and spread abroad, and play a dynamic role in the development of the middle reaches of the industry.

The number and number of employees employed in Taiwan textile and garment factories decreased year by year, but the per capita output value showed a stable trend.

At present, the stagnation of investment in Taiwan's textile and garment industry is mainly due to the shortage of labor force, while foreign labor supplement is still lacking.

In addition, the average monthly salary of Taiwan textile industry has increased by 22.8% in 20 years and 42.6% in apparel industry.

Huang Weiji also introduced the risks and opportunities facing the textile industry in Taiwan, and pointed out the future development direction:

Two is to strengthen innovation research and development and design.

Opportunities and challenges facing the cross straits textile industry in the new era -- new retail, new markets and new changes

Qiu Yafu, chairman of the board of directors of Ruyi holding group

Introduction, in the years of development, Ruyi has undergone a series of changes, but the most satisfying place for him is that all the staff members of the company are active in thinking, which has greatly supported the development of enterprises.

At the same time, enterprise leaders must constantly improve themselves, effectively and quickly guide their staff, so that they can have a better development.

In the light of the changes in the new market, Dai Hongyi believed that we should actively develop new markets and approach the consumer market.

And to be close to the market, SMEs must expand their scale, enhance their international capabilities, and make diversified and deep-rooted processed products in order to adapt to the new situation.

Yang Weihan, general manager of Nan Wei Industrial Limited by Share Ltd, briefed the participants on the basis of his own experience. By analyzing the younger generation of consumers, it was found that there is a new consumer who "sees, buys, can not see, do not buy", so under such a new change, the sale should be highly pparent.

In addition, in the current short term and e-commerce era, enterprises can adapt themselves to this new era in addition to products and logistics.

Zhu Yong, President of Orient International (Group) Co., Ltd., based on the development process of the group's electricity supplier development, automotive interior decoration industry and international layout, pointed out that we should constantly adjust ourselves to new changes, new markets and new retail businesses.
