On the morning of February 20, Li Mao, Party Secretary and Chairman of China Pingmei Shenma Group, visited in succession the Aramid Technology Development Company, Shenma Yili (Henan) Fiber Co., Ltd., and Adian Company. He extended greetings and condolences to the cadres and employees who had remained on duty during the Spring Festival holiday, inspected the progress of the group’s key innovation projects, and encouraged everyone to forge ahead with the spirit of the dragon horse—bold and resolute—and strictly implement the duty roster system during the holiday period. He also urged them to ensure high-quality management throughout the entire lifecycle of these key innovation projects, thereby injecting strong momentum into the group’s efforts to become a world-class enterprise.

Li Benbin, Deputy General Manager of China Pingmei Shenma Group, joined the research and慰问 visit.

“Happy New Year, everyone!” “You’ve worked hard on duty during the Spring Festival!” Li Mao and his delegation went deep into enterprise production workshops and construction sites, warmly shaking hands with employees who remained at their posts and extending their best wishes for the New Year. They took a keen interest in learning about employees’ work arrangements during the Spring Festival and their daily life support measures, and urged company leaders to earnestly care for the well-being of employees during the holiday period and implement all necessary logistical support measures. This way, employees staying at their posts could feel the warmth and care from the organization, continuously enhancing their sense of fulfillment, happiness, and security.

During the research visit, Li Mao listened carefully to reports on the progress of key innovation projects, gaining a detailed understanding of technological R&D, process optimization, equipment commissioning, and market prospects for the products. He engaged in in-depth discussions with relevant officials about critical issues encountered during project implementation. He emphasized that the Spring Festival holiday is a special period for safe production and also a crucial phase for building momentum and overcoming challenges in project construction. It is essential to always prioritize safety production, strictly enforce the duty roster system during the holiday, strengthen on-site management and hazard identification, refine safety precautions, and firmly uphold the red lines and bottom lines for safe production, ensuring stable and orderly production and operations as well as uninterrupted progress in innovation projects during the holiday period.

Li Mao pointed out that technological innovation is the core driving force behind the group’s high-quality development, and key innovation projects serve as crucial platforms for cultivating our core competitiveness. We must deeply study and implement General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important remarks on scientific and technological innovation, firmly shoulder the responsibility and mission of achieving self-reliance and strength in science and technology, and firmly grasp the “seven-character guideline” for the group’s project construction. We should make full use of the group’s institutional framework—represented by the “five special provisions”—as well as the incentive system that links salaries to research topics and bonuses to achievements. We must focus on breakthroughs in key technologies and the commercialization of research outcomes, continuously deepen collaborative innovation among industry, academia, and research institutions, and make concerted efforts to overcome more “bottleneck” technological challenges, thereby promoting the industrialization of our products with high quality. We must integrate the concept of innovation throughout the entire lifecycle of each project, optimize processes, and target our efforts precisely, transforming innovative results into real productive forces, constantly enhancing product added value and market competitiveness, and laying a solid innovation foundation for the group’s goal of becoming a world-class energy and functional materials enterprise with international competitiveness and for building a modern industrial system.

Li Mao also put forward requirements regarding specific tasks.
