Steel industry sales profit margin of only 0.9%, still in the lowest level in the industrial sector. Last year, the lowest profit when the steel, a ton of steel is only 0.43 yuan, selling a ton of steel is not as good as selling an ice cream popsicles. Where is the future of China's steel industry? 2015 "along the way" and other policies to implement, so that the steel industry ushered in the policy year.

2015 "along the way" and other policies, and finally let the steel industry usher in policy years.
status quo
Tons of steel profits less than a popsicle production capacity into a "culprit"
Steel industry sales profit margin of only 0.9%, still in the lowest level in the industrial sector. Recently, the State Council Counselor special researcher Yao Jingyuan analysis, the main reason is the excess capacity.
Yao Jingyuan said that last year when the lowest profits of steel, a ton of steel is only 0.43 yuan, selling a ton of steel is not as good as selling an ice cream popsicles. Why is the overcapacity? Is it too much in the past to rely on investment to stimulate the economy, but also the old way of growth in the past accumulated problems.

Is it too much in the past To rely on investment to stimulate the economy, but also the old way of growth in the past cumulative problems.
To solve and change is not overnight, on the one hand, a large number of state-owned iron and steel enterprises burden is heavy, the reform is not in place, corporate social and historical issues remain prominent; the other hand, the fair competitive market environment has not yet formed, such as environmental law enforcement standards Different scales, backward companies can not be eliminated.
Even the enterprise "breathless" is the "financial difficulties, financing expensive" under the background of the heavy financial burden. Although the State Council last year to solve the real economic financing difficult to take many measures, but the financial constraints, financing problems have not been alleviated in 2014, Steel Association members of iron and steel enterprises bank loans grew 0.28%, but financial costs increased by 20.58% The
"In large part because of the increase in lending rates, especially some banks have adopted a 'one size fits all' approach, constantly lending, credit, so that corporate funds are very tight, some companies even face operational risks." Zhu Jiemin said without fear.
Way out
Improve efficiency to improve new technologies, product development
Pessimistic voice that, bearing a huge excess capacity, China's steel industry has not see the future. On the other hand, people also see that overseas high-end steel products are still "volume and price increases" to continue to enter China: 2014 China's total imports of steel increased by 2.5%; import prices rose 2.5% China's average export price of steel fell by 11.5%.
"The next five years to 10 years, low-end product demand to reduce the demand for high-end products increased." Shagang Group Chairman Shen Wenrong to the construction industry, for example, with the standard to improve energy conservation measures to promote more and more Construction will turn to steel, ordinary rebar demand will decline, and high-strength sheet demand will increase.
It is clear that the steel industry in order to have the future, it must be market demand-oriented, in the new technology, new product development breakthrough; another must strive to improve efficiency, to Shagang Group, for example, Shen Wenrong said that the current per capita Steel production capacity of nearly 1,000 tons, the level of labor productivity in the domestic first square array, but compared with the international advanced level there is no small gap.
Yao Jingyuan also said that for backward production capacity, we have to make it determined to eliminate it, iron and steel enterprises to improve their own innovation capacity, reduce costs and improve the level of technology and equipment. To solve the difficulties of the steel industry, to be mentally prepared, not a short period of time will be able to solve.
Looking ahead
Steel industry ushered in the policy year "along the way" to promote steel to go out
According to the Ministry of Industry and information released in 2015 the relevant departments will focus on creating a fair competitive market environment, to promote the serious excess capacity conflict to resolve, to promote the integration of two deep, enhance competitiveness and efficiency, develop a series of policies.
Regulate the management of the steel industry. Has been announced on the basis of 305 standard enterprises, the Ministry of Industry this year will be revised "steel industry standard conditions" to strengthen energy conservation and environmental standards and other constraints; supporting the introduction of "iron and steel industry standard enterprise management approach", has announced the norms of enterprises to carry out dynamic management The At the same time, the construction of standardized enterprise information comprehensive database, to provide information support for standardized management.
Promote the integration of the steel industry. This year, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Finance will focus on promoting the integration of the steel industry, to carry out demonstration and application of intelligent factories to promote and revise a number of two fusion standards to support the large-scale development of the large-scale integration of raw materials industry. Iron and steel enterprises own e-commerce platform to the industry open platform transformation, to promote the car plate, shipbuilding and other personalized orders processing and distribution.
Formulate industry planning guidance. This year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will formulate the "Action Plan for the Transformation and Development of the Iron and Steel Industry" to further promote the implementation of the relevant supporting policies and measures. At the same time, it will release the "Medium and Long-term Development Plan of the Iron Ore Industry" (2010) in conjunction with the compilation of the "China Manufacturing Power 2025 Planning and Development Program" -2025) "to guide China's iron ore industry sustained and healthy development.
With the new environmental protection law to force the left to withdraw from the market. It is understood that the Ministry of Industry and the new environmental law will be implemented as an opportunity, in conjunction with the relevant departments to strengthen the matter after the supervision, but forced to withdraw from the market left. This year the Ministry of Industry will jointly quality inspection, industry and commerce, development and other departments to carry out special action against the strip of steel, to maintain fair competition in the market environment.
Promote upstream and downstream industry collaboration. Continue to promote high-strength steel, high-performance electrical steel, marine and marine steel to promote the use of standards to promote the revision, to promote the processing and distribution of marine steel. To promote the domestic high-end wear-resistant steel and other steel products to promote the process of policy barriers and market bottlenecks encountered.
The relevant departments of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Industry and China Iron and Steel Industry Association also met with the national "area along the way" strategy to study the steel industry "going out" problem.
It is understood that the steel industry standard management and to resolve excess capacity initial results in 2014, corporate earnings improved significantly, the key statistics of iron and steel enterprises in 2014 to achieve profits and taxes 109.1 billion yuan, up 12.2%; profit and loss after the profit of 30.4 billion yuan, an increase of 40.4% The
