On the morning of February 29, Lou Dingding, Deputy Secretary of the County Party Committee and County Mayor, led a team to Huangtan Town to conduct an on-site inspection of the local economic performance. He emphasized the need to thoroughly study, deeply understand, and earnestly implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important speeches, instructions, and directives; to regard upholding high-quality development as an unshakable principle in the new era; to rigorously follow the arrangements and requirements set forth at the “First Meeting of the New Year” convened by the provincial, municipal, and county party committees; to maintain a work ethos characterized by bold initiative, vigorous competition, and relentless effort; to take proactive, front‑line action; and to strengthen innovation‑driven development, thereby ensuring a strong start and a promising beginning to the first quarter and making an even greater contribution to the overall development of the county.

At Deli Group, Lou Dingding conducted an on-site visit to the newly completed Corporate Pavilion and Product Center, engaging in in-depth discussions with the group’s leadership on development prospects, R&D investment, market expansion, and other key areas. He gained a thorough understanding of the company’s operations and sought insights into existing challenges as well as suggestions for improvement. He emphasized that the cultural industries hold immense potential, and that Deli Group, as the leading enterprise in our county’s cultural sector and a national high-tech company, should further strengthen its cultural confidence, remain committed to innovation-driven growth, and build on China’s rich traditional culture to creatively develop more flagship products. By expanding into international markets, Deli Group can leverage cultural self-assurance and resilience to propel higher‑quality, sustainable development.

In the various production workshops of Ningbo Huacheng Valve Co., Ltd., automated equipment is neatly arranged, and workers are busy with manufacturing. “After resuming work, are there labor shortages? How’s the order situation this year?” Lou Dingding asked as he walked around, showing keen interest in the company’s operations. He emphasized that technological innovation is the primary driving force behind development, and expressed his hope that Huacheng Valve will further intensify its R&D efforts, continue to deepen its expertise in its field, forge distinctive strengths and competitive advantages through technology, steadily enhance the technological content and competitiveness of its products, and ultimately grow into a category‑leading champion in its industry.

Lou Dingding also visited Ningbo Changhua Copper Products Co., Ltd., where he conducted an on-site inspection of the company’s new and existing processing workshops, expressing his appreciation for the firm’s efforts in recent years to accelerate technological upgrading and industrial transformation. He emphasized that technological innovation is the key to gaining a competitive edge in today’s fiercely contested market, urging the company to remain resilient, strive for progress, and continuously pursue high-end, intelligent, and green development to capture a larger share of the market. Meanwhile, relevant departments were called upon to provide proactive services, meticulously streamline, effectively coordinate, and promptly deliver various business‑friendly policies to ensure their swift and direct implementation.

During the field investigation, Lou Dingding emphasized that the first quarter serves as a barometer for the year’s economic performance. It is essential to take proactive measures and act decisively, promptly identifying and addressing challenges in economic development to sustain momentum. All efforts must be mobilized to advance project construction, with every possible measure employed to overcome bottlenecks and obstacles in manufacturing projects, ensuring early completion and timely commissioning. Continuous efforts are needed to optimize the business environment, basing policies on enterprises’ needs, devising practical solutions, resolving difficulties, and delivering precise, efficient services so that businesses feel a greater sense of gain. Furthermore, a multi‑pronged approach should be adopted to drive scientific and technological innovation, strengthening the ecosystem for entrepreneurship and innovation through institutional reforms and policy guidance, thereby unleashing dynamism and creativity and providing robust impetus for a strong start to the first quarter.
