As the domestic real estate industry rapidly declines, the aerated concrete industry has entered a period of deep adjustment, with a severe market situation that has a significant impact on the production and operation of enterprises and the stable development of the upstream and downstream industrial chains. At the same time, the entire industry has deeply felt the various drawbacks brought about by "involutionary" vicious competition, such as severe overcapacity, price-cutting competition, and sacrificing product quality to reduce costs. These phenomena not only harm the long-term interests of enterprises but also hinder the healthy and sustainable development of the entire industry. Recently, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee pointed out: it is necessary to strengthen industry self-discipline to prevent "involutionary" vicious competition. To promote the harmony and stability of the industry market ecosystem, we hereby issue the following initiative to the entire industry.
1. Establish a win-win concept and promote collaborative development. Industry enterprises should establish a macro perspective and long-term vision, adhere to the concept of win-win cooperation, strengthen exchanges and cooperation, share resources, and overcome difficulties together. Enterprises should enhance communication, achieve complementary advantages, and form a positive interactive development pattern.
2. Adhere to quality standards and resist substandard products. Industry enterprises should regard product quality as their core competitiveness, ensure that the products they manufacture meet national standards, and guarantee the stability of product quality. They must resolutely not become manufacturers of substandard products. Avoid short-term actions at the expense of others' interests and jointly maintain a fair market competition order.
3. Keep the cost bottom line and oppose low-price dumping. Industry enterprises should rationally view market fluctuations, keep the cost bottom line, maintain strategic focus; oppose price-cutting dumping, resist vicious competition, and avoid market stampedes. Together, we should create a stable market environment, ensure the long-term interests of consumers and the sustainable development of the industry.
4. Strengthen technological innovation and enhance core competitiveness. Industry enterprises should actively explore new technologies, new processes, and new models, continuously improve the technological content of products, increase product functionality and added value, enhance enterprise core competitiveness and market adaptability, seek differentiated competition, and fundamentally break away from dependence on low-level price competition.
5. Uphold the principle of integrity and maintain market order. Industry enterprises must strictly comply with national laws and regulations, respect intellectual property rights, and not engage in any form of false advertising, malicious slander of competitors, or other unfair competitive practices. By doing so, they can win the trust and respect of the market and consumers, and jointly create an honest and trustworthy market atmosphere.
In the current rapidly changing and fiercely competitive market environment, we have collectively witnessed the industry's vigorous development and are also facing new challenges given by the times. During this special period, the industry must base itself on a new stage of development, implement new development concepts, and build a new development pattern. Let us unite in self-discipline, work together, and pool our strength to resolutely resist "involutionary" vicious competition. In the industry's transformation and upgrading towards green, low-carbon, and high-quality development, we must persist in seven "by all means," overcome difficulties, and jointly create a fair and stable market environment, promoting the industry towards a healthy, orderly, and more prosperous future!
