Address key issues: Provide opinions and suggestions on several major issues that need to be resolved during the development of the paper industry during the Tenth Five-Year Plan period.
Key words: China; paper industry; development; thinking; resources; environment; structural adjustment; industrial upgrading; corporate quality; competitiveness; construction funds New Century, China has successfully completed the national "Ninth Five-Year Plan" and achieved modernization The first two steps of the strategic goal. The "Ninth Five-Year Plan" was an important period for China's paper industry restructuring. After various efforts to overcome difficulties, the paper industry maintained a modest growth during the "Ninth Five-Year Plan" period. The structural adjustment achieved initial success and the investment in fixed assets increased substantially. , Pollution prevention and control work has made some progress. In 2000, the country’s paper and board production continued to grow, still ranking third in the world. Social consumption is also increasing and it continues to maintain its position as the second largest consumer nation in the world. Many emerging and well-known paper companies stood out from the crowd and achieved encouraging results. Some large-scale modern paper machines, board machines and modern international advanced pulp and paper equipment and production lines have been commissioned and put into operation. The operation is in good condition, greatly improving the equipment level of China's paper industry and accelerating the modernization of China's paper industry. Scientific and technological research projects have achieved excellent results. Technological progress and innovation have prompted the company's product quality, grade, and variety to reach a new level.
Improvements in business mechanisms, systems, ideas, and business management improvements have resulted in significant improvements in economic efficiency. In particular, the import volume of paper and paperboard in 2000 decreased by 8.45% compared with 1999, and the export volume increased by 162.4%. This is a good news that has not been achieved for many years. In the past two years, the state has given priority to supporting some papermaking enterprises, giving preferential policies to the "double-plus-projects", "projects", "double superior and one-high" projects, and discounted loans for national government bonds, making the company's technological transformation work smooth and achieving remarkable results. Some paper-making enterprises have supported the policy of “debt-equity swaps†by the state and removed heavy debt burdens to get rid of the predicament. There are also many paper companies that have raised large amounts of capital after listing to enable the company to develop, transform, and expand its production scale. What is particularly gratifying is that the private capital of the society has begun to flood into the market, injecting vitality into our papermaking industry, which has greatly promoted the accelerated development of China's paper industry.
However, the contradiction between China's papermaking production and social consumer demand imbalances has become increasingly prominent. Not only has there been a shortage of total market supply, but the effective demand for structural products has also been insufficient. In particular, the import volume of wood pulp has increased substantially year by year. The progress of structural adjustment in the papermaking industry in China has been slow. Many contradictions and problems have not been solved effectively. The overall quality and level of the entire industry is very different from that of foreign countries. The survival and development of many papermaking companies are still in difficulties. In addition, due to the impact of the international pulp and paper market in the past two years, the domestic market price of pulp has fluctuate, and paper prices have also fluctuate greatly. Many companies have difficulty selling their products, and even some joint venture products have a backlog of products. Some papermaking companies still face serious environmental pollution problems and have a very bad social impact.
In the new century, the country’s economic development will enter the third-step strategic goal. The next 10 years will be an extremely important period for China’s social and economic development. The Outline of the National "Tenth Five-Year Plan for Development" has proposed that China's economic structure should be further adjusted and that the industry should be optimized, upgraded, restructured, and reformed. This also pointed out the direction for the development of the paper industry and created good opportunities. How to seize the opportunity, seize the opportunity, and advance better is an important issue that urgently needs serious study and reflection before us.
During the "10th Five-Year Plan" period, China's national economy requires rapid development and the development of the paper industry is in line with it. With the progress of society and the increase of people’s consumption, the market’s demand for paper has shown a significant increase. Relevant parties predict that China’s paper and paperboard social consumption will reach 50 million tons in 2005 and will reach 80 million tons in 2015. The data shows that China's paper industry has extremely broad development space and great potential. It is a promising "sunrise industry" in the 21st century.
In the face of the general trend of economic globalization and the new situation in which China is about to enter the WTO, I have raised my personal opinions and opinions on the sustainable, healthy, and rapid development of China's paper industry.
1 First of all, we must pay close attention to the two major themes of protecting resources and protecting the environment. The paper industry is an industry that has a very close relationship with resources and the environment. In terms of resources, especially water resources, the paper industry has a large amount of water, and China is one of the countries with severe water shortages in the world. Therefore, paper-making enterprises must first pay special attention to water conservation, especially groundwater resources. The water consumption per ton of paper in China's paper mills is as high as 100 meters or more and the comprehensive water consumption per ton of pulp and paper is as high as 300 meters or more. The foreign paper mills' advanced level of water consumption per ton of paper is only 10 to 20 meters 3, even less than 10 meters 3, and the world level of comprehensive water consumption per ton of pulp and paper is 35 to 50 meters. It can be seen that we have great potential for water conservation.
For a long time, a large amount of wastewater from China's papermaking industry has not been recycled and used effectively, and has been arbitrarily discharged, causing serious pollution to the environment. The papermaking industry has become a polluting industry. Although pollution control has made great progress in recent years, the pollution is still quite serious. The foreign papermaking industry has a small amount of water for production, and many of them use wood as raw material for pulping. Waste liquid recovery and treatment technologies are very mature and clean production is achieved. They cultivated a fast-growing and high-yield forest and established a papermaking raw material forest base to develop a modern papermaking industry, which not only ensured the source of papermaking raw materials, but also improved the ecological environment. This is a successful experience in the development of the modern paper industry in the world. Recently approved by the State Council, the “Several Opinions on Accelerating the Construction of Raw Material Forest Base in Papermaking Industry†jointly issued by the State Planning Commission, the Ministry of Finance, and the State Forestry Administration is an important document that promotes the integration of forest and paper, protects resources, and protects the environment. Great significance should be widely publicized and seriously implemented.
To protect resources and protect the environment, waste paper resources should also be fully utilized. The use of secondary fiber raw materials for papermaking can reduce environmental pollution and ecological damage, as well as save a large amount of plant raw materials, power, energy and reduce costs. The application technology of papermaking using waste paper has become increasingly mature and can be used to produce various types and grades of paper. Countries in the world, even countries with rich forest resources such as the United States and Canada, and countries with a large amount of waste paper exports, have vigorously promoted the use of waste paper for papermaking. Many countries have established strict waste paper quality classification standards, and have formulated corresponding laws and regulations on recycling, and forced papermaking enterprises to use a certain percentage of waste paper raw materials as a measure for sustainable development of the paper industry and implementation of environmental protection. Waste paper is a very important fiber resource in the paper industry. It has advantages in economy and environmental protection and has a very broad utilization prospect. At present, China's paper industry has begun to pay attention, especially for the protection of the environment while the lack of papermaking resources in some cities are expanding the use of domestic and foreign paper and paper, but China's paper industry waste paper recycling and waste paper utilization is still very low . There are many problems that need to be solved, and it should cause the relevant departments to pay attention.
2 The overall adjustment of the structure of the paper industry and the industrial upgrading work should quickly grasp the current situation and problems of China's paper industry, speed up the overall adjustment of the industrial structure and industrial upgrading, and strive to narrow the gap with foreign countries, is the continuous, healthy and rapid development of China's paper industry An important measure. Relevant departments have worked out overall plans and ideas, and have put forward clear goals, measures and corresponding policy recommendations for the structural adjustment of raw materials for paper industry, adjustment of product structure, adjustment of the scale of enterprises, and strengthening of environmental protection and pollution control. The content is comprehensive and specific. Among them, adjusting the structure of raw materials should be the most important issue and it is the most important issue for the early revitalization of China's paper industry. The “Several Opinions on Accelerating the Construction of Raw Material Forest Base in Paper Industry†promotes the integrated development of forestry and paper and accelerates the overall adjustment and upgrading of the paper industry with the adjustment of the raw material structure as the core, and provides a series of policy guarantees that will fundamentally change. The raw material structure of China's paper industry and the appearance of the entire paper industry is a major decision to enter the new century, promote the development of China's paper industry, and is also an important turning point for the development of China's paper industry.
The papermaking enterprises in China are small in scale, poor in scale efficiency, and weak in competitiveness. This situation is difficult to participate in the fierce competition in the future market. Improving the scale and strength of enterprises is an important goal of China's paper industry restructuring. It is imperative to establish a modern papermaking enterprise with competitive capabilities and scale advantages. In particular, building a “big boat†or a “joint fleet†mainly composed of a number of large-scale enterprises and enterprise groups as soon as possible is a must for the development of China’s paper industry in the future. This work hopes to get the country's attention and support.
3 In the face of fierce competition in the domestic and international markets, papermaking companies must strive to improve their own quality and competitiveness. The vast majority of papermaking enterprises in China have weak foundations in terms of resources, financial resources, talent, technology, management, production efficiency, industrial structure and modernization level. , are far behind the developed countries. Under the circumstances of economic globalization, internationalization of the domestic market, and China's imminent accession to the WTO, domestic and foreign market competition will further intensify. Paper-making companies will be subject to certain shocks, suffer heavy pressure and face severe challenges. To do this, we must make preparations and carefully study the countermeasures. I think companies should conduct strategic research on future development. We must face the reality, be market-oriented, carefully study the market, understand the market, and analyze the market.
Further deepen reforms, implement institutional innovations, and accelerate the updating and conversion of mechanisms, systems, and ideas. We must use efficiency as the center, give full play to our own strengths, and use our strengths to avoid weaknesses. Accelerate scientific and technological innovation, eliminate backward productivity, speed up technological upgrading, strive to improve product quality, develop high-tech, high-value-added products, and produce market demand and satisfactory products. Strengthen the internal management of enterprises, reduce costs, in order to increase market competitiveness. Qualified enterprises must seize opportunities for development, make full use of policies for reform and opening up, implement strategic corporate reorganizations, optimize organizational structures, and continuously increase their scale through reforms, transformations, mergers, alliances, reorganizations, joint ventures, and listings. , strength, the formation of a strong industrial group, in order to enhance the competitiveness of domestic and international markets.
4 It is necessary to conscientiously implement the funds required for the development of papermaking. The paper industry is a capital-intensive industry. Hundred yuan output value occupies fixed assets equivalent to petroleum, chemical, metallurgical and other industries. In order to accelerate the development of the paper industry in our country and increase the production capacity, we must have construction funds. Enterprises need technological transformation and pollution control, but also need funds. In the past, many listed construction projects were not successfully implemented due to shortage of funds or failure to implement funds. Many companies have insufficient own funds and poor fund-raising capabilities. They cannot make technological innovations and make enterprises in trouble. Therefore, the shortage of funds is the key to restricting the development of China's paper industry. The relevant department estimates show that according to the market consumption demand, by 2015, the paper industry needs to invest about 500 billion yuan. How to solve such huge amounts of money is a big issue that must be carefully studied and solved in future development. Of course, it is impossible to rely entirely on state investment in the past. Taking the path of bank loans, companies have to carry huge debt burdens, and this road does not necessarily go through. Under the current circumstances, actively exploring multiple channels to raise funds, including vigorously introducing foreign capital, striving to expand the use of private capital, and taking the integration of production, finance, market financing, and international financing are the way out.
Now, direct financing for the capital market has become the main method that companies can choose. The way in which leading companies are listed for raising funds is also effective. We should strive to diversify the investment body, diversify the capital structure, and channel sources of funds. By adjusting the investment structure of the papermaking industry, we must resolve the shortage of funds in the paper industry as soon as possible. The development of the paper industry has a bearing on the overall situation of the growth of the national economy. The State should consider increasing the necessary investment, formulating preferential policies, or drawing up certain funds for the paper industry development fund, and earmarking for some major projects, or the paper industry. Including the scope of national policy loans, give priority to support. Otherwise, China's paper industry will lose important development opportunities.
