Premier Wen Jiabao listened to a presentation by the Group’s General Manager Mr. Hu Yueming, in which he reported on the company’s business activities and its efforts on promoting domestic demand as well as maintaining continued growth. Afterwards he inspected the manufacturing and assembly facility of wind turbine gearbox, and met with the staff, taking a keen interest in their work, daily activities and studies. In view of the good spirit of staffs and cadres and the upbeat development prospect of the enterprise, he felt very delighted.
Before his departure, Premier Wen Jiabao met with the staff that had gathered to say good bye and shook hands with each member. In a short message he told the staff that “I feel inspired after visiting your factory. Even in these difficult economic times, the business outlook of your company is positive and optimistic. Why is this? It is because you are standing at the forefront of the wind power generating industry. This is an industry which is badly needed in the international market place today. It tells us the simple truth that we need to grasp opportunities and market shares in order to cope with financial crises. What shall we depend on? We depend on competitive products! I wish you continued success.”
