In the future, it will be held alternately in Shenzhen and Shanghai in a single year to promote upstream and downstream rubber and plastics companies to explore greater business opportunities in the new pattern of China's economic development.

Seeing the geographical advantages of the Greater Bay Area, the new journey will move towards a vast world

Unparalleled advantages in the Chinese market-Affected by the new crown epidemic, the world economy has suffered a deep recession. In response to the downward pressure on foreign trade, the State Council has urged exports to be sold domestically, and domestic demand has become the norm in China's economy. China has a population of more than 1.4 billion and more than 400 million middle-income groups, corresponding to the world's largest market size and consumption potential. This is an unparalleled advantage of any economy in the world, and it is also the resilience and potential of China's economy. . Benefiting from the gradual growth of the middle class, there is huge room for consumption upgrades. In recent years, some labor-intensive industries and low-end manufacturing industries have moved abroad. With the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, the global economy is facing a new round of baptism, and the pattern of the manufacturing industry chain will undergo major adjustments. In the global value chain, China is climbing to the high end, and high-tech products are constantly moving from China to overseas, including a series of high-end equipment such as communication equipment, high-speed rail systems, and drones. Driven by scientific research and innovation, the industry continues to transform and upgrade, and the demand for rubber and plastic technology innovation and intelligent manufacturing has increased. In addition, China is actively responding to plastic pollution, accelerating the promotion of green and sustainable development, and recycling and environmental protection technologies show broad market prospects.

 Major opportunities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area benefit the rubber and plastics industry-The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is the world’s largest bay area, accounting for 0.6% of China’s area and 5% of its population, contributing 12% of the country’s GDP. It is expected to be GDP by 2030 It will reach RMB 28.9 trillion, making it one of the top ten economies in the world. "9+2" cities are accelerating coordinated development, building a vibrant world-class city cluster, and stimulating new momentum for economic development. The Greater Bay Area is not only an international technological innovation center, but also the most intensive area of plastic products processing in China. In 2019, the total output of plastic products in 9 cities in the region reached 11.17 million tons, accounting for 13.65% of the country's proportion (second only to Zhejiang Province). It accounts for 83.41% of Guangdong Province. The huge volume of support and strong innovation drive will promote the rubber and plastics industry to rise up in the huge opportunities of economic development.

"Dual-zone drive", Shenzhen is at full capacity-Shenzhen, one of the core engines of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, was given a new status as a pilot demonstration zone in 2019, fully releasing the superimposed effect of "dual-zone drive". In 2018, the total industrial added value of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area was 2,820.249 billion yuan, of which Shenzhen ranked first in the Greater Bay Area, accounting for 32.3%. "Technology + Innovation" is the dazzling business card of Shenzhen. More than 3 million companies have taken root in Shenzhen, including innovative companies such as Huawei, ZTE, Tencent, DJI, BYD, and TCL. In 2018, Guangdong Province invested 270.47 billion yuan in R&D expenditure, ranking first in China, among which Shenzhen ranked first in Guangdong.

Embrace the business opportunities in the post-epidemic era, and inject new momentum into the new journey

The solid industrial foundation laid over the years, the resilience and continuity of the development of the rubber and plastics industry, and the continuous emergence of new business formats are enough to make people optimistic about the prospects of the rubber and plastics industry. In the first quarter of 2020, due to factors such as the new crown pneumonia epidemic, production suspension, and the off-season of the Spring Festival, the output of plastic products in China fell by 22.91% year-on-year; as the resumption of work and production progressed in an orderly manner, the industrial chain and supply chain were gradually operating normally, and the total number of plastics in April The year-on-year decline in total product output narrowed, and the month-on-month recovery was 8.6%. In the fight against the epidemic, epidemic prevention materials, medical supplies, and medical construction have played a key role, and plastics play an important role in them. The epidemic has also given birth to takeaways, fresh food delivery, express delivery, convenience food, home electronics, medical supplies, and fitness equipment. In the post-epidemic era, 5G, AI, healthy cars, healthy home appliances, unmanned driving, high-end medical care, etc. have accelerated, and new materials such as new medical materials, antibacterial materials, safety packaging, protective materials, digital production, recycling, and recyclability have been accelerated. The demand for new equipment and new technology is expected to remain high, bringing new development opportunities to the industry. 5G is the vanguard of the "new infrastructure". The establishment of "CHINAPLAS 2021 International Rubber and Plastics Exhibition" in Shenzhen will help rubber and plastics enterprises to seize the new infrastructure. Shenzhen is actively building a world-class 5G industry cluster area. It has significant regional advantages in the 5G field. Not only has 5G applications accelerated everywhere, but also has a complete 5G industrial chain. A large number of globally competitive companies such as Huawei and ZTE continue to develop force. "CHINAPLAS" as a high-tech, high-quality, high-value commerce and technology exchange platform in line with market trends, will help the industry quickly respond to new market needs and seize opportunities in a changing environment.
