Guotai Junan issued a document saying that with the change of demand structure, the demand for plates has steadily increased, and the demand for high-end plates such as automobiles, household appliances, shipbuilding, offshore engineering and energy is strong. The added value and profit per ton of products brought by leading companies' active adjustment of product structure, accumulation of products, R&D drive, continuous capital expenditure and equipment investment have been significantly improved, gradually widening the gap with the industry average gross profit. When the industry is facing the marginal losses of most steel enterprises, leading companies still maintain a high profit level by relying on the cost advantages brought by product differences and management, and the rise and differentiation of industry leaders are emerging. On the other hand, with the gradual increase in the supply side and the difficulty in improving the demand side, iron ore has gradually entered a loose cycle, and the steel cost constraints are expected to gradually improve.CITIC Securities: Relevant central state-owned enterprises engaged in business and equity cooperation with Huawei are expected to enjoy Huawei's empowerment. CITIC Securities pointed out that at the moment when the four sectors of intelligent selection are gathering together and the HI model is fully expanded, we believe that the investment core of Huawei's OEM is "change and invariance", that is, business model and partner iteration, but the top-level design of "not building cars, helping car companies build good cars" and the commercial appeal of maximizing sales and profits are not avoided. In addition, in the stage of deep cooperation with Huawei, the organizational structure and corporate governance of partners have been greatly improved. Similarly, we believe that relevant central state-owned enterprises engaged in business and equity cooperation with Huawei are expected to enjoy Huawei's empowerment, and Huawei will help the reform of state-owned enterprises.
