Since the outbreak of the international financial crisis in 2008, it has now been two years. Many countries in the world, especially economic powers, have formulated a series of development strategies for economic recovery. China is no exception. From a long-term perspective, the country's strategic policy must be conducive to China's economic development, but if only from the perspective of the hardware industry, then what is it?
Macro-control:
Taking the first half of this year as an example, the Chinese government has introduced a series of macro-control policies. Frequent policy adjustments have had a certain degree of influence on the development of the hardware industry.
In terms of monetary policy, the country implements a moderately loose monetary policy, and the actual grasp of the scale has been tightened. Therefore, the corporate capital is still in a tight state. At the same time, exchange rate policies also have unfavorable factors for the development of the industry. The increase in cost is another important factor constraining the development of the hardware industry.
Speaking of macro-control, presumably this year, people are most impressed by property regulation in April. The policy regulation of the real estate once caused the property market to be in a cold period, and the chain caused the furniture market, building hardware, sanitary plumbing and decoration hardware to be affected to varying degrees. Although the national regulation will take half a year, the property market may rebound, but in the sales season of October this year, hardware vendors are still enthusiastic about the market's warmer growth and expect a small attitude.
Energy conservation:
With the intensification of global environmental pollution problems, more and more countries are advocating the return of industrial development to the real economy. Through the efficient use of resources and encouraging independent innovation, a more healthy and greener economy will be achieved, and a low-carbon economy will be the core. Promote the "green growth" model generated by new technologies.
The industries most affected by the “energy saving and emission reduction†policy in China are the iron and steel industry. The limited electricity restriction production policy affects the nationwide steel price as a “roller coaster†market, and sometimes steel products and spot prices continue to decline, sometimes Baosteel. The three major steel enterprises of Wuhan Iron and Steel and Anshan Iron and Steel Company have experienced “price increase†phenomenon and there is a contradiction between supply and demand in the domestic market.
In order to maintain and expand our global market share, we must first accelerate the adjustment of product structure, increase the pace of product quality, and enhance competitiveness. Second, we must integrate green design concepts into our product cycle, from design to manufacturing. Use and maintenance should be reflected in energy saving, consumption reduction, efficiency, and reliability.
Anti-dumping:
In contrast, China’s policy adjustments in foreign trade have not changed. In recent years, a series of products such as fasteners, wire mesh trays, auto parts, spring components, stainless steel cutlery, pipeline accessories, and seamless steel tubes have all been subjected to tariff sanctions and anti-dumping.
Moreover, in recent years, the U.S. exports to China have frequently set up anti-circumvention barriers. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the legitimate trade of Chinese foreign hardware companies. Faced with this situation, although the state has introduced a series of policies to protect these companies, it has had little success. The hardware companies can only adopt countermeasures on their own. On the one hand, they comply with EU anti-circumvention laws and act cautiously; The use of law to protect themselves and learn reasonable avoidance.
In 2010, it was a test for Chinese hardware companies. The adjustment of national policies has obviously caused a lot of impact on the development of hardware companies. However, only changes can create opportunities. As long as hardware companies can grasp the business opportunities, they will certainly be able to Get bigger development!
