"Sizzle!"

  With a crisp sound, a thin stainless steel sheet was easily torn apart;

  It is translucent, reflecting a mirror-like luster;

  A piece of A4 paper size, but worth at least 400 yuan;

  The 0.02mm "hand-tear steel" developed by Taiyuan Iron and Steel Group is currently the thinnest stainless steel in China.

  Before the National Two Sessions in 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited TISCO in Shanxi and paid special attention to this "net celebrity" product in the eyes of the public.

  Walking into the TISCO Group, in the fully automated workshops, gears are spinning and the machines roaring, and there is almost no pollution or smell.

  General Secretary Xi Jinping went deep into the enterprise and inspected the case of enterprise transformation and development.

  In front of the bright unit, he stopped and stared, and strips of bright silver foil as thin as paper sheets were slowly conveying into the high-temperature annealing furnace with the decoiler.

  How thin can a page be as thin as paper?

  The thickness of A4 paper is 0.1 mm, and the thickness of this piece of steel is only about 1/5 of that of A4 paper, 0.02 mm. It can be easily torn by hand, so it is vividly called "hand-tear steel".

  Three or four years ago, 70%-80% of the company's products were conventional materials, with low technical content and fierce market competition. With the development of the electronics industry, TISCO began its transformation in 2016, and its products have developed in the direction of ultra-thin, high-hardness, ultra-flat, and special materials.

  After two years, after 711 tests and overcoming 175 equipment problems and 452 process problems, TISCO finally succeeded in producing stainless steel precision strips with a thickness of 0.02 mm and a width of 600 mm.

  In the workshop of Taiyuan Iron and Steel, General Secretary Xi Jinping took a piece of "hand torn steel" and inspected it carefully. He twisted it lightly with his fingers. He couldn't help but praised: "The workmanship is really good. It is as thin as tin foil. Finger soft."

  Phoenix Nirvana, reborn from the ashes. TISCO, which has moved from traditional steel processing to high-precision, high-value-added industries, is an epitome of the traditional economic model insisting on innovation and taking the road of high-quality transformation and development.

  At the door of the production workshop, General Secretary Xi Jinping had a cordial exchange with the staff representatives who surrounded him, "I hope you will continue to work hard, continue to climb the peak in high-end manufacturing technology innovation, and take new and greater steps in supporting advanced manufacturing."

  The affectionate encouragement is full of the general secretary's emphasis on innovation and the persistent pursuit of high-quality development of the Chinese economy.

  "To grasp innovation is to grasp development, and to seek innovation is to seek the future."

  General Secretary Xi Jinping has always attached great importance to innovation. He emphasized in his article "In-depth understanding of the new development concept": "Innovation is put first because innovation is the first driving force leading development."

On the morning of July 31, the completion and opening ceremony of the Beidou-3 global satellite navigation system was held in Beijing. General Secretary Xi Jinping attended the ceremony and announced the official opening of the Beidou-3 global satellite navigation system.

  Boarded the domestic large aircraft and EMUs, praised the LED industry, boarded the top of the Three Gorges Dam, and announced the official opening of the Beidou-3 global satellite navigation system...From universities to scientific research institutes, from enterprises to national independent innovation demonstration zones, General Secretary Xi Jinping has never stopped striving for innovation and development.

  "Grasp the initiative of innovation and development firmly in one's own hands." "Core technology cannot be achieved by alms" "We must rely on self-reliance to force the improvement of independent innovation ability"...a sentence of ardent enlightenment, and a stern reminder. The heart, prompting China's "intelligence" to make the light of innovation flashes frequently.

  The "Fuxing" high-speed rail ran out of China's speed, the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge set a number of world bests, Beijing Daxing International Airport Phoenix spread its wings, Beidou built its own satellite navigation system for the Chinese... Business cards have all become important engines for the high-quality development of China's economy.

  In response to the new crown pneumonia epidemic, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized more than once, “to cultivate new opportunities in the crisis, and to open new games in the changing situation”, “to deploy the innovation chain around the industrial chain, and to lay out the industrial chain around the innovation chain”, “to develop new models and new Business formats, new technologies, new products".

  Next year, my country will begin to implement the "14th Five-Year Plan". In the final year of the "13th Five-Year Plan" and the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, it is especially necessary to look forward and think deeply.

  A few days ago, General Secretary Xi Jinping listened to everyone's opinions and suggestions on the current economic situation and the "14th Five-Year Plan" in local inspections and important meetings.

  On July 21st, General Secretary Xi Jinping hosted a symposium for entrepreneurs in Beijing. He specifically mentioned that entrepreneurs should be explorers, organizers, and leaders of innovative development, and encouraged everyone to work hard to build enterprises into powerful innovation entities. Realize the Phoenix Nirvana and rebirth from the ashes.

  "Xiongguan Mandao is really like iron, and now it's a step forward."

  Change from "has it" to "good or bad", from "old kinetic energy" to "new kinetic energy", and from "accumulated amount" to "quality improvement". With innovation as the fulcrum to promote the high-quality development of China's economy, we will never give up.
