As the construction schedule nears completion and the year-end approaches, the project team of Zhejiang Company’s 20,000-ton-per-year heavy steel plant has mobilized its leadership, work crews, and frontline workers to forgo holiday breaks, overcoming challenges such as rainfall and extreme cold to press ahead with overtime and accelerate progress.

“To ensure the timely completion of the Chongqing Steel workshop, we promptly adjusted the project plan and deployed additional personnel to accelerate progress before the 2014 New Year. Our workers even continued working overtime on Christmas Eve,” Xie Weicheng, a member of the project’s leading group, told reporters. As of December 25, all construction phases of the Chongqing Steel workshop are nearing completion, with workers busily carrying out final finishing touches and installing some equipment. The project is scheduled for completion by the end of December and to enter service in early 2014.

The completion and commissioning of the heavy‑steel workshop will not only significantly boost production capacity, but also lay the groundwork for accelerating transformation and upgrading—shifting from simple light steel to complex heavy steel—thereby further enhancing the enterprise’s overall competitiveness and reviving the former glory of Yuegong.
