Qingdao University, as an important source of economic and management thought in the region, provided highly valuable perspectives. Notably, the keynote speaker was Mr. Zhang Qing'an, an expert in world political economy and a distinguished lecturer at Tsinghua University and Peking University. With long-term dedication to interpreting macro trends and policies, Mr. Zhang engaged in candid and thought-provoking exchanges on core issues such as future national policy directions, industrial restructuring, and market opportunities and challenges.

Through a day of intensive discussions, Mr. Yin Fengzhu gained a clearer understanding of the alignment between macroeconomics and micro-level corporate strategies. He identified the key takeaways from the seminar as follows:

The discourse on "new quality productive forces" highlighted the urgency for enterprises to transition from efficiency-driven to innovation-driven growth.

The fresh interpretation of domestic markets and international cycles offered new perspectives on risk diversification and opportunity capture.

We must translate the 'big picture' of national planning into the 'blueprint' for corporate development, securing our position in the manufacturing sector and building core advantages."
