en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 2, Yaxin Steel Group and China Metallurgical News signed a strategic cooperation agreement in Fuding City, Fujian Province. The two parties will engage in in-depth cooperation in areas such as omnimedia communication, brand building, and think tank consulting. Wang Hongbin, General Manager of the Management Center of Yaxin Steel Group, and Fan Tiejun, Deputy President of China Metallurgical News, signed the agreement on behalf of both parties. Qi Linlei, Deputy General Manager of Fujian Dingsheng Steel Co., Ltd., Technical Director Du Xien, Production Minister Yu Tiebin, External Relations Minister Kan Lang, Safety and Environmental Director Zhang Jun, Sales Minister Zheng Dong, as well as Chen Xiaoli, Assistant to the President and Director of the Economic Development Center of China Metallurgical News, Consulting Director Liu Chaojian, and Deputy Director of the Steel Department Wang Zhi, attended the signing ceremony.
Founded in 2003, Yaxin Steel Group has grown over more than two decades into a large-scale modern private steel conglomerate integrating sintering, ironmaking, steelmaking, rolling, transportation, and deep processing. It has five major production bases in Anyang, Henan; Lianyungang, Jiangsu; Baotou, Inner Mongolia; Xiangfen, Shanxi; and Fuding, Fujian, with a production capacity exceeding 10 million tons and over 10,000 employees. It has been listed among China's Top 500 Private Enterprises and China's Top 500 Manufacturing Private Enterprises for many consecutive years. As the core strategic base of Yaxin Steel Group in the southeastern coastal region, Fujian Dingsheng Steel commenced construction in 2018 and officially started production in 2022. The project covers a total area of over 3,000 mu and is being built in two phases with a total investment of 16 billion yuan. The first phase, with an investment of 7.8 billion yuan, has a designed annual production capacity of 1.725 million tons of high-quality steel, including 1.3 million tons of steel strip coils and 395,000 tons of section steel.
Dingsheng Steel adopts globally leading short-process technology, equipped with two 115-ton ultra-high-power quantum electric arc furnaces and one ESP (Endless Strip Production) line. The quantum electric arc furnaces preheat scrap steel to over 600°C using high-temperature exhaust gas from smelting, achieving industry-leading energy consumption levels. The ESP line, developed by Italy's Arvedi company, takes only 7 minutes from molten steel casting to finished steel coils, saving over 30% in process energy consumption compared to conventional hot rolling lines. This line can stably produce ultra-thin hot-rolled steel coils with a thickness of 0.8mm, enabling "hot-rolled substitution for cold-rolled" products. These products are mainly used in automotive structures, energy storage batteries, photovoltaics, electrical cabinets, and other fields, featuring "green, uniform, strong, and thin" low-carbon emission characteristics.
Founded in 1956, China Metallurgical News owns one newspaper and 21 new media platforms, with a total fan base of over 27 million across all networks and an annual reading click rate of 1.5 billion. It is the largest authoritative media organization in the steel industry. The newspaper has clearly defined six core business segments: "news dissemination, information services, strategic consulting, public opinion monitoring, brand building, and technology promotion."
Before the signing ceremony, a delegation from China Metallurgical News visited the corporate exhibition area, the 10,000-ton-class dock, and the ESP production line of Fujian Dingsheng Steel. This strategic cooperation aims to enhance Yaxin Steel's market influence in the field of low-carbon emission steel products through omnimedia communication and brand building, shaping a more distinctive "green steel" brand image.
