Chen Hongliang, secretary of CPC Committee and chairman of Tianma Microelectronics Co., Ltd.
"We have been in Xiamen for 8 years and I have to say something that is deep in my heart about it today", said Chen Hongliang, secretary of CPC Committee and chairman of Tianma Microelectronics Co., Ltd., to start his speech.
He reviewed the development history of Tianma in Xiamen. In 2011, Tianma invested 7 billion Yuan in a production line of low-temperature polycrystalline silicon in Xiamen; in 2015, it made an additional investment of 12 billion Yuan in the construction of its 6G production line of low-temperature polycrystalline silicon. With nearly 20,000 employees in Xiamen today, Tianma has invested several billion Yuan in the R&D of its core technologies cumulatively, and established strategic partnerships with Huawei, Xiaomi, Vivo, OPPO and other world-famous brands. In 2018, Tianma broke decades of international monopoly and realized the highest share in the global market of low-temperature polycrystalline silicon products.
According to Chen, Xiamen governmental officials know about their services well and have a strong sense of responsibility; the government is honest and credible, keeps its promises, provides real and good services, has the courage to make innovations, abides by rules and emphasizes partnership. He quoted the 2016 Typhoon Meranti attack as an example. Tianma's suppliers were very worried about the impacts on cargo delivery then. With the support from Xiamen government, Tianma resumed the production in just three days and realized complete production in one week. "Without the support from Xiamen Government in all aspects, we won't have developed so smoothly and successfully".
"We are very excited about the speech of Hu Changsheng, member of the Standing Committee of CPC Fujian Provincial Committee and secretary of CPC Municipal Committee, during the conference", said Chen Hongliang, "enterprises have great development potentials considering the superb geographic advantages, strategic opportunities and cultural environment of Xiamen". He disclosed Tianma’s two actions in the future: firstly, Tianma will hold its global supplier conference in Xiamen in May to actively respond to the Investment Promotion Conference. Several hundred upstream and downstream enterprises of the industrial chain will come to Xiamen then, including 100+ listed companies. These enterprises are expected to know more about Xiamen and develop in Xiamen together. Secondly, Tianma will formulate a new plan to facilitate the development of the industrial chain and contribute to the social and economic development of Xiamen.
