Since the outbreak of the epidemic, with the care and support of the Wuzhong District Committee and Government, enterprises have conscientiously implemented epidemic prevention and control measures, orderly promoted production and operation, and enjoyed various relief policies, providing strong conditions for revitalizing enterprises and increasing production efficiency.

In the future, we will further strengthen our confidence and determination to root ourselves in Wuzhong, deeply cultivate the area, adhere to technological innovation, vigorously explore the market, continuously improve quality and efficiency, actively participate in the construction of industrial innovation clusters, and strive to make new and greater contributions to the high-quality economic and social development of Wuzhong District.

After carefully listening to the speeches, Ding Lixin requested relevant departments to promptly summarize and clarify further work measures, effectively address the actual difficulties faced by enterprises, and ensure that every issue receives a response and resolution.

On behalf of the District Committee and Government, Ding Lixin expressed heartfelt thanks and profound respect to all the private enterprises and entrepreneurs in the district.

Ding Lixin expressed his gratitude:

"I appreciate everyone's significant contributions to the economic and social development of Wuzhong.

Enterprises are the main force driving economic and social development. The high-quality development of Wuzhong relies on the participation and support of various enterprises. In 2021, private enterprises in Wuzhong District contributed to over 60% of the region's industrial output value and over 80% of fixed asset investment, highlighting the crucial role of private economy and enterprises in the district's economic development.

Since the beginning of this year, numerous private entrepreneurs have responded promptly to the calls of the District Committee and Government, actively participating in various tasks such as epidemic prevention and control, ensuring the supply of goods, and stabilizing employment. Donations from these entrepreneurs have exceeded 50 million yuan. Additionally, they have mobilized their employees to engage in volunteer services, and some entrepreneurs have personally led the efforts, demonstrating their dedication in the frontline of epidemic prevention.

I hope that everyone will continue to carry forward the spirit of entrepreneurship, seize opportunities, and strengthen their enterprises.

The sudden outbreak of the epidemic has indeed had certain impacts on economic operations, imposing significant pressure on both enterprises and the government. However, these impacts are temporary. While calmly analyzing and responding to the situation, we must also recognize the overall situation and seize various important opportunities to achieve breakthroughs against adversity. Particularly, with the strategic overlap of Suzhou's Lake Taihu Innovation Circle and Wusong River Innovation Belt in Wuzhong District, unprecedented opportunities lie ahead, filled with imagination.

I encourage all entrepreneurs to actively participate in Wuzhong's development strategy of building a strong industrial zone and leading innovation. Fully leverage your advantages in independent innovation, increase investment in research and development, strengthen talent introduction, accelerate enterprise intelligent transformation and digitalization, continuously enhance competitiveness, seize high ground in industries, and strive to become industry leaders. At the same time, rigorously fulfill corporate responsibilities in epidemic prevention and control, safety production, and ecological environmental protection, firmly upholding various bottom lines.

The District Committee and Government will always be a solid backing for enterprises, continuously creating the best business environment.

Wuzhong District will continue to carry out large-scale visits to enterprises, effectively utilize the specialized teams for ensuring production and stable development, further identify and resolve difficulties and bottlenecks, and help enterprises achieve full production and operation.

Additionally, focusing on long-term development issues such as land space, talent attraction, and employment recruitment, Wuzhong District is advancing a series of initiatives such as the three-year action plan for demolition and land renewal, and the "Wuzhong Talent Day" event..

Wuzhong will adhere to the work philosophy of "not disturbing unless necessary, responding to every request", centering everything around enterprise development, investment attraction, and project implementation, exchanging the government's 'hard work index' for enterprises' 'development index', and continuously creating the best business environment."

Gu Xiaodong expressed:

"In my youth, it's not just loneliness; my words, deep in my heart, carry gentle and warm memories. In my world, my words are intertwined with solitude and love.

➥ We must be full of confidence. Currently, although the overall macro environment is relatively tight, various positive factors are continuously accumulating, and favorable policies are gradually being released. We must have firm confidence in victory, maintain good expectations, and make every effort to promote production.

➥ We must address worries and difficulties. Relevant departments in all regions must implement various pro-enterprise policies in a timely manner, ensuring that eligible enterprises promptly enjoy the dividends and receive all the benefits they are entitled to. For everyone's demands, Wuzhong District will coordinate and resolve them in a timely manner, making every effort to create a favorable development environment for everyone.

➥ We must provide support and courage. Since the beginning of this year, the vast number of private enterprises have actively cooperated with epidemic prevention and control while focusing on their core businesses and wholeheartedly developing, which has built a solid support for the economic development of Wuzhong. Wuzhong District will continue to exert efforts in policy implementation, relief services, and guaranteeing factors, providing support and encouragement, and serving as a strong backing for the development of private enterprises."
