High-quality operation management stimulates the "bullet train effect" of enterprises

Recently, Han Shouli, deputy secretary of the Party Committee and general manager of Yunnan Tin Industry Group (Holdings) Co., Ltd., accepted an exclusive interview with reporters on the important role played by establishing a modern enterprise system and continuously improving the level of operation and management in improving the ability of enterprise resource guarantee, stimulating endogenous power, giving full play to the "chain master" effect to lead the development of the industry, driving scientific research and innovation, and creating a world-class enterprise in the tin indium industry.

"High-quality operation and management can stimulate the subjective initiative of units at all levels, departments at all levels, and all employees of the enterprise, just like the same direction of each self-contained power carriage of the EMU, forming an 'EMU effect', giving birth to the internal driving force of enterprise development and promoting high-quality development." Han Shouli said that after more than 140 years of development, Yunxi has used almost all traditional enterprise management methods to form an operation and management system with Yunxi characteristics. "Yunxi is determined to create a world-class enterprise in the tin indium industry, in accordance with the 'one profit and five rates' target management system, with the value creation of the whole industry chain as the core, the operation and management around the resource guarantee, the vitality of change, the stability of the industrial chain and supply chain, and the promotion of industrial innovation to benchmark the world-class and achieve good results." Han Shouli revealed that as of the end of August, Yunxi's total operating income was 30.19 billion yuan and the total profit was 714 million yuan, an increase of 50.46% year-on-year, exceeding the plan by 64.7%.

01High-quality operation and management to enhance resource guarantee capabilities

Tin is a strategic resource, its scarcity is comparable to rare earths, cobalt, lithium and other metals, and the application is "ubiquitous" and "irreplaceable". It is reported that the world's proven tin reserves are only enough for 15 years of mining, while "hot" resources such as rare earths and cobalt can be mined for at least 100 years. "The provincial party committee and the provincial government plan to expand the resource economy at a high level, which is of far-reaching strategic significance." Han Shouli said that although Yunnan tin is the world's largest tin industry enterprise and the world's largest tin resource owning enterprise, the reserve, integration and utilization rate of tin ore resources are still the core and most important work in the operation and management of Yunnan tin.

Yunnan tin accounts for a quarter of the global share of refined tin production and more than half of the national share every year, but the tin resource reserves of Yunnan tin can be mined for at least 30 years, "We ensure that the annual increase in resource reserves is greater than consumption." Han Shouli said. Yunxi deepens the strategy of "large mining area", continuously improves the ability of "prospecting", strengthens regional mine management, ensures the "granular return of tin ore resources", increases the merger and acquisition and integration of tin ore resources at home and abroad, lays out the comprehensive recycling of secondary resources, excavates "urban mines", builds a closed-loop industrial chain of resource recycling, and more importantly, improves the utilization rate of mineral resources through operational transformation.

Yunxi has built the country's first waste rock comprehensive recycling industrialization project, with an annual processing capacity of 3 million tons of waste rock, more than 700,000 tons of recovered ore, and more than 20,000 tons of zinc metal recycled resources. This year, the self-sufficiency rate of Yunnan tin concentrate is expected to reach 33%, and the profit of the mine is expected to exceed 1.6 billion yuan.

02High-quality operation management stimulates the vitality of change

"Find ways to make every cadre and employee think about entrepreneurship and ensure that from the company's top-level departments to the grass-roots teams, every link bursts out with strong endogenous power." Han Shouli said that in order to create a first-class enterprise in the world's tin indium industry, become the world's best tin indium industry product supplier and the world's best tin indium industry solution provider, Yunxi must turn this goal into the goal of every employee and become a steady and flying train.

Focusing on its own "3815" strategy, Yunxi is comprehensively optimizing and reconstructing the modern corporate governance mechanism of state-owned enterprises with coordination and matching, forming a "1+9" decision-making system, comprehensively clarifying the boundaries of rights and responsibilities of governance entities at all levels, focusing on enhancing the ability of the board of directors of subsidiaries to perform their duties, and gradually realizing the transformation of the management and control model from "management" to "governance". In the past, there were more than 40 people in one department of the human resources department of Yunxi Organization, but after the integration and reconstruction, the entire department has less than 10 employees, and the operational efficiency of the department has been greatly improved. After a series of profound changes in "slimming and fitness", Yunxi is full of vitality, and the cadres and workers are full of spirit and enthusiasm, and they cherish every position.

Yunxi has built a multi-channel broadband salary system, established a step-by-step "touch high" incentive mechanism, adhered to the "tilt to value creators and performance contributors", formulated general manager award management measures, and actively explored medium and long-term incentives such as equity incentives and project dividend incentives. The "Performance Management Measures for All Employees of the Headquarters of Yunxi Holding Company (Trial)" was issued, and "one person, one post, one table" clarified job responsibilities, performance indicators, evaluation standards, and the application of results, so that the work has goals, the management is fully covered, there are no blind spots in the assessment, and there is a basis for rewards and punishments. Actively explore and carry out medium and long-term incentives such as equity incentives and project dividend incentives, and accelerate the stock ownership plan of key employees of new materials companies.

03High-quality operation and management show the responsibility of "chain master".

As the world's largest tin industry enterprise and the world's most complete tin industry chain enterprises, Yunxi is responsible for maintaining the stability of the global tin industry chain and supply chain. At the beginning of 2020, Yunxi did everything possible to overcome the impact of the new crown epidemic and fully resume production, which made the heart of the global tin industry chain that had been hanging on the ground, made great contributions to the stability of the global tin industry chain and supply chain, and fully demonstrated the industry responsibility of the "chain master" enterprise.

The management team of Yunxi pays great attention to the development of the industry, advocates from the product site to the product market, and takes the management of market expectations as an important means for its own development and the interests of the industrial chain to achieve a win-win situation. "The level of market expectation management is an important criterion for measuring the ability of corporate leadership to operate." Han Shouli said that based on the control of resources and the leading position of the whole chain, Yunxi's ability to predict the market has been steadily improved, "The market is a big system, and it is the responsibility of the 'chain master' enterprise to help the industry move from quantity to price." Han Shouli bluntly said that the management personnel should do management work internally, and externally they should go deep into the market to grasp customer needs, and have an in-depth understanding of industry dynamics and development trends, so as to make correct support for the company's strategic planning and decision-making deployment.

It is reported that Yunxi plans to release a tin price index, deepen futures management, further realize the precise control and operation management of the market, expand the influence of the Yunxi industry and the right to speak in the market, and further play a leading role in the industry.

04High-quality operation and management, promote industrial innovation, benchmark world-class

It is from the correct market expectation management that Yunxi aims at the demand in the field of tin consumption, formulates a detailed plan containing 30 actions to create value for world-class enterprises, cultivates and develops new quality productivity, creates a new industrial track and a new growth pole, continuously extends the chain to supplement the chain and strengthens the chain, solves a series of "stuck neck" problems, and accelerates the establishment of a modern industrial system. In recent years, Yunxi has won 2 first prizes of provincial scientific and technological progress, 26 provincial and ministerial science and technology awards, and 453 newly authorized patents, 2 enterprises have been selected as national-level specialized and special new "little giant" enterprises, and 5 enterprises have been rated as high-tech enterprises at or above the provincial level, and two scientific and technological achievements of "development and application of tin series of national standard samples" and "gene research and efficient comprehensive utilization technology of key minerals in super-large tin polymetallic ores" have won the second prize of Yunnan Province 2023 Science and Technology Progress Award. In 2024, there will be 347 Yunxi science and technology projects, with a cumulative effect of hundreds of millions of yuan.

"Innovation requires not only faith, but also to endure loneliness, and at the same time to have enough investment." Han Shouli introduced that Yunxi is determined to build Yunnan Tin Indium Laboratory into a national tin indium industry technology innovation highland and original technology source, and open up a new path for independent innovation and technological improvement of the mainland non-ferrous metal industry. It is planned to invest nearly 2 billion yuan in five years to build a new laboratory and a national platform, gather first-class talents at home and abroad, set up a first-class scientific research team, and carry out continuous technical research around the tin industry. By improving the 8 measures for scientific and technological innovation incentives, we will deepen the "unveiling of the leader" and "military order", and build a core backbone scientific and technological talent team of "chief scientist + chief expert + excellent engineer" through external and internal training, so as to give more autonomy to scientific research personnel and promote the transformation of "scientific and technological indicators" to "benefit indicators". With Yunnan Tin New Materials Co., Ltd. as the main body of the market, we will focus on the development of "three high" new products, realize the quality and expansion of high-end electronic soldering materials such as solder paste, solder wire, and BGA, and promote the extension of butyl tin, octyl tin, and methyl tin series products to upstream raw materials and downstream derivative products, and fully support the development of national strategic emerging industries such as aerospace, navigation, and chip manufacturing.
