· China or break the foreign shareholding situation of automobile joint ventures

According to Bloomberg, the Chinese government is considering raising the shareholding limit of foreign capital in joint venture automobile manufacturing enterprises. For overseas automakers, the relaxation of this policy will make it more confident in competition with Chinese state-owned companies and local brands.
Xu Shaoshi, director of the National Development and Reform Commission, said at the Summer World Economic Forum in Davos in Tianjin that the government is considering raising the 50% foreign shareholding cap. Since 1994, China has required overseas automakers to establish joint ventures with local partners to invest in factories in China, and the shareholding ratio in joint ventures must not exceed 50%.
Li Shufu, Chairman of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, is one of the people who support overseas automakers to control their business in China. He said that this move is conducive to stimulating competition and then benefiting consumers.
The China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) is opposed to this. The agency warned in 2014 that if overseas automakers are allowed to be more independent in their cooperation with their local partners, the development of China's own auto brands will be “killed in the cradle”.
In recent years, China's independent automobile brands have continued to increase their market share in the domestic passenger vehicle market, and their sales volume has reached a new high for five years in 2015. Strong demand for low-cost SUV models is considered to be an important reason.
At present, China is the world's largest auto market. In the past 10 months, the overall delivery volume of the Chinese automotive industry has increased for nine consecutive months. During this period, the policy of halving the purchase tax of 1.6 liters and below issued in October last year was considered to have played a catalytic role. However, data from the China Automobile Dealers Association show that the industry's inventory levels remain above the “health line” for nine consecutive months.
For a long time, overseas automakers wishing to build factories in China must achieve this through joint ventures with local companies. For example, Volkswagen has established joint ventures with FAW Group and SAIC. Ford Motor has cooperated with Changan Automobile, which is headquartered in Chongqing. Hyundai Motor and BAIC have joint ventures. Nissan has partnered with Dongfeng Motor Group in Wuhan, Hubei.
Earlier this year, Tesla confirmed that it would build a plant in China, but the current site selection and joint venture targets have not yet been determined. There have been rumors that the Pudong Jinqiao Export Processing Zone in Shanghai may become the location of its production base. However, this news was immediately denied by Tesla and Pudong Jinqiao. In addition to Shanghai, Suzhou, Hefei and Chongqing have also appeared in similar rumors.

Gold Concentrator

The STL water-jacketed gold concentrator is a kind of gravity separation equipment. It was developed by Changchun Gold Research Institute Co., Ltd. in 1985 and entered the market. At present, it has been used in many domestic and foreign companies. It is suitable for the recovery of single gold in placer gold, vein gold mines and polymetallic mines, instead of mercury plate operations. The addition of large single gold particles in the collected ore before flotation can further increase the recovery rate of gold mines, and it can also be used from gold-bearing mines. Separate single gold from flotation gold-copper concentrate and flotation gold concentrate.
