During the National Two Sessions in 2024, Zhao Minge, Deputy to the National People's Congress and Party Committee Secretary and Chairman of the Shougang Group, gave interviews to more than ten media outlets including the Xinhua News Agency, CCTV, China Economic Weekly, China Economic Times, Beijing Daily, Beijing TV, Securities Daily, China Metallurgical News, China Industry News, World Metals, and Beijing Youth Daily. From the perspective of implementing the national strategy, serving the development of the capital city, and promoting the healthy development of the steel industry, he introduced Shougang's main work in technological innovation leadership, digital empowerment, low-carbon green development, building one highland and one fulcrum in recent years, and the development and main measures of the enterprise in the future. He also answered questions that the media has paid close attention to, such as how to develop new high-quality productive forces, how to promote the upgrading of traditional industries, and how to create new landmarks for urban revival. With the title "New Forces Draw New Pictures", Zhao Minge and nine deputies to the National People's Congress and members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference gathered in the Dialogue column of the CCTV Finance and Economics Channel, and were interviewed by the Xinhua News Agency on how to develop new high-quality productive forces in the development of industrial parks. As a member of the Beijing Municipal Delegation to the Second Session of the 14th National People's Congress, together with several representatives of the Beijing delegation, he received a collective interview from Chinese and foreign media.

The government work report puts "vigorously promoting the construction of a modern industrial system and accelerating the development of new high-quality productive forces" at the top priority of this year's government work tasks. New high-quality productive forces are an important focus of the National Two Sessions. On March 7th, Xinhuanet published the article "Xinhua News of the National Two Sessions: From 'Internet+' to 'Artificial Intelligence+', China's Big Market is Moving to the 'New'", in which Zhao Minge said that the development of new high-quality productive forces will bring new opportunities for enterprise transformation: "We will promote the upgrading of traditional industries as a whole, and rely on innovation to achieve kinetic energy conversion, consolidating the foundation for the development of new kinetic energy." Xinhuanet cited Zhao Mingge's speech in the article "Uniting with One Heart, Moving Forward Again and Heading High for the Future – 2024 National Two Sessions Tour" issued on March 10th.

"From the perspective of new high-quality productive forces, it is necessary to export services and efficiency through management innovation and business model innovation." On March 10th, Zhao Minge explained the vivid practice of new high-quality productive forces in Shougang in an exclusive interview with a reporter from the Xinhua News Agency. He said that the holding of the Beijing Winter Olympics has brought historic opportunities to Shougang, forming a huge space for industrial development. Shougang Park has formed a leading industrial system featuring the science fiction industry. Internet 3.0, artificial intelligence, and aerospace have developed together, forming a "1+3+X" high-tech industrial layout. It has formed a national sci-fi industry consortium, established an investment fund for the sci-fi industry, established the Global Science Fiction Industry Awards, established ten technology platforms, and created an industrial service content manual with 21 categories in six categories. He expressed his hope to contribute to the construction of the Beijing International Science and Technology Innovation Center in this way at Shougang Park.

China Industry News published an article entitled "Deputy to National People's Congress Zhao Minge: Accurately Supporting the Development of New High-quality Productive Forces in Old Industrial Areas in Urban Areas in the "Special Issue of the National Two Sessions" on March 8th. The article reported the suggestions brought by Zhao Minge, who believes that old industrial areas in urban areas have unique advantages such as the contiguous development and super-large-scale space of industrial relics, and can provide application scenarios, innovative resources, and an entrepreneurial ecology for strategic emerging industries and future industries. Accurately supporting the development of old industrial areas in urban areas can effectively promote the accelerated formation of new high-quality productive forces. It is recommended to support old industrial areas in urban areas in order to create future industrial pilot areas and support the creation of new consumption scenarios in such areas.

On March 8th, the China Economic News Network published the article "National People's Congress Deputy and Shougang Group Party Committee Secretary and Chairman Zhao Minge: Suggestions to Improve Supervision of Supply Chain Finance Industry" was published, which explains Zhao Minge's suggestions for the development of the supply chain finance industry. He believes that "due to the lack of unified regulatory standards, regulatory authorities in different regions may have differences in taking regulatory measures, which is not conducive to maintaining the unity and fairness of the market. Therefore, more refined regulatory measures are needed." He suggests that with the support of the relevant state ministries and commissions, a rating mechanism for core enterprises to build their own platforms should be established to improve the supervision of the supply chain financial industry.

Focusing on "promoting the low-carbon and green transformation of the iron and steel industry", on March 6th, China Metallurgical News published the suggestions brought by Zhao Minge. The first is to establish a national low-carbon technology innovation center for steel, supporting special funds for scientific and technological innovation in the fields of green and low-carbon, digital intelligence and interdisciplinary integration, forming a scientifically oriented basic research, cutting-edge exploratory research, and market-oriented applied research system to break through the blockages of innovation chains and industrial chains. The second is to introduce a package of targeted policies on production capacity governance, technological innovation, finance, taxation, and human resources to comprehensively promote the green and low-carbon transformation and high-quality development of the steel industry. The third is to guide and encourage the comprehensive utilization of steel slag and other solid waste resources, increase efforts to promote industry coordination, and introduce relevant policies to provide support and guidance for the application of steel slag in the building materials industry, further establishing specific standards for promoting steel slag application.

On March 7th, China Metallurgical News published an exclusive interview report on its front page. Focusing on "promoting the healthy development of the steel industry", Zhao Minge suggested that the export tax rebate for high-end steel products should be restored to promote the stable and healthy development of the industry; reduce the tax burden on domestic iron ore to enhance the resilience of the industrial chain and the ability to guarantee iron ore resources; and optimize the tax policy for scrap steel to promote the healthy development of the industry.

"The high-tech, high-efficiency, and high-quality characteristics of the development of new high-quality productive forces are the strategic choice for the high-quality development of the steel industry." On March 6th, Beijing Daily published the suggestions of representatives on "new high-quality productive forces" under the theme "faster innovation, stronger momentum". As Zhao Minge said, "In recent years, the development pattern of the steel industry has undergone significant changes. Faced with the dual pressure of overcapacity and structural differentiation, the steel industry must take the path of high-end, intelligent, and green transformation in order to keep up with the pace of the times." Zhao Minge believes that the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries should view the market demand from the perspective of high-quality development, define high-end leading products in industry competition, define characteristic products in demand-side growth, define service capabilities based on the satisfaction of leading enterprises in the downstream industrial chain, improve product quality and added value, and reduce energy consumption, thereby creating competitive advantages and winning development initiatives.

During the National Two Sessions, the Beijing Youth Daily, Modern Express, Xinmin Evening News, and Shenzhen Special Zone Daily jointly responded by inviting representatives from the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, Yangtze River Delta, and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area to offer advice and suggestions, and discuss the "new" forces. Focusing on how to develop new high-quality productive forces, Zhao Minge said that as a representative of traditional industrial enterprises, three things should be focused upon. First, increase investment in R&D and promote technological innovation. In recent years, industries such as automobiles, home appliances, shipbuilding, and machinery have had new requirements for steel materials, while Shougang has maintained a high level of R&D investment and produced many market debut products. Digital empowerment is the second major task to be accomplished. One of the most important ways to promote the upgrading and transformation of traditional industries is new industrialization. In Shougang, the new type of digitalization is to provide more empowering scenarios for digitalization, enabling the use of digital methods in service formats, management formats, and manufacturing processes. Third, low-carbon and green development. The new high-quality productive forces include green productivity. For the steel industry, low-carbon emission reduction is not an easy task, which requires long-term efforts to produce products with lower carbon emissions and contribute to the development of green and low-carbon new high-quality productive forces.

"This precious resource has left a wealth of industrial space for future development, and described an imaginative development prospect for creating a new landmark of 'Together for a Shared Future' revival of the capital city." On March 6th, the Beijing delegation held an open group meeting and gave a collective interview to domestic and foreign media. When answering a reporter from China Arab TV, Zhao Minge said, "How will Shougang create more characteristic IPs and popular check-in spots in the future?" The New Shougang area was born because of the Summer Olympics and prospered because of the Winter Olympics, and industrial relics and Winter Olympics heritage complement each other, showing the unique charm of the landscape fusion and ice and fire intertwined. At present, Shougang has gradually formed two development paths. The first is to build the Shougang Highland of the International Center for Science & Technology Innovation in Beijing, accelerate the development of new high-quality productive forces, and form a "1+3+X" high-tech industrial structure; the second is to build the Shougang fulcrum of Beijing as an international consumption center city, and ignite the heat and vitality of western Beijing.

It is reported that the Dialogue column of CCTV, on which Zhao Minge is a guest, will be broadcast on the CCTV Finance Channel at 21:30 on March 16th.
