Cai Dianwei, chairman of Hunan Construction Investment Group (HCIG), led a delegation to the China International Contractors Association (CHINCA) for negotiation with President Fang Qiuchen of CHINCA on November 4. They had in-depth exchanges on industry development trends, key market layout, business expansion, and enterprise management strategies.

Fang Qiuchen warmly welcomed Cai Dianwei and his delegation, expressed appreciation and congratulations on the achievements of HCIG in its international business in recent years, and highlighted the current situation of the international engineering contracting industry. 

He hoped that HCIG will make full use of platforms such as the China-Africa Economic and Trade Expo and the China-Africa Deep Economic and Trade Cooperation Pilot Zone, and seize the opportunities brought by urbanization, industrialization, and regional integration in Africa to cultivate the African market and tap into the potential for cooperation with Africa. Besides, relying on professional and talent advantages, it will make efforts to explore emerging markets. 

CHINCA is willing to play the role of a bridge and link in the industry, and provide services to enterprises in such aspects as business promotion in key countries, professional consulting, and talent training by taking advantage of its own platforms, resources, and information, promoting the high-quality development of HCIG’s international business.

Cai Dianwei thanked CHINCA for its long-term care and support to the group, and provided a detailed introduction to the development history, domestic and international market layout, as well as international business status and planning of the group. 

He said that, as an important force and pacesetter in Hunan’s economic and trade cooperation with foreign countries, in recent years, the group has actively participated in the joint construction of the “Belt and Road Initiative”. Relying on national platforms for Africa such as the China-Africa Economic and Trade Expo and the China-Africa Deep Economic and Trade Cooperation Pilot Zone, it has made efforts to expand the international market by leveraging its advantages in the whole industry chain, and achieved sustained growth in the scale of international business. 

In the future, the group will enhance its corporate brand image and accelerate the development of its overall business through the high-quality development of its overseas business. It will increase efforts to develop its international business, explore new professional fields, and lay out new international markets. It expects to continue to receive business guidance and assistance from CHINCA.
