Since the theme of learning and implementing Xi Jinping Thoughts on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era was launched, the Party Committee of HQCC has focused on the general requirements of “learning ideas, strengthening party spirit, emphasizing practice, and making new achievements” and targeting the objectives and tasks of the theme education, deepening theoretical understanding and gathering momentum with a correct political stand. The more you learn, the more you know, and the more you do. And we aim to truly promote the theme education so that people can remember and put it into practice.

First, highlight early deployment and consolidate the foundation of learning.

Early awareness: The company’s Party Committee immediately held the mobilization and deployment meeting for the theme education to have a deep understanding of the significance of the theme education, accurately grasp its objectives and requirements, and fully implement the arrangements. Early planning: The company’s Party Committee carefully planned and formulated the work program and research program and set up a leading group and a leading group office. It held a meeting to promote and implement various tasks in detail to ensure coverage to all party members, leaders, and workers. The meeting also included learning and in-depth discussion of the important instructions given by General Secretary Xi Jinping when he inspected Jiangsu. Early action: The company made good use of online platforms such as the “Xuexi Power” APP and WeChat official accounts to learn the “three sessions and one lesson”, theoretical learning sessions, and “red night school”, highlighting early and profound learning.

Second, highlight “refined” discussion and study to learn more effectively.

The company’s Party Committee developed and refined 20 key tasks in 5 aspects based on the work program, clarifying the “task outline”, “road map”, and “timetable”. Adhere to full coverage: The company’s Party Committee covers all party groups, departments, and teams using the “three sessions and one lesson”, theme party activity, “the first issue”, and special theoretical sessions with activities of reading the classics and understanding the principles, setting the reading class on the front-line to cover all aspects and all employees. The “red night school” carries out collective reading once a week and a thematic seminar once a month, and everyone will give a party lecture. 200 people participated in the study and wrote 30 pieces of study experience. The expatriate team of the Yangkou port carried out online learning using WeChat, Tencent Meeting, and other software based on their own conditions. Insist on profound and refined learning: The company’s Party Committee conducted 4 special theoretical studies, and the secretary and team leaders took the lead in learning. They promoted learning breadth with self-learning, using the “Xuexi Power” APP, WeChat official accounts, and other platforms to strengthen the usual self-learning. They promoted learning enthusiasm through collective discussion, setting special reading classes on Xi Jinping Thoughts on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era and other books, and exchanging learning experiences. The Party Committee planned to jointly carry out learning activities with the sister unit of Litian Terminal in the revolutionary bases to enhance the learning depth through joint construction and study. Strengthen publicity: The company’s Party Committee publicized the theme education through online and offline platforms to stimulate the enthusiasm of all party members and create an enthusiastic learning atmosphere in the company, making it prevail in every corner of life through the update of exhibition boards and windows.

Highlight problem orientation: The company’s Party Committee integrates research with its high-quality development, staff’s urgent problems, and expectations. It listens to suggestions, identifies problems, and find shortcomings through staff forum and on-site research to strengthen theoretical learning and guide practice, solving problems through research. Coordinate production and operation: Faced with the product return of 4 customers and price reduction of renewed customers, the Party Committee quickly s adjusted its tactics, resolutely holding on to the old customers and never letting go until the goal is achieved. Finally, we reached a consensus and cooperated with CNOOC. Immediately “go out” and find new customers in the upstream and downstream industry chain through meetings: Leaders led the team to attend more than 10 industry meetings, visited big customers, communicated with nearly 20 enterprises with intention, and dealt with more than 9 cooperation projects. We have applied for a caustic soda in-warehouse and built a mainstream export base along the Yangtze River to enhance our core competitiveness. We have actively explored new modes of bio-diesel export and financial pledge of warehouse receipt. The monthly ship operation volume of Yangkou Port doubled from 14 ships to 30 ships. The expatriate team completed the task of “four departures and four arrivals” at berths G1-G5 through continuous training and assessment of new employees after four months of coordination, improvement, and communication with the back office, which greatly shortened the berthing cycle and improved the efficiency of loading and unloading. Be “people-centered”: The company continued “Serving the Masses” activities. In addition to holding one-to-one Chinese medicine consultations and one-to-one nutritionist consultations, the company also invited its firefighter (former professional fitness coach) to conduct happy fitness and fat reduction training for employees in batches. It has also set up a table tennis room, formed badminton teams, built an intelligent pantry with efficient water purification, warm water, boiling water, and timing, and 4 fast charging piles, carried out military training for all employees, comforted students attending the high school and college entrance examinations in 2023, and plan monthly movie viewing activities to enhance the sense of gain, happiness, and safety of all employees.
