[North International Signed Uzbekistan Rail Supply Project]During the first China-Central Asia Summit Forum, witnessed by Kudratov, Minister of Investment, Industry and Trade of Uzbekistan, Mahkamov, Minister of Communications, and Wang Qiang, Vice Mayor of Xi'an, the general manager of North International Cooperation Co., Ltd. Shan Jun signed a 130,000-ton rail supply project contract with Uzbekistan Railways President Hasilov. In recent years, with the development of the country's economy, Uzbekistan has increased interconnection and cooperation with neighboring countries, such as the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan Railway, Uzbekistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-Pacific Corridor and other construction projects are actively advancing, so the demand for railway equipment such as tracks urgent. Uzbekistan Highly recognizes the strength of North International, and is willing to use this project to start in-depth cooperation with North International. The two parties also signed a framework agreement on railway wagon production capacity cooperation. Edit/Ma Xue
On July 15, 2026, the Shuzhi Hydrogen Energy Machinery Innovation Park started construction in Dongxihu District, Wuhan, with an expansion of 120 acres. The total investment has not been disclosed, and the plan is to form an annual production capacity of 100 sets of hydrogen compressor sleds, 1GW PEM electrolysis cells, and 1.75GW ALK electrolysis cells for assembly and testing. The previous 55 acres of the park have been put into use as a data intelligence service center and a hydrogen production and refueling equipment quality inspection center. The new park covers the entire chain of research and development, intelligent manufacturing, and testing, deeply integrating AI and digital twin technologies. This move marks the official launch of the construction of China Petrochemical's hydrogen energy equipment industry cluster. Editor/Cheng Liting
On July 9, 2026, Fulide Precision Cleaning and Recycling Service Base started construction in Optics Valley, with a total investment of 203 million yuan and an area of 21 acres. From signing the contract in April to starting construction in July, it took less than 3 months, and the plan is to complete and put into operation within 12 months. After reaching production capacity, we can provide 30000 pieces of semiconductor cleaning services per month, covering supporting needs such as ceramic melting regeneration and equipment maintenance. Previously, core components such as the Optics Valley etching machine needed to be sent to other places for cleaning, resulting in long turnover cycles and high logistics costs. After the project is put into operation, this gap will be filled, and the Huazhong Pan Semiconductor industry chain will be more complete and efficient. Editor/Cheng Liting
