Will things get better after 2015? I’ve always had that question
Thread Content
Today, while discussing with some friends, we talked about the sluggishness this year and the difficult winter ahead. We also looked ahead and said that things would improve a lot in 2016, with rising oil prices and various policies coming into effect, which should lead to a significant rebound next year. However, I disagree with this view. I switched from the construction industry to the chemical industry in February 2014; I haven’t been in the chemical industry for long, but I don’t have much optimism regarding the overall industrial economy. The reason is that in the past, the development of the industrial sector relied heavily on substantial investment, but now policies aim to reduce investment of that kind. This means that measures will be taken to prevent such investment, allowing those companies that lack strength and try to take advantage of loopholes to fend for themselves. It can be seen as a reshuffle, a rebirth through transformation. So although 2015 seems particularly tough, domestically, various industries are being forced to change their approaches. In other words, even if things improve significantly in 2016, it will only be those companies that have managed to rebirth that fare well. This economic adjustment in our country will cause many old-fashioned companies to fail, some unbalanced joint ventures to collapse, and some large companies to undergo transformation. I think this change will take a long time to unfold. After this reshuffle, I believe there will be many changes in the chemical industry. I’m not sure whether there will still be periods of heavy investment in that sector, but I think when the design lifespan of existing buildings expires and those buildings become dangerous, that will be the time for a revival in the construction industry. I believe the chemical industry will experience something similar at that time.
Do we have to wait until these devices reach the end of their useful life?
The elders say it will take two or three years
Illness comes like a collapsing mountain, but it goes away slowly, like thread being drawn out; it won’t disappear that quickly
Many companies don’t even have any projects for which they can provide quotes; they’ll still have no work next year as well
There’s no difference in this industry; it comes down to **the socio-economic control** and how things are managed
Yes, it’s clearly harder to get things done this year compared to last year
It’s really hard to explain such things; all one can say is that there’s always a way when you reach the mountain
The same doubts: the situation is poor, there are no salary increases or bonuses, and it’s hard to hold on any longer
Survival of the fittest – everything will pass!
