Diversified and large scale development of paper enterprises

         After 40 years of reform and development, great changes have taken place in the enterprise structure of the paper industry. The free competition mechanism has gradually diversified the capital structure of China's paper industry. The proportion of private enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan funded enterprises in the paper and paper products industry has increased from scratch. From 2008 to 2016, the proportion of state-owned and state-owned holding enterprises has decreased from 4.41% to 1.9% The number of private enterprises increased from 80.0% to 80.5%, to 3939, and the number of foreign-funded enterprises, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan enterprises increased from 15.59% to 17.5%, to 858.

It is obvious from the fixed assets investment of various ownership enterprises that the investment of private holding enterprises has become the absolute main force. From 2008 to 2016, the paper and paper products industry added 1.81 trillion yuan of investment in fixed assets, of which the investment of private holding enterprises reached 1.41 trillion yuan, accounting for 78%.

      The paper industry is a process production mode. The continuous production and efficient operation of the paper production line require different levels and technical personnel to operate and maintain. With the continuous increase of new paper projects, a large number of employment opportunities are provided for the society. In 2008, the number of employees in China's paper and paper products industry was 594000. In 2017, the number of employees increased to 1271100, and 677000 in the past ten years. At the same time, the paper industry has a strong correlation with other industries, which fully extends the employment chain. From high-level scientific and technological talents to ordinary technicians, including local rural personnel, can obtain employment opportunities, effectively alleviating the local employment pressure.
