"In 2021, China's textile industry will enter the stage of recovery growth." Xu Yingxin said. Data show that in January-July 2021, the value added of the textile industry above the national scale increased by 8.5 year-on-year, basically returning to the level of development before the epidemic in 2019 and growing slightly.

Domestic demand for textile and clothing commodities also continued to pick up.

Xu Yingxin said that all these achievements are closely related to the textile industry's insistence on building the supply chain foundation of the industrial chain, deepening the supply-side structural reform and transformation and upgrading.

"One of the important reasons why the textile industry remains resilient and dynamic in the face of epidemic adversity is that we have hundreds of thriving industrial clusters and specialized markets across the country, and Dalang is one of the most brilliant performers." Xu Yingxin said.

After more than 40 years of vigorous development, Dalang wool is transforming and upgrading towards high quality. "I believe that under the new development pattern, Da Lang will promote each other's development through domestic and international double cycles, and will continue to rely on sustainable competitive advantages to create more brilliance."
