Li Jialing said that the signing of this syndicated loan not only opens a new stage of business cooperation among the five units of banks and enterprises but also builds a new bridge for financial peers in Shandong and Yunnan and Weiqiao Pioneering Group to win together. Looking to the future, Minsheng Bank will work with partners such as Construction Bank, Agricultural Bank, and Fudian Bank, who share the same goals, to closely follow the development needs of Weiqiao Pioneering Group and provide a comprehensive set of financial services.

    Liu Yin, President of Fudian Bank, said that Fudian Bank has always attached great importance to cooperation with Weiqiao Pioneering Group.

Looking to the future, Fudian Bank looks forward to further deepening cooperation with Weiqiao Pioneering Group.

    Bao Jianjun, Deputy Branch Manager of China Construction Bank Shandong Branch, said that for a long time, Construction Bank has grown and developed together with Weiqiao Pioneering Group, actively providing comprehensive financial services. Cooperation in the field of new financing has also been continuously deepened, with the successful implementation of multiple emerging businesses such as offshore syndicated loans and financial leasing. The financing channels have become richer, and the financing costs have been continuously reduced. As a state-owned large commercial bank, Construction Bank has fully played the role of the main force in serving the real economy and the stabilizer in maintaining financial stability, making greater contributions to the development of Shandong's economy.

Liu Yanjun, Deputy Branch Manager of Agricultural Bank of China Shandong Branch, said that the cooperation between Agricultural Bank and Weiqiao Pioneering Group started in the 1980s. For more than 30 years, the two sides have been dependent on each other and never left each other. In recent years, Agricultural Bank has paid more attention to cooperation with Weiqiao Pioneering Group, upgrading the group to a top customer of the head office and fully supporting the development of the enterprise in the fields of scientific and technological innovation and green low-carbon.
