According to the current epidemic prevention policy, we should consider the current situation that most of Shanghai are closed and controlled areas in the next two weeks, and Huaming may also be the voice of most manufacturing enterprises. Therefore, under the condition of safety and control, we hope to restore some logistics” .
At present, Shanghai is taking effective measures to improve the level of accurate epidemic prevention through zoning, classification and grid management. When the epidemic situation will be reversed is still the key factor determining the operating performance of enterprises in the second quarter.

At present, China’s orders in the second quarter were better than last year, but how to produce still depends on the epidemic control. If the epidemic in Shanghai is further controlled in the short term, the performance in the second quarter of this year should be more optimistic. ” Xiao Yi told reporters.
