(II) Specific reasons for not implementing the original projects
1. Fuling and Jiangling: The local government adjusted its planning to the project sites, resulting in the change of land nature of the project sites of the aforesaid two projects. They had to reselect the project sites in the fringing area which is far away from the downtown. In general, transportation radius of RMX stations is about 20 km. Thus, these two projects fail to supply effectively to the urban markets, which directly give negative impact on obtaining orders, and the expected profit can not be achieved. Therefore, the Company decided not to implement the above two projects according to the actual situation.
2. Chenzhou and Zhuzhou: During the progress of the project, there are new competitors entered. Some RMX plants gave negative impacts on the local concrete market by means of lowering prices, resulting in intensified disorderly market competition. The industrial profit is low. Therefore, the Company decided not to implement the above two projects.
3. Dongchuan, Luoshan, Dawu, Hefeng, Daoxian, Xuanen: As the “prohibition of site mix” was not yet strictly implemented in the area of project sites. In recent years, the State strictly controls over real estate market, so there were less commodity building projects start construction. RMX market demand did not reach the early expectation of the Company and the expected profits will be difficult to achieve. So, the Company decided not to implement the above 6 projects.
