In the vibrant month of March, when birds are singing and grasses are green, we celebrate the 109th International Women’s Day! On the afternoon of March 7, Qinhuangdao Baigong Iron & Steel Co., Ltd. hosted a 2019 Women’s Day health‑education symposium in its multi‑purpose hall. Attending the event were leaders and distinguished guests, including Mao Yanrui, Manager of the Finance Company; Li Fengjuan, Chairwoman of the Shimen Town Women’s Federation; Zhang Haibin, a mental‑health counselor from Lulong County; as well as nearly one hundred female employee representatives from various departments across the company.
Financial Company Manager Mao Yanrui, on behalf of the company, extended festive greetings to all our female colleagues and conveyed the company’s warm regards and heartfelt gratitude to those who steadfastly hold the line at their frontline posts. Wishing all our sisters good health, success in their work, and happiness with their families!

Li Fengjuan, Chairwoman of the Women’s Federation in Shimen Town, extended festive greetings to all. At the event, Di Zhenying, the company’s “Model Worker for Safe Production,” spoke, stating: “My recognition would not have been possible without the concerted efforts of our leaders and colleagues, nor without the guidance and care of leaders at every level—and certainly not without the broad platform that Baigong has provided for me. Women truly hold up half the sky! Our female employees are every bit as capable as their male counterparts; we at Baigong dare to stand shoulder to shoulder with men and strive to lead the way!”
Wu Yujin, an electrical specialist at the power plant and a representative of the female workforce, stated: “The steady progress and tangible results achieved across all aspects of the company’s operations are inseparable from the hard work of our female employees. Women often shoulder greater responsibilities in both their professional and personal lives; yet, at Baigong Steel, our female colleagues approach their duties with a sense of ownership, unwavering enthusiasm, and a strong commitment to their jobs, doing their utmost to contribute to the company’s growth.”

Finally, mental health counselor Zhang Haibin explained the dual nature of emotions: they can be both a source of well-being and a source of hardship. When managed effectively, they foster personal growth. He also provided a detailed overview of the “ABC” theory of emotion, which posits that the quality of our emotional states—whether calm or turbulent—depends on our perceptions. We should acknowledge and accept our emotional fluctuations, release excessive emotions in healthy ways, maintain a balanced mindset, and greet everyone with a smile. In addition, Teacher Zhang fielded questions from female employees on various issues they face at home and at work, earning unanimous praise from all attendees.

This mental health symposium helped us cultivate a positive and optimistic outlook on life, deepen our understanding of mental health issues, enhance the psychological resilience of our female employees, and raise everyone’s awareness of health. The company presented holiday gifts to all female staff, and the event concluded successfully amid laughter and cheerful conversation.
