Development course of WISCO Jiangbei Iron and Steel Co., Ltd.

Wuhan is the birthplace of modern iron and steel industry in China. 1890, Zhang Zhidong, Governor of Huguang in Qing Dynasty, founded Hanyang Iron Works, the first large-scale iron and steel complex in China, which was regarded by the west as a symbol of China's awakening. Its products have been exported to the United States, Japan and some countries in Southeast Asia.

1937, the July 7th Incident broke out in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. In order to meet the needs of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the equipment of Hanyang Iron Works has been relocated in Dadukou, Chongqing. On the eve of the fall of Wuhan on June 24th, 1938, the equipment that could not be dismantled was blown up.

After liberation, in order to develop the national economy, the central government established Wuhan Iron and Steel Company, the first and largest steel joint venture in New China, in Qingshan District, Wuhan. Wuhan Municipal Government has built Hanyang Iron and Steel Plant in Hanyang area.
