After perseverance and great efforts, we finally concluded the first contract in China. As the Chinese saying goes ＂A good beginning is half of the success.＂ In the over 10 years after that, 57 Andritz Soutec Tailored-blank laser welding lines were sold in China market, which represents over 2/3 market share. For me it is one of the most successful stories.展开更多
