Since Mr. Zhang Jian founded Dasheng yarn mill to save the country, the textile industry has a history of more than 100 years. High end textile is one of the "3 + 3" key industries in Nantong. Nantong textile products are sold well in more than 150 countries and regions around the world. The scale of high-end home textiles ranks the third in the world and the first in China. In 2019, online and offline transactions will reach more than 220 billion yuan, accounting for nearly 50% of the country. Wang Hui said that Nantong is at the intersection of the belt and road, the Yangtze River economic belt and the Yangtze River Delta integration development, and the major infrastructure construction will promote Nantong's home textile industry to deeply integrate into the global industrial chain, supply chain and value chain. With the further promotion of the national strategy of Yangtze River Delta integration and regional infrastructure co construction and sharing, Nantong will form a closer industrial connection and urban effect with Shanghai in the process of undertaking the industrial gradient transfer of Shanghai. As a key and well-known university in the field of textile in China, Donghua University has a deep relationship with Nantong. It has been in close contact with the high-end textile industry of our city for a long time. In particular, it has extensive cooperation space with Nantong in the aspects of design, fabric, printing and dyeing, finishing and other technical improvement. We hope that Donghua University and other experts and professors will pay more attention to Nantong, and help Nantong textile industry transform and upgrade, become stronger, better and bigger.

In line with the national strategy of Yangtze River Delta integration development, Donghua University will further strengthen cooperation with Nantong University, give full play to the University's national scientific research platform and key laboratory functions, strengthen the supply of high-level science and technology, and promote the industrial upgrading of Nantong.
