Grounded in the fields of major national infrastructure and comprehensive urban development, both parties will jointly create a new paradigm of government-enterprise cooperation. They will deeply integrate Horizon CD's professional capabilities in project operations, structured financing, and government-enterprise resource matching with CRCEG Third Company's notable advantages in engineering implementation, resource integration, and government relations, jointly building a new integrated strategic synergy system spanning "investment-construction-operation." Through innovative cooperation mechanisms, they will strengthen risk sharing and long-term benefit sharing, and work with government platforms to achieve sustainable advancement and value maximization of major projects, setting a new benchmark for government-enterprise cooperation.

Leveraging the deep heritage of their respective groups in financing business cooperation and credit management, and working in concert with CRCEG Third Company, the parties will fully integrate industrial scenarios, match service demands, and integrate supply chain system resources, breaking down barriers upstream and downstream of the industrial chain and reducing operational costs and financing thresholds across the entire chain. Through innovative financial instruments and collaboration models, they will efficiently match the complex needs of core links such as equipment turnover, raw material procurement, and engineering construction, enhance overall supply chain efficiency and resilience, drive the industry toward standardization, intensification, and sustainability, and jointly shape a new, efficient, collaborative, and innovation-driven industrial ecosystem.

Relying on Horizon CD's comprehensive strength in global strategic deployment and localized overseas operations, as well as CRCEG Third Company's experience in international engineering general contracting and construction capabilities, both parties will jointly advance in-depth development of international infrastructure markets in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and other Belt and Road regions. Through a diversified, highly synergistic joint overseas expansion model, they will achieve an organic combination of China's construction capabilities and international industrial resources, build global competitiveness with comprehensive risk control and deep localized operations, and jointly enhance international market influence and discourse power.

This strategic cooperation is not only a powerful alliance of resources and business, but also a key measure by both parties, based on shared vision and strategic complementarity, to promote the transformation and upgrading of the infrastructure industry under the new development pattern. In the future, both parties will focus on three strategic directions: domestic government-enterprise project synergy, co-building of the industrial finance ecosystem, and diversified expansion in global markets. They will deepen collaboration across multiple dimensions, including key project construction and project investment and financing. Through mutual embedding of capabilities and value co-creation, they will jointly build a new paradigm for high-quality development in the infrastructure sector, continuously empowering China's construction to advance toward a new stage of intelligence, sustainability, and globalization.
