    API is an important part of the pharmaceutical industry and one of the core directions of China's new pharmaceutical manufacturing
    .
    It is a key link in the upstream supply chain of the pharmaceutical industry chain .
    In recent years, with the continuous accelerated development of the pharmaceutical industry, the size of China's API market has been continuously expanding
    .
    It is worth mentioning that, as the API market continues to improve due to the development of the pharmaceutical industry and is ushering in a rapid increase in volume, a large number of companies are also expanding their production capacity to further meet the demand for APIs in the pharmaceutical market
    .
    API companies have expanded production, forcing the pharmaceutical machinery industry to accelerate innovation and upgrading (Source: Pharmaceutical Network) Many API projects over 100 million yuan have started construction.
    Recently, Haixiang Pharmaceutical issued an announcement saying that it plans to establish a wholly-owned subsidiary Yichang Haixiang Pharmaceutical Co.
