In order to facilitate improved rolling of the section having significantly reduced thickness, the method according has the following steps: a) bringing part of the completely solidified cast strand or intermediate strip in the conveying direction (F) of the cast strand or intermediate strip in front of the shears; b) placing a first blade of the shears onto the one surface of the cast strand or intermediate strip and placing a second blade of the shears onto the other surface of the cast strand or intermediate strip and performing a cut by carrying out a relative movement of the two blades, wherein at least one of the blades is in a pushed-forward position; c) upset forging or upset forging with stamping a wedge-shaped contour on the end of the cast strand.
