why are we particularly optimistic about the yangtze river delta?
, the 4th China International Import Expo opened. Three years ago, on November 5, 2018, at the opening ceremony of the first China International Import Expo held in Shanghai, the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta became a national strategy. Since the first CIIE, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui have regarded the CIIE as a "quasi-home venue" and seized the "opportunity to deliver it to the door". In several sessions of the Expo, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui have occupied the "bulk" of the number of buyers ". In order to ensure the success of the Expo, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui also carried out the "moat" operation around Shanghai, and established cooperation mechanisms such as 24-hour real-time communication between border inspection authorities in the Yangtze River Delta and liaison between main alternate airports.
Expo, looks like a "four-leaf clover". The seed of the Yangtze River Delta integration national strategy is blooming on this land ". Take the Hongqiao International Open Hub where the National Convention and Exhibition Center is located as an example. At the beginning of this year, the State Council formally approved the "Overall Plan for the Construction of the Hongqiao International Open Hub", proposing that the three provinces and one city of Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui should jointly build the "Great Hongqiao" to speed up the "Great Hongqiao" to build a strong and active growth pole in the growth triangle and a "Rainbow Bridge" connecting international and domestic market ".
"four-leaf clover" is indispensable. Shanghai plays a leading role, and Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui each have their strengths: Jiangsu's total manufacturing industry accounts for about 1/8 of the country; Zhejiang gives full play to its unique advantages such as digital economy and private economy; Anhui is actively participating in the construction of a world-class port cluster in the Yangtze River Delta, Airport clusters, etc., and expand and strengthen the Hefei metropolitan area, deepen the coordination and linkage with Shanghai, Nanjing, Hangzhou and other metropolitan areas, while giving full play to location advantages, promote the interaction between the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration and the urban agglomeration in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. The proportion of the total economic output of the three provinces and one city in the country rose from 24.1 per cent in 2018 to 24.5 per cent in the first three quarters of this year, making the role of the national economic ballast more prominent.
The integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta has become a national strategy for three years, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui have closely followed the two keys of "integration" and "high quality", focusing on "taking the lead in building a new development pattern and being a pioneer in technology and industrial innovation. The three missions of" creating a new highland for reform and opening up ", based on the strategic positioning of" one pole, three regions and one highland ", a new situation of integrated development is accelerating.
