Airline Economic Index Report: Shanghai Pudong, Beijing Capital, and Guangzhou Baiyun firmly rank in the top three

Release time:Apr 16, 2024 14:20 PM

An airport is the closest place to a city to the world, and the airport economy is an important engine for promoting regional economic development. On the 5th, at the 5th "Air Silk Road" International Cooperation Summit of the China International Fair for Trade in Services, the China Port Association, Beijing Airport International Technology Research Institute, and the Henan Collaborative Innovation Center for Aviation Economic Development jointly released the "China Airport Economic Development Index Report".

According to the report, Shanghai Pudong, Beijing Capital, and Guangzhou Baiyun ranked in the top three according to the overall index score, with scores of 77.79, 75.04, and 74.72 respectively, the same as last year. Shenzhen Bao'an, Chengdu Shuangliu, and Zhengzhou Xinzheng also scored above 70 points, ranking 4th to 6th. Beijing Daxing, Shanghai Hongqiao, Chongqing Jiangbei, and Hangzhou Xiaoshan rank 7th to 10th, with scores ranging from 69.63 to 67.25.

The China Airline Economic Development Index Report has been released continuously for five years. Currently, there are 89 aviation economic zones that have been clearly planned and started construction in 31 provinces across the country. The evaluation objects of this report are 39 of them, and the screening criteria are that the airports they rely on have a passenger throughput of over 4 million in 2022.

Among the 39 airspace economic zones, 17 are national level airspace economic demonstration zones. Compared with 2021, these "national teams" still have obvious advantages, with an average total index score of 65.96, higher than the total average score of all airspace economic zones, and significantly higher than the average score of 60.18 for the other 22 non national airspace economic zones, and the difference between the two has widened.

From the perspective of ranking changes, the Nanning Airport Economic Demonstration Zone showed the largest increase, rising from 27th place last year to 21st place, up 6 places; Next are Tianjin Airport Economic Zone and Wenzhou Airport Economic Zone, both ranking 17th and 28th, both rising by 5 places. The report believes that Nanning is a new member of the "national team" that has been approved for construction for less than three years. Last year, its regional influence index and green development index made significant progress. Tianjin has benefited from significant improvements in the aviation finance index and coordinated development index.

The Ningbo Airport Economic Demonstration Zone has seen a significant decline in ranking, dropping from 24th place last year to 32nd place, a decrease of 8 places; Next are Haikou and Sanya Airport Economic Zone, ranking 22nd and 34th respectively, both decreasing by 5 places. The report believes that both Haikou Airport Economic Zone and Sanya Airport Economic Zone have shown significant declines in hub driven index, regional influence index, and coordinated development index, especially in important indicators such as airport passenger and cargo transportation volume and GDP growth rate of the Airport Economic Zone. These two Airport Economic Zones have shown weak performance.

It is difficult to elevate the "top" airport economic zone due to its large size, but in 2022, the Zhengzhou Xinzheng Airport Economic Demonstration Zone advanced two places, surpassing Beijing Daxing and Shanghai Hongqiao, ranking sixth.

Hao Aimin, Dean of the School of Economics at Zhengzhou Aviation Industry Management College, analyzed that firstly, Henan Province has been making the construction of Zhengzhou International Large Cargo Aviation Hub a development goal for many years. In 2022, the cargo volume of Zhengzhou Airport reached over 600000 tons, ranking sixth in the country, an increase of nearly 20% compared to 2019 before the epidemic. Secondly, Zhengzhou Airport Area expanded its jurisdiction to 747 square kilometers last year, resulting in a significant increase in regional economic influence, policy support, and openness. Thirdly, Zhengzhou Airport is characterized by the integration of port industry and port city, with a starting point that is almost "paperless". There is no legacy problem of solving the "cage for bird" problem in the industry. For example, the introduction of Foxconn from the beginning has promoted the agglomeration of the electronic information industry and related aviation industry in the area.

In March 2013, the first batch of national level aviation economic demonstration zones was announced. By this year, China's aviation economic zone construction and development have been 10 years. The report points out that preliminary patterns have been formed in various aviation economic zones, but due to significant changes in the internal and external situation, aviation economic zones are entering the stage of "secondary entrepreneurship". In the past, the main direction was to build a platform for international exchange and trade through external circulation and exports, while in the future, we need to build an important platform that links the "dual circulation".

The report lists multiple challenges faced by the "secondary entrepreneurship" in the airport economic zone: infrastructure mismatch, rapid development of industries, homogenized competition in industrial layout and development paths, many shortcomings in civil aviation services such as multimodal transportation and "aviation+tourism", difficulties in integrating "port industry city", need to strengthen technological innovation capabilities, incomplete aviation logistics ecosystem, insufficient integration with emerging consumer demand and advanced manufacturing industry, insufficient innovation in institutional mechanisms, and so on.

The season of exploring the origin of Chinese civilization in "Museum City" on Beijing TV is currently airing. This season, with the theme of "Exploring the Origins of Chinese Civilization", museums and cultural heritage sites are the main objects of exploration. From a diverse perspective, the era value of excellent traditional Chinese culture is interpreted, and a group is formed to carry out civilization exploration from the source. The five characteristics of Chinese civilization, namely continuity, innovation, unity, inclusiveness, and peace, are vividly explained. Museum City has upgraded from exploring museums in Beijing in the first season to tracing the origins of museums nationwide. It not only adds regional richness, but also deeply showcases multiple dimensions of museums, national treasures, and historical culture, allowing audiences to have a deeper, broader, and closer sense of participation in cultural heritage. On the afternoon of the 28th, the program creation seminar was held at Beijing Radio and Television Station. In the special session of the seminar

"The big language model has already possessed the core basic abilities of artificial intelligence such as understanding, generation, logic, memory, etc." Wang Haifeng, chief technology officer of Baidu, recently presented at the WAVE SUMMIT Deep Learning Developers Conference hosted by the National Engineering Research Center for Deep Learning Technology and Applications. The academic community generally believes that deep learning has strong universality and industrial production characteristics of standardization, automation, and modularization, which will promote artificial intelligence to enter the stage of industrial production. Since 2019, the development of deep learning technology and applications has fully verified this viewpoint - the universality of deep learning technology is becoming stronger, and the standardized, automated, and modular features of deep learning platforms are becoming more and more prominent. The rise of pre trained large models has further expanded the depth and breadth of artificial intelligence applications

Facing the future, how Shenzhen will respond to challenges? The GDP of the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area has been surpassed by the Shanghai metropolitan area | Greater Bay Area | GDP

"In the past decade, Shenzhen has achieved great success, but facing the future, Shenzhen also faces great challenges. For example, last year, the GDP of the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area was surpassed by the Shanghai metropolitan area." Recently, at the publication of the "Shenzhen Over the Past Decade" series and academic seminar held by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Yang Kaizhong, Secretary of the Party Committee of the Institute of Ecological Civilization, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, spoke frankly. The Greater Bay Area of Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macao, as well as the metropolitan area of Shanghai, both have an area of approximately 56000 square kilometers and a permanent population of around 80 million people. They are both coastal cities in the south, with similar resource endowments. "In the past two years, Shenzhen has started to lag behind in two regions with similar populations and areas. If it continues to fall, it will have a negative impact on future development." Yang Kaizhong's words were somewhat anxious. Shanghai 2035 Plan

At the same time, the electoral landscape on the island has shifted from a confrontation between the blue and green powers to a three legged confrontation between blue, green, and white. Is it Hou Youyi's problem or the Kuomintang's problem? The strongest candidate Hou Youyi became the "Hou Laosan" due to personal reasons. For a long time, Hou Youyi's Kuomintang faction has had a very unclear color, and
