On June 16th, Baoshan District signed contracts for major projects in the second quarter of 2023, with a total investment of over 16 billion yuan for 36 industrial projects, covering emerging strategic industries such as biomedicine, advanced materials, robotics and intelligent manufacturing, and new generation information technology. Among them, the Peninsula 1919 Fashion Technology Industrial Park with a total investment of about 1.5 billion yuan has been launched, marking the entry of the 26 square kilometer Wusong Innovation City into the fast lane of planning, development, and construction.

At the event, 14 district level characteristic industrial parks were awarded licenses and will work together to accelerate the construction of science and technology innovation clusters. The District Investment Promotion Office has jointly signed a tripartite strategic cooperation agreement with the State Intellectual Property Administration and the Municipal Association for the Promotion of Productive Services, which means that Baoshan District's global investment circle will further expand.

In terms of strategic positioning around "main battlefield, main urban area, and model area", Baoshan will fully leverage its comprehensive and comparative advantages, and firmly promote high-quality transformation and development. One is to strengthen confidence, enhance the combat effectiveness of high-quality development, play the "university card" well, and deepen school enterprise cooperation. The second is to have strong determination and amplify the leading force of the main force. Play the "big enterprise card" well and strengthen the construction of industrial ecology. Third, adhere to perseverance and expand the multi-dimensional regional supply force.

The Peninsula 1919 Fashion Technology Industrial Park, located on the north bank of the Wusong River, was formerly known as the Eighth Cotton Factory. During its heyday, Shanghai Cotton Eighth Factory had tens of thousands of employees and was one of the largest textile factories in Shanghai at that time. In the 1990s, the traditional textile industry gradually withdrew from the historical stage. In order to reap long-term benefits, all parties have decided to retain the factory area and transform it into a cultural and creative park. Due to the large renovation area, the park was divided into two parts, and the focus of the first phase of the project was on the western area. After years of operation, the park has gradually gathered artist resident studios represented by the Hongfang Art and Design Center.

The eastern region launched this time is positioned as a "fashion+technology" industrial highland, and will build a multi-functional science and technology innovation comprehensive park with scientific research headquarters, standard office, and living facilities, integrating four major functions: fashion industry venture capital services, textile new material research and development, smart supply chain technology, and fashion consumption new technology.

The park is invested by Shanghai Xinghai Fashion Real Estate Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Oriental International Co., Ltd., and constructed and operated by Shanghai Wuling Creative Culture and Art Development Co., Ltd. Tong Jisheng, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of Dongfang International Co., Ltd., stated that he will fully leverage the advantages of industry, resources, and platforms to help build a new model of urban construction.

According to the plan, the park will integrate standalone offices, street commercial properties, and talent apartments, achieving a multi-objective integration of industrial resource exploration, public resource optimization, and waterfront space creation. After completion, white-collar workers in the park can come downstairs and encounter the green garden, and they can also directly connect to the waterfront space along the newly added north-south public passage. The inclusive and ever-changing, crisscrossing space reshapes the scale of production, life, and ecology, and will also stimulate the innovative vitality of the park.

Relying on leading enterprises to strengthen industrial clusters

Many enterprises face a common problem - single point technology often cannot solve the challenges faced in development, and integrating resources is time-consuming and laborious, making it difficult to achieve on its own. Based on the 2023 comprehensive innovation reform unveiling task book of the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Science and Technology, Baoshan District is exploring a "multi subject and full chain innovation consortium mechanism". Among them, for industries with high agglomeration, the focus will be on the driving role of leading enterprises, promoting the formation of strong alliances and innovation ecosystems such as "big" leading "small". For example, relying on Baowu Group's strong resource linking ability and leading role in core technology research, we will promote the creation of a metal new material innovation consortium led by Baowu.

In this context, the target of major projects signed in the second quarter of this year is clearer. In this signing project, on the one hand, key projects such as Baosteel Engineering Headquarters will be introduced, and on the other hand, high-end medical device production base projects, high-end CNC machine tool projects, and special new materials projects will be introduced to continuously expand and strengthen emerging industries, and promote the development of manufacturing towards high-end, intelligent, and green development.

Expanding Development Space through Institutional Innovation

Regional transformation cannot be achieved without institutional innovation. Only by strengthening coordinated promotion, forming a working force, deepening cooperation and coordination between central and local governments, and improving the coordination mechanism of urban areas, can we expand development space through institutional innovation. In this signed project, the transformation project of the main plant area of Wusong Gas Plant and the transformation project of special steel area 01-03 are typical cases of central local cooperation.

Taking the transformation project of Special Steel Area 01-03, which plans to build a super high-rise office building, as an example, the Baoshan District Development and Reform Commission has specially arranged a dedicated window person to be responsible for investment filing guidance, encouraging project units to implement a credit commitment system. When handling land procedures, it is necessary to handle the investment project approval and construction application procedures of the enterprise in advance, greatly reducing the approval time, ensuring that the project filing and construction application are completed within one day, and obtaining the land boundary confirmation form, successfully achieving "only one run".

The Wusong Gas Plant, established in 1938, made significant contributions to the city's gas production, distribution, and supply. With the acceleration of urban development, the complete shutdown of factories is facing functional transformation. Due to its location within the largest industrial heritage preservation neighborhood in the city, institutional design particularly needs to balance landscape protection, renewal and utilization, and transformation and development. After multiple investigations and discussions, the new appearance of the old factory area has gradually emerged.

According to the plan, the main plant area of Wusong Gas Plant will focus on the new energy industry, introduce new energy enterprise research and development, build research and development laboratories, introduce new research institutes, and accelerate the construction of an international first-class energy innovation center. The relevant person in charge stated that entering the energy industry is based on the overall consideration of the future development of Wusong Innovation City. It is better to extend, supplement, and expand the chain, which not only promotes the revitalization of the old industrial base, but also adds assistance to the acceleration of the construction of a green and low-carbon transformation model area in Baoshan District.
