How long does it take to apply for a dangerous goods transportation permit? What certificates should be issued, what procedures should be completed, and which departments should be contacted? In order to ensure seamless integration of all aspects, Quan Juan, who is in her 50s, went to the emergency management department of Qingpu District to consult in detail about these issues before formally handling the procedures, and rehearsed each step of the procedures in advance. "Scheduling nodes and timing in advance is essential to ensure that the company's business operations are not disconnected during the migration process."

Quan Juan is not the person in charge of the dangerous goods transportation company, but the director of the Enterprise Service Center in Shanghai New City Economic Zone. Previously, a company engaged in liquefied gas transportation business had to relocate from other areas to Qingpu. Due to the special business field, the relocation process involved many procedures for cancellation and change of permits. "All the details have been discussed, but the company still has concerns: during the migration process, if there is a gap in the validity period of some permit procedures, one end will be cancelled and the other end will not be completed yet, there will be significant safety hazards and legal risks in conducting business. In order to ensure the company's peace of mind for relocation, our investment team consulted and processed the procedures in advance for the company. After two weeks of busy work, the transportation company finally completed the migration smoothly. Now, this company has become one of the major taxpayers in the Shanghai New City Economic Zone.".

Kuanqian consults information and handles procedures for dangerous goods transportation companies, which is a microcosm of the considerate services provided by the "shop assistants" in the Shanghai New City Economic Zone to enterprises. The reporter learned that as an economic community that has been established for 30 years, Shanghai New City Economic Zone has continuously transformed its service concept in recent years. From the early "selling factories" to the current "selling services", it has become the "mother family" of many enterprises.

The Shanghai New City Economic Zone, located in Zhaoxiang, Qingpu and adjacent to National Highway 318, was established in 1993. Chen Xueyun, General Manager of Shanghai New City Investment Co., Ltd., told reporters that the so-called "new city" does not have the same meaning as the current "five new cities", meaning "building a new city for agglomeration industries". At that time, there was not only one economic community named after "new city" in Shanghai. Due to the radiation effect of undertaking the development of Dahongqiao, coupled with transportation arteries such as Shanghai Nanjing, Shanghai Hangzhou, and Shanghai Qingping Expressway crisscrossing its surroundings, the Shanghai New City Economic Zone has obvious geographical advantages. Since its establishment, it has made a name for itself in the field of private economic development.

"At that time, a batch of standardized factory buildings were constructed, with an initial planned area of 350 acres. Later, the actual construction area continued to expand. By 1995, the factory buildings on more than a thousand acres of land in the first district of the new city were 'fully occupied'. Subsequently, the second and third districts of the new city were gradually developed, with a development area of about 8000 acres at one point." Chen Xueyun told reporters. However, as the focus of regional economic development in Qingpu and even Shanghai gradually shifted from quantity to quality and from extensive to intensive, the idea of solely relying on area and factory building to develop industries is no longer sustainable, and a number of "economic communities" including "new cities" are facing transformation. "By 2003, the third district of the new city was under the management of Qingpu Industrial Park; in 2015, the second district of the new city was included in the Shanghai Industrial Park Transformation Pilot, and in 2017, it was included in the core area of the Shixi Software Information Park. The reduction in land and factory area in the park has raised higher requirements for our service quality."

After the second and third districts were gradually separated, the location advantage of the New City Economic Zone still exists, but "selling factories" is clearly not the focus. Fei Ping, Deputy General Manager of Shanghai New City Investment Co., Ltd., told reporters that currently, there are more registered enterprises in the park than physical enterprises, accounting for about 80% of the total. "On the one hand, we gradually transform the type and structure of park enterprises by adjusting the focus of investment attraction, gradually reducing the number of inefficient manufacturing enterprises, and focusing on key industries such as smart commerce and software information for investment attraction. On the other hand, we also pay attention to attracting a group of digital economy enterprises with production and manufacturing in other cities in the Yangtze River Delta, headquarters and research and development centers in Shanghai."

Not long ago, the investment attraction team of the park reached out to a major investment company in the fields of new materials and semiconductors during their negotiations with potential investment companies. "In this industry field, many enterprises in the middle and lower reaches of the industrial chain have production and manufacturing businesses in the Yangtze River Delta region, and Qingpu is promoting the construction of the Yangtze River Delta digital trunk line, which has unparalleled policy, industrial chain, and supply chain advantages. We immediately recommended relevant policies and industrial chain resources to this investment company, and the other party has preliminarily determined their investment intention."

At the same time as becoming the "mother family" of enterprises, the New City Economic Zone also utilizes its advantages of long establishment time and wide corporate network to develop many business owners into "off staff investment promoters", continuously extending the regional industrial chain through "attracting business through business". "Shanghai Xitong Medical Equipment Co., Ltd. settled in 2006, and its general manager, Jin Haiyan, was our 'off staff investment promoter'. Not only did she introduce us to many medical device companies, but she also invited the park's investment promotion team to go to Beijing and other places for investment promotion. Now, she has attracted hundreds of enterprises for the park," Chen Xueyun told reporters.

The reporter learned that currently, the cumulative number of investment households in Shanghai New City Economic Zone is nearly 20000, and over 18 billion yuan in taxes has been paid in the past 30 years. "The enduring vitality and driving force of the Zhaoxiang economy are represented by the New City Economic Zone. We will seize opportunities such as the construction of the Yangtze River Delta digital trunk line, continue to attract a group of large projects and leading enterprises, and continuously expand the 'friend circle' of Zhaoxiang enterprises with fine services." The relevant person in charge of Zhaoxiang Town said.

In summer, Yang Quan, a delivery rider from Lincang, Yunnan, has once again encountered the toughest delivery season of the year. However, his heart is steadfast: the "Warm New Nest" new employment group service station in front of the Zhaofeng Square in Zhongshan Park is a harbor for him and his colleagues to shelter from wind and rain throughout the year, regardless of the extreme cold or heat. This is one of the many "warm new nests" in Changning District. Yang Quan, born on the banks of the Lancang River and born in the 1990s, did not know that in the bustling city center of Shanghai, many people used to live in shabby houses, some of whom also faced insurmountable difficulties such as serious illness and unemployment.
