The Hongqiao Development Zone, located in Jinhongqiao, is one of the first economic and technological development zones in China.

In serving the implementation of national strategies, it is continuously pushing the regional level to a new level.

The digital economy has become the largest industry

As the only central urban area within Shanghai, Changning District is committed to high-quality development, fully promoting the "Most Hongqiao" leading action, optimizing industrial development layout, and continuously upgrading hub and portal functions. From January to July this year, among the various areas of the Hongqiao International Central Business District, the Changning area accounted for less than one seventh of the total area and contributed over one-third of the tax revenue.

Zhang Wei, Secretary of the Changning District Party Committee, stated that the "Dahongqiao" not only brings "spillover" but also "influx" effects to Changning. Changning's positioning is not simply "docking" or one-way "undertaking", but organic "integration" and integrated "promotion".

Driven by major strategies, the economic development of Changning District accelerated in the first half of the year, with a year-on-year increase of 15.3% in regional GDP, ranking first in the city in terms of growth rate. From January to July, the progress of completing the general public budget revenue at the district level exceeded 70%, and the supporting role of "3+3" key industries in regional development became increasingly evident, with a tax revenue ratio of 70%.

Driven by this, the economic advantages of Changning's buildings continue to expand, with the average unit area tax of key commercial buildings reaching about 9000 yuan per square meter. Among them, the Jinhongqiao International Center, on the basis of becoming the city's first tax revenue building worth 10 billion yuan last year, has surpassed 10 billion yuan in tax revenue in July this year, once again becoming the first tax revenue building worth 10 billion yuan in Shanghai.

This lays a solid foundation for forward-looking layout of new industrial tracks such as intelligent terminals and accelerating the ecological construction of future industries.

Zhang Wei introduced that the next step is to focus on expanding and strengthening the aviation service industry. Changning will actively connect with the construction of a world-class aviation hub in Shanghai, continuously elongating its strengths. Specifically, efforts will be made to achieve breakthroughs in encrypting intercity air express lines, enhancing the operational capabilities of business aircraft, and promoting innovation in bonded functions. More domestic and foreign aviation headquarters, aviation alliances, and large aircraft related projects will be attracted to settle in Changning, and efforts will be made to build a strong and active national level demonstration zone for air economy.

Promoting Urban Renewal of Old Hongqiao

As early as the end of the 12th Five Year Plan, Changning District was the first in the city to complete the renovation of old residential areas below the second level, and entered the exploration and practice of urban renewal earlier. In recent years, through deep and panoramic updates, Changning District has been continuously promoting the improvement of urban quality, optimization of spatial layout, and improvement of public services by extending from the exterior to the interior, from roads to alleys, and connecting points to the surface.

Hou Jijun stated that in 2021, Changning took the lead in preparing the "15 minute Community Better Life Circle" action plan for all streets and towns in the district.

The urban renewal in the Old Hongqiao area has begun.

It is reported that Changning District is vigorously promoting the transformation of existing commercial buildings in Hongqiao Development Zone, and promoting the construction of major projects such as Yifeng Center, Jingyao Hongqiao, IKEA Huiju, and Hongqiao Shangcheng.

At the same time, there are also some inefficient industrial land and parks in the region. How to accelerate structural adjustment, transformation and upgrading is an urgent problem that needs to be overcome. Next, Changning District will actively explore the mixed use of land for multiple purposes, guide and support eligible enterprises to carry out "industrial upgrading", accelerate the updating and upgrading of existing inefficient industrial parks, free up more high-quality space for regional high-quality development, and promote the continuous improvement of economic density.
