Zhangjiang International Community Phase I
Ms. Wang, Senior Product Manager of Baidu Company, born in the 1990s, just moved into the first phase of Zhangjiang International Community at the end of April this year. She signed a one-year lease agreement. "My family has also visited the house and, like me, they are very satisfied. I plan to renew my contract next year," Ms. Wang told Jiefang Daily's Shangguan News reporter.
In her opinion, living in Zhangjiang International Community has a high cost performance ratio, and each house is equipped with furniture and appliances, which can be easily moved in with a bag. Not only is there a children's playground here, but the meeting rooms in the community can also be provided for free to tenants. Regardless of whether it's rush hour in the morning or evening, she can drive to the company within 10 minutes.

[Upgrade: The goal is to achieve a 50% job to residence ratio "

To create a strong magnetic field for attracting and gathering talents, and to assist scientific and technological innovation talents in working and living in Zhangjiang, Zhangjiang Group has been raising housing resources from multiple sources. The entrepreneurial apartment, founded in the early 2000s, is known as the "1.0 version" of Zhangjiang Talent Apartment, setting a precedent for solving the housing problem of talent introduction at that time. Later, there was also the "High Tech Park" version 2.0 and the "Proud Son of Heaven" version 3.0. At present, there are over 10 talent apartment projects in the core area of Zhangjiang Science City, which to some extent meet the housing needs of Zhangjiang scientific researchers and various innovative and entrepreneurial talents.
Why build market-oriented rental apartments when there were already talent apartments like Zhuyu in front? Jin Limin, Deputy Chief Economist of Zhangjiang Group, introduced that although it has been gradually launched in recent years, talent apartments are still in short supply and too scattered. Shanghai has done a lot of work and came up with many solutions to retain talents. In 2017, it was the first in the country to introduce pure rental housing land, which is only available for rent but not for sale. Zhangjiang Group found through research that the job to residence ratio in Zhangjiang is only about 20%, and many people working in Zhangjiang do not live there.
Can Zhangjiang build more talent residential communities to promote the integration of science, industry, and city? Although renting in traditional talent apartments is subsidized by the government, the housing supply is limited, and the consumption of science and technology talents will gradually upgrade, resulting in differentiated requirements for community facilities and services. In this way, with the help of policies, Zhangjiang Group won the first pure rental housing land project in Shanghai, which gave rise to Zhangjiang International Community.
"Our goal is to strive for a 50% job to residence ratio in Zhangjiang Science City in the future." Speaking of the operation of Zhangjiang International Community, Jin Limin, who is also the general manager of Zhangjiang Huicheng Enterprise Management Co., Ltd., said that the management of Zhangjiang International Community is market-oriented, but the rent for houses will be slightly lower than that of similar quality properties in the surrounding area. The second phase will be delivered in July this year, with the addition of underfloor heating compared to the first phase, which can also be directly checked in with a bag.
Rendering of Zhangjiang International Community Phase III
Jin Limin introduced that the Zhangjiang International Community will continuously amplify the community effect of gathering scientific and technological innovation talents. "We hold salons, markets, and coffee festivals in the hope of integrating scientific and technological innovation inspiration with life fun, becoming a living space for young talents to exchange, share, and stimulate creativity."

"The purpose of technological innovation and creation is to make life better. We build rental apartments to make the lives of scientists and entrepreneurs better." Yuan Tao, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of Zhangjiang Group, said that Zhangjiang Group will continuously innovate the content and methods of talent services, and improve the level of comprehensive talent service guarantee in a market-oriented manner.
Let the vast number of talents carry a bag, settle down a home, and jointly build a city. It is understood that in the future, the NES brand will also launch products such as Zhangjiang Scientist Apartment and Zhangjiang Medical Park International Community, with a global perspective and international standards, continuously improving various supporting facilities, and helping Zhangjiang Science City build a science and technology innovation talent ecosystem.
