Firmly grasp the strategic positioning of the capital city and promote high-quality development (High Quality Development Research Tour) Beijing | Green | Strategy
Beijing stands and thrives because of its capital.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has visited Beijing many times and delivered important speeches. He made a series of important instructions and instructions, profoundly clarified the major issue of "what kind of capital to build and how to build the capital", and clarified Beijing's national politics. The strategic positioning of the center, cultural center, international exchange center, and international science and technology innovation center puts forward the strategic goal of building a world-class harmonious and livable city, personally for the development of the capital layout, navigation guide.
Based on the new stage of development, we will deeply implement the new development concept, serve and integrate into the construction of a new development pattern, focus on promoting high-quality development, and continuously achieve new results in various work in the capital.
Reducing development and improving quality while relieving non capital functions
From gathering resources for growth, to relieving non capital functions for development. Entering a new era, Beijing, the capital city, has achieved profound transformation in its development, with reduced development becoming the most distinctive feature.
Outside the Northwest Second Ring Road of Beijing, the New Power Financial Technology Center faces Beijing Zoo across the street. Standing on the central rooftop of the "Starry Sky Garden", a modern office building comes into view, with cars flowing incessantly on the roads between the buildings, and cyclists and hikers passing through it. This is the bustling "moving batch" that has been bustling for 30 years. The cramped, congested, and dirty past has made it a microcosm of urban diseases.
"The center has been in operation for two years and currently has a building occupancy rate of about 70%." In the spacious and transparent second floor lobby, Li Qian, the general manager of Beijing New Power Jinke Asset Operation Management Co., Ltd., is very enthusiastic. "We will regularly hold industry conferences, forums, roadshows, information dissemination and other activities to provide space and service support for the development of the fintech industry."
Replace high-quality development with subtraction. Upgrading and renovating the site to strengthen hardware, working hand in hand with Financial Street and Zhongguancun to enhance software, and ushering in a new era of "dynamic batch" after relocation. Nowadays, this place has transformed into a national level financial technology demonstration zone.
"We will persist in reducing production and exploring new paths for high-quality development." Sun Shuo, Secretary of the Xicheng District Party Committee, introduced that the "Jinke New Area" has introduced a total of 166 key fintech enterprises and professional service institutions, with a registered capital of over 110 billion yuan. In 2022, we will achieve tax and fee income exceeding 3 billion yuan.
Similarly, in order to reduce emissions, Daxing District, located in the southern part of Beijing, has chosen another path: aiming for the "dual carbon" strategy and building the "Daxing International Hydrogen Energy Demonstration Zone". The traditional factory has transformed into a "skyscraper factory", a science and technology innovation park covering an area of about 20 hectares, with hydrogen energy research and development, utilization, and manufacturing as its main functions, is growing rapidly.
"The third phase of the project has started construction and will introduce the National Fuel Cell Vehicle Testing Center to establish a comprehensive service platform for hydrogen product testing and certification." Wang Kun, the project leader of the demonstration zone and the party branch secretary of Xingchuang Hydrogen Spring Company, introduced that "currently, the world's largest daily hydrogen refueling station has been built here, with a daily hydrogen refueling capacity of up to 4.8 tons."
According to Zhu Xinglong, Deputy Director of the Comprehensive Department of the Beijing Development and Reform Commission's Rectification and Promotion Special Office, since the implementation of the Rectification and Promotion Special Action in 2014, Beijing has withdrawn nearly 3000 general manufacturing and polluting enterprises, and evacuated and improved nearly 1000 regional professional markets and logistics centers.
Reducing quantity is for improving quality. The Dahongmen Clothing Trading City in Fengtai District is transforming into the South Central Axis International Cultural and Technological Park; The Longfu Temple area in Dongcheng District has transformed into a new cultural space that integrates theaters, art museums, and shared office areas; The Kuntai Building in Chaoyang District is about to become another vibrant landmark in the outward facing area
The 2023 Beijing Municipal Government Work Report shows that in the past five years, Beijing has achieved the goal of reducing the permanent population of the six urban districts by 15% compared to 2014, and reducing the amount of urban and rural construction land by 120 square kilometers. At the same time, the total economic output of the city has surpassed two major levels: 3 trillion yuan and 4 trillion yuan. The per capita regional GDP has exceeded 180000 yuan, ranking first among provinces, regions, and cities, and reaching the moderate level of developed economies.
Innovative development, using technological innovation to generate new development momentum
In the future, where is the brightest light source in the world? Huairou Science City in the suburbs of Beijing.
"Its brightness is 1 trillion times higher than the sun." Pan Weimin, the overall commander of the high-energy synchrotron radiation light source project, introduced that by 2025, after the high-energy synchrotron radiation light source is completed and put into operation, it will produce the "brightest synchrotron radiation light" in the world, which will be of great help to the preparation, service, and stress analysis of aviation materials. "
Accelerating the realization of high-level technological self-reliance and self-improvement is a necessary path to promote high-quality development. Keeping in mind the importance of the country, the construction of the Beijing International Science and Technology Innovation Center continues to accelerate.
At present, Huairou Science City has established 34 scientific facilities, including comprehensive extreme condition experimental devices, multimodal and cross scale biomedical imaging facilities, and Earth system numerical simulation devices. Major scientific and technological infrastructure clusters are accelerating their formation, and these "national treasures" will become important support for breaking through the "bottleneck" of key core technologies.
Time waits for no one, seize the day and night. Beijing has established 8 world-class new research and development institutions in the fields of quantum, blockchain, artificial intelligence, etc; Give play to the role of universities and research institutes in Beijing, and build 7 national technology innovation centers, 3 national manufacturing innovation centers, 78 National Engineering Research Center
"At present, three national laboratories in Zhongguancun, Changping, and Huairou have achieved high-quality integration and operation, with 80 national key laboratories in Beijing ranking first in the country," said Zhang Jihong, Director of the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission and Zhongguancun Management Committee.
Technological innovation generates new development momentum and drives the rapid development of high-precision and cutting-edge industries. The digital transformation has created a new BOE, and Xiaomi's black light factory has become an industry benchmark... By deeply integrating 5G technology with mechanical manufacturing, the "Sany" factory located in Changping District, Beijing has become the first 5G fully connected factory in the domestic equipment manufacturing industry. The staff told reporters, "Production efficiency has increased by about 10 times, and cost savings have reached over 80%."
Nowadays, the "three cities and one district", including Huairou Science City, contribute less than 6% of the total land area to one-third of Beijing's GDP. In 2022, the digital economy in Beijing achieved an added value of 1.7 trillion yuan, accounting for 41.6% of the regional GDP, with an average annual growth rate of 10.3%, becoming one of the main engines driving economic growth.
The Beijing Tianjin Hebei region is like the petals of a flower, with different petals but concentric petals. With its radiating and driving effect, Beijing's innovative achievements bloom and bear fruit on a larger scale. A batch of disruptive technological innovation achievements are accelerating to emerge in the Beijing Tianjin Hebei National Technology Innovation Center, including miniaturized two-photon microscopy, integrated intelligent electronic skin, sodium ion battery materials and batteries.
"At present, 208 forward-looking projects have been implemented, with about 10% being world first or leading, and 139 achievements have been transformed." Wang Guixiang, Director of the Beijing Tianjin Hebei National Technology Innovation Center, introduced that the center is currently accelerating the construction of a collaborative innovation pattern of university "breeding", center "seedling", enterprise "breeding", and regional "afforestation".
It is understood that from 2013 to 2022, the number of technology contracts exported from Beijing to Tianjin Hebei increased from 3176 to 5881, with an average annual growth rate of 7.1%; The transaction volume increased from 7.12 billion yuan to 35.69 billion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of 19.6%.
Green development, polishing the high-quality development of the capital with a bright "background"
The sky is bluer, the ground is greener, and the water is clearer. Adhering to the principle of putting the people at the center, firmly establishing and practicing the concept that green mountains and clear waters are invaluable assets, "green" and "livable" have become distinct symbols of the development of the capital in the new era.
On the banks of the Dayun River, three major buildings, including the "Cultural Granary" Grand Theater, the "Forest Book Garden" Library, and the "Canal Boat" Museum, have entered the final stage of construction. "The project aligns with the three-star standard for green buildings and can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by nearly 10000 tons annually, with technology at a leading level in China." Sha Gang, Deputy General Manager of the Three Major Construction Project Departments at the Urban Sub center of Beitou Group, introduced.
As a national green development demonstration zone, the Beijing Urban Sub center has fully implemented the two star or above standard for new buildings and the three-star standard for new public buildings. Prefabricated buildings account for nearly 60% of new construction projects, and the completed green building area exceeds 10 million square meters. The Urban Sub center has become the first region in China to fully implement the three-star green building standard for large public buildings.
"The forest coverage rate in the entire region has reached 33.78%, and the urban sub center has successfully created the first national forest city in the Beijing Plain area." Gao Qiong, Deputy Director of the Tongzhou District Landscape and Greening Bureau, introduced that as of now, Tongzhou District has built 8 forest clusters with an area of over 10000 acres, 32 forest clusters with an area of over 1000 acres, and 51 parks of various types. "People can see greenery by pushing windows at their doorstep."
The city is surrounded by greenery and lush vegetation. During the day, there is a blue sky and white clouds, and at night, stars can be seen twinkling. At the same time as ecological "green", the urban sub center continuously expands the connotation of "green", extending to multiple fields such as industry, transportation, energy, architecture, and culture.
Climbing the high-rise observation platform at the intersection of the Five Rivers, one can only see modern buildings scattered on both sides of the canal waterway. Zheng Hao, Deputy Secretary of the Tongzhou District Committee and District Mayor, introduced that this is the Canal Business District, which focuses on green finance and wealth management. Nearly 20000 high-end enterprises, including national green exchanges, have achieved settlement. "At present, there are more than 360 registered financial enterprises in the entire region, and the added value and tax revenue of the financial industry both exceed 10%. The momentum of green development is becoming increasingly strong."
The vibrant urban sub center is a microcosm of Beijing's complete, accurate, and comprehensive implementation of the new development concept, strengthening ecological civilization construction, and promoting green development.
In recent years, a series of air pollution prevention and control measures have been implemented and effective, including reducing coal consumption, phasing out old motor vehicles, and comprehensively cleaning up and rectifying scattered polluting enterprises. The average annual concentration of PM2.5 in Beijing has decreased from 89.5 micrograms per cubic meter in 2013 to 30 micrograms per cubic meter in 2022.
"In the past decade of the new era, Beijing has attached unprecedented importance to ecological environment protection, improved ecological environment quality at an unprecedented speed, and made unprecedented efforts in pollution prevention and control." Yu Jianhua, Deputy Director of the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment, said, "The turning of Beijing's sky into blue has become the most rewarding thing for the people."
Building a green foundation and painting a new picture of high-quality development. The proportion of high-quality energy in the city has increased from 86.9% to 98.5%; Maintaining a leading national level in energy and water consumption for a region with a GDP of 10000 yuan; The total scale of the rail network reaches 1172 kilometers, ranking first in the country
In the new era and new journey, Beijing will take the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development as the guide, coordinate the promotion of carbon reduction, pollution reduction, green expansion, and growth, promote ecological priority, conservation and intensification, and green and low-carbon development. The foundation of high-quality development in the capital will be even brighter!
