What is the rhythm of the Yangtze River Delta? Open | International | Yangtze River Delta
In the lush season of grass and trees, the Huangpu River is brightly lit, the Qinhuai River is shimmering with colors, the Qiantang River is bustling with traffic, and the shores of Chaohu Lake are full of vitality. In early summer, the Yangtze River Delta is filled with lively rhythms. Four years ago in early summer, the 2019 Yangtze River Delta Regional Leaders Symposium was held in Wuhu, Anhui. This was the first major conference held by three provinces and one city after the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta became a national strategy. Over the past four years, Danzhi once again gathered in Anhui, and a perfect "concentric circle" was drawn.Remembering the earnest instructions, the footsteps of progress are resounding and powerful. Hand in hand, collaborate, break through waves, and break through boundaries. Through the extraordinary year of 2022, the three provinces and cities of Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui have closely adhered to the keywords of "integration" and "high quality". They are sailing together, resonating with the same frequency, and holding firm beliefs in the same direction, unleashing tremendous power. The "rhythm" of integrated development is strong and vigorous.
Our mission is heavy, and we work together to share the burden
In 2023, ChatGPT became popular worldwide, and the wave of artificial intelligence surged. People lamented that humanity may have entered the eve of the explosion of new technologies. On the eve of this, Alibaba Cloud launched the large-scale language model "Tongyi Qianwen", and iFlytek released the "iFlytek Spark" cognitive model. These large models are learning and growing at an incredible speed, and the era of universal artificial intelligence has arrived. For innovation, the Yangtze River Delta must make progress and never stop. Two years ago in Shanghai, the ultra strong and ultra short laser experimental device was the first in the world to complete related experiments; At the end of last year in Hangzhou, Zhijiang Laboratory launched the "Zhijiang Yaoguang" intelligent computing operating system; Last August in Nanjing, the world's first cloud native computing network operating system was released; In April this year in Hefei, the world's first fully superconducting tokamak EAST device set a new world record for steady-state high constraint mode operation of tokamak devices.A significant mission stems from strong capabilities. At present, the Yangtze River Delta has gathered 23 large scientific devices, 101 State Key Laboratory, 2 national technology innovation centers, and 50 National Engineering Research Center, accounting for 1/3, 1/5, 1/6, and 1/7 of the country respectively. Being a pioneer means leveraging the maximum advantages of integration, strengthening alliances, complementing each other's strengths, and working together to build a national strategic scientific and technological force. Shanghai Zhangjiang and Hefei Comprehensive National Science Centers have taken a new step in the construction of a science and technology innovation community, with the development of Zhangjiang Laboratory, Hefei Laboratory, Suzhou Laboratory, and Zhijiang Laboratory clusters, the G60 Science and Technology Innovation Corridor's nine city linkage, accelerated construction along the Shanghai Nanjing Industrial Innovation Belt, and the joint unveiling of the Yangtze River Delta National Technology Innovation Center. More than 40000 large-scale scientific instruments have been jointly built and shared, sparking smart sparks of collaborative innovation. These sparks of wisdom will become important driving forces for social change and progress. In the movie "Wandering Earth 2", the quantum computer MOSS with super computing power and self-awareness is amazing. Two years ago, the prototype of the "Jiuzhang 2" quantum computing, which far surpassed the world's fastest supercomputer in speed, was launched in the Yangtze River Delta. "Jiuzhang No.2" was successfully developed by the University of Science and Technology of China in collaboration with the Shanghai Institute of Technical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences and other units. It can be said that this is also a significant scientific research achievement in the collaborative innovation output of the Yangtze River Delta. Looking up at the starry sky and burying oneself in innovation. Facing the surging wave of technological revolution, "pioneers" are accelerating their journey. Building a new highland for reform and opening up is another major mission of the Yangtze River Delta. "Every outfit I wear now is made in another country. My shirt and tie are all made in China. As you can see, I have benefited from China's opening up." In November last year, at the Hongqiao International Open Hub Construction Forum and the 2022 Hongqiao HUB Conference held in Shanghai, Nobel laureate Thomas Sargent made a joke in his speech. Although it is a joke, this statement is not false. Openness brings more opportunities and dividends to the world. The gross domestic product (GDP) is 2.69 trillion yuan, accounting for less than 2% of the regional area of three provinces and one city, and contributing nearly 10% of the total economic output... These "hard core" figures come from the major platform of opening up and cooperation in the Yangtze River Delta - the Hongqiao International Ope
Dividend and Welfare, We Share Together
A good neighbor, a good teammate, or a partner. In the process of integrated development, the three provinces and one city complement each other's strengths and advantages in industrial cooperation, sharing the dividends of development. At the 2022 International Major Technology and Equipment Industry Chain Conference held in November last year, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui jointly signed the Memorandum of Understanding on the Construction of Major Technology and Equipment Industry Clusters in the Yangtze River Delta, aiming to build a world-class major technology and equipment industry cluster. In the Yangtze River Delta, there are many industrial clusters and industrial chain alliances like this. Three provinces and one city jointly promote the action of supplementing, fixing, and strengthening industrial chains. On the horizontal axis of regional cooperation, regions cooperate and complement each other, and a number of industrial cooperation parks are unveiled and established; On the "vertical axis" of the industrial chain, leading enterprises are the "chain masters" to drive the integration and innovation of large, medium, and small enterprises... Nowadays, more and more "Yangtze River Delta partners" are achieving win-win results in industrial cooperation. The integration of transportation is a win-win economic and livelihood issue. Citizens who frequently commute between Suzhou and Shanghai can empathize with this. Suzhou Metro Line 11 is about to open for initial operation. In the future, Shanghai residents can take the subway to Suzhou to eat Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs, Kunshan to have a bowl of Aozao noodles, and Suzhou residents can take the subway to the other end of Shanghai Metro Line 11, the terminal station of Disney. Bus, subway, urban rail, high-speed rail... These dense transportation lines are like a chessboard, bringing each other closer in time and space. It is not uncommon for people in the Yangtze River Delta to commute high. The distance between time and space has become closer, with more interactions and closer connections. In the process of integration, more and more people in the triangle region are enjoying the benefits of people's livelihoods. Last September, Liu Zheng, Deputy Director of the Digestive Medicine Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, was explaining precautions to patients at the Second People's Hospital of Lai'an County, located in Chahe Town, Chuzhou City, Anhui Province. Are experts from Nanjing visiting small towns in Anhui for consultations? That's right, this is the dividend brought by medical cooperation. Lai'an County Second Hospital also has another name: Nanjing Medical University Second Affiliated Hospital Branch. From Monday to Saturday, experts from multiple hospitals in Nanjing are here to provide consultations and guide local doctors to improve their diagnosis and treatment skills. This means that local people do not need to cross provincial medical treatment, and can enjoy the medical resources of big cities at their doorstep. More than just seeking medical treatment, planning a map, transportation network, handling affairs with a chapter, and livelihood card... Efficient and convenient public services make it easy to handle cross provincial affairs. Currently, 140 government service matters are handled across provinces and cities in 41 cities in the Yangtze River Delta region; The "One Card" medical insurance system is fully accessible, with direct settlement of medical expenses for outpatient clinics in other regions covering 15000 medical institutions. A sky above my head, drinking a river together. Only through cross provincial environmental governance can ecological dividends be shared. Not long ago, as the first cross provincial detailed national land spatial planning in China, the "Overall Land Spatial Plan for the Yangtze River Delta Ecological Green Integration Development Demonstration Zone" was approved and issued, providing a planning basis for regional coordinated development and ecological governance. At p
Breaking the Waves and Breaking the Circle, Let's Move Forward Together
We have experienced a lot in the past year. Faced with the impact of the epidemic and factors such as demand contraction, supply shock, and weakened expectations, pragmatic and intelligent people in the Yangtze River Delta always seek certainty in uncertainty, actively adapt to the environment, solve problems, and move forward with determination. After the cold winter of the epidemic, Mount Huangshan Yunshang B&B will be very busy on New Year's Day 2023. Nine rooms were fully occupied by over 20 guests. There are two young couples among the guests who just got married before New Year's Day and came over for their honeymoon. After learning about it, the owner of the homestay, Cheng Xinfeng, specially pasted the word "happiness" in the room, changed the bedding to red, and bought 20000 firecrackers to add a festive atmosphere. On the same day, Charlie, the Mount Huangshan scenery anchor, lived on the mountain and broadcast the first sunrise in 2023. Thousands of people were online to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, and send good wishes. "Tourists are all looking forward to the warmth of spring and the blooming of flowers," Charlie said. As spring warms up, flowers will bloom. On March 8th of this year, at the Yiwu International Expo Center, hundreds of Indian businessmen and local foreign trade industry workers gathered in a circle to celebrate the Indian festival "Sa Hong Festival", singing and dancing. The entire square immediately turned into a colorful ocean. Indian businessman Atik, who returned to China, couldn't help but feel excited when he saw his old Chinese friend. He said that besides his hometown, Yiwu is the most important base in his business map and must take root here. The return of "foreign faces" in the Yiwu market is an important signal of the recovery of foreign trade. In the spring of the epidemic, the three provinces and one city have continued to sound the horn of striving for economic growth and seizing the opportunity to make a good start this year, with frequent occurrences of "shining moments" such as "charter flights to the sea" and "cross regional competition for people". Taking foreign trade as an example, the export of products such as automobiles, solar cells, and lithium-ion batteries in the Yangtze River Delta has been strong, with the export growth rate of lithium-ion battery products in three provinces and one city all exceeding 80%. The success of consumption at the beginning is particularly exciting. In the Yangtze River Delta, the consumer and tourism markets are actively recovering, and the popularity is like the popular song "Love Like Fire", "warming the heart.". During the 7-day Spring Festival holiday, the Yangtze River Delta Railway has sent a total of 8.699 million passengers, a year-on-year increase of 67.7%; This year's "May Day" holiday, from the West Lake to the Taihu Lake Lake, to the Bund and Mount Huangshan Mountain, the Yangtze River Delta is performing the "people follow the crowd" mode. The strong popularity and fireworks have risen into a series of upward economic data, and many large scenic spots have recovered to the same level as in 2019. The rebound in the first quarter of the economy's performance report indicates everything. In the first quarter of this year, the total economic output of Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui provinces and cities increased by nearly 370 billion yuan compared to last year, accounting for a slight increase in the proportion of national GDP, about 24.49%. The Yangtze River Delta, which dares to "break through the waves" and is good at "breaking through circles", has demonstrated strong resilience in economic development through mutual progress. On the other side of the future, we are heading towards the Great Hall of the People in Beijing in October 2022. The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China solemnly declared that from now on, the central task of the CPC is to unite and lead the people of all ethnic groups in the country to comprehensively build a strong socialist modernization country, achieve
