The "Guangzhou Metropolitan Area Development Plan" issued a few days ago made it clear that the overall development pattern of the Guangzhou metropolitan area is to take Guangzhou as the center, take the Guangzhou-Foshan core area as the guide, take the central urban areas of Zhaoqing and Qingyuan as the development poles, and rely on the main transportation corridors to build an overall development pattern of the metropolitan area of "one core, two poles and four axes".
Objectively speaking, in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, there is still an imbalance in regional development, and Zhaoqing is still in the position of "catch-up". For Zhaoqing, the "Guangzhou-Foshan-Zhaozhou Development Axis" proposed in the Plan is undoubtedly an important opportunity to promote exchanges and cooperation with Guangzhou-Foshan to a new level and deepen exchanges and cooperation with the two places.
Guangzhou, Foshan and Zhaoqing, with their close geographical proximity, cultural commonality, and close personnel, have laid a natural foundation for Guangzhou and Foshan to carry out counterpart assistance to Zhaoqing.
In recent years, the relevant units and departments of Guangzhou and Foshan have provided a large number of technologies, talents and resources for the needs of Zhaoqing, which not only brings material support for the development of Zhaoqing, but also provides positive guidance for Zhaoqing to continuously update its development ideas. Between Zhaoqing, Guangzhou and Foshan, a relationship of "hand in hand" and "like a family" has been formed.
In February this year, at the mobilization meeting of the "Millions and Thousands of Projects" in Guangdong Province, Guangzhou City and Zhaoqing City signed a counterpart assistance and cooperation agreement, which clarified the establishment of industrial cooperation and twinning relationship between Guangzhou District 4 and Zhaoqing 4 counties and 1 city. Among them, Tianhe District counterpart helped Guangning County and Huaiji County, Panyu District counterpart helped Fengkai County, Huadu District counterpart helped Deqing County, and Zengcheng District counterpart helped Sihui City.
From the upstream and downstream supporting cooperation of key industrial chains such as advanced equipment manufacturing, new energy vehicles, electronic information, energy conservation and environmental protection, to rural governance, rural infrastructure construction, rural industry building, and promoting the coordinated development of urban and rural areas, the strong synergy formed by Guangzhou, Foshan and Zhaoqing has provided a strong impetus in the process of "looking east and catching up with the east", and more and more gratifying results have also been borne under the joint cultivation and cultivation of the three places.
This year, four counties and one city in Zhaoqing undertook 224 transfer projects in GuangzhouGuangzhou Tianhe and Zhaoqing Huaiji cooperated to build an industrial park on September 26 and held a groundbreaking ceremony for the earthwork leveling projectGuangzhou Huadu, Zengcheng, Zhaoqing Deqing, Sihui jointly built industrial transfer park and fine chemical industrial park were unveiled in November.
From January to October this year, Zhaoqing Industrial Park (agglomeration base) introduced a total of 96 industrial projects in Foshan, 33 new projects started and 20 new projects put into operation. At present, Zhaoqing and Foshan also plan to further strengthen cooperation in new energy vehicles, electronic information, food and beverage prefabricated dishes, high-end equipment manufacturing, etc., and seek common industrial transformation and upgrading.
The "Guangzhou-Foshan-Zhaozhou Development Axis" proposed in the "Guangzhou Metropolitan Area Development Plan" provides clear guidance for the development of the three places.
The plan for the three places in Guangzhou, Foshan and Zhaozhou in the future will be in the promotion of infrastructure integration, jointly promote innovation-driven development, cooperate to build a modern industrial system, work together to create a world-class business environment, jointly build a shared livable metropolitan area, create an ecological charm metropolitan area, build a new pattern of regional cooperation and opening up, and accelerate the integration of urban and rural development, which naturally means that in the future, Guangzhou, Foshan and Zhaozhou will carry out more cooperation in more fields, and the "distance" between the three places will be further narrowed.
It can be said that the "Guangzhou-Foshan-Zhaozhou Development Axis" has brought the three places of Guangzhou, Foshan-Zhaozhou, which are already closely united, closer to each other. With the continuous acceleration of the construction of the Guangzhou metropolitan area, Zhaoqing will also become a new growth pole in the western part of the Greater Bay Area.
