Today, the new Chengdu-Zigong-Yibin high-speed railway (Chengdu-Ziyi high-speed railway) was officially opened. As the first high-speed railway in Sichuan with a design speed of 350 kilometers per hour, the Chengdu-Yiyi high-speed railway starts from Chengdu, passes through Ziyang, Neijiang and Zigong, and finally arrives in Yibin.
Five days ago, also in southern Sichuan, the Xubi section of the Longhuang Railway was officially opened to traffic, and a "steel dragon" was erected on the trunk line of the new western land-sea channel from Chengdu through Yibin and Luzhou to Qinzhou Port in Guangxi, bringing the dream of "going to sea" of the railway into reality.
Going back in time, on December 8, Sichuan officials announced their support for Yibin Luzhou to form a group to build a sub-center of southern Sichuan provincial economy. In the official "Opinions", the Chengziyi high-speed railway is written in the section of "improving the energy level of the national comprehensive transportation hub", which has become an important support for "strengthening the southbound open hub gateway function and developing a high-level open economy".
Within a week, with the successive opening of the two railways, the distance between the provincial "sub-center" and the "center" of the Yibin-Luzhou group in Chengdu has been further shortened, which is not only an interconnection, but also a strong alliance.
On the track paved with steel, a new look of southern Sichuan is accelerating the emergence of ......
From the salt tea ceremony to the "fastest high-speed rail".
South Sichuan ushered in the take-off road
In ancient times, salt and tea were the "hard currency" of the market, but in southern Sichuan, which is rich in salt and tea, transportation has become a thousand-year-long obstruction to the local foreign world. For thousands of years, an ancient salt tea road connecting the provincial capital Chengdu in the north and the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau in the south has been the main channel for foreign traffic in southern Sichuan.
With the passage of time, the ancient Yancha Road has become a chapter of the past, and the rapid development of modern transportation has allowed southern Sichuan to have expressways, airports, and high-speed railways. In southern Sichuan, where various modes of transportation have been gradually completed, what new opportunities can Sichuan's "fastest high-speed railway" - Chengziyi high-speed railway bring here?
It's really fast!"In the first-class test ride experience activity before the opening of the Chengziyi high-speed railway, as the train stopped at the platform of Tianfu Airport Station, many ** people sighed. The "fast" of the Chengdu Ziyi high-speed railway not only greatly shortens the travel distance between Chengdu city and Tianfu Airport, but also breaks the "flight pain point" of the people in the southern Sichuan urban agglomeration. In Qiuxi Town, where Zizhong West Station is located, Chen An, a local resident, calculated a time account for reporters - there is no through train to Tianfu Airport in the local area, and you need to take a bus to the county seat first, which takes as little as two hours and as much as half a day from departure. After the opening of the Chengziyi high-speed railway, this time will be shortened to about 20 minutes.
From Tianfu Airport all the way south, many residents along the line will expand the radius of travel due to the opening of the Ziyi high-speed railway, and enjoy the happiness of "taking off at will". At the same time, Tianfu Airport will also attract more passengers from southern Sichuan and even Yunnan and Guizhou due to the opening of the Chengziyi high-speed railway, and the largest airport in southwest China will once again usher in the "highlight moment" since its opening.
Behind the take-off of physical significance, the jump in the energy level of regional development is more worth looking forward to.
Relying on good policies and planning, Yibin has attracted a large number of high-tech enterprises such as XGIMI Technology and Heguang Tongcheng in recent years. The blessing of the "fastest high-speed railway" not only makes it more convenient for enterprises to communicate with foreign countries, but also provides more bargaining chips for local enterprises to attract investment.
In the Zigong Chuannan New Material Chemical Industry Park next to the Yantan Station of the Chengziyi High-speed Railway, the fully automatic production line of an enterprise is running at full capacityThe opening of the Chengziyi high-speed railway will make it possible for new materials such as photovoltaic glass produced here to "go global".
In the World Fig Base in Neijiang Weiyuan, the operator is busy upgrading the base to welcome more passengers. The opening of the Chengziyi high-speed railway will make Neijiang a "top student" in Sichuan Province for the "county-to-county high-speed railway", and the local advantageous rural tourism, research tourism and other industries will also usher in new opportunities.
As it should be self-explanatory, it is not only the mountains and rivers of southern Sichuan that "passes", but also the surging convection of the vitality of Chengdu and southern Sichuan.
From the mud road to the "mouth to the sea".
Camellia oleifera sees new opportunities
Early in the morning of December 21, Peng Tao came to the gate of Xuyong North Station, waiting for the opening of the first train of the Xubi section of the Longhuang Railway.
A few years ago, he took a fancy to the climate and policy advantages of planting camellia fruit in Xuyong, and came here to open a camellia oil production enterprise. After several years of hard work, it has gradually grown into an important local characteristic industry. For the locals, and for Peng Tao, the railway has opened his eyes to new opportunities.
With this railway, the cost of producing tea oil may be reduced. Peng Tao told reporters that in the edible oil market, tea oil is higher, which is also in line with the health needs of modern people. The raw material for the production of camellia oil is a crop called camellia fruit, and although there is a base for planting camellia fruit in Xuyong, it can no longer meet the needs of enterprises to expand their scale. At present, the shortage of local raw materials has become an obstacle to expanding production.
More abundant tea oil raw materials need to cross Wumeng Mountain to Guizhou. Peng Tao said that in order to obtain more raw materials, he had tried to buy Camellia oleifera fruit from Guizhou, but road transportation was not only costly, but also limited by various conditions, and the opening of the railway will provide the "optimal solution" for all this. "In the future, the purchase of raw materials from Guizhou and our local processing will save one-third of the cost per catty, and it will also create more jobs for the local area. ”He said.
The small camellia fruit is like a mirror, reflecting the endless opportunities that the railway has brought to many cities in southern Sichuan.
In the deeper part of Wumeng Mountain, the land of the three provinces of Jisong. The paving of the Xubi section of the Longhuang Railway has enabled this large mountainous area to realize the leap from the mud road to the inland "sea outlet". Tea oil from Xuyong in Luzhou, kiwifruit from Xingwen in Yibin, and even apples from Zhaotong in Yunnan will become "frequent passengers" of this railway in the future, adding opportunities for the development of local characteristic industries.
In addition to the opening of the Xubi section, the construction of the western section of the new western land-sea corridor has been receiving good news in the near future - the construction of the Huangbai Railway and the expansion and transformation of the Longxu section have been ......The new land-sea corridor in the western part of the country, which departed from Chengdu, is speeding up to fill the blanks.
The millennium dream of "going to sea" is about to come true, and between the dream and reality, it is the south of Sichuan that has built a bridge between Chengdu and the ocean.
From "one black and one white" to "thousands of purples and thousands of reds".
Now we are starting from scratch
In the fifties and sixties of the last century, some sections of the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway and the Nei-Kunming Railway were connected, and Neijiang, Zigong and Yibin in southern Sichuan successively had their first railways. The rapid development of railway transportation has greatly developed the local mineral resources, and coal mines, iron and steel, cement, etc., together with traditional liquor, have become the pillars of southern Sichuan's economy. "One black and one white" has also become the background color of the industry in southern Sichuan.
The industry in southern Sichuan has flourished because of the railway, and it has also changed because of the railway. Many years later, the opening of high-speed railways such as Chengdu-Chongqing and Chengdu-Guizhou has gradually brought the industry in southern Sichuan out of the simple "black and white" and has a touch of brightness.
Yibin in winter, the sky is high and the clouds are light. Black-billed gulls wintering in Siberia are in stark contrast to the schools of fish in the Yangtze River. By the river, people buy bread and throw it into the river and in the air, which is the trust of people and animals, and also the witness of the changes in Yibin's natural environment. In recent years, relying on the optimization of location and transportation, Yibin has introduced power batteries, projection manufacturing and other industries. From coal mining to clean energy, the city has completed a beautiful industrial turnaround. The opening of the high-speed railway will undoubtedly speed up the development of Yibin's new industry again and make the name of "power battery capital" louder.
In modern times, Neijiang and Zigong, which are in southern Sichuan with Yibin, have always been the "salt capital" and "sweet city" of Sichuan, but with the popularization of modern production technology, the industries that the two cities have relied on for thousands of years are facing a huge impact. Since the last century, the two cities have turned to minerals and energy, but today, extensive mineral production is also facing challenges, and "transformation" is the common demand of the two cities. When the "fastest high-speed railway in Sichuan" passes here, people and elements from all over the world can also flow quickly here, creating conditions for transformation.
From relying on a single "one black and one white" to "thousands of purples and thousands of reds", it is not difficult to find that in southern Sichuan, every industrial development is closely related to the opening of the railway. Today, the opening of the Chengziyi high-speed railway and the construction of the new land-sea channel in the west provide people with space for imagination.
The mouth of the three rivers in Yibin, with the shallow bottom of Yuxiang, the waves of the Minjiang River and the Jinsha River are rolling and distinct, and the Changjiang River converges here, as the mother river, flowing through the most important economic belt in China, bringing infinite vitality to the cities along the route.
Tracing back to the source, it is the Minjiang River that has been tamed by Dujiangyan that has laid the foundation for Chengdu's development. Chengdu and southern Sichuan have met countless times with caravans and travelers in time.
When the country enters the stage of new urbanization, urban agglomerations and metropolitan areas are particularly important, and deep coordination between urban agglomerations and metropolitan areas is the key to sustainable development. Efficient transportation can broaden the doors of communication with each other.
Today, the opening of the Chengziyi high-speed railway and the construction of the new land-sea corridor in the west have once again made the two places stand at the starting point of a new history, but today, the vision of the two places is farther and the goal is more ambitious.
Drink the water of the same river and walk together on the same road. Chengdu and southern Sichuan, the future can be expected.
