There have been two news stories in the past two days
First, since December 22, there have been major changes in the operation of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen high-speed railway. Specifically, the high-speed rail will be added to cross Hong Kong during the holidays, with more than 200 trains running every day.
Second, the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge was opened for tourism on December 15.

Taken together, the two pieces of news actually show that the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is becoming more and more connected.
The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge spans the Lingding Ocean, which is also known as the Zero Ding Yang, and the poem "Crossing the Zero Ding Yang" by Wen Tianxiang at the end of the Song Dynasty has the sentence "Zero Ding Yang sighs in the Zero Ding Yang". Of course, the more famous are the last two sentences - "Who has not died in life since ancient times, leaving Danqing to shine on sweat".
This is not the table. Just to the north of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, there are really new discoveries!
The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge started construction in 2009, achieved the main breakthrough in 2017, and opened for operation at 9 a.m. on October 24, 2018. Count the Pearl River Estuary, from the Guangzhou-Shenzhen high-speed railway, to the Zhongshan-Nansha-Humen intercity, to the Shenzhen-Mao railway, the Shenjiang railway, etc., that is to say, from the Shiziyang to the Lingding Ocean to the south of it, the road network has been densely woven. 
The latest situation is that on November 28, the "Shenzhen-Zhongshan Passage" from Shenzhen to Zhongshan was fully connected. The reason why it is called "channel" is mainly because this cross-Lingdingyang building is located north of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, which is partly an undersea tunnel and partly a cross-sea bridge, which is connected by artificial islands. After it is completed and opened to traffic in 2024, the journey from Zhongshan to Shenzhen will be reduced from the current 2 hours to the fastest less than 30 minutesIn June this year, the submarine immersed tunnel of the Shenzhong Passage was closed at the bottom of the Lingding Ocean. On November 28 this year, the submarine immersed tunnel was completed. This indicates that the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor will be opened to traffic as scheduled. On the afternoon of December 21, sponsored by the China Evening News Workers Association and undertaken by Yangcheng Evening News Group, the Guangdong high-quality development research and interview of the president-in-chief of the country's 100 mainstream ** companies entered the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Channel under construction, and many first-class celebrities had a first-hand experience of the significance of the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Channel. 
The president's editor-in-chief conducted an interview in the Shenzhong Channel Picture: Yangcheng faction"I think the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor is a miracle of China's engineering construction, and its completion is of unparalleled significance to the construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and the development of the Pearl River Delta. ”At the scene, Zhu Guoshun, executive chairman of the China Evening Association and former president of Xinmin Evening News, said, "I hope everyone can go to the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor to take a walk, have a look, and experience this great world-class engineering miracle firsthand." "The technology content and construction difficulty of the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor are astounding, and we believe that the future of the Greater Bay Area will be even brighter. Standing on the bridge that is about to be completed and opened to traffic, Wang Wenjian, member of the Party Committee of Xinhua ** Society and editor-in-chief of Yangtze Evening News, couldn't help but sigh when listening, "The Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor is worthy of being a 'super project' that leverages the new pattern of the Greater Bay Area!."”2
Standing on the Shenzhong Passage on the Lingding Ocean is indeed full of emotion. The Opium War began when the British army marched to Canton in the Lingding Ocean. At that time, China could not defend Lingdingyang. Nowadays, there are undersea tunnels, sea highway bridges and railway bridges on the Lingding Ocean. There are several bridges even within a few tens of kilometers. The Greater Bay Area seems to be "densely seamed" by these transportation constructions, and has become the "Greater Bay Area on the track". From the perspective of the world, there has long been no gunpowder smoke on the Lingding Ocean, which has been held in our hands and has become the ocean of economic development and the ocean of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao.

For example, after the completion of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, its submarine immersed tunnel technology can be applied to the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor. But on the other hand, in fact, it also shows the close dependence and interaction of the economies of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, and even you have me, I have you, which will inevitably make the expectations of various places for convenient transportation more ardent than before. Take Zhongshan, the "geometric center" of the Greater Bay Area, as an example, it demolished inefficient old factories and freed up 310,000 acres of space provides high-quality land resources for the ten 10,000-mu modern theme industrial parks. With the completion of the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor, it can also be seen from the simplest economic perspective that these lands will produce industrial upgrading and value-added. 3
Why was the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area built?At the global headquarters of Infinitus (China) in Guangzhou, the presidents and editors-in-chief found that the company's earliest origins were born in Zhuhai in 1888 and then moved to Hong Kong. Today, it has production bases in Xinhui, Guangdong and other places. All in all, this company alone is a great illustration of the vitality of the Greater Bay Area. Connected by blood, speaking almost the same dialect and using the same way of doing business, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau, the Greater Bay Area, will naturally be the focus of China's next stage of development.

The infrastructure madness makes transportation convenient, and the general rule is not painful, which is the way of traditional Chinese medicine that Infinitus also loves!
