"Enterprises have changed, industries have changed, and parks have to change, especially the development model must move with it. On December 26, during the 2023 Bay Area Industry and City Innovation Conference, Qu Jian, vice president of China (Shenzhen) Comprehensive Development Research Institute, said in the theme sharing of "High-quality Development of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and Transformation and Upgrading of Industrial Parks".
Qu Jian pointed out that at present, the traditional industrial park development model has come to an end, and the land appreciation and rental income on which the park relied for survival in the past are unsustainable. "The industry clearly feels that the transformation and upgrading of the park is 'external pressure and internal motivation', and has to look for income outside the real estate business. He said.
With the big data of the development of seven types of enterprises, Qu Jian said that the current development of the park must be in line with the latest development trend of the industry, make a difference in site selection, extension services, and industrial links, and provide enterprises with all-round, multi-dimensional, and professional supporting services.
In terms of site selection, enterprises in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area are highly concentrated in the "first inner bay", of which nearly one-third of the enterprises are gathering in Shenzhen. Based on this, Qu Jian suggested that the park be built in the core area, "the place is right, and the result is twice the result with half the effort." ”
In terms of industrial positioning, technology-intensive enterprises and producer services have gradually occupied the mainstream of industries in the Pearl River Delta. To this end, Qu Jian believes that the park needs to grasp the characteristics of related industries to build supporting facilities to achieve "nesting and attracting phoenixes".
In terms of extended services, Shenzhen enterprises have become more active and extensive in their investment at home and abroad, and have also built an active and close innovation network and a first-class chain network in Guangdong Province. Focusing on this point, Qu Jian said that the park needs to have corresponding value-added service capabilities and formulate targeted service plans.
In the context of high-level opening up, Qu Jian also reminded that the park should follow up the latest policies involving the Hetao Shenzhen-Hong Kong Science and Technology Innovation Cooperation Zone and the Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone in real time, strengthen the grafting with the bonded zone, special customs supervision zone and other functional areas, and make good use of policy dividends to create a free and convenient investment and environment for enterprises.
In the past, economic growth was driven by attracting labor and attracting investment, but now it is gradually driven by three factors: scientific and technological progress, investment in education, and institutional innovation. He said, "The park should think about what to do with these three elements."”
The transformation and upgrading of the park faces three major hurdles: re-planning, re-construction and re-development. Qu Jian suggested that the park should do a good job in the 123 planning system. Among them, "1" is a set of policies, which is iteratively upgraded for the service policy system"2" refers to two plans, one focuses on industrial planning, and the other focuses on spatial layout. "The planned cost of the infrastructure of the first generation of industrial parks was 500 million yuan per square kilometer, and the cost of 1 square kilometer exceeded 10 billion yuan in the first industrial park. He said that with a 20-fold increase from 500 million to 10 billion, everyone naturally knows the importance of these two plans. "3" refers to three reports, including the profit report, investment and financing report and management operation report of the development model, which solves the problem of "who will manage and who will operate".
The objects served by each industrial park are changing, and as a result, industrial park operators, developers, and investors have to change with the times. Qu Jian said.
