According to the Changsha Evening News, on the afternoon of December 22, the groundbreaking ceremony of the Xiangjiang Science City project was held, Xiangjiang Science Center (Trade and Exhibition Center, Science Exchange Center, Science and Technology Service Center, Xiangjiang Innovation Port, Xiangjiang Academician Port), Hunan University Science and Technology Innovation Port, Hunan Iron and Steel Group Technology Research Institute, Changsha No. 1 Middle School (Xiangjiang Campus), Xiangjiang Future Community, Shuanghu Home, Cailun Road, etc., with a total land area of about 2,813 acres and a total investment of 227900 million yuan, and the construction is expected to be basically completed in 2026.

Changsha is making every effort to build a global R&D center city, and build a R&D cluster area according to the spatial layout of "one city, one district and three bases". One city is Xiangjiang Science City, which spreads along the north and south of the Xiangjiang River, spans the two cities of Changsha and Xiangtan, surrounds the Changzhutan ** Park, is adjacent to the Science and Technology City of Yuelu Mountain University in the north, and Rongxiangtan Jiuhua Economic and Technological Development Zone in the south, which is an important junction of the Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone and an important node of the science and technology innovation corridor on the west bank of the Xiangjiang River. Planning Scope 15365 square kilometers, of which 95 are in Changsha City5 square kilometers, 5815 square kilometers.

Interpretation: At present, the level of scientific and technological innovation ability is becoming a decisive factor in urban competition. From the perspective of the "national team" of scientific and technological innovation, Beijing, Shanghai, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, Wuhan, Chengdu-Chongqing and Xi'an are all national science and technology innovation centers. Especially in the central region, Wuhan has performed more prominently in the fields of scientific research and talents, and Changsha needs a stronger innovation drive to break the pattern and stand out.

To build Changsha into a global R&D center city", this is the strategic goal proposed by Shen Xiaoming, Secretary of the Hunan Provincial Party Committee, at the 2023 Internet Yuelu Summit held in June this year. The so-called "global R&D center city" is a gathering area for R&D institutions, especially the R&D headquarters of multinational companies, a reservoir for high-end R&D talents, and a source of major scientific and technological achievements and high-tech industries.

Looking at the whole country, there is only one city in Changsha that has shouted such a target positioning. "Crossing the river by feeling the stones", Changsha proposed to build a R&D agglomeration area in accordance with the spatial layout of "one city, one district and three bases". Among them, the "one city" is Xiangjiang Science City, which should gather global high-quality innovation resources with this as the core, make comprehensive breakthroughs in platform leadership, industrial empowerment, achievement transformation, talent gathering, ecological optimization, etc., and build a global R&D center city agglomeration area, core area, and "detonation area".

In recent years, many places have set off a boom in the construction of science cities, including Guangzhou, Wuhan, Chengdu, Chongqing, Xi'an and other cities are planning to promote the construction of science cities. On the one hand, it is conducive to enhancing the original innovation ability based on major scientific and technological infrastructure clusters, promoting the development of original basic research, and gathering scientific and technological talentsOn the other hand, the Science City focuses on the integrated development of industry, education and research, which can also drive the transformation and upgrading of related industries.

From the perspective of the geographical location of Xiangjiang Science City, it spreads along the north and south of the Xiangjiang River, spanning Changsha and Xiangtan. From the local point of view, it can not only realize the efficient flow of development factors between Changtan, but also help stimulate the industrial innovation momentum of Changsha and Xiangtan, improve the economic density and development resilience of the industries in the two cities, enhance the attraction of talents, introduce a number of enterprise R&D centers to settle down, and gradually form agglomeration benefits.

According to Changsha's plan, by 2025, there will be 2,600 innovation platforms, 3 national advanced manufacturing clusters, a total of 3.5 million talents, and 200 national-level specialized and new "little giant" enterprises, striving to achieve zero breakthroughs in national laboratories and large scientific devicesLooking forward to 2030, there will be more than 3,000 innovation platforms and more than 500 R&D enterprises (centers) to become a scientific and technological innovation center with national influence, and a global R&D center city will be initially completed.

The two major development plans of Hengqin and Qianhai were released

On 21 December, the People's Republic of China issued the "Overall Development Plan for the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin", with a planning period until 2035 and a total area of about 106 square kilometers between the "first-line" and "second-tier" areas of Hengqin Island. Among them, the "first line" between Hengqin and the Macao Special Administrative Region is set up;The area between Hengqin and other areas within the customs territory of the People's Republic of China is set as the "second line".

On the same day, the "Overall Development Plan for the Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone" was officially announced, with a total of 120 planning scopes covering the entire Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone56 square kilometers. The plan points out Qianhai's four strategic positioning, including a comprehensive deepening of reform and innovation test platform, a high-level gateway hub for opening up, a leading area for the in-depth integration of Shenzhen and Hong Kong, and a high-quality development highland for the modern service industry. The last two are new strategic positioning.
