Southern + TV review, I am Zhao Yue.
After the Spring Festival in the Year of the Dragon, how will Guangdong's economic towns plan for the development of the new year? I saw a model at the "first meeting of the new year" in Lishui in the South China Sea.
Lishui is a real manufacturing town. I saw a set of latest data at this meeting: last year, Lishui's secondary industry, as well as total industrial output and total industrial investment, ranked second in the whole South China Sea. Among all the towns and streets at the junction of Guangzhou and Foshan, Lishui is also likely to be the largest industrial town.
Moreover, there are two key indicators in Lishui that have reached a tipping point. First, the total industrial output value reached 146.7 billion yuan last year and is about to reach a new level of 150 billion yuan. Among the 32 towns and streets in Foshan, there are not many with a total industrial output value of more than 150 billion yuan.
Another indicator is GDP. Last year, Lishui's GDP reached 477800 million yuan, only one step away from breaking through the 50 billion yuan mark. Last year, Foshan proposed to build a batch of 100 billion town streets, and Lishui was also one of them.
Lishui, which has touched the threshold of 50 billion, can be said to be "people in the middle of the mountain, and boats in the middle of the stream". Looking back at 2023, from decision-making, measures, to implementation, Lishui has done a good job to achieve today's results. But as the saying goes, "the road is steeper when people reach the middle of the mountain, and the boat is more urgent when they reach the middle of the mountain". Next, how does Lishui challenge to a higher goal?
At this meeting, I can feel that the choice of the party committee and the best in Lishui is to continue to work together with the enterprise with the greatest sincerity. There are many specific measures proposed at the meeting, involving many aspects such as primary, secondary and tertiary industries and urban construction.
Among them, I think the most important is the deployment around manufacturing. In this regard, Lishui has put forward new goals around the introduction and construction of the project, R&D investment and other important indicators, which is equivalent to setting up a "military order" in front of the whole town. Focusing on these goals, Lishui announced 8 measures such as science and technology innovation leadership and financial enterprises, each of which has a "name-named" grasp, no empty words, and can be implemented soon. I think this is also the style of Lishui all along—that is, to really seek development and provide services around the needs of the enterprise.
At the meeting, I also saw an exciting growth point of water in the new year, that is, the integration of Guangzhou and Foshan. Not long ago, Nanhai District gave Lishui the mission of building a "Guangzhou-Foshan Economic and Social Integration Pioneer Town", at this conference, Lishui announced that this year to build an east-west urban development axis, take the initiative to connect with Guangzhou to the east, accelerate the construction of Guangzhou-Foshan Youth Innovation City, and promote Guangzhou-Foshan cooperation from many aspects. At this meeting, Lishui also reached a cooperation with Guangzhou Baiyun Lake Digital Science and Technology City. The Guangzhou-Foshan city has come to this day, and it is necessary to carry out more down-to-earth and effective operations at the town and street level in order to create a new situation and bring new benefits. In this regard, Lishui has the conditions to continue to be at the forefront of Foshan.
If a big town is responsible, the economy will be full of hope. In the new year, let us continue to pay attention to how to climb higher peaks in the real Lishui, Lishui in the "halfway up the mountain"!
