As the two richest regions in China, the economic development of the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta is the most obvious to all. Today, we will take out the three most representative cities from the two places for a rough comparison to see which side is more powerful.
Let's first take a look at the Pearl River Delta region, one of the two giants of China's economy, where the protagonist is the "Iron Triangle" of Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Guangzhou, the thousand-year-old commercial capital, occupies an important position in the economic map of the Pearl River Delta and even the whole country with its profound business heritage and innovative manufacturing vitality. Shenzhen, as the frontier window of China's reform and opening up, has given birth to a number of world-class enterprise giants under the guidance of scientific and technological innovation and Internet economy, showing amazing development speed and innovation strength. Hong Kong, with its status as an international financial center and the advantages of the world's freest economy, provides strong financial support and a broad international market for the Pearl River Delta region.
Let's take a look at the representative of the Yangtze River Delta - Jiangsu, Shanghai and Hangzhou ** Triangle. Suzhou, an ancient and modern city, has become an important base for the global manufacturing industry by relying on its developed manufacturing base and sophisticated industrial chain layout. Shanghai, as China's economic, financial, shipping and scientific and technological innovation center, has a global influence, not only has strong economic strength, but also is unique in internationalization and modernization. Hangzhou, an upstart in the digital economy, and the rise of Internet companies such as Alibaba, have made the city stand out in the global technology field and become a model for the development of the new economy.
From the data compiled on the Internet, it can be seen that the level of economic development of the two sides is comparable. In terms of total volume, Suzhou, Shanghai, Hangzhou (Suzhou 247 trillion Shanghai 472 trillion Hangzhou 201 trillion) reached a total of 919 trillion, than Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hong Kong (Guangzhou 304 trillion Shenzhen 346 trillion Hong Kong about 25 trillion) GDP is higher; But per capita, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hong Kong (20490,000) is one step ahead of Jiangsu, Shanghai and Hangzhou (1837）。In terms of land area, Jiangsu, Shanghai and Hangzhou are larger, and the permanent population is more.
Compared with the two, the Pearl River Delta and the Yangtze River Delta have their own merits. Relying on the complementary advantages of Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hong Kong, the Pearl River Delta has built a diversified industrial structure integrating manufacturing, science and technology and finance, while the Yangtze River Delta has formed a situation in which advanced manufacturing, modern service industry and emerging technology industry go hand in hand through the linkage development of Jiangsu, Shanghai and Hangzhou. Both are powerful engines of China's economy, showing strong development momentum in opening up and scientific and technological innovation, respectively.
This showdown between Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Jiangsu, Shanghai and Hangzhou is just entertainment, everyone doesn't have to be serious, don't go up, the two places give full play to their strengths, and jointly promote the prosperity and development of China's regional economy is the most important. Whether it is the Pearl River Delta or the Yangtze River Delta, they are interpreting China's speed and strength with practical actions, showing the world the infinite possibilities of China's economic and social development.
