The Outline Of The 14Th Five Year Plan Of Hubei Province: Coordinated Regional Development, Promoting The Integration Of Urban Agglomerations And Accelerating The Construction Of Digital Hubei

? ? ? On April 12, the official website of Hubei Provincial Development and Reform Commission released the outline of the fourteenth five year plan for national economic and social development of Hubei Province and the outline of long-term goals for the year 2035 (hereinafter referred to as the "planning outline"), which defines the main tasks in 15 aspects, among which the task of "promoting regional coordinated development" highlights that Hubei Province is striving to build "one main leader, two wings driven, and whole area coordination" ”New layout of regional development.

Qin Zunwen, a researcher at the Hubei Academy of Social Sciences, said in an interview with the 21st century economic reporter that the biggest feature of Hubei's "14th five year plan" is the introduction of a new regional development layout. "Among them, the" one leader "means that Wuhan, as a major central city, and Huangshi, Ezhou, Xiaogan, Huanggang, Xianning, Xiantao, Qianjiang and Tianmen, constitute a city cluster for coordinated development. The two wings of "two wings driving" refer to the northern array composed of Xiangyang, Suizhou, Shiyan and Shennongjia urban agglomerations, and the southern array composed of Yichang, Jingzhou, Jingmen and Enshi. The two groups of urban agglomerations aim at the Hanjiang ecological economic belt and the Yangtze River economic belt to jointly connect the urban agglomeration in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and promote the high-quality development of Hubei Province. And "whole area coordination" is to vigorously promote the urbanization construction with county as an important carrier, promote the overall development of county economy, and make the massive economy bigger and stronger. "

Initial success in regional development

In recent years, the idea of regional development in Hubei has achieved good results.

Qin Zunwen cited a group of data to reporters, "the area of the entire Wuhan metropolitan area accounts for 31% of Hubei Province, the population accounts for 41%, and GDP accounts for 61%. Therefore, Wuhan metropolitan area is the main engine and main engine of economic development in Hubei Province." He said.

In Qin Zunwen's view, the "North South array" urban agglomeration in the "two wings driving" is not a passive development, but a reverse driving role at the same time. For example, Xiangyang ranks 46th in the national cities in 2019. Affected by the new epidemic situation last year, Xiangyang's GDP dropped by 5.3%, but it still stood at the 50th place in the country. "This year, Xiangyang City's city ranking may return to before 50."

According to the previously disclosed planning of Xiangyang, in 2021, the city plans to start new construction and continue to build 829 major projects with an annual planned investment of 131.8 billion yuan, 2.05 times and 1.45 times of that in 2019, respectively. Among them, 158 major projects have invested more than 1 billion yuan.

Yichang, as the head city in southern China, is speeding up the construction of phosphorus chemical industry, coal chemical industry and salt chemical industry cluster to build a national advanced manufacturing industry cluster; taking the construction of Jingyi section and Yilai expressway along the Yangtze River as an opportunity to speed up the interconnection of infrastructure; to establish tourism alliance as the breakthrough to speed up the integration of tourism development; to Yichang online gold Financial service hall, as the guide, promotes the establishment of a safe, convenient, efficient and low-cost regional financial service market.

Focus on emerging industries

At present, the four national industrial bases are located in Wuhan, which are the national storage base of Optical Valley, the aerospace industrial base of Shuangliu, the network security base of Linggang Economic Development Zone, and the Wuhan new energy and intelligent network connected Automobile Base in Hannan.

According to the planning outline, Hubei Province will concentrate its efforts and resources to promote the construction of the national storage base, accelerate the realization of technology catching up and scale upgrading, and build the national advanced storage "industrial aircraft carrier". At the same time, it will accelerate the development of Internet of things chips, Beidou chips, etc., make up for the short board of packaging and testing, improve the industrial innovation system and development ecology, and build a world-famous integrated circuit industrial base.

In terms of cutting-edge industries, the planning outline also points out that it will lay out block chain and other frontier industries, promote the in-depth integration of blockchain and artificial intelligence, big data, Internet of things and other technologies, accelerate the technological innovation, application innovation and mode innovation of blockchain, and build a block chain innovation and development cluster with national influence.

In this regard, Qin Zunwen said that the strategy of "speeding up the construction of digital Hubei" is proposed in the planning outline, which aims to combine the scientific and educational advantages of Hubei Province with the modern industrial system driven by digital, and promote the development of new industries such as digital industry by using the scientific research capacity of universities in Hubei Province. "For example, Wuhan's East Lake High Tech Development Zone and other industrial zones have relevant experience and strength in Beidou satellite navigation, geographic information system, etc., and these industrial zones can give play to the scientific and educational advantages of Hubei Province, especially Wuhan city."

On the other hand, since 2018, with the strong support of the central government, Hubei Province has accelerated industrial transformation and upgrading, promoted industrial optimization and high-quality development, and gradually become one of the main development positions of chip industry and integrated circuit industry in China.

Qin Zunwen also believes that "in addition to integrated circuits, Wuhan's hydrogen energy vehicles, intelligent connected vehicles and other new energy vehicles are also leading industries in China, and these industries have good development prospects."

At present, Wuhan Economic Development Zone is stepping up the preparation and implementation of new energy industry development plan. Previously, Wuhan Economic and Technological Development Zone issued supporting policies for hydrogen energy industry development, proposing that by 2025, it will form a 100 billion level new energy industry cluster, cultivate more than 10 key hydrogen energy enterprises, and strive to become a fuel cell vehicle demonstration city.
