[Piloting a new journey] The Yangtze River Economic Belt opens a new voyage of development
A unified start, Vientiane update. The boat sailed in Dongting, but saw the sky above and below, and it was a blue sky. From the south of Bianshan Island to the waters of Yanzizhou, small groups of finless porpoises can be seen playing out of the water from time to time. "The appearance of the finless porpoise benefited from the gradual improvement of the water quality in East Dongting Lake." Peng Xiangming, stationmaster of Chenglingji Station of Yueyang County Fishery Administration Bureau, Hunan Province, introduced. Not long ago, Yueyang just closed the last farm in the drinking water source area of the lake area.
At 6: 30 in the morning, Zhang Hongxing, the "folk river chief" of Fanqiang Village, Bai Quan Town, Dinghai District, Zhoushan City, Zhejiang Province, went out on time and patrolled the river for two hours. Many enterprises have been set up beside the river. Every time they go to the nearest bank, they bend down to check and make sure there is no sewage discharged, then they get up and go back to the shore with peace of mind. Just after 4 pm, he "went to work" on time and started a new round of river patrol. Zhang Hongxing’s image today is hard to relate to his past status as the owner of a brick and tile factory.
Downstream from Yueyang to Zhoushan Islands surrounded by waves, the Wanli Yangtze River is unfolding a new picture of ecological civilization.
"At present and for a long time to come, we should put the restoration of the ecological environment of the Yangtze River in an overwhelming position, work together for great protection and not engage in great development." On January 5, two years ago, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader held a symposium in Chongqing to promote the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, which set the direction and tone for the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, and the mother river of the Chinese nation opened a new development voyage.
Green development and great protection highlight a new pattern.
It is the fourth time that Sheng Yiqiang, who has been "eating the lake by the lake" for generations, has changed careers.
In the warm winter sun, from the hut he built on the Liangzi Lake in Ezhou City, Hubei Province, not far away is Changling Wharf, where only three or two fishing boats dock, which is no longer the bustling old scene.
On New Year’s Day, fishing was completely banned in Ezhou, liangzi lake. A few months ago, I learned that Sheng Yiqiang invested more than 200,000 yuan to plant Chinese herbal medicines all over the pond in front of the shack. In the past few years, his weir pond has been demolished three times from raising fish, crabs and pearls to changing Chinese herbal medicines.
At present, there are more than a thousand fishermen who are facing the same transformation as him.
The Yangtze River basin covers 11 provinces and cities, and its population and GDP both exceed 40% of the whole country. Once upon a time, with the rapid economic growth and large-scale development of river basins, many industrial and domestic wastewater was directly discharged into the Yangtze River and its surrounding waters. In 2012, the data released by the Ministry of Water Resources showed that nearly 40 billion tons of the total 78.5 billion tons of wastewater discharged in China were discharged into the Yangtze River — — Almost equivalent to the water volume of a Yellow River.
A series of problems, such as insufficient systematic protection of river basins, large discharge of pollutants, and serious degradation of ecological functions, have become increasingly apparent, and the development model of doing things quickly at the expense of ecological environment has come to an end.
Adhere to the core concept and strategic positioning of problem-oriented deployment of new economic development strategy, ecological priority and green development, and reshape the Yangtze River in a transformative way.
In the wetland of East Dongting Lake National Nature Reserve, cygnets from Siberia come here and flock back. The return of migratory birds means that the move of "retiring livestock and poultry" in Yueyang City has been effective.
Yueyang, with 60% of Dongting Lake water area, is also a big city for livestock and poultry breeding in the lake area. In 2016, the city slaughtered 7,528,100 pigs, ranking second in Hunan Province; The production of aquatic products is 537,800 tons, ranking first in the province for 26 consecutive years.
On the one hand, the aquaculture industry is developing, and on the other hand, the pollution of Dongting Lake is increasing. How to solve the "water control deadlock" between the breeding market and Dongting Lake?
Yueyang’s choice is quick and messy: by the end of 2017, all 381 farms in the drinking water source area of Dongting Lake in the city had withdrawn from the historical stage. Combination punches such as illegal dock renovation occupying the Yangtze River coastline and comprehensive ban on sand mining in Dongting Lake area were simultaneously used.
"In the past, Yueyang was rich in sand and gravel, which were exported to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, but now it has to be imported from other places ‘ Import ’ The price of sand and gravel also rose from 20 yuan and 30 yuan to 150 yuan per ton. The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to promote the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt with the guidance of joint protection and no development. This has further strengthened our determination to maintain the ecology of the lake area and combat illegal sand mining. " Kun yang, deputy mayor of Yueyang City, said.
The 959 illegal docks that should be banned along the Yangtze River have all been dismantled, illegal sand mining has been initially curbed, and the pollution of heavy chemical industry along the Yangtze River and lakes has been initially rectified. The rectification of 928 black and odorous water bodies in 110 cities at or above the prefecture level has started 826 and 498 have been completed … … The special action of ecological environmental protection has drawn a sword, and hard measures have brought about real changes. As Jiang Fuyi, secretary of the Luzhou Municipal Committee of Sichuan Province, said, "The most profound change in the past two years is the change of ideas."
Innovation and development, grand strategy breeds new kinetic energy
If the long eastern coastline is like a long bow ready to go, then the Yangtze River Economic Belt is the sharp arrow that draws out of the air. The energy and strength of the arrow determine the position that our economy can reach.
Home appliances controlled by voice, translation shorthand products with speech recognition accuracy as high as 98%, and intelligent interactive technology service platform for 470,000 entrepreneurial R&D teams & HELIP; … At the headquarters of Iflytek in Hefei, Anhui Province, a series of artificial intelligence "black technology" products dazzled reporters. Relying on independent innovation, Iflytek’s artificial intelligence core technology represented by "iFLYTEK Super Brain" has been ahead of the world, successfully occupying 70% of the Chinese voice market.
The rise of Iflytek is only a microcosm. Conforming to the new round of global scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation trend, adhering to the practical benchmark of "jointly protecting and not developing" and aiming at the goal of "innovation-driven belt leading the national transformation and development", the provinces and cities in the Yangtze River Economic Belt have made great efforts to deepen the structural reform on the supply side, and made good innovation "first move", and emerging industries are gestating and growing.
In Sichuan, seven strategic emerging industries, such as information technology, new energy and high-end equipment manufacturing, are booming, and are striving to climb the "intellectual high point" of transformation and upgrading; In Hunan, the distinctive and competitive "Lugu Valley" in Changsha, "Power Valley" in Zhuzhou and "Smart Valley" in Xiangtan go hand in hand, and the development path has changed from "black" to "green"; In Hubei, the "new troika" composed of information technology, life health and intelligent manufacturing has accelerated the rise of the new "Made in Wuhan".
The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasized that innovation is the first driving force for development and the strategic support for building a modern economic system. We need vitality for reform and motivation for innovation, and the race for independent innovation in 11 provinces and cities along the Yangtze River has flourished.
Before Zhejiang’s private economy led the trend, it was also in trouble because of the "low and scattered" industry. Learning from a painful experience, Zhejiang has accelerated the cultivation of eight trillion industries, including information, finance and high-end equipment manufacturing, in recent years as the main driving force for economic growth. According to the data of the first three quarters of 2017 recently released by Zhejiang Province, the new economy represented by the digital economy accounts for 24% of GDP and contributes 31.9% to economic growth.
World-class, the only steady-state strong magnetic field device in China, the first fully superconducting nuclear fusion experimental device in the world and the only one in China, the world’s first optical quantum computer, and the world’s first quantum science experimental satellite "Mozi" & HELIP; … The scientific and technological papers handed over by the central province of Anhui are surprising.
From the high-level promotion of the construction of Hefei Comprehensive National Science Center to the high-intensity promotion of the National Laboratory of Quantum Information Science to create the "No.1 Project" of scientific and technological innovation, from the systematic promotion of comprehensive innovation reform experiments to the in-depth promotion of the "three rights" management reform of scientific and technological achievements, innovation has become the "head gun" of Anhui’s development. On December 20th, 2017, the 10th generation line of BOE was put into production ahead of schedule in Hefei New Station District, which is the first 10th generation LCD panel production line in the world. Wuhu Hangrui Aviation Power Equipment Co., Ltd. recently launched six small and medium-sized aero engines, which not only have completely independent intellectual property rights, but also fill the gap in the industry.
Shanghai Science and Technology Innovation Center has been accelerated, and 1327 state-level science and technology business incubators and about 45,000 high-tech enterprises have been built in 11 provinces and cities along the Yangtze River … … Using "fast thinking" to speed up the transformation mode, adjust the structure and change the dynamic pattern, and open up a broader development space for the Yangtze River Economic Belt.
Coordinated development, building a new thoroughfare in the big corridor
Just like the water level difference, the Yangtze River is also an economic belt with uneven development in the east, west and east.
General Secretary of the Supreme Leader talked about the construction of the Yangtze River Economic Belt on many occasions, emphasizing "coordinated development" — —
"The Yangtze River basin should strengthen cooperation, give full play to the role of inland navigation, develop river-sea combined transport, and turn the whole basin into a golden waterway."
"It is necessary to strengthen systematic thinking, coordinate local reform and development, various interregional policies, construction in various fields, and various resource elements, so as to make the synergy among provinces and cities along the Yangtze River more obvious."
How to make the "golden waterway" of the Yangtze River truly become the "water highway" and "golden artery" connecting the Yangtze River Economic Belt has become a "required question" for all provinces, cities and shipping management departments along the Yangtze River.
"The Yangtze River is in Jingjiang, and I have a deep understanding." As an old captain who has been "drifting" on the Yangtze River for almost 40 years, Huang Shuangxi, the chief captain of Changhang Freight Co., Ltd., was quite impressed. "In the past, there were 17 key navigation-obstructing beaches within the range of more than 340 kilometers from Zhicheng, Hubei Province to Chenglingji, Hunan Province, with twists and turns and dangers, and ships ran aground, hit rocks and blocked navigation frequently."
In April 2017, the Jingjiang Waterway Regulation Project, which took 27 months to build with a total investment of 4.33 billion yuan, was completed. The minimum maintenance depth in dry season was increased from 2.9 meters to 3.8 meters, and Huang Shuangxi’s fleet could also be "upgraded" to more than 3,000 tons.
"For every 0.1m increase in navigable water depth in Jingjiang section, the 2,000-ton freighter can load about 170 tons more cargo, and the profit can be increased by 10%. More importantly, the fleet is much safer! " Huang Shuangxi was beaming.
In order to further open up the "intestinal obstruction" that restricts the capacity of the Yangtze River trunk line, in early November 2017, the Hunchun waterway regulation project in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River started, opening the curtain of "Anqing-Wuhan waterway regulation project with a water depth of 6 meters and Wuhan-Yichang waterway regulation project with a water depth of 4.5 meters".
Wen Xinxiang, deputy director of the Yangtze River Waterway Bureau of the Ministry of Transport, calculated an account for the reporter: after the project is implemented, 13,000-ton inland river vessels and 10,000-ton river-sea vessels will go directly to Wuhan and 5,000-ton inland river vessels will go directly to Yichang. After 20 years of operation, Yangtze River shipping can generate direct economic benefits of 54.7 billion yuan, which will save 100 billion yuan in logistics costs compared with railways and 360 billion yuan compared with highways.
Thousands of miles away in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, shipbuilding enterprises have a heart.
Zengzhou Shipyard, located in Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province, is the first 20,000-ton river-sea through ship in China — — Zhoushan Jianghai Zhida No.1 slowly left the dock and entered the East China Sea, realizing the first water connection.
"In March this year, the ship will be put into operation on the Ningbo Zhoushan Port-Maanshan route. Compared with the same type of bulk carrier, the ship can reach the sea through the river, thus rewriting the history that 20,000-ton seagoing ships cannot pass through the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge. " Suo Xudong, deputy director of Zhoushan Port and Shipping Administration, said.
At 9 o’clock on the morning of December 27th, 2017, at Berth 6 of the container terminal in Chuanshan Port Area of Zhoushan Port, Ningbo, a container in "red suit" was steadily hoisted onto the container liner, marking that Zhoushan Port in Ningbo became the first port in the world with an annual cargo throughput exceeding "1 billion tons", ranking first in the world for nine consecutive years.
Form a port alliance with more than 20 major ports along the Yangtze River to deepen the reform of port integration and regional port cooperation … … Zhoushan River-Sea Intermodal Transport ushered in broad prospects.
Breaking the mindset of one acre and three points, in the past two years, the cooperative development mechanism of cooperation and mutual benefit and win-win has been promoted in exploration and strengthened in innovation.
From Chongqing, Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou, the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Inter-provincial Consultation and Cooperation Mechanism in the Upper Reaches of the Yangtze River were reviewed and approved, and the four capital cities of Wuhan, Changsha, Hefei and Nanchang jointly signed the Action Plan for the Cooperation of Capital Cities in the Middle Reaches of the Yangtze River (2017— 2020), from the formal establishment of the financial leasing service Yangtze River Economic Belt Alliance to the Yangtze River Basin Park Cooperation Alliance, cooperation is making the Yangtze River Economic Belt glow with a brand-new temperament … …
