In the middle of the tide, thousands of sails competed, and it was time to rush to the top. The central hinterland connects the east to the west, the south to the north. Since the eighteen Party's Congress, under the guidance of general secretary Xi Jinping himself, personally deployed and personally promoted, the central region has thoroughly implemented the new development concept, constructed a new development pattern, promoted the rise of high quality, and wrote a new chapter of innovation drive, regional synergy and green rise. Independent innovation leads a new pattern of development The central region is rich in resources and developed transportation. It gathers 1 / 10 of the country's land and nearly 1 / 3 of the population. From a single province, Shanxi, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Anhui and Jiangxi have their own unique resource characteristics and development potential. In the new development stage, how can the central region write the era answer sheet of high-quality development? Since the eighteen Party Congress, general secretary Xi Jinping has visited the six provinces of central China several times, emphasizing the importance of scientific and technological innovation in promoting the rise of the central region, and guiding the central region in seeking new chapters and opening new bureaus. Spare no effort to catch up with the world's scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation just unfolding in April 2016 when general secretary Xi Jinping visited University of Science and Technology of China in Hefei. We should enhance our sense of mission and take innovation as the biggest policy to catch up and catch up with others. "At that time, I was a doctoral student at China University of science and technology, and the words and sentences said by the general secretary are still engraved in my mind, encouraging us to speed up innovation." "post-90s" Dr. Fang Yuqiang of China University of science and technology is still excited when recalling the scene at that time. Now he is a technical backbone of kedadaodun Quantum Technology Co., Ltd. In this young quantum technology company, a group of doctors with an average age of less than 30 at the University of science and technology, with the ambition of "serving the country with science and technology", started from an office with more than a dozen people and less than 100 square meters to enter the "no man's land" of the quantum technology industry. At the forum held in 2019 to promote the rise of the central region, general secretary Xi Jinping stressed the importance of improving the capability of independent innovation in key areas. In Hubei, he proposed that "the heavy weapons of a big country must be in their own hands"; In Jiangxi, he pointed out that "technological innovation is the lifeblood of enterprises"; In Anhui, he encouraged "benchmarking with world-class, strengthening frontier exploration and forward-looking layout, and strengthening the tackling of key core technologies"; In Hunan, he stressed that "the key core technologies must be firmly in our own hands" With great foresight and ardent expectation, it has stirred up the surging power of innovation and development in the central region. "Chapter 9" quantum computer, "artificial sun", compact superconducting gyrotron proton accelerator... Aiming at the forefront of world science and technology, grasping the general trend and playing a good first hand, the innovation kinetic energy of central China towards high-quality development is becoming stronger and stronger. "What you see now is the core optical rod manufacturing in the optical fiber and cable industry." in the PCVD process workshop of optical fiber preform of Changfei optical fiber and cable Co., Ltd. in Wuhan, a pipe is shuttling back and forth on a closed track. When inspecting General Secretary Xi Jinping in Hubei in 2018, he stressed that China has become the second largest economy in the world. In the past, the way of promoting economic growth relying mainly on resources input was not feasible, and we must rely on innovation. The core technology with independent intellectual property rights is the "lifeblood" of the enterprise. Enterprises must constantly make breakthroughs in core technologies, master more key technologies with independent intellectual property rights, and control the leading power of industrial development. Zhuang Dan, President of Changfei optical fiber and cable Co., Ltd., said: "today, the diameter of our optical rod has reached 23 cm, and the pulling length of a single rod can reach 10000 km. China's optical fiber has a place in the international market." Scientific and technological innovation has accumulated development potential energy. In the first half of this year, the total economic output of the central region reached 11.8 trillion yuan, which played an important role in supporting the steady development of China's economy. Regional synergy adds a new engine for development In the hinterland of central China, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River surge all the way, giving birth to the thick Chinese civilization. Towards a new era, regional integration has accelerated the reconstruction of a new pattern in Central China: in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, Wuhan metropolitan area, Changsha Zhuzhou Xiangtan Urban Agglomeration and greater Nanchang metropolitan area stand side by side; Along the Yellow River, Zhengzhou metropolitan area and central Shanxi Urban Agglomeration have formed a "corner trend"; In the East, Anhui connects the East and the west, accelerating its integration into the Yangtze River Delta. Since the eighteen Party's Congress, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has focused on "one game of chess" in the whole country and pushed the coordinated development of the region to a higher level. Nine scientific installations, nine innovation centers and two trillion Industrial Clusters... In today's eastern Hubei, a science and innovation corridor extending along the Yangtze River economic belt, starting from China's Optical Valley and connecting Wuhan, Ezhou, Huangshi, Huanggang and Xianning, is being accelerated. In 2020, Wannian Lianchuang Display Technology Co., Ltd., with an annual output of 60 million touch screens and LCD modules, will be completed and put into operation. Although the project is located in Wannian County, Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province, it is associated with "Nanchang Optical Valley". The "greater Nanchang metropolitan area" promoted the "Cross City Industrial spillover", became the "locomotive" driving the transformation and development of regional economy, and created about 50% of the GDP of Jiangxi Province. In the first year of the 14th five year plan, Hunan Province took the implementation of the Changsha Zhuzhou Xiangtan integration strategy as a key measure to promote the high-quality development of the central region, established the Changsha Zhuzhou Xiangtan integration development leading group, and defined the "ten same" task list of planning the same map, facilities the same network, three cities the same city, and market governance. Urban agglomerations and metropolitan areas are just like regional economic "engines". According to preliminary statistics, the per capita regional GDP of the urban agglomeration in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, which is only located in the central region, has exceeded 70000 yuan, and the urbanization rate of the permanent population has exceeded 60%. Feeding, temperature measurement and sampling... In the intelligent production workshop of China Baowu Maanshan Iron and Steel Group, the 300 ton converter started "one key steelmaking". 17.5 minutes, a furnace of high-quality molten steel "fresh out". "I hope you will be able to seize opportunities and take the opportunity to deepen the reform of state-owned enterprises, especially in the Yangtze River Delta, and to further develop and grow with the Yangtze River Delta." in August 2020, general secretary Xi Jinping walked into the high quality alloy bar workshop of China's Bao Wu Steel group and looked at the production operation at high temperature. The cordial care encourages the enterprise to continue to forge ahead and surpass. That year, China Baowu iron and Steel Group achieved a historic leap of "100 million tons of Baowu", which confirmed the strong toughness of China's economic development and the great potential of regional cooperation. Ding Yi, chairman of China Baowu Maanshan Iron and Steel Group, said: "we will follow the trend in the development of regional integration and strive to achieve a supporting production scale of 40 million tons of steel and a sales revenue of more than 200 billion yuan by the end of the 14th five year plan." The superposition of regional development strategies such as the rise of the central region, the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta and the development of the Yangtze River economic belt provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the central region to gather and allocate resources at a higher level and in a wider field. Before dawn, Chen Na, a fruit dealer in Henan Wanbang International Agricultural Products Logistics City, was busy: "the average fruit sent from me every day is about 100000 kg, which is sold to several nearby provinces and overseas markets." 2-hour high-speed rail circle and 2-hour aviation circle. The "land, air, network and sea" roads in Henan, the hinterland of the Central Plains, are unblocked, and the "global trading" is accelerated. In today's central China, the urban agglomeration in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and the urban agglomeration in the Central Plains have strengthened cooperation, infrastructure connectivity has been accelerated, industrial cooperation has been steadily promoted, people's livelihood and public services have been gradually shared, and the beautiful blueprint of regional coordinated development is accelerating into reality. Green rise depicts a beautiful new central region On May 21, 2019, at the Symposium on promoting the rise of the central region, general secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "carrying out ecological protection and restoration, strengthening environmental construction and governance, promoting resource intensive and intensive utilization, and building a beautiful central part of green development." The six provinces in Central China have vertical and horizontal waterways and emerald mountains, which belong to China's "important ecological land". To achieve the green and high-quality rise in the central region, general secretary Xi Jinping has been haunting the mind and planning for the chest. Walking into Youyu County, Shanxi Province, rows of neatly arranged trees are like spectacular pictures. More than 70 years ago, it was asserted by foreign experts that it was "not suitable for human habitation". General secretary Xi Jinping gave instructions to the "Youyu spirit" 6 times. When inspecting Shanxi in 2020, general secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that we should firmly establish the concept of "beautiful scenery and green hills", that is, the concept of Jinshan Yinshan, carry forward the "spirit of Youyu", and promote the management of the lake and grass system in the mountains and rivers. Today, green has become the heaviest "background color" of Youyu. Implement the ten-year fishing ban on the Yangtze River, carry out ecological restoration and compensation, implement the river (Lake) length system, issue a positive list of ecological environment supervision and law enforcement... System by system, and build a long-term mechanism for the green rise of central China; Build river ecological corridors, explore market-oriented trading of emission rights and carbon emission rights, and promote the construction of green and low-carbon demonstration areas... Innovative measures multiply the "green content" of economic development in Central China. In May this year, general secretary Xi Jinping held a forum on promoting the development of the south to North Water Diversion Project in Henan at the high quality development conference. He stressed that "we should increase the ecological protection and strengthen the protection of water resources along the south to North Water Diversion Project". "We must take the ecological environment protection in the water source area as the priority among priorities, lay down the hard work, and do everything in good faith, and keep this reservoir clean." "There is water without fish farming, mountains without grazing, and mines without development." in Zhanghe village, Jiuchong Town, Xichuan County, Nanyang City, Henan Province, the main canal of the South-to-North Water Transfer passes through the village. Zhang Jiaxiang, Secretary of the village Party branch, said that in order to protect the clear water in the first canal, the village banned aquaculture, promoted afforestation along the main canal to protect the water with green, and also exchanged soft seed pomegranate, a green industry to enrich the people. Between green waters and green mountains, more and more such transformation and development. Yu Yuneng, who used to fish in Chaohu Lake for a living, now has a new career: water keeper, responsible for the salvage of cyanobacteria in Chaohu Lake. In 2020, general secretary Xi Jinping visited the Luojia Tuan section of Chaohu dike in the eighteen ecological water storage flood storage area of Feidong County, Hefei, and said that Chaohu is the treasure of the Anhui people and the most beautiful and moving place in Hefei. We must manage Chaohu Lake well and protect the ecological wetland, so as to make Chaohu the best business card of Hefei. "General Secretary Xi Jinping is very concerned about Chaohu's ecological protection. Every day I do the work is to make the water cleaner, and let eight hundred miles Chaohu become the best name card in Hefei!" Yu Yu said. The Three Gorges of the Yangtze River have green mountains and green rivers; The two lakes in Poyang and Dongting are full of migratory birds; The Huaihe River is rich in biodiversity and wetlands... In the territory of beautiful China, the "beauty" of the central region is constantly improving, and an ecological picture of the harmonious coexistence between man and nature is slowly spreading.
