I would like to express my sincere thanks to all the entrepreneurial friends who have been paying attention to Shenzhen, selected Shenzhen, supported Shenzhen and were rooted in Shenzhen for a long time!
Today, I am a investment promotion specialist. Here, let me share with you what I understand and what I think of Shenzhen.
Shenzhen was the first special economic zone established by Comrade Xi Zhongxun, the first secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, when he was in charge of Guangdong, and Comrade Deng Xiaoping, the chief designer of China’s reform and opening up, personally decided to establish. Over the past 40 years, Shenzhen has rapidly developed from a border town to an international and innovative city, becoming the earliest economic development in China to implement reform and opening up, with the greatest influence and the best construction.inemaJinjiang Special Zone is also recognized as the best-developed special zone among the more than 4,000 special economic zones in the world.
Today’s ShenzhenBabaylanZhenzhen is an important window to show the world China’s achievements in reform and opening up, and an important window for the international community to observe China’s reform and opening up. In recent years, all sectors of the world and society have paid close attention to Shenzhen, looking for the genetic code of Shenzhen’s miracle from different levels and perspectives, and exploring future development directions. In my work and life in Shenzhen every day, I constantly understand, think about and plan for Shenzhen. The longer I come into contact with it, the deeper I understand it, the more I feel that this is a city full of charm, motivation, vitality and innovation. The more I feel that this is a hot land for doing things and starting a business, a hot land with great potential, and a hot land with unlimited prospects! I am full of pride in Shenzhen’s past Cinema, and I am full of confidence in Shenzhen’s future!
This pride and confidence comes from Shenzhen being a city where reforms never stop and opening up never stops. Shenzhen is a city born due to reform and opening up, prospered by reform and opening up, and is strong because of reform and opening up. It has created more than a thousand institutional and mechanism reforms “China’s No. 1”. After the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, President Xi Jinping visited Shenzhen at the first stop of his inspection trip from Beijing and Qianhai. He visited Shenzhen again in October last year, demonstrating to the world China’s firm will to never stop reform and opening up. In recent years, we have continuously stimulated market vitality by comprehensively deepening reforms and comprehensively expanding opening up. We regard the reform of the business environment as the “No. 1 Reform Project” of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, and have issued the “20 Articles” of the business environment reform, achieving more than 160 “second approvals” and more than 460 “face-to-face approvals”. The approval time for government-invested engineering construction projects has been shortened from 90 days last year to 41 days this year. We have implemented measures such as supporting the development of the private economy and reducing costs of industrial and commercial electricity. It is expected to reduce the burden on enterprises by 140 billion yuan this year. We have created a “4Babaylan+2+2″ housing supply and security system in the country, which is what everyone calls “Shenzhen’s second housing reform”. During the 13th Five-Year Plan period, 400,000 public housing units will be built and raised, and 1.7 million units will be completed by 2035, effectively solving the housing for all kinds of people, including corporate employees.//comicmov.com/”>Cinema needs. We give full play to the role of an important open platform for Qianhai Shekou Free Trade Zone, expand foreign investment market access in a wider range of areas, fully implement the pre-entry national treatment plus negative list management system, and promote the full opening up of modern services, manufacturing, finance and other fields. What is the effectiveness of enterprises in Shenzhen’s development? It should be up to the market, enterprises have the final say, and entrepreneurs have the final say. There is a set of data that may answer this question to a certain extent. As of the end of November this year, the commercial entities in Shenzhen reached 32 in total. 40,000, of which more than 2 million enterprises have been added. In recent years, Shenzhen has increased an average of 200,000 enterprises every year, and Shenzhen’s number of commercial entities and entrepreneurial density remain the first in the country. This fully demonstrates the vitality and attractiveness of Shenzhen’s economy.
This pride and confidence comes from Shenzhen being a city that is brave and good at innovation. Innovation is the first driving force for development. When the “three come and one supplement” industry is still very popular, Shenzhen took the initiative to break the path dependence, take the lead in transforming and upgrading, and explore the development of high-tech industries. In recent years, we have insisted on taking innovation-driven as the dominant strategy of urban development and constructed href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Komiks has built a full-process innovation ecosystem chain of “basic research + technical research + achievement industrialization + science and technology finance”, focusing on urban innovation shortcomings, focusing on investment layout; focusing on independent innovation of enterprises, focusing on support and help. We plan and build major scientific research institutions such as Shenzhen-Hong Kong Science and Technology Innovation Cooperation Zone, Guangming Science City, Xilihu International Science and Education City with high standards, and build Pengcheng Laboratory and Shenzhen Bay Laboratory at a high level. We insist on a game of chess across the country, the whole province and the whole city, scientifically plan the industrial layout of Shenzhen’s national independent innovation demonstration zone, and start the construction of Shenzhen’s national new generation artificial intelligence innovation development pilot zone, becoming the first city in the country to form an independent 5G network. 45,000 5G base stations will be built in August next year, achieving full coverage of the entire city, and will provide R&D application scenarios for the vast number of innovative and entrepreneurs. Shenzhen is accelerating the construction of a comprehensive national science and technology with the responsibility of the main position. The school center. We have established the first angel investment guidance fund of 5 billion yuan in the country, established 39 sub-funds with related institutions, leveraging nearly 7 billion yuan in social capital, and supporting investment in more than 70 angel projects of start-up high-tech enterprises, effectively solving the problem of insufficient financial support for start-up enterprises. We also fully utilize the institutional advantages of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and can concentrate our efforts on major tasks. We adhere to problem-oriented approach and in line with international standards. We deepen the reform of the science and technology system from the preparation and review of project guidelines, and implement the “reward system” of project recommendations and the “invitation system” of review experts. We no longer randomly select experts from the expert database, but select review experts from all over the world based on the professional fields of the reviewed projects in a targeted manner, and promote the “main review system” of project review and the “lug-in system” of project funds, so that R&D activities fully reflect respect for knowledge and talents, and are more in line with scientific laws. We have arranged each year since last year.No less than 30% of the science and technology finance funds are invested in basic research and applied basic research. This year, 4.8 billion yuan is invested, accounting for 37% of the city’s fiscal science and technology investment, driving the whole society’s R&D investment in 2018. At present, there are 2,260 innovation carriers of various types in our city. The number of PCT international patent applications has remained above 34.8% of the country for many years, ranking first among cities in the country for 16 consecutive years. The maintenance rate of valid invention patents for more than five years ranks first among cities in the country. Shenzhen National High-tech Zone ranked second in the country. This year, the national high-tech enterprises are expected to reach 17,000, and continue to rank second among cities in the country. President Xi Jinping pointed out that Shenzhen’s high-tech industry development has become a banner of the country, and Cinema should play a demonstration and leading role. This is the honor of the city of Shenzhen, and it is also the honor of all Shenzhen enterprises and entrepreneurs.
This pride and confidence come from the fact that Shenzhen is a city that embraces all rivers and is open and inclusive. Shenzhen is an immigrant city, developed by the continuous gathering of outstanding talents from the international and domestic areas, innovation and entrepreneurship, and hard work. The city has a permanent population of 13 million, with an average age of 32 years old. They come from more than 170 countries and cover 56 ethnic groups in China. This is Shenzhen’s valuable wealth and important competitiveness. In recent years, we have adhered to the talent-first development strategy, attracted talents with a more competitive system, gathered talents with major scientific research platforms, and used talents with market-oriented approaches. We have established Shenzhen Talent Day and Shenzhen Entrepreneur Day to create a strong atmosphere of respecting knowledge, talents and entrepreneurs in the whole society, and the city’s attractiveness to talents has been continuously enhanced. Last year, the city added 500,000 new population, of which 285,000 fresh college graduates and various talents were found. Currently, the total number of talents of all kinds of Komiks in the city reached 5.48 million, accounting for 44.5% of the permanent population. Shenzhen’s rich talent resources are becoming an outstanding advantage of Shenzhen’s innovative development, and Shenzhen’s outstanding enterprises have become an important carrier for cities to attract talents. We always open our arms to all kinds of talents at home and abroad, “I love talents deeply, and I am waiting for you in Shenzhen”!
This pride and confidence come from the fact that Shenzhen is a city that is constantly improving and improving. We insist on taking the people’s yearning for a better life as our goal. Shenzhen has the third largest container port in the world, the largest land port in Asia, and one of the five major air ports in China.

Shenzhen citizens can go to famous schools and see famous doctors at their doorstep. Shenzhen is an “international garden city”, “national forest city” and “the first batch of innovation demonstration zones for national sustainable development agenda”. It is the first in the country to realize the electrification of buses and taxis, and the first pilot project to implement the electrification of engineering vehicles. The average concentration of PM2.5 is 26 micrograms/cubic meter, which is close to the EU standard. Next year, if our standard reaches 25 micrograms/cubic meter, it will meet the EU’s standard Babaylan. We have steadily promoted garbage classification work and were selected as the national pilot project of “waste-free city” construction.

We are now striving to create a civilized city for six consecutive championships. Today, Shenzhen has become a city that is suitable for living, business and tourism.
Since this year, facing a complex situation where domestic and foreign risks and challenges have increased significantly, under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, we have maintained strategic determination and done a solid job in the “six stability” work. Shenzhen’s economy has maintained overall stability, made steady progress, and achieved steady improvement in quality. In the first three quarters of this year, the city’s GDP was 1.87 trillion yuan, an increase of 6.6%, and the local general public budget revenue reached 293.9 billion yuan, an increase of 4.6%. The proportion of advanced manufacturing in the industry and modern service industry in the service industry exceeded 70%.

In August this year, the “Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Supporting Shenzhen in Building a Pilot Demonstration Zone for Socialism with Chinese Characteristics” was officially issued.

It is a major historical opportunity that we face and need to seize in the new era.
The “Outline of the Development Plan for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area” has given Shenzhen a major mission to one of the four central cities and one of the four core engines of regional development in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
