China News Network Huzhou November 7 (Shi Zinan and Zhang Zemin) In the early morning of the 7th, Zhang Mingchun drove a taxi on the streets of Changxing County, Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province as usual. The flags, banners, and news from the radio in the car on both sides of the road made him understand that the 2022 China Taihu Pearl - Huzhou Changxing International Investment and Trade Talent Negotiation Conference (hereinafter referred to as the "Changzhou Contest") is here.
In 2002, the first "Changzhou Trade Fair" was held, becoming the first large-scale international economic and trade event held in Changxing's history, with more than a thousand Chinese and foreign guests attending the conference. That year, Zhang Mingchun just started driving a taxi. In
20 years, Zhang Mingchun's biggest feeling was that the city had become bigger, there were more and more high-rise buildings, and the roads became wider and tidy. "Because of the 'Chang-Trade Fair', everyone came to us to invest. Can Changxing still develop faster?" In
20 years, the "Chang-Trade Fair" witnessed the comprehensive development of Changxing's economy and society with a posture that became stronger and stronger the longer. In 20 years, "fast" has become a business card of Changxing.

Perspective of the causes behind the "Changxing Speed". As a platform for Changxing's opening up and cooperation and exchanges, the "Changxing Fair" has become one of its engines for going out of Zhejiang, radiating to the Yangtze River Delta , and going to the world.
Under the background of "accelerating the construction of a strong country in education, a strong country in science and technology, and a strong country in talents", the importance of science and technology and talents is self-evident. In the 14th Five-Year Plan, biomedicine is the main focus of China's strategic emerging industries. As early as 2017, Changxing built a biopharmaceutical platform and introduced Zhejiang Tongyuankang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.
Speaking of the choice at that time, Li Meihua, R&D director of the company's biology department, admitted that "at that time, the platform was built, and the Changxing government's investment in equipment alone reached 160 million yuan. This strategic vision, courage and determination are an attempt in the whole province and even across the country."
The settlement of Zhejiang Tongyuankang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. is just a microcosm of the good planting of "sycamore trees" in Changxing over the past 20 years. By strengthening precise investment promotion and targeted attracting, the county has more than 100 new contracts, newly started construction, and completed projects of more than 100 million yuan each year. "chain-main" projects such as Geely transmission, Geely Passenger Vehicles, and Aikang Solar have been completed and mass-produced.
Among them, the first industry of smart cars and key components has achieved "from nothing to something", and has gathered 43 industrial chain enterprises, with an output value of 15.71 billion yuan from January to August 2022, and increased by 4243.3% year-on-year; the four strategic emerging industries such as new energy, intelligent equipment, digital industry, and biomedicine have achieved a cumulative output value of 36.89 billion yuan in 2022, accounting for more than 30%.
It can be said that the "Changchang Trade Fair" is a report on the results of "change of development" with the "Window of Changxing" and is also a new starting point for illuminating the "road of future" with the "light of cooperation".
Since this year, the county has reviewed and signed 93 projects with a total investment of 60.23 billion yuan. A total of 29 projects signed on site at this "Chang-Chang-Trade Fair" with a total investment of 30.07 billion yuan, mainly covering new energy, biomedicine, smart cars and other fields, continuously injecting new vitality into Changxing's economic and social development.
The nation will prosper, and the country will be strong. Talents, especially young talents, are the new driving force for scientific and technological innovation. This is true for a nation or country, and for a county.
On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the "Changxing Trade Fair", the Changxing Branch of Zhejiang Transportation Vocational and Technical College successfully settled, which will make up for the shortcomings of Changxing's "no colleges and universities" and empower the business environment.
Zhejiang Transportation Vocational and Technical College Dean Ji Yongqing introduced that the school will set up three branches and research institutes in Changxing, including transportation and tourism, new energy vehicles, mechanics and electrical, and transportation equipment. "In the future, Changxing Branch will provide scientific and technological and innovative talents based on the advantages of local pillar industries, and gather strength for industrial upgrading and enterprise science and technology innovation."
has been in the wind and rain for 20 years. Through the window of the "Changzhou Trade Fair", Changxing is continuing to show the development potential and tremendous power of this small town in northern Zhejiang with a new attitude and steady pace. (End)
