Gaozhu New District has achieved a breakthrough in the moderate separation of economic zones and administrative zones for the first time. While promoting the free and efficient flow of economic factors across regions in Sichuan and Chongqing, it also accumulates reform experience across the country
On December 24 last year, the operating time of Chengdu-Chongqing high-speed railway successfully shortened from 1.5 hours to 62 minutes, marking that the two core cities of Chongqing and Chengdu officially entered the "one-hour era"
Sichuan and Chongqing signed an agreement at the end of last year, innovatively using the water quality of the domestic river section as the basis for allocation of ecological compensation funds, forcing the two places to increase protection efforts. Taking Sexihe as an example, if the water quality of the compensation section of Rongchang Gaodong Power Station meets the standards, Sichuan compensates Chongqing for a certain proportion of funds, otherwise Chongqing will compensate Sichuan for a certain proportion of funds

Yipian Park: Industrial cooperation has made a breakthrough
At the junction of Gaotan Town, Linshui County, Guang'an City, Sichuan Province and Zizhu Town, Chongqing Yubei District, Chongqing, a reporter from " Lookout " News Weekly boarded the viewing platform and looked up. The neat and standardized factories were located at the foot of Huaying Mountain . This is the first cross-provincial new district approved by the provincial level of Sichuan and Chongqing at the end of last year - Gaozhu New District.
"Guang'an and Yubei respectively selected cadres to form the Gaozhu New District Management Committee, and jointly invested in the establishment of the Gaozhu Development Company. Policies such as land, finance and taxation, and talents will be used in a good manner and integrated with each other." Chen Jie, member of the Standing Committee of the Guang'an Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Party Committee of the Sichuan-Chongqing Gaozhu New District Preparatory Committee, said that the two sides will achieve the integration of planning, basic supporting facilities, and transportation construction.
, whether in Sichuan and Chongqing or the whole country, the high degree of isomorphism between economic zones and administrative zones is not conducive to the free and efficient flow of economic factors.
Liu Zhangquan, deputy director of the Standing Committee of the People's Congress of Yubei District and director of the Preparatory Committee of the Sichuan-Chongqing Gaozhu New District, said that since the start of construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin Cities Economic Circle, Gaozhu New District has achieved a breakthrough in the moderate separation of economic zones and administrative zones for the first time. While promoting the free and efficient flow of economic factors across regions, it also accumulates reform experience across the country.
The core area of Gaozhu New District is the Gaotan Park, which was previously jointly built by Sichuan and Chongqing. It has attracted 129 companies to settle in, of which about 70% are from Chongqing, and about 80% of the products are equipped with Chongqing. Sichuan Ruichuang Automobile Technology Company, which was first to settle in
, was invested and established by Chongqing enterprises, and mainly formulates vehicle models, interior and exterior design plans for Chongqing Changan Automobile and other vehicle manufacturers. "Here, Guang'an's relatively low land and labor costs can be combined with Chongqing's high-level technical support and innovative policy support, so that the company's development space will be greater." said the relevant person in charge of the company.
Today’s Gaozhu New District has become the focus of attention and a “hot land” for investment. Since its official establishment at the end of last year, Gaozhu New District has received nearly 200 inspections and investigations from all over the country. On March 30, Gaozhu New District ushered in its first concentrated project signing, with a total of 18 industrial projects and 18 infrastructure projects signed, with an agreed investment of 148 billion yuan, and 23 financial institutions intended to grant a credit of 116 billion yuan to Gaozhu New District.
Huang Chaoyong, deputy secretary-general of the Chongqing Municipal Party Committee and executive deputy director of the Reform Office, introduced that Sichuan and Chongqing have jointly issued the "Promotion Plan for the Cooperation and Co-construction of Regional Development Function Platform for the Adjacent Areas of Sichuan and Chongqing", and coordinated and guided the integrated development of adjacent areas through the joint construction of industrial parks and other methods. 10 inter-provincial cooperation and co-construction platforms, including Sichuan and Chongqing Gaozhu New District and Sui (Ning) Tong (South) Integrated Development Pilot Zone, have started construction.
Road: Connectivity accelerates the promotion of
Walk into the adjacent area of western Chongqing and southern Sichuan, a "Shuangchang Avenue" with a two-way 6 lanes, a total length of 35 kilometers, and free toll-free "Shuangchang Avenue". Some sections of the road have been completed and opened to traffic. This is one of the major cooperation projects launched by Rongchang District of Chongqing and Longchang City, Neijiang City, Sichuan Province this year.
"This road connects to the west to the expressway to reach Chengdu Tianfu Avenue and to the east to the central urban area of Chongqing. It not only reduces the logistics costs of the two places, but also connects an industrial belt." said Chang Xiaoyong, member of the Standing Committee of the Rongchang District Party Committee and Executive Deputy District Mayor.
transportation infrastructure is one of the main shortcomings of Chengdu-Chongqing region and is also the top priority of Sichuan-Chongqing cooperation. Nowadays, not only are the "capillaries" such as Shuangchang Avenue becoming more and more unobstructed, but the "orta" such as the Chengdu-Chongqing High-speed Railway have also been upgraded.
Since June last year, the Chengdu-Chongqing High-speed Railway has achieved innovative improvements in infrastructure equipment, maintenance technology, disaster prevention technology, detection technology, electronic ticket technology, etc., and the speed per hour has been increased from 300 kilometers to 350 kilometers per hour.
On December 24 last year, the operating time of Chengdu-Chongqing high-speed railway was successfully shortened from 1.5 hours to 62 minutes, marking that the two core cities of Chongqing and Chengdu officially entered the "one-hour era".
"After the Chengdu-Chongqing high-speed railway was upgraded, it officially realized the operation of public transportation. 87.5 pairs of mobile vehicles were arranged every day, and an average of one high-speed train was launched every 20 minutes." The head of the relevant department of China National Railway Group Co., Ltd. told reporters.
At present, the interconnection of transportation infrastructure between Sichuan and Chongqing is accelerating. In terms of railways, the high-speed railway from Chengdu to Dazhou to 1 Wanzhou high-speed railways are being constructed, and the construction of Chongqing and Kunqu are accelerating; in terms of highways, there are 13 inter-provincial expressway channels in Sichuan and Chongqing, of which 6 are under construction; in terms of aviation, the Chengdu Tianfu Airport has been basically completed, and the Chongqing Jiangbei Airport expansion project is being carried out smoothly; in terms of shipping, the upstream channel improvement and cascade channelization of Yangtze River are being steadily promoted, the construction of the Fujiang Shuangjiang Navigation Hub is being carried out, and the construction of the Jialing Jiang Lize Shipping Hub is being accelerated.
A city: collaborative innovation to form a joint force
The "Clinical early warning, pathogenesis and innovative drugs research on Acute kidney injury " project jointly applied by Sichuan University and Chongqing Medical University Second Affiliated Hospital has recently obtained 2 million yuan in funding support from Sichuan and Chongqing. The two parties will cooperate to establish an early warning model for acute kidney injury based on the medical data of tertiary hospitals in Sichuan and Chongqing, and develop drugs for treating acute kidney injury.
Since the start of construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin Cities Economic Circle, Sichuan and Chongqing have cooperated to build the Western Science City, and used this as a carrier to invest 10 million yuan respectively to jointly implement 15 key R&D projects around the two key areas of big health and artificial intelligence.
Among them, in the field of big health, the two sides will carry out technological innovations in the fields of major infectious disease prevention and control, green planting of authentic medicinal materials, and targeted cancer therapy drugs; in the field of artificial intelligence, the two sides will organize research on key core technologies in the fields of photoelectric hybrid artificial intelligence chips, low-orbit satellite positioning enhancement services, and intelligent control of high-speed train operation, and strive to break through the technical bottlenecks of industrial transformation and upgrading.
, as one of the 15 key R&D projects jointly implemented by Sichuan and Chongqing, has received 1.5 million yuan in project support for the "Research on Key Technologies for Intelligent Control of High-speed Train Operations by Southwest Jiaotong University and Chongqing Jiaotong University " project jointly applied for by Southwest Jiaotong University , and has received 1.5 million yuan in project funding. Research on optimization control technology based on artificial intelligence will be carried out for the Chengdu-Chongqing Middle Line High-speed Railway with a speed of 400 kilometers per hour to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the high-speed railway.
At the same time, Sichuan and Chongqing are accelerating the co-construction of scientific and technological resource sharing and technology transfer service platforms. Platforms such as ultra-transient matter science experimental devices and ultra-high rail transit tests have started construction, and Chengdu Supercomputing Center has been completed and put into use. The "Sichuan-Chongqing Science and Technology Resource Sharing Service Platform" has been basically completed and launched. The platform integrates more than 12,000 large-scale instruments and equipment with a total value of about 8.53 billion yuan in Sichuan and Chongqing, and opens and shares them to Sichuan-Chongqing innovation entities.
In addition, Sichuan and Chongqing have cooperated to establish a 5 billion yuan science and technology innovation mother fund, with the first 1 billion yuan focus on investing in science and technology innovation enterprises in biomedicine, artificial intelligence, integrated circuits, intelligent manufacturing and other fields.
One River: The results of ecological co-governance have begun to show
On April 7, a professional drift team jointly funded by the two places are working in the Sexi River at the junction of Rongchang District, Chongqing and Lu County, Sichuan. After a while, the clearing boat was filled with water hyacinth , water celery , branches, bamboo and leaves, etc. The river surface was rippling with blue waves, and it was clean. On the shore of
, the adjacent Qingjiang Town of Rongchang and the river chiefs of Fangdong Town, Lu County are jointly carrying out river patrols and supervising the work of clearing the drift. At the national-controlled section water quality monitoring station of the Gaodong Power Station in the Sexi River not far away, all water quality indicators are stable and maintained above Class III standards.
" Rongchang has established cooperative co-management mechanisms such as collaborative meetings, cross-checking, joint law enforcement, etc. with adjacent cities and counties in Sichuan. The problem of 'one section of each' has been fundamentally solved." Chang Xiaoyong said.
In addition, Sichuan and Chongqing signed an agreement at the end of last year to innovatively use the water quality of the river section in the country as the basis for allocation of ecological compensation funds, forcing the two places to increase protection efforts. Taking Sexi River as an example, if the water quality of the compensation section of Rongchang Gaodong Power Station meets the standards, Sichuan will compensate Chongqing for a certain proportion of funds, otherwise Chongqing will compensate Sichuan for a certain proportion of funds.
As an ecological barrier in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, Sichuan and Chongqing have reshaped a series of working mechanisms, and the pattern of jointly managing the ecological environment has been formed, guarding the green waters and green mountains of Bashu.
Since the Chongqing Ecological Environment Bureau and Sichuan Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment signed the "Agreement on Deepening Joint Prevention and Control of Air Pollution in Sichuan and Chongqing", "White List Cooperation Mechanism for Cross-Provincial and Municipal Transfer of Hazardous Wastes", "Joint Law Enforcement Work Mechanism" and other relevant agreements on April 1 last year, the two places have established mechanisms from the aspects of joint prevention and control of air pollution, cross-provincial and municipal transfer of hazardous waste, joint environmental law enforcement, etc., and have continuously promoted coordinated cooperation and resource sharing in Sichuan and Chongqing.
This is also the first provincial and municipal department agreement in Sichuan and Chongqing since the central government made a major strategic decision to promote the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin Cities Economic Circle. Up to now, Sichuan and Chongqing have signed more than 50 cooperation agreements in the field of ecological environment.
Over the past year, one agreement after another is being transformed into practical actions - in terms of water pollution prevention and control, the two sides are jointly promoting the pilot project of joint prevention and control of cross-border rivers; in terms of air pollution prevention and control, adjacent areas have carried out five rounds of joint assistance, inspected 242 enterprises, and handed over 159 problem clues; in terms of hazardous waste transfer, the two places directly approved 143 applications for cross-provincial transfer of hazardous waste in accordance with the "whitelist" system; in terms of joint law enforcement, 24 VOCs-related enterprises in the two places have been conducted, and 27 problems have been found and handed over.
One belt: The cultural and tourism corridor first took shape
In April last year, Chongqing Hongya Cave and Chengdu Kuanzhai Alley jointly launched the "Kuanhong Large-scale" combination, becoming the first cooperative project for the two places to jointly build the Bashu Cultural Tourism Corridor. This move was jokingly claimed by netizens that Chengdu and Chongqing, who were "loved and killed each other", finally became a pair of CPs.
Deputy District Mayor of Yuzhong District, Chongqing City Wei Chuanzhong said that the two sides strive to jointly build a service system, share development platforms, and improve publicity and marketing mechanisms. For example, create the Kuanzhai Alley theme scene in Hongyadong , create the Hongyadong theme scene in Kuanzhai Alley, and hold the "Twin Cities Guide" cultural and tourism food exhibition, jointly launch the Chengdu-Chongqing consumption route map, and promote the Chengdu-Chongqing characteristic culture to the whole country.
For more than a year, Sichuan and Chongqing have formed a joint working mechanism for cultural and tourism cooperation, and the "Bashu Cultural Tourism Corridor Construction Plan" has also started to be compiled. Sichuan, Chongqing and cities, districts and counties have cooperated in areas such as mutual recognition of tourists, mutual benefit of tickets, publicity interaction, and line interconnection. A Bashu cultural tourism corridor has begun to take shape.
is not just a "magnanimous" combination. As the only world cultural heritage in the middle of Chengdu and Chongqing, Dazu stone carving has also become an important fulcrum for win-win cooperation between Sichuan and Chongqing.
On May 17 last year, Chongqing Dazu District and Sichuan Meishan City signed a cooperation agreement on the integration of cultural and tourism development. The direct bus to the two-way tourist attractions of Dazu to Meishan was officially opened. On the basis of point-to-point between scenic spots, the two sides have launched a small-scale personalized "group tour" of 5 to 10 people, and opened a "private customized" version of the boutique travel route. Visitors can travel easily by making an appointment online.
On November 18 last year, Dazu Stone Carvings and Sichuan Ziyang Anyue Stone Carvings were jointly awarded the title of "New Landmark of Bashu Cultural Tourism Corridor". Taking the construction of the Bashu Cultural Tourism Corridor as an opportunity, the two places are accelerating the construction of an international cultural and tourism city with stone carving culture as the core. Taking projects such as the "Ten Miles of Hetang" and the stone carving cultural and creative park demonstration film as the driving force, we will jointly build the Dazu Ziyang cultural and tourism integration development demonstration zone.
Dazu also links world cultural heritage sites such as Qingcheng Mountain, Dujiangyan , Emei Mountain , Leshan Giant Buddha , and formed a regional cultural tourism promotion alliance to create a fine cultural tourism route for Bashu. "We will implement mutual recognition of tourists, mutual benefit of tickets, and publicity and interaction, enhance the influence of Dazu Stone Carving International Tourism and Culture Festival and other festivals, and build an internationally renowned tourist destination with international style, Chinese style and Bashu rhyme." said Tian Guihu, director of the Dazu District Development and Reform Commission.
Chongqing Jiangjin , Yongchuan and other districts and counties have also signed cooperation agreements with cities and counties such as Yibin, Sichuan, Ziyang , Leshan , Zigong , and jointly created more than 70 cross-provincial tourism routes, including the ancient Bashu ruins cultural exploration route, the golden waterway ecological tourism route of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, the world heritage of stone carving art, and the ancient Bashu road cultural tourism route.
