A total of 10 academicians and experts jointly contributed to the coordinated innovation and development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, discussed the opportunities and challenges of the competition and cooperation of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area urban agglomeration, and discussed the paths and directions of Dongguan's transformation and upgrading and innovation-driven development.
Wu Hongwei: Hong Kong University of Science and Technology recruits graduate students in Nansha three years later
Associate Vice President of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology said that the development environment of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is becoming increasingly mature, and Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge is open. The door to scientific research cooperation between Hong Kong and the Mainland has gradually opened, and the integration of personnel, projects and funds is moving. Hong Kong University of Science and Technology decided to open a branch in Nansha, Guangzhou, and planned to recruit the first batch of graduate students in three years and develop into undergraduate students in the future. The postgraduate positioning is mainly in three directions: artificial intelligence, big data, and machinery.
"Our management methods and assessment systems will be internationalized and maintain a first-class international level. Teachers are international recruitment, and 20% of students will want international students, 20% are local students in Hong Kong, and 60% are students in Greater China, including the Mainland and Taiwan. We are full of confidence in this development by cultivating talents for China's development and exporting soft power to the world for China." Wu Hongwei said.
Wu Hequan: All cities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area need differentiated development
Wu Hequan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and former vice president who participated in the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei plan, said that compared with the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the positioning of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is to build a world-class urban agglomeration , and the development goal has also shifted from the pursuit of expanding the economic scale in the past to focusing on high-quality innovative development.
He proposed that all regions in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area have their own characteristics and development models. The most important thing now is to coordinate development and achieve resource allocation scientifically and reasonably. In the new round of industrial transformation and upgrading, explore high-quality development models through differentiation.
Chen Qingquan: Dongguan is going to develop towards an international first-class manufacturing center
Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and Hong Kong University Honorary Professor Chen Qingquan said that the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is a once-in-a-lifetime development opportunity in this region. In collaborative innovation, we should be forward-looking, unique and advanced.
For example, Dongguan’s biggest advantage now is manufacturing, so it must develop into an international first-class manufacturing center. Taking manufacturing as the core, from the multi-dimensional perspectives of energy, information, materials, and big health, energy must also be intelligent, combined with information to solve the contradiction between traditional energy and new energy, the contradiction between primary energy and secondary energy, the contradiction between concentrated energy and distributed energy, and the contradiction between electricity and chemical energy, forming a new ecological chain.
