Yuhang puts forward the new goal of "building a new urban center of Hangzhou", which makes people feel the leaping ambition of Yuhang, and also makes people further examine and think about its characteristics, advantages and mission.
In the district (county) government work report, it was clearly stated that it should build itself into a city center, and Yuhang can probably be regarded as the first.
What kind of new urban center should Yuhang District build?
The key is to identify one's core competitiveness.
Former President of China Urban Planning and Design Institute , Vice President of China Urban Planning Association Li Xiaojiang
"Look around the world and find your own position
Yuhang District has such potential"
Li Xiaojiang, known as "the idol-level figure who stands at the top of the pyramid in China's urban planning community", once presided over the coordination of the Pearl River Delta town clusters Development planning, Beijing urban spatial development strategy research, Chengdu-Chongqing urban agglomeration planning, Chongqing Liangjiang New Area planning, etc. have also "checked the pulse" of Hangzhou's development many times. In 2017, he also made a special trip to Hangzhou to participate in the "National Jiangyong Development Forum".
In his opinion, Yuhang District should look at the world to find its own position.
With the advancement of Hangzhou's spatial development, from the West Lake era to the Qiantang River era, it has supported the transfer of the city center. The 3.0 era in Hangzhou is indeed the era of the Science and Technology Innovation Corridor in the west of the city, which mainly develops "technology + ecology".
The biggest advantage of Yuhang District is that it has gathered a large number of scientific and technological talents and scientific and technological enterprises, not only from Hangzhou, but also from the Yangtze River Delta region and the country.

city center, more of the concept of central business district . Yuhang District is an area with very active industry-university-research cooperation and has strong scientific and technological innovation potential, which is its distinctive feature. With the construction of Hangzhou West Railway Station , the urban supporting functions of Yuhang District have been further improved.
Yuhang District should give full play to its unique scientific and technological innovation functions, build an urban area with low living costs, high quality of life and convenient transportation, and serve scientific and innovative talents well so that they are willing to come here to live, innovate and start businesses. For example, Beijing Zhongguancun , Shenzhen Nanshan District, etc., can naturally become "centers" by doing well in technological innovation with their own characteristics.
Beyond Hangzhou, Yuhang District should be comparable to Shanghai Hongqiao or Hefei Science City, or even stand at a higher position, open up a broader vision, and look at the world to find its own position.
"Besides, Yuhang District has such potential." He emphasized.
Dean of Nanjing Urban and Transportation Planning and Design Institute Yang Tao
"The positioning of Yuhang District should be in the direction of being similar to high-tech parks such as Silicon Valley and the North Carolina Triangle in the United States."
Yang Tao, who has participated in Going to the World The famous city of Hangzhou·New Round Urban Master Planning Series Forum and the "Future City·Hangzhou Path" urban development forum have repeatedly provided suggestions for the urban development of Hangzhou.
He believes that Yuhang District is positioning itself to build a new city center in Hangzhou. It cannot simply copy the development model of the West Lake Business District and Qianjiang New City CBD city center, but must find the unique functional positioning of this new city center.
Yuhang District is located in the core area of the Science and Technology Innovation Corridor in the west of the city. Yuhang District has a concentration of human resources and science and technology innovation resources. It has a very good foundation for ecology, culture and science and technology innovation. This is a unique advantage of Yuhang District. The positioning of Yuhang District should be in the direction of being similar to high-tech parks such as Silicon Valley and the North Carolina Triangle ( North Carolina Research Triangle Park ).
As a science and technology innovation activity center for Hangzhou to build a world-famous innovation city, it may be more suitable for the positioning of Yuhang District, and it is not necessarily an urban business center in the traditional sense.
The construction of a new urban center in Hangzhou may be the current urban positioning of Yuhang District. The suggestions given by two experts, Li Xiaojiang and Yang Tao, to Yuhang are: it is not necessary to be limited to one city, but to seek city positioning from an international perspective and in the global scientific and technological power pattern. Find development coordinates in China, become a global science and technology innovation center, and become the world's new technological energy engine.
Looking at Yuhang’s opportunities from the perspective of the world’s scientific and technological power distribution
Looking at the world and looking for positioning.
So here’s the question, if you were given an opportunity to find a position for Yuhang in the world, how would you position it?
To answer this question, perhaps we should first look at the distribution of technological power in the world. After all, when the two experts talked about Yuhang District’s unique advantages, they both mentioned “technological innovation.”
Since modern times, countries such as the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the United States, and Japan have successively formed technology innovation centers with global influence.
In 1951, the Stanford Research Park was established and became the world's first high-tech park. In 1971, the research park was renamed Silicon Valley .
At the end of the 20th century, with the development of the network economy, Silicon Valley relied on its advantages in network hardware, software, information services, etc. to become the world's leading technology park during this period. As the influence of science and technology parks grows, research institutions and enterprises continue to gather, and the geographical scope continues to expand. A world high-tech innovation center was born.
In Yuhang District, this increasingly influential science and technology park is Hangzhou Future Science and Technology City.
In 2011, Hangzhou Future Science and Technology City was established in Yuhang District. After more than 10 years of horse racing, what was once a water town rice field has now become China's most innovative and dynamic modern technology city, with 17 listed companies. More than one-third of Hangzhou's unicorns and quasi-unicorns are here.
In 2021, the number of new high-level talents at home and abroad in Future Technology City will account for 1/10 of the entire Zhejiang Province, and 1/5 of the digital economy core industry added value of Zhejiang Province will be here.
Currently, Yuhang District has gathered 372 high-end enterprise R&D institutions such as 3 national-level enterprise technology centers, 5 provincial-level new R&D institutions, and provincial key laboratories. These important scientific research tools are the powerful energy accumulated by Yuhang District to become a hot spot.
There are many global science and technology innovation centers in the world, which are the economic centers of their regions. Because the innovation center not only needs to continuously improve its scientific and technological level, but also needs the support of comprehensive economic strength.
In recent years, New York, London and other international metropolises have listed the construction of science and technology innovation centers as a new goal of urban development. The support of these global city construction science and technology innovation centers mostly relies on the city's original economic foundation.
Yuhang District has been firmly positioned as the "big brother of Zhejiang economy" for many years and is the well-deserved regional economic center of Hangzhou.
With the strong innovation power gathered in Yuhang itself, coupled with the city’s important measures to promote the construction of the Science and Technology Innovation Corridor in the west of the city, we can fully expect that the world’s innovation hotspot will fall in Hangzhou’s Yuhang District.
The future of Yuhang District
Listen to everyone’s suggestions
People living in this city also have their own suggestions for Yuhang to build a new Hangzhou city center. Most of these suggestions focus on improving urban facilities, including education, medical care, and public services. Facilities etc.
Orange Friends "Happy": Yuhang District definitely has the strength and has the potential to become the new center of Hangzhou city. However, more complete infrastructure must be built around Hangzhou West Railway Station and Hangzhou Future Science and Technology Cultural Center.
Orange Friend "City Girl": Yuhang wants to stand on the "C position" of Hangzhou not only by building high-rise buildings, but more importantly, by developing industries, especially the real economy represented by manufacturing.
Chengyou whose mobile phone number ends in "4294": If Yuhang District wants to become a new center of the city, education must keep up and provide more high-quality schools. Now, Yuhang District, especially the Future Science and Technology City, has too few kindergartens, primary schools, and middle schools.
Chengyou whose mobile phone number ends in "9500": The medical and health institutions in Yuhang are not enough, especially there are too few services for children. In addition, sports facilities also need to be further improved.
Orange friend "Zifei Yuyu": Yuhang needs to build an international sports center. Nowadays, the enthusiasm for national fitness continues to heat up. Hangzhou is in great need of large-scale football fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, children's activity centers, senior leisure areas, and fitness trails to provide citizens with better cultural and sports activities services.
A city is a city of people. The ultimate goal of urban construction is to make the people living in this city live a better life.
Yuhang District has also made it clear that it will further optimize the layout of spatial functions, expand the urban transportation framework, improve the infrastructure system, fill in the shortcomings of public services, accelerate the integrated development of urban and rural areas, and respond to the new expectations of more than 1.3 million people in Yuhang.
