Changzhou officially announced that it has entered the "trillion club".
Recently, the WeChat public account "Changzhou Release" issued a document saying that in 2023, Changzhou will enter the city of trillions with high quality.
It was once only one step away from a trillion-dollar city
With the convening of the "two sessions" of districts and counties, the data released by the six administrative regions under the jurisdiction of Changzhou show that in 2023, each district is expected to complete the cumulative sum of regional GDP throughout the year, and the total amount has exceeded one trillion yuan.
Among them, Liyang City is expected to achieve a GDP of 155 billion yuan, Jintan District is expected to be 130 billion yuan, Wujin District is expected to be 324 billion yuan, Xinbei District is expected to be 211 billion yuan, Tianning District is expected to be 97 billion yuan, and Zhonglou District is expected to complete more than 94 billion yuan.
In 2022, Changzhou's GDP will reach 955.01 billion yuan, one step away from trillions. In 2023, Changzhou's GDP in the first three quarters will reach 700.61 billion yuan, an increase of 6.7%, ranking first in southern Jiangsu. According to the city's Bureau of Statistics, the output value of the new energy manufacturing sector in the first three quarters of 2023 increased by 19.9%, contributing 130.7% to the growth of the city's industrial output value above the designated size, of which the output value of new energy vehicles, power batteries and photovoltaics increased by 146.8%, 8.5% and 11.0% respectively.
Looking at Jiangsu, in addition to Changzhou, Xuzhou is also approaching the trillion threshold. Xuzhou's GDP in 2022 will be 845.8 billion yuan, ranking sixth in the province. The city's GDP in the first three quarters of 2023 will be 659.3 billion, with a growth rate of 7%.
Jiangsu has become the province with the most trillion cities
Changzhou's official announcement means that the "trillion club" will be expanded to 25 cities.
From the perspective of chronological order, Shanghai's GDP took the lead in exceeding one trillion yuan in 2006, Beijing's GDP exceeded one trillion yuan in 2008, Guangzhou's GDP exceeded one trillion yuan in 2010, Shenzhen, Tianjin, Suzhou, and Chongqing exceeded one trillion yuan in 2011, Wuhan and Chengdu exceeded one trillion yuan in 2014, Hangzhou's GDP exceeded one trillion yuan in 2015, Nanjing and Qingdao's GDP exceeded 1 trillion yuan in 2016, Wuxi's and Changsha's GDP exceeded one trillion yuan in 2017, and Ningbo, Zhengzhou's GDP exceeded one trillion yuan, Foshan's total GDP exceeded one trillion yuan in 2019, Fuzhou, Quanzhou, Nantong, Hefei, Xi'an, and Jinan exceeded one trillion yuan in 2020, Dongguan's GDP exceeded one trillion yuan in 2021, and Changzhou's GDP exceeded one trillion yuan in 2023.
Judging from the distribution area of the trillion city, the south is far ahead. In terms of provinces, including 4 municipalities directly under the central government (Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing, Tianjin), Jiangsu (Suzhou, Nanjing, Wuxi, Nantong, Changzhou) has 5 trillion cities, Guangdong (Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Foshan, Dongguan) has 4 trillion cities, Zhejiang (Hangzhou, Ningbo), Fujian (Fuzhou, Quanzhou), Shandong (Qingdao, Jinan) each has 2 trillion cities. In addition, there are Chengdu, Wuhan, Changsha, Zhengzhou, Hefei and Xi'an.
After becoming the first province in China with a GDP of more than 12 trillion yuan in 2021, Guangdong will approach 13 trillion yuan in 2022, reaching 12,911.858 billion yuan. After Dongguan entered the "trillion club" in 2021, Guangdong has 4 trillion cities. In 2022, Shenzhen ranked first in the province with a total GDP of 3,238.768 billion yuan, Guangzhou ranked second in the province with a total GDP of 2,883.9 billion yuan, Foshan ranked third in the province with a total GDP of 1,269.839 billion yuan, and Dongguan ranked fourth in the province with a total GDP of 1,120.032 billion yuan.
Jiangsu will have 4 trillion cities in 2020, namely Suzhou, Nanjing, Wuxi, and Nantong. In 2022, Jiangsu's GDP will exceed 12 trillion yuan, reaching 12,287.56 billion yuan. Suzhou ranked first in the province with a total GDP of 2,395.83 billion yuan, Nanjing ranked second in the province with a total GDP of 1,690.785 billion yuan, Wuxi ranked fourth in the province with a total GDP of 1,485.082 billion yuan in 2022, and Nantong ranked fourth in the province with a total GDP of 1,137.96 billion yuan. In 2023, Changzhou will enter the city of trillions, which also makes Jiangsu the province with the most trillion cities.
Ranked among the trillion-level cities
What did Changzhou do right?
It is true that it is not uncommon to have one more trillion city, but Changzhou has made great strides into the "trillion club" with its non-dominant geographical area and population, and its development efficiency is indeed amazing.
"Crossing the trillion-level threshold is the inevitable result of Changzhou's industrial layout and accumulation over the past decades. Hu Xiaowu, executive dean of the Institute of Urban Sciences of Nanjing University, said that in recent years, Changzhou has been developing steadily and continuously at a high growth rate, which is also due to the city's remarkable achievements on the new track. "From the rapid development of the manufacturing industry to the unique development of the photovoltaic industry, and then to the dominance of new energy vehicles and their supporting industries, Changzhou can always seize the domestic and even global outlets. ”
Manufacturing is the thickest foundation and the most distinctive background color in Changzhou. The key to Changzhou's development is to firmly guard the "roots" of the manufacturing industry.
The complete industrial categories and industrial system make the construction of Changzhou a new energy capital a matter of course. Driving growth, Changzhou has played the trump card of "new energy".
Tracing the development of the new energy industry in ordinary state, the 50s of the last century began to get involved in transformer manufacturing, the wire and cable industry began to take shape in the 80s, the photovoltaic industry started in an all-round way at the beginning of this century, and began to try power batteries around 2010...... This is inseparable from Changzhou's solid industrial foundation.
Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain. On the basis of development, Changzhou has built a new energy industry chain structure of "2+5+N" (two vehicle companies + 5 power battery manufacturers + many upstream and downstream parts enterprises), and also issued the "Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the Construction of a New Energy Capital" and "Policies and Measures for Changzhou to Promote the Construction of a New Energy Capital" at the beginning of 2023, sounding the clarion call to build Changzhou into a leading Yangtze River Delta, a national leader, and a globally influential "new energy capital".
It can be said that it is the keen vision and perfect supporting policies that make Changzhou, the "dream factory", continue to take advantage of the momentum.
