The Fifth Plenary Session of the 12th Sichuan Provincial Party Committee clearly required Chengdu to strengthen the support of polar nuclear power, explore a new path for the transformation and development of a megacity, and accelerate the construction of an international gateway hub city. The Fifth Plenary Session of the 14th Chengdu Municipal Party Committee deliberated and adopted the Decision of the Chengdu Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China on Accelerating the Construction of an International Gateway Hub City and Promoting High-quality Development with High-level Opening-up (hereinafter referred to as the "Decision"). In order to implement the "Decision", the Party School of the Chengdu Municipal Party Committee and the Party School of the Wenjiang District Party Committee of Chengdu jointly held the "Accelerating the Construction of an International Gateway Hub City and Promoting High-quality Development with High-level Opening-up - Learning and Implementing the Spirit of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 12th Provincial Party Committee and the Fifth Plenary Session of the 14th Municipal Party Committee". Experts and scholars from the Party School of the Central Committee (National Academy of Administration), Sichuan University, University of International Business and Economics, Party School of Sichuan Provincial Party Committee, Political Research Office of Chengdu Municipal Party Committee, Chengdu Meizi Party School, Party School of Chengdu District (City) County Party Committee, and responsible comrades from relevant departments and towns (streets) of Wenjiang District participated in the event, focusing on "how to build an international gateway hub city to achieve high-level opening-up and promote high-quality development".
We will promote the process of Chinese-style modernization with high-level opening up, and strive to write a chapter in Chengdu's large-scale development of the western region
Chinese modernization is the modernization of an open economy, which can only be achieved through high-level opening-up. History and practice have fully proved that only by unswervingly implementing the policy of opening up to the outside world can we realize Chinese-style modernization. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that "adhere to a high level of opening up to the outside world, and accelerate the construction of a new development pattern with the domestic cycle as the main body and the domestic and international cycles reinforcing each other". It is clearly required to build a highland for inland reform and opening up, and actively participate in the dual circulation of domestic and international economies. High-level opening-up is the essence of promoting the mainland's modernization, which can promote high-quality economic development, promote the construction of a new development pattern, maintain an open world economy, and create a good external environment.
Hu Min, deputy general manager and researcher of the Publishing Group of the Central Party School (National Academy of Administration), looked back on the achievements of reform and opening up over the past 40 years, and pointed out that opening up and integration in the world today is the trend of the times, and reform and opening up is also a distinctive symbol of contemporary China. It is necessary to comprehensively and dialectically grasp the new situation of the mainland's opening up to the outside world, and since the new era, the mainland's foreign trade development has continuously achieved new breakthroughs, the attraction of foreign investment has continued to maintain a steady growth trend, and the "circle of friends" of foreign trade has been further expanded, but it is also necessary to soberly realize that the external situation facing the development of the mainland's foreign trade will be more complex and severe. It is necessary to deeply understand the spirit of the CPC Central Committee, unswervingly open up, continue to provide new opportunities for world development with new achievements in Chinese-style modernization, continuously expand high-level opening-up to bring new impetus to the world, further form a new pattern of large-scale protection, large-scale opening-up and high-quality development internally, and strive to write a new chapter in the large-scale development of the western region. In order to effectively transform geographical advantages into new advantages in opening up, Chengdu, Sichuan Province should focus on the development of new quality productivity, solidly promote high-quality development, and accelerate the construction of an international gateway hub city.
Leading high-level opening-up with institutional opening-up, pointing out the direction for Chengdu's high-level opening-up
Institutional opening-up is a new stage in the course of China's reform and opening up, and an important part of high-level opening-up. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that "promoting high-level opening-up" and "steadily expanding institutional opening-up such as rules, regulations, management, and standards", which has pointed out the direction and path for us to steadily promote institutional opening-up and promote high-level opening-up. We should deeply understand the importance of institutional opening-up to high-level opening-up, accelerate the construction of a new development pattern in which domestic and international circulations promote each other, and provide institutional guarantees for high-quality economic development.
Liu Bin, deputy dean of the School of Government and Management of the University of International Business and Economics and researcher of the National Institute of Opening Up, first analyzed the institutional opening up from the four aspects of rules, regulations, management and standards, and then discussed the inevitability of promoting institutional opening from external needs and internal needs, and finally clarified the three basic logics of what to open up, to whom to open up, and the reference system of opening up. The relationship between central and local powers, market access and content regulation, to promote institutional opening-up. He believes that Chengdu can promote institutional opening-up from the construction of the "Silk Road E-commerce" cooperation pilot zone and the construction of an international gateway hub city.
Based on the great changes in the world unseen in a century, we will seize the opportunity to accelerate the construction of an international gateway hub city
The international environment is an important condition for the development of the mainland, and any country must follow the trend in its development and judge the hour and size up the situation in order to continue to enjoy the dividends of the development of the times. As the financial center of western China, Chengdu's understanding of the current international position of the mainland is of great guiding significance for Chengdu to accurately grasp the pulse of the international market, seize strategic opportunities, and accelerate the construction of an international gateway hub city.
Li Hao, deputy director of the Western Frontier Center of Sichuan University, explained in detail that the world is undergoing great changes unseen in a century, and peace and development are still the theme of the times. He believes that the construction of an international gateway hub city faces three external risks and challenges, such as geopolitics, trade rules, and channel construction, and proposes that Chengdu should seize the opportunities of surrounding diplomacy, the construction of the "Belt and Road", the opening of strategic highlands to the west, and the new base for participating in international competition to build an international gateway hub city. Specifically, in accordance with the national strategy and neighboring diplomacy, we will take the opportunity of holding international conferences to set up topics and link topics; innovate multilateral cooperation mechanisms and deepen international exchanges and cooperation; Expand the scope of regional radiation and further extend to the European region; Relying on Chengdu's historical and cultural heritage and inheritance, promote the development of cultural industries; Integrate various elements in international trade to create a good business environment.
Strengthen the mission with high-quality development, and strive to build the core carrying area of the national strategic hinterland
The construction of a national strategic hinterland is a practical requirement of Chinese-style modernization and an important part of high-quality development. When General Secretary Xi Jinping visited Sichuan, he pointed out that "Sichuan is the strategic hinterland of the mainland's development, and has a unique and important position in the overall development of the country, especially in the implementation of the strategy of developing the western region", and put forward the important requirements of "four forces", giving Sichuan the mission and task of building "two highlands, two bases, and one barrier". Based on the positioning of "the hinterland of the national development strategy", Sichuan should grasp its own strategic position and strategic mission from the overall situation of the country, promote high-quality economic development, and promote the domestic circulation to a higher level.
Yang Zhiyuan, director of the Scientific Research Department of the Party School of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee, believes that based on the new positioning of the "hinterland of national development strategy", Sichuan's goal is to become an important growth pole and a new power source for the high-quality development of the western region as soon as possible, and to build a core carrying area of the national strategic hinterland. In this regard, Sichuan must strengthen its mission of serving the overall situation of the country, take the lead and make more contributions in the development of new quality productivity, improving the overall level of development, and solidly promoting common prosperity, and thoroughly implement the development strategy of "synchronization of the four modernizations, urban-rural integration, and co-prosperity of the five regions", and make every effort to promote high-quality development.
Promote high-quality development with high-level opening-up, and accelerate the construction of an international gateway hub city
High-level opening-up is the only way to promote high-quality development. History has fully proven that promoting reform and development through opening up is an important magic weapon for the mainland to continuously make new achievements in modernization. Chengdu has been a hub of Sino-foreign exchanges since ancient times and a pearl on the Southwest Silk Road. On the new journey, Chengdu has promoted high-quality development with high-level opening-up, and has always practiced the reform of the system and mechanism of high-level opening-up, and accelerated the construction of an international gateway hub city.
Feng Yang, deputy director of the Political Research Office of the Chengdu Municipal Party Committee, interpreted the theme and considerations of the meeting from three aspects: responsibility and mission, urban genes and strategic space, and analyzed the overall requirements, key tasks and organizational guarantees of the "Decision". In recent years, the characteristics and advantages of Chengdu's gateway hub have become more and more prominent, but there are still shortcomings and deficiencies. In view of the problems that need to be improved in the smooth efficiency of the channel system, the imperfect multimodal transport system, and the insufficient development efficiency of the logistics enabling industry, it is necessary to accelerate the construction of hub access capacity for internal and external connections, and build a three-dimensional and comprehensive open channel; In view of the problems of low industrial extroversion, poor foreign trade structure, weak foreign investment attraction, and weak commercial and trade entities, it is necessary to accelerate the construction of hub operation and research capacity for two-way allocation and build an open economic system; In view of the problems of insufficient city brand mining, insufficient agglomeration and transformation of high-end foreign affairs resources, and low level of internationalization of public services, it is necessary to accelerate the construction of diversified and inclusive hub integration capacity and deepen foreign exchanges. In view of the lack of docking of international economic and trade rules, the limited protection of foreign-related legal protection, and the need to improve the convenience of government services, it is necessary to accelerate the construction of hub service capacity in line with international standards and promote high-level institutional opening-up. In view of the low level of regional transportation accessibility, the urgent need to form an industrial circle chain development ecology, and the urgent need to improve the benefit-sharing mechanism, it is necessary to accelerate the construction of the hub radiation capacity of the east-west mutual aid and create a regional development pole.
Solve the problem of unbalanced and insufficient regional development with the idea of integration, and deepen and stabilize the rear of the national strategy
Promoting coordinated regional development is a realistic requirement to solve the problem of unbalanced and insufficient development and strive to promote high-quality development. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasized that "we will thoroughly implement the strategy of coordinated regional development, major regional strategies, main functional areas, and new urbanization strategies, optimize the layout of major productive forces, and build a regional economic layout and territorial space system with complementary advantages and high-quality development". Sichuan, Xinjiang, Qinghai and Tibet are surrounded by the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which is an important ecological highland in the mainland, the frontier of the Belt and Road Initiative, a hub area for smooth domestic and international dual circulation, and a national strategic rear. Promoting the integrated development of the "five-in-one" in the region can effectively solve the contradiction of unbalanced and insufficient regional development, and ensure that the four provinces and autonomous regions and the whole country can realize Chinese-style modernization simultaneously.
Xue Chengyou, a professor at the Institute of Municipal Conditions of the Party School of the Chengdu Municipal Party Committee, believes that Sichuan, Xinjiang, Qinghai and Tibet have a high proportion of the country's land area, rich natural geographical forms, and diverse ethnic cultures, but there are still development shortcomings such as regional resource advantages that have not yet been transformed into economic advantages and insufficient integrated development. Therefore, under the guidance of new concepts such as breaking through geographical barriers, changing the concept of land value, and breaking the traditional regional division model, the follow-up should be guided by the overall idea of clarifying strategic positioning, promoting spatial integration, formulating "industrial transfer support" policies, promoting urban transportation integration, and promoting the industrialization of resources in the vicinity of the party, and promoting regional planning coordination and regional leading construction, promoting the integration of industrial system and plateau agriculture and animal husbandry, and promoting the integration of transportation system and ecological protection. Promote the integration of talent development systems and mechanisms, and exchanges and integration with various ethnic groups.
Grasp the law of open development and scientifically promote the construction of international gateway hubs
Openness is the main theme of the times and the only way to build an international gateway hub. Chengdu bears multiple major tasks such as the joint construction of the "Belt and Road", the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, the promotion of the development of the western region in the new era, and the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Circle. Chengdu should be promoted to play a greater role in the overall opening up to the outside world, and vigorously promote the construction of Chengdu as an international gateway hub city.
Chang Xiaoming, director and professor of the Economics Teaching and Research Department of the Party School of the Chengdu Municipal Party Committee, believes that the construction of an international gateway hub city is a new task and theme for Chengdu's high-quality economic and social development in the new development stage. By studying and comparing the development law of Singapore's open hub, he believes that Chengdu's construction of an international hub city also needs to go through three stages: quantitative change, qualitative change and fusion. In the context of the transfer of China's southeast coastal industries to foreign countries and to domestic double lines, the three stages of Chengdu's construction of an international gateway hub city are not simply connected, but superimposed on each other and made efforts at the same time, so as to better promote the construction of "five hub capabilities" and promote Chengdu to achieve a higher level of opening up.
Based on the actual situation of the region, we will empower Chengdu's high-quality development with high-level industrial opening-up
As a city in the western region, Chengdu needs to have a fuller understanding of its own resource endowment and advantages in the process of industrial selection and development, take the initiative and continue to make efforts, continuously promote high-level opening-up, and seek development and growth through opening up and cooperation.
Pang Hongying, executive vice president of the Party School of Qingbaijiang District Party Committee, explained the practical background of high-level opening up with the theme of "here leads to the world", analyzed the advantages, supports and bottlenecks of the road to opening up, and proposed that it is necessary to improve the advantages of the China-Europe channel, build a national modern circulation strategic fulcrum city, and give full play to the advantages of the strategic highland of opening to the west to build the Yarong-Europe channel system.
Tan Shunlin, a teacher at the Party School of Wenjiang District Party Committee, believes that we should deeply understand the practical value of high-level opening-up, deeply grasp its core essence, combine it with regional reality, and promote high-level opening-up of regional industries by developing advantageous industries with regional characteristics, giving full play to the main position of enterprise innovation, and reserving high-quality compound talents needed for high-level opening-up. In the high-level opening up, it will draw a better picture of the city's Chinese-style modernization and thousands of meteorological Chengdu, and contribute to the strength of the district (county).
This academic salon is a pragmatic action to thoroughly implement the spirit of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 12th Provincial Party Committee and the Fifth Plenary Session of the 14th Municipal Party Committee, consciously serve Chengdu to accelerate the construction of an international gateway hub city, and promote high-quality development with high-level opening-up. Through the collision of ideas and in-depth discussions of experts and scholars, in a strong academic atmosphere, we will stimulate deeper open thinking, gather more open consensus, explore better policies for wider opening up, and form a greater open joint force, and strive to demonstrate the responsibility and unique value of the party school in the new era in the process of practicing the original intention of the party school of "cultivating talents for the party and providing advice for the party", and contribute more wisdom and strength to Chengdu's efforts to write a new chapter of opening up.
