What are the advantages and disadvantages of Tongcheng and Huaining respectively? What are your plans for the future?

Tongcheng is the central city in the south wing of Hefei Economic Circle and the best development advantage in Anqing: 1. Private economy is very active. At present, there are two provincial economic development zones, which are being declared at the national level. 2. The cultural industry has developed rapidly. At present, Tongcheng is a provincial-level cultural city and is applying for a national-level cultural city. It has a rich cultural heritage and is transforming into a cultural industry. Tourism has also developed greatly in recent years. At present, there are three 4A-level scenic spots (Xizi Lake Eco-tourism Zone, Kongcheng Old Street and Happy World of Life Sea) and 1 3A-level scenic spot (Tongcheng Confucian Temple-Liuchi Lane). 3. High level of urbanization and rapid expansion of urban construction. As the only county-level city in Anqing, the urbanization level is of course the highest among the eight counties and cities (the urban population exceeds 200,000, accounting for more than 30% of the total population), and the urban functions are relatively perfect, with the only standard stadium (Huangmeixiang Gymnasium), five-star hotels (* * * two Jin Rui Gu Jing hotels have been opened, and Days Days Hotel is under construction), and a number of citizen parks (Longmianhe Park Sightseeing Belt and the western suburbs). 4. Location and transportation advantages, located at the intersection of Wanjiang City Belt and Hefei Economic Circle, belong to two economic belts, located between the provincial capital and Anqing City, and the only big city between the two cities, with many expressways, railways and national highways running through the whole territory. At present, the Yangtze River Freight Wharf in Sturgeon Town is also under construction, which has increased water traffic, as well as the national-level project of diverting water from the river to the nest, which will greatly increase the advantages of water traffic. 5. Policy advantages: Anqing, as one of the five county-level cities in Anhui Province, is one of the first pilot cities directly governing counties. Compared with other counties, Anqing has fewer restrictions and more exchanges with other cities inside and outside the province. In one fell swoop, it became the central city of the southern wing of Hefei Economic Circle, and increased exchanges and interactions with Hefei, Lu 'an, Huainan, Chaohu and other cities. All economic activities in the economic circle were carried out smoothly and received more policy support from the province. 6. Farmers' income is high, and villages and towns develop rapidly. As an active area of private economy, many towns and villages have their own characteristic industrial chains, and many farmers are also engaged in related industries. The traditional agricultural economy is less, and farmers' income is increased (for example, Xindu Town's packaging and printing concentrated area is National Packaging and Printing City, Fangang Town's brush making enterprise, Daguan Town's down breeding enterprise, etc.). ). Disadvantages are: 1. Tongcheng's urbanization level has been accelerated in recent years, and the urban population has increased, but some supporting measures have not kept up. For example, urban bus lines are insufficient, vehicles are relatively backward, and there is no bus service to surrounding towns, which is not conducive to people's travel and the development of surrounding towns. 2. It is a pity that there are no large-scale enterprises and no top 500 enterprises. Although there are many private enterprises in Tongcheng, there are few large state-owned enterprises or foreign-funded enterprises, mostly small and medium-sized enterprises. Although it can stimulate the local economy, it is difficult to make a big breakthrough at present. If we can attract more investment and more large-scale enterprises and foreign-funded enterprises, Tongcheng's economy will make a qualitative leap. 3. The consumption level is a bit high, and there is a bubble in the real estate economy. As a small and medium-sized city, the consumption level is not lower than that of prefecture-level cities, and the house price is artificially high (the average price in urban areas is 4000~5000, and even 7000+ in downtown areas). 4. The speed of urban construction is fast but the quality is not high. The blind development of real estate economy without good planning leads to a bit of chaos in the urban area, unpopularity in the new urban area and narrow and crowded roads in the old urban area. It is necessary to do a good job in overall planning and improve the city's taste. 5. The business is not concentrated enough to form a large-scale commercial concentration area, the commercial branches in the urban area are not concentrated enough, some commercial facilities are relatively backward, and there is a lack of large-scale commercial complexes (the MCC Plaza currently built and the Sheng Yuan Fortune Plaza to be built soon will alleviate this deficiency). Tourism has developed rapidly in recent years, but there is no good planning and the tourism market is chaotic. For example, the historical and cultural blocks in the old city have not been well protected and upgraded, and some ancient buildings and cultural relics should be protected.

Overall, Tongcheng's comprehensive strength is stronger than Huaining's, but Huaining also has its own advantages. For example, Huaining has large enterprises (conch) and certain mineral resources, and Huaining is close to Anqing city, which is likely to become a district of Anqing in the future, which will greatly help Anqing's economy.
