Which city in Hebei Province is the most promising?

Considering all factors, it should be Baoding! ! Needless to say, Baoding is located in the development center of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, which is deeper than Langfang. Zhangjiakou and Chengde are located in remote areas, which can't drive areas such as central Hebei and southern Hebei, and so can Qinhuangdao in Tangshan. However, Tangshan economy has a good port, but after all, the development of heavy industry is complicated, and the new employment has not been fully started, so there will be some preferences and constraints. After all, economy is only the standard to measure the quality of a city, so is Xingtai Hengshui in Handan. Cangzhou is near the sea, but there is no natural harbor. Although Shijiazhuang is the provincial capital, people in Hebei know that Hebei 1 1 prefecture-level cities have never served Shijiazhuang and have the intention of taking the provincial capital from Baoding. Shijiazhuang will undoubtedly become the only comprehensive big city in Hebei. If there are no huge external factors, the volume gap between Shijiazhuang and Tangshan will soon narrow, and Shijiazhuang will surpass Tangshan to become the largest city in terms of economic aggregate and population in Hebei. Tangshan is not a very lucky city. In the first decade of this century, Caofeidian, as a Hebei 1 project, gave Tangshan the opportunity to reach a higher level of cities and become a regional central city. However, the global financial crisis and the deviation of its own strategic positioning make Tangshan Caofeidian more like an investment feast at no cost. Baoding has four advantages: geographical dividend, adjacent to Beijing and in the center of Hebei; Demographic dividend, the only city in Hebei province with a population of over 10 million; Urban spatial dividend, administrative division adjustment and sufficient land stock: cultural advantages, a thousand-year-old city, rich in natural and human resources. In the short to medium term, Baoding has the best advantage to play the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei card. However, the strategic focus is not to attract the administrative agencies of the capital, but to connect the industries of Beijing and Tianjin. Specifically, it includes: making use of the advantages of geography, population and land, strengthening the airport service economy through the construction of the second capital airport, and improving the R&D and transformation capacity through the Zhongguancun Science and Technology City project to form a relatively complete manufacturing industry chain. It should be noted that it is not Beijing that can really bring industrial dividends to Baoding in the future, but Tianjin Binhai New Area. Comparing the industrial structure of the two places, the pillar industries seem to be similar, but in fact there is a gradient. Baoding and Binhai New Area jointly build a manufacturing industry chain facing the global consumer market, which is not only an effective way for Baoding, but also an effective way for Hebei to make use of the dividends of national new areas and free trade zones.
