Basic introduction to Lunan Economic Zone

The Lunan Economic Belt includes 43 counties (cities and districts) in 5 cities: Rizhao, Linyi, Zaozhuang, Jining, and Heze, with an area of ??50,500 square kilometers and a population of 32.105 million, accounting for 32.1% of the province respectively. and 34.5%. The central city is Jining. In 2006, the GDP of the Southern Shandong Economic Zone reached 466.64 billion yuan, an average annual growth rate of 15.2% compared with 2000, and 1.8 percentage points higher than the provincial average; the per capita GDP was more than 1,900 US dollars. Local general budget revenue reached 22.76 billion yuan, with an average annual growth of 22%. The ratio of the three industries is 14.5:53.9:31.6.

There are good basic conditions for accelerating the development of the Southern Shandong Economic Belt:

1. The geographical location is relatively superior. The area is adjacent to Jiangsu, Henan and Anhui, and is located at the eastern end of the New Eurasian Continental Bridge. It is at the intersection of the Pan-Pacific Economic Circle, the China-Japan-Korea Economic Circle and the New Eurasian Continental Bridge Economic Belt. It is also the intersection between East China and North China, the Shandong Peninsula and The Central Plains region and the junction of the Yangtze River Basin, Yellow River Basin and Huaihe River Basin. It plays a role in connecting the south and the north in the province's economic development, and can simultaneously receive radiation from the Bohai Rim Economic Circle and the Yangtze River Delta.

2. The resource advantage is relatively prominent. First, mineral resources are rich and diverse. More than 60 kinds of minerals have been discovered in this area. Among them, Jining, Heze, and Zaozhuang have predicted coal geological reserves of 45 billion tons, accounting for more than 70% of the province. Among them, 22 billion tons of proven geological reserves have been preserved, and coal output accounts for 10% of the province's total. More than 70%; Heze's predicted oil and natural gas reserves are 1.6 billion tons and 300 billion cubic meters respectively; the industrial reserves of limestone for cement are about 66 billion tons, gypsum is 37 billion tons, and granite and marble are 6 billion tons. It has the ability to build large-scale high-quality Excellent conditions for building materials base. Second, there is abundant water resources. The area has four major water systems: Nansi Lake, Zhongyun Canal, Yishu River, and the independent river flowing into the sea. The Yellow River enters Shandong from Heze. There are many rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. The total water resource is about 16.6 billion cubic meters, accounting for 54% of the province's total water resources. %, and the per capita water resources are 66% higher than the provincial average. It is the region with the richest water resources in our province. Third, labor resources are abundant. The total number of labor resources exceeds 21 million, of which 18.45 million are employed. The people in southern Shandong are honest, simple and hard-working, and the cost of human resources is low. In 2006, the average salary level of on-the-job employees was 15% lower than that of the whole province, and the salary level in Heze was 38.2% lower. Fourth, the cultural and tourism elements are rich and colorful. Confucian culture is world-famous, including the hometown of Confucius and Mencius in Jining, Liangshan, Nansi Lake, and the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, Linyi's Wen Tao Wulue, Mengshan Yishui, Zaozhuang's Guanshi Liuyuan, Heze Peony Capital, and Rizhao Binhai. Scenery, etc., there is huge potential for the development of cultural tourism, ecological tourism, and red tourism.

3. Transportation and other infrastructure are relatively complete. The area has formed a three-dimensional transportation network that crisscrosses maritime, railway, highway, aviation and inland waterway shipping. The throughput of Rizhao Port will exceed 200 million tons in 2010. It is the second largest hub port in Shandong Province and the eighth largest port in the country. The Heyan-River Railway intersects with the Beijing-Kowloon, Beijing-Shanghai and Jiaoxin Railways in southern Shandong, forming a three-vertical A horizontal railway is the main frame; highways extend in all directions, with 5 expressways and 9 national highways as the skeleton, forming an 11 vertical and 3 horizontal highway transportation network; there are two airports in Linyi and Jining in the area, and Linyi Airport has become one of the domestic medium-sized airports. A relatively busy airport; the capacity of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal south of Jining reaches 25 million tons.

4. The industrial system is relatively sound. After nearly 30 years of reform and opening up, especially the large-scale construction during the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period, the economy and society in southern Shandong have developed rapidly, laying a good industrial foundation for better and faster development. The basic position of agriculture is stable. This area is the main grain production area in the province, accounting for nearly 40% of the province's total output. There are two national-level large-scale commercial grain production bases in Jining and Heze. The output of oil crops, meat, fresh water products, and vegetables all occupy an important position in the province, and it has good conditions for the development of a modern agricultural product production and processing base. The industrial system is relatively complete, and an industrial system with energy, chemicals, medicine, machinery, building materials, textiles, clothing, and food as its pillars, a relatively complete range of categories, and strong supporting and collaborative capabilities has been initially established. The energy supply is sufficient, and the installed power generation capacity accounts for one-third of the province. A number of key enterprises and famous brand products have been cultivated. The service industry, which is dominated by trade logistics, cultural tourism, hotel and catering industry, real estate industry, etc., has developed rapidly. The Southern Shandong Economic Belt plays an important role in the economic and social development of our province. During the "11th Five-Year Plan" and in the future period, it will face many strategic opportunities to accelerate its development and construction.

1. The accelerated trend of economic globalization has brought good opportunities for Shandong to better undertake international and domestic industrial transfers. As the pace of industrial transfer in developed countries continues to accelerate, my country's coastal developed areas are also experiencing problems such as insufficient development space, shortage of land, water, electricity, and mineral resources, increasing pressure on the ecological environment, and continuous increase in business costs. Some labor-intensive and resource-intensive industries Consumption-based industries are showing the momentum of accelerating transfer. This will help the Lunan Economic Belt to undertake the transfer of advanced technology, capital and industry on a larger scale and at a higher level by virtue of its vast market, abundant labor force and lower costs.

2. National macroeconomic policy adjustments have brought environmental opportunities to accelerate the development of Southern Shandong.

The state strengthens and improves macro-control, intensifies efforts to coordinate urban and rural and regional development, further strengthens the basic status of agriculture, encourages and supports energy, service industries, infrastructure and science, education, culture and health, and supports underdeveloped areas to accelerate development. These aspects are Southern Shandong has unique advantages and provides good opportunities for the development and construction of Southern Shandong.

3. The implementation of “One Body, Two Wings” and the marine economic development strategy has brought major opportunities to accelerate the development of Southern Shandong. In order to promote the coordinated development of the province's regional economy, the provincial party committee and the provincial government proposed and implemented the "one body, two wings" and marine economic development strategies, and regarded the Lunan Economic Zone as a key development area, further increasing policy support. The Southern Shandong Economic Belt is in the stage of accelerating industrialization. Compared with developed regions, the region has stronger environmental carrying capacity, relatively sufficient various energy resources, and huge development potential and development potential. By learning from advanced development models and successful experiences at home and abroad, and giving full play to the advantages of latecomers, we can reduce the environmental cost of development, quickly catch up with advanced regions, and achieve leapfrog development. There are good conditions for accelerating the development and construction of the Southern Shandong Economic Belt, but there are still many contradictions and problems in the development, and there are also many challenges and constraints.

1. The economic aggregate is small and the competitiveness is not strong. The population and area of ??southern Shandong account for about one-third of the province respectively, but the GDP only accounts for one-fifth of the province, and local fiscal revenue is less than one-sixth of the province. The per capita GDP is only 62% of the provincial average, which is 19,800 yuan and 9,817 yuan lower than the average levels of the Shandong Peninsula urban agglomeration and the provincial capital city economic circle respectively. This region has only 4 of the province's 30 economically strong counties, but accounts for 18 of the 30 economically underdeveloped counties. There is a serious shortage of talents, especially high-level talents, little investment in science and technology, and weak innovation capabilities. In 2006, the expenditure on industrial science and technology activities above designated size in the five cities in southern Shandong accounted for only 11% of the province's total, of which research and development expenditures accounted for 9% of the province's total, and new product development expenditures were less than 7% of the province's total.

2. The industrial structure is unreasonable and the problem of industrial convergence is quite prominent. The level of industrial structure is low, the proportion of the primary industry is still high, and the degree of industrialization, standardization, and marketization needs to be improved. The scale of industrial enterprises is small, there are not enough leading enterprises with strong driving ability, and the technical content is low. They still focus on rough processing of resources, and the resource advantages are far from being transformed into commodity advantages and economic advantages. The development of the service industry lags behind and is still dominated by traditional service industries. The development of modern service industries and emerging service industries is still in its infancy. The convergence of industrial development is obvious. The pillar industries of each city are mainly concentrated in traditional industries and fields such as building materials, machinery, chemicals, and textiles. Competition within the industry is fierce, and the problem of duplication of low-tech, low-value-added products is prominent.

3. The level of industrialization and urbanization is not high, and the degree of economic export is low. In 2006, the industrial added value of the five cities in southern Shandong accounted for only 40.5% of GDP, which was 11.8 percentage points lower than that of the whole province. The cities were generally small in size and had weak driving capabilities. The urbanization rate of the population was only 37.5%, which was lower than that of the whole province. The provincial average is 8.6 percentage points. Its dependence on foreign trade is not high, its import and export scale is small, and its commodity structure is of low grade. In 2006, the total import and export value was US$9.67 billion, and the actual utilized foreign direct investment was US$960 million, accounting for only 10.1% and 9.6% of the province's total respectively.

4. There is great competition pressure in surrounding areas. As the three provinces of Jiangsu, Henan, and Anhui have introduced supportive policies, the border economies have developed rapidly, and the development of southern Shandong is facing strong competitive pressure. Therefore, accelerating the development of the Lunan Economic Belt and improving its comprehensive strength and competitiveness are of great significance for our province to consolidate its strategic hinterland and expand development space in regional economic development and competition.
