How does "Shanghai" become the world's barometer?

In early June, some foreign media such as the British "Daily Telegraph" generally gave a common judgment when discussing Shanghai's "restart": Shanghai's actions will have a profound impact on the global economy, which may make Europe and the United States a big wave of waves of waves in the United States and the United States. Earlier demands were released.

This concern actually points to a topic that has been widely discussed for a long time: how much Shanghai affects the world? In other words, what kind of "world influence" can Shanghai reflect?

For some of the objective indicators currently known, we can also answer these questions. In the past five years, the city's GDP has continued to cross 3 trillion yuan and 4 trillion yuan. The economic volume is undoubtedly compared with the world's top cities such as New York, Tokyo, Los Angeles, London. The number of Shanghai port container throughput, which ranked first in the world for 12 consecutive years, has reached 47.033 million standard boxes last year.

In the Twelfth Party Congress report, we can also find more forward -looking and directional answers.

The total economic volume is "in place"

The report of the Party Congress clearly states that one of the goals in the next five years is: the energy level of "world influence" has improved significantly.

The energy level here is related to some hard standards, and it is not available to people's senses. This level is not shouted by itself, but more recognition from the external world.

Talking about the energy level, you must first say the volume. If a city does not have enough economic scale, it will be difficult to reflect influence and competitiveness in global competition. According to the report of the party congress, in the next five years, Shanghai will still pursue "the economic aggregate will continue to be in the world's top cities."

However, in the moment when the urban development space is close to saturation, and the extension of the extension of the population and land resources, how can this "place" be achieved?

Last year, a total of 50 key industrial projects started in Jinshan District, Shanghai, with a total investment of 66.1 billion yuan. Among them, 18 projects belong to the secondary development of inefficient land, and 1,400 acres of land have been renovated.

A idle plant in Songjiang, rolled into Qidi Caohe (Zhongshan) Science and Technology Park 5 years ago. Since then, it has focused on the introduction of biomedical and integrated circuit -related science and technology projects. The average tax of the park has reached 2 million yuan.

These higher -output -effective economic activities have allowed Shanghai to stand out in the competition of industrial growth at home and abroad, and also leads to the key password of Shanghai's total "entry" in the global competition: economic density, science and technology intensity, talent activity, activity of talent activity Essence

In this report of the party congress, it is particularly emphasized that not only the "world -class industrial cluster is accelerated, and high -level technology independence and self -reliance have achieved major breakthroughs." Strategic scientific and technological achievements have continued to emerge. "

Obviously, the relevant indicators of "Technology", as the traction role of future economic development, have been generally recognized by all parties.

Global Rules Leading

A study shows that because of trade with China, the price of American consumer goods decreased by 0.19 percentage points per year from 2004 to 2015.

This is considered to be a benign result of China's integration of the global industrial chain in the past few decades, and it can also be regarded as a typical example of a economy that has gradually obtained the right to speak and pricing in the development of the economy.

The "world influence" of a city, the ultimate evaluation standard is nothing more than her voice and pricing power.

Over the years, Shanghai has focused on the national strategy of the "five centers" construction, and has focused on promoting various types of resources such as global capital flow, trade flow, cargo flow, technology flow, and talent flow, to Shanghai Capability has gradually increased, and the breadth and depth of external radiation are increasing.

In 2020, Shanghai rose to the fifth global ranking of globalization with the production service industry as the core of the world -class city (GAWC database), entering the "first square" international city with high gathering and service capabilities.

The report of the Party Congress further pointed out that "We must promote Shanghai to integrate more deeply into the global economic system and participate in global economic governance, so that more 'Shanghai Index' '' Shanghai Price 'Become the Bark Radio of the World Market and more' Shanghai Standards' The 'Shanghai Plan' has become the reference department of the international rules, and more 'Shanghai Innovation' 'Shanghai Brand' has become a global golden business card ", which is really enhanced the right to speak of our global factors.

Today, with the reconstruction of the global value chain, the game upgrade of the great country, "Shanghai Practice" must be a step across the step. In addition to the framework system led by the Western world, gradually innovation and establishment of "game rules" with leading and recognized in the world. In order to truly form a world -class impact.

International image "self -plastic"

However, the competition between cities is not only "hard to touch". People who can always perceive and even look forward to some urban temperament and character are often classified as "soft power" that are difficult to quantify with indicators.

"Soft power" is not only an important manifestation of urban influence, in most cases, even more far -reaching influence than "hard indicators".

At the closing ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics last year, the stunning "8 minutes" brought by the next Olympic organizer Paris impressed many audiences around the world:

The coffee shop is quietly hidden in the streets and lanes. The museum has become a "cultural public land" everywhere. These two cultural symbols constitute the civil society life of Paris and tell the story of Paris.

If you pull your sight back to Shanghai, we will find that the city's "soft power" is no less than any of any distinctive metropolis: Lujiazui, who has made the last "coat" to an art museum ; The 45 -kilometer space along the Huangpu River and the 42 -kilometer Suzhou Riverside Waterfront Line are open for the secondary; there are also developed first -time, first show, first store economy, rich cultural characteristics, open business environment, and everyone with balanced peace and equal public public. The city behind the service ...

Relying on such urban charm to achieve "the international influence of urban soft power has been significantly enhanced, and the international communication capabilities have been comprehensively enhanced." Important "Chinese practice", "become a vivid model for showing the concept of Chinese, Chinese spirit, and Chinese road to the world."

In addition, some experts also pointed out that soft and hard power can empower each other, trigger, and pull each other. Through soft power to tune and adapt, it can break through the bottleneck of hard power development. Global competition.
