"As the core area of ​​the Silk Road Economic Belt, three specific development opportunities are worthy of our special attention." On September 20th, Li Daokui, a professor of Foliman Economics at the School of Economics and Management of Tsinghua University, "2022 Silk Silk Speaking of the Core Development Summit Forum of the Road Economic Belt.

Li Daokui made a conference speech through a video connection.

In order to let everyone understand the core function of the core area of ​​the Silk Road Economic Belt, Li Daokui made a vivid metaphor: "The entire Silk Road Economic Belt is like a necklace, and the core area is equivalent to the pearls on this necklace."

Li Daokui also clearly shows his point of view in this area: the core function of the core area is the integration of resources.

He said that taking Xinjiang, the core area of ​​the Silk Road Economic Belt, it is an integrated area for funds, talents, technology, and advanced management concepts. Here, many production factors including financial elements are gathered. Later, it will radiate to countries and regions along the Silk Road Economic Belt, just like a pearl, radiate its light to the upper, lower, left and right, and various areas of the necklace.

Therefore, the function of the core area is very important, and it plays an integrated radiation core role in industrial, services, trade, etc.

So, as the core area of ​​the Silk Road Economic Belt, what opportunities should Xinjiang should seize in Xinjiang? Li Daokui believes that the three specific development opportunities are worthy of special attention.

The first is the new round of industrial revolution, especially the development opportunities brought by the energy revolution.

Li Daokui said that the three major pattern changes in the development of the world's economic development today are that the industrial revolution will bring energy green and intelligent manufacturing logistics.

Xinjiang has a unique regional advantage, with very abundant wind resources and photovoltaic solar resources, and has great development potential. Li Daokui said that Xinjiang has become an important production base for wind power equipment in my country, so Xinjiang should become the "leader" of this round of energy revolution, and become the research and development of photovoltaic equipment and power grid equipment along the "Belt and Road" in China and the entire "Belt and Road". The center of the smart grid and its management system, the center of various smart software production.

"The second development opportunity is to become the International Trade Center of the Silk Road Economic Belt." Li Daokui said that the development of the economy and region in Xinjiang lacked an outlet or even no estuary. Traditional economics theory believes that it is difficult to develop the economy without the country and region. Through the construction of the "Belt and Road", some countries currently believe that the "outlet" has been found, and this "outlet" is in Xinjiang.

He suggested that, as the core area of ​​the Silk Road Economic Belt, Xinjiang must play the role of the International Trade Center in Central Asia. By holding a variety of trade fairs, it can attract market entities in neighboring countries to participate in exhibitions, negotiate trade, and use the surrounding economies. Integrate.

He also suggested that Xinjiang cannot only be used as a transit transit station for commodity transportation in eastern China and Central Asian countries, but should be developed into a trading center of the Silk Road Economic Belt. superior.

Li Daokui believes that the third development opportunity is to build a cultural talent exchange center for the Silk Road Economic Belt. "If the personnel exchanges are through, the trade will be connected; if the talent exchanges are through, the policy will be connected. This is what we often say."

Many large cities around Xinjiang are not far from Xinjiang, and Xinjiang should develop into a talent exchange center. Li Daokui suggested that Xinjiang colleges and universities can conduct more close exchanges with higher education institutions in the surrounding countries, and regularly hold policy seminars participating in neighboring countries and Xinjiang personnel. Through such personnel, it can better drive trade investment and economic cooperation.

"Now Xinjiang has caught up with an important development opportunity." Li Daokui said that as the core area of ​​the Silk Road Economic Belt, Xinjiang can do a good job of building a regional trade center and humanistic talents on the basis of seizing the opportunity of a new round of energy revolution. This big article of the Exchange Center, "This big article is done well, I believe that the future development of Xinjiang will become better and better."
