Entering the waxing moon, the outside has been cold, but the production boom is gushing in every corner of the West Coast New Area of Qingdao City, Shandong Province.

In the Qingdao Haixiwan Shipbuilding and Offshore Industry Base, the third deep-water pipe rack of more than 200 meters in Asia, which is responsible for China National Petroleum Corporation Marine Engineering (Qingdao) Co., Ltd., is under construction and is expected to be delivered in March 2023; not far away, the last two main engines of China Shipbuilding Industry Group Diesel Engine Co., Ltd. in 2021 have completed acceptance and are sent to Taizhou, Jiangsu Province.

Not far from Haixi Bay, the bonded logistics center of the West Coast New Area bonded warehouse, all kinds of commodities from all over the world are being sorted intensely, in 2021, the bonded stock orders here exceeded 10 million, an increase of 1.5 times; and in the foxconn semiconductor high-end packaging and testing project production workshop that was just put into production on November 26, 2021, a piece of 12-inch wafer-level packaging products was orderly off the production line, filling an important part of Qingdao's core screen industry.

Statistics show that in the first three quarters of 2021, the GDP of Qingdao West Coast New Area reached 311.212 billion yuan, an increase of 11.8% year-on-year, and the overall economic situation showed a good trend. The reason is that the continuous development of the 9 industrial "chains" behind it provides a strong driving force.

In the face of the impact of the epidemic and the continuous changes in the international situation, in March 2021, Qingdao West Coast New Area based on advantageous industries and emerging industries, focusing on the industrial chain "extended chain, supplementary chain, strong chain", preferentially sorted out the new generation of semiconductors, high-end chemicals and new materials, marine biological medicine, marine marine engineering, smart home appliances, automobiles, marine cold chain, film and television culture, new economy and other 9 key industrial chains, fully implemented the "chain length system", and built a high-quality, chain group, open modern industrial system.

"We implement the 'chain chief + chain master + alliance' work promotion system in which the main leaders of the Working Committee and the Management Committee of the New District serve as the 'total chain chief', the leaders of the sub-district or the main leaders of the functional areas serve as the 'chain chief', the leading enterprises act as the 'chain master', and the alliance enterprises work together to develop, comprehensively sort out the current situation of the development of the industrial chain, formulate 'a map' and 'N lists', targeted investment and targeted attraction, from top-level design to meticulous planning, and give a comprehensive strategic promotion map." Shi Guilong, director of the Office of the Leading Group for the Work of the Key Industrial Chain Length System in the West Coast New Area and director of the Development and Reform Bureau, introduced that under the impetus of this series of measures, the resilience of the 9 industrial chains has been continuously enhanced, releasing a strong driving force for development.

With the continuous improvement of the layout of the industrial chain, the coordinated development of enterprises has more possibilities, and their competitiveness has also been effectively improved. In August 2021, Qingdao Beihai Shipbuilding Industry and CSSC Established a long-term cooperation and signed a 30-set host order agreement of 1 billion yuan, before which Bei shipbuilding industry and CMA CMA CGM signed an order for 10 5,000 container ships, marking the transformation and upgrading of the shipbuilding industry in the West Coast New Area from traditional ship types to high-end ships.

Around the major industrial chains, each industrial chain special class has formulated three-year, five-year and ten-year development goals. The figures show that from January to November 2021, the 9 industrial chains in the West Coast New Area negotiated and attracted 208 key projects, with a total investment of 306.8 billion yuan, and 140 signed and registered projects, which can achieve an annual output value of 196.2 billion yuan after reaching production. Among them, it signed a cooperation agreement with Foxconn Group on the ecological base of the electronic components industry, and it is estimated that in 2030, there will be 100 landed enterprises in the base, and the total amount of signed investment of the landing enterprises will reach 30 billion yuan.

"A blueprint drawn to the end. In the new year, we will continue to maintain a good development trend, high standards of extended chain, chain replenishment, strong chain, solid chain, accelerate the cluster development of small and medium-sized enterprises, and form a financial innovation industry ecology of innovation collaboration, capacity sharing, and supply chain interconnection.
