This year's government work report mentioned: Preliminary estimates, in 2021, the city's regional GDP will reach 2.78 trillion yuan, an increase of 8.3%.
In the view of Li Jing, member of the CppcC Municipal Committee and vice president of Chongqing Technology and Business University, in the past year, Chongqing's economy has undergone many positive changes. What impressed him the most was that the "gold content" of "Made in Chongqing" was greatly improved. Chongqing's auto industry has once again made a strong return and successfully achieved "Phoenix Nirvana", Chongqing SUVs have run all over the world, and Chongqing new energy vehicles can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys.
How should Chongqing seek steady progress and achieve high-quality development?
Li Jing gave four key words: scientific and technological innovation, industrial restructuring, demand expansion and talent strategy.
Keyword 1: scientific and technological innovation
Scientific and technological innovation is a key factor in achieving high-quality development, and at present, Chongqing is accelerating the construction of a scientific and technological innovation center with national influence.
How to achieve scientific and technological innovation?
Li Jing believes that we must start from four aspects, first of all, we must vigorously cultivate science and technology enterprises. Science and technology enterprises should take scientific and technological personnel as the main body, be led and founded by scientific and technological personnel, and mainly engage in scientific research, development, production, and sales of high-tech products, with the commercialization of scientific and technological achievements and technological development, technical services, technical consultation, and high-tech products as the main content. It is necessary to build science and technology enterprises into knowledge-intensive economic entities that are market-oriented and implement "self-financing, voluntary combination, independent operation, self-responsibility for profits and losses, self-development, and self-restraint."
It is necessary to increase investment in research and development. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, it is necessary to vigorously increase R&D (research and experimental development funds), the intensity of R&D investment should reach the national average, and the proportion of patents granted in the country should be steadily increased.
From the perspective of the industrial chain, we will vigorously optimize the environment for scientific and technological innovation, and actively promote the scientific and technological innovation of the key links and the integrated scientific and technological innovation of the whole link.
In addition, it is also very important to build the Western (Chongqing) Science City with high standards.
Li Jing said that it is necessary to clarify the characteristic development direction of the western (Chongqing) Science City, make use of Chongqing's industrial scale advantage in the electronic information industry, take the cutting-edge technology of the digital economy as the key breakthrough direction, grasp the scientific direction, integrate urban agglomeration, and do a good job in industrial design and cultivation of scientific and technological enterprises.
Keyword two: industrial restructuring
At present, for industries with high import dependence, the state will implement the strategy of "import substitution". For industries with high export dependence, the state will likely implement the "export to domestic sales" strategy.
In Li Jing's view, based on this background, there are three paths to the reconstruction of Chongqing's industrial chain.
First of all, it is to actively integrate into the national import substitution strategy and stabilize its own industrial chain. Electronic components and other industries have high dependence on imports, facing the problem of "card neck", and the country needs to implement an import substitution strategy.
Chongqing should face domestic demand and vigorously develop the electronic components industry. Chongqing communication equipment, computers and other electronic equipment, research and experimental development and other industries are more dependent on imports, but also to make supporting localization preparations, or the establishment of domestic purchase channels.
At the same time, we will actively expand the domestic market. In the case of shrinking external demand, communication equipment, computers, electronic components and other industries may also face the problem of export to domestic sales, and Chongqing needs to find new market space in china to ensure the smooth circulation of the national economy.
In addition, it is necessary to actively lead new demand, create an emerging industrial chain, and promote the upgrading of traditional industries.
Li Jing said that according to Chongqing's existing industrial base, deepen the division of labor between domestic regions, consolidate the industrial basic capacity, enhance the industrial anti-risk ability, and promote the increase of variety, quality and brand creation of industrial products that meet domestic demand. Actively lead new demand, create an emerging industrial chain, promote the high-end, intelligent and green of traditional industries, and develop service-oriented manufacturing.
Keyword three: demand expansion
"On the one hand, Chongqing should increase effective investment and give play to the leading role of investment." Li Jing said that the focus should be on stimulating the investment demand for infrastructure to make up for shortcomings (high-speed rail, urban rail, rural roads); activating the investment and consumption demand of the long board in the agricultural field (rural consumption, urbanization); and activating the demand for building a bottom board for people's livelihood undertakings (various people's livelihood undertakings).
On the other hand, in the new stage of development, the people's yearning for a better life has generally shifted from "whether there is one or not" to "whether it is good or not", showing diversified, multi-level and multi-faceted characteristics. Chongqing should play a leading role in the new stage of consumption, not only to actively optimize the consumption structure, but also to take the signing of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) as an opportunity to build an international consumption center city. China's implementation of large tariff reductions and exemptions for RCEP countries can allow the people to enjoy many benefits, so as to optimize the consumption structure; it is also necessary to actively improve the income level of urban and rural residents and accumulate consumption momentum.
Keyword 4: talent strategy
"Talent is the first strategic resource." Li Jing said that Chongqing should gather talents on a global scale and form a talent highland.
How to attract talents to land in Chongqing? In his view, a special talent policy is the key.
For example, the central government strives to relax the restrictions on the employment of high-end talents in the modern service industry, and implements more open and convenient policies and measures in the entry and exit of personnel and the permanent residence of foreign talents. Establish a work permit system for foreigners in Chongqing and a talent visa system. Qualified professionals in the fields of finance, architecture, planning, and design with overseas professional qualifications are allowed to provide services in Chongqing after filing for the record, and their overseas employment experience can be regarded as the same as domestic experience.
At the same time, we will formulate and improve policies and management measures for the introduction of overseas talents, and give overseas high-level talents such as scientific research and innovation leaders and teams a "green channel" for work permits, permanent or long-term residence procedures.
