Kailin Brick, the creator and curator of the "Five Seasons" exhibition, bluntly said that natural ecology is a common issue that human beings need to face together, just like beautiful art, regardless of borders. He was deeply impressed by Hainan's excellent ecological environment. This is an important reason for his active participation in the 2022 Hainan Island Spring International Art Exhibition.

At the opening ceremony of the exhibition "Secret Creatures - Wild World in the Lens of Photographers from Four Countries", Ou Hanqing, Cultural Counsellor of the Swedish Embassy in China, expressed the hope that through this trip to Haikou, more cooperation will continue to be carried out in art exhibitions and other aspects in the future.

Behind the artistic creation and design is the vision of the development of industrial cooperation. The British Consulate General in Guangzhou is the organizer of the "Five Seasons" exhibition, and the British Consul General in Guangzhou, He Songya, said that this is also a good case of cooperation between the UK and Hainan in the creative and cultural industries.

Since 2018, especially since the release of the "Overall Plan", relying on the preferential policies of the free trade port in fiscal, taxation, trade and other aspects, the potential of Hainan in the whole chain of the design industry is increasingly emerging - the demand side is expanding, such as the new district planning stimulates the demand for architectural design, the public's demand for cultural and artistic life is increasing, etc.; the supply side is increasing, such as the development of high-tech industries to attract more enterprises and talents engaged in industrial design.

According to the preliminary statistics of the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, there are more than 90,000 enterprises involved in design work in the province before 2020, and more than 150,000 in 2021. Shen Jun, director of the Industrial Development Division of the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, said: "The increase trend is very obvious, which also urges us to further focus on the construction of Hainan International Design Island and do a good job in relevant guidance, service and support." ”

Focus on industrial extension and build "four beams and eight pillars"

Take the "tough school" and "literary and artistic school" as the important starting point, and make use of the advantages to make up for the shortcomings

In May 2021, the Hainan International Design Island Work Class Office was established, which is located in the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology.

Why is the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology picking the beams?

At present, the national refinement of the design industry is mainly divided into four categories: visual communication design, product design, architectural and environmental design, and other types of design, and each major category contains a number of sub-categories. Proceeding from the current reality of our province, industrial design, architectural design and the design of cultural and creative products occupy a major position.

"As a category in the product design category, industrial design is a significant role in the global design industry, directly affecting the development of a new type of industry in a place. A key reason for placing this work in the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology is to grasp industrial design and make it one of the driving forces that truly promote the development of the international design island and free trade port industry. Shen Jun introduced that another reason is that from the perspective of responsibilities and functions, the industrial and information technology department pays more attention to the entity when grasping the work of the international design island, and attaches importance to the extension and development of the manufacturing industry.

Up to now, the construction of Hainan International Design Island has initially built up "four beams and eight pillars". "Four beams" refers to four guiding documents: "Accelerating the Construction of Hainan International Design Island Overall Work Plan (2021-2023)", "Hainan International Design Island Demonstration Base Management Measures", and "Hainan International Design Island Industrial Development Plan" and "Hainan International Design Island Construction Plan" are being accelerated.

"Eight Pillars" is 8 specific work deployments, including the construction of design industry agglomeration areas, the identification of a number of design industry demonstration bases, the identification of provincial industrial design centers, the planning and construction of tourism commodity research institutes, the organization of international design forums and a series of events, the establishment of design alliances, the planning of design industry policy systems, and the establishment of talent training mechanisms in cooperation with universities.

As a phased result, the "Overall Work Plan for Accelerating the Construction of Hainan International Design Island (2021-2023)" further clarifies the goals and tasks of the past three years: according to research and evaluation, it is expected that by 2023, a relatively complete design industry policy system, promotion mechanism, development model, etc. will be established in Hainan, and a number of demonstration bases and enterprise teams will be cultivated.

Although the construction of the free trade port has allowed Hainan to release some potential in all aspects of the design industry, objectively speaking, the shortcomings are still obvious, especially for industrial design, there are difficulties such as weak industrial foundation, low market demand, and lack of talents. "We must actively use the advantages of the Hainan Free Trade Port to make up for the shortcomings, for example, the design work is breaking the restrictions of physical space, and Hainan's excellent ecological environment can attract more practitioners." Hu Bo, deputy director of the Industrial Development Department of the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, said.

It is worth mentioning that since 2021, 8 of the "eight pillars" are being fully promoted and have achieved remarkable results -

In 2021, the 4th International College Students Tourism Culture creative design competition received 6,200 copies and a total of more than 20,000 design works from 422 universities in many countries (regions) around the world.

In October 2021, the first Hainan International Yacht Design Competition kicked off, attracting more than 200 designers from China, the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands and other countries and regions.

The "International Design Port" built by Haikou Jiangdong New Area has attracted more than 20 design enterprises such as Paiwude Architectural Design (Hainan) Co., Ltd. and Xianen Environmental Art (Hainan) Co., Ltd., which have initially formed a agglomeration effect.

In addition, the results of the 2021 red dot design award, one of the three top international design awards, were announced at the beginning of the year, and the works of Yan Hong, associate professor of Hainan University, stood out from more than 10,000 entries in more than 60 countries and regions around the world and won the 2021 Red Dot Communication Design Award. This is the first time that the Hainan design community has won the award.

At the same time, Hainan has also played a "special card" and joined hands with relevant enterprises to plan the construction of tourism commodity design and research institutes.

In terms of identifying the demonstration base of Hainan International Design Island, it is divided into an operational design industry demonstration base based on industrial design and architectural design, and a cultural inheritance design demonstration base based on cultural and artistic design. The "Tough School" and the "Literary and Art School" are all important starting points for the construction of Hainan International Design Island.

Docking the real economy and promoting the transformation of achievements

Strive to build Hainan into a gathering place and creative harbor for the international design industry

At present, the Juneng Science and Technology Innovation Research Institute (hereinafter referred to as the Innovation Institute), located in the Shiziling Industrial Park of Haikou High-tech Zone, is actively applying for the certification of the Hainan International Design Island Demonstration Base. This is an innovation and entrepreneurship incubation platform founded in 2016, focusing on environmental protection new materials, aerospace big data and other industry fields as the key research direction, closely docking the real economy, and is committed to building a demonstration base for incubating high-tech products and design products.

"The design industry is one of the industrial positioning of our park. Since 2018, the number of registered design-related enterprises in the park has increased from more than 150 to more than 500. At the same time, we are also actively doing a good job in related design services, such as a creative design company incubated by the Innovation Institute, with its understanding of the park and incubated enterprises, we can efficiently help the park to build and promote corporate brands. Xu Jia, vice president of Juneng Science and Technology Innovation Research Institute, introduced that as of now, with the active assistance of the Innovation Institute, it has helped related enterprises apply for 613 patents, and has granted a total of 373 patents.

Alexei Nikonov is an architectural designer from Ukraine who came to Hainan in 2015 and is currently working at Hainan Lecheng Construction Technology Co., Ltd., where the company is located in the Innovation Institute. In the past few years since coming to Hainan, he has successively participated in the design of Wenchang Aerospace Supercomputing Center and Haikou Hongqi Town Yibilang 10,000 Mu Coconut Grove Planning.

"I love to travel, and when I learned that Hainan has a pleasant climate and that there is a great demand for architectural design due to industrial development, I immediately came to Hainan." Alexei said he hopes that more creative design talents will gather here and make Hainan Island more and more fashionable through the joint efforts of everyone.

The status of the design link in the industrial chain has become more and more obvious, which is also an important reason for Hainan to actively implement the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee and accelerate the layout and construction of Hainan International Design Island. The design itself belongs to the "superstructure", the huge industrial support and market demand is the basis on which it depends, and the construction of the "four beams and eight pillars" is to accelerate the gathering of various elements related to the design in the Hainan Free Trade Port.

"In the next step, we will carry out the construction of Hainan International Design Island in an orderly manner, and strive to build Hainan Free Trade Port into a gathering place and creative port for the international design industry." The relevant person in charge of the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology said.

Shao Pengming, vice president and researcher of the Hainan Institute of Industrial Economics, believes that the construction of Hainan International Design Island is conducive to achieving "two transformations" from an economic point of view: First, the transformation of smart capital into development momentum. The exertion of modern human capital not only needs the incentives of the physical environment such as treatment and promotion, but also the support of intangible environments such as time, the harmonious integration of people and the natural environment. The construction of an international design island in Hainan is conducive to giving full play to the advantages of Hainan's beautiful natural environment and so on, so that talents can better exert their wisdom and creativity. The second is to realize the transformation of policy advantages into economic results. Hainan Free Trade Port is becoming a new benchmark for comprehensively deepening reform and opening up in the new era, and has certain regional particularities and advantages in the introduction, use and evaluation of talents, and the construction of Hainan International Design Island is more conducive to giving play to the advantages of the upstream "industrial chain" of talents, applying their new ideas and new thinking to various types of design, promoting the head cognition and thinking innovation of various industries, thus transforming into economic results.
