Chen Hongyu, former vice president of the Party School of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee: Three national strategies drive Shenzhen's digital transformation

Shenzhen News Network, May 12, 2021 (Shenzhen Special Economic Zone News reporter Liu Lianglong) Today, Shenzhen is facing major opportunities for the construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and the construction of the Shenzhen Pilot Demonstration Zone, and also undertakes the important mission of comprehensive reform pilots. A few days ago, in connection with the implementation of the spirit of the Seventh Party Congress of Shenzhen Municipality, and centering on the theme of Shenzhen fulfilling the new mission of the new era at the intersection of these three major national strategies, Professor Chen Hongyu, former vice president of the Party School of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, accepted an exclusive interview with this reporter. He proposed that Shenzhen's digital transformation should be driven by three national strategic tasks, and efforts should be made to use digital transformation to cope with new challenges, "in other words, it is necessary to strive to integrate the digital economy, digital government and digital society."

Chen Hongyu pointed out that Shenzhen, as a super-large city, has made a good exploration in using intelligent and digital means to solve the governance problems of mega-cities, but it still needs to further carry out digital reform in terms of digital public services and digital public product supply.

"When we used to talk about digital government, we were mainly satisfied with the government's overall work efficiency and governance efficiency. Shenzhen's three major national strategies hitch a ride on the express train of the development of the digital age, which requires that the government's services must be more efficient, and every part and every detail must be transformed. Chen Hongyu said that Shenzhen's digital transformation will greatly improve the level of rule of law, science, refinement and intelligence of urban governance, a stable, fair, transparent and predictable world-class legal business environment will basically take shape, and the city will be more livable, more resilient and more intelligent, and it is expected to become a model for the modern governance of super-large cities.

Chen Hongyu mentioned that the report of the Seventh Party Congress of Shenzhen Put Forward Ten Key Work Arrangements, systematically deployed the problem of "how to do it", and is the "road map" for Shenzhen to move from a "single champion" to an "all-round champion". These ten key work arrangements almost all reflect the theme of how Shenzhen fulfills its new mission in the new era at the intersection of the three major national strategies.

The state requires Shenzhen to be a pioneering demonstration area of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and it requires Shenzhen to develop in an all-round way, because our entire socialism with Chinese characteristics must solve a series of new contradictions and new problems in the new stage, and Shenzhen must make its own explorations, strive and create experiences and practices that can be learned, and continue to explore the way for the reform and opening up of the whole country with the spirit of daring to break through and dare to try. "The strategic positioning of high-quality development highlands, rule of law city demonstrations, urban civilization models, people's livelihood happiness benchmarks, and sustainable development pioneers, and Shenzhen as a demonstration area of socialism with Chinese characteristics, requires that these five aspects must become the benchmark of the whole country." It is necessary to use Shenzhen's own practice and exploration to answer why the COMMUNIST Party of China can do so in the new era, in the new stage and new pattern, why Marxism works, and why socialism with Chinese characteristics is good. ”

Chen Hongyu stressed that shenzhen, as a pilot city for comprehensive reform in the whole country, should promote reform and opening up at a higher goal, and solve the problem of how to obtain new development momentum through reform and opening up in Shenzhen from a higher breadth and depth, a higher level, and a higher quality. "Therefore, I personally believe that the convergence of the three major national strategies in Shenzhen has put forward higher goals and requirements for Shenzhen, and if these are development opportunities, it is to force Shenzhen to further reform, further open up, force Shenzhen to transform, to innovate, and to force Shenzhen to undertake more of the most important tasks of promoting the coordinated development of the entire region, promoting and promoting mutual cooperation between the mainland and Hong Kong and Macao."
