A number of inter-provincial roads have been opened, batches of inter-provincial industrial projects have been implemented, and a number of inter-provincial government service matters have been completed efficiently...... In recent years, the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta has made great strides forward, and the achievements are obvious to all, and the overall strength and comprehensive competitiveness of the Yangtze River Delta region continue to rank among the top in the country, becoming an important window to demonstrate the superiority of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics and an important platform for the mainland to participate in international competition and cooperation.
The new situation, new mission, and new pattern require new actions, new practices, and new practices. The Yangtze River Delta should move forward hand in hand, overcome difficulties, closely follow the two keywords of integration and high quality, enhance the awareness of integration, adhere to the idea of a game of chess, and promote new breakthroughs in the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta with more pragmatic and efficient cooperation. For Anhui, in accordance with the work deployment of the Seventh Plenary Session of the 11th Provincial Party Committee, we should adhere to the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta as the biggest dividend, promote the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta to a deeper and wider field, and help the Yangtze River Delta region better play the role of a power source for high-quality development.

The high-speed rail "public transportation" runs smoothly in the Yangtze River Delta
On October 11, the Xuanji high-speed railway was opened, opening up the fast passage to the south of Wuhu, Xuancheng and other cities.
Hearing the news of the opening of the high-speed railway, Xiao Wang, a citizen of Huangshan who is studying at Anhui Normal University, was overjoyed. She told reporters that she used to return to Huangshan City from Wuhu, to Chaohu East Station to transfer, the journey will take at least two or three hours, after the opening of the Xuanji high-speed railway, Wuhu Station to Huangshan North Station only 1 hour and 20 minutes.
High-speed rail is profoundly changing the way Chinese travel. In particular, after the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta has become a national strategy, the construction of the "Yangtze River Delta on the track" has been accelerated, and the densest high-speed rail network is being weaved. As a sub-central city in Anhui Province, Wuhu has rapidly entered the "high-speed rail era" from scratch in the past ten years.
In June 2015, the Hefu high-speed railway was put into operation, Anhui added a high-speed rail artery, and the running time of the fastest train from Hefei to Fuzhou was shortened from 8 hours to 4 hours.
In December 2015, the first train of Ning'an high-speed railway departed from Wuhu Station, which means that Nanjing's fast passage connecting Ma'anshan, Wuhu, Chizhou, Tongling, Anqing and Anhui along the Yangtze River was opened, and Wuhu urban area officially entered the era of high-speed rail. The time from Wuhu to Nanjing has been shortened from more than 2 hours to more than 30 minutes.
On June 28, 2020, the Hehu section of the Shanghe-Hangzhou high-speed railway (Hefei to Huzhou) was officially put into operation, and the north-south corridor running through Anhui was fully connected. Hefei, Wuhu and Xuancheng enter the 1-hour metropolitan area, and the high-speed rail passes through Wuhu in Wuhu through Wuhu North and Wuhu, Wuhu South and Wanlanan 4 stations, Wuhu takes the lead in realizing the county and county high-speed rail, and the high-speed rail directly connects more than 20 provincial capitals across the country.
This year, the Chihuang high-speed railway and the Xuanji high-speed railway have been successfully connected, further opening up the southbound passage of Wuhu, Chizhou and other places, and further consolidating and upgrading the status of Wuhu as a regional railway hub.
By the end of this year, the Shanghai-Suzhou-Lake high-speed railway will be completed and put into operation, making the commute from Wuhu to Shanghai more convenient. The Shanghai-Suzhou-Lake high-speed railway is an extension of the Shanghe-Hangzhou high-speed railway to Shanghai, which will form a new railway passenger channel between the Yangtze River Delta and the central and western regions. Wuhu is an important node station on the Shanghe-Hangzhou high-speed railway line. After the completion and opening of the Shanghai-Suzhou-Lake high-speed railway, Wuhu to Shanghai will have a second high-speed rail corridor, and the operation time of the high-speed railway between Wuhu and Shanghai will be shortened from about 3 hours to about 1.5 hours.
"We are still planning a high-speed railway from Wuhu to Changzhou, and rail transit will continue to extend to the Yangtze River Delta, and Wuhu's status as a regional railway hub in the Yangtze River Delta will be further consolidated and improved in the future." Wei Bo, director of the Wuhu Railway Construction Management Office, said.
The integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta and the construction of railways are one of the landmark achievements, providing strong support for the higher-quality development of the region. Up to now, the Yangtze River Delta region has 26 high-speed railways, with an operating mileage of more than 14,500 kilometers, accounting for about 9% of the country's total mileage, of which the high-speed rail mileage exceeds 7,200 kilometers, accounting for about 15% of the country's total mileage.
In recent years, Anhui has accelerated the construction of "Anhui on the track", interconnected with Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and continuously encrypted and optimized the high-speed rail network. With the opening of the Xuanji high-speed railway, the total scale of Anhui's railway network has reached 5,737 kilometers, of which high-speed rail accounts for nearly half, basically forming a modern railway network with Hefei as the center, high-speed rail and intercity railway as the skeleton, and covering all provinces and municipalities.
The leapfrog development of rail transit has greatly shortened the time and space distance between cities in the Yangtze River Delta. At present, the shortest railway travel time from Hefei to Nanjing is 50 minutes, 110 pairs of direct high-speed rail and bullet trains, and within 2 hours to Shanghai and Hangzhou, and the number of direct high-speed rail and bullet trains is more than 80 pairs and 70 pairs respectively, basically realizing public transportation.

Hangzhou and Huang jointly build the "most beautiful tourism corridor"
On September 28, the Huangshan Performing Arts City of Huixiu ·, jointly invested and constructed by Huangshan Tourism Development Co., Ltd. and Zhexiu Performing Arts Group, was officially opened, which is a new exploration of the integration of Huizhou's history and culture and modern tourism model, and a new achievement in the construction of Hangzhou's world-class natural ecology and cultural tourism corridor.
Huangshan and Hangzhou are connected by mountains and rivers, and have been connected by ancient cultures, people, and frequent economic interactions. After the opening of the Hangzhou-Huangzhou high-speed railway, the time and space distance between the two places has been greatly shortened, connecting 6 world heritage sites, 7 5A-level scenic spots and more than 50 4A-level scenic spots distributed along the line, promoting tourism cooperation between the two places to a new stage.
In 2020, Anhui and Zhejiang provinces signed the "Strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement on Jointly Building a World-class Natural Ecological and Cultural Tourism Corridor in Hangzhou and Huangzhou"; In 2021, the cities of Hangzhou and Huangshan jointly issued the "Construction Plan for the Pilot Zone for Ecological and Cultural Tourism Cooperation in Hangzhou-Huangshan Adjacent Blocks (Chun'an and Shexian)"; In 2022, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism issued and implemented the "Hangzhou and Huangshan World-class Natural Ecological and Cultural Tourism Corridor Construction Plan", which clearly proposes to build a Yangtze River Delta nature protection and restoration demonstration belt, a national green development model area, and a world-renowned tourist destination based on the advantages of high-quality natural ecological and cultural tourism resources in Hangzhou and Huangshan.
According to the person in charge of the Huangshan Mayor's Triangle Office, in recent years, Huangshan and Hangzhou have jointly built the Xin'an River-Qiandao Lake Ecological Environment Joint Protection Cooperation Zone, jointly prepared relevant plans, jointly planned key projects, built tourist destinations with integrated development, and accelerated the construction of a world-class natural ecological and cultural tourism corridor in Hangzhou and Huangshan. At present, the Huangshan-Qiandao Lake Expressway has been completed and opened to traffic; The Xin'anjiang-Qiandao Lake route was selected as a pilot of domestic waterway tourist passenger transport boutique routes; The 350-kilometer-long "Anhui and Zhejiang No. 1 Tourist Scenic Road" has been preliminarily completed, and along the Xin'an River, photography, self-driving, camping, outdoor sports, rural tourism and other formats and products between Huangshan and Hangzhou have been strung together.
In May this year, the Hangzhou-Huangshan World-class Natural Ecological and Cultural Tourism Corridor Inter-provincial Cooperation Promotion Conference was held in Lin'an District, Hangzhou, and the cooperation agreement between Huangshan and Hangzhou was signed on the spot, and the reciprocal policy of free admission for cultural tourism in more than 30 scenic spots was jointly released, and 8 "Hangzhou-Huang World-class Corridor Golden Tour Routes" were launched, and project cooperation such as "Xin'an River Poetry and Painting Corridor" and "Self-driving Tour and RV Camping Strategic Cooperation Pilot Zone" were carried out.
It is understood that since the beginning of this year, the relevant departments of Huangshan and Hangzhou have jointly released major industrial projects along the Hangzhou-Huangshan world-class corridor, signed the "Memorandum of Cooperation on Law Enforcement in the Tourism Market", launched the joint construction of the silver economy and the promotion of green health and health activities, and launched the brand of "Hangzhou and Huang - China's drunken beauty landscape tour".
"The government departments have strongly promoted, and the market players in Huangshan and Hangzhou have also continued to deepen cooperation and actively participate in the construction of world-class corridors." Cheng Yan, director of the Huangshan Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism, said that on the eve of the National Day, Huangshan Tourism Development Co., Ltd. and Ant Group launched the jointly created Huangshan Space Intelligent Twin in the Huangshan Scenic Area, creating the first "full AI escort" scenic spot in China.
From product linkage, mutual delivery of tourists, to market co-promotion and project cooperation, the construction of Hangzhou-Huangzhou's world-class natural ecology and cultural tourism corridor is becoming more and more stable, and is becoming a beautiful landscape, regional cooperation line, and development line for enriching the people, and Hangzhou and Huangzhou have also changed from "upstream and downstream" to "family". According to data provided by the Huangshan Investment Promotion Bureau, from January to September this year, 13 tourism cooperation projects were signed between Huangshan and Hangzhou, with an agreed investment of 1.37 billion yuan.

"One place and six counties" collaborative innovation
In the golden autumn season, in the SMT workshop of Anhui Nuodajia Intelligent Manufacturing Technology Co., Ltd., located in the Guangde area of the Yangtze River Delta (Xuancheng) Industrial Cooperation Zone (hereinafter referred to as the "Changhe Zone"), the production lines are running at full capacity, automatic patching, printing, and online testing...... Workers are producing in an orderly manner.
"It is very close to Suzhou, Shanghai, Nanjing and other cities, and the local government has a strong sense of service and the business environment is reassuring." Gao Shifan, the relevant person in charge of the company, introduced that they settled in Changhe District with Weihao and Dingwei three Suzhou optoelectronic enterprises last year, from industrial computers to LCD panels and touch screens, and moved a complete industrial chain to Guangde City, deducing the "three brothers story" of industrial transfer.
Wang Changsheng, the main person in charge of the Changhe District Management Committee and the full-time deputy director of the Management Committee of the Xuancheng Suzhou-Anhui Cooperation Demonstration Zone, said that from January to September this year, 42 new projects of more than 100 million yuan were signed in Changhe District, a year-on-year increase of 17.69%; The total investment was 35.559 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 38.78%. Among them, the average investment of a single project is 850 million yuan, which is 2.2 times the average level of Xuancheng City.
As the only provincial municipality adjacent to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, Xuancheng City is located in the geographical center of the Yangtze River Delta and the radiation center of the four major metropolitan areas of Shanghai, Nanjing and Hangzhou. In recent years, the city has focused on the strategic goal of "catching up with Jiangsu and Zhejiang, striving to be the first in Jianghuai", closely following the two keywords of integration and high quality, and accelerating the construction of a modern city in the central area of the Yangtze River Delta.
As early as 2018, the National Development and Reform Commission approved the "Development Plan for Suzhou-Anhui (Liyang, Langxi, Guangde) Cooperation Demonstration Zone", which for the first time took counties as units and ecology as the background to promote the integrated development of inter-provincial border areas. In 2020, it will be expanded to "one place and six counties", including the "enclave" Baimaoling Farm in Shanghai, Yixing and Liyang in Jiangsu, Changxing and Anji in Zhejiang, and Langxi and Guangde in Xuancheng, achieving full coverage of the responsible entities of one city and three provinces in the Yangtze River Delta.
"We will take the 'one place and six counties' industrial cooperation zone as the 'No. 1 project' that is deeply integrated into the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta." Gao Zhencheng, director of the Xuancheng Development and Reform Commission, said that in order to build a high-energy industrial cooperation platform with high identification, strong agglomeration and more significant driving effect, promote the cross-provincial and cross-regional coordinated development of "one place and six counties", and better demonstrate the industrial agglomeration, last autumn, the city relied on the inter-provincial adjacent areas of Guangde City, Langxi County and Xuanzhou District to formally establish a Changhe District with a planning area of 85 square kilometers, and actively planned to build an overall spatial pattern of industrial development of "one district and three areas". In the same year, the Xuancheng Science and Technology Innovation Center of the G60 Science and Technology Innovation Corridor of the Yangtze River Delta was established in Shanghai to promote the flow of factors between itself and other G60 cities.
"In order to promote the construction of the Changhe Zone at a high level, we focus on the three leading industries of new energy, auto parts and high-end equipment manufacturing, and strive to build a model area for the transformation of achievements of 'lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets', a green intelligent manufacturing transfer agglomeration area in the Yangtze River Delta and a demonstration area for industrial cooperation adjacent to Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui." According to the relevant person in charge of the Xuancheng Municipal Government, through continuous efforts, it will strive to form a modern industrial cluster with distinctive characteristics by 2025 and become one of the most dynamic and fastest-growing areas in the Yangtze River Delta. By 2030, it will become a demonstration model of the new system and mechanism of innovative and integrated development of "one place and six counties", and one of the most influential inter-provincial adjacent development demonstration zones in the Yangtze River Delta.

Counterpart cooperation "close to each other"
During the National Day holiday, Lu'an ushered in a wave of rural tourism boom. The city received a total of 4,527,300 tourists, including 235,000 tourists from Shanghai, a year-on-year increase of 21.13%. The supply and demand of 320 boutique B&Bs in the city are booming, with a comprehensive occupancy rate of more than 85%, of which tourists from Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang account for nearly 30%.
Recently, Yao Wanhe, a citizen of Shanghai who avoided the peak of the National Day crowd, took his wife and stayed at a homestay near the Paradise Village Scenic Area. He is a regular customer of this B&B and has a soft spot for the scenery of Dabie Mountain. "The scenery is beautiful, the air is good, the B&B conditions are first-class, and I have to come with my friends three or four times a year after I retire." Yao Wanhe said.
What makes Shanghai citizens love is not only the scenery of Dabie Mountain, but also the green food. This year's "Five-Year Shopping Festival· Gaopin into Shanghai Lu'an Week" held in Shanghai is the second time to bring Lu'an's high-quality products to Shanghai, and the offline exhibition area is linked to the online exhibition hall, focusing on the display of 246 famous and high-quality specialties such as Lu'an melon slices, Huoshan dendrobium, Wanxi white goose, Huoqiu foie gras, and children's carriage cribs. Not long ago, at the Shanghai Book Fair, high-quality agricultural products such as Xuji peanut candy, Jinzhai mushroom crispy, Qiaoqiaoguo's dried sweet potatoes and artemisia potcakes, Jinnongle's wild bamboo shoots and fungus, Xianhui noodles and other high-quality agricultural products were unveiled in the exhibition area of the time-honored bazaar, fully demonstrating Lu'an's excellent ecological and cultural tourism resources, and attracting many Shanghai citizens to taste the "taste of Lu'an".
Lu'an elements are "hot" in Shanghai, which is undoubtedly a microcosm of Shanghai-Liuzhou cooperation. In December 2021, the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Implementation Plan for Twinning Cooperation between Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Cities to Help Northern Anhui Cities", which determined that Songjiang District of Shanghai will cooperate in twinning to help Lu'an City. In May 2022, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) issued the Work Plan for Counterpart Cooperation in Key Cities in Old Revolutionary Base Areas, further clarifying the counterpart cooperation between Shanghai and Lu'an. From a district to a city, from pairing assistance to counterpart cooperation, Shanghai and Lu'an are "close to each other".
Lu'an grasps the "east wind" of counterpart cooperation, gives full play to the advantages of ecological green, seizes the strategic opportunity of integrated development in the Yangtze River Delta, based on the advantages of agricultural product resources, promotes the construction of green agricultural product production, processing and supply base in the Yangtze River Delta with high quality, keeps an eye on the needs of target groups in the Yangtze River Delta region, builds a supply and demand docking platform, builds a small channel for the market spontaneously, and strives to build an important "vegetable basket", "rice bag", "orchard" and "back garden" in the Yangtze River Delta region.
Heping Village, Pinggang Street, Yeji District, as a demonstration model of counterpart cooperation in rural revitalization, the village's Guoling Agricultural Service Center was built in cooperation with its counterpart in Jinshan District, Shanghai, using the orchard as the carrier, using advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things to grasp the growth of fruit trees in real time, build an intelligent orchard, promote the upgrading of Jianghuai greens, and enhance the modernization of agriculture and rural areas.
Not only go out, but also bring in. With the help of Shanghai Municipal Engineering Design and Research Institute and other institutions, Lu'an has successfully established a national sponge city construction demonstration city. A number of primary and secondary schools and colleges in Lu'an have established twinning cooperation with schools in Shanghai and successfully joined the Yangtze River Delta G60 Vocational Education Alliance. Lu'an medical institutions and Shanghai medical institutions carry out counterpart cooperation, and Shanghai experts regularly go to Lu'an for consultation, so that the people in the old area can enjoy high-level medical services nearby. At present, based on the resource endowment of Lu'an and Shanghai, Youdao Zhitu Company, a subsidiary of SAIC Group, cooperates with Lu'an Iron and Steel Group to build a green, clean and intelligent transportation chain. The electrochemical energy storage demonstration project invested by Shanghai Electric Group in Jinzhai County was completed and put into operation, which is the first 100-megawatt electrochemical energy storage power station in Anhui Province.
The cooperation between Shanghai and the Six has continuously enhanced the endogenous power and vitality of the development of old areas, and has achieved remarkable results in the inheritance of red culture, rural revitalization and new urbanization, infrastructure and basic public services, ecological environmental protection and restoration, green and low-carbon development, and the co-construction of industrial cooperation platforms.

Science and technology enclave "borrowing the ladder to ascend"
Recently, the reporter came to Anhui Haishang Frequency Conversion Technology Co., Ltd. located in Xiao County, deputy general manager Li Yunfei took out a product and said: "The HS320 product we developed has sold nearly 500,000 sets this year, and the company's output value is expected to reach more than 200 million yuan this year." Speaking of enterprise development, Li Yunfei is full of ambition, "Our goal is to become an industry leader." ”
This confidence and confidence comes from the company's independent research and development capabilities. Haishang was established in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province in 2012 and moved to Xiao County in 2018. "Xiao County has a superior location, great efforts to attract investment, and a good business environment, but it is difficult to attract talents." Li Yunfei told reporters that high-end R&D personnel in the industry are concentrated in Shanghai, Shenzhen, Suzhou and other big cities, and it is difficult for enterprises to introduce high-end R&D talents in Xiao County.
With the acceleration of the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta, many cities have set up science and technology innovation enclaves in Shanghai and Hangzhou and other science and technology innovation gathering places, and explored the reverse innovation model of R&D incubation in other places and industrialization in the local area. Last year, Xiao County set up a science and technology innovation enclave in Zhong'an Science and Technology Innovation Park, G60 Songjiang ·, Songjiang District, Shanghai, Xiao County · Yangtze River Delta Cities Joint Innovation Space, realizing "climbing by ladder" and "building nests to attract phoenixes".
"The company originally also had a R&D center of more than 100 square meters in Shanghai, which was small and lacked experimental sites. When we heard that Xiao County had established a science and technology innovation enclave in Shanghai, we immediately applied to settle in and moved the R&D center as a whole in May this year. Li Yunfei said that after the R&D center settled in the enclave, the area was expanded to 500 square meters, and the company had greater confidence to attract talents.
"When we first arrived, there were only 4 people, and now it has grown to more than 10 people, all of whom are talents we urgently need." Li Yunfei said that with the blessing of high-end talents, the company can launch four or five new products every year.
Innovation Space is the first science and technology innovation enclave established by Xiao County in Shanghai, and the county dispatches an operation team to cooperate with Xiao County's Investment Promotion Center in Shanghai, and is committed to forming a coordinated development situation of "Shanghai R&D incubation and Xiao County's production transformation". At present, the county has completed the construction and operation of nearly 1,700 square meters of innovation space, and settled in two R&D centers of Haishang and Yifang Intelligent Control.
"The main reason for settling in the science and technology enclave is that the park here is full of high-end manufacturing enterprises, the industrial environment is very good, and Xiao County also has rent concessions for settled enterprises." Li Chao, general manager of Shanghai CNC Technology Co., Ltd., said that their CNC system has reached the leading technology level in China, and will strengthen communication and docking with Xiao County in the future to promote the transformation of achievements.
"R&D in Shanghai, production in Xiao", the science and technology enclave is becoming an important starting point for Xiao County to seek breakthrough development and achieve innovation and transformation. The county anchors the new track of key industries such as machinery manufacturing, new materials, and electronic information, and moves towards the new. Since the beginning of this year, 17 new enterprises in the county have been identified as provincial innovative small and medium-sized enterprises. In the past five years, the county has signed 215 investment projects from Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, with an investment of 63.8 billion yuan, accounting for nearly half of the total investment.

"4-hour industrial circle" on the "chain" of new energy vehicles
Recently, Shanghai Waigaoqiao Haitong Automobile Terminal, located at the mouth of the Yangtze River, is busy and orderly. As one of China's largest automobile export terminals and an important terminal for car companies from various provinces along the Yangtze River to go to sea, Shanghai Waigaoqiao Haitong Automobile Terminal is welcoming new energy vehicles from Hefei to send "them" to "marry" overseas.
The successful "long-distance marriage" of Hefei new energy vehicles is inseparable from the empowerment of the "4-hour industrial circle" of new energy vehicles in the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta. "A new energy vehicle made in Hefei, its software may be from the hands of Shanghai enterprises, the power battery is produced in Changzhou, Jiangsu, and the body integration die-casting machine is from Ningbo, Zhejiang." According to the staff of Hefei Municipal Bureau of Industry and Information Technology, with the continuous deepening of the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta and the coordinated development of new energy automobile industry clusters, Hefei's new energy vehicle enterprises can obtain the required elements such as innovation chain, industrial chain, supply chain and talent chain in just 4 hours by car, forming a "4-hour industrial circle" that reflects the characteristics of the modern industrial system.
After the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta has become a national strategy, Hefei has always adhered to the "integration" and "high quality", grasped the biggest opportunity, the biggest kinetic energy and the biggest dividend of the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta, and made good use of the location advantages of being in the middle and east and connecting the south and the north.
Hefei grasps the general trend of the development of the automobile industry, vigorously develops the new energy automobile industry, and accelerates the construction of a new energy automobile industry cluster with international influence. "Basically, within a four-hour drive, we can visit customers, ecological partners and upstream and downstream supporting enterprises in the entire industrial chain." For NIO, a new force in EV manufacturing, the new energy vehicle industry chain in the Yangtze River Delta region has gathered many resources from scientific research institutions and enterprise R&D centers, and new energy vehicle companies in the region have easier access to the latest technological achievements and R&D resources in the fields of intelligent networking and chassis, accelerating the technological innovation and industrial upgrading of enterprises.
Hefei's "better scenery" on the new energy vehicle track has once again witnessed the deep integration of transportation, talents, innovation, and industry in the Yangtze River Delta region and the "multiplier effect" of the automobile industry chain. In May 2021, the Yangtze River Delta New Energy Vehicle Industry Chain Alliance was established, and the new energy vehicle industry chain enterprises in Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui responded together to complement each other's advantages through the industrial chain alliance. Subsequently, the three provinces and one city in the Yangtze River Delta reached new cooperation matters, including accelerating the construction of a network of charging and swapping infrastructure for new energy vehicles. The in-depth integration will undoubtedly further promote the integration of Hefei new energy vehicle enterprises into the "4-hour industrial circle" of the Yangtze River Delta.
In order to fully amplify the "dividends" brought by the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta, Hefei adheres to the "trinity" full-chain layout of vehicle-parts-aftermarket, gathers first-class vehicle resources from a global perspective, and leads the high-quality development of industrial clusters with the scale effect of vehicles.
At present, Hefei has gathered 6 vehicle companies, including JAC, BYD, NIO, Volkswagen, Changan and Ankai. In 2023, the actual output of new energy vehicles in Hefei will rank third in the country. From January to August this year, Hefei rolled off the assembly line nearly 10 new models such as Volkswagen's first domestic model "Yozhong" and Weilai Ledao, and the actual output of new energy vehicles reached 783,200, a year-on-year increase of 72.0%, and the annual output of new energy vehicles is expected to be about 1.3 million.
Today, with the continuous blessing of the "4-hour industrial circle" in the Yangtze River Delta, Hefei has become a pilot city for the "battery swap" pilot, the "double intelligence" pilot, the industrial chain supply chain system pilot, and the "vehicle-road-cloud integration" pilot city for new energy vehicles in China, and has become one of the regions with the largest total scale, the most well-known brands, the strongest development vitality and the most complete supply chain of the new energy automobile industry in China.

"Adjacent area" cross-border cooperation to strengthen industries
A few days ago, the reporter came to the Nanqiao area of the new functional zone in the adjacent area of Ningchu Province. In the R&D center technology laboratory covering an area of 15,000 square meters of Anhui Enboli Electric Appliance Co., Ltd., technicians are conducting various tests on a batch of products, such as enthalpy, noise, environment, physical and chemical, salt spray, software and hardware. "As a manufacturing enterprise integrating R&D, manufacturing and sales of air conditioners, and also a manufacturing enterprise authorized by Philips, we have received strong support from the local government in terms of capital, manpower supply, industrial chain support, and sales channels since we settled in the park." Ma Qiang, director of the company's equipment power department, told reporters that the total investment of the project is 10 billion yuan, which will be implemented in three phases, and the project can achieve an annual output of 5 million sets of air conditioners, an output value of 10 billion yuan, and a tax of 300 million yuan.
Dingshan-Xianhe and Pukou-Nanqiao are new functional areas of inter-provincial adjacent areas clearly proposed in the Outline of the Yangtze River Delta Regional Integration Development Plan, with a planned area of more than 100 square kilometers. In June 2021, the Management Committee of the New Functional Zone in the Inter-Provincial Adjacent Area of Ningchu was established, and Chuzhou and Nanjing signed a "1+2" framework agreement, under which the two places jointly funded the establishment of a development company, set up a development fund, and worked together to carry out infrastructure construction and investment attraction, and focus on building a leading area for institutional innovation, a demonstration area for industrial synergy, and a pilot area for intra-city development.
Focusing on the positioning of "two cities and one center" in Nanjing Jiangbei New Area, the "adjacent area" is willing to play a supporting role in the industry, and the construction of Nanjing's industrial "cooperation area" and "undertaking place". Among them, Nanqiao District of Chuzhou City and Pukou District of Nanjing City signed an agreement on cooperation and co-construction of the park, and adopted the cooperation mechanism of "Pukou recommendation, joint investment, joint research and judgment, and industrial coordination", and planned and built 1,000 acres of "enclave" in Nanqiao District, with Nanqiao and Pukou accounting for 8:2 shares, and sharing the tax district-level retained part of the project tax for the introduction of the cooperative park in Pukou High-tech Zone according to 7:3. At the same time, the Nanpu Cooperation Industrial Park has been included in the planning and construction area of the integrated circuit industry cluster in Nanjing Jiangbei New Area, and semiconductor enterprises such as Huarui Micro and Yaxin Micro have been completed and put into operation.
