Overview of Xiamen-Zhangquan co-location

Xiamen, Zhangquan and Xiamen will be integrated into one city in 2020, and a "master plan for homogenization" has emerged

According to the goals set forth in the "Xiamen, Zhangquan and Xiamen Metropolitan Area Master Plan for Homogenization" (hereinafter referred to as the plan), the Xiamen, Zhangquan and Xiamen Metropolitan Area target area includes the entirety of the three cities, with an area of approximately 26,000 square kilometers, and a total population of 16.66 million people in 2011.

At the same time, the concept of the core area of the metropolitan region was also put forward, which covers an area of 7,772 square kilometers, with a total population of about 12 million people in 2011, including the entire area of Xiamen, the urban centers of Zhangzhou and Quanzhou, parts of Longhai City, Zhangpu County, Changtai County, Nanjing County and Hua'an County, and parts of the Quanhang District, Hui'an County, Shishi City, Jinjiang City, and Nan'an City. By 2020, co-location will be basically realized. The mechanism of co-citizenization*** building*** enjoyment will be more complete, achieving a high degree of industrial, spatial and social integration.

Xiamen undoubtedly play a major role, it will be a political, economic and cultural center of the absolute leader of the old [1] big position, the left and right wings docking Zhangzhou and Quanzhou, the formation of a metropolitan area with a population of ten million people located in the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta between the southeastern coastal area, which may be the blueprint for the future of large Xiamen. It is a historical opportunity for the three cities of Xiamen, Zhangzhou and Quanzhou, but especially important for Zhangzhou, the city in the shadow of Xiamen and Quanzhou to survive and silence for many years, will be completely "liberated".

It is said that the ancestors of the Minnan people first moved from the central plains of Henan is in Zhangzhou and Quanzhou settled. Two culture, history, background, language, folklore of the same Minnan brothers, Zhangzhou has always been to the big brother to call himself, insert a stretcher can sprout fertile land, enough to make the people of Quanzhou jealous of a lifetime. However, the economic development of the two places in recent decades is very different, whether it is the GDP, fiscal revenue, Zhangzhou is now far behind. The traditional "Xiamen, Zhangzhou and Quan" order of arrangement was suddenly reversed, Zhangzhou was left in a rather embarrassing position, in addition to the agricultural demonstration area, plus a reputation as a cultural city, in the industrial economy is not good. Both born Yu, why bright? Let Zhangzhou people are helpless.

Many people who have lived in Zhangzhou feel that Zhangzhou is a lukewarm city that rests on its laurels. Zhangzhou people's mentality is always contented, small wealth, like they like to watch the puppet theater, quietly enjoy, savor, life is very easy. Including Zhangzhou women are also very cheap, the morning from the market home, vegetable basket or bicycle front frame always forget to bring a few bright flowers, looks like living in northern Europe in some orderly and quiet town.

Zhangzhou often immersed in the former pleasant climate, rich in produce, "agricultural city" in the splendor of the traditional "hundred kinds of martial arts, not as good as the hoe hoeing" agricultural complex. Once upon a time, the banks of the Jiulong River, "the city of flowers and fruits", "the land of fish and rice". The heavy longan, lychee, bananas, pineapple and blooming daffodils have become the most popular topics for TV presenters.

Zhangzhou is also a very "propaganda" city, good at finding "moving Zhangzhou characters", extracted from a variety of inspirational role models. I was told by a friend at a very early stage that Zhangzhou people have summarized several kinds of "spirit", which is very impressive. To name a few, there is the spirit of the big picture of the Longjiang style, the entrepreneurial spirit of Gu Wenchang, the spirit of the women's volleyball team, and the spirit of service of the Zhangzhou 110, and so on. And successively built the "Gu Wenchang spirit education base", "Longjiang style" Memorial Hall, women's volleyball "five consecutive championship" showroom and so on.

Zhangzhou people absolutely believe that "the power of example is infinite", sparing no effort to explore the characteristics of the spiritual resources, but also had erected a disabled elementary school rural teachers typical, sensational to the province on a lecture tour, people are optimistic that a strong wave of learning is expected to be set off nationwide.

A city should indeed have its spirit, that is the soul. However, the development of a city is not enough if it only has a spirit, but it also needs opportunities, as well as a full grasp of the opportunities. Does Quanzhou have any spirit? Quanzhou people may be accustomed to bury their heads in business, too late to summarize. From the Shishi town of "three to a complement" to "there are streets and nowhere not business, paved with 10,000 styles of clothing", and then to the reputation at home and abroad of the seven brands, Seven Pilgrims, Fugui Bird, Teppu, Nine Makings and Lilang, and other well-known brands of enterprises. This probably also reflects a certain spirit, summarized should be a "love of hard work will win" dare to struggle, dare to take risks of the spirit of the sea.

People's mindset directly affects the degree of emancipation of productive forces, Quanzhou, the economic express car is always in the "green light fast, yellow light, slow, red light detour line" in the "rules of the road" in the high-speed forward. Zhangzhou is no lack of talent, Zhangzhou is no lack of opportunity, the domestic famous Wanlida Group is from a middle school in Nanjing school-run factories started. Zhangzhou people running the cultural market is very forward-looking, when the democratic road that is very inconspicuous "Xiaofeng Bookstore", the early 1990s even drove straight into the Xiamen book market, such as fire, flourished for a while. At that time, Xiamen Special Administrative Region has not been a decent private bookstore.

The most important thing Zhangzhou needs is to grasp the opportunity. In the building of Xiamen, Zhangquan metropolitan area, seized the opportunity, the seaside city will be activated, lost the opportunity, it can only continue to hibernate wonderfully in the spiritual world.
