The "dead end road" at the provincial border sets up a new track connecting the two places. The wholesale market on the side of the second ring road in Beijing has become a national financial science and technology demonstration area. The ancient canal that has lasted for thousands of years has been transformed into a thriving "ecological river" after governance. In the past ten years of coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, new changes have emerged in succession on the land around Beijing, It is constantly writing a new chapter of high-quality development in the new era.

"The Beijing Tianjin Hebei region is one of the regions with the most dynamic economy, the highest degree of openness, the strongest scientific and technological innovation ability, and the most concentrated population in China." Li Xiaolin, director of the Regional Policy Office of the Institute of Land Development and Regional Economy of the National Development and Reform Commission, said in an exclusive interview with the People's Daily Online reporter that the Beijing Tianjin Hebei region is responsible for participating in the new round of global scientific and technological revolution and industrial change It is an important mission to lead and demonstrate the high-quality development of the country.

What are the main achievements of a blueprint that has gradually become a reality? What will be the next step?

Li Xiaolin introduced that last year, the gross domestic product of Beijing Tianjin Hebei region was 10.4 trillion yuan, significantly improving its comprehensive strength. In particular, the high-quality development of Hebei has entered the fast lane, accelerated the formation of new momentum in undertaking and cooperation, and the resilience and vitality of economic development have significantly increased. In 2023, the proportion of high-tech industries above designated size in the added value of industries above designated size will be 21.4%, 9.6 percentage points higher than in 2013.

Li Xiaolin analyzed that during the ten years of coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, efforts were mainly made in three aspects. First, space sharing and functional layout optimization were realized around the problem of relieving Beijing's non capital functions; Second, we will continue to strengthen collaborative innovation and industrial collaboration, and form an important engine for participating in global competition in science and technology industries; Third, the degree of "urbanization" of the three cities has been continuously improved, and the construction of a high-quality life circle suitable for living, working, traveling and creating has been accelerated.

Among them, the achievements in collaborative innovation and industrial collaboration are particularly outstanding. The reporter learned from the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission and the Zhongguancun Science and Technology Park Management Committee that by the end of last year, the number of branches set up by Zhongguancun enterprises in Tianjin and Hebei had exceeded 10000.

Science and technology departments in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei have further promoted the coordinated development of scientific and technological innovation. The data shows that the number of technology contracts exported from Beijing to Tianjin and Hebei increased from 3176 in 2013 to 6758 in 2023, with an average annual growth rate of 7.8%; The turnover increased from 7.12 billion yuan in 2013 to 74.87 billion yuan in 2023, with an average annual growth rate of 26.5%.

"Industrial chain innovation chain collaboration is an important proposition for the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei." Li Xiaolin said that in recent years, the three cities have taken the initiative to cultivate world-class industrial clusters by focusing on expanding Beijing's technological innovation resource advantages, enhancing Tianjin Hebei's ability to undertake, and formed the "Beijing R&D+Tianjin Hebei collaborative manufacturing" model.

It is understood that Hengshui Innovation Port in Hebei Province has been "going out" and "bringing in" since its establishment in November 2017. "Settled enterprises are growing rapidly, and the platform is becoming more and more capable of undertaking the transformation of Beijing Tianjin scientific and technological achievements. A large number of Beijing Tianjin transferred emerging industries are gathering here to form a momentum and make efforts to 'smart manufacturing'." Zhang Qingliu, Deputy Commander of Hengshui Innovation Port, said that at present, the number of patents obtained by enterprises in the park has reached 93, and more than 130 innovative and entrepreneurial talents have gathered, We will continue to promote Beijing Tianjin Hebei collaborative innovation in depth.

Over the past decade, the three regions of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei have complemented each other and worked together to promote the coordinated development of scientific and technological innovation. In the next step, which direction will the force be exerted?

"In the future, on the one hand, it is suggested to make efforts to accelerate the formation of new quality productivity." Li Xiaolin said that it is necessary to further enhance the function of Beijing as the main source of original innovation and technological innovation, play a demonstration and driving role in achieving self-reliance and self-improvement in high-level science and technology, accelerate the construction of Beijing International Science and Technology Innovation Center and high-level talent highland, and drive the industrial development of Beijing Tianjin Hebei region, Jointly build a world-class advanced manufacturing cluster.

"On the other hand, it is suggested to make efforts to enhance the capacity of Tianjin and Hebei to undertake." Li Xiaolin said that Tianjin and Hebei should continue to rely on their own industrial comparative advantages, actively take advantage of the spillover effect of Beijing's scientific and technological innovation achievements, accelerate the pace of industrial transformation and upgrading, and continue to enhance the functions of Tianjin and Hebei's key undertaking platforms.

In the past ten years, Beijing Tianjin Hebei coordinated development has strengthened the foundation and layout of buildings, effectively improved the quality and reasonably increased the quantity, and achieved tangible innovative results. In the future, a Beijing Tianjin Hebei region with more coordinated development and surging momentum will also show greater achievements. (Intern Zhang Yichi also contributed to this article)
