Qianhai is located on the east bank of the Pearl River Estuary. When it was established in 2010, its total area was about 15 square kilometers. In 2021, it will expand to 120.56 square kilometers, connecting Hong Kong at one end and the "Golden Inner Bay" 100 kilometers around the Pearl River Estuary at the other. It has unique geographical advantages.

As the co-founder of Shenzhen Mirage Future Information Technology Co., Ltd., Wang Cong introduced that the core members of the company are young people from Shenzhen and Hong Kong, focusing on the research, development and application of highly anthropomorphic AI virtual human. Products have been launched in Shanghai, Fujian and other places, and in-depth cooperation has been reached with Tencent, China Mobile, Huawei and other leading companies in the industry.

"Qianhai has released '12 measures to support Hong Kong and Macao youth', and held the Qianhai Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Taiwan Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition for eight consecutive years." Wang Jinxia, deputy director of Qianhai Shenzhen Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone Administration, said.

Since the issuance of the Outline of the Development Plan of the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area in 2019, the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area, represented by Qianhai, has increasingly become a fertile ground for attracting young people to start businesses and work, from the emerging scientific and technological innovation platforms, to the new infrastructure channels that continue to "expand", to the deepening mechanism and rule convergence process.

Before coming to Qianhai, Shenzhen, Yu Guangtao had made some achievements in the classification and recycling of organic waste in Hong Kong. However, the national policy of advocating green recycling and implementing waste classification, "the wind outlet", and the inspiration brought by insect biotechnology, made him decide to expand his entrepreneurial landscape to the whole Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Bay Area.

"We came to Shenzhen from Hong Kong. The geographical proximity of the two places is basically the concept of the same city. Shenzhen Qianhai has very concentrated policy support and good environmental support for young people from Hong Kong to start businesses." Yu Guangtao said that the team found partners under the guidance of Qianhai Administration. A complete organic waste treatment and regeneration system has been built in Dongguan, Guangdong, and other projects have also made new progress in different cities.

Hong Kong youth, entrepreneurs and scientific research institutions have come in droves, and a series of support policies have become a "reassurance" for them to settle down and invest in Qianhai.

In terms of entrepreneurship and employment, the "former harbor enterprise loan" has been implemented, and 23 types of professionals from Hong Kong and Macao can practice after filing (registration); In terms of education, the first school for children of Harrow people has opened, and Qianhai has built 9 international schools, attracting 1896 Hong Kong students; In terms of medical care, 8 international medical institutions have been introduced, and "Hong Kong Macao Pharmaceutical Equipment Link" has been launched; In terms of law, Qianhai Court pioneered the system of "harbor jury" and "harbor mediation"

As the first batch of Hong Kong youth coming to Qianhai, Shenzhen to start their own businesses, Chen Sheng has participated in the construction of several Shenzhen Hong Kong entrepreneurship bases, serving more than 300 Hong Kong youth coming to the Greater Bay Area to start their own businesses. From "Shenzhen people come here" to "everyone is from the Bay Area", more and more Hong Kong youth start businesses, work, live and live in the Greater Bay Area.

"Here we see the 'Shenzhen speed' and the increasingly broad development opportunities of the Greater Bay Area." Chen Sheng said that young people are very hardworking, and many science and technology innovation enterprises have grown from scratch and become stronger, "which also makes us unconsciously accelerate our pace and strive forward.".
