In the eyes of Huainan people, Hefei, the provincial capital, is really near.
Countless Huainan people work and buy houses in Hefei, and restaurants of "Huainan beef soup" can be seen everywhere on the roadside.
The two cities, Hehuai, are geographically connected, popular, economically integrated and culturally connected, and have a natural foundation for mutual integration and coordinated development. It is this close relationship that makes the "Hefei Huaihe Cooperation Zone" an important platform for the development of inter city cooperation in Hefei metropolitan area.
The reporter recently learned from the Provincial Development and Reform Commission that this cooperation zone, which was founded in May 2021, has explored a realistic path of coordinated development among cities in the metropolitan area after three years of construction.
Supporting for "Big Factory"
In the first ten days of May, the 500000th mass production vehicle of Weilai came off the production line in the second factory of Weilai, located in Hefei Xinqiao Intelligent Electric Vehicle Industrial Park.
Xinqiao Intelligent Electric Vehicle Industrial Park, "Ulai Fan" may all know this place, which is an important manufacturing base of Ulai Motors.
Three years ago, in April, the Xinqiao Intelligent Electric Vehicle Industrial Park, located near Hefei Xinqiao International Airport, was started. This park is positioned as a "world-class intelligent electric vehicle industrial cluster".
Today, the park has gathered 17 upstream and downstream projects of the industrial chain, with a total agreed investment of 66.5 billion yuan. The first phase project of Weilai Intelligent Electric Vehicle Industrial Park with a total investment of 28.7 billion yuan was completed and put into operation, with 4 models in production; A number of major industrial projects with strong industrial impact, such as the Phase II of Weilai Auto Intelligent Electric Vehicle Industrial Park with a total investment of 11 billion yuan and the Phase II of Weilai Power Drive with a total investment of 5.16 billion yuan, have been settled in succession.
The geographical location of this industrial park is very interesting. It is located between Hefei and Shou County, Huainan. It is only 10 kilometers and 20 minutes' drive to Liugang Town, Shou County. The huge industrial park is bound to bring a complete industrial chain, and its radiation driving effect is obvious.
For example, the automobile production base urgently needs a batch of automobile parts supporting enterprises. Huainan City has attracted 45 supporting enterprises to settle down by taking advantage of the opportunity of the settlement of Weilai Vehicle Manufacturing Base. The industrial division and cooperation have achieved a win-win situation.
In recent years, Hefei and Huainan have jointly prepared a number of major plans such as the Development Plan of Hefei Huainan Industrial Corridor (2018-2025) and the Overall Plan of Xinqiao Science and Technology Innovation Demonstration Zone (Hefei Huainan Cooperation Zone), promoted 10 key cooperation projects and matters, and gradually built a pattern of mutual promotion, integration and coordinated development.
Benefit sharing and appropriate "yield"
Cross city cooperation, how to allocate the costs and benefits paid has always been a troublesome matter.
In short, it is the question of "who will pay and how to divide the money earned", which is particularly prominent for different administrative regions that have their own interests to consider.
The He Huai Cooperation Zone has innovatively explored a set of benefit sharing and cost sharing mechanisms, changing from "aid construction" of traditional parks to "co construction", and from "blood transfusion" to "hematopoiesis".
For example, the Park implements the sharing and sharing of all revenues and expenditures, the development income of GDP, investment, output value and other aspects of the Park is shared by both parties at a ratio of 5:5, and the construction cost of public service supporting facilities such as water, electricity, roads, education, medical care, and ecological environment is shared by both parties at a ratio of 5:5.
Interestingly, the second phase of Weidian Power Driven Project "one factory across two places" has been started, with half of the plants in Hefei and half in Huainan. This is the first time in the province that major industries have achieved cross city horizontal division of labor and cross regional layout.
The most important thing in cooperation is sincerity and sincerity. Sometimes appropriate "giving way to profits" will make cooperation more smooth and smooth. This is evident in the cooperation zone.
In terms of taxation, Hefei sticks to the principle of "putting industrial projects in the past, investing funds in the past and keeping taxes", does not participate in the local tax sharing of the park, and extends the industrial policies of Hefei Economic Development Zone equally to the cooperation zone; At the same time, Shouxian County will use the land transfer fees of the cooperation zone to support the construction of the park, and two-way empowerment will provide basic guarantee for the sustainable development of the park.
Sharing share and mutual benefit, this kind of inter market cooperation has formed a good situation of mutual benefit.
"Management Committee+Company"
Because it is a cross administrative cooperation, what kind of operation mechanism the inter city cooperation park adopts will directly affect the operation efficiency.
This is to balance the relationship between the city and the government and the market.
The Hehuai Cooperation Zone has gradually improved the management system of the park by deepening the reform of "management committee+company".
Hefei and Huainan selected cadres to participate in the park construction and project introduction. The two sides also jointly funded the establishment of investment and financing platform companies to form a market led, government supported and guided management and operation system.
The cooperation zone has continuously deepened the administrative reform, sorted out 1568 items such as 13 types of administrative management and 9 types of administrative licensing, authorization and punishment for law enforcement, and strived for the provincial government to adjust these administrative authorities from Huainan City to Hefei City without breaking the administrative boundary, so as to meet the demands of enterprises for "unified administrative subject, one door acceptance and one-stop settlement", and maintain the business environment, planning and construction Unification and integrity of market supervision, investment promotion and policy implementation.
The strategy of strengthening provincial capital is an effective strategic choice that has been proved by the development of Anhui in recent years, and it is also a common strategic path for the development of central and western provinces. With the growing strength of the provincial capital, how can we comply with the expectations of the whole province and play a greater and more direct role in driving it?
The trial and exploration of Anhui "Hehuai Cooperation Zone" is quite meaningful. With industry as the link, market-oriented mechanism as the driving force, and mutual benefit as the goal, the road of regional cooperation is gradually widening.
