What are the potentials of Guiyang and Chongqing?

As a person who has lived in Guiyang for more than N years and knows something about Chongqing's urban laws and regulations, he still has some say in this issue.

Mainly from three aspects, talk about the views of these two cities, few words, but can guarantee the depth:

First, the economic base:

Let's start with Chongqing. Chongqing is a municipality directly under the central government If the northeast and southeast of Chongqing are included, the GDP of the whole city will reach 1755876 billion yuan in 20 16 years.

If only the nine districts of Chongqing's main city are counted, excluding other areas, the official caliber is "five functional areas":

Urban function core area, urban function expansion area, urban development new area, ecological conservation development area in northeast Chongqing and ecological protection development area in southeast Chongqing.

According to the main urban area, that is, the official "metropolitan area", if only the urban core area and urban expansion area are counted, the total GDP in 20 16 will be more than 760 billion yuan.

This kind of regional positioning is actually a strategy of concentrating on building a good urban core, which is very reasonable and can quickly improve the first place in the urban core area. This is a proven successful route from Chengdu to Sichuan.

Now, like Beijing, Chengdu is the only two big cities in China with six rings.

If we say Guiyang and Guiyang, we can't bypass Guizhou. If we compare Guizhou province with Chongqing, it is comparable. Guizhou is 201173.4 billion yuan, which is still an order of magnitude compared with Chongqing.

However, if Guiyang is compared with the main urban area (metropolitan area) of Chongqing, it will be very embarrassing.

Guiyang has always been a provincial capital city with low priority. It was not until the high-speed rail network was gradually full in the past two years, and the counties were connected with expressways, that the location advantage and the development potential previously suppressed by traffic in central Guizhou were released.

In 20 16 years, Guiyang's GDP was 31577 billion, and Chongqing's was more than 760 billion, less than half.

As the provincial capital, Guiyang still has a lot of room for improvement.

Second, population.

The reason why the total population of Chongqing is so high is inseparable from its total population. Simply put, there are many people.

The resident population in the main urban area of Chongqing is 85 18000 in 20 16 years. Look at Guiyang again. At the end of 20 16, the resident population was 4,696,800, just over half.

Some people think that Guiyang's urban population density is too high to accommodate more people, which is obviously untenable.

Let's take a look at the main urban area of Chongqing, which is 5472.68 km, while the area of Guiyang reaches 8034 km. It can be said that Guiyang still needs more people to enrich its prosperity.

The picture shows the old landmark blasting in Chaotianmen, Chongqing.

Third, similar new hope: Chongqing Raffles vs Guiyang Huaguoyuan

It can be said that both cities are making efforts in the dark.

Many times, the development and progress of cities are not smooth sailing, and various difficulties need to be overcome, which are reflected in many aspects.

The most concrete examples, such as raffles city in Chaotianmen, Chongqing, and the flower orchard in the center of Guiyang, are constantly controversial, and old ideas collide with new hopes, but the final result has proved that new things will inevitably overcome old things, and new ones cannot be established without breaking the old ones.

Therefore, for the new changes in Chongqing and Guiyang, the best survival strategy is to embrace the changes.
