What is the future for Shiyan City, Hubei Province?

As an undergraduate student in Wuhan and a native of Shiyan, I have the following views on the development of Shiyan

1. Develop county economy; in fact, as far as Shiyan urban area is concerned, in Hubei The province is not bad, whether it is economy, urban management planning, humanistic education, etc., the urban area can definitely be ranked among the top in Hubei Province, but it is difficult for each county, especially the three southern counties that have no railway planning yet. It is absolutely true that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. Only when roads are open can you attract investment.

2: Carry out economic transformation and vigorously attract talents. Everyone knows that Shiyan is the hometown of Dongfeng. Now that Dongfeng has moved away, this hometown is not as prosperous as before. Shiyan’s pillar industry is still automobiles. , whether it is possible to introduce a series of technology companies such as the Internet and technology manufacturing, the government must be open-minded and inclusive of all parties to attract investment. The automobile industry cannot be allowed to enter the country, and new industries must be introduced at the same time. Only in this way can we attract more talents, especially local talents in Shiyan, unlike many jobs in Shiyan now that are essentially sales.

3: Work hard to build the business card of a tourist city. There are indeed many tourist places in Shiyan, the famous ones are Wudang Mountain and Danjiangkou. Can we use online promotion media to promote these business cards so that more people can visit them? People are willing to come to Shiyan to visit and understand Shiyan.

4: We should vigorously promote Shiyan’s special delicacies. I am from Shiyan but I don’t know what Shiyan’s signature delicacies are. It seems to be Sanhe soup. To remember a city, first remember the taste of a city. This is the key to attracting repeat customers, so be sure to vigorously promote special food, just like snail noodles!

If Shiyan wants to truly become a regional central city, the important growth levels of Hubei Province must achieve the following three points. 1. Vigorously develop the industrial economy represented by Shiyan Xicheng Industrial Park, and introduce more projects such as Dongfeng Xiaokang Passenger Car 300,000 units and Dongfeng Yijie New Energy Vehicle Project. 2. Vigorously develop tourism and health care projects, especially like Wudang Mountain Tai Chi Town, Zhuxi Longwang Ya, Wulong Health Resort Project. 3 With the construction of the Han-Shi High-speed Railway and the Shi-West High-speed Railway, more health and wellness vacation projects in high-speed rail towns will be developed, and high-standard tourism and vacation projects will be built to truly build the Oriental Health and Wellness Capital, an international tourist resort, and a national cultural center. Vigorously develop Taiji Lake National Extreme Resort, so that millions of people from other places will not want to leave Shiyan when they come to Shiyan, and stay in Shiyan for a long time for health and wellness. If these three items can be achieved, Shiyan's development prospects will be immeasurable.

If I tell the truth, there are probably a lot of people who support me, and there is no doubt that those who criticize me are just closed-minded people who can’t stand to hear the truth and feel they have lost face. of these people. They often smear themselves over it, and even think that people who smear themselves with words sound nice. The locals are still like this. To put it bluntly, do you think it would be okay if you don’t admit it? Or just spray me? How much is face worth?

What should be said is that Shiyan has good development prospects but lacks development momentum. If Shiyan didn't open up mountains, it would really be an abandoned city. Have you forgotten how the east wind moved back then? When Dongfeng was here, there was no way to expand the scale. Now that Dongfeng has moved out, people have long known what the business environment is like in Shiyan. If this is the case for state-owned enterprises, do we still need to talk about small businesses? But Shiyan built this industrial park too late. I dare say that in the years since Dongfeng headquarters moved, Shiyan was no longer viable. There is no money to do these things anymore. In fact, Dongfeng still has a few industries in Shiyan, but most of them have been relocated to industrial parks through relocation and mergers. Commercial vehicles are still commercial vehicles, there is no qualitative change.

Before, Dongfeng needed this piece of land in Shiyan but couldn't get it. Now that Dongfeng is gone, it has taken away even the high-quality people and people with opportunities, and no one is willing to come back after leaving. What else is there in Shiyan? Now I am praying for the east wind to come back and blow my mountains apart, leaving them barren and destroying the environment. As a result, Dongfeng only invested in the lowest-end projects. What do you think is the use? What Dongfeng needs now is a far-sighted city, a city suitable for its own development, rather than a closed city where farmers are serious-minded and only focus on their own one-third of an acre of land, and do whatever they want in their own place. To be honest, I walked around the New Industrial Zone, and it is indeed Dongfeng’s new factory, and it is indeed Dongfeng’s headquarters. But what's the use? I have seen those factories before.

It was just integrated, reorganized and moved into the park. Of course, there are also newly invested industries in the entire park, most of which have just changed their names, or are low-end industries. It was not that Dongfeng left on his own, but that he no longer believed in this city and had no expectations. Important industries have been relocated. If you don’t believe me, go and take a look now. Which place in Shiyan Economic and Technological Development Zone or Shiyan New Industrial Zone has complete supporting facilities? The streets are almost the same. The advantages of Dongcheng and Xicheng are more convenient transportation and more large-scale enterprises. Regarding streets and supporting facilities, I think they are pretty much the same.

Shiyan relies on the east wind, not the east wind. But the problem is that even if you want to rely on Dongfeng, you have no choice, because now Shiyan is different from Xiangyang and Wuhan. Xiangyang and Wuhan have other industries that are doing very well, such as Xiangyang Economic Development Zone, Xiangyang High-tech Zone, Wuhan Economic and Technological Development Zone, Wuhan Optics Valley is also doing very well. Even if there is Dongfeng in Shiyan, it will only be the lowest-end industry invested by Dongfeng. They are all old factories and nothing else. Shiyan got his wish now. There is no longer any financial backbone that can be taken out.

As for the tourism industry, the most fundamental thing is publicity and supporting facilities. Which of these two items is done well? I'm afraid only people in the province know about such a famous scenic spot as Wudang Mountain, right? People from other provinces, that is, people from neighboring provinces, know this, right? Haha, don’t you know that you are responsible for developing the tourism industry? Wudang Mountain cannot attract outsiders to settle here.

Don’t say how friendly and non-xenophobic people are in Shiyan, as people in big cities are. Some people who don’t know the truth are not exclusive. How did Dongfeng move at that time? This relationship that lasted for more than 30 years could not be maintained. It also took away a large number of high-quality immigrants. Even the locals left, and those who could leave did not come back. Few outsiders are willing to come in. When I moved, I said it was to suit my own development. It left a lot of sympathy. Because Shiyan refused to allocate an acre of land for construction at that time, there was no concept of urban construction, and it still doesn't exist now. Do I remember someone saying this? Population reduction in ecological areas is an inevitable trend. If so, what city did you build at that time? What industry will be developed? Population decline. Do you know how the population decreases? Some people even say that the population decline in ecological areas is an inevitable trend, as if it is a matter of course, and they are so brazen. Look at who are lost due to population loss? Foreign population and people with better quality. Because of this positioning, there has been little development in Shiyan. The reality is that the supporting facilities cannot keep up. Many immigrants from all over the world have left, but those who stayed have always dealt with the local fellows. The local social atmosphere is very poor and there is no culture. There is no foundation and order in modern society. Look at how messy Shiyan is, with spitting, littering, vehicles parked indiscriminately, and people crossing the road instead of using the sidewalk. Everything went wrong. The urban area of ??Shiyan is now a large rural area, filled with people from surrounding areas. They don't even know how to act as civilized citizens. The social climate is in shambles. I dare to say that if the descendants of immigrants who have not left the country die of old age, Shiyan will really be a place where poor people come from poor mountains and rivers. Uncivilized behavior is already disgraceful. If no one sees it, no one will say such things.

How unsafe is it every morning and noon at the Hongwei Turntable in the west of the city? As a result, the newly built pedestrian bridges were all built in the main urban areas. Some of them were in Sanyan, Gujiagang, and Xiajiadian, and they were all relatively old. As a result, there is no one in the western part of the city. This will not only increase the chance of traffic accidents, but also bring no convenience. Why are there still people saying that there is no progress in the renovation of the Huaguo shanty towns? There is also the reconstruction of shantytowns in Hongwei, why are we not mentioning it now? People at that time had no vision, and the result has not changed for many years. People now have vision, but it is too late, because Dongfeng’s houses account for the vast majority. Dongfeng does not believe in Shiyan. What is Dongfeng Real Estate Company afraid of? Because they were the ones who rejected the new construction, not to mention whether their funds were available, it was said that half of the construction was stopped due to various reasons. It's not impossible! My own efficiency was low, I was in trouble, and as a result, I was afraid of poverty. I wanted the east wind to come back again, and I started to open mountains and build factories again. The result was a wasteland, and many of them were low-end projects. You can choose not to have these projects, otherwise the city will always be a wasteland. Anyway, small businesses will not thrive, and a good business environment will not be created for small businesses. Dongcheng District is stronger and supports the development of private enterprises and high-end industries. It’s just that Dongfeng’s base camp is not there.

Xicheng District is the base camp, and the main focus is just on guarding these low-end industries. There is nothing we can do about the low-end industries. What if we don't have an output value of several million a year? The efficiency of the whole vehicle is not good, and the parts and components are losing money. Small businesses don't seem to get much support, and local folks don't manage them well. In fact, leaving aside supporting facilities, the business environment in Maojian District is better than that in Zhangwan District. This is true for small businesses, let alone Dongfeng? After all, the city was founded on the east wind. Without the east wind, there would be no city of Shiyan, and then there would be nothing. Zhang Wanqu thought he had a trump card at the time, so he was left with nothing. As a result, they had nothing to eat and were afraid of poverty. After the two headquarters were relocated, Shiyan began to open mountains in that place. Otherwise, Shiyan would have nothing, and what would be waiting for it would be a shabby industry. The mountain was opened only after sufficient funds were available, so it took several years. At that time, Shiyan did not have any land for light trucks to build a factory, so Dongfeng had to leave after it became bigger. Can't stop it. In fact, in general, the vision is not high. In many places, industrial parks were built in the 1990s or 2000s, but now they dare not build them on a large scale. They say that population reduction in ecological areas is an inevitable trend. Who is responsible for this phenomenon? Have you ever thought about it?

Shiyan has development prospects, but so far we have not seen where the development momentum is reflected. It is easy to see the development vision, management level and social concept.

The development positioning is wrong. Shiyan should actually go eastward in the future, but for the sake of a so-called big city, if we insist on demarcating Yunyang District and go north, isn’t it a death? Needless to say, there is Liuliping Wudang Mountain in the east, Dingjiaying Langhe old military industrial base, Danjiangkou City developing in the south, and Shiyan directly integrating into Danjiangkou City. At present, the main urban area of ??Danjiangkou City has been integrated into Xiangyang. If Shiyan is integrated into Danjiangkou City, will we still worry about the separation of Danjiangkou City?

According to Shiyan’s idea, Suzhou’s Kunshan Zhangjiagang should not exist! The current fault of the northwest Hubei automobile industry corridor is from Danjiangkou to Shiyan! Suizhou - Zaoyang - Xiangyang - Laohekou - Danjiangkou - Shiyan

Seeing that Shiyan is out of business

Shiyan City is the central city in the region adjacent to Hubei, Henan, Shaanxi and Chongqing. , there are three well-known business cards: Fairy Mountain (Wudang Mountain), Xiushui (Hanjiang Danjiang), and Automobile City (Dongfeng Motor).

As a county under the jurisdiction of Shiyan, Yunxi is located in the northwest corner, one hour's drive from Shiyan City and four hours' drive from Xi'an City. It is located in the Qinchu Fortress.

When it comes to the development prospects of Yunxi, traditional agriculture in mountainous areas has been basically abandoned, and the industrial economy is not worth mentioning. The planned industrial park is now in a depression, and the clothing industry and electronics industry are both out of date. The old auto parts factory is trying to support the park's output value.

However, in recent years, Yunxi’s Chinese Valentine’s Day culture has gradually flourished, and Chinese Valentine’s Day elements are spread throughout the county. In addition, with the development of Shangjin Ancient City and Wulong River Scenic Area, urban river landscape beautification, and the construction of Tianhe Water Village Greenway, With the opening of the Fuyin Expressway, the station planning of the Seibu High-Speed ??Railway, and the construction of a general-purpose airport, Yunxi’s tourism advantages have become clear and it has great potential!

What must be mentioned is Jianchi Xianying Village, the first Taobao village in Hubei Province. The annual turquoise transaction volume is tens of millions. The e-commerce boom caused by this has greatly promoted the local high-quality original ecological characteristics. Agricultural products exported!

There is also the Laijiahe large-scale photovoltaic power station in Hejia Town. This can be said to be a very large project in Yunxi, and it is also the largest ground photovoltaic power station in Hubei Province!

It has to be said that the development of Shiyan in recent years has been unable to keep up with the rhythm of one master and two auxiliaries. The data comes from the 2020 Hubei and Shiyan Statistical Yearbook: Population:

Shiyan The total population of the city is 3.4607 million, which is nearly 1 million less than Yichang, nearly 2 million less than Xiangyang, less than Xiaogan, Jingzhou, Huanggang, and Enshi, and at the mid-level level of Hubei. By 2020, the gap will tend to widen further, and the population will gather in some cities. This is a terrible signal. The population of Shiyan has been decreasing bit by bit since 2014. In terms of national accounts and fixed asset investment:

Shiyan City’s GDP is 201.2 billion yuan, Wuhan City is 1,622.3 billion yuan, Yichang is 446 billion yuan, and Xiangyang is 481.2 billion yuan, which is similar to Jingmen, Xiaogan, Huanggang and other places. The mid-stream level shows that Shiyan’s foundation is still there, with an annual growth of 10 billion yuan since 2014. However, everyone understands the truth of sitting still and eating nothing.

There has been no data on fixed asset investment in Shiyan for two years. From 2014 to 2017, the total investment has not changed much. It is basically investment by state-owned and collective units. What does this mean? This shows that there is a lack of companies investing in Shiyan. Without investment, it will not be able to create employment, and naturally it will not be able to retain people. In terms of employment and wages:

The number of employed people in Shiyan has remained at around 2.2 million since 2014. When this part of the labor force gets older, Shiyan will be empty. This is a vicious cycle. Wage levels are rising every year. In 2019, the per capita annual salary was 58,000 yuan, and the per capita disposable income was 33,000 yuan in urban areas and 11,000 yuan in rural areas. Everyone can understand how this compares to Shiyan's housing prices and consumption levels.

Generally speaking, Shiyan’s development in recent years has not been very ideal. There is no business environment, no inflow of talents, and it relies on the old foundation to maintain itself. This is what the 100,000 people who moved their families did not want to see, and it is also What the people of Shiyan do not want to see, and what is left more to talk about now is the decline of Shiyan and the legend of the year.

So where is the future or development direction of Shiyan?

Let’s first take a look at Shiyan’s overall status in Hubei:

1. One special and five major cities are outdated, the 1+8 city circle is unreliable, the Yangtze River Ecological Economic Zone is incomprehensible, and the regional central city ?

2. Xiangyu Railway, West 10th High-speed Railway, three horizontal and one vertical expressways, Wudangshan Airport, needless to say how much the mountain city relies on transportation, Dongfeng has taken away too much.

3. Hubei Automobile Industry College and Hubei Medical College are slightly more popular, but Xiangyang and Yichang universities are taking off.

4. Most people only know about Wudang Mountain. Yes, they know that Wudang Mountain is in Hubei, but some don’t know that it is in Shiyan. This is very embarrassing. The two business cards of Danjiang Water and Automobile City are beginning to fade.

5. Poverty areas that urgently need to be solved. Shiyan City has 3 districts, 4 counties and 1 county-level city under its jurisdiction. However, it is hard to imagine that 4 of them and 1 county-level city are all national-level poverty-stricken counties. The economic level is not optimistic, especially in Zhuxi County. The annual GDP in 2019 was 8.454 billion yuan, ranking fourth from the bottom in Hubei Province and comparable to Enshi.

Let’s take a look at Shiyan City’s own positioning and the recent “14th Five-Year Plan” planning strategy:

Focusing on building a “modern new automobile city and a green ecological city”, we will create “three districts and two "Ground One Center", namely the national important water conservation area ecological protection and high-quality development demonstration area, the national "two mountains" concept demonstration area, the national internal and external dual cycle interactive development leading area, the world's automobile industry "intelligent manufacturing" base, the world's cultural tourism It is a health and leisure resort and a central city in the adjacent regions of Hubei, Henan, Shaanxi and Chongqing.

Earlier planning strategy:

Led by the automobile industry, supported by eco-cultural tourism, energy, modern service industry, green organic agricultural product processing industry, intelligent equipment manufacturing, biotechnology A modern industrial system of "one main, four major and four new" focusing on industry, energy conservation and environmental protection, and new material industry.

Shiyan’s positioning of its own industry, going back and forth, is ultimately inseparable from “car city” and “tourism”. This is Shiyan’s advantage and opportunity. Needless to say, Checheng is the cornerstone of Shiyan's development, and Shiyan is also the best ecologically protected city in the country, a national forest city, a city with beautiful landscapes, an international capital for health preservation of migratory birds, and a civilized city.

City development is nothing more than economic growth through attracting investment and stimulating consumption. Looking at the current urban development situation, Hubei has invested a lot of money in the first and second auxiliaries. In addition to financial investment such as infrastructure, Shiyan still has to rely on itself. We have to think about why other companies want to invest in Shiyan? In addition to urban domestic consumption, how to increase external consumption? The road to business development:

When we recommend or introduce Shiyan to others, we like to say how good Shiyan is, and if you don’t invest, you will lose money. What is the difference between this and selling insurance? Sometimes it’s not that we can’t get investment and funding, it’s just that we don’t have a good plan, an attractive development strategy, or a plan that actually pays off. There’s no point in shouting slogans. "One master, four majors and four new" is relatively clear, and you know what you want to do down-to-earth, unlike the current "two districts, two places and one center", which is vague and unclear.

First of all, we must clearly understand Shiyan’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. Then seize the opportunity and expand your advantage. The automobile industry, culture, and tourism are definitely industries that need to be deeply cultivated. This is Shiyan’s advantage. It started early and has a good foundation. At the same time, we must also pay attention to the tourism innovations in surrounding cities in recent years. Shiyan must reflect on the fact that apart from Wudang Mountain, there are no other famous and distinctive tourist attractions. It's gratifying to see the latest RVs in Shiyan. It would be better if it can get some passenger car production business. In addition, service outsourcing, new energy and high-tech R&D and export, which are relatively less dependent on transportation, are worthy of breakthroughs. I don’t see many opportunities in other industrial and financial industries. The road to consumption growth:

This year is a year to stimulate domestic demand, and Shiyan is faced with the dilemma of relying on domestic demand. Tourism and specialty products are direct exports and consumption. In addition to Wudang Mountain, some other new cultural and tourism business cards need to be created. I saw a lot of poverty alleviation projects in Shiyan, and some of them were pretty good, such as mushrooms. Shiyan is surrounded by mountains and rivers, which can be fully utilized. Planting, breeding, tobacco, wine, tea and fruits can all be used for making a fuss.

Population growth and transportation facilities are indirect external export consumption. Population growth is not easy. This is something every city competes with. I think Shiyan can attract more branch campuses of universities and strive to win Hubei Jiaotong University. As for the high-speed rail, the east-west direction and the lines to surrounding cities are definitely different. As for the need for good planning of transportation within the city, many people complain about travel. Real estate:

To be honest, real estate is indeed an important driver of economic growth, but it only plays a regulatory role. For example, for example, the economic difficulties caused by the financial crisis in 2008, or the weak consumption caused by the world's new crown epidemic in 2020, various places will speed up the purchase and sale of land, issue licenses for house sales, and house prices will increase within a certain period of time. It will be controlled every month. Why is this so? Housing prices only play a role in easing economic pressure and cannot be expected to drive urban development.

The current housing price level in Shiyan has reached a high level. You must know that the real estate market in third- and fourth-tier cities is not optimistic, especially in the future, the competition for talents will be more intense, and there will not be as good an economy and development potential as first- and second-tier cities. , The rise in housing prices in Shiyan will only lead to the spillover of talents and inhibit the inflow of talents. This is an act that outweighs the gains and losses.

If the Shiyan Municipal Government is responsible, as someone who has been away from Shiyan for 10 years, I would like to briefly talk about some development ideas for people who love my hometown to discuss. 1- The automobile industry has reached an inflection point, and smart manufacturing should start planning early. Trucks and passenger cars, continue to become bigger and stronger, strive to be a big brand, and compete for the commanding heights on the front line to become stronger! 2-Big Tourism Wudang Mountain, the source of Danjiangkou,! We should vigorously promote investment promotion in Beijing, Hebei and Tianjin. Let the government and enterprises here really love Danjiangkou, the source of their life, and Wudang Mountain, the Taoist culture! This golden sign should continue to shout...3 There is a huge market for biomedicine, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery. As Wudang, eight hundred miles apart, in addition to the unique natural scenery, Chinese herbal medicine is also a treasure hidden in the mountains. It is vigorously developed and under the guidance of the government Regionalization and industrialization will be formed, so that the green mountains and green waters will be worthy of the name Mountain of Flowers and Fruits, Mountain of Gold and Silver...!

Shiyan has entered a recession. A phenomenon is that our vocational high school students have left after graduation, our junior college students have left after graduation, and we have several undergraduate students who have also left after graduation. When can we keep our children, let them stay in Shiyan to work and start a business, and let children from other areas come here to prosper?

Thank you netizen for your question! Regarding the question of "Where is the future development of Yunxi County, Shiyan City, Hubei Province?", I believe that economic construction should still be the main focus, and investment should be accelerated to build a comprehensive moderately prosperous society demonstration zone. Yunxi County is located in the northernmost corner of Hubei Province. The county has a very high degree of ecologicalization, beautiful mountains and rivers, and nourishing people with water and soil. It is suitable for the layout of the tourism industry, focusing on tourism resources to make Yunxi County bigger and stronger, and there is huge room for development.

Yunxi County has good location advantages

and can promote leisure vacations, tourism, elderly care and summer vacation projects based on the mountain and terrain. Strengthen the protection of high-quality natural scenery and regional characteristics, and fully tap regional advantages and cultural brands.

Relying on the charm of the mountain city to promote the construction of modern medium-sized cities, combined with the strong industrial city of Shiyan as the backing, cultural tourism projects are arranged around the leisure and entertainment base of the automobile industry city, and the county economy is guided to achieve leapfrog development.

Personally, I feel that the current development of tourism and ecological breeding in Shiyan may help the economy to a certain extent. Although the minerals include turquoise, they are basically sold as raw stones, and there is not enough deep processing. Of course, relying on minerals to support the economy will ultimately fail.

Currently Shiyan is also in the throes of transformation, and we hope to set development goals based on the actual local conditions. In particular, there is really a lot of room for tourism.
