From 20 14 to 20 17, Zhengzhou's ranking has not changed, and it has stabilized at 17 in the mainland. You know, in the top 20 qualifying, no city is an idle generation, and it is very difficult to make further progress. In the past four years, Zhengzhou's goal is also very clear, that is, to catch up with Foshan.

By 20 17, Foshan is only more than Zhengzhou1900 million. Because the average GDP growth rate of Zhengzhou in these four years is much higher than that of Foshan, Zhengzhou is trying its best to narrow the gap with Foshan.

Huawei's software development cloud innovation center in Zhengzhou also officially landed. This year, Zhengzhou issued relevant policies to accelerate the development of the headquarters economy. Because all major cities are engaged in headquarters economy, Zhengzhou is obviously not far behind. You know, the more giant headquarters there is in a city, the less positive it can be.

In 20 18, Zhengzhou finally surpassed Foshan, and the mainland ranked 16. In this year, the nominal GDP growth rate of Zhengzhou was as high as 16.06%, ranking first among the top 20 cities.

In 2020, Zhengzhou was once again surpassed by Changsha, and its ranking was finally fixed at Chinese mainland 16, Changsha 15 and Wuxi 14. Looking back on 2003, Zhengzhou ranked 29th, but now Zhengzhou is close to Wuxi and Changsha, with a small gap. The gap between the three cities is only.

Zhengzhou is located in the hinterland of Henan Province, with a population of nearly 65,438+billion. It is the shining title of national central city, holding the "Mi-shaped" railway hub and walking on the road of strong province. So I think Zhengzhou has a great chance to surpass Changsha and Wuxi in the future. Of course, Zhengzhou's top priority is to increase efforts to introduce and cultivate high-tech industries, and to enhance the comprehensive competitiveness of science, education, culture and health, so that it can sit at the top of 15.
