When will Wanzhou become the second largest city in Chongqing?

The State Council's announcement about building Wanzhou into the second largest city in Chongqing was made before (you can search it if you don't believe me), because Wanzhou is one of the top ten ports along the Yangtze River, with a superior geographical position, which is located in the distribution center of southern Shaanxi, western Hubei, western Hunan, northeastern Guizhou, eastern Sichuan and northeastern Chongqing. By sea, Wanzhou is superior to Chongqing's main city, because the depth of the port is close to Shanghai. Premier Li Keqiang went to the main city of Chongqing to hold a meeting on the Yangtze River Economic Belt, disembarked in Wanzhou, inspected the areas along the Yangtze River, and then took a boat to the main city of Chongqing for a meeting, which explained everything. What's important is that Wanzhou is the central city of Three Gorges immigrants and the benchmark for new immigrants. Due to various reasons, Wanzhou's development into the second largest city in Chongqing is the general direction of the employment of Three Gorges immigrants. The central government and the State Council have always had immigration policies to build the Three Gorges reservoir area into a rich area. Wanzhou used to be a prefecture-level city in eastern Sichuan (under the jurisdiction of three districts and nine counties), and now it is also the largest city within 300 kilometers of Fiona Fang, with a total population of1700,000. Now its economic scale is around 1000 billion, and it is also a land, sea and air transportation city. Especially in the past two years, container terminal construction, airport expansion, high-speed rail, expressway and urban construction have been fully rolled out. It can be said that it is changing with each passing day, and the planned four-port, eight-high and eight-high railways have been gradually realized.

Personal suggestion: Chongqing simulates the development of Wankaiyun three cities. Wanzhou can consider backfilling low-lying areas from the high-speed rail areas along Dongjia, Xiong Jia and Zhou Xiao, and building one or more groups, which can radiate Kaizhou and Yunyang to better connect the two places, then concentrate on development and expansion, and then open up other immature areas.

Now Chongqing is composed of the former old jurisdiction plus Hechuan, Jiangjin, Fuling (including Qianjiang) and Wanxian. Wanxian has always been one of the eight cities in Sichuan. At that time, there were eight cities in Sichuan: Chongqing, Chengdu, Zigong, Luzhou, Nanchong, Neijiang, Yibin and Wanxian. This is a traditional city named after Sichuan city. Of course, after the construction of the third line, a ferry city (Panzhihua) was created. Although nearly half of them belong to county-level cities (including Wanxian City), they are still better than other cities named after counties in Sichuan. This is something that a country will not name indiscriminately. So I think that as long as Wanxian City (now Wanzhou District) develops synchronously with other cities in Chongqing, it must be the second largest city in Chongqing.

Wanzhou's task now is not to be the second largest city, but to aim at the largest district in Chongqing.

Wanzhou can become the second largest city in Chongqing after 1997. In addition, it was decided that Chongqing would be responsible for Wanxian, Fuling and Qianjiang areas before blindness. Yongchuan area merged with Chongqing in the late 1980s. (Please refer to related materials). Becoming the second largest city in Chongqing depends on its unique conditions: First, it is about 300 kilometers away from the main city of Chongqing. Second, Wanzhou has always been a transportation, material and commercial distribution center in more than ten counties in eastern Sichuan (now eastern Chongqing). Third, after Chongqing was directly under the central government, all aspects increased the construction of Wanzhou. Due to the construction of the Three Gorges Project, the special city (Chenjiamao New Town along the Yangtze River) invested in power generation, improved shipping, expanded Wanzhou Port and developed shipping. Is Wanzhou a highway, aviation and five-bridge machine? High-speed railway, plus the largest port in the Three Gorges reservoir area. Wanzhou is densely populated, so it is reasonable to say that Wanzhou has become the second largest city in Chongqing. Among the cities managed by Chongqing, Wanzhou is qualified to be the second largest city in Chongqing.

It is not difficult to build the second largest Chongqing, and it is not easy to rely on Wanzhou alone. Yunnan, Kaifeng and Wanxian counties need to unite to get the initial driving force. Wanzhou's most important geographical location is valuable. If Yunyang is developed in the south of Wanzhou, a special line will be opened to connect Yunyang, with Yunyang as the central goal and surrounded by development resources, it will have great prospects. Wanzhou and Wuqiao airports are connected with Bai Yang and Shilong to the south bank of Yunyang New County, and the golden waterway is opened. This is a golden dragon that leads to Wanzhou and ends at both ends of Yunyang Yangtze River. The rise of the two banks of the river has created a prosperous economy. Straight to hope. It's beautiful.

In fact, Wanzhou has always been the largest regional central city in Chongqing and the largest city in the northeast of Chongqing (the Three Gorges reservoir area). There is no saying when Wanzhou became the second largest city in Chongqing. In 20 17, Fuling's GDP surpassed Wanzhou for the first time, which also led to the growing voice of Fuling becoming the second largest city in Chongqing, but I think this is one-sided and inaccurate.

Wanzhou's strategic supporting role in Chongqing's development and its core driving role in the development of the Three Gorges reservoir area are unmatched by other districts and counties. Hu Jintao, secretary of the National People's Congress, said that in order to build Chongqing into a municipality directly under the central government with overall urban and rural development, the development of the two wings of Chongqing (the southeast wing of Chongqing and the northeast wing of Chongqing) and the Three Gorges reservoir area is particularly important to achieve this goal. In the development of Chongqing, it is far from enough to rely on the radiation of the main city to drive development. There must be a city like Wanzhou as the node of development strategy. As it happens, Wanzhou is located in the center of the Three Gorges reservoir area. Years of development have made Wanzhou an important growth pole of Chongqing's economy and a regional economic center in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

With the construction of Chongqing-Wanzhou Intercity Railway, Zhengzhou-Wanzhou High-speed Railway and Xiyu High-speed Railway, Wanzhou will be more closely linked with cities such as An, Zhengzhou and Xiangyang, and urban development will surely lead to by going up one flight of stairs! Wanzhou is also the county with the best traffic development in Chongqing, where land, water, air and iron are readily available. Wanzhou North Station is second only to Chongqing West Railway Station, Chongqing North Railway Station and Shapingba Station. Wanzhou Wuqiao Airport is the second largest airport in Chongqing and the only city in Chongqing with a first-class port (Wuqiao Airport, if you don't know the first-class port, you can check it online).

Wanzhou in the future will become a big city in Chongqing, an important sub-economic center in southwest China and an important gateway to opening up.

As a Wanzhou person, Wanzhou used to be good. Even if it's abolished, it's okay. After all, this is a traffic artery. Later, it took over the Three Gorges immigrants and became the central city of the Three Gorges immigrants. To tell the truth, although the state allocates funds, it is affected by Wanzhou's topography (less flat land) and the employment problems of its own immigrants. However, the development of Wanzhou has been greatly restricted, such as employment problems, urban congestion and so on. But the development of Wanzhou in recent years is obvious to all. Jiangnan New District, Economic Development Zone, high-speed rail, high-speed (outer ring), airplanes, docks, etc. Even the light rail has been planned. In addition to Wanda (the hundredth number in Wanzhou), a large-scale home logistics of Red Star Macalline is under construction. According to the present layout, Wanzhou cannot develop large-scale industrial enterprises due to the influence of topography and resources, but it is under construction. High-tech industries in the Economic Development Zone will build a troika with the logistics distribution center industry as the core by taking advantage of the main traffic routes, and sail in the east wind of Wan Kaiyun, Chongqing Yuxin Europe and the Three Gorges reservoir area. No matter from which aspect, Wanzhou is full of youth, vitality and great potential. It was the slogan 10 years ago that Wanzhou became the second largest city in Chongqing. According to the current situation of Du Shuji's biography, it is at least enough for Wanzhou's high-speed development 10 years. Therefore, when Wanzhou became the second largest city in Chongqing, the problem itself was out of date.

Personally, I feel a long way to go. Although there is a central positioning. But it mainly depends on the economy. Wanzhou's economic aggregate ranks first outside the main city. But Fuling followed closely. There is a big gap between per capita and Fuling, which is closer to the main city and better driving. From the periphery, the overall strength of northeast Chongqing is much worse than that of west Chongqing. The western part of Chongqing has a strong development and an active economy, and the whole region is blooming in many ways, but it is difficult to ensure that some districts and counties stand out from the encirclement. This section of western Chongqing focuses on geographical location and economic situation, but once there are districts and counties, there will be a tight encirclement. The construction goal of Wanzhou Chongqing Second City is very challenging.

The relationship between "size" and "strength" of a city is not the same. I am an ordinary college student in Chongqing. Evaluating the size of a city mainly depends on the number of permanent residents, without deliberately comparing economy, politics, transportation, education and so on. Wanzhou has a permanent population of about 1.6 million, which is far ahead in other districts and counties in Chongqing. It is an indisputable fact that Wanzhou is the second "big" city in Chongqing, and it will not change for a long time, but its position as the second "strong" city in Chongqing may be surpassed and replaced by other districts and counties.

In recent years, the development of Wanzhou has been stagnant or even negative. Wanzhou is in sharp contrast with Fuling, Yongchuan, Jiangjin and other counties that are developing at a high speed, and its overall strength is not much worse than Wanzhou. I think Wanzhou can still hold the first place in scale and comprehensive strength, but Wanzhou is likely to be surpassed by other counties in the next few years.

Let's look at the population index of Wanzhou first. The permanent population of Wanzhou is about 6.5438+0.65 million, the registered population is about 6.5438+0.75 million, and the net outflow is about 6.5438+0.05 million. The population of Bishan, Yongchuan, Fuling, Jiangjin and other districts and counties is basically the same, and the population of the first three even begins to flow in, which shows that these districts and counties are more attractive and have considerable development potential.

Look at the economic data. 20 19 is the economic data for the first half of this year. Yongchuan, Fuling, Jiangjin and other counties have achieved a nominal economic growth rate of more than 20%, and Yongchuan's economic growth rate is close to 30%. However, Wanzhou's economic performance has been relatively poor in recent years, and its economic growth rate has been ranked at the bottom of all districts and counties in Chongqing for many years, slipping from the fourth place in Chongqing to the sixth place now. If this situation continues, Jiangjin will surpass Wanzhou next year, Yongchuan will surpass Wanzhou the year after next, and Wanzhou will slip to the ninth place in all districts and counties in Chongqing.

However, secretary Wanzhou is also a member of the Standing Committee of Chongqing Municipal Committee at the vice ministerial level, with higher political status and policy resources. Wanzhou has also been entrusted by the state and Chongqing with the important task of driving the poverty-stricken areas of the Three Gorges. Wanzhou also has a large number of large-scale transportation infrastructure projects, such as Chengnan-Wanzhou high-speed railway, Chongqing-Wanzhou high-speed railway, Zhengzhou-Wanzhou high-speed railway, Dawan (straight line) expressway, Yuxi high-speed railway, Wanli high-speed railway (pending approval), Wanzhou-Guizhou high-speed railway (pending approval), Wanzhou rail transit, Wanzhou Airport Phase II expansion and so on. In the next few years, there will be at least three high-speed rail lines in Wanzhou, namely "Chengdu goes directly to Wanzhou", "Chongqing goes through Wanzhou to Zhengzhou" and "Chongqing goes through Wanzhou to Xi 'an", which is the treatment that no prefecture-level city in the whole western region has enjoyed except the provincial capital city. Wanzhou will or has actually become the central city of eastern Sichuan.

However, these are just the advantages brought by Wanzhou's dominance in northeast Chongqing. Compared with Fuling, Yongchuan and Jiangjin, Wanzhou lags behind in economy, industry, employment, education, medical care and attractiveness, and there is still a great possibility of being completely surpassed in the future. Wanzhou, as the second "big" city in Chongqing, will not change for a long time, but if Chongqing is the second "strong" city, there will be opportunities in Fuling, Yongchuan and Jiangjin, and everything is unknown.

Other big data, there is not much to say, and ordinary people don't say anything. The most intuitive thing is narrow roads and outdated urban construction. Just look at the old house in Gaosuntang, which is called the middle circle. Another most eye-catching thing is the bus. You waved to get on the bus and shouted to get off. After climbing uphill for nearly ten years, the engine noise never stops! To tell the truth, if these basic urban facilities and functions are not perfected, what is the second biggest problem? Wake up, go to Kaizhou and learn from others.
