Changes in Longhua in recent years

At the northern foot of Yanshan Mountain, the mountains are green, and the Ethan River is inlaid with Longhua, a new county town known as the Pearl of the Great Wall, with the shadow of Mount Tai and clear water. Longhua County is a mountainous agricultural county with "eight mountains, one water and one field". Longhua is located in the north of Hebei Province, with a land area of 5,497 square kilometers, ranking third in the province, where Dong Cunrui, a famous national fighting hero, died. The county has jurisdiction over 25 townships and 362 administrative villages, with a total population of nearly 430,000 and a minority population of nearly 230,000. It is a national county designated by the provincial government.

In the 60 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, especially in the 30 years since the reform and opening up, inspired by the spirit of saving Switzerland and under the correct leadership of successive county committees and governments, the people of Longhua have forged ahead in unity and made remarkable achievements. The pace of county economic development is accelerating year by year, people's living standards are improving rapidly, the urban and rural landscape is changing year by year, and the comprehensive strength of the county is obviously enhanced, showing a gratifying scene of prosperity. In 2008, the county's GDP reached 5.53 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of17.2%; The total fiscal revenue was 840 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of1001%; The investment in fixed assets of the whole society was 3.06 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 29.6%; Total retail sales of social consumer goods10.42 billion yuan, up 22.5% year-on-year; Per capita disposable income of urban residents 1083 1 yuan, up19.9% year-on-year; The per capita net income of farmers was 3,200 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15. 1%. Regardless of the actual purchasing power, compared with the early days of reform and opening up, the fiscal revenue increased by 97 times, and the per capita net income of farmers increased from 10 yuan in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China to 3,200 yuan now, an increase of 320 times.

The strategy of establishing a county by industry was solidly promoted.

Longhua County, located in the mountainous area beyond the Great Wall, is a national poverty-stricken county. In the early days of the People's Republic of China, there were only over 900 handicrafts, 1300 employees, and there were three or four small state-owned workshops. Compared with developed areas, there is a big gap in transportation, location, foundation and concept, which leads to slow development. In the early days of reform and opening up, after nearly 30 years of development, there were only 10 enterprises in the county, and the industrial output value was only about 20 million yuan.

Since the reform and opening up, Longhua County has increased its investment in industrial enterprises, and a large number of state-owned enterprises such as valve factories, paper mills and fertilizer plants have been launched one after another, which has promoted the rapid development of Longhua's industrial economy in the 1980s and 1990s. Especially in recent years, our county has determined the correct thinking of establishing a county through industry. By continuously improving the quality and efficiency of economic operation, the county's industrial economic development has shown a good trend of accelerating pace, improving efficiency and strengthening strength. Up to now, there are 2 15 industrial enterprises in the county. Longhua County has developed three leading industries, namely, mining and processing of mineral products, processing of agricultural and sideline products, and manufacturing of mechanical and electrical products, according to the actual situation of the county, and promoted the development of industrial economy to a new level by grasping investment and projects.

As early as seven years ago, Longhua county made a forward-looking decision that "all industries and towns with conditions in the county should take the lead in development", striving for a little breakthrough, constantly expanding the achievements, driving the balanced development of other industries and regions, and finally realizing the pattern of "multi-point flowering".

In the process of promoting industrial development, Longhua County vigorously promoted the implementation of "3433" work plan on the basis of the success of "2423" work plan, which promoted the leap-forward development of industrial economy. Vigorously implement the strategy of establishing a county by industry, and encourage qualified towns and villages to enhance their awareness of establishing a town by industry. The atmosphere of Qi Xin in the whole county working together to catch industry has been further strengthened, and the industrial economy has entered a period with the largest investment, the fastest development, the best benefit and the greatest contribution. According to the principle of intensive development and industrial agglomeration, the industrial "four parks" are planned and implemented in depth, and the allocation of production factors is inclined to the park, and new projects are dominated by the park. The county industrial park, which mainly manufactures mechanical and electrical products and agricultural and sideline products, has begun to take shape. The development of Hanmaying and Guanzhong industrial parks, which mainly focus on the comprehensive development and utilization of vanadium, titanium, iron and phosphorus, has been accelerated, and Guojiatun industrial park, which mainly focuses on the collection of rare and precious metals such as lead, zinc and copper, is starting. To speed up the pace of enterprise restructuring and technological transformation and capacity expansion, a number of large group enterprises have been formed in the county. The scale of key enterprises has been further expanded, the production capacity has been further enhanced, the technical content of products has been further improved, and the vitality of enterprises has been further reflected.

Under the strategic background of establishing a county by industry, our county has developed a number of pillar enterprises with high scientific and technological content, good development prospects and great industrial benefits. Goldwind Electric Control Equipment Co., Ltd. is a comprehensive manufacturer of large-scale wind power generation equipment and distribution equipment. The 650 kW and 700 kW large-scale wind turbines independently developed by the company are connected to the grid to generate electricity in Inner Mongolia, Liaoning, Chengde Bashang and other places, which has produced huge economic benefits. Chengde High Pressure Valve Fittings Co., Ltd. is a major chemical valve manufacturer in northern China. Its products are in short supply in the domestic market and exported to Southeast Asia, Europe, America and Russia. Cement plant is the leading enterprise in building materials production in our county, and the "Hi-Up-Hi" brand cement produced is a provincial "consumer trusted product". Chengde Hongtai Group is the first private enterprise in our city to go abroad, and has undertaken expressway construction projects in Ethiopia, Africa.

At the same time, Longhua County attached great importance to energy conservation and emission reduction, started the implementation of the "238" environmental protection project, actively promoted the wide application of energy-saving technology in enterprises, completed the technical transformation of 322 motors, closed 2 1 "15 small" enterprises, dismantled the cement shaft kiln production line, completed the main project of the county sewage treatment plant, and started the construction of a garbage treatment plant. The county's energy consumption per 10,000 yuan GDP decreased by 6.3%, and the energy consumption per 10,000 yuan industrial added value decreased by 13.6%, and the work of energy conservation and emission reduction achieved initial results.

Agricultural industry enriches the people and increases income.

As a large agricultural county, grain output is an important indicator of economic development. From the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China to the eve of reform and opening up, the agricultural development in our county was slow, and the variety of crops in the county was single, mainly corn, millet and sorghum, and the grain output was low. At the beginning of reform and opening up, the per capita net income of farmers was only 70 yuan, and some farmers had not solved the problem of food and clothing. Since 1980s, our county has realized the modernization of agricultural production through structural adjustment, variety improvement, scientific planting and demonstration. In 2008, there was another bumper harvest in our county, with a total output of 300,000 tons and a grain planting area of 580,000 mu. The planting structure of main crops such as rice and corn is reasonable, and the varieties are constantly optimized.

In recent years, the party committee and government of Longhua County have developed agriculture closely around the main line of increasing agricultural efficiency, increasing farmers' income and rural progress, constantly intensified the adjustment of agricultural structure, persisted in grasping agricultural industrialization with the idea and thinking of grasping industry, and actively promoted the process of agricultural industrialization. According to the development idea of "large-scale base and leading industry", the concentration of the four leading industries "cattle raising, rice, seed production, two apricots and one fruit", which are mainly cattle, has been further improved, the deep processing capacity of agricultural and sideline products has been further enhanced, and the industrial operation has been rapidly promoted.

At present, the county raises 400,000 cattle, the rice planting area reaches 230,000 mu, the hybrid corn seed production reaches 6.5438+0.5 million mu, and the base area of two apricots and one fruit exceeds 6.5438+0.5 million mu. At the same time, cash crops such as jet lag vegetables, Chinese herbal medicines, marigold and oil sunflower, and characteristic industries such as rex rabbits and edible fungi have begun to take shape.

Longhua County is vigorously supporting leading enterprises and cultivating market brands in accelerating the development of agricultural industrialization. Chengde Challenge Food Co., Ltd. integrates feed production, beef cattle breeding, slaughtering, processing and sales, and is an advanced unit of leading agricultural industrialization enterprises in Chengde City. Sanbei Seed Industry Co., Ltd. ranks among the "Top 50 Seed Industries in China" 1 1, and is a leading seed industry enterprise in Hebei Province. "Three North" brand series seeds are famous brand products in Hebei Province. Participated in the national seed industry exchange meeting for many times, and the sales service network covered 26 provinces and cities across the country. Chengde Longquan Rice Industry Co., Ltd. is a provincial leading enterprise in agricultural industrialization and poverty alleviation. "Longquan" brand rice has been rated as a famous brand product in Hebei Province for three years in a row, selling well in more than ten provinces and cities at home and abroad, and some products have entered the international market. Chengde Hongyuan Fruit Industry Co., Ltd. has two national invention patents and is engaged in the research, development, production and sales of various raw fruit vinegar and hawthorn deep-processed products. It is a key leading enterprise in agricultural industrialization in Hebei Province, and its products have more than 30 varieties in 7 series, which are well received by consumers at home and abroad. Chengde Green Food Co., Ltd.' s series of "Green" brand foods have been awarded the titles of "Famous Protected Brand in China" and "Safe Healthy Food in China Market" by the relevant state departments, and some products have entered the international market.

The pace of agricultural industrialization quickly followed. According to the idea of "building leading enterprises, expanding markets, leading industries and increasing income", the county has continuously increased its support, promoted the upgrading of leading enterprises, and generally increased farmers' income. Nowadays, relying on the four industrial advantages of raising cattle, rice, seed production and "two apricots and one fruit" and the brand advantages of Hongyuan, Longquan and Green, the construction of agricultural industrialization projects presents a good situation of increasing high value-added projects, scientific and technological projects and private capital investment projects. At present, there are 30 leading agricultural industrialization enterprises at the provincial and municipal levels in the county, ranking first in the city, with an industrialization operating rate of over 70%.

Cultural tourism has sprung up everywhere.

Longhua is the only place where the Qing emperor went north in autumn, and it is also the place where Dong Cunrui, a famous national fighting hero, died heroically. In recent years, Longhua county has taken tourism as the leader of the tertiary industry to plant trees. With the help of Hebei Province's development plan of leisure tourism industrial belt around Beijing and Tianjin and Chengde's development strategy of building an international tourism and leisure city and a big summer resort, Longhua County has vigorously developed industrial products from a high starting point.

Longhua county is rich in tourism resources. At present, there are 3 national 2A-level tourist attractions and 3-star hotels 1 home, which receive 400,000 tourists annually. In order to transform the resource advantage into the industrial advantage, Longhua County, based on the actual situation of the county, determined the "one point, one side and one line" tourism regional layout through investigation and demonstration. One is the scenic spot around the county with Dong Cunrui Martyrs Cemetery as the center. One is the joint scenic spot of Maojingba Hot Spring and Forest Park centered on Qijia. The first line is the scenic spots along the way from Guanzhong Palace, Dong Cunrui Mausoleum, National Museum, Zhang Sanying Palace and Tang Sanying to Longhua. In terms of tourism products, we will build a red scenic spot with the theme of Dong Cunrui Mausoleum, a green scenic spot with the theme of seven Maojingba hot spring forests, and a royal Manchu-Mongolian scenic spot with the theme of Guanzhong Palace, Museum, Zhang Sanying Palace and Tang Sanying Mulan paddock, thus forming three distinctive tourism brands of "one red, one green and one emperor".

Longhua county has a profound cultural heritage and rich cultural activities. The traditional Manchu performance "Ergui Wrestling" participated in the National People's Games for many times and was rated as a national intangible cultural heritage protection project. "Eight eccentrics" and "overlord whip" are listed in the provincial intangible cultural heritage list; "Hundred Schools with Royal Beauty" was approved as a provincial intangible heritage protection project. Longhua County has achieved fruitful literary and artistic creation, and the county writers have created and published more than 80 works. Li, a singer of migrant workers in Tangtougou Town, Beijing, sang his own song "Waves" at the CCTV Lantern Festival in 2007, which deeply touched hundreds of millions of viewers across the country.

The infrastructure is improving day by day.

In terms of infrastructure construction, Longhua County firmly seized the opportunity of superior support for infrastructure construction in poverty-stricken areas, raised funds in various ways, and focused on solving the problem of lagging water, electricity and roads in the county.

From the founding of the People's Republic of China to the early days of reform and opening up, Longhua County's transportation infrastructure was relatively backward, with a total highway mileage of only over 700 kilometers. After 30 years of unremitting efforts, the total mileage of highways in the county has reached 2435 kilometers, and all 25 towns and villages have access to oil roads. You can reach any town within 1 hour from the county seat, and 70% of the villages are connected with oil roads or cement roads. In 2006, with an investment of 300 million yuan, the Han-Guo Highway connected with the national highway 10 1 was completed and opened to traffic. This is the only provincial road in our city whose starting point and ending point are in one county. Its completion has broken the bottleneck that restricts the development of 1 1 towns in the northwest of Longhua County.

Since the reform and opening up, Longhua County's power security capability has been significantly enhanced. By the end of 1996, all 362 administrative villages in 25 towns and villages had been electrified, realizing household connection. On the basis of the decline in unit output value and energy consumption, the electricity consumption has increased from 4.63 million kWh in 1972 to 540 million kWh now.

To speed up the development of communication, the communication coverage area of the county has been continuously expanded, and the network coverage rate of administrative villages has reached 100%. Taking the opportunity of the three-year renovation activities, we have made great efforts to improve the living environment, and successively completed the renovation and construction project of "six roads, five streets and fifteen lanes" in the county town, and built the central square and hero square of the county town, which has added leisure and entertainment places for residents. The completion of the first, second and third rubber dams has optimized the allocation of water resources and recreated the beautiful landscape of "Taishan Tower Shadow" and "One Water Tuolan". Central heating in the county reduces the emission of smoke and noise, purifies the environment and improves the city's taste.

The construction of harmonious Longhua has been steadily advanced.

In recent years, Longhua county has accelerated the development of various social undertakings, and all walks of life have shown a thriving situation. In the development of education and sports, "nine-year consistent system", "nine-year consistent experimental teaching" and "popularizing three-year preschool education" have passed the acceptance of the state and the province. Vocational education and out-of-school education for teenagers are advanced in the whole country. Since the reform and opening up, Longhua County has made great progress in health care, forming a three-level health service system integrating medical treatment, preventive health care and science and education. Longhua county is the first batch of rural cooperative medical care pilot counties, and the current participation rate reaches 87.7%. With the continuous improvement of the social security system, Longhua County has trained more than 60,000 laid-off workers and rural surplus laborers, and its foreign labor service is at the forefront of the province. Over the years, Longhua county has vigorously carried forward the glorious tradition of supporting the army and being superior to its subordinates, and has been rated as a provincial model county with double support. At the same time, Longhua County has made unremitting efforts in party building, solidly carried out activities to create spiritual civilization, steadily promoted the construction of new countryside, and carried out activities to create a peaceful Longhua. In the 60 years since the founding of New China, especially in the 30 years since the reform and opening up, Longhua County has enjoyed political stability, social harmony and people living and working in peace and contentment.

60 years of hardships and hardships have made 60 years of vicissitudes and created 60 years of glory. Looking into the future, 430,000 people in Longhua County will, under the leadership of the county party committee and government, further emancipate their minds, implement Scientific Outlook on Development, constantly create a new situation in various undertakings, and move towards newer and better goals.
