Qingdao shows its full sincerity to connect with well-known enterprises in Shanghai
On the morning of June 28, a collective talk of professional cadres going to Shanghai was held in the conference center of Qingdao Municipal Government. Wang Qingxian, Member of the Standing Committee of Shandong Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of Qingdao Municipal Party Committee, attended the forum and had a collective talk with the first group of professional cadres. It is worth mentioning that the 51 cadres from Qingdao will go to 18 famous enterprises and institutions in Shanghai, including Shanghai Pudong Development Bank, Shanghai Stock Exchange and Fosun Group. The training will last two and a half months.
In addition to the training team, Qingdao will also send high-level party and government delegations to Shanghai for close study and research, visiting famous enterprises and institutions in Shanghai, and showing their sincerity in study to the greatest extent.
In the headquarters of China Shipowners Mutual Assurance Association, Wang Qingxian had a discussion with its General Manager, Song Chunfeng, hoping that they could play the role of industry leading association, drive member enterprises to invest and develop in Qingdao, and facilitate the construction of Qingdao International Shipping Trade Financial Innovation Center.
In Fudan University, Wang Qingxian and Jiao Yang, Secretary of the Party Committee of Fudan University, had in-depth exchanges on promoting the cooperation between the city and the university, and witnessed the signing of the Memorandum of Cooperation on the Project of National Engineering Research Center for Cardiovascular Equipment of Fudan University.
At the Shanghai Futures Exchange, Wang Qingxian had discussions with Jiang Yan, Secretary and Chairman of its Party Committee, and Wang Fenghai, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and General Manager of the Shanghai Futures Exchange, to promote cooperation in building a multi-layer commodity trading market with connectivity among future and spot goods, on and off the market, domestic and overseas, and online and offline.
At the head office of Bank of Communications, Wang Qingxian had a discussion with Ren Deqi, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the bank's head Office, expressing the hope that the Bank of Communications could make its layout in Qingdao in the strategic coordinates of national opening-up and development, and deeply participate in the construction of Qingdao International Shipping Trade Financial Innovation Center and the Capital of World Industrial Internet.
At GLP's headquarters in China, Wang Qingxian had an in-depth consultation with GLP'S CEO and co-founder Mei Zhiming. He hoped that GLP would actively integrate into the industrial chain layout in Qingdao, deepen communication and connection in intelligent logistics, new energy vehicles, robots, sensors and other fields, and achieve win-win cooperation.
Qingdao Party and Government delegations made intensive and substantial visits to famous enterprises in Shanghai, which exactly reflects Qingdao's determination to learn modern service industry from Shanghai and complete the transformation and upgrading of urban industries.
Why do enterprises stand in the center position when Qingdao learns from Shanghai?
At present, Qingdao is still in the throes of replacing old drivers of growth with new ones. "Five Golden Flowers" is still the name card of the city, and the new generation of pillar enterprises in emerging industries still need to be explored. The data is the best proof. In the first quarter of 2020, Qingdao's tertiary industry accounted for 66.4% of the total. Although there is an obvious trend of industrial upgrading, there is still a big gap between Qingdao and Shanghai in the field of modern service industry, which will determine the development direction in the future. This is also the main purpose of Qingdao's study trip.
In recent years, Qingdao has always placed entrepreneurs in an important position of urban development.
In November 2019, Wang Qingxian presented in Shanghai for the first time as the Party Secretary of Qingdao, inviting entrepreneurs from all over the country and the world. Now, less than a year later, Wang Qingxian once again came to Shanghai to learn from famous enterprises in Shanghai, and visited famous enterprises and institutions and introduced Qingdao to the whole country and the whole world. All these reflect the up-down concept of Qingdao and its respect for enterprises and entrepreneurs.
This time, the Party Secretary of Qingdao once again led a team to Shanghai to promote and connect with famous enterprises, showing Qingdao's determination to dive down, lower its attitude and actively learn from advanced cities. And visiting famous local enterprises and institutions is to realize the full interconnection between various resources and Qingdao, and make the most of their resources and experience to promote the rapid development of Qingdao's modern service industry to achieve new breakthroughs.
