　　Unbalanced and uncoordinated regional development has always been a prominent problem plaguing the development of Guangdong.

In June 2018, Guangdong clearly guided by the strategic positioning of functional areas, accelerated the formation of a new regional development pattern of "one core, one belt, one area" consisting of the core area of ​​the Pearl River Delta, the coastal economic belt, and the northern ecological development area, and continued to promote regional coordination. develop.

　　Zhu Wei pointed out at the press conference that from the actual effect, the three functional areas of Guangdong's "nuclear", "belt" and "area" are developing smoothly on their respective tracks, and the differentiated development trend is becoming more and more obvious.

　　——Innovation-driven and demonstration-driven trends in the core area of ​​the Pearl River Delta are emerging.

The high-quality resources and high-end industries in the core area of ​​the Pearl River Delta have been further gathered, and the cultivation of new kinetic energy and new advantages has been accelerated. It has entered the fast lane of high-quality development, and its radiating and driving effect on Guangdong Province is also increasing, which strongly supports the continuous innovation and comprehensive ability of Guangdong region. It has ranked first in the country for 5 years, and a number of key core technologies are being solved. In addition, in the fields of artificial intelligence and ultra-high-definition video, a number of emerging industry clusters have also been cultivated and formed.

　　——The coastal economic belt has an obvious trend of coordinating land and sea, and the linkage of port production.

The coastal economic belt (including the coastal areas of the Pearl River Delta) has 600 million tons of ports in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Dongguan, Zhanjiang, Jiangmen, etc., creating 80% of the province's total economic output and generating 90% of the province's total import and export volume. As the main battlefield for the development of Guangdong Province, it has become increasingly prominent.

During the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, more than 660 industrial projects with an investment of more than 1 billion yuan were intensively implemented, and major projects of more than 10 billion US dollars such as BASF, ExxonMobil, and China Overseas Shell were also successfully settled in these places.

　　——The ecological priority and green development trend of the northern ecological development zone is also emerging.

The ecological environment in the north continues to be the best in the province, with an average of 96.4% of days with good air quality, 97.1% of sections with good surface water quality, and 100% of all centralized drinking water sources meet the standard.

The construction of the ecological industry system has been accelerated, and industries such as modern agriculture, eco-tourism, and cultural tourism have flourished. The "rice bags", "vegetable baskets", "fruit plates" and "water tanks" connecting the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area are being formed at an accelerated pace.

　　Zhu Wei said that while strengthening the main functions of each region, Guangdong pays more attention to the coordinated development of "core", "belt" and "region".

Since the "13th Five-Year Plan", the east wing of the coastal economic belt (4 cities of Shantou, Shanwei, Chaozhou and Jieyang), the west wing of the coastal economic belt (3 cities of Yangjiang, Zhanjiang and Maoming), and the 5 cities in the northern ecological development zone The average annual growth rate was 2.1, 1.2 and 1.5 percentage points higher than that of the Pearl River Delta, respectively.

　　At the same time, the per capita disposable income of residents in the east and west wings of the coastal economic belt and the northern ecological development zone increased from 16,844 yuan to 27,191 yuan, an increase of 61%, gradually narrowing the gap with the core area of ​​the Pearl River Delta.
