Agglomerate consumption, lead consumption (open talk)
Recently, the "Fourteenth Five-Year Plan for Business Development" was officially issued, proposing that China will form a number of comprehensive international consumer centers that are based at home, radiate to the periphery, and face the world.
This is a new bright spot in the current reform and opening up and economic development.
Focusing on the construction of an international consumption center city will help promote a high-level opening to the outside world, promote the improvement of people's livelihood to a new level, and help accelerate the construction of a new development pattern.
The international consumption center city is one of the core functions of a modern international metropolis. It is a gathering place of consumption resources and the commanding height of a country and even the global consumer market. It has a strong consumption leading and leading role.
The general law of development in various countries shows that one of the concentrated manifestations of the progress of social civilization and the improvement of people's well-being is the formation of multiple international metropolises on the basis of improved systems and mechanisms, improved efficiency of factor resource allocation, and improved quality of economic development.
Promoting the construction of an international consumption center city is one of the key links in promoting the construction of a modern international metropolis.
To promote the construction of an international consumption center city, the core goal should be the continuous improvement of people's living standards.
To this end, a modern urban infrastructure system and public service system that are livable and suitable for business must be ensured, and modern industrial systems with various characteristics must be used as support.
The construction of an international consumption center city must be promoted as a system project as a whole.
Relying on the excellent urban environment and internationally competitive industrial clusters, it can effectively increase the popularity of the city and the purchasing power of residents, and form a leading force supporting the development of the international consumer market.
To build a modern infrastructure system and a public service guarantee system, the role of the government must be better brought into play.
Since the reform and opening up, urbanization has made great achievements, but due to the function of mainly relying on the market to gather and allocate resources, there are still obvious shortcomings in the infrastructure system and public service guarantee capacity building.
To promote the construction of an international consumption center city, it is necessary to speed up the filling of shortcomings, and build the infrastructure system and public service capabilities of relevant cities in accordance with the requirements of good to good and high standards.
To promote the construction of an international consumption center city, we must adhere to world standards and Chinese characteristics.
It is necessary to deepen the reform of the socialist market economy system with Chinese characteristics, including the development of the property rights system and factor market, pilot free trade zones, internationalization, and legalization of the business environment, and closely integrate the practice of building an international consumption center city.
Through the improvement of systems and mechanisms, we will promote the improvement of the urban soft environment, promote the development of urban industries and the improvement of international competitiveness, continue to deepen the degree of integration with the international market, and promote the further improvement of systems and mechanisms through opening up.
Rely on the comprehensive improvement of the urban hard and soft environments to support the construction of consumer centers in the international market.
Build the international consumption center city into a new highland and new model of China's reform and opening up.
The construction of an international consumption center city must also be carried out in a practical and detailed manner.
It is necessary to promote the dislocation development of urban business circles, high-quality transformation and upgrading of pedestrian streets, promote the formation of a group of popular, distinctive, and culturally-rich pedestrian streets, actively develop smart neighborhoods and smart business circles, and improve facility convenience and intelligence. Do a solid job in related work.
It should be closely integrated with the implementation of the overall strategy of expanding domestic demand, cultivating a strong domestic market, smoothing the domestic cycle, promoting the domestic and international dual cycle, and accelerating the construction of a new development pattern, so as to see the new atmosphere and show a new look as soon as possible.
