　　The world looks at China, and there is often a saying that "see Beijing for a thousand years and Shanghai for a hundred years".

In recent days, the eyes of the world have turned to Shenzhen, the youngest city in China.

This "miracle city" condenses the key to the success of the 40 years of reform and opening up of the special economic zone, and also shoulders the historical mission of China to promote reform and start again under the background of the new era.

　　As the British "Economist" magazine commented, "There are more than 4,000 special economic zones in the world, and the number one success model is the'Shenzhen miracle'." In the past 40 years, Shenzhen has grown from less than 30,000 people when the special zone was established to more than 30,000 people under actual management. China's largest immigrant city of 20 million, its regional GDP has increased by nearly 14,000 times. It has taken 40 years to traverse the course of hundreds of years in some international metropolises abroad, achieved five "historical leaps" and created the world A miracle in the history of development.

　　Seemingly the most common and strange, Shenzhen has also experienced the worries of the "special zone is not special" policy, the bottleneck of "who is abandoned", the worry of "unsustainable" resources, and the "temporary brightness" with other cities. The confusion of competition.

But it is precisely in the process of overcoming these difficulties and overcoming these challenges that the young Pengcheng has accumulated valuable experience of 40 years of reform and opening up and innovative development of the special economic zone.

Shenzhen is not only a brilliant interpretation of socialism with Chinese characteristics on a blank sheet of paper, but also an excellent epitome of China's unswerving reform and opening up.

　　After the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 2012, on the eve of the celebration of the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up in 2018, and the celebration of the 40th anniversary of the establishment of the special economic zone, Xi Jinping, the top leader of China, went to Shenzhen three times within 8 years and presented flower baskets to the bronze statue of Deng Xiaoping twice. "Promoting reform and opening up" has become a constant theme in previous inspections.

As China enters a new stage of development and is forming a new development pattern, Xi Jinping emphasizes to promote reform and opening up from a higher starting point and implement a higher level of reform and opening up, again sending a strong signal that reform will not stop and opening up will not stop.

　　Currently, the global pandemic of the new crown pneumonia epidemic has accelerated the evolution of changes unseen in a century. China's domestic reforms have reached a new historical juncture. The establishment of a new domestic and international dual-cycle development pattern needs to be resolved.

The central government has given Shenzhen a new historical mission and put forward six overall requirements. It is to continue to make good use of the key method of reform and opening up, so that the "vanguard" 40 years ago will again boldly try and venture as a "pioneer". , Take a critical step in the critical period of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

　　From the Central Office and the Office of the State Council issued the "Shenzhen Construction of a Pilot Demonstration Zone of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics Comprehensive Reform Pilot Implementation Plan (2020-2025)", to a package of 27 reform measures and 40 first batch of authorized items, to 10 million digital RMB The test landed in Shenzhen...Shenzhen has embarked on the road of "first demonstration".

　　Forty is not confused. After 40 years of development and innovation, Shenzhen and other special economic zones have once again moved to the forefront of the times; after 40 years of reform and opening up exploration, it is time for China to sum up its experience and set off.

Standing at a new starting point, I believe that Shenzhen will be able to take advantage of the momentum driven by the SAR spirit of daring to try, to be the first, and to work hard.

In this new journey, I believe that China's development achievements will also benefit the world more.
