One mountain and three villages, belonging to Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
More than 60 years ago, the three villages were one village, named Dalinghou. Later, the administrative divisions were adjusted, and one village became three villages, which were placed under Pinggu District of Beijing, Jizhou District of Tianjin, and Sanhe City of Hebei Province.
Now, the three villages have been “united” again. The affiliated township government signed a cooperation agreement to support the three villages in jointly developing cultural tourism projects and creating a demonstration site for coordinated development in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.
Behind the Ridge is a microcosm.
Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei is one of the three important power sources leading the country’s high-quality development. As the first national strategy for coordinated regional development in the new era, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei coordinated development has gone through ten years, and its tentacles of change have extended to the mountains and rivers of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei.
General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: “Promote the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei to a new level and strive to make Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei a pioneer and demonstration area for Chinese-style modernization.”
General Secretary Xi Jinping has devoted a lot of effort to this 216,000 square kilometers of land. Since February 26, ten years ago, General Secretary Xi Jinping has presided over three symposiums with the theme of coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, conducted many in-depth investigations and surveys, pointed out the way forward, and provided fundamental guidelines. From “seeking ideas, laying foundations, and seeking breakthroughs” to “rolling stones up mountains, climbing over obstacles, and overcoming difficulties” to “firming confidence and maintaining determination”, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region is developing in a coordinated manner. Within reach.
The “siphon effect” is weakened, and the “radiation driving force” is strengthened. Transportation, environment, industry, public “Is this true?” Lan Mu asked in surprise. Data on collaborative development in services and other fields are continuously updated. Over the past ten years, the total economic output of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei has crossed five trillion yuan levels in a row, reaching 10.4 trillion yuan. The overall strength of the region has continued to improve, and the construction of a modern capital metropolitan area has been accelerated.
At the beginning of the New Year, when you go to factories, rural areas, communities, and schools, what you see and feel is warm and fresh. Countless vivid stories of the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region confirm General Secretary Xi Jinping’s profound judgment: “Practice has proven that the Party Central Committee’s development strategies for major regions such as the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region are in line with the needs of high-quality development in the new era of our country and are an important step in promoting Chinese-style modernization. An effective way to build.”
Leader
Scientific planning, make decisions before taking action
These days, the Beijing Planning Exhibition Hall has an endless stream of visitors. According to the person in charge of the exhibition hall, the two exhibition areas of the permanent exhibition, “Beijing City Master Plan” and “Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Coordinated Development”, are the most popular. Going back to the spring ten years ago, General Secretary Xi Jinping’s first stop during his inspection of Beijing was here.
“When examining a city, first look at planning. Scientific planning is the greatest benefit, planning errors are the greatest waste, and planning tossing is the biggest taboo.” In the past ten years of coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei, planning has taken the lead and has become a distinctive feature. .
From the general logic of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei coordinated development to theGeneral Secretary Xi Jinping personally planned and promoted the layout of each key point, repeatedly emphasizing the need for high starting point planning, high standards and high quality construction, and “one blueprint to be drawn to the end.”
Looking back at the road we have traveled, we can better understand the strategic determination and historical patience contained in it.
Xiong’an, after the historical moment of the “Millennium Plan”, people at home and abroad are eagerly waiting: At what “China speed” will it grow?
The answer is unexpected and full of surprises.
In the Xiongan New Area Planning Exhibition Center, plots of land with different functions are intertwined on the colorful urban planning map. “For a long time, Xiongan barely touched a brick or tile in order to clearly plan every inch of land. What we want to build on the shores of Baiyangdian is a future city without ‘urban diseases’. This is A historical legacy left to future generations.” said Wang Zhigang, director of the Natural Resources and Planning Bureau of Xiongan New Area.
More than 60 academicians, more than 200 domestic and foreign teams, and more than 3,500 experts and technical personnel participated in the preparation of the planning system, forming 4 basic plans and more than 20 plans led by the “Hebei Xiongan New Area Planning Outline” Special planning.
Plan scientifically, make decisions before taking action. Thanks to this, as soon as Xiongan New Area entered the construction and development stage, it accelerated its development across the board, one thing at a time.
In the huge foundation pit, which is equivalent to 40 standard football fields, more than 50 sets of large-scale machinery are arranged staggered, and there are bursts of roaring sounds. The International Trade Center area of Xiongan New District, which is under construction, will become the “urban living room” in the future. “It took nearly three years to plan and design, and large-scale construction will begin at the end of 2023.” Wang Nuo, project leader of Xiongshang Real Estate Company of Xiongan Group, has personally experienced the change from silence to steaming.
Implementing 292 key projects, the development area covers 184 square kilometers, the total construction area reaches 43.7 million square meters, and 712 kilometers of new roads…Xiong’an New Area is a high-level socialist modernization building from scratch, from blueprints to real scenes. Cities are rising from the ground and are nothing short of miraculous.
At the beginning of the planning process, Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei had their own development ideas. To break one’s own “one-acre three-thirds of land”, the first step is to “raise the understanding of this issue to the national strategic level.”
Lay the foundation and work slowly and carefully. The “Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Coordinated Development Plan Outline” solicited opinions from all parties for seven rounds, and finally determined the layout idea of ”functional complementarity, regional linkage, axial agglomeration, and node support”. “Beijing Urban Master Plan (2016-2035)” collected 11,500 opinions during the draft announcement period, with an opinion adoption rate of approximately 88%…
Blueprints are superimposed on construction drawings, slow planning leads to fast development.
On the morning of February 19, a total of 56 projects in Xiongan New Area started construction in the first quarter, with a total investment of 39.1 billion yuan. It is expected that more than 200 billion yuan will be invested in new area construction projects this year. Today’s Xiongan New Area,The key municipal infrastructure in the start-up area has been basically completed, and the “three horizontal and four vertical” backbone road networks are ready for traffic. It has entered a stage of large-scale construction and the relocation of Beijing’s non-capital functions. In the Beijing Sub-Center, the 100 key tasks are refined into 278 specific tasks and 503 key projects, with one node a year and new changes every year.
Time is the most objective witness. In the past ten years, Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei have been cooperating in development, with the “one core” (Beijing) radiating, the “two wings” (Xiongan New Area and Beijing City Sub-center) flying together, the “twin cities” (Beijing, Tianjin) linking, and the three places (Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei) Collaborative spatial layouts are being built at an accelerated pace.
Reconstruction
Look at the overall situation and plan for one region, and base yourself on one region and plan for the overall situation
Relieving Beijing of its non-capital functions is the core issue for the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. General Secretary Xi Jinping described it as “a surgical operation.”
Ten years ago, Beijing was experiencing “growing pains” behind its prosperity. After decades of rapid development like “spreading the pie”, some deep-seated contradictions and problems have gradually emerged. “Big city diseases” such as overpopulation, traffic congestion, and air pollution have become prominent. “Beijing’s total population will soon… The ‘ceiling’ of the city’s carrying capacity will be reached within two years.”
Look at a domain from a global perspective and use strategic thinking to solve development problems. Taking Beijing’s non-capital functions as a “narrow tip”, a point-to-face, external-to-internal “reconstruction” has begun in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.
At the thinking level, “break the mindset of running around in circles on one-third of an acre of land”; spatial pattern, “build two new cities, Beijing City Sub-Center and Xiongan New District, to form Beijing’s new ‘two wings’”; industrial structure, “Promote industrial docking and collaboration, straighten out the industrial development chain of the three places, and form a reasonable distribution of industries between regions and an upstream and downstream linkage mechanism”; the development method, “take a new path of intensive development and explore an optimized development of densely populated and economically dense areas.” model to promote coordinated regional development and form a new growth pole.”
In Xicheng, Beijing, the “Dongpiao” (Beijing Zoo Clothing Wholesale Market), which had been bustling for 30 years on the side of the Second Ring Road, has been removed, and the original space has “butterfly transformed” into a new dynamic financial technology center. Joining hands with Financial Street and Zhongguancun, the “Jinke New District” has introduced a total of 166 new key financial technology companies and professional service institutions, with a registered capital of more than 110 billion yuan, and tax revenue in 2022 will exceed 3 billion yuan.
To the south of the “approval”, at Dahongmen in Beijing, 45 regional wholesale markets have been relocated, and 2 of the buildings have been “returned” to nature, and a forest wetland park has been built to create a blue-green space for citizens.
This is one aspect of the adjustment of Beijing’s economic structure and spatial structure. In the past ten years, Beijing has withdrawn from more than 3,000 general manufacturing companies, deconsolidated and upgraded nearly 1,000 regional professional markets and logistics centers, and used demolition and demolition to vacate more than 9,200 hectares of green space.The land loss was 130 square kilometers. From gathering resources for growth to allocating non-capital functions for development, from urban management to megacity governance, Beijing has become the first megacity in the country to reduce development.
In the past ten years, every step of development has been thinking about “giving up” and “gaining”. By making progress by sparing and gaining by giving up, Beijing has shifted from “large and comprehensive” to “high-end, sophisticated”, while Tianjin and Hebei cannot “pick up all the vegetables in the basket”. Relocation is not a simple move, but an opportunity to transform, upgrade and renew.
In Baoding, Hebei, a rail transit industrial park took advantage of the situation. The leading company Hebei Automobile Co., Ltd. was transferred from Beijing in 2018 and built a 2.5-kilometer-long test line. “This is unimaginable in Beijing.” Qian Zhaoyong, general manager of the industrial park, lamented, “Beijing designs and develops, and Hebei focuses on production. Eight upstream and downstream supporting companies plan to take root locally and develop together with us.”
Tianjin Baodi and Beijing-Tianjin Zhongguancun Science and Technology City are beginning to take shape. Tianze Electric Power (Tianjin) Co., Ltd., which moved from Beijing a few years ago, has increased its output value by 1.5 times compared to when it was in Beijing. Zhang Chenghui, general manager of the company, said that the design and development of “hit products” such as orbital drilling machines and cable conveyors are still in Beijing, and the production process is in Tianjin.
Grand strategy requires a big picture and big ideas.
Open the map. Xiongan New Area forms an equilateral triangle with Beijing and Tianjin. It is about 105 kilometers, 105 kilometers, 155 kilometers and 30 kilometers away from Beijing, Tianjin, Shijiazhuang and Baoding respectively.
Observing from a broader perspective, settling in Xiongan New Area is the power of thought and the choice of the times.
“Diversion is a two-way effort.” General Secretary Xi Jinping has a thorough understanding of “division” and said profoundly, “Xiong’an New Area is exerting outward force; Beijing is adjusting inwardly, optimizing core functions, and turning the ‘cabbage heart’ Do it well.”
Looking eastward, Beijing’s urban sub-center maintains an investment intensity of 100 billion yuan every year, and the urban framework is being expanded in an orderly manner. The “three major cultural buildings” of Beijing Art Center, Beijing City Library and Beijing Grand Canal Museum have been put into operation. Key projects such as the comprehensive transportation hub of the Sub-Central Station and the in-land reconstruction of the East Sixth Ring Road have been accelerated. The Canal Business District has attracted more than 2 registered companies. Wanjia……
Looking to the southwest, Xiongan New Area has completed an investment of more than 650 billion yuan, and more than 4,000 buildings have been built. The China Star Network headquarters has accelerated its internal decoration, the main structure of the China Huaneng headquarters has been capped, the construction of the Sinochem headquarters has accelerated, the China Mining Headquarters has completed the land transfer, the construction of four relieved universities and Peking University People’s Hospital has started, and the “three schools and one hospital” built with Beijing’s aid Schools started smoothly and clinics opened, a number of supporting facilities such as the Xiongan Business Service Center were put into operation one after another, and central enterprises set up more than 200 institutions of various types in the new area…
Strictly control the increase and decentralize the existing stock, and work in both directions to reorganize internal functions and decentralize and transfer externally. As time goes by, the chess game for the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei is playing out.
Leaved Beijing and worked as a server for 21 yearsZhang Xinhuan, who is engaged in wholesale clothing business, settled in Yunshang Town, Yongqing County, Hebei Province. Of the more than 3,600 merchants gathered here, 80% are from Beijing. “The environment is good, the store is big, the cost is low, and the business is good.” Zhang Xinhuan made up his mind, “Just stay here and don’t go anywhere.”
Breakthrough
It is new every day, new every day, and new every day
Cooperation will benefit both sides, but it is easier to know than to do.
Reduction and transformation, decentralization and inheritance, which point does not involve vested interests? From settling small accounts to settling big accounts, from looking at the present to thinking about the long term, how easy is it to change?
Since that symposium in 2014, “breaking down obstacles” has been a key word in General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important speeches. “It is necessary to break down administrative barriers and institutional barriers that restrict coordinated development, and build institutional guarantees to promote coordinated development and high-quality development.” This main line runs throughout.
To break down obstacles and achieve coordinated development, what we seek is the greatest common denominator. We must focus on the long term and coordinate short-term and long-term interests.
“It is necessary to have both incentive and preferential policies to attract and some restrictive measures to force. It is necessary to start from the two aspects of ‘introducing’ and ‘forcing’, and come up with a number of visible, tangible, and There are practical policies, especially the need to study and establish an endogenous dynamic mechanism that takes into account the interests of all parties, so that Beijing is willing to let it go, and Hebei, Tianjin and other places are also willing to take it.” General Secretary Xi Jinping is thoughtful.
We need power from reform and vitality from innovation.
Over the past decade, Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei have focused on improving the level of industrial synergy, giving full play to the radiating and driving role of Beijing’s innovative resources, making regional facilities closer and accelerating the growth of new productivity.
Collaborative innovation drives continued efforts. Data show that the R&D investment intensity of the three places in 2022 will be 4.28%, an increase of 0.85 percentage points from 2013, and continues to be higher than that of the country. In 2022, regional labor productivity will reach 185,000 yuan/person, basically doubling that in 2013.
Tongzhou in Beijing, Wuqing in Tianjin, and Langfang in Hebei are referred to as “Tongwu Lang”. The three places signed a talent cooperation framework agreement and launched more than 10 pilot policies, including talent green cards and encouraging two-way part-time jobs for scientific researchers between enterprises and institutions.
In Xiongan New District, next to Baiyangdian, a 150-meter-high “golden reed” grows, which will be the future headquarters building of China’s Sinochem Group. Zhang Jishuo, the person in charge of the project construction, said: “Before the project started, the ‘one meeting and three letters’ approval model was adopted, and the number of approval items was reduced from dozens to four, saving three months.”
“Enterprises are in Hebei, and supervision belongs to Beijing.” The cross-regional supervision mechanism has made Cangzhou City, Hebei Province an important destination for the relocation of Beijing’s biopharmaceutical industry. Beijing Pei Yi couldn’t help but sigh, stretched out his hand and gently hugged her into his arms. ·Cangzhou Bohai New District Biopharmaceutical Industrial Park has established more than 60 pharmaceutical companies, including 37 pharmaceutical companies from Beijing.
Beijing-Tianjin ZhongguancunThe Science and Technology City was originally a “village” but now has more than 1,400 registered companies. “Through innovative institutional structures, Beijing and Tianjin have established a mutually beneficial and win-win benefit-sharing mechanism.” Wang Hao, deputy mayor of Baodi District and secretary of the Party Working Committee of Beijing-Tianjin Zhongguancun Science and Technology City, said that after Beijing companies settled in, “Beijing and Tianjin have If there is profit, we can continue to provide supporting services to chain owners in Beijing.”
Only when Beijing has the push and Tianjin and Hebei has the pull can a resultant force for coordinated development be formed.
“What are you surprised about? What are you suspicious of?”
In the past ten years, the consciousness, initiative and creativity of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei in promoting coordinated development have been significantly enhanced, and the institutional system has gradually been improved: the implementation of the “1+5” cooperation framework agreement on the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei business environment, the first batch 165 qualifications are mutually recognized, 203 government service items in the free trade pilot zone are “colleagues with the same standards”, 21 measures for regional integration construction are accelerated, and 520 key enterprises in the industrial chain and supply chain have achieved mutual recognition by the customs of the three places…
The process of market integration in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei is accelerating, and various factors are flowing freely and optimally allocated in the region in accordance with market rules.
The turnover of technology contracts flowing from Beijing to Tianjin and Hebei has increased from 7.12 billion yuan in 2013 to 74.87 billion yuan in 2023, with an average annual growth rate of 26.5%. Zhongguancun enterprises have established more than 10,000 branches in Tianjin and Hebei, and the collaborative model of “Beijing R&D, Tianjin and Hebei Manufacturing” has accelerated. Beijing companies invested 49,000 times in companies in Tianjin and Hebei, with a total investment of 2.3 trillion yuan. The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei life and health industry cluster and the electric power equipment industry cluster have been approved as national key industrial clusters, accounting for more than 20% of the country’s output value.
In a small calculation, the development of the three places has its own advantages and gains.
Beijing is developing with reduced volume while improving quality. Tianjin is showing a new look in singing the “Tale of Two Cities” between Beijing and Tianjin. Hebei is accelerating its own development by connecting and serving Beijing and Tianjin. In 2023, the total economic output of Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei will be 4,376.07 billion yuan, 1,673.73 billion yuan, and 4,394.41 billion yuan respectively, which will increase by 5.2%, 4.3%, and 5.5% respectively over the previous year at constant prices.
As General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out, “The integration of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei complements each other. In the end, no one suffers and everyone gets the good things they want.”
Integration
Take advantage of everyone’s wisdom and use everyone’s strength
Jointly host an industrial collaboration conference, jointly publish a cross-regional industrial chain map, and jointly carry out investment promotion at home and abroad… At the end of the year and the beginning of the year, Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei frequently make moves.
After ten years of hard work, it has become a consensus to develop together and integrate with each other. Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei are more closely connected, more efficient in linkage, and more powerful in promotion.
Love is connected, people are close to each other, and they cannot do without the same road.
In the past, the level of interconnection between Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei was low, and there were many “dead roads” at the provincial junctions, and peopleInconvenient to get around. The two adjacent areas are close in a straight line, but the walk is winding and time-consuming.
Collaborative development, transportation first.
Beijing Rail Transit Line 22 (Pinggu Line) was originally planned to be only a line within Beijing. In the context of the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, Beijing has adjusted its line planning and set up five stations extending to Sanhe City, Hebei Province. After it is completed and put into operation, it will only take 55 minutes at the fastest from Pinggu Station to Dongdaqiao Station in urban Beijing. For hundreds of thousands of Yanjiao residents working in Beijing, their daily commuting problems will be greatly alleviated.
On the Chaobai River, construction of a 1.63-kilometer-long “Changtong Bridge” is being stepped up. On this side of the bridge is Tongzhou District, Beijing; on the other side of the bridge is Dachang Hui Autonomous County, Hebei Province. After the bridge is completed and opened to traffic, the travel time from Dachang County to the core area of Beijing’s sub-center will be shortened by nearly half an hour.
In the past ten years, the formation of the “Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei on Orbit” has accelerated, the highway network has become denser and denser, and the “dead-end roads” and “bottleneck roads” across provincial boundaries have been gradually opened and widened. The operational mileage of railways and highways in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region has reached 11,000 kilometers. Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei is accessible in half an hour, and the major cities in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region have basically formed a traffic circle of 1 to 1.5 hours.
Do business, seek development, and focus on the game of chess in Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei.
Beijing regards supporting the construction of the Xiongan New Area as its own business and insists on actively supporting whatever the Xiongan New Area needs to help improve its comprehensive carrying capacity. Fully invested in the construction of 3 schools and 1 general hospital in Xiongan New Area in a “turnkey” manner. After completion, Beihai Kindergarten, Shijia Primary School, Beijing No. 4 Middle School, and Xuanwu Hospital will provide school and medical support; more than 40 schools, 5 The medical and health institutions will connect and support relevant schools and medical and health institutions in Xiongan New Area.
Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei jointly completed the mapping of 6 industrial chains including hydrogen energy, biomedicine, and high-end industrial machinery, sorting out 229 technology “stuck points” and 174 industrial chain “blocking points”, and provided them at home and abroad The “compass” and “navigation map” for investing in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. The “Beijing-Tianjin Industrial Handshake Link Forum” will be held on a regular basis. In 2023, a total of 44 cooperation projects will be signed and implemented, with an intended investment of 27.4 billion yuan. A series of industry docking activities such as the first Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Industrial Chain Supply Chain Conference were successfully held.
“Without building regional industrial competitiveness, we cannot achieve better development.” Bai Xiangdong, deputy director of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Joint Development Joint Office, increasingly feels that from working on their own to normalized collaborative docking, “Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei The three places tell mom and dad about the market who is the lucky guy.” . ?”The understanding of the rules is getting deeper and deeper, and the degree of integration is getting higher and higher.”
Beijing joined hands with Zhangjiakou to successfully host the Winter Olympics. A collaborative development office was set up in “Tongwu Corridor”. The executive committee of the integrated high-quality development demonstration zone between Tongzhou District and Beisan County was put into operation. The airport economic zone of Beijing Daxing International Airport was realized. “Sit down.” Lan Mu said to him expressionlessly after sitting down.Then I didn’t even bother to say nonsense to him, and asked him bluntly: “What is the purpose of your coming here today? Planning and industrial planning, jointly completing the country’s only cross-provincial administrative division comprehensive bonded zone closing and acceptance…Three places policy Release, industrial interaction, and flow of economic factors have entered the fast lane of integration.
From “compatibility” to “integration”, a magnificent reform, people are the key. Today, party and government delegations from Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei have regular exchanges of visits, signed three rounds of strategic cooperation agreements, established a consultation mechanism for the main leaders of the party and government in the three places, and the people’s congresses and political consultative conferences of the three places have strengthened collaborative legislation and cross-regional consultation.
At No. 55 Yunhe East Street, Tongzhou District, Beijing, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Coordinated Development Joint Office is busy and orderly. This newly established agency last year is led by Beijing City and composed of capable personnel from the three regions. It has established a working system with “coordinated coordination of important matters, supervision of tasks, and dedicated teams for implementation.” “The establishment of the joint office is a concrete measure for the three places to implement the spirit of the general secretary’s speech.” Yang Xiuling, director of the Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission and director of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Coordinated Development Joint Office, said that this is not only a change in the work location, but also a change in the working mechanism With the improvement and upgrade of “from the original collaboration to joint integration, the connection between the three places will be closer and the cooperation will be smoother.”
In January this year, the second batch of centralized relocation of Beijing municipal agencies was successfully concluded, with more than 10,000 cadres and workers from 35 departments moving into the Beijing Sub-Center. “The development pattern of ‘sub-centers, auxiliaries, and co-prosperities’ between the city’s sub-centers and the main urban area is taking shape in an orderly manner, and the carrying capacity of non-capital functions continues to strengthen.” Zhou Hao, a member of the Party Leadership Group of the Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission, lamented.
“Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei is like the petals on a flower. The petals are different, but they have the same heart.” From cities to villages, the concept of coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei is deeply rooted in the land of Beijing.

Governing a country is a matter of course, and the interests of the people are the basis
The word “people” is of great importance.
“Promoting the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei will ultimately be reflected in improving people’s well-being and promoting common prosperity.” General Secretary Xi Jinping has always taken the people’s sense of gain at heart.
There was once a large gap in the level of public services in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. In particular, education and medical care are related to the vital interests of the people and are also hot and difficult issues.
There are more than 500 basic education exchange projects between Beijing and Tianjin and Hebei, and more than 1,000 key principals and teachers from primary and secondary schools in Hebei have gone to Beijing to study on a temporary basis. Beijing and Hebei are exploring the “3+2” model of training in Hebei for secondary vocational education and training in Beijing for higher vocational education. Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei have established 15 cross-regional characteristic vocational education groups (alliances) and 22 university development alliances.
The depth and breadth of medical resource sharing is unprecedented.
Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei have completely canceled the registration for medical treatment in other places. 50 clinical test results have been mutually recognized in 685 medical institutions in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. More than 5,600 designated medical institutions in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei have implemented mutual recognition.Nowadays, hospitalization expenses for medical treatment in different places across provinces are directly settled, more than 9,300 designated medical institutions realize direct settlement of outpatient expenses, and medical treatment in different places within the region has been “integrated into the same city”.
The Yanda Golden Age Health Care Center is located in Yanjiao Town, Sanhe City. Rao Xiaocun, an 83-year-old Beijing citizen, was painting ink after dinner. “When I first came here, I had to rest three or four times when I went out for a walk. The care here is good, and my body is much stronger than before. There is a hospital next to it. I can use Beijing’s medical insurance and have Beijing experts for consultation. It’s very convenient.” In recent years. In recent years, driven by the integrated development policy with the Beijing Sub-center, Sanhe City’s health care industry has flourished, creating a “combination of medical care and health care” elderly care service system.
A picture reflects the footprints of coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
Just after New Year’s Day in 2024, the Beijing Municipal Ecological Environment Bureau announced a calendar chart of Beijing’s PM2.5 levels, which spans from 2013 to the present. On the graph, in chronological order, the red color representing severe pollution and heavy pollution is getting less and less, and the green color is getting more and more. To break it down, Beijing will have 90% of the days with good air quality in 2023, and the longest number of consecutive days with good air quality will be 192 days.
When it comes to atmospheric management, it is difficult for Beijing to be alone. Looking back on 2014, among the 10 cities with the worst air quality in China, 8 were in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.
When the people call for it, the government responds. When the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei became a national strategy, ecology was regarded as one of the three key areas for breakthroughs in the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei.
Joint prevention, joint control, and joint action. In January 2020, the third session of the 15th Beijing Municipal People’s Congress reviewed and approved the “Beijing Regulations on the Prevention and Control of Pollution Emissions from Motor Vehicles and Non-road Mobile Machinery”; Hebei and Tianjin also successively passed local regulations, and in May 2020 It will be implemented simultaneously from January 1st. “One ruler measures to the end” to truly realize blue skies in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.
The mountains are green, the water is green, and the sky is blue. Wu Yue, deputy director of the Hebei Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment, said that in 2023, the average concentrations of PM2.5 in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei will be 32, 41, and 38.6 micrograms/cubic meter respectively, a decrease of 62.7%, 50.6%, and 57.6% respectively compared with 2014. ; The surface water section in the national examination has been completely eliminated as inferior to Category V, and the five main rivers including the Yongding River have all reappeared as “flowing rivers” and run through the sea.
A good ecological environment is the most universal welfare for people. Changes are around us: Beijing and Hebei signed a horizontal ecological protection compensation agreement for the water source conservation area in the upper reaches of Miyun Reservoir and Guanting Reservoir, and jointly promoted the water source protection of Miyun Reservoir and the ecological restoration of Guanting Reservoir; the water quality of Baiyangdian Lake was improved from worse than Category V to maintained at Category III standards. Rare birds such as blue-headed pochards began to breed and raise their chicks here; Beijing supported the afforestation of 1 million acres in Zhangjiakou and Bashang areas of Chengde in Hebei Province, and the second phase of sandstorm source control in Beijing and Tianjin completed the afforestation of more than 2 million acres…
The branches and leaves are related to feelings, and people’s livelihood is lingering in our hearts. From 2015, mobile phone extensions will be cancelled.From travel charges to building a cross-regional medical consortium, to holding a social security card to take buses, subways, and visit scenic spots, Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei adhere to the people-centered approach and deeply promote the co-construction and sharing of basic public services. The foundation of people’s livelihood in this land is getting brighter and brighter.
The Yanshan Mountains are vast, the Taihang Mountains are majestic, and the Haihe River is full of water.
After ten years of hard work, from creating a new economic growth pole and forming a new economic development model, to playing an important role in leading high-quality development, and then striving to make Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei a pioneer area for Chinese-style modernization, Demonstration area, the Party Central Committee has continuously assigned important missions and responsibilities to Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
Following the spirit of spring, a Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region with more coordinated development, stronger impetus, and more cohesive people is growing.
