What is the profound significance of defining urban positioning?

■ The functional orientation of Wang City is a compass to guide the development of the city, and it is an important question that must be answered in planning the long-term development of the city. Reasonable and correct urban function orientation is of great significance to the stable, rapid and sustainable development of a city. The orientation of a city is not simply the shaping of its name and image, but the role change and strategic adjustment of the city in the process of economic integration of the whole province, the whole country and the whole world. Urban positioning is not only tested by urban decision makers, urban operators and urban residents, but also tested by history. Therefore, urban positioning must follow the principles of objectivity, uniqueness, exclusiveness, orientation, reputation and recognition. Urban orientation includes the orientation of urban growth mode, development mode, humanities, industry, economic circle, market, construction, education, image and function. In these positioning, we must first make a correct positioning of urban functions. The functional orientation of the city should highlight the characteristic resources and identify its own comparative advantages. Comparative advantage is a comparative feature and a unique resource of the city. Characteristic things are the most difficult to imitate, characteristics can best reflect the level and advantages, and characteristics breed competitiveness. The key to improving a city's competitiveness lies in whether a city can transform its resource characteristics into economic characteristics, industrial characteristics, market characteristics and economic benefits as soon as possible, and finally into its competitive advantage. The scientific orientation of cities is the way to enhance competitiveness. The positioning of regional cities should strategically focus on future competition and global competition, shift the focus of urban economic development to industrial sectors with comparative advantages and competitive advantages, accelerate the use of advanced technologies to transform existing industrial sectors, and comprehensively improve the level of industrial technology and the overall quality of economic development. Judging from the positioning of Jiangxi cities in the report, firstly, the scientific establishment of urban economic circle is conducive to accelerating regional economic integration; Second, the scientific establishment of urban industrial clusters is conducive to achieving the goal of enhancing competitiveness; Third, the scientific establishment of urban leading industries is conducive to giving play to the advantages of urban core competitiveness; Fourth, scientifically establishing the economic function of a city is conducive to optimizing the allocation of resources in the city. For example, positioning Ganzhou as a "bridgehead" connecting the Pearl River Delta, the Yangtze River Delta and the Southeast Fujian Triangle, focusing on promoting Ganzhou's development and opening up, with the task of serving and promoting regional economic development, reflecting the promotion of Ganzhou's urban status, further clarifying the direction of division of labor between Ganzhou and other cities in Jiangxi in development planning and functions, which is conducive to Jiangxi's participation in economic globalization.
