The recent adjustment of administrative divisions is to obey and serve the overall requirements of regional economic development strategy, grasp the center, expand the space, create a good institutional environment and regional environment for regional economic development, and stimulate new vitality of regional economic development. Specifically, we should focus on adjusting the administrative divisions of Hefei, Bengbu, Wuhu and Huangshan according to the imbalance and gradient of regional economic development and the urban location and economic differences in Anhui Province:
1. Adjust the administrative divisions of Bengbu to create a new bright spot of the regional economic center in northern Anhui. Six cities in northern Anhui are the largest population gathering places in Anhui, accounting for about 43% of the province's total population. However, in recent years, the rise of Hefei and the development of Wanjiang have become the main theme of Anhui's economic development, while northern Anhui has been separated from the main battlefield of development, making its share in the province's economy not high. 200 1, the GDP of the six cities accounts for less than 30% of the province. One of the important reasons for the slow economic development in northern Anhui is the lack of central cities. In other words, the revitalization of northern Anhui needs the drive of the central city.
By comprehensive comparison, Bengbu is the only city in northern Anhui that can undertake the central function. Bengbu is adjacent to Huaihe River, Beijing-Shanghai and Huainan railways, Ningxi railway under construction, Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway, and Xu He, Fu Jie and expressway meet here. It is the largest transportation hub in northern Anhui at present, and also the commercial center in northern Anhui in modern history. In recent years, Bengbu's economic development has lagged behind and its influence has weakened, but its location advantage and comprehensive economic strength are still irreplaceable by other cities in northern Anhui.
Accelerating the development of Bengbu central city has become the consensus of relevant parties. In the Opinions on Accelerating the Economic Development in Northern Anhui, the provincial party committee and government also clearly put forward that Bengbu should be built into a central city of processing, commerce and technology in northern Anhui. At present, the economic development of Bengbu has spread outward from the urban area, and the development of new urban areas and high-tech zones has extended to Fengyang County in the east and Huaiyuan County in the west respectively. However, the urban structure divided by suburbs not only hinders the urban development, but also hinders the overall spatial development of Bengbu. From the perspective of urban areas, Bengbu is one of the few traditional urban administrative divisions in China, with the so-called "concentric circle" structure of "protein" and "egg yolk". At present, the total population of the three central urban areas is 772,000, but the land area is only 7 1.9 square kilometers. Judging from the overall spatial development of Bengbu, the north bank of Huaihe River is a sandy landform impacted by rivers, which is not suitable for large-scale urban infrastructure construction. Therefore, Bengbu should expand eastward and westward, and Fengyang County and Huaiyuan County should be included in the overall development plan. In fact, Fengyang County and Bengbu have been integrated economically, socially and culturally. But Fengyang is under the jurisdiction of Chuzhou. Huaiyuan County is under the jurisdiction of Bengbu, but as an independent administrative system, its development planning is difficult to coordinate with the whole city.
Therefore, adjust the administrative division of Bengbu City, expand the urban area outward on the basis of realizing the integration of suburbs, put Fengyang County directly under the jurisdiction of Bengbu City, and put the adjacent part of Fengyang County and Huaiyuan County directly into the municipal jurisdiction, so as to make Bengbu regional economy bigger and stronger.
2. Rebuild the new Hefei and accelerate the construction of a modern metropolis. As the capital of Anhui, Hefei shoulders the dual functions of self-development and promoting the development of the whole province. At present, Hefei has become the city with the strongest comprehensive strength and competitiveness in the province. However, Hefei's economic development is still in an underdeveloped stage, and there is still a big gap with the requirements of building a modern metropolis. In 200 1 year, Hefei's GDP ranks only 18 among the 27 provincial capital cities in China. More importantly, the advantages of Hefei's economic development are not obvious in terms of external transportation links, location, attracting foreign investment, or comprehensive economic competitiveness with science and technology as the main body. In order to embody the connotation of a modern metropolis and speed up the construction of Hefei, we must think big and spend much, broaden our development horizons, seek development space and recreate a new Hefei. On the one hand, it is necessary to draw the lake into the city and create the location advantage of Hefei. In other words, part of the jurisdiction of Chaohu City will be assigned to Hefei, and Hefei Port will be established to open up a new context for Hefei's external traffic. (Juchao District of Chaohu City and Lujiang County belong to Hefei City) This will also help Hefei to coordinate the economy along the lake and build Hefei into a modern lakeside garden city. On the other hand, we should give full play to the advantages of science and education and enhance the core competitiveness of Hefei. That is, taking the opportunity of establishing China Science City, some towns and villages located in the west and south of Hefei, which belong to Changfeng and Feixi, will be included in Hefei, and (Changfeng County will be included in Hefei's two districts) will rebuild Hefei's new urban area, promote the technical cooperation and grafting between China Science City and the two development zones, turn comparative advantage into competitive advantage, and truly turn Hefei into an important manufacturing and processing base at home and abroad, an important domestic high-tech research and industrialization base, and an educational industrialization base, adding new vitality to Hefei's economic development. Furthermore, Chaohu Lake, Sanhe Lake, Zipeng Mountain and Wanfo Lake can be further brought into Hefei's jurisdiction, echoing the Baogong Temple, xiaoyaojin and Li Hongzhang's former residence in the urban area, improving Hefei's tourism taste, driving the big economy with big tourism, and building Hefei into an important domestic tourism and cultural base. (Shucheng County of Lu 'an City belongs to Hefei)
3. Expand eastward and advance westward, and cultivate Wuhu into the "leader" of Wanjiang economy. Because of its unique location advantages, Wanjiang area has become the strongest location for Anhui economy to accept the economic radiation and industrial transfer of the Yangtze River Delta. According to the theory of regional economic development center, considering the geography, transportation, economic base and openness of Maanshan, Wuhu, Tongling, Chizhou and Anqing, Wuhu has the necessary conditions to become the "leader" of Wanjiang Economic Belt. The development of Wuhu itself in recent years has fully proved this point. According to data analysis, during the Ninth Five-Year Plan period, Wuhu's GDP grew at an average annual rate of 14%, and its fiscal revenue and investment in fixed assets grew at an average annual rate of 19%, which was among the best in the five cities and in the whole province. Wuhu's economic development has achieved a new leap, and the outward development, especially the endogenous expansion to the west, is very strong. As far as its location advantage is concerned, it should be mainly expanded to the west and supplemented by the expansion to the east. The eastward expansion is to divide a part of Wuhu County into municipal districts, so as to expand the development space and develop new urban areas. To the west is to learn from the successful experience of crossing the river in Chongqing, Wuhan, Nanjing and other places, make maximum use of the resources of the jiangbei coastline, build a logistics transit base, and develop industrial economy along the river such as large drainage and heavy chemical industry. With the approval of the provincial government, Wuhu Municipal Government planned an industrial park along the Yangtze River of about 40 square kilometers in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but because Wuwei County and the county on the north bank of the Yangtze River are under the jurisdiction of Chaohu Lake, the plan could not be implemented. From the reality, on the one hand, the development of the north bank of the Yangtze River needs a lot of investment, and Chaohu City has no financial strength; The shoreline resources of the Yangtze River do not belong to Chaohu Lake, and Chaohu City cannot take advantage of the location advantage of the north bank of the Yangtze River. On the other hand, Wuhu not only has the resources of the Yangtze River coastline, but also can make full use of the existing economic development platforms such as water supply and power supply in Wuhu. In addition, the construction of Wuhu Yangtze River Bridge and He Chao to Wuhu expressway has enabled it to have the capital, ability and conditions to develop the north bank of the Yangtze River. In the past two years, some super-large enterprises, such as PetroChina, have discussed with relevant parties the intention of investing and developing on the north bank of the Yangtze River, but due to the restrictions of administrative divisions, the plan has been delayed. Therefore, we should seize the historical opportunity of the eastern industry transferring to the central and western regions, adjust the administrative divisions as soon as possible, put Wuwei County and Hexian County under the jurisdiction of Wuhu City, and put some towns along the Yangtze River under the jurisdiction of Wuhu City, and jointly establish Wuhu North District with the Second Dam. The title of "Wuhu North" was recognized by all parties in the past. In this way, it is beneficial to the unified planning and management of Wuhu City and the development of Wanjiang River.
4, restore the original organizational system of Huangshan, and enable the word "emblem" and Huangshan two certificates. Southern Anhui is a gathering place of humanistic tourism resources in Anhui Province. There are not only natural scenic tourist resources such as Huangshan, Yun Qi, Taiping Lake and Jiuhua Mountain, but also two nature reserves, Guniujiang and Qingliangfeng, as well as profound Hui cultural resources such as Jingde, Jixi, Shexian, Tunxi and Xiuning. Rich tourism resources not only make southern Anhui a tourist and leisure base in China and an international scenic and cultural resort, but also an important pillar of southern Anhui's economy. The development of tourism resources should be the integration of landscape and culture. Only by realizing leisure tour, sightseeing tour and cultural tour can we enrich the tourism connotation, improve the tourism taste, and then form an industrial chain and promote the greater development of related industries. Previously, in order to play the Huangshan brand, Huizhou was changed to Huangshan City, Jingde and Jixi were placed under the jurisdiction of Xuancheng, and Xiaohuangshan City was changed to huangshan district, which not only led to the phenomenon of "coming early and coming back late" in Huangshan tourism, but also weakened the comprehensive effect of tourism, which led to neglect and obliteration of the emblem. Recently, in order to further revitalize and reconstruct the tourism industry in the Yangtze River Delta, the relevant state departments and relevant regions have begun to study how to make the Yangtze River Delta a world-class famous tourist destination, form a Yangtze River Delta tourism economic circle, and include Huangshan City in it, initially forming a "15+ 1" tourism city cooperation mechanism in the Yangtze River Delta, and proposing to make use of spatial integrity, cultural homology and resource complementarity to create a tourism "Golden Triangle". In order to meet the requirements of the situation, seize the development opportunity, tap the development potential, truly realize the integration of Huizhou culture and Huangshan Mountain, play two cards of "emblem" and "Huangshan Mountain", fundamentally improve the tourism taste and develop the tourism economy, it is necessary to readjust the current Huangshan City division, cancel the current Huangshan City organizational system, establish Huizhou City, and adjust the district and county jurisdiction accordingly.
In the construction of the above-mentioned "four centers", it is necessary to solve individual problems existing in the current administrative divisions. [size=6][color=Red] 1. Dangshan County and Xiaoxian County belong to Huaibei City [/color][/size]. Huaibei city was built earlier, and after years of development, the city has strong radiation ability. But there is only one Suixi county in Huaibei at present. Due to the limitation of geographical space, the development of Huaibei city is blocked in space. Placing Dangshan County and Xiaoxian County into Huaibei City not only conforms to the principle of economic geography and is beneficial to the development of Huaibei, but also helps Dangshan County and Xiaoxian County to better accept the economic radiation of Huaibei City and accelerate their own development. Second, the northern part of Shouxian County and Changfeng County will be placed under Huainan City to promote the industrial diversification of Huainan City. Huainan is a new energy city. Coal-fired power industry has always been the leading industry of economy. However, the non-renewable energy and low price have led to the development of Huainan's urban economy. In recent years, Huainan relies on Bagongshan tofu to build a stage for culture, sing opera for economy, shape the image of the city and promote the diversification of urban industries. Shouxian is only a few kilometers away from bagongshan district, Huainan, and Changfeng is only a dozen kilometers away from datong district, Huainan. After the northern part of Shouxian County and Changfeng County are merged into Huainan City, it will be beneficial to the unified planning of Huainan and the development of the famous historical mountain Bagong Mountain. It is also conducive to Huainan to play a bigger tourism brand, develop Gushou Prefecture, drive Huainan's new round of industrial restructuring with tourism, promote industrial diversification and promote regional economic development.
