Study on the Path of Integration of Southeast Gui Townships into Guangdong's Great Bay Area

Abstract

As one of the key strategies for China to lead the economic development in the new era, since the in-depth implementation of the reform and opening up for forty years, the Guangdong Greater Bay Area, with its diversified industrial pattern, has vigorously promoted the rapid growth of China's economy and played an indispensable role in the global competition. Its unique geographical location and all-round policy support, as well as its huge economic hinterland, have laid a solid foundation for the synergistic development of industries in the region. Of particular concern is that the town cluster of southeast Gui, consisting of Wuzhou, Yulin and Guigang, is seizing the favorable opportunity of the Pearl River-West River Economic Belt to fully tap its own regional potential, actively expand the scope of external cooperation and exchange, take the initiative to initiate beneficial docking with many developed regions such as Guangdong, do a good job of undertaking industrial relocation, and rely on the Xijiang Golden Waterway to promote the development of advantageous industries and build up a A town system with clear division of labor and mutual cooperation. This innovative theory of synergistic regional economic development provides valuable ideas for the current stage of economic transformation and upgrading in China. It is crucial for the linkage development between the two regions. Therefore, the establishment of Guangdong's Greater Bay Area opens up a broader space for the development of Guandong's southeastern town clusters, while the latter likewise needs to be actively involved in the construction of the Greater Bay Area, to meet the challenges and grasp the opportunities, and to realize the mutual benefits and win-win situation between the regions.This paper takes the main line of researching the integration of Gui-Southeast Townships into the construction of Guangdong Great Bay Area as the main line, and summarizes the content of the article research by finding relevant information, collecting literature monographs, etc. The content of the whole article is divided into five major parts for comprehensive elaboration, firstly, based on the research experience of relevant scholars, combining theoretical foundations and relevant concepts, and then, from the status quo and problems of the integration of Gui-Southeast Townships into the Guangdong Great Bay Area, the analysis of the degree of industrial synergies between the Gui-Southeast Analysis of the degree of industrial synergy between the urban agglomeration and the Guangdong region, and finally propose important paths and countermeasures for integration based on the results of the analysis.The results of the study found that:First, the degree of industrial association between different counties and cities and the Guangdong Greater Bay Area is affected by the structure of their respective three industries. Second, the development indexes of Guigang, Yulin and the whole Guangdong region show an upward trend, while Wuzhou's development index is lower in comparison, and it is found that the development indexes of Gui-Southeast can be narrowed through the vigorous development of Gui-Southeast. Thirdly, the synergies between the Gui-Southeast urban agglomeration and the Guangdong Bay Area are at a low level, and there is a serious lack of synergy for some time. Therefore, in order to integrate into the Greater Bay Area of Guangdong, it is necessary to study and learn from the advanced development experiences at home and abroad, optimize the industrial structure, improve the system of accepting industrial transfer, improve the transportation facilities, accelerate the promotion of connectivity to improve the quality and increase the quantity, deepen the reform of the system and at the same time clarify the positioning to undertake the major industrial projects that are difficult to be arranged in the layout of the Greater Bay Area of Guangdong, with the aim of realizing a better integration of the South-East Gui Townships into the construction of the Greater Bay Area, and to create a better environment for resource sharing and cooperation between the two regions. Create a situation of resource sharing and win-win cooperation between the two places.
