On March 31, 2022, the unveiling ceremony for the Southeast Henan High-Tech Industrial Development Zone (hereinafter referred to as the Southeast Henan High-Tech Zone) was held via video conference in Zhengzhou. Lou Yangsheng, Secretary of the Henan Provincial Party Committee, unveiled the plaque and delivered a speech [1]. The Southeast Henan High-Tech Zone will integrate and optimize relevant industrial and technological innovation resources in Huangchuan County, Guangshan County, and Xinxian County. [2] The initial scope of the development zone covers parts of Huangchuan, Guangshan, and Xinxian counties (using an exclave economic model). The establishment of the Southeast Henan High-Tech Industrial Development Zone by the Henan Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government is a major decision by the Provincial Party Committee to implement General Secretary Xi Jinping’s earnest instructions regarding the “Two Better” objectives, and a major strategic initiative to optimize the spatial layout of productive forces and promote the revitalization and development of revolutionary base areas. [5] The positioning of the Southeast Henan High-Tech Industrial Development Zone is to serve as a “bridgehead” connecting the Yangtze River Delta and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, a growth pole leading Xinyang’s high-quality development, and a testing ground for reform of development zones in Henan Province. It aims to become a high-level high-tech zone with strong competitiveness, innovative leadership, and radiating influence.
