    If faith had a color, it would surely be China Red! Among the myriad hues, red is perhaps the color that best represents China in the eyes of most people. From an investment promotion perspective, some regions are in full swing, glowing a deep crimson; others are thriving, shimmering like gold; while in still others, attracting investment is an uphill battle, yet the blue-ocean prospects are vast...So, for investment promoters, what colors should the map of China display based on investment heat? Red: Off the Charts “In the 1980s, look to Shenzhen; in the 1990s, look to Pudong.” Over the past 40-plus years of China’s rapid economic development, the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta have been widely recognized as the two most economically developed regions in the country...
    Xin'an County, Suichang County, Heping County, and Yunyang County—these places are rarely heard of. But they have all gained attention for the same reason: the race to attract talent, specifically master’s and doctoral graduates from top universities. It is clear that county-level cities’ demand for talent extends far beyond recent college graduates. In the past, master’s and doctoral graduates returning to these counties was seen as a step down; now, however, the influx of highly educated professionals into these areas has become a visible trend. Today, the central government’s policy of “county-level urbanization” also sends a significant signal regarding talent. Beyond the return of migrant workers, what is even more in short supply are highly educated professionals. From another perspective, county-level...
    In ancient times, those who mastered the Thirty-Six Stratagems were assured of victory on the battlefield. For business developers, studying and applying these strategies and tactics is the key to achieving exceptional results. Conversely, a single misstep can lead to total failure. So, how can one utilize the “Thirty-Six Stratagems” to ensure an unbeatable position? 01 Look to the Leader: The "leader" can be viewed as a flagship enterprise, and when attracting such companies, one must adopt a long-term perspective. Examples of flagship enterprises driving an entire industry are now commonplace. The more components involved and the longer the industrial chain, the more pronounced the driving force of the flagship enterprise becomes. Localities can leverage their own industrial foundations to focus on attracting enterprises that align with local industries...
    The strength of an industrial cluster is the core competitiveness of a region. Today, building robust industrial clusters has become a priority for local governments in their investment promotion efforts, and industrial chain-based investment promotion is a key strategy for achieving this goal. Unlike other investment promotion methods, industrial chain-based investment promotion does not rely on competing over policies or land; instead, it involves analysis and planning to attract leading enterprises, using the cluster’s industrial strengths to draw more related industries to the region. A series of innovative approaches—such as attracting leading enterprises, developing industrial roadmaps, identifying local strengths, and implementing a "chain leader" system—are all critical components of industrial chain-based investment promotion. However, there are some details that are easily overlooked, but...
    With a total distance of 42.195 kilometers, the marathon is essentially a “strategic race run on foot.” Throughout the race, participants must devise tactics, build endurance, and increase speed to ensure they can complete the entire course and emerge victorious.Many believe that investment promotion is a protracted marathon—a long-distance race that combines intelligence, endurance, and speed. Winning at the starting line isn’t the key; so how does one secure victory in this race? Intelligence: Formulating Tactics. The tactics used in a marathon are applicable to the overall strategy and planning for a city’s investment promotion efforts. Marathon tactics can be divided into 3...
    In the past couple of days, a policy “with county towns as key platforms” has suddenly emerged! This signals a new direction for the future of China’s more than 2,800 districts and counties. Is this a new trend? Yes and no. If one simply assumes that the state is transferring population and resources from first- and second-tier cities to county towns, that conclusion is certainly mistaken.Industry, population, and supporting infrastructure do not operate on the same level. Major cities define the “sky” of China’s development, while small villages occupy the better “ground.” County towns, however, serve as the bridge connecting “sky” and “ground.” In this context, cities...
    Past performance does not mean the future results. With the release of the national GDP for the first quarter, provinces and cities have issued their "quarterly reports" one after another. Under the double pressure of the foreign situation and the resurgence of the epidemic, it is unreasonable to look at the GDP alone. In the past, when we talk about GDP, we put more emphasis on "more" or "big". Then ...
    Speaking of bulk provinces, you only know Jiangsu? Jiangsu's bulk degree so that the provincial capital of Nanjing, are jokingly referred to as "Hui Jing" ...... In recent years, Anhui seems to be neighboring Jiangsu "contagious", urban development is also gradually towards the "Bulk" of the road. And Jiangsu is different, Anhui is mainly the south of Anhui, northern Anhui two schools of thought, Anhui ...
    With a thousand sails racing across the surging waves, now is the perfect time for a hundred vessels to vie for the lead. Today, competition for foreign investment in China has reached a fever pitch. As industrial structures and investment policies across regions have become increasingly similar, service quality has gradually emerged as one of the key weapons in inter-regional competition. Cultural differences and varying levels of economic development among regions have given rise to distinct styles among investment promotion personnel and leading officials in different areas.A variety of distinctive types of officials have gradually emerged. Upon closer examination, common traits can be identified among them, such as strategic thinking, pragmatism and efficiency, and relentless dedication... Shanghai’s “Unobtrusive” Officials: “Unobtrusive” is how the General Secretary described Shanghai’s officials. As the name implies, it refers to...
    Large cities have a natural advantage when it comes to attracting investment, but what can smaller cities rely on? While cities may appear to be clusters of skyscrapers, their essence lies in the concentration of industries, businesses, and talent; the alignment of supply and demand drives the flow of resources. This “flow” brings a city’s ability to attract talent to its peak. Third- and fourth-tier cities, however, lack high-tech industries and suffer from inadequate supply-demand infrastructure. They struggle to attract talent and often face poaching from larger cities. It goes without saying that attracting investment is no easy task. For smaller towns, they cannot afford to be “picky” about projects; they are simply grateful when any company comes to visit. As for industrial compatibility, it is rarely a consideration—or perhaps they simply lack the standing to even consider it...
    Recently, listening to investment colleagues to share investment experience, noted an interesting phenomenon: the choice of enterprises in the South, focusing on local policy; the choice of enterprises in the North, focusing on the local business environment. To summarize, it is eight words "South look at the policy, North look at the environment." Why is there such a difference in the phenomenon exists? North and South ...
    Investment promotion is in full swing, but it is by no means an aimless wandering from city to city, from industrial park to industrial park, all the way down to streets and townships. It is no exaggeration to say that investment promotion occupies a “first-class seat” and is attracting projects with the resolve of a warrior cutting off his own wrist. Some have said that having experienced the highs and lows of the real estate market, they feel quite moved. But I would like to add that I have also witnessed the vast army of investment promotion efforts moving with lightning speed... Objectively speaking, no two situations are exactly alike, but “existence implies validity.” When you grasp the core and key priorities of investment promotion, everything will suddenly become clear. Or, to put it another way, if you can step back and view investment promotion from a broader perspective, that is also...
