You know, in this strong province era, the first economic city in Jiangsu is not Nanjing, the provincial capital, but Suzhou, which is very close to Shanghai. In the early years, even the economy of Wuxi was higher than that of Nanjing. In recent years, Jiangsu has proposed to be the first provincial capital, and Nanjing is gradually getting up. As the strongest county (city) in China, Kunshan's GDP is higher than that of some prefecture-level cities and even some provincial capitals in the west. Of course, all this is due to the radiation in Shanghai.
In fact, all this is ultimately due to the tilt of national policies, and northern Jiangsu has undertaken a considerable part of the red line of cultivated land, which has enabled the economy of southern Jiangsu to develop. The economic level of southern Jiangsu is almost that of developed countries. There are 3 trillion cities in Jiangsu, namely Suzhou, Nanjing and Wuxi. Nantong's GDP is likely to exceed one trillion yuan this year. Except Nanjing, these cities are not affected by Shanghai radiation. Many people call Kunshan the back garden of Shanghai, while Nantong is called North Shanghai. The subways in Shanghai all go to Kunshan, and many people who work in Shanghai can choose to live in Kunshan.
It should be mentioned that a long time ago, Jiangsu and Anhui were once a province. South Zhili and jiangnan province. At that time, most of the country's tax revenue was in Zhili. Later, when the provinces were divided, the most essential part was distributed to Jiangsu. The word Jiangsu is taken from Jiangning and Suzhou, which also causes the present situation that Nanjing is surrounded by Anhui on three sides. As a result, many things can't be played outside Nanjing, Anhui. Nanjing metropolitan area includes Wuhu, Chuzhou and Maanshan in Anhui. Therefore, Nanjing is often called Hui Jing in the province. After all, the capitals of the three provinces are Hui Jing, so I won't say which three, I know what I know. As the eastern coastal province of China, Jiangsu has undoubtedly played its own advantages, and Su Daqiang deserves it. Even Guangdong, the largest economic province in China, is not as balanced as Jiangsu. In the early years, Shandong also had the opportunity to compete for the top two, and now it is good to keep the third place. Jiangsu can compete with Guangdong in the future, and the rise of Nanjing will make Jiangsu better and better. After all, the provincial capital model is the right way.
