Nanyang and Xiangyang, one in Henan province and the other in Hubei province, are both famous cultural cities with thousands of years of history, and both are populous cities in the central region, and the two places have treated each other as competitors. For a long time in the past, Nanyang's development was to exceed Xiangyang's, but starting about a decade ago, Xiangyang began to surpass Nanyang. But in the long run, Nanyang has more potential than Xiangyang for several reasons:

Nanyang's total population is ranked among the top 10 in the country,**** with 12 million people, and Xiangyang's total population is more than 6 million, making Nanyang almost twice as large as Xiangyang. It is important to know that one of the most important factors in determining the longevity of economic development is people, whether it is from the labor force, high-tech talent or purchasing power, each of which is closely related to the population, and the potential of a large population base is large, which is indisputable.

Nanyang's area is 26,500 square kilometers, Xiangyang's area is 19,700 square kilometers, Nanyang jurisdiction over the area of 6,800 square kilometers of Xiangyang, which is a hard target, resulting in industrial and agricultural land, tourism and other related land resources, Xiangyang's potential to be slightly inferior.

Nanyang is the head of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, the water source of a canal of clear water to the capital, the state's protection of the water source and policy support is self-evident, the completion of the Zhongguancun Venture Base is a representative of one of the belief that the policy tilt in the future in the long run will be the main theme of Nanyang's development, and more high-precision enterprises will accelerate the pace of the settlement of the Nanyang, Xiangyang, on the contrary, the lack of this aspect is serious. The company's business is seriously lacking in this area.

In recent years, Xiangyang, with the Shiyan FAW, vigorously develop the automobile industry, the speed of development of the industry for all to see, and in the GDP accounted for more and more, the pull of the economy significantly accelerated, on the contrary, Nanyang's industry has always been the short board, but also from the other side to see Nanyang's industry there is still a lot of potential to be dug, as long as to increase the pace of attracting investment, I believe that Nanyang will catch up with. The Have to mention the pastoral, horqin beef cattle and other livestock giants in recent years, especially the pastoral, let a person impressed. Nanyang is an agricultural city, very suitable for the development of animal husbandry, can be said to have unlimited potential.

Nanyang city and Xiangyang city, generations of neighbors, cultural origins, mode of production, habits, this for the same, should learn from each other, help each other; Zhu Geliang is Nanyang's, is also Xiangyang's, Zhu Geliang is Nanyang and Xiangyang linked to the same, the same is a family, why make Zhu Geliang again difficult, in recent years, since even a few years, the two cities are increasing the contact of the strength of cooperation and investment, is the two cities of the people's Where hope lies, *** seek development, *** with the rich, is the expectation of the people of the two cities!
