Zall Medical returned to Tianmen, and Wuhan's booming industrial optoelectronics also let go. Under this circumstance, Wuhan's future GDP growth rate will inevitably slow down and may be surpassed by Changsha. Although Zhengzhou is not bad, it is also located in the north. It is difficult to face the troubles of water shortage and smog. Compared with the geographical environment of Changsha, it is still worse. At present, its GDP is slightly lower than that of Changsha. Judging from these conditions, Changsha, followed by Zhengzhou, Wuhan, Hefei, Nanchang and Taiyuan will be the best cities in Central China in the next decade.
Personally, I think it is Wuhan! Of course, it is undeniable that the economic situation in Wuhan this year is severe due to the epidemic, and GDP may fall out of the top ten in the country, but that is only temporary, just because of a sudden public health incident. After all, the foundation of Wuhan is there, and the economy will recover soon after the epidemic.
The cities in Central China that have the strength to compete with Wuhan are nothing more than Changsha and Zhengzhou. Although the development momentum of Hefei is fierce, there is a big gap, and it is basically unable to compete with Wuhan, Chengdu and Zhengzhou. Compared with Changsha and Zhengzhou, Wuhan has obvious advantages. For example, geographically, it is the thoroughfare of nine provinces and one of the three core cities in the Yangtze River basin. Politically, it is the only sub-provincial city and national central city in Central China. In terms of education, Wuhan has many double-class universities, and its scientific and educational strength is far stronger than that of Changsha and Zhengzhou. Economically, even if it is seriously affected by the epidemic, it is difficult for Changsha and Zhengzhou to surpass Wuhan in GDP this year. Therefore, personally, Wuhan is the most powerful, developed and comprehensive city in Central China.
