　　Editor’s Note: Under the background of weak world economic recovery, China’s economy has attracted worldwide attention for its remarkable development resilience and certainty. Xinhua News Agency will open a column entitled "Talking about New Economic Opportunities in China" from now on, inviting people from political circles, business circles and academic circles from all over the world to talk about new economic opportunities in China, discuss new economic vitality in China, and tell a new win-win story between China and foreign countries, so as to present the vigorous vitality and bright prospects of China’s economy from a global perspective and multiple perspectives.

　　Recently, the 2023 Annual Meeting of China Development Forum and the 2023 Annual Meeting of Boao Forum for Asia were held in Beijing and Hainan. At a time when the world economy is struggling to recover, the bright future of China’s economy has attracted much attention and expectation from all walks of life.

　　Many overseas guests and executives of multinational companies in China said that from a global perspective, China’s economic development this year has shown remarkable resilience and certainty, which has continuously injected valuable incremental and innovative vitality into the world economy and constantly created new opportunities for win-win cooperation between China and foreign countries.

　　Development prospect: effectively hedging global instability

　　Since the beginning of this year, international organizations have intensively raised China’s economic growth expectations, among which the International Monetary Fund (IMF) predicts that China’s economy will grow by 5.2% this year.

　　IMF Managing Director Georgieva, who attended the 2023 annual meeting of Boao Forum for Asia, said on the 29th that China’s economic development momentum is good, and its contribution rate to world economic growth is expected to exceed one third this year, which will provide important opportunities for other countries.

　　According to the latest research report of Citigroup, under the recent banking crisis in Europe and America, China will be more distinctive due to the accelerated economic growth, which may become a "major hedging factor" conducive to global economic growth and highlight its role as a "safe haven".

　　"Anchor of stability!" Kang Yong, chief economist of KPMG China, an internationally renowned accounting firm, described the role of China’s economy in global challenges. He told reporters that during the COVID-19 epidemic raging around the world, China withstood the pressure and effectively guaranteed the stability of the global industrial chain supply chain. This year, China’s strong economic growth will be very commendable and contribute greatly to the stable recovery of the world economy.

　　Gu Yushao, global senior vice president of Medtronic, a fortune 500 company headquartered in the United States, said that China has continuously improved its business environment in recent years, and enterprises are full of confidence in China’s economic development prospects. In the new year, the international community expects China to continue to play an important role in the global industrial chain supply chain and inject more vitality into economic globalization.

　　Market vitality: sharing new development opportunities with the world

　　In recent years, China has made great efforts to promote high-quality development, expand high-level opening to the outside world, and constantly release innovation vitality and opening dividends, which has been praised by overseas people, especially investors from all over the world.

　　"I am willing to continue to develop in China and make progress with China." Kang Linsong, Chairman of the Board of Directors of German Mercedes-Benz Group Co., Ltd., said in an exclusive interview with Xinhua News Agency that China has the largest automobile market in the world, and the pace of innovation is very fast. Consumers have shown high acceptance of technological innovation, which is one of the markets that truly test the frontier advantages of the automobile industry.

　　At present, Mercedes-Benz has set up R&D centers in Beijing and Shanghai, and has the most comprehensive R&D network in the innovation field outside the German headquarters in China. Kang Linsong believes that China’s opening-up strategy has released market vitality and helped market participants to flourish in China. R&D and innovation in China are very important for multinational enterprises.

　　According to Fabry, President of L ‘Oré al North Asia and CEO of China, China is not only an important engine for business growth, but also a driving force for open innovation.

　　Today, China has become one of L ‘Oré al’s most important markets in the world. Last year, the global cosmetics giant also announced the establishment of its first investment company in China, aiming to explore potential innovative enterprises with more China partners, foster forward-looking innovations and promote their commercialization.

　　Carl Fei, a strategy professor at BI Norwegian Business School, told reporters at the annual meeting of Boao Forum for Asia that China has a huge market and is open to new things, and the application of new technologies in China is very fast.

　　He believes that the achievements made by China in the field of science and technology in the past decade are amazing, showing the great potential of China. In recent years, China has continuously promoted the construction of a green "Belt and Road" and helped many developing countries in the fields of light rail transportation and green energy.

　　Win-win vision: a new chapter of multi-field collaborative development spectrum

　　This year marks the tenth anniversary of the "One Belt, One Road" initiative. In the past ten years, the international influence and coverage of China’s programs represented by the "Belt and Road Initiative" have been expanding, which has made the concept of coordinated development and win-win cooperation more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

　　Bei Zhemin, managing partner of Oliver Wyman Consulting, is the author of The New Silk Road: How the Arab World Rediscovers China. He told reporters at the 2023 annual meeting of Boao Forum for Asia on the 29th that many countries in the Middle East are willing to cooperate with China in the fields of digital economy and clean energy.

　　Bei Zhemin said that the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" has effectively promoted multilateral cooperation and promoted the coordinated development of Asia and regions along the route. Especially in Southeast Asia, the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" has brought a large number of industrial parks, ports and other facilities, which has strongly supported the development of global manufacturing.

　　Hu Yishan, chief consultant of Malaysian Pacific Studies Center who has participated in Boao Forum for Asia for many years, said that China attaches importance to multilateralism and fair economic cooperation, especially through the Belt and Road Initiative, which has established a solid foundation for cooperation and effectively promoted regional development. At the same time, the practice and experience of high-quality economic development in China are also worth learning from many countries.

　　Rehnert Bekotur Wolfe, President of Astana International Financial Center, said that China has made great achievements in economic development in the past few decades, showing the world a successful development story. Nowadays, under the guidance of high-quality "One Belt, One Road", new projects and new investments have landed in Kazakhstan and other countries, which continue to help improve local economic development and people’s living standards.

[Global Times reporter Fan Wei Hu Yuwei special correspondent Jiang Bohuai] Recently, many China students believed in the temptation of getting rich and were tricked into losing contact with Myanmar, which once again aroused strong concern among domestic people about the problem of illegal smuggling. Although these lost students were finally found after many efforts, the evil phenomenon of luring others to sneak out of the country and engage in illegal activities still exists, and some people still have illusions about the false "gold rush dream". Recently, Yang, a self-confessed person who was deceived and smuggled abroad for nearly two years, told the Global Times reporter about his tragic experience of inhuman torture abroad. Yang told the Global Times reporter that he hoped to use his personal experience to warn people who had the same fantasies as him not to make the same mistakes again.

"When he lifted his underwear on his back and thighs, the scars deeply embedded in his skin shocked all the policemen present," a policeman at the entry-exit frontier inspection station in Ruili, Yunnan, who participated in receiving Yang, told the Global Times reporter that at the moment when he saw Yang show his scars, he and his colleagues around him could not believe that such a tragic experience had happened to a young man who was only 18 years old.

And the beginning of all this, just because of an overseas "gold rush" message.

Yang comes from a county in Guizhou, but he always has a dream of getting rich one day at a young age. One day in December 2020, he accidentally received a short message from abroad, which said that a company in Myanmar was recruiting salesmen. "As long as you can surf the Internet, you can chat with customers on your mobile phone and promote your products, you can easily earn 100,000 yuan a month! Food, shelter, and round-trip air tickets … "Yang told the Global Times reporter that after several days of careful consideration, he finally failed to resist the temptation of high salary and planned to take a trip outside while he was young. So I immediately got in touch with the other party, agreed on a good time, and sneaked abroad under the arrangement of the other party.

"But it doesn’t feel right when you get there. It doesn’t look like a place where you can make money," Yang said. After arriving in Myanmar, he went with the car to a "company" hidden in an unknown mountain. Although the connector claimed to be a "company", it was just a few iron houses built sporadically on the grassy grass, and the environment was very poor.

Before his previous contact showed up, he was taken to a dark room and forced to hand over his mobile phone, bank card and ID card. "When I first arrived in Myanmar at night, the wind outside made a creaking noise on the iron sheet. In the dormitory of two dozen people, the double-decker iron bed would make a harsh noise as soon as it turned over, and a pale yellow light would light up in a small toilet. I couldn’t sleep over and over in bed, and my heart was not practical, "Yang recalled the night when he first arrived in Myanmar.

The next day, the "company" manager led Yang to the place of work. "I asked what it was, and the person who took the class told me that it was fraud through online social software. Before leaving the country, my contact always told me that I was engaged in’ promotion’ work after arriving in Myanmar, and did not disclose that I wanted to engage in fraud. "Yang said that he immediately refused, but five or six big men rushed out of the inner room and dragged him into the inner room, followed by a burst of punching and kicking. Subsequently, Yang was detained by gunmen and restricted his personal freedom until he signed a work contract with the company a week later, but he lost his freedom and dignity since then. Not only did I not get the so-called "high salary" at the beginning, but I was also intimidated and brainwashed to "go to work" to engage in telecom fraud.

Yang recalled that the "company" manager asked him to complete the work tasks of the day every day before he got off work. Every day, "colleagues" are dragged to the inner room and beaten up, or handcuffed and electrocuted, and shouts are often heard from the inner room. This happens to everyone who can’t finish the task, and he is not spared.

"One day, because I didn’t complete the task arranged by the company, I was asked by the manager of the’ company’ to take off my clothes in public, kneel on the ground, and then beat my back, ass and thighs with a whip, leaving a deep imprint. In a short time, my back was beaten raw and bloody, and I could smell the faint smell of blood in the surrounding air. Half an hour later, perhaps because I was tired from playing, or because I thought I was still of use value, the manager of the’ company’ stopped waving the whip in his hand and threatened me that if I didn’t get results within a week, I would dig out my kidney and sell it! Speaking of the scene that he had been abused, Yang was still a little afraid.

In order not to be whipped again by the manager, Yang worked overtime every day and exhausted his efforts to complete the tasks arranged by the "company". I thought this life would be easier. Unexpectedly, due to the serious lack of long-term overtime sleep, there was a mistake in the work, so the manager of the company slapped him continuously, which led to the rupture of the eardrum of the left ear. The manager also pointed a gun at Yang’s head to warn him not to do it again.

In the days of living an inhuman life, Yang also thought about running away, but because his ID card had been taken away and he was a stranger, he couldn’t escape at all. "The company is located in the barren hills and there are guards at the door, and they can’t let me escape. Someone tried to escape, but they were quickly recovered. What was waiting for them was a beating and then put in jail," Yang said.

Finally, because of his mediocre performance in "work", Yang was sold as "goods" by the "company" managers to a number of companies engaged in fraud. But each time, they suffered from worse environment and more brutal abuse.

Yang said that during his two years of smuggling abroad, he was whipped and injured in more than 20 places, especially leaving a 15cm-long scar on his calf. In the past two years, he wanted to leave countless times, but every time he mentioned this to the manager of the company, he was beaten up and couldn’t get out of bed for two or three days. Because of his physical pain, Yang dared not mention leaving again. Every day, he lived like a walking corpse.

The last "company" where Yang worked was located in a mountain near Muse City, Myanmar. After coming to this "company", Yang still engaged in the same "work" as the first two companies. The only difference was that the manager of this "company" told him that as long as he could pay 60,000 yuan, he could let him leave and regain his freedom. The hope of life prompted Yang to start making fraudulent phone calls day and night, hoping to earn enough money to be redeemed as soon as possible and escape from here as soon as possible.

In February of this year, Yang, who had experienced a nightmare life in Myanmar for nearly two years, finally saved enough money to be redeemed and regained his freedom. At the first time he left the company, Yang came to Ruili Port to surrender to the police at the border checkpoint on duty at the port.

"It feels really good to go home. I can accompany my parents and do what I want. Even if I take a class at home, it is better than there. In the future, I want to open my own grilled fish shop and stop thinking about the dream of getting rich overnight." The police at the entry-exit frontier inspection station in Ruili, Yunnan Province told the Global Times reporter that when he met Yang, he kept expressing his regret for easily listening to others smuggling out of the country, and at the same time he was glad that he had the opportunity to become the kind of person who escaped from inhuman torture. At present, Yang has been taken criminal compulsory measures in accordance with the law for allegedly crossing the country (border), and the case is being handled.

In recent years, some people have been tricked into engaging in online gambling and telecom fraud abroad by the high salary trap. These cross-border illegal activities have triggered a series of chain social problems in Southeast Asian countries such as Myanmar, the Philippines and Thailand, such as murder, kidnapping and human trafficking. In order to crack down on a series of criminal activities, on March 20th, a trilateral meeting on human trafficking jointly held by the Ministry of Public Security of the People’s Republic of China, the National Police of the Republic of Myanmar and the National Police Department of Thailand was held in Bangkok, Thailand, which will jointly crack down on transnational crimes such as human trafficking and telecom fraud.

According to the China Embassy in Myanmar, on March 23rd, Chen Hai, Ambassador of China to Myanmar, also held a meeting with Lieutenant General Soto, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior of Myanmar, on stepping up efforts to crack down on illegal cross-border criminal activities such as cyber fraud and gambling.

Ambassador Chen Hai pointed out that illegal cross-border criminal activities such as online fraud and gambling harm people’s interests and safety, undermine social stability and order, and affect China-Myanmar exchanges and cooperation. Recently, many incidents of Chinese personnel crossing the border to Myanmar have the background of illegal activities such as online fraud and gambling in Myanmar. It is hoped that Myanmar will attach great importance to the seriousness and harmfulness of related activities, further strengthen coordination and cooperation with China, intensify efforts to crack down on related illegal activities, and create a clear environment for China-Myanmar friendly cooperation.

Suotu said that Myanmar is well aware of the dangers of illegal activities such as online fraud and gambling, attaches great importance to the position that China has repeatedly stated, and has stepped up efforts to crack down. In view of the recent continuation of illegal activities in Myanmar, Myanmar is willing to join forces with China and other relevant neighboring countries to resolutely crack down and effectively curb them, and jointly safeguard the friendly cooperation between China and Myanmar and the safety of people’s lives and property.

The free release time of some toll stations in key sections of Hubei Province has been extended to 20 o’clock today.

In view of the recent traffic slowdown caused by bad weather in some sections of Guang Bei Expressway, Erguang Expressway and Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway in Hubei Province, Hubei has implemented free release for all vehicles from some toll stations in key sections. Due to the large traffic volume, the free release time has been extended to 20 o’clock today, which also facilitates the operation of machinery and equipment for shoveling ice and removing snow on the road, and ensures the smooth return of expressway arteries as soon as possible.

At present, the traffic control measures taken by highway toll stations in Hubei Province are mainly concentrated in Wuhan, Xiaogan, Jingzhou, Huanggang, Xianning and Suizhou.

Slow roads are mainly concentrated in 9 expressways, including Xuguang Expressway, Wushen Expressway, Hurong Expressway, Erguang Expressway, Fuyin Expressway, Daihuang Expressway, Hanxiao Expressway, Sihuan Expressway and Zaoshi Expressway.

In view of some slow-moving sections, especially the section from Xiantao to Jingzhou of the Shanghai-Chongqing Expressway, the Hubei transportation department timely coordinated the local transportation departments of Jingzhou, Xiantao and Qianjiang to deploy snow removal equipment to reinforce the expressway. Seize the gap between rain and snow, increase snow removal, remote diversion and transshipment, strengthen inter-provincial cooperation, and adopt remote control and early diversion. Using "all the way and many parties" to coordinate operations, we will organize the orderly passage and transshipment services of stranded vehicles by means of police cars clearing the way, formation running at low speed and traffic personnel escorting.

Previously reported: From 15: 00 to 18: 00 today, some toll stations in key sections of Hubei were released free of charge.

In view of the recent slow traffic caused by bad weather in some sections of the G45 Guang Bei Expressway, G55 Erguang Expressway and G4 Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway in Hubei Province, according to the spirit of the dispatching meeting of the Ministry of Transport, with the consent of the Hubei Provincial People’s Government, all vehicles driven out of some toll stations in key sections will be released free of charge from 15: 00 to 18: 00 on February 5, 2024, which will also facilitate the operation of machinery and equipment for shoveling ice and removing snow on the road, and ensure the smooth operation of expressway arteries as soon as possible.

At the same time, according to the principle of "nearby, parallel and high (ordinary highway with high technical level)", the Hubei Provincial Department of Transportation has formulated and issued a detailed vehicle diversion bypass scheme, and relevant local governments and transportation departments have set up vehicle diversion service stations to ensure all services for diverted vehicles in time.

As of 14: 00 on February 5th, there were still 100 expressway toll stations in the province taking traffic control measures due to road icing, mainly in Wuhan, Xiaogan, Jingzhou, Huanggang, Xianning and Suizhou.

[Editor’s note]What is the memory of reform and opening up in your heart?

On December 18, 1978, the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee was held in Beijing, and magnificent changes began.

In the past 45 years, from dressing and wearing hats, to eating, living and traveling, to culture and entertainment, little by little changes have quietly reshaped our lives.

CCTV launched a series of hand-painted pictures and texts "45 Time Segments Shuttle through 45 Years of Reform and Opening-up" to tell the story of China in time.

On April 5th, according to Hong Kong media reports, the famous singer Emil Wakin Chau recently returned to Hong Kong with a low profile. When I went out to eat, I was met by fans and took a group photo.

As a matter of fact, Emil Wakin Chau is a native of Hong Kong, but he went abroad for a long time and seldom spoke Cantonese in public, so many people didn’t know that he was a local.

At the beginning of this month, he returned to his hometown and appeared in a high-end Japanese restaurant for dinner. He blushed. He may have drunk a lot. In the face of the fans’ photo request, he readily agreed, only to see that he was cuter than scissors in front of the camera, smiling and in a good mood.

On the same day, Emil Wakin Chau dressed in a black suit jacket and a T-shirt of the same color, with jeans at the bottom, dressed casually. At the age of 62, he is well maintained, his hair is still dark and thick, and his figure is not fat. He looks much younger than his age.

According to fans, Emil Wakin Chau paid the bill himself. I have to say that he is so friendly to fans, no wonder he has been loved by everyone for so many years.

Emil Wakin Chau made her debut in the 1980s. With excellent singing skills and good creative strength, he quickly became popular, and successively sang many golden songs such as "Let me be happy and let me worry" 755-7900 "I will marry you tomorrow".

After he became popular, there must be many opposite sex around him, but he always loved his girlfriend Kang. Before he became famous, he knew Kang, and the other party appreciated his talent and spent the most difficult days with him, so he was always grateful.

A few years after her debut, she married Kang, and they got married and gave birth to a pair of mixed-race children. Nowadays, children have grown up.

Daughter inherited his musical talent and sang beautifully. It’s a pity that little sister has no interest in the entertainment circle. In recent years, she moved abroad, lived a very low-key life and rarely made public appearances.

His son Zhou Houan likes acting very much. After graduating from the drama department, he officially joined the film and television industry. However, his westernized appearance hindered his development. He hasn’t been to the theater for many years.

Even though the road ahead was boundless, he never thought of giving up and remained conscientious. In February, he participated in an opera and shared his photos on social networks. His unique style caused a heated discussion.

Zhou Houan looks very mature with long hair and beard. As a matter of fact, he is born after 90, and now he is only 32 years old.

Since he entered the business, he has often been laughed at and become too anxious. Many people advised him to shave off his beard, but he ignored it and still kept himself and had a lot of personality.

When his son was spit out, Emil Wakin Chau was not only angry, but also joked about it. He tried to shout "Dad" with his son’s photo, and the scene was very funny.

　　Guangming Daily reporter Party Wen Ting Wang Zhongyao

　　Cultural self-confidence is a more basic, deeper and more lasting force in the development of a country and a nation. Cultural innovation is also one of the most potential and far-reaching factors in today’s world urban competition.

　　Shenzhen Special Economic Zone is not only a window for the outside world to observe the reform and opening up, but also a window to show the charm of Chinese culture and the self-confidence of China culture. Observing the unique path of the SEZ since its establishment 39 years ago, it is not difficult to find that another main line of development parallel to the economic construction is the vigorous and prosperous cultural construction, which is constantly delivering energy to enhance the comprehensive strength and sustainable development capacity of the city.

　　At present, in the efforts to build a pioneering demonstration zone in Socialism with Chinese characteristics and seize the opportunity of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area’s construction, Shenzhen has undertaken the mission of being a practitioner and leader of advanced socialist culture, taking cultural innovation and development as the connection point to integrate various elements in the regional innovation strategy, stimulating the cultural creativity of the whole society, and making the urban space full of creative elements and the society full of humanistic care.

　　Refine the spirit of the city and unite people.

　　A person’s values determine a person’s spirit; The cultural connotation of a city determines the overall image of a city.

　　Shenzhen, a young city with a history of only 40 years, why is it now famous at home and abroad for its innovative, open and inclusive cultural atmosphere?

　　This is a highly conscious story of culture. Since its establishment, Shenzhen has deeply realized that economic construction and cultural construction are like "two wings of a bird and two wheels of a car", and has given strong support to cultural development from the heart.

　　And look at the "cultural context" of Shenzhen, which is full of "big hands":

　　In 1983, the city’s fiscal revenue was about 200 million yuan, one third of which was used to build "eight major cultural facilities";

　　In 2003, it was the first in the country to put forward "cultural city", and in 2012, it began to build a strong cultural city in an all-round way;

　　At the end of 2015, the "design drawing" and "construction table" were launched — — "Shenzhen Cultural Innovation and Development 2020 (Implementation Plan)", with clear objectives and 153 key tasks, is to lay a foundation for Shenzhen urban culture in the new period, fill shortcomings, strengths and weaknesses, and seek long-term results, with remarkable results.

　　"Building an urban spiritual system guided by socialist core values in the development process not only contains the spirit of a city, but also maintains a national gene, a pulse of the times and a feeling of home and country." Li Xiaogan, member of the Standing Committee of Shenzhen Municipal Committee and Minister of Propaganda Department, said that this not only forged the character of Shenzhen, but also engraved the era mark of China’s comprehensive implementation of reform and opening up.

　　From "time is money, efficiency is life" in the 1980s and 1990s to "reform and innovation are the root and soul of Shenzhen" and "encourage innovation and tolerate failure" when the traditional economic development model encounters a bottleneck in the early 21st century, Shenzhen has let the urban spirit get involved in urban development earlier and played a more conscious, active and significant role.

　　Today, the well-known phrase "You are from Shenzhen when you come" brings thousands of dream catchers from Qian Qian together here … … These spirits and concepts directed at people’s hearts make Shenzhen’s urban spirit system surpass the "hardware" and "form" of the city, with not only speed and height, but also temperature and tolerance.

　　"At present, in addition to the expression of the overall situation of the country and the consensus of the masses, developing urban academic culture is also a major way for Shenzhen to sublimate the spirit of the city." Wang Weili, vice president of Shenzhen Academy of Social Sciences, said. Since the implementation of "Shenzhen Cultural Innovation and Development 2020 (Implementation Plan)", the "Shenzhen Philosophy and Social Sciences Academic Master Plan" has been closely implemented, and the quality of social science publications "Shenzhen Social Sciences", "Shenzhen School Construction Series" and "Shenzhen Reform and Innovation Series" has been continuously improved; The influence of high-end academic platforms such as "Shenzhen Academic Annual Meeting" continued to expand, and the academic and cultural positions were further consolidated.

　　　Create brand culture activities and inject vitality.

　　Culture, always in the history of human city development, generate has shown incomparable strength.

　　London, although it lost its position as the world center after the industrial revolution in the 20th century, has led the transformation and upgrading of the city through cultural creativity and achieved great success, and is still one of the world cultural centers.

　　Tokyo, a popular culture with animation culture as its core, has formed a unique "Japanese-style" cultural brand in the world.

　　Nowadays, Shenzhen is also gradually forming a young, fashionable, energetic and vigorous brand culture system with a series of wonderful cultural activities with urban characteristics.

　　In April this year, at the Nanshan Pop Music Festival in 2019 with the theme of "Happy Pop, Happy Youth", "Night of Women’s Books" and "Night of Rock" once again set off a hurricane of pop music in this creative city. After several years of accumulation, this activity has not only become a platform for gathering cutting-edge works of pop music, but also greatly promoted the development of local pop music in Shenzhen.

　　The success of Nanshan Pop Music Festival is a node in the network of Shenzhen brand culture system. In 2017, Shenzhen took the lead in creating the first "cultural menu" in China to benchmark international first-class cities. After careful design and operation, a large number of cultural activities have become famous brands in less than three years.

　　"From New Year concerts, pop music festivals to theater brand activities, the Nanshan District in Shenzhen where I live is now ‘ There are performances every week, brands every month, and wonderful all year round ’ 。” Ms. Wang, a master student studying at the Shenzhen Graduate School of Tsinghua University, said. As a young woman who loves literature and art, she was once worried that the cultural life here was not as rich as that in Beijing before coming to Shenzhen, but after coming, she found that "whether it is the original Broadway musical, the Beijing people’s art drama, or some avant-garde art and small music scenes, you can see them in Shenzhen, and the government has given great support and subsidies, and the fares are very cheap".

　　Activities covering different fields and different groups of people not only provide rich cultural feasts for the citizens, but also shape the cultural charm of the city.

　　In the "Belt and Road" music season in March each year, nearly 50 music groups and 2,200 musicians from 64 countries and regions along the route have been invited to bring 55 wonderful performances, becoming the highest-end and most concerned "music feast" in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and even South China; This year’s Shenzhen Design Week and Global Design Awards attracted more than 1,000 designers from more than 20 countries and regions. Shenzhen Animation Festival, Reading Month, Creative December, etc., not only cultivate cultural atmosphere and establish cultural brands, but also play a leading role in cultivating people’s consumption of high-quality cultural products.

　　Enrich public cultural services, turn spring into rain.

　　This year’s Dragon Boat Festival, on the lawn of Four Seasons Park in Baoan District, Shenzhen, a microphone, a stool, several musical instruments, Chinese music flying, Rosa Waltz and other music sounded leisurely — — The "Our Festival" Dragon Boat Festival Cultural Concert presented a different artistic appreciation experience for the citizens present. This activity is one of the "delicacies" in the cultural service feast such as the "100 million" weekend concert in Baoan District, sending literature and art into the community and enterprises, and Baoan Cultural Teahouse.

　　Baoan District, located outside the original special zone and known as the "outside the customs" area, once had a weak cultural infrastructure. When Shenzhen formulated the "Shenzhen Cultural Innovation and Development 2020 (Implementation Plan)", it not only made a clear plan to realize the equalization of cultural facilities in the city and build a comprehensive cultural service center at the grassroots level, but also proposed to innovate cultural service methods and build a public cultural service system oriented to the spiritual and cultural needs of citizens.

　　"After studying and researching by all staff, we accurately meet the needs of citizens’ cultural activities and strive to send more and better cultural activities and literary works that citizens need to them." Liu Mingjun, director of the Public Cultural Service Center in Baoan District, Shenzhen, told the reporter that by guiding social forces to participate in public cultural services and turning "sending" culture into "planting" culture, Baoan District has gradually stepped out of the cultural management and service dilemma of "small horse-drawn carts".

　　"Including cultural volunteers, cultural hourly workers, cultural counselors, etc., our cultural volunteer service teams have served the masses for an average of 21 million times a year, which is an important driving force for the future development of Baoan’s cultural undertakings." Chen Weilin, deputy director of Shenzhen Baoan District Culture, Radio, Film, Tourism and Sports Bureau, said.

　　Using the most precious land to build a public cultural service system — — The library, the concert hall and the central book mall are all located in the center of Shenzhen, which is "an inch of land and gold". Nowadays, this model has blossomed everywhere in Shenzhen. The cultural complex "Red Cube" in the central area of Longgang in the east is very popular, the "cultural settlement" in the central area of Pingshan in the north has built a new context, and the public art cultural center in the central area of Baoan in the west is in full swing … …

　　At present, the "New Ten Cultural Facilities" such as the new Shenzhen Art Museum and the new Shenzhen Cultural Center have started construction, the basic cultural service network of "One District, One Book City, One Street, One Book Bar" has been basically completed, and the public cultural service system oriented to citizens’ spiritual and cultural needs has been initially established, which not only shows the eclectic attitude of the city’s cultural reproduction and the growth of foreign cultures, but also provides great cultural nourishment for Shenzhen to gather creative talents and radiate innovative ideas.

　　Lead the transformation of cultural industry and spare no effort.

　　"Laughing Two Sisters" is a popular animated IP on the vibrato platform recently. It interprets the joyful daily and current hot spots among family members of two children in a humorous, humorous and funny way, and has gained 4.7 million fans only three months after its launch. This is actually a new exploration made by OCT Cultural Tourism Technology Group Co., Ltd., which combines Internet media and innovative technology.

　　"At present, we are trying to create original IP on the front-end line and promote amplification. After the IP is mature, we will transplant it to the theme park for offline experience, and develop derivative formats and products to form a complete closed loop of the industrial chain." Zhao Bin, deputy general manager of OCT Cultural Tourism Technology Group Co., Ltd. said, "Disney is a DreamWorks in the animation era and Universal Studios is a DreamWorks in the movie era. Now we hope to empower the industry with cultural content and become a DreamWorks in the Internet era."

　　No matter cultural central enterprises like OCT, private enterprises like Tencent and Huaqiang Fangte, or countless cultural start-ups, they are sparing no effort to seize the opportunity of the times and move forward to a higher level: splendid china, the first theme park in China, digital cultural industries such as QQ music, Bears Come and Go, and most of the visual effects of this year’s hit movie The Wandering Earth were born here. The ecology of Shenzhen’s cultural and creative industries is growing sturdily. In 2018, the added value of Shenzhen’s cultural and creative industries was 262.177 billion yuan, accounting for more than 10% of GDP, and gradually formed a modern cultural industry system characterized by quality and connotation development.

　　Looking around the world, most other cities with advanced cultural development in the world have their own industrial clusters, such as Hollywood film industry cluster in Los Angeles and fashion industry cluster in Paris. In Shenzhen, the government has a clear understanding of the role of cultural and creative industries, which is regarded as a sustainable, healthy, stable and green industry and the main asset of economic regeneration in first-class cities.

　　At present, Shenzhen is learning from the development experience of advanced cultural cities in the world, based on its own existing cultural industry agglomeration development, and accelerating the construction of an international cultural and creative pioneer city. Since last year, the Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the Innovation and Development of Cultural Industry and Several Opinions on Promoting the High-quality Development of Creative Design in Shenzhen have been drafted and promulgated one after another, further increasing support for new formats such as creative design, cultural tourism, fashion culture and digital culture, and providing policy guarantee for the healthy development of cultural industry.

　　Literature carries the Tao and literature prospers the city. Whether it is to carry forward the open, pluralistic and inclusive urban culture, to carry forward the spirit of the SAR, to be the first and to work hard, to convey the humanistic spirit of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, or to integrate the socialist core values into all aspects of social development, Shenzhen is now making great strides towards a modern city with prosperous socialist culture by uniting strength, creating vitality and enhancing soft power.
