Volume 19 The Country is So Beautiful Section 59 The Relationship Between Urban Taste and Competitiveness
Lu Weimin also knew that Lan Island is the hometown of many famous film and television stars and performing artists, and has some advantages in this regard. At the same time, Cao Lang is a cadre who is training at the bottom of the country. He definitely hopes to use this resource to gain some opportunities for Lan Island. If this Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival can be settled in Lan Island, it will not only have a good improvement effect on Lan Island's urban taste and influence, but also play a great role in promoting his future after returning to the country.
Even if you write a resume, you can make such a contribution. You have successfully won the right to apply for the 16th Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival for Blue Island. You also served as the deputy leader of the bidding leadership group and made indelible contributions to the bidding of the film festival. Of course, this is a bit exaggerated and joking.
More importantly, Lu Weimin attaches great importance to the improvement of this cultural and sports activity in a city's urban taste.
When he was in Songzhou, he felt a little regretful that Songzhou's urban positioning and taste were lower, or it started too late. Although Songzhou is known as a historical and cultural city, there are not many business cards that can truly make Songzhou famous. Xunyang Tower, which Song Jiang wrote in the anti-poem, was counted as one, Lize Lake, and nothing else was nothing else. That's why he spared no effort in Songzhou to promote the Songzhou International Clothing Expo and host the New Silk Road International Model Competition, which can better enhance Songzhou's urban influence and taste. However, Songzhou is still far from cities like Landao/Hangzhou/Dalian.
Fortunately, Songzhou is a typical manufacturing city. Although it also hopes to improve the urban taste and improve the investment environment, the gap between a manufacturing city and a comprehensive big city is still obvious, and there are still big differences in requirements.
Blue Island will have a large-scale event, Olympic sailing competition next year, which will bring many active factors to Blue Island's sports. If the 16th Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival can be held this year, it will also have a strong literary and artistic atmosphere for Blue Island. These are exactly what a comprehensive metropolis is. And to be honest, the more high-end competitive the city is, the more you pay attention to it in this regard.
Although a city's competitiveness includes infrastructure/transportation conditions/human prices/government policies, etc., these factors are relatively low-end. What really attracts high-end industries are some factors that many leading cadres do not pay much attention to, such as whether human resources are abundant, whether the city's cultural, entertainment and sports activities are abundant, whether the social security is good, whether the government's efficiency is fast, and whether the financing environment is loose. These are the factors that high-end industries are most concerned about. Especially some high-end manufacturing industries such as high-end manufacturing and information industries related to the Internet, they attach more importance to whether human resources can meet the needs. In this regard, Blue Island's foundation is far better than Songzhou.
One of the most important factors determine whether a city's human resources, especially whether the mid-to-high-end human resources are abundant is whether the city is attractive to these mid-to-high-end human resources. This attraction is composed of a collection of many factors, such as entrepreneurial atmosphere/employment environment/housing price/life convenience index/cultural and entertainment comfort/consumption index, and even air quality/climate suitability/natural environment, etc. These are important elements that constitute these attraction.
To give a simple example, if a returnee wants to bring his family back to China, he will invite a group of like-minded classmates or colleagues to start a business. The first thing they need to consider is whether there is a suitable entrepreneurial environment, including whether financing is easy and easy, whether renting office space is convenient and cheap. Whether the communication network is developed and fast, whether recruiting employees is easy and convenient, they also need to consider whether the city is suitable. For example, they also need to consider whether there is a satisfactory school for their family and children's study, and whether there is a good social and natural living environment. These are all aggregated from countless factors. In the same choice of entrepreneurial places, not only one or two factors can impress them, but they also need to comprehensively evaluate the optimality of the entire factor environment.
Although cities like Beijing and Shanghai have their own unique advantages, Lu Weimin believes that Blue Island also has characteristics that Beijing and Shanghai do not have. For example, Linhai has excellent scenery and climate, good air quality and smooth transportation. These are not comparable to Beijing and Shanghai. Now what Blue Island needs to do is to make up for its strengths and make up for its weaknesses. On the one hand, it tries its best to highlight its strengths and improve its own shortcomings.
For example, there is a good foundation for infrastructure construction in Blue Island, but there is still a big gap between the cultural atmosphere and consumption convenience index and Beijing and Shanghai. Take Beijing as an example. National Grand Theater/Beijing Concert Hall/Poly Theater/Meilanfang Grand Theater/Chang'an Grand Theater/Zhongshan Concert Hall. Various literary and artistic activities are being performed almost every day, which can meet the spiritual needs of various enthusiasts. This alone is not comparable to other cities, and this is exactly the aspect that mid-to-high-end talents value the most.
Also for graduates, finding a place of employment that satisfies them the most is the greatest wish. Why would these college students rather live in the basement of places like Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou than go back to their hometown to start a business? Because they think places like Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou can provide them with more employment opportunities and entrepreneurial opportunities, and they have better promotion opportunities and development space in employment and entrepreneurship. There are many like-minded classmates, colleagues and friends who can reach a talk here. They can go to work during the day, and after get off work, they can go to sports games, listen to music, movies and dramas together, and drink coffee and bars together. The living atmosphere here makes them even more intoxicated. They are unwilling to go back to their hometowns in the central and western regions to live a monotonous life of sunrise and sunset. They want to work hard while they are young, and even if they don’t succeed, it’s too easy to go home. It’s that simple.
In Lu Weimin's view, if Landao wants to further enhance its urban competitiveness, its investment in literature, art and sports must be further increased. Only when a city's taste is improved can you have stronger human resources attractiveness and stronger urban competitiveness. This is a connected structure.
Hosting the 16th Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival is undoubtedly a huge opportunity. It can echo next year's Olympic events. In addition, activities such as Blue Ocean Beer Festival/International Fashion Week/Sailing Festival can further expand the influence of Blue Island city.
"Jianwei, next year, our Blue Island will usher in the Olympic sailing competition event. In terms of infrastructure construction, our Blue Island has also invested a lot, which has driven our urban construction. However, I still feel that our Blue Island is still far from the positioning of our Blue Island in cultural and sports atmosphere. Although we have some cultural and sports activities, if we carefully compare cities such as Dalian/Hangzhou and Suzhou, we still seem to be insufficient. The future Blue Island is not just a manufacturing city. We all have a consensus on this. Blue Island is the pearl of the peninsula and the international regional central city in the entire Northeast Asia. Its urban taste is very important. GDP is only one aspect. The key lies in the improvement of the overall strength of the entire city. The construction of the cultural and sports atmosphere is a very important part, which is particularly important for enhancing our city's competitiveness."
Lu Weimin's words surprised Dong Jianwei. He didn't expect Lu Weimin to raise a film festival to such a high level. He even thought that Lu Weimin intended to support the scene for Cao Lang. However, he realized from Lu Weimin's serious tone that it was definitely not that simple. This was a statement that Lu Weimin had already prepared, and it was extremely serious and cautious.
He also noticed a statement from Lu Weimin, that is, the international central city of Northeast Asia, abbreviated as the central city of Northeast Asia, not only limited to Qi and Lu, but also domestically, but even crossing the sea to radiate to Japan, South Korea and North Korea.
At the same time, Lu Weimin also mentioned the linkage effect of the word "urban taste and cultural and sports activity atmosphere building" with urban competitiveness, which is also a new term and fresh information.
The information in this passage was too large, which made Dong Jianwei unable to digest for a while, but he understood that Lu Weimin's attitude was very clear, and he wanted to support Landao to strive to host the 16th Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival, and to be determined to win at all costs.
Dong Jianwei is not a person who follows the crowd. Lu Weimin expressed his attitude, and he would not change his attitude immediately. He needs to clarify his point of view: "Secretary Lu, Lao Cao said just now that Suzhou is very competitive and has the advantage of taking the lead. I am afraid that we will work hard at this time, which is a bit too late. If we spend so much effort to fight for it, it will fail in the end, will it be...?"
Lu Weimin understood what Dong Jianwei meant and spent so much effort to fight for it, but failed. This was a blow to the power of the municipal party committee and government, especially the current municipal party committee. To put it bluntly, it was a blow to your Lu Weimin's power of the government. This was very unfavorable to Lu Weimin, who wanted to strive to quickly gain a foothold. I had a good intention.
Of course, Lu Weimin thought about this issue, but he was unwilling to give up such an opportunity.
Cao Lang is not the kind of person who speaks nonsense. He said before that if the whole city is working hard to fight, he will still have certain confidence, that is, he will be able to fight and he will give up before he even fights, which is too frustrating.
Moreover, this activity is extremely helpful for starting his own urban soft environment construction and improving the overall competitiveness of the city. He must try this.
"Jianwei, whether it is win or lose, we won't consider it for the time being. There is still more than a month left. Besides, didn't we do a lot of work in the early stage?" Lu Weimin shook his head, "More than a month is enough for us to do a lot of things. Let's make a good decision. I think there are still some ways to do it."
