The Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation(688981) harbor base project with an investment of more than 50 billion yuan, and the Yiming Angke biopharmaceutical industrialization base project settled in Zhangjiang Science City… Recently, a number of new major projects were started in Pudong New Area of Shanghai. Through the linkage development with the new port area of Shanghai free trade zone and giving play to the joint efforts of the two national strategies, Shanghai Pudong has accelerated the transformation of the vision of the leading area of socialist modernization into a real scene.
Unfolding the map of Pudong New Area, the north is Shanghai Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone Group Co.Ltd(600648) International Trade City, the middle is Shanghai Lujiazui Finance & Trade Zone Development Co.Ltd(600663) Financial City, Zhangjiang Science City and Jinqiao intelligent manufacturing city, and the south is the hot Lingang New Area of Shanghai free trade zone. Many “old Pudong” said with emotion that from a beach to a future city, the rapid development of the new area near the port reminds people of the picture at the beginning of Pudong’s development and opening up in the 1990s.
Shanghai Bibo Biomedical Technology Co., Ltd., located in Lingang New Area, is a cdmo (contract R & D and production) enterprise. Generally speaking, it is a OEM in the field of biomedicine. In the early stage of entrepreneurship, Bibo biology chose Zhangjiang Science City and built a pilot test platform here. However, building a larger production base requires broader space.
Looking for new development space, Bibo biology has set its sights on the port. “It takes only 147 days from commencement to delivery, while similar international projects generally take about a year and a half.” Said Li Hui, chief operating officer of Bibo biology. At present, the phase I project of Bibo biological production platform near the port has been completed and the phase II project is being rapidly promoted. It is planned to build a large-scale mammalian cell production line with a single tank of 30000 liters by the end of 2022, and fill the gap in China’s biomedical industrialization by using the mode of “Zhangjiang R & D + port production”.
According to the opinions of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on supporting the high-level reform and opening up of Pudong New Area and building a leading area for socialist modernization, Pudong should build a new highland of independent innovation. “Zhangjiang Science City is the source of independent innovation. The New Lingang area does more international collaborative innovation. The two are both dislocation and synergy.” Tang Hao, director of the development and Reform Department of Lingang New Film District Management Committee, said that using the platform of the world’s top scientists forum, Lingang also transmits international innovation resources to Zhangjiang Science City to realize the interactive coupling of innovation elements.
It is the common choice of many science and innovation enterprises to place the R & D center in the mature area of Pudong New Area and the production base in the New Lingang area. Probes are indispensable in IC packaging and testing, and are also the focus of Luo XiongKe, head of Zefeng semiconductor technology. Every week, Luo XiongKe goes back and forth between the R & D center of Shanghai Jinqiao Export Processing Zone Development Co.Ltd(600639) Development Zone and the industrial park in Lingang New Area to promote the completion and operation of the company’s manufacturing base.
“After several years of development, the integrated circuit industry ecology in Lingang New Area is taking shape, and a large number of downstream users and potential customers gather here, which is conducive to the rapid growth of enterprises.” Luo XiongKe said.
In addition to industrial interaction, the achievements of institutional innovation are also exchanged and learned from each other in Pudong leading area and new films near Hong Kong. In October 2021, the “offshore link” platform was launched in the Shanghai Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone Group Co.Ltd(600648) free trade zone of Shanghai free trade zone. At present, this platform is expanding to new areas near Hong Kong. According to relevant plans, the new port area in the “14th five year plan” should accelerate the large-scale development of offshore trade, and the annual average growth of offshore trade transaction volume is 30%.
At the same time, the integrated information management service system of Yangshan special comprehensive bonded zone near the port is also accelerating its replication to Shanghai Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone Group Co.Ltd(600648) , helping the latter achieve a higher level of openness.
“Taking the heaviest burden and gnawing the hardest bone, we will spare no effort to promote the linkage of reform and opening up, innovation and development of Pudong leading area and Lingang New Area.” Zhu Zhisong, member of the Standing Committee of the Shanghai municipal Party committee and Secretary of the Pudong New Area District Party committee, said that in the next five years, Pudong will aim at the pioneer of higher-level reform and opening up, the benchmark of independent innovation and development, the functional highland of global resource allocation, the model guidance of expanding China’s demand and the model of modern urban governance.
