Enhancing Local Economic and Social Development through Functional Role

Recently, a reporter from China Economic Net followed the "Tell the Story of China's New Political Party System" online theme interview activity media group into Tianjin to understand on-site how the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the China Democratic National Construction Association (CDNCA) plays its role in promoting local economic development.

Revitalizing existing resources and empowering regional economic high-quality development

On the morning of July 1st this year, a freight train loaded with auto parts and machinery slowly left Tianjin International Land Port, located in Xiqing District, Tianjin, heading for Moscow, the capital of Russia. This was the first China-Europe Railway Express to depart from Tianjin International Land Port.

In recent years, Tianjin has taken "three news" (scientific and technological innovation, industrial renewal, urban renewal) and "three quantities" (revitalizing existing resources, nurturing new quantities, improving quality) as important means to promote high-quality development. The successful introduction of the Tianjin International Land Port project is a significant practice.

It is understood that in September 2023, the Beijing Municipal Committee of the CDNCA, the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the CDNCA, and the Hebei Provincial Committee of the CDNCA hosted a symposium on the three regions' CDNCA organizations helping the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and signed a cooperation framework agreement. During the meeting, the person in charge of the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the CDNCA sincerely invited Hebei Land Port Group to invest and develop in Tianjin. In the following 7 months, the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the CDNCA assisted Xiqing District in multiple rounds of communication and docking with Hebei Land Port Group. After careful feasibility demonstration, Hebei Land Port Group decided to establish Tianjin Land Port Construction Co., Ltd. in Tianjin, invest in the construction of the Tianjin International Land Port hub node, and successfully signed the project in April 2024, which was settled in Zhangjiawu Town, Xiqing District.

According to the agreement, Tianjin International Land Port Construction Co., Ltd. will revitalize the 500 acres of idle land and factories of the Central Enterprise North China Petroleum Transit Station (Plot 641) in Zhangjiawu Town, Xiqing District, and about 1200 acres of idle land and factories of the Tianjin Branch of Blue Star Petrochemical Co., Ltd., to build functional areas such as railway freight yards, container yards, and logistics industrial parks. Hebei Land Port Group will integrate the idle assets of the original North China Petroleum Material Warehouse and Blue Star Petrochemical into Tianjin International Land Port.

"Our first China-Europe Railway Express carried a total of 110 standard containers, transported 1129 tons of goods, with a value of 15.06 million yuan, exited through the Erenhot port to Europe, traveled a total distance of about 7800 kilometers, and arrived at the destination in 16 days." Guo Chuning, the general manager of Tianjin International Land Port, said to the reporter of China Economic Net that the opening of the China-Europe Railway Express is conducive to expanding and upgrading Tianjin's logistics channels connecting the Eurasian continent, achieving mutual promotion and complementarity between land and sea, and also provides a new logistics service choice for import and export enterprises in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region to enter the international market.

Talking about the next step of development, Guo Chuning said that Tianjin International Land Port will accelerate the construction of the core area of the railway freight yard, improve the preliminary planning and design work of various supporting functional areas in the later stage, actively integrate into the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" and the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, strengthen the construction of multimodal transportation facilities and supporting service systems, and expand the opening of international routes from Tianjin to Central Asia, Central and Eastern Europe, Western Europe, and ASEAN on the basis of promoting the steady operation of the China-Europe Railway Express, to empower and add momentum to regional economic development.

Be brave in taking responsibility and jointly draw a new picture of comprehensive rural revitalization

Not long ago, the China Enterprise Confederation and the China Entrepreneurs Association released the "2024 China Top 500 Enterprises" list, and Yun Account Technology (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Yun Account) was among them.It is understood that Yun Zhanghu is an online human resources service enterprise, mainly by undertaking the business needs of corporate clients, serving new employment form workers, including service cleaning aunts, takeaway brothers, video creators and other professional groups. At present, the company has provided flexible employment services for more than 100 million new employment form workers.

"Flexible employment provides employment opportunities for people with less professional skills, lower education levels, and weak risk resistance." Zhang Yang, a member of the Tianjin Civil Construction and the Chief Financial Officer of Yun Zhanghu, told China Economic Net reporters that among the new employment form workers served by Yun Zhanghu, more than 25 million people come from former national-level poor counties, and 2.18 million people are former registered poor households.

In recent years, Yun Zhanghu has actively responded to the call of the Central Committee of the Civil Construction and has vigorously participated in the targeted assistance work in Fengning, Hebei and other places, helping local development. In July 2019, at the on-site promotion meeting of the Civil Construction Assistance in Fengning Poverty Alleviation Work, Yun Zhanghu signed a 3 million yuan consumer poverty alleviation agreement. Continuing the rural revitalization, under the guidance of the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the Civil Construction, Yun Zhanghu continues to participate in the targeted assistance of Fengning County, supporting low-income family house repairs, Shi Ren Gou Township Cultural Square construction, Wan Sheng Yong Village alley hardening and other projects.

"In Wan Sheng Yong Village, we learned through research that the village's two committees launched a new way to get rich on the basis of the existing more than 20,000 acres of characteristic planting industry, planning to focus on expanding the planting pilot of Chinese herbal medicine Chuan Shao. The flowering period of Chuan Shao can form a 'flower sea', enhance the attractiveness to tourists, and the mature roots can be processed into Chinese herbal medicine raw materials, which has a good market prospect." Zhang Yang introduced that, combined with the research, Yun Zhanghu invested 350,000 yuan to promote the expansion of the Chuan Shao planting pilot in Xiawa Village by 60 acres, helping local development of rural characteristic planting industry.

Zhang Yang said, "Next, in the process of comprehensively promoting rural revitalization, Yun Zhanghu will continue to respond to the call of the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the Civil Construction, carry out consumer assistance, characteristic industry assistance, infrastructure construction, cultural education support and other work, the most needed in the assisted areas, the enterprise will help. At the same time, polish every product and service to help more ordinary people increase their income through new business forms."
