13 Ningbo Times 2021年8月27日 星期五 责任编辑/金 NINGBO DAILY By Dong Na The date August 30, 2020 was remarkable. On that day, Ningbo officially became one of the three expanded areas of Chi- na (Zhejiang) Pilot Free Trade Zone, meaning that the city ush- ered in a new round of signifi- cant opportunities for opening up to the world. In less than a year, the Ningbo Area of China (Zhejiang) Pilot Free Trade Zone has pro- moted 16 innovative achieve- ments and housed 64 major in- vestment projects, with a total investment of nearly 200 billion yuan. Implementation of the Innovation with Originality Model Recently, in Lingfeng Mod- ern Industrial Park, Beilun Dis- trict, the road framework of the core block has been completed. With more than four months to go before the planned completion date, 13 industrial projects have been settled in the park with a total investment of about 4.27 billion yuan, said He Guangli, head of the Park. Such achieve- ments are blessed by the imple- mentation of original innovations emergent as a result of the Ning- bo Area Industrial Community Integrated Service Mechanism. Lingfeng Industrial Park has a total planning area of 13.4 square kilometers, of which 3.2 square kilometers are included in the Ningbo Area. In terms of in- dustrial layout, the park focuses on the expansion of intelligent equipment and services, 5G+ in- dustrial Internet, industrial key basic parts, and high- end auto parts, and strive to reach 100 billion yuan of new industrial output value by 2030. The Ningbo Area Indus- trial Community Integrated Ser- vice Mechanism is a major breakthrough in management. A year ago, "industrial communi- ty" was still a stranger to ordi- nary people in the Area, but now it is popular. In this March, Beilun re- leased the first provincial- level standards set forth for community- based management of and ser- vices for industrial clusters in China. In the first half of 2021 alone, the Industrial Community Integrated Service Mechanism was awarded "one of the 16 in- novative pilot policies" in the Ningbo Area. New Record of Project Introduction and Production New record was made in the Ningbo Area in project in- troduction and production. Last year, 44 projects were introduced to the Ningbo area within 77 days after its estab- lishment, creating an average of one project settled in less than 2 days. This year, 35 major indus- trial projects have been complet- ed and put into operation in the Ningbo Area, covering high-end manufacturing, green petrochem- ical, integrated circuit, and auto- mobile and parts, among others, with a total investment of 23.578 billion yuan. The project of Ningbo Ale- arth New Materials Company is an epitome of the "production speed". At the end of last year, the company successfully broke through the technical bottleneck and became the first enterprise in China to develop electronic grade ultra-high purity aluminum with a purity of 99.9999%. "The total investment of the project is 355 million yuan, and the annual sales revenue will ex- ceed 1.5 billion yuan. We are now starting production ahead of schedule, setting the stage for the next phase of growth. This is a reflection of the free trade effi- ciency in the Ningbo Area." Zhang Jin, a representative of the company, said that the new products have begun to be sup- plied in small batches. Up to now, among 64 key projects in the Ningbo Area, 44 have been started and three of them have been completed. Functional Positioning to Promote Regional Development In May this year, Ningbo unveiled a construction plan for the Ningbo Area of China (Zhe- jiang) Pilot Free Trade Zone. According to the plan, the Ningbo area is positioned to be- come an international shipping and logistics hub, an internation- ally influential oil and gas re- source distribution center, an in- novation center for international supply chains, a global scientific innovation center for new mate- rials, and a demonstration zone for intelligent manufacturing. In terms of building a new international energy trade center, at present, Ningbo has issued a new international energy trade center construction plan and ac- tively promoted the operation of digital energy and bulk com- modity industry platform, among others. The market vitality stimu- lated by the reforms in the Ningbo Area has also compre- hensively promoted the high- quality development of the re- gion: Ningbo has become one of the seven industrial bases of new materials in China, and is home to three of the top ten semicon- ductor material producers in China. Meanwhile, Ningbo's po- sition in the global supply chain is also constantly improving. By 2025, the city aims to build a system centered on openness and a top-tier business environment. The plan also has several specific goals, such as achieving an annual cross- border RMB settlement amount of 200 billion yuan ($30.77 billion). Ningbo Zhoushan Port's an- nual container throughput is tar- geted to hit 32.7 million TEUs, while the figure for its oil and gas trade should reach 431 billion yuan. The city has also set goals of increasing its imports and ex- ports to 2 trillion yuan and lifting the output value of new materials sector to above 500 billion yuan.

She won two gold medals at the 2016 Summer Paralympics and took titles at the 2019 World Champi- onships in the Netherlands. The reason for choos- ing Zhou Jiamin as the flag- bearer is based on the con- sideration of the overall quality of the athletes. "Zhou was a champion at the Rio Paralympic Games. She just graduated from Beijing Sport University this year and is fluent in both English and Japanese," said Yangjian, a representative of Zhejiang Provincial Disabled Persons' Federation. There are three mem- bers in Zhou's family, her mother, a 19- year- old younger sister, and Zhou. Her younger sister suffers mental disability caused by cerebral palsy.

Zhou Jiamin, who had never been formally trained, was mobilized to be a member to fill up the team.
