Analysis on the rapid rise of county economy in Maocheng, Blue Mountain County economy is a regional economy with counties as administrative divisions, which is the foundation of national economy and occupies an important position in national economy. At present, under the background of western development and eastern opening-up, how to speed up the development of county economy in central Hunan Province and integrate into Pan-Pearl River Delta economic circle as soon as possible is an important issue for all levels and departments. Through the in-depth analysis and exploration of the economic rise of Lanshan County in Hunan Province, especially the rapid rise of Lanshan Wool Textile City, it will be of great significance for us to study the subject of county economic development and make a strategic choice to undertake the industrial transfer in the Pearl River Delta.

Background 1: The Pan-Pearl River Delta Economic Circle has been fully launched. The Pan-Pearl River Delta Regional Cooperation and Development Forum held not long ago marked the official launch of the "9+2" Pan-Pearl River Delta Economic Circle, the largest new regional cooperation organization in China, and the completion of the "1358" economic circle, that is, 1 hour (Greater Pearl River Delta) and 3 hours (Guangdong), which accounts for15 of the national area and population. As Governor Zhou Bohua said at the meeting: "It is not only Hunan's responsibility to actively integrate into the Pan-Pearl River Delta regional cooperation, but also a shortcut for Hunan to accelerate its development." At present, it has become the consensus of the whole province to give full play to Hunan's role in the inner ring of Pan-Pearl River Delta economic circle and the "backyard" of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao's economic development, take exogenous economy as the first driving force to accelerate Hunan's economic development, actively accept the economic radiation of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, fully integrate into Pan-Pearl River Delta economic circle, and promote the rapid development of county economy. Background 2: Three abnormal phenomena in the economic development of Blue Mountain.

In the past two years, Lanshan County, Hunan Province, which is located at the end of the Chu River and the head of Guangdong Province, has rapidly emerged as a big wool spinning city in the process of undertaking the industrial transfer in the Pearl River Delta, and the "three major anomalies" have appeared one after another, which has aroused widespread concern in the press. First, "small hydropower" has no electricity in strong counties. Blue mountain "small hydropower" is famous in the whole province, and it is the only county in Hunan that is not under the control of the electric power bureau. At the end of last century, the county installed 35,000 kilowatts of small hydropower, and a large amount of surplus electricity was taken out of Chenzhou. In the past three years, the installed capacity of hydropower has tripled, with a total installed capacity of10.08 million kilowatts, and 75,000 kilowatts has been completed and put into operation. However, with the rapid development of industry and commerce, the demand for electricity has increased dramatically. In three years, the per capita electricity consumption has increased by 200 degrees, reaching 500 degrees, and the industrial electricity consumption has doubled. At present, the power load gap is around 20,000 kilowatts. Second, the newly-built homeowners have no room to live in. Blue Mountain's export-oriented processing trade enterprises, which mainly focus on wool industry, have grown to more than 300 in three years. The population of the county has increased by 20,000 in three years, and the rental rate of houses in the county has increased by more than 30%, which is almost saturated. Many people who have built new houses rent their houses to others to set up factories and shops and rent their own houses to live in. Third, enterprises can't find "wage earners". Employment was once a very urgent problem. In recent years, the employment gap of export-oriented processing trade enterprises in this county is more than 6,543,800+0,000 people, which has grown from scratch to 350 people and can accommodate 50,000 people. At present, there are more than 30 thousand employees, so the government has to send several teams to other provinces to recruit and ask for help. Three "abnormal" phenomena reflect the popularity and accelerated development of Blue Mountain from one side. Some people call it "blue mountain phenomenon" or "blue mountain effect".

Background 3: The development of Blue Mountain has experienced twists and turns.

The blue mountain economy had a glorious period of development. Comrade Xiaoping carried the banner of developing township enterprises in the whole province after his southern tour. 1993, the first work conference of township enterprises in the whole province, with Blue Mountain as the opening scene, kept pace with Shao Dong at that time and became famous all over the world. However, in the process of development, due to ideas, environment and other reasons, it failed to catch up for a while and entered a trough in 2000. Stone production has only 12 production lines left from 298 production lines in the peak period. The private economy has shrunk in an all-round way, the absolute tax payment has decreased by 8.92 million yuan, and the county-level fiscal revenue has only increased by 50 1 10,000 yuan in three years. Cadres and workers have not been paid for four or five months, and there are many complaints. The headline of Hunan Daily was exposed and warned.

Taking pressure as the driving force and turning lessons into wisdom is a valuable experience for the development of Lanshan people. After entering the 2 1 century, the new Lanshan county party committee and government vigorously implemented the development strategy of "private enterprises establish counties and drive them outward", grasped the environment with iron shoulders and hard hands, and concentrated on development, thus solving six major problems, namely: grasping strategic research and solving the problem of unclear thinking; Centralized rectification to solve the problem of poor environment; Grasping structural adjustment (industrial cultivation) has solved the problem of low efficiency; Attract investment and solve the problem of insufficient investment; Grasp the project construction and solve the problem of small total amount; Grasping mechanism innovation has solved the problem of stock inactivity. In just two or three hours, the blue mountain economy rose again, and the proportion of private economy in the county's total economic output rose to 80%. In particular, the blue mountain wool processing industry started in the second half of 20001year, from scratch, from slow to fast. In just over two years, it has grown to more than 300, with more than 20,000 looms and nearly 30,000 employees, with an annual income of 300 million yuan, making it the largest base for Hunan to undertake the transfer of export-oriented wool processing enterprises from Guangdong coastal areas to the mainland. In a year, there were more than 10,000 migrant workers in the county, and their popularity was booming. All the rented houses have been sold out, and the tertiary industries such as supermarkets, restaurants and transportation have developed rapidly. Two large foreign-funded enterprises with an investment of US$ 5.4 million and US$ 3.5 million, with planned employment of 6,000 and 4,000 respectively, and Hong Kong-funded electronic enterprises with certain technical content have successively settled in Blue Mountain, and a woolen city has risen rapidly, attracting attention.

The re-emergence of Blue Mountain presents three abnormal phenomena, which explain the different connotations of economic and social development in Blue Mountain County in recent years from different aspects, and there are also profound internal relations among them. These "three anomalies" not only fully conform to the economic laws, but also conform to Scientific Outlook on Development. In a county, with the acceleration of agricultural industrialization, industrialization and urbanization, the development of county economy will also accelerate, and the ensuing contradictions are normal. This is a problem in the process of accelerating development. Only in this way can we solve the problems and difficulties in development by means of development and keep the county economy alive forever.

Enlightenment from the rapid rise of Blue Mountain

(A) the development of county economy must have an accurate industrial positioning.

How does Hunan's county economy integrate into the "Pan-Pearl River Delta" economic circle? In this regard, we should deeply analyze the differences in industrial structure between Hunan and Guangdong provinces, accurately grasp the development trend of industrial adjustment and upgrading in the Greater Pearl River Delta, actively undertake some industrial transfers of the other side that are relatively at the low end of the international division of labor according to the requirements of new industrialization, and work hard on the convergence and extension of the industrial chain, so as to integrate into the industrial division system in the Greater Pearl River Delta.

Examining the mystery of Blue Mountain's re-emergence mainly lies in its clear understanding of its own county situation, accurate positioning of industrial development strategy and timely grasp of strategic opportunities, which has won the development opportunities. In order to speed up the development of Blue Mountain, at the beginning of 200 1, the county organized a county-wide investigation and discussion, objectively analyzed the county situation and examined the development trend. It is believed that the economic development of Blue Mountain has three advantages and faces rare opportunities: first, after the opening of Yong Lian Highway, it can go all the way to Guangzhou to develop the "returning geese" economy and export-oriented economy, which has unique geographical advantages; Second, the development of individual and private economy in Blue Mountain started early and the concept of privatization was strong. During the Ninth Five-Year Plan period, state-owned industrial enterprises basically withdrew from the market and had institutional advantages. Third, Blue Mountain people have strong economic awareness and strong private capital. Of the 350,000 people, more than 80,000 are working outside the home, and 60,000 of them are working in Guangdong, especially in wool processing. Many of them have become elites active in the wool processing industry in Guangdong, becoming bosses or technical backbones, with humanistic advantages; At the same time, the industries in the Pearl River Delta of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao are being optimized and upgraded, and it is increasingly urgent to transfer the labor-intensive industries of "three supplies and one supplement" to the mainland. Blue Mountain, which is at the forefront of Guangdong coastal industrial transfer, is facing a good historical opportunity. Therefore, the county party committee and the county government judged the situation and made a decisive decision, and decided to take the development of wool processing enterprises as a breakthrough, vigorously introduce "three to one supplement" enterprises, and build Blue Mountain into an export-oriented processing trade zone for the mainland to undertake the transfer of Guangdong coastal industries. It can be said that Blue Mountain has long turned the idea of the provincial party committee and government actively integrating into the "Pan-Pearl River Delta" economic circle into a preliminary reality with its bold actions, and accumulated valuable experience for our province to realize the comprehensive docking with the "Pan-Pearl River Delta" economic circle industry.

(2) To develop county economy, we must establish a correct regional view. Administrative divisions exist objectively, and economic regions are objective requirements in the process of economic development. With the continuous advancement of economic integration in Pan-Pearl River Delta Economic Circle, the pattern of economic development has changed from "administrative plate" to "economic plate", especially with the continuous improvement of traffic conditions, the combination radius of regional production factors has greatly broken through the county-level administrative regional space. In the past, the method of determining and cultivating regional economic centers according to administrative levels has proved to be a serious obstacle to the development of county economy. To win greater development of county economy, we must correctly handle the relationship between administrative regions and economic regions according to the requirements of Scientific Outlook on Development, take the market as the means of resource allocation, jump out of the shackles of administrative regions, examine and formulate county economic development strategies from the height of economic regions according to the division of regional economy, and integrate into the Pan-Pearl River Delta economic circle with a larger scale and higher level.

(C) County economic development and industrial positioning should highlight regional characteristics.

With the acceleration of global economic integration, China's economy, like the world economy, is in the stage of strategic adjustment. Therefore, industrial optimization and adjustment is a big problem facing the whole country and a prominent problem to be solved in county economy. Under the condition of modern market economy, as a regional economy, the industrial structure of a city or even a province cannot pursue "big and complete" or "small and complete", and it is impossible to form its own system and seek its own balance, let alone the level of county economy. In view of the lack of leading role in county economy and low industrial level, the unbalanced competition strategy can only be implemented in developing county economy under the condition of multi-party competition. It is necessary to highlight the introduction and development of leading enterprises, concentrate human, financial and material resources and elements on advantageous industries, leading enterprises and fist products through industrial integration, implement key support and key breakthroughs, manage strength and give full play to advantages. The formation process of pillar industries such as blue mountain wool processing and small hydropower is the result of implementing unbalanced competition strategy and making key breakthroughs.

(D) The development of county economy must adhere to the road of privatization.

From the perspective of private economy itself, it is an efficient property right system with clear property rights, flexible mechanism, strict management, scientific decision-making, no government investment and low production cost. Judging from the successful practice of advanced developed areas in China, where the private economy develops rapidly, the county economic strength is stronger. Therefore, it is necessary to further intensify the system reform, promote the diversification of public ownership, strive to regard the private economy as the internal driving force and growth point of county economic growth, play a leading role in county economic development, and provide institutional guarantee for realizing the docking with the Pan-Pearl River Delta industry. Take the Blue Mountain as an example. The balance of savings deposits of urban and rural residents in the county exceeded 654.38 billion yuan, and the per capita income exceeded 3,000 yuan. For this considerable social wealth, through the active guidance of the government, the private savings will be transformed into social investment, the "tiger" will be released, the stock adjustment will be driven by incremental investment, the commercial circulation and social services will be transformed into industrial investment, and the qualitative leap of the private economy will be realized. In 2003, 49 new power stations in this county invested 65.438+0.7 billion yuan, all of which were invested by private owners, and the government did not pay a penny, which became a major feature of the Blue Mountain economy.

(E) The development of county economy must highlight industrial clusters.

Industrial cluster (or enterprise cluster) refers to the phenomenon that a large number of enterprises with closely related industries (usually with a leading industry as the core) gather in space in a specific field to form a strong and sustainable competitive advantage. After the reform and opening up, China's industrial clusters have developed rapidly, which is an important form of intensification and specialization of traditional industries and modern manufacturing industries in China and an important force to promote the leap-forward development of regional economy. Economists believe that under the condition of market economy, enterprises are the economic subject and the government is the service subject. For enterprises, the government is not a bossy and meddlesome "mother-in-law", but a strategic partnership based on local economic development and social responsibility. Although clusters often arise spontaneously, the government, as the organizer of resource allocation, can play the role of "promoting birth", especially in the development stage of clusters, the guiding role of the government is more obvious. Its main function is to create an industrial environment. In the situation of economic globalization, capital and factors are mobile. Whether a place can attract investment and create business opportunities depends on its resource advantages, location advantages and preferential policies, but the most important thing is the industrial environment. The reason why large wool textile enterprises like Li Hong and Chengyang can settle in Blue Mountain is that they have taken a fancy to the good industrial environment formed by hundreds of small and medium-sized wool textile enterprises in Blue Mountain, which will provide fertile ground for the further development of enterprises. At the same time, the introduction of large enterprises can enhance the ability of small and medium-sized enterprises to resist market risks and win broader development space. The original wool processing enterprise in this county can only complete weaving and sewing. Now Li Hong and Chengyang Company can complete all the processes of picking, washing, dyeing, embroidering and exporting wool, and directly sign processing and sales contracts with foreign businessmen to achieve the goal of "win-win" and ultimately promote the rapid development of county economy. (6) To develop the county economy, we must expand the input of credit funds.

Finance is the core of modern economy, and honesty is the basis of economic cooperation. At present, the loss of local financial resources, especially at the county level, is very serious. Take the Blue Mountain as an example. In 2003, the county's loan balance only increased by 3.2%, far below the growth level of 17.8% in the whole province and 210.4% in the whole country. In 2000, the difference between deposits and loans in Blue Mountain was 380 million yuan, and it reached 640 million yuan in 2003, an increase of 67%. After deducting various reserves and losses over the years, the funds available for credit exceeded 400 million yuan. At present, it is especially necessary to take practical and effective measures to strengthen cooperation between local and financial institutions, do a good job in the construction of credit system and credit environment, strive to create financial security zones, turn financial advantages into economic advantages as soon as possible, prevent the loss of financial resources, and provide strong credit support for the rapid and healthy development of county economy.

(7) To develop the county economy, we must vigorously optimize the economic environment.

Environmental quality is related to the life and death of county economy, especially export-oriented economy. For foreign companies, the infrastructure is not good, they can't get in, the development environment is not good, and they can't stay. In order to seize the development opportunity of undertaking industrial transfer in the Pearl River Delta, we must take creating a good investment and development environment as a strategic decision. While vigorously improving the infrastructure, we should focus on the optimization of the economic development environment, strengthen the supervision of administrative efficiency, further improve the work style, effectively change the functions, truly transfer the government functions to the implementation of policies, market supervision, social management and public services, and focus on improving services and creating an environment.

(eight) the development of county economy should play the role of industry associations.

Trade association is the representative of the collective interests of enterprises, and it is a "bridge" connecting enterprises and enterprises, enterprises and the government. For the loose production cooperative enterprises in the county economy, there is an urgent need for industry associations with considerable appeal to organize and guide them. It is necessary to strengthen the planning and construction of the association, endow it with certain functions, hand over the social functions that should belong to the industry association as soon as possible, and entrust the management functions suitable for the industry association to the industry association as far as possible to enhance the cohesion and appeal of the association. At the same time, it is necessary to give full play to the advantages of the association, so that it can actively make suggestions for the government, promote public policies to better serve industrial development, and effectively promote county economic development.
