There are various hardware industrial bases around Jiangyan. After years of development, a hardware production circle centered on Jiangyan has been initially formed. As a large-scale hardware trading market in China, East China Hardware City will invest 600 million yuan in the initial stage. Relying on the special advantages of local industry, logistics, humanities and policies, it will become the hardware capital of China, the distribution center of hardware products and an emerging international hardware procurement center. In the "Implementation Plan of China (Jiangyan) Hardware Capital Development Plan" drawn up by Jiangyan District Government, there is a passage: Take "East China Hardware Logistics Base" and "Jiangsu Provincial Government Key Cultivation Project" as the development platform, establish six centers, optimize the industrial structure, upgrade the industrial grade, and build Jiangyan Hardware Industry City strongly. Today's "China (Jiangyan) Hardware Capital" was originally called "China Hardware Industry Capital". Gao Jiming, secretary of Jiangyan District Party Committee, explained that the concept of "capital" was expanded by removing industry. From "hardware capital" to "hardware capital", it is from micro concept to macro concept, from national concept to global concept.
