how to "build a city by borrowing stations" to effectively improve people's living standards

Shishan Town is currently expanding the scope and influence of Foshan West Railway Station to "build a city by borrowing stations", and a new urban blueprint has taken shape. On this basis, how to effectively improve the living standards of the people through "borrowing the station to build a city" is a question that the Shishan Town Party Committee and Government will focus on in the next step.

At present, the station yard of Foshan West Railway Station has been basically completed. On the basis of urban construction, it is necessary to continuously attract people and become popular, and promote this area. Only when the popularity grows, the surrounding living service industry can develop, and holding small exhibitions is a good way to attract people. Shishan has a well-developed manufacturing industry and abundant special agricultural products. Can a Shishan science and technology product exhibition and agricultural product exhibition be built on this basis to attract more people to gather here? While expanding the influence of Foshan West Railway Station, the surrounding villages must also share the development results. Taking advantage of the radiation of Foshan West Railway Station, Zhaoda Community is currently building a model village (residential) with characteristics of rural revitalization in Nanhai District to beautify the residential environment of the community. The environment is beautiful. Can Zhaoda Community develop tourism, catering and homestay industries on this basis, so that the people can really taste the "sweetness" of environmental beautification? Let us wait and see.

The crowd will not stay here. How can we use this to gather popularity?" The Shishan Town Party Committee and Government has made careful arrangements to drive the transformation of Shishan Town into a modern city with the leadership of party building, and build a new hub in the western part of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Among them, the "Dongrong" strategy is not only the first of the three strategies, but also the most core strategy.

Lion Mountain takes the opportunity of building a new hub city in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, attracting makers from Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan through the China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan competitions and other platforms to come to Shishan to start businesses, and cultivate high-end equipment by integrating land resources through the transformation of the "three olds" The manufacturing and productive service industries provide high-end talents with a place for entrepreneurship. It can not only solve the problem of how to gather the flow of people that experts are most concerned about, but also contribute to the lionshan exploration of "borrowing stations to build cities" for the development of Chinese cities.
