Now, what kind of development momentum do people in Nanjing hope to see?
In the past, people were more likely to be impressed by lofty plans. Even a PPT could make the media and the people of the city excited .
Now, what Nanjing people want to see more is that they must have ambitious goals, but also achieve them with sufficient certainty.
Between reality, fulfillment and vision, what the people want to see is a “hot” situation , where everyone is full of confidence, passion and sense of mission for the present and the future, developing step by step, giving feedback, and stepping forward to surprise. Zweig wrote in “When the Human Stars Shine”: ” The greatest luck in a person’s life is to discover his lifelong mission when he is young and strong .” This sentence inspired countless people to devote themselves to the love of their lives. In career.
From 0 to 1, from 1 to 100, Jiangbei New District finally saw such full enthusiasm for development: the tower crane is like “dancing” in the air, the shield machine is like “sonson” underground, the industrial romantic myth is staged, and on the bank of the Yangtze River, Groups of young people were riding, and their singing and laughter spread far along Binjiang Avenue…
The appearance of full firepower is the confidence of the people .
The construction of Nanjing North Railway Station is in full swing, and this is the Jiangbei New District that is accelerating.
Why do the province and city firmly support Jiangbei New Area?
The “Opinions on Supporting the High-Quality Construction of Nanjing Jiangbei New Area” was released, and Jiangsu issued a special document to support the high-quality development of Nanjing Jiangbei New Area. China’s 19 new districts spread across the country have dynamic systems, many innovations, and strong momentum. They account for about 0.2% of the country’s population and area, and create 5% of the country’s total economic output . Among them, the GDP of Shanghai Pudong and Tianjin Binhai New Area accounted for more than 30% of the GDP of Shanghai and Tianjin.
As a result, Jiangbei New Area has high hopes to become the “birthplace” of innovative industrial clusters in Jiangsu and Nanjing, create a practical place for the development of new productive forces, and lead the high-quality development of the region.
“Rebuilding a new Nanjing”, the development of a region is not afraid of the difficult process, but is afraid of having no goals and dawdling .
The two sessions of the National People’s Congress have just ended. Nobunaga Xing, Secretary of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee, led a team to Nanjing Jiangbei New District for investigation for the first time. Zhou Hongbo, member of the Standing Committee of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Nanjing Municipal Party Committee, went to Jiangbei New District for investigation and also proposed to speed up the construction of the new area into the “main position”. “ .
The “Nanjing Land and Space Master Plan (2021-2035)”, which was officially approved by the State Council this year, officially confirmed that the new main city of Jiangbei will be included in the central city and become one of the dual main cities in the future .
There may have been a time when Nanjing people hesitated and worried about the construction of new areas. After all, the lower reaches of the Yangtze River are vast, and no city has ever been able to develop across the river. It is undeniable that the road is long and difficult.
But in terms of policy, decision-making and strategy, the Yangtze River should be made an inland river of Nanjing, with both sides of the river developing in tandem. This kind of courage existed in Jiangbei New District in the past and still exists now .
Development quality and strategic sustainability are the confidence of Jiangbei New District.

The new main city in Jiangbei should look like a main city, and the urban framework should be incorporated into “Greater Nanjing”.
If Nanjing Railway Station is one of the main arteries of the city, then Nanjing South Railway Station supports the development of the south of the city and drives the intersection with the outside world with an annual flow of 30 million people.
The current Nanjing North Railway Station has set a new benchmark in Jiangbei New Area and is the only railway hub in Nanjing that integrates high-speed rail, intercity and general-speed rail . From Nanjing North Railway Station, Nanjing Railway Station to Nanjing South Railway Station, a high-speed railway ring is formed, and a huge “meter”-shaped high-speed railway network unfolds . The power of tens of millions of people in the future is nurtured here.
- The new sections of the North Yanjiang High-speed Railway (including the reconstruction of the general-speed system) and the Ningxia-Huai Intercity Railway are under full construction;
- The main bridge of Xinshengwei Yangtze River Bridge is completed;
- The Jianning West Road river crossing has fully entered the interior decoration and mechanical and electrical equipment installation stages;
- Construction of the second phase of Metro Line 4 and the first phase of Metro Line 11 has started…
Then, “supporting the river” has gradually become concrete from an abstract word . This scene is just like the opening of the Yangtze River Tunnel, the Yangtze River Tunnel and the Five Yangtze River Bridges, and has now been integrated into the daily life of Nanjing people.
The traffic in the new district is expanded, while “urban resources” are injected into the interior .
Sam’s Club Supermarket will open in 2024. The commercial part will have a construction area of about 40,000 square meters, which is twice as large as the 20,000 square meters Yuhua Living Room E-PARK. There will also be a special parking lot underground. On the opening day, there were huge crowds of people, even people from the main city and Hexi rushed to Jiangbei.
As we all know, the location of Sam’s Club stores is ruthless, and the target group is very precise. Sam’s Club will not be established in places that are not the core center.
Because not only does it cater to middle-class families, young people also love visiting Sam’s. What they love is not only the internet-famous products such as grilled chicken, durian mille-feuille or Swiss rolls, but also its brand mentality of “cheap big bowls” and “high-quality selection”.
A number of commercial openings, such as Fengda International Hotel and Wanhui Chengbei District Commercial Complex , have continued to enrich consumer supply.
Education is also improving, with 6 newly opened schools including the Jiangbei Branch of Jinling Middle School and the Jiangbei Branch of the High School Affiliated to the South Normal University offering 3,240 new degrees.
Some people say that Jiangbei New Area is the first time in the history of Nanjing that famous schools have collectively settled in the area. Nanjing Foreign Language School, Nanjing Normal University Affiliated High School, Jinling Middle School, Lang Primary School, Fang Primary School, Mingdao, Yuying Second Foreign Language School and many other famous schools have established their presence in Jiangbei New Area. Education is a long-term undertaking, but Qidian Famous School Education Group has a first-mover advantage .
How to solve the “livability” problem?
Yangzi Poly Jiangyun Zhenyue, the first 4th-generation residential building in the new district, has been selling well for the first time in four seasons, with over 85% of the first-time sales . At the opening ceremony, many young people realized their dreams of Jiangbei New District and excitedly waved and took photos.
Jinji Shanchuanjiangyue has a large area and beautiful interior views, and is ranked among the top ten luxury homes in Asia. A real estate consultant frankly said that Gulou and Hexi have more customers, and they prefer large apartments, so they will live in it after buying it. “ They were surprised by the quality of the community and felt that the surrounding facilities in the new area were well developed, making it very suitable for self-living .”
This was a rare scene in the past. From young people to well-off families, Jiangbei New District has become their choice.
In fact, leisure parks, Internet celebrity art installations, colorful road greening, and cafes in office buildings are increasingly showing a “modern” temperament.
To look at the urban sophistication of a place, we should not just look at the specially created “attractions” , but also look at the high-frequency daily details of citizens. This is the Qili River, with ripples of light and nearby residents taking leisurely walks.
This is the Pearl River Road, with the glow of the old mountains and full of greenery, embracing the prosperity of the city and the tranquility of nature at the same time.
It is not difficult to create a “house-selling” Jiangbei, but creating a “high-quality livable place” requires “concentration . “
Objectively speaking, Jiangbei New Area has truly achieved “a sense of design” and “a sense of urban atmosphere” at a very small granularity, even surpassing the main city in terms of details.

If the increasingly clear cityscape is a picture of Jiangbei New District, industry is the source of support and promotion of sustainable development.
The tangible Jiangbei New Area is the erected high-rise buildings, libraries, businesses and roads, etc., while the invisible Jiangbei New Area has new productive forces in buildings, in the laboratories of the park, and in the scientific research workstations of the university.
In December, the China University Science and Technology Achievement Fair was held at the Yangtze River International Conference Center. This is the country’s first regional technology transfer and transformation center for universities, and the model demonstration is of great significance. Not only does it bring together leading domestic universities such as Tsinghua University, Peking University, Fudan University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Nanjing University, Zhejiang University, Southeast University, etc., 241 of them (117 “double first-class” universities) bring together key promotion results and high-value patented technologies. , a total of 2,716 items were traded on the spot.
2,747 companies, more than 200 technology transfer institutions and technology financial institutions participated in school-enterprise docking cooperation; a number of cooperation projects were signed on the spot…
Also in the past December, one of the important events of the World Intelligent Manufacturing Conference – the “Intelligent Manufacturing Empowers Industry to Strengthen the City” major project investment signing event was held in Nanjing. A total of 14 industrial projects were signed in Jiangbei New District , all of which were worth more than 100 million yuan. project. Among them, there are 3 projects with a total investment of more than 1 billion yuan, accounting for 21%.
In fact, Jiangbei New District’s investment promotion achievements are obvious to all. There were 800 newly signed projects throughout the year, 5 new projects of more than 5 billion yuan, 6 key traction projects, 30 projects of more than 1 billion yuan, and 400 projects of more than 100 million yuan.
Project attraction is the “front page headline”, and industry cultivation is the “hard core foundation” .
The “2+4+N” modern industrial system is constantly being optimized and upgraded.
The New Materials Science and Technology Park has ranked second in the country for four consecutive years, and the Biomedical Valley Park has ranked eighth in the country in competitiveness, setting a record high.
In fact, Jiangbei New Area has absolute leading enterprises, including Nanjing Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. and Yangzi Group, which are worth hundreds of billions. There are also a large number of emerging enterprise clusters. The number of unicorns and cultivated unicorns ranks first in the city, with a total of 80 companies .
This is the “ecological energy storage” of future giants.
The latest list of major projects in Jiangsu Province for 2025 has been implemented. Nine projects in Jiangbei New District are included in the provincial list, with a planned investment of 5.06 billion yuan that year, ranking first in the city .
Among them, the Yangzi Petrochemical Technology Upgrading Project with a total investment of 17.3 billion yuan is the only major new 10-billion-level project in Nanjing included in the province .
Now, all this “homework” is going on, but ordinary people may not be very clear. After all, it is not like the library in Jiangbei has been erected, the financial center building has been capped, or the first phase of China Mobile Yangtze River Delta (Nanjing) Science and Technology Innovation Center has begun interior decoration. Although it is so conspicuous, “seeing is believing”, but what is invisible and unperceived is extremely important. The trickle-down trickle-down, long-term success.
“Follow projects, start construction, attract people, and fight for the economy.” To be honest, this kind of momentum is right!
Therefore, in the current Jiangbei New Area, the strategic development is firm and rigid , the realization of urban resources is explicit and timely, and the industry is also truly sustainable. This is the foundation of regional development and the eternal foundation . Continuing motivation .

Don’t just talk about planning, we must emphasize practical implementation.
Jiangbei New District, which is making headlines now, does not always build some tall landmarks, but presents them one by one concretely .
Pukou Railway Station was officially opened and quickly became a popular destination for people’s leisure, vacation, cultural tourism and nostalgia. In just over two months, the number of visitors exceeded 1 million. Many people felt the charm of Zhu Ziqing’s prose in the textbook at the “Back Cafe”. More people lingered.
A large number of people rushed to Jiangbei for the “League of Legends” e-sports event, causing a sensation across the entire network.
The most exaggerated one was Daolang’s concert. Fans and fans from all over the country also came in droves. There were even groups of people singing outside the venue. Netizens across the country “wept with tears at that moment . “
A concert is also a touchstone .
The local residents are extremely proud and thank the police, fire fighters, urban management, and medical staff for their hard work. I wish Jiangbei New District prosperity.”
And outsiders are also full of praise for Jiangbei New District.
If Jiangbei 10 years ago still had a “suburban” feel, the current Jiangbei New District is indeed turned upside down. Media friends who have lived in Hexi for a long time lamented, ” Many places in Jiangbei New District are more Hexi than Hexi .”
There are many new models and new scenes, and more and more of them are being created for the first time in Jiangbei.
This is indeed true.
There are cafes everywhere, and the atmosphere has a romantic and youthful atmosphere. Even in winter, young people are shopping, checking in, communicating and chatting in groups.
Indeed, advanced industries provide a steady stream of jobs, modern and rich businesses, classical historical and cultural blocks, parks and cafes everywhere, and high-quality residential housing prices are not high, which forms a unique Jiangbei New District. Phenomenon:
——High -quality livable place + relatively low cost , “high value and low cost”, one high and one low, forming potential energy. The greater the gap, the stronger the attraction , and finally a strong chemical reaction is formed.
Youthful vitality and friendliness among young people, the pain points of Nanjing, are gradually being overcome by Jiangbei New District.
In Jiangbei New District, where cash is accelerating, there is a vibrant atmosphere even in winter.
This is a touching photo. The attitude of the builders of Jiangbei New Area has nothing to do with gossip and only focuses on “construction.”
This is a young and growing land. No matter how hard you cultivate it, the future will bloom beautifully.
Jiangbei New District is full of firepower and does not play tricks . If it has dreams and vitality, it will have confidence and ambition.
