Strong development strength: Zichuan Economic Development Zone has been awarded as "2021 Top 100 Industrial Parks in Asia for Business Environment", "Top 100 Development Zones with Comprehensive Strength in China", "China Science and Technology Innovation Demonstration Development Zone", and "Top 100 Innovative Industrial Parks in China", "National Science and Technology Support Plan Project Demonstration Base", "Best Investment Park in Shandong Province", "Provincial High-end Equipment Manufacturing Industrial Park", and "Provincial Civilized Unit"; It was awarded the "National Transformation and Upgrading Demonstration Park" by 5 ministries and commissions including the National Development and Reform Commission; it was approved as the "National New Energy Industry Base", "National Digital Smart Park", "Shandong Province New Industrialization Industry Demonstration Base", "Provincial Auto and Parts Quality Product Production Base", etc.

Strong industrial foundation: There are 1,416 enterprises, 2 colleges and universities (Zibo Normal College and Water Conservancy College) in Zichuan Development Zone, including 157 enterprises above designated size, 8 of them Fortune 500 enterprises. It has won 1 first prize and 6 second prizes of the National Science and Technology Progress Award. It has 4 listed companies including Luthai Textile, Jincheng Pharmaceutical, Geely Automobile and Torch Energy, and 28 listed and trustee companies on the New Third Board and Qilu Equity Exchange Center.

Long cultural heritage: The development zone is the hometown of Su Qin, a political strategist of the Warring States Period, Zhang Zhifa, chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty, and Pu Songling, the king of short stories in the world. Their traditional qualities of "harmony without uniformity", "respect for talent the merit", "reform, openness, pragmatism, tolerance and innovation" are the spiritual core of Zichuan Economic Development Zone seeking development, cooperation and daring to make breakthroughs.

Industry Planning

In accordance with the planning requirements of  "Top Ten Industries" of Shandong and "Four Strong Industries" of Zibo City, Zichuan Economic Development Zone integrates the industrial base, highlights its unique advantages, and focuses on the development of the 231 industrial system centered on new energy vehicles and modern logistics.

Automotive industry sector. With Geely Automobile as the core, create the development framework of "1 core and 4 parks", and make a 100 billion-level automobile and parts industry map. "1 core": With the Geely production base as the core, plan to build a 2,000-mu vehicle industry base. " 4 parks": build a supporting park consisting of four professional industrial parks, namely Seven Star Green Intelligent Manufacturing, Yunshang Intelligent Manufacturing, Taizhan Industrial Automation, and Zhongyi Advanced Manufacturing. Priority will be given to the entry of Geely's upstream and downstream supporting enterprises and high-quality auto parts manufacturing enterprises.

Modern logistics sector. Taking Haier Xinxing Logistics Highway Port as the core, on the basis of the construction of the second-phase logistics base, 1,000 mu of land will be vacated to further attract large logistics companies to settle in, enhance the throughput capacity of the logistics park for bulk cargo transportation, promote the integration of modern logistics + manufacturing, and realize "logistics empowerment" to build a modern logistics center in central Shandong.

Support industrial bearing sector.

Based on the existing 16 industrial parks, reorganize the parks, expand the biomedical industrial park, integrate the three biopharmaceutical parks of Jincheng, Hongzhuang and Zichuan, and promote the implementation of the Phase II projects of Simbainuo, Yimei and Hongzhuang. With Torch Energy as the core, around Mingtai and Jinkeli, we will do a good job in the layout of the new energy industry, and advance to the tens of billions of clusters. Led by Lulian New Materials, we will speed up the construction of Shanneng New Materials Industrial Park, integrate the new materials industry in the jurisdiction, and build a tens of billions of industrial bases.

Headquarters economic sector. The central CBD project will be launched in the near future, and efforts will be made to create a national-level development zone. provinces and cities strive to come up with relevant policies, to attract advantageous enterprises to set up headquarters in the development zone and strive to achieve development.
