Huangpu district in Guangzhou, South China, known as the northern pearl in the

Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA), released its latest

promotional video "Enjoy the Wonderful Huangpu" on October 1st.

The video by the Publicity Department of Huangpu District Committee, shown on

outdoor screens of global landmarks such as the New York Times Square in the

United States and Printemps in Paris, France, presents to the world an open hub

with high-quality development, a technological innovation highland and a

livable city.

A new round of high-level opening-up is surging in the GBA. The innovative

Huangpu has become a frontier window for the international community to observe

China's opening-up and international cooperation. With its location advantages,

strong industrial foundation, systematic innovation, entrepreneurship ecology

and talent policies, Huangpu has attracted nearly 200 of the world's top 500

enterprises.

"Huangpu is a successful example of China's reform and opening-up, enterprises

introduced here are world-class and have strong cluster effect. It is an ideal

place for investment," applauded those corporate executives, at the parallel

session of the 2021 Annual Conference on Multinational Corporations Investments

in Guangdong recently held in the Sino-Singapore Knowledge City, Huangpu.

Huangpu is at the forefront of China's opening-up to the world, one of the

nation's earliest areas to receive investment from multinational corporations

and with the highest concentration too. The millennium-old Huangpu Port was

once "the one and only trading port" in China within one hundred years. In

1984, Guangzhou became the country's first batch of coastal open cities, and

Guangzhou Development District, the first batch of National Economic and

Technological Development Zones in China. Today, it has become the main area

for Guangzhou to develop the real economy and strategic emerging industries,

and the innovation source of the GBA, aiming at topping the country as the

strongest industrial zone, with output value of manufacturing industry

exceeding one trillion yuan.

With extraordinary historical charm, openness and innovation and livable

ecology, Huangpu is showing a strong "gravity". "Huangpu is one of the happiest

urban areas in China. Guests from all over the world are welcome and share the

highlights here!" said the head of the Publicity Department.
