新型產業應成為北部灣發展主動力

□ 文/陳麗冰

長期以來，廣西只是利用地方資源發展產業方式，區位與產業之間存在錯配現象。但廣西是沿海延邊的開放地區，區位價值的發揮應該成為產業布局與發展的重要影響因素。

在此背景下，廣西大學商學院經濟研究中心副主任、博士生導師張林教授認為，廣西北部灣經濟區應該借助當前深化改革的“東風”，重點發展經濟區內的南寧高新技術開發區、欽州保稅港區、中馬欽州產業園等特色園區，并著重發展出口加工導向型產業、物流產業、海洋產業以及戰略性新興產業等新型產業，使其成為北部灣經濟區的發展主動力。

轉型增長模式，吸引外來投資

“目前，廣西北部灣經濟區的經濟發展模式還是投資驅動型模式，即政策引導投資，在交通、信息等基礎設施改進和石油化工等重工業方面取得了重大的進步。不過，未來的增長模式是創新引領模式，通過依賴知識密集型經濟發展獲得高附加值。”張林教授說。

近年來，廣西北部灣經濟區經過多年的加快建設，進入了全面開放開發的新階段，但與中國東部發達地區相比，依然存在經濟總量偏小、產業和城市豐滿度低、以及體制機制創新滯后等問題。

因此，張林教授認為，在開放而動態的市場中，廣西北部灣經濟區發展需要對內開放和對外開放相結合，由外延式增長向內涵式增長模式轉變，且隨著北部灣經濟區新門戶新樞紐區位價值的迅速增長，廣西北部灣經濟區在硬件基礎設施建設取得卓越成效時，還應在“一帶一路”的戰略背景下將區位優勢轉化為經濟效益。通過按照市場機制來配置資源，降低在北部灣經濟區投資或者經由北部灣經濟區的運輸成本，以此吸引外來投資者前來投資，從而刺激經濟進一步增長。

“圍繞人的創造力展開知識密集型經濟活動布局規劃，提高北部灣經濟區服務能力、提升經濟運行效率以降低時間成本是未來北部灣經濟區發展的必由之路，而這需要政府按照市場規律進行制度設置和深化改革。”張林教授說。

提升產業專業化，帶動跨越發展

重點產業園區是產業聚集的主平臺，也是廣西北部灣經濟區升級發展的主力軍。2008年，廣西北部灣經濟區的生產總值僅為2219.7億元人民幣，而到了2014年則增長到5448.21億元人民幣。實現這一變化，其中重點產業園區功不可沒。因此，未來北部灣經濟區如要獲得持續快速發展，還需要以重點產業園區為支撐，根據區位優勢發展重點產業，使經濟增長模式實現完美蛻變。

當前，廣西北部灣經濟區有包括南寧高新技術開發區、中馬欽州產業園、北海工業園等在內的29個重點產業園區，并吸引了中石化、中石油、富士康、印尼金光等多家著名大型跨國企業落戶投資，使其成為國內外產業的新聚集地和投資“洼地”。

不過，在這一競相發展過程中，不可避免地出現產業同構現象，影響了區域整體綜合經濟實力和區域對外競爭力。在此背景下，廣西北部灣經濟區將“實行重大產業布局負面清單管理模式，促進園區錯位發展，形成‘一園一特色’”作為重點方向之一進行深化改革，以進一步優化和提升產業布局，實現經濟區的跨越式發展。

對此，張林教授認為，專業化是衡量經濟發展質量的重要指標，園區特色是專業化的重要表現，而錯位發展則是地區之間專業分工合作的重要表現，符合現代經濟發展潮流。目前廣西北部灣經濟區的產業專業化程度較低，需要大力強化產業專業化建設。各園區要圍繞特定產業強化產業專業化建設，而且產業專業化需要三級跳：第一，形成產業規模專業化，在全國具有規模比較優勢；第二，形成產業人力資源專業化，在全國具有人力資源比較優勢，第三，形成產業創新專業化，在全國具有創新領先地位。

此外，他還表示，廣西的區位與產業之間也存在錯配現象，長期以來只是利用地方資源發展產業方式。但廣西是沿海延邊的開放地區，區位價值的發揮應該成為產業布局與發展的重要影響因素。因此，廣西北部灣經濟區的各重點園區應該大力強化出口加工導向型產業、臨海型工業、大型裝備制造業、物流產業、海洋產業、戰略性新興產業的發展，為建立“資源、產品兩頭在外”型經濟體系做貢獻，這也是促進廣西產業轉型、嵌入全球經濟的重要步驟。

發揮海洋優勢，實現完美蛻變

廣西北部灣擁有大陸海岸線1595公里，海洋生物、礦產資源豐富，是中國著名的四大熱帶漁場之一。當前，又值2015中國—東盟海洋合作年，這對正在努力推動海洋經濟的北部灣經濟區來說無疑是趕上了一個好時機，發展海洋產業恰逢其時。

具有得天獨厚優勢的北部灣經濟區應以海洋、港口、航運等方面的產業發展為依托，大力發展海產品加工業、海洋養殖業等優勢產業，同時發揮北部灣經濟區面向東盟的平臺優勢，促進企業走出去。

“2015年是中國—東盟海洋合作年，廣西北部灣經濟區不僅可以借此機會擴大海產品、油氣資源的進出口份額，促進相應的海洋加工產業的發展，同時這也是廣西北部灣經濟區漁業養殖產業走出去的最佳時機，以充分利用東盟各國的沿海海域和灘涂進行養殖，實現珍珠、海產品等海洋產業走出去戰略。”張林教授說。

在他看來，北部灣海域水質優良，海洋資源豐富，擁有優質的漁業資源和巨大的油氣資源。而且，目前北欽防三市已經具備了相應規模的漁業、珍珠、油氣等海洋產業，并具有較大的市場規模，品牌效應良好。在此背景下，擁有廣闊海域和豐富海洋資源的北部灣經濟區應乘風發力，謀求新一輪的經濟騰飛。

2008年，廣西北部灣經濟區的生產總值僅為2219.7億元人民幣

2014年，廣西北部灣經濟區的生產總值增長到5448.21億元人民幣。

For a long time, Guangxi’s industrial development only relies on local resources, and there is a mismatch between its location advantage and industries. As a coastal and border area, Guangxi should depend on its location value to facilitate its industrial distribution and development.

In such a context, Professor Zhang Lin, Deputy Director of the Economic Research Center of the School of Business at Guangxi University believed that, the Beibu Gulf Economic Zone (BGEZ) should take the opportunity of the current in-depth reform, lay emphasis on its featured industrial parks including Nanning Hi-tech Industrial Development

Zone, Qinzhou Free Trade Port Area and China-Malaysia (Qinzhou) Industrial Park, and focus on its export processing industries, logistics industries, marine industries and strategic emerging industries, trying to make them the main impetus for the development of the BGEZ.

Transfer Growth Modes to Attract Foreign Investment

“At present, the economic development in the BGEZ is investmentdriven, i.e., policy-led investment. Significant progress has been made in transportation and information construction, as well as petrochemical engineering. In the future, the BGEZ would rely on knowledge-intensive economy to obtain high addedvalue, and the growth mode would be innovation-led”, said Mr. Zhang Lin.

In recent years, the BGEZ has entered a new stage of overall opening-up after years of accelerated construction. However, compared with China’s developed regions in the east, the BGEZ still lags behind them in economic aggregate, industrial and city development, as well as system and mechanism innovation.

In this connection, Mr. Zhang Lin believed, in an open and dynamic market, the BGEZ needs to combine the inward and outward opening-up, shift from extensional growth to connotative growth.

In addition, in the strategic context of “One Belt and One Road”, the BGEZ should transfer its location value to economic benefits when hardware infrastructure construction has achieved marked effects. It should reduce the costs to invest there via market-based distribution of resources, so as to attract investment and stimulate the further growth of economy. “What the BGEZ must do in the future is to focus on creativity to develop knowledge-intensive economy and raise its service ability and economic operation effi ciency, which requires the government to lay out relevant systems and carry out in-depth reforms based on market discipline”, said Mr. Zhang.

Elevate Industrial Professionalization and Realize Leaping Development

Key industrial parks are the main platforms for industry agglomeration and the main force for the upgrading of BGEZ. In 2008, the gross output value of BGEZ was only 221.97 billion yuan; while in 2014, the number reached 544.821 billion yuan. This change could be attributed to those key industrial parks. Hence, if the BGEZ wants to maintain such rapid development, it needs to focus on major industrial parks, and develop its key industries by utilizing its location advantages, so as to make a perfect transformation in economic growth.

Currently, the BGEZ houses 29 key industrial parks including Nanning Hitech Industrial Development Zone, China-Malaysia (Qinzhou) Industrial Park and Beihai Industrial Park has attracted several large-scale transnational enterprises such as Sinopec, PetroChina, Foxconn and Sinar Mas Group, making itself the new gathering place of industries at home and abroad.

In 2008, the gross output value of BGEZ was only 221.97 billion yuan;

While in 2014, the number reached 544.821 billion yuan. This change could be attributed to those key industrial parks.

However, in such a competition process, industrial isomorphism is inevitable, which has affected the region’s overall comprehensive economic strength and external competitiveness. Against such background, the BGEZ will implement negative list in the planning of major industries to promote the diversified development of industrial parks and form their own features, so as to further optimize and upgrade industrial distribution and realize leaping development in economy.

With regard to this, Mr. Zhang Lin believed that professionalization is an important indicator to measure economic development, which is manifested by the unique features of industrial parks. And the diversifi ed development displays the cooperation and division of labor among diff erent areas, which confi rms to the development of modern economy. Now, industries in the BGEZ have a low level of professionalization. Industrial parks in the region should focus on specifi c industries to strengthen industrial professionalization via three progressive steps: fi rst, to achieve professionalization in industrial scale and form a comparative advantage nationwide; second, to realize professionalization in human resources and form a comparative advantage nationwide; third, to form professionalization in industrial innovation so as to take a lead nationwide.

In addition, Mr. Zhang claimed, there is a mismatch between Guangxi’s location advantage and its industries. For a long time, Guangxi’s industrial development only relies on local resources. As a coastal and border area, Guangxi should depend on its location value to facilitate its industrial distribution and development. Therefore, major industrial parks in the BGEZ must strengthen their export processing industries, sea-bordering industries, large-scale equipment manufacturing industries, logistics industries, marine industries and strategic emerging industries, contributing to establishing an economic system featured by “having both resources and products on the world market”. This is also an important step to promote industrial transformation in Guangxi and help its industries to enter into world economy.

Utilize Maritime Advantages to Realize Transformation

With a coastline of 1,595 km, the Beibu Gulf abounds in marine organisms and mineral resources, being one of the four famous tropical fisheries in China. As 2015 is designated as the Year of China-ASEAN Maritime Cooperation, it is the right time for BGEZ to develop its maritime economy.

The BGEZ, with god-given advantages, should rely on ocean, port and shipping industries, strive to develop sea products processing industries and marine aquaculture industries, and make use of the BGEZ, the ASEAN-oriented platform, to encourage enterprises to go global.

“2015 is the Year of China-ASEAN Maritime Cooperation. The BGEZ could take this opportunity to expand its imports and exports of marine products as well as oil and gas resources, and promote relevant processing industries. At the same time, it could make full use of the sea areas of the ASEAN countries and help its marine industries like pearl and sea products industries go global”, said Mr. Zhang Lin.

In his opinion, the Beibu Gulf, with high quality water and rich marine resources, enjoys superior fishery resources and huge oil and gas resources. Now, Beihai, Qinzhou and Fangchenggang possess well-developed fishery, pearl, as well as oil and gas industries, which boast comparatively large markets and good brand eff ects. In such a context, the BGEZ should seize the opportunity and pursue a new round of economic take-off .

New Industries Should be the Main Impetus for the Development of Beibu Gulf
