After a summer rain, the yellow earth is filled with the fragrance of grass. Cai Wenming, a 62-year-old villager from Duan Village, Sengnian Town, Fenxi County, Linfen City, drove his sheep up the mountain early in the morning. Since the beginning of spring, new life has been born in Cai Wenming’s sheepfold from time to time. The number of cashmere goats has increased from 90 to 116. The little lambs that are alive and kicking make people happy to see them.
Duan Village used to be a deeply impoverished village. Around 2007, the villagers moved from the old village under the slope to the current new village. However, due to the barren land, drought and water shortage, there were 275 registered poor households in the village in 2014.
In June 2017, General Secretary Xi Jinping presided over a symposium on poverty alleviation in deeply impoverished areas in Taiyuan, listened to reports on the progress of poverty alleviation, and focused on researching strategies to solve deep poverty. Since the beginning of that year, Shanxi has focused on targeted implementation of policies in deeply impoverished areas. About 30% of the central and provincial financial poverty alleviation funds are invested in deeply impoverished counties every year.

Li Wenzhi, a villager in Xingsheng Village, Yunzhou District, Datong City, lost his ability to work due to an accident. Before he was discharged from the hospital, the early warning system detected his abnormal medical insurance and expenditure, and issued an early warning, and cadres at the township and village levels immediately began to help him. During this period, I also handled insurance claims assistance through ‘Yunzhou Anti-Poverty Treasure’, which reduced the burden on my family to the greatest extent.” Li Wenzhi said.
Shanxi insists on using more than 80% of fiscal expenditures for people’s livelihood, and strengthens the construction of people’s livelihood that is inclusive, basic and fundamental. Starting from 2021, Shanxi will implement a supplementary endowment insurance system for urban and rural residents, of which about 3 million residents over the age of 65 can directly enjoy policy dividends, improving the security level of low-income seniors.
Promote transformation through reform and innovation
Shanxi is prosperous in coal, but also trapped in coal. Due to the long-term single industry, it once encountered the pain of industrial structure imbalance, serious ecological damage and economic cliff-like decline.
In the new era, the CPC Central Committee has given Shanxi the major task of building a comprehensive reform pilot zone for the transformation of the national resource-based economy. Shanxi has become the country’s first province-wide, all-round and systematic pilot zone for comprehensive reform of the national resource-based economy transformation.
Since 2012, the construction of the Shanxi Transformation and Comprehensive Reform Pilot Zone has entered the stage of full implementation, and traditional industries have taken the lead in transformation. In 2014, Shanxi launched a low-carbon innovation initiative to promote the green development of black coal. During the “Thirteenth Five-Year Plan” period, Shanxi has resolved a total of 156.85 million tons of excess coal production capacity, and a large number of mines with exhausted resources, no hope of turning losses, and backward production capacity have withdrawn from the stage of history. At the same time, Shanxi is striving to be the “pioneer” of intelligent, green and safe coal mining, and the proportion of advanced coal production capacity has increased from less than 30% in 2016 to more than 75% today.

In the dispatching command center of Xinyuan Coal Mine of Lu’an Chemical Group, the staff clicked the mouse, and the fully mechanized mining equipment such as underground shearers and transporters were running one after another. “In the past, if there was a problem in the mine, it might stop work for several days. Now that the underground equipment fails, the video phone can go directly to the equipment manufacturer for remote diagnosis.” Ji Jie, director of the 5G + intelligent mine construction office of Xinyuan Coal Mine, said that the country’s first 5G mine will be built in 2020. So far, coal mines have expanded to 31 5G application scenarios, making coal mining safer and more efficient.
Similar to the intelligent mining face of Xinyuan Coal Mine, 548 coal mines have been built in Shanxi, and 23 coal mines have achieved 5G access. Since the commercial use of 5G in 2019, Shanxi has accelerated the construction of intelligent coal mines, and jointly established the “Intelligent Mine Innovation Laboratory” with Huawei, and established the first scientific research and innovation artificial intelligence computing center in the national coal industry. Coal mine empowerment.
The global energy supply has been tight since last year, and Shanxi’s ability to ensure coal supply has withstood the test in this high-intensity “stress test”: last year’s production increased by 113 million tons, contributing more than 60% of the country’s coal increase; this year plans to increase production by 1 More than 100 million tons, and give full play to the role of coal “ballast stone”.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Shanxi has insisted on promoting transformation and development through reform and innovation. The added value of non-coal industries has continued to grow faster than the coal industry. The number of high-tech enterprises has increased from 290 in 2012 to 3,553 in 2021. A number of strategic emerging industries such as semiconductors and carbon-based new materials are developing rapidly.
“I didn’t expect the park to provide us with a 100,000-level dust-free workshop. It only took two months from the start of construction to the trial operation. The local area also provides a preferential electricity price of 0.3 yuan/kWh for enterprises like us.” Carbon Equation Wang Xin, general manager of New Materials (Shanxi) Co., Ltd., said that the company’s R&D team is located in Shenzhen, but the industrial base is located in Shanxi.

Seize the opportunity to promote opening up
Dingxiang County, Xinzhou City, located at the foot of Mount Wutai, is known as the “Hometown of Forging in China”. Before 2017, although there were more than 100 flange manufacturing companies with independent export rights, and their products were exported to more than 40 countries and regions, they lacked a foreign trade service platform and could only be shipped to Tianjin Port before going through export procedures.
Not along the border, not along the river, not close to the sea, and lack of openness are one of the reasons that restrict the development of Shanxi. Seizing the new opportunities brought by the new development pattern, Shanxi has actively integrated into the national strategy since 2017, actively participated in the construction of the “Belt and Road”, and proposed the goal of building a new highland for opening up in the inland region, and launched the first China-Europe class that year. List.

In January 2018, in the Shanxi AEON International Logistics Park located in Dingxiang County, the bonded warehouse and export supervision warehouse were completed and put into operation, and the export business of Dingxiang flange was handled on the spot, which not only reduced the logistics cost, but also stored the warehouse first. Tax deferral. In recent years, Dingxiang County has built a national flange forging product quality supervision and inspection center, established an academician and expert workstation, and actively expanded international cooperation.
Data show that from 2012 to 2021, Shanxi’s economy has doubled in size, and its total import and export volume has increased by more than 10 times. At present, Shanxi operates 9 China-Europe and Central-Asia international logistics routes on a regular basis, reaching 27 cities in 12 countries. There are 137 of the world‘s top 500 companies investing in Shanxi, and the degree of economic export has been significantly improved.

Since last year, Shanxi has seized the national new-type urbanization strategy and the strategic opportunity of promoting the rise of the central region to build a “double engine” of Shanxi’s transformation and comprehensive reform demonstration zone and Taixin Economic Zone, and promote the construction of high-quality urban circles in northern, southern and southeastern Shanxi. , accelerate the aggregation of innovation elements and enhance regional competitiveness. At the same time, it actively grows outward, deeply integrates into the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, actively connects with the Yangtze River Delta, Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and expands cooperation in inter-provincial border areas such as Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Mongolia, and becomes an active force in regional cooperation.
Following the direction of General Secretary Xi Jinping, Shanxi adheres to long-term strategic planning, focuses on high-quality transformation and development, does a solid job in ensuring and improving people’s livelihood, and writes a new chapter in Shanxi’s practice of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era with a new forward attitude.
