In December 2012, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader left Beijing for his first inspection after the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and came here to present a flower basket to the bronze statue of Deng Xiaoping standing on the top of the mountain. Overlooking the prosperity of Shenzhen, the Supreme Leader said with emotion that we have come to pay tribute to the bronze statue of Deng Xiaoping to show that we will unswervingly push forward the reform and opening up, and strive to make new progress, achieve new breakthroughs and take a new step in the reform, opening up and modernization.
Reform and opening up is the root and soul of Guangdong, and it is also the mission and responsibility of Guangdong. Guangdong keeps in mind the entrustment, unswervingly adheres to reform and opening up, and provides strong momentum for high-quality development to be at the forefront of the country.
During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, Guangdong solidly promoted 18 major reform tasks and achieved results, taking the lead in promoting 13 creative and leading reform tasks to make breakthroughs. The list of provincial powers and responsibilities was greatly reduced from 5,567 to 1,069, and 1,220 certification items were cancelled, forming a number of Guangdong experiences and achievements that can be used for reference by the whole country.
It is a great strategic opportunity for Guangdong’s reform and opening-up in the new era to promote the construction of pilot demonstration zones in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and Socialism with Chinese characteristics.
In recent years, Guangdong has promoted the construction of "two zones" with the strength of the whole province, pushed forward the reform and opening up in depth, and accelerated the grand blueprint into a beautiful reality with practical actions.
"I have been starting a business here for 6 years, and I have not only gained like-minded partners and a stage for dreaming, but also the scale of the company has gradually grown. You can feel the pulse of the times here. " Macau youth Zhou Yunxian is the CEO of Zhuhai Hengqin Cross-border Network Technology Co., Ltd. He said that with the continuous strengthening of reforms, the institutional convergence between the mainland and Hong Kong and Macao has been continuously strengthened. In recent years, the number of young people from Hong Kong and Macao who come to work and live in the Pearl River Delta has obviously increased.
With the opening of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, the promotion of the Shenzhen-China Passage and other projects, the implementation of customs clearance facilitation policies such as "one-stop customs clearance", "cooperative inspection and one-time release", and the landing of pilot projects such as "cross-border wealth management" business and facilitation of foreign exchange receipts and payments, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao are accelerating the realization of seamless links in hardware and software. Greater Bay Area’s "one-hour life circle" has basically taken shape and has become a hot spot for many young people in Hong Kong and Macao to dream.
After these years’ efforts, the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has achieved remarkable results in stages, and the construction of a world-class bay area and a world-class urban agglomeration has taken solid steps. In 2021, Greater Bay Area entered 25 Fortune 500 companies, 8 more than in 2017; There are over 60,000 high-tech enterprises in Guangdong, most of which are located in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, a net increase of more than 20,000 compared with 2017. Greater Bay Area’s comprehensive strength has been significantly enhanced, the cooperation between Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao has deepened, and the people in the three places have gained a more substantial sense of gain.
The construction of Shenzhen Pioneer Demonstration Zone is also in full swing. At present, 11 of the 56 key tasks deployed in the Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Supporting Shenzhen to Build a Pilot Demonstration Zone in Socialism with Chinese characteristics have been completed, 45 of them have made significant progress in the preparation of Ocean University, and 47 experiences and practices in five aspects have been promoted throughout the country. The pilot work of comprehensive reform in Shenzhen has made important progress in stages, and the first batch of 40 authorized items have all landed, further demonstrating the leading role.

2018年10月24日，最高领袖总书记在北站社区视察时强调，要把更多资源、服务、管理放到社区，为居民提供精准化、精细化服务。
"The community is small, but it is connected to thousands of households." This sentence has been hung on the wall of the community service center of North Station. In recent years, community party committees have insisted on grasping the grassroots level, strengthening the foundation, and covering the whole area, constantly doing fine community governance and residents’ services, and building a happy home with wisdom, universal sharing and great harmony.
"We explore ‘ Party building+science and technology+governance ’ In October 2019, we will build a community-level wisdom command center, take the lead in piloting and running the information platform of party building leading grassroots governance, and realize ‘ One-screen comprehensive perception, one-click response, one-screen real-time scheduling, and all-way escort safety ’ 。” Zheng Yang, Party Secretary of North Station Community, said.
Grassroots governance, the world is safe. Focusing on the modernization of the governance system and governance capacity, Guangdong has continuously improved the pattern of building, co-governing and sharing social governance, and strived to make the people’s sense of gain more complete, happiness more sustainable and security more secure.
In Yunfu, the pilot work of the modernization of social governance in the city explored a new path of "1+1+N" based on big data and in line with local conditions, giving key enterprises "one enterprise, one yard" and "one household, one yard" to accurately manage services and improve the accuracy of information management of floating population.
In Shanwei, a database of people, things, places, things and organizations was initially built in the "map of people’s feelings", and a "Tian-shaped" grass-roots governance system was constructed with "town, village and group" in the horizontal direction and "big data+grid+mass line" in the vertical direction.
Through "internet plus Grid", Guangdong is widely empowering grassroots governance with big data, cloud computing, Internet of Things and other technologies, constantly optimizing the standardization and governance functions of grassroots governance, and solving the problems of "unwillingness" and "inconvenience" for people to participate in grassroots governance.
Empowering grassroots governance requires establishing a sound talent system. Since 2017, Guangdong Province has explored the use of professional social workers to enrich the grassroots people’s livelihood service force, and built 407 town (street) social work stations in the province to achieve 100% coverage of social work service stations (points) in the province, and 100% coverage of social work services for people in need and special groups. Get through the "last mile" of serving the masses.
At the same time, Guangdong has successively launched a series of institutional arrangements, such as supporting and developing volunteer service organizations, unifying the province’s volunteer service information platform, promoting industry and student volunteer service, encouraging volunteers to be trustworthy, and establishing the system of registering members as volunteers, so as to provide strong institutional support and guarantee for volunteer service.
With the vigorous development of voluntary service organizations, in Guangdong, there are more than 100,000 voluntary service organizations spontaneously established by villages, communities, schools and enterprises, and more than 340,000 voluntary service projects initiated by social organizations.

Huang Binmin, deputy director of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, introduced 2018— In 2020, the financial arrangement of Guangdong Province is 7.5 billion yuan to support the construction of industrial parks, from 2021— In 2023, we will continue to arrange 7.5 billion yuan to build a modern agricultural industrial park version 2.0. "At present, the province has created 18 national, 288 provincial and 73 municipal modern agricultural industrial parks, and the number of national and provincial modern agricultural industrial parks ranks first in the country."

In recent years, Guangdong provincial finance has invested more than 96.6 billion yuan in rural human settlements improvement and infrastructure construction, such as "toilet revolution", domestic sewage and garbage treatment. At present, 1,316 characteristic boutique villages and 12,214 beautiful livable villages have been established respectively.
With the full implementation of the rural revitalization strategy, Guangdong Province proposed to build a pilot demonstration zone with the central village as the node and the Wei town as the hub, connecting points into lines, connecting pieces into pieces, and collecting pieces into strips, and simultaneously promoting rural development, rural construction and rural governance, which in turn led to the comprehensive revitalization of the rural area.
At present, Guangdong has started to build 487 demonstration belts, with an initial completion of 3,420 kilometers. Five inter-provincial corridors, such as Zhaoqing Fengkai, have been built in the whole province, and more than 200 beautiful countryside scenic belts and more than 570 beautiful countryside boutique routes, such as Guangzhou "Flowers in Yangnian", Foshan "Hundred Miles of Fanghua", Maoming "Wonderful 100 Miles", Shanwei "Oyster Love" and Lufeng "Binhai Corridor", have been built.
