The Yangtze River Delta refers to the delta formed by the alluvial deposits of the Yangtze River and Qiantang River where they enter the sea. Including southeastern Jiangsu Province and Shanghai City, and northeastern Zhejiang Province. It is part of the plains of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. The area is about 50,000 square kilometers. Economically, it refers to the economic belt of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, led by Shanghai. This is the economic sector with the fastest economic development, the largest economic aggregate, and the most development potential in my country. The Yangtze River Delta is a concept with multiple meanings. Geographical concept: Where the Yangtze River flows into the sea, a low, flat, roughly triangular piece of land is formed due to the continuous accumulation of sediment contained in the river water. The Yangtze River runs from west to east toward the sea for thousands of miles. The water of the river surges down, and the sediment it carries continues to accumulate at the mouth of the sea. After thousands of years of vicissitudes, it finally forms a broad and broad triangular land. Industrial economic concept: Jiangsu and Zhejiang economic belts with Shanghai as the leader. This is the economic sector with the fastest economic development, the largest economic aggregate, and the most development potential in my country. The GDP in 2008 was RMB 5,395.291 billion. A total of US$787.71249 billion. Statistics from 2004 show that the Yangtze River Delta accounts for 1% of the country's land and 5.8% of the country's population, creating 18.7% of the country's GDP, 22% of the country's fiscal revenue and 18.4% of its foreign trade exports. The international capital and private capital that are rapidly accumulating in the Yangtze River Delta are not only growing in scale, but also powerfully promoting the rapid economic development of this region with its unique vitality. According to statistics, from January to September 2003, the GDP of Suzhou, Hangzhou, Wuxi, and Ningbo each exceeded 100 billion yuan, with an increase of more than 12% in the same period. The GDP of Shanghai exceeded 390 billion yuan. , a year-on-year increase of more than 10%. This high-speed economic growth, 3 to 5 percentage points higher than the national growth rate over the same period, has been maintained in the Yangtze River Delta region for many years. In this most fertile land in China, large-scale urban agglomerations full of vitality are constantly rising: the "super giant" Shanghai, whose annual GDP has exceeded 1 trillion yuan, ranking first in the country; the "heavyweight giant" Suzhou, Hangzhou, Wuxi, Ningbo, and Nanjing have an annual GDP of 200 to 500 billion yuan; the "little giants" Shaoxing, Nantong, Changzhou, Taizhou, Jiaxing, Xuzhou, and Wenzhou have an annual GDP of more than 200 billion yuan. The county economy that brings richness and layering to the "Yangtze River Delta" metropolitan area is extremely competitive. In the competitiveness ranking of the top 100 counties and cities in the country announced in November 2008, seven counties and cities (districts) in the "Yangtze River Delta" ranked among the top ten. The rise of the county economy has made it possible for cities in the “Yangtze River Delta” to become contiguous and urbanized. This group of economic giants has directly attracted the attention of many world-class economic giants. At present, more than 400 of the world's top 500 companies have settled in this area. Among them, more than 200 have set up regional headquarters and China headquarters in Shanghai. 81 companies have invested in Suzhou alone, with 188 investment projects. According to incomplete statistics, the cumulative foreign investment contracted in this region has reached nearly 150 billion US dollars; the Yangtze River Delta has become a powerful magnetic field attracting international capital and technology. In the "Yangtze River Delta" metropolitan area, enterprises, which are the main force in economic development, dominate. Nearly half of the top 100 counties in the country are concentrated here, and there are nearly 100 industrial parks with an annual industrial output value of more than 10 billion yuan, including Wanxiang Group, Jinshan Petrochemical, Yangzi Ethylene, Volkswagen, Shanghai Bell, Eastern Communications, etc. Thousands of giant companies including. Most of these enterprises are large in scale, strong in strength, their product market share ranks among the best in the country, and they occupy a place in the international market. Shanghai is one of the international economic, financial, trade and shipping centers, driving the development of the "Yangtze River Delta" region and the entire Yangtze River Basin. The 2010 World Expo took place in Shanghai, which brought good opportunities to Shanghai in all aspects. Shanghai is striving to become a "world city". The strong radiation power of Shanghai and the rapid development of its surrounding "waterfront" cities have made all cities in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces aware of the importance of regional cooperation. Other cities are also striving to find their own urban positioning, in terms of capital, Opportunities for the rise of cities can be found in the flow of information, talents, and commodities. Integrating with Shanghai, achieving win-win results, and promoting economic integration in the Yangtze River Delta have become the common sense of governments in the Yangtze River Delta region.

Suzhou: close to the water, with layout along the four sides; Wuxi: integrating into integration and seeking new development; Nanjing: echoing Shanghai and radiating to surrounding areas; Hangzhou: integrating with Shanghai and developing in a dislocated manner. Cities surrounding the "Yangtze River Delta" unanimously regard linkage with Shanghai as an important strategy. Taking the planning and construction of road and bridge transportation networks as an opportunity, the Yangtze River Delta is building a "3-hour economic circle." The trend of great integration has begun. Projects in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai have involved transportation, tourism, exhibitions, talents, technology, information, trademarks, credit, quality inspection, environmental protection and other fields, and are currently exploring industrial planning, policies and regulations, financial services, etc. High-level cooperation linkage. And "connecting with Shanghai" has also gone beyond the meaning of a simple investment platform. The integration of the "Yangtze River Delta" is a microcosm of China's economic globalization after its accession to the WTO. The existence of a large number of foreign companies has greatly increased the degree of economic internationalization in the "Yangtze River Delta" region. The entire "Yangtze River Delta" is becoming the "world's factory", and "Made in China" products are continuously going to the world from here. The Yangtze River Delta is the largest region open to the outside world in my country. The region has a strong industrial foundation, a developed commodity economy, and convenient water and land transportation. It is the largest foreign trade export base in the country. The Yangtze River is one of my country's economic open zones. Formation The delta base is part of the Yangtze quasi-platform, and subsidence was interrupted by the Himalayan tectonic movement. During the Quaternary neotectonic movement, the crust and sea level rose and fell frequently. After the last major transgression, the sediment carried by the Yangtze River continued to be deposited, and deltas began to develop at the river mouth. Due to the Coriolis force, the main river flow continues to deflect to the right, causing the sand groups at the river mouth to merge into the north bank. The sandbars and sandbar groups formed during the Hongqiao Period, Huangqiao Period, Jinsha Period, Haimen Period, and Beisha Period formed Yancheng, the largest alluvial plain city on the north bank of the Yangtze River today, as well as Hanjiang, Taixing, Jingjiang, Rugao, Rudong, and Nantong. , Haimen and Qidong counties. Chongming, Changxing, Hengsha and other sand islands near the river mouth will also be merged into the north coast according to this rule. The river mouth sand spit is also extended simultaneously. The sand spit on the north bank extends to the northern boundary of today's delta, with a ground elevation of 6 to 8 meters. The sand spit on the south bank extends eastward through Jiangyin, Taicang, Waigang and Maqiao, with a ground elevation of about 4.5 to 6 meters, and connects with the north bank of the Qiantang River before reaching Hangzhou Bay. The shallow bay inside the sand spit was silted up and became the predecessor of ancient Taihu Lake. Since then, the shallow-water bay has continued to become shallower and gradually evolved into a low plain with lakes and interlaced rivers. The coastal area outside the sand spit on the south coast continues to accumulate and form a coastal plain. There are a series of residual hills scattered on the delta with an altitude of 100 to 300 meters. Most of them are composed of Devonian sandstone and Carboniferous and Permian limestone. A few are composed of Yanshanian granite and trachyte. Cities included in the Yangtze River Delta region: Shanghai, Jiangsu Province: Nanjing, Xuzhou, Lianyungang, Huai'an, Suqian, Wuxi, Changzhou, Suzhou, Nantong, Yancheng, Yangzhou, Zhenjiang, Taizhou, Zhejiang Province: Hangzhou, Ningbo, Wenzhou, Quzhou, Lishui, Shaoxing, Jiaxing, Taizhou, Huzhou, Zhoushan, Jinhua
