Author:Look at the think tank Time:2022.08.31

The Pinglu Canal, which is connected to the Xijiang River Basin and the Beibu Gulf, in China. On August 28th, a construction mobilization conference was held in Magao Hub, Lingshan County, Lingshan County, Qinzhou City, Guangxi, marking the construction of this century -old century project.

More than two thousand years ago, the artificial canal, known as the "Pearl of the World Ancient Water Conservancy Buildings" in Guilin, Guangxi, communicated with the water system of the Yangtze River and the Pearl River, and became a water transportation hub connecting the Central Plains and Lingnan area. Lingqu opened a passage to the Central Plains to overseas, and the ancient and excellent farming culture of China spread to overseas through Lingqu. More than two thousand years later, can the construction of the Pinglu Canal play an important role like Lingqu and revitalize the development of southwestern China? After the operation of the Pinglu Canal, will the "Yijiang Spring Water" flowing south of the Beibu Gulf waters south will create a rich Beibu Gulf like the Yangtze River and the Pearl River? As a result, it has become another pole of China's coastal development comparable to the Pearl River Delta and the Yangtze River Delta?

The original title was "Whether the excavation of the Pinglu Canal with more than 72 billion investment can create a new one -pole development of China's coastal development. Intersection ", Does not mean looking at the view of the think tank.

From dream to reality

Although the construction of the construction of the Pinglu Canal is approaching, on August 26, Jiangkou Street, Pingtang Village, Xinfang, Xijinku District, Hengzhou City, Nanning, August 26, is calm as usual. As the starting point of the Pinglu Canal, it was an important salt port in Guangxi in ancient times. It was developed and the businessmen gathered. There were salt administration institutions and stations. With the development of the society, the inland water has shrunk, and the bustling town of enjoying a party has become increasingly declining: the old street is empty, the tower is mottled, and the ferry is lonely.

And all this, with the start of the Land of the Canal, is quietly changing. Lei Weishu, who is over seventies of Pingtang Village, said: "After the construction of the Pinglu Canal, traffic is convenient." Lei Weishu believes that it will restore the prosperity of the past. The residents of Jiangkou Old Street are preparing for the opening of farmhouses and hotels to use the nostalgia culture of the fishing village to attract the attention of the outside world.

As the backbone project of the New Land and Sea New Channel, the Pinglu Canal began in the Pingtang River Estuary of Xijinku District, Hengzhou City, Nanning, Guangxi. Excavation is about 6.5 kilometers. Construction content includes channel engineering, shipping hub projects, cross -river facilities along the line, and supporting engineering. The channel grade is in the river -level I and can navigate 5,000 tons of ships. The total investment of the project is 72.73 billion yuan, and the construction period is 54 months.

"Building the Pinglu Canal, only at the" Dream "level in the early days." Chen Hongqi, secretary of the Party Group of the Communications Department of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, said in an interview with the media that after the founding of the New China, although the Pinglu Canal project has gone through twists and turns, it is always step by step to step by step. Promote. Since 1985, especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Pinglu Canal has been included in relevant national planning. In 2018, the Pinglu Canal finally entered the substantive operation level from "dream".

The real key node appeared in 2019. At that time, the Pinglu Canal Research demonstration was included in the "General Plan for the New Channel of the Western Land and Sea". Since then, the Pinglu Canal Project has been included in the national "Fourteenth Five -Year Plan" outline and the "National Comprehensive Three -dimensional Transportation Network Planning Outline". Liu Ning, Secretary of the Party Committee of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, who has served in the Ministry of Water Resources, has presided over 12 meetings to study and guide the planning and construction of the Pinglu Canal since its performance in Guangxi in October 2021.

In 2022, the preliminary preparation work of the Pinglu Canal was accelerated. In March of this year, the Pinglu Canal Project officially established items. In less than half a year, the project's pre -review, environmental assessment, project water resource demonstration, Pinglu Canal project feasibility research report, and project seas were successively approved. At this point, Century Engineering Pinglu Canal project sounded the assembly number.

Open Guangxi's "Ren Du two pulses"

After the completion of the Pinglu Canal, it will shorten the range of more than 560 kilometers in the middle and upstream areas of the Xijiang River. It will fundamentally change the water transportation pattern of Guangxi's coast, but the river without the inland river. The change in the traffic pattern will also directly change the large -scale economic development pattern of Guangxi.

"Although the coast of Guangxi and most of the Xijiang River in Guangxi, most of the goods walking the water roads passing through the Pearl River to Guangzhou to the sea." Chen Hongqi said that after the Pinglu Canal shortened the voyage of going out to the sea, the goods in the middle and upper reaches of the Xijiang River no longer needed no longer need to need After the Pearl River, it is directly from Beibu Gulf.

In fact, the last step hub of the Xijiang Shipping Line and the "throat" of the Xijiang Golden Waterway -Wushou Water Conservancy Hub Boat of Wushan Governor has exceeded the Yangtze Three Gorges Hub for two consecutive years. In 2021, it was 150 million tons. Operation. "The vessel was blocked very hard, and the week was normal to block the week." Chen Hongqi said.

On August 28, 2022, the Pinglu Canal Construction Mobilization Conference was held at the Magao Hub Hub on the old state town of Lingshan County, Qinzhou City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Figure ｜ China News Agency

If the Xijiang "Golden Waterway" and Beibu Gulf Port are regarded as the "Ren Duer Pulse" of Guangxi's development, Chen Hongqi said: "After the Pinglu Canal is cultivated, the" Ren Du Er pulse "of Guangxi will be opened." In an interview with reporters, the Pinglu Canal will connect Guizhou and Yunnan through Zuojiang, Youjiang, Qianjiang, Hongshui River, Liujiang, and Liujiang River to achieve the direct penetration of the inland river channel and marine transportation in the southwestern region of China. Great release of shipping advantages and potential.

The shortening of the mileage out of the sea will effectively improve the current situation of "Guangxi goods do not take the North Bay Gulf Port", and can also draw more cargo flow in the western inland provinces and make Guangxi the western inland provinces through the prefecture to cross the province and cross the sea. The first choice to further activate Guangxi's economic development and even the development of western China.

The county -level city at the starting point of the Pinglu Canal, Nanning Hengzhou City (originally Hengxian), the shipping company here has begun to plan. Huang Qiongyong, head of Nantong Shipping Co., Ltd., Guangxi Hengxian County, said that since he learned that the Pinglu Canal's construction was about to start construction this year, he and his "boat owner" friend couldn't wait to plan to lay out related industries. Huang Qiongyong has more than 80 cargo ships, and now he has settled LNG green energy ships. He plans to transform the old ship for the opening of the Pinglu Canal.

Huang Qiongyong is a "three generations of ships". He calculated a account to reporters: his cargo ship from Bai Seng, Guangxi to Guangzhou, about 1220 kilometers of the waterway, and the total revenue of the round -trip cargo was about 126,000 yuan, and the cost was as high as 90,000 yuan. It takes 40-45 days; after the Pinglu Canal, the total revenue from Baise to Qinzhou is about 120,000 yuan, and the cost is about 40,000 to 50,000 yuan, up to 15 days back and forth.

It is worth mentioning that the biggest blockage point of the Pinglu Canal starting point on the upstream of the Pingtang River Ests and the Youjiang Water Road transportation is the Baise Water Conservancy Hub. In June 2021, the key project of the 20 -year problem of the right Jiang Banhang -the Park Water Resources Hub Navigation Facilities Project was officially started. "Yunnan Province actively invested in participating in construction. In the future, the goods in Yunnan will go through the Pinglu Canal from the North Bay Port through the Pinglu Canal through the Encyclopedia Water Conservancy Hub." The construction of railways is planning to form an advantage of iron and water transportation.

"The Pinglu Canal has enriched the concept and connotation of Guangxi's advantages." Lei Xiaohua, deputy director of the Southeast Asia Research Institute of Guangxi Academy of Social Sciences and the chief expert of the research and innovation team of Southeast Asia and the International Issues, believes that after the completion of the Pinglu Canal, the Western Luhai New Channel Tiehai The rich transportation forms such as joint transportation and Jianghai joint transportation will provide logistics transportation support and industrial support for the western region. As the hardware of the Jianghai Lianyan, the Pinglu Canal has opened up the "Ren Du Er pulse" of Guangxi from the aspects of improving the transportation method and the open pattern, and the improvement of production factor flow and industrial docking.

The flow of rivers and south will be the new coastal development?

"Open the map of China, you can see that for thousands of years, the Great River in China has flowed into the sea from west to the east. The pattern. "Chen Hongqi said that the construction of the Pinglu Canal will turn the south of the river into reality, forming a new channel for the large -scale, low -cost, and wide -coverage of China's longitudinal capabilities, low cost, and large -coverage, thereby promoting the adjustment of industrial structure.

Ouyang Bin, a member of the Party Group of the Transportation Department of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, the director of the Canal Office of the Transport Department, and a member of the Central Government Dr. Gui Service Group, believes that the construction of the Pinglu Canal has opened a new and convenient estuary for the Chinese land. The long -term will be diverted by the Yangtze River. Through the planning with the planned water systems such as the planning, the effective connection of the Yangtze River Water System and the Pearl River Water Series will effectively alleviate the bottlenecks including the Three Gorges Boat gates in the future, and effectively promote the development and optimization of land space.

"After the completion of the Pinglu Canal, it has the greatest impact on the industrial radiation in the central and western regions. International raw materials, capital, talent and other factors reaches the western region through the large transportation, which will play a strategic support for the central and western regions. The cost of production is basically guaranteed, and the product market can also have lower logistics and transportation costs. "Lei Xiaohua said.

Lei Xiaohua believes that the river water in the south brings not only logistics and flow, but it will also cause the North Bay Bay to form a variety of elements, thus leverage the development of western China, and make the North Bay Bay formed a new development of China's coastal development. One pole. "It turns out that the convenient passage of the sea will definitely form an industrial gathering. The convenient sea transportation in Guangxi has attracted Gansu's Jinchuan Group Copper Co., Ltd.. With the opening of the canal in the future Beibu Gulf. "

Lei Xiaohua said that the most concentrated effect of the Pinglu Canal is the most convenient water transportation channel in the Southwest Oceanic Channel and the China -ASEAN International Course, as well as providing sufficient freshwater resources for Guangxi Linhai Industry. Its comprehensive effect and social effects It is very obvious that the project spans all walks of life. Once the Pinglu Canal is opened, it will form a new pattern of sea iron+Jianghai joint transportation in the north Bay of Guangxi, which will fundamentally change the strategic position of Beibu Gulf.

With corresponding favorable conditions, it is not possible to directly transform into a development advantage. Tang Hongxiang, director of the Scientific Research Division of the Guangxi Institute of Finance and Economics, believes that how to plan the development of the economic belt around the canal and promote industrial development is the biggest difficulty in the construction of the Pinglu Canal. Only by integrating the industrial, tourism, and rural revitalization systems, and the aggregation of the source of the industry can further break the "closure" situation of shipping. "The essence of the canal is transportation, logistics promotes trade, trade promotes investment, and investment promotes industrialization." Lei Xiaohua said that after the Pinglu Canal is completed, the logistics channel can provide more cost -effective transportation and more efficient and high -quality services, so that to make The Beibu Gulf has a new coastal development, and it will also more effectively promote China's economic and trade cooperation.

Related documents show that the development of the Pinglu Canal has created favorable conditions for the development of the sea economy in the middle and upstream of the Xijiang River, the industrial transfer of the Pearl River Delta region, and vigorously developing primary products. , Liuzhou, Guiben, Guigang and other Guangxi cities innovation and opening up. Lei Xiaohua pointed out that there may be a new pattern: the development of the western region will be developed to form a new development highland in the western region.
