Chongchuan district, Nantong, East China's Jiangsu province has been making efforts to advance high-quality development over the past decade.

Chongchuan's economic aggregate has been the highest in Nantong over the past two years, and this is largely due to the establishment of industrial parks that have driven innovation and entrepreneurship in the district.

For example, the Shibei High-Tech Park has introduced more than 240 technology and innovation enterprises since its establishment in 2010.

In 2020, Chongchuan established the Information Technology Application Innovation Park that has brought in nearly 100 enterprises to date.

This year, Chongchuan signed a cooperation agreement with the Beijing Zhongguancun Science Park to build a national level cyber security park in the district.

To date, Chongchuan has established three provincial strategic alliances for the integrated circuit, marine engineering and industrial fans sectors. The first innovation consortium of semiconductor industry in Jiangsu province was also established in Chongchuan.

The local government has also been making concerted efforts to improve the natural environment. Since 2016, the Binjiang area of the Five Mountain area in Chongchuan has increased its forest area by over six square kilometers and now has a forest coverage rate of more than 80 percent.

Measures have also been taken to improve livelihoods. For example, the district has been investing more than 70 percent of its annual financial revenue gains in this aspect. Meanwhile, the residential community renovation campaign is expected to benefit more than 390,000 people from 251 old residential communities.

The district has also been providing diversified elderly care services. Today, seniors in the district can choose to enjoy services at home, in residential communities or at professional institutions.
