Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Park Revolution

In April 1990, my father called me and told me: Pudong is about to be developed, and our Suzhou will be even more remarkable. Pudong?What does the development of Pudong have to do with my hometown Suzhou? We are so close to Shanghai, if Pudong is going to become Shenzhen, we will get rich together!At that time, I felt that my father, who was far away from the political center, was inseparable from the essence of "countryman" in his consciousness.But this time I underestimated my father, and even more underestimated the Suzhou folks’ understanding of Pudong. I have known Pudong since I was a teenager, but it is a horrible place for me. I once lost my heart in its embrace... It was a winter day in the early 1970s when I was in middle school. In order to earn work points for the production team during the winter vacation, I once again rowed with the adults to Shanghai to transport ammonia.The three-ton small wooden boat had to cross a section of the Huangpu River. It was the first time I saw such a rapid Huangpu River. After getting out of the Waibaidu Bridge, the feet standing on the back board of the boat were not stable, and it was impossible to help Adults row the oars—in fact, when sailing on the Huangpu River, you can only go with the flow.Our small boat was like a floating bamboo leaf in the river. Whenever the later steamer passed by, our small boat lost all self-control and fell along with the bumps. "It's in the water! It's in the water, run for your life—" Suddenly, when the captain of the ship's militia company screamed, grabbed me by the back collar, and jumped into the river together... When my soul was broken, I subconsciously I opened my hands and paddled on the piercing river, and then vaguely saw a lifeboat coming towards me... When I woke up, I found that I was thrown on a mudflat.I don't know where it is, but on the opposite side of the river is the Gothic customs bell tower I've seen before.The adults later told me: The mudflat where I lived was Lujiazui in Pudong, and now that place is the International Conference Center.Not far from it is today's "Pearl of the Orient" and the crystal clear Senmao Building that soars into the sky.

A few years later, when I was passing through Shanghai on my way home from my first visit to relatives in the army, I went to the Bund on purpose. Across the Huangpu River, I saw Lujiazui on the other side of the river, still a piece of dilapidated farmland and few houses. However, a few years later, when I stood on the Bund and looked at Lujiazui on the other side, I was horrified: the place that once made me lose my mind turned out to be another Chinese "Manhattan"! The history of Pudong’s development started with the rapid advancement of two contemporary giants in Shanghai—Deng Xiaoping came and Jiang Zemin left.

Jiang Zemin first came to Shanghai from Beijing.When he was the mayor of Shanghai, he took over the trust of the old mayor Wang Daohan and began to plan the general plan of "Pudong development". In 1987, another senior official came to Beijing, and he was Zhu Rongji, who later served as mayor of Shanghai.Jiang Zemin, Zhu Rongji partnered with the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government to promote the development of Pudong is historic. In mid-1989, Jiang Zemin "went north" to become the top leader of China.The development of Pudong has a huge impetus.However, the most important figure in promoting the development of Pudong was Deng Xiaoping, the chief architect of China's modernization.

On April 18, 1990, a piece of news in Greater Shanghai shocked Suzhou people who were close at hand: Another special zone in China—the Pudong Development Zone was officially established. At that time, the whole country was envious of the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone in the south, but no one could compare with it - the development there was changing rapidly.At that time, when I went to Shenzhen, I had to apply for a "special zone pass" from the public security department, which was as exciting as going abroad. "If we can open up like Shenzhen, it will really be a paradise!" Every Suzhou native who has been to Shenzhen has secretly sighed how many times.

Now Pudong will become the second "Shenzhen"!Doesn't it mean that we are really going to heaven soon? People in Suzhou envy Shenzhen, but some of them are far away.Now that Pudong in Shanghai is going to become a "special zone", that's the right time and place!Suzhou people are as excited as Shanghai people watching the sound of bulldozers being developed in Pudong, and the apex of their chests is beating as fast as a deer. They were excited, excited that the god-sent luck had finally arrived. They calculated, calculated the "magnetic field" effect brought to them by the development of Pudong...

In short, the people of Suzhou are watching every subtle action in Pudong, Shanghai excitedly and excitedly, and they are looking for opportunities to use and benefit for themselves... Shanghai development is late!Try to keep up! During the Spring Festival of 1991, Deng Xiaoping celebrated the Spring Festival in Shanghai. What he said to Zhu Rongji at the revolving restaurant on the 41st floor of the New Jin Jiang Hotel that day reached the ears of Suzhou people that night.In a few days, Deng Xiaoping's other more important words quickly spread to Suzhou people—— "The four special economic zones were determined that year, mainly because of geographical considerations. Shenzhen is adjacent to Hong Kong, Zhuhai is close to Macau, Shantou is because there are many people from Chaozhou in Southeast Asian countries, and Xiamen is because there are many people from southern Hokkien doing business abroad, but they did not take into account Shanghai's advantages in terms of talents. Shanghai people are smart and well-educated. If it was decided to set up a special economic zone in Shanghai at that time, it will not be like this now. Fourteen coastal open cities have Shanghai, but that is generalized. If Pudong Like the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, it should have been developed a few years ago. The development of Pudong will have a great impact. It is not just Pudong, it is a problem related to the development of Shanghai, and it is a problem of using Shanghai as a base to develop the Yangtze River Delta and the Yangtze River Basin. Grasp Pudong Develop, don't waver, until it's built..."

Listen, Xiaoping is in a hurry!Pudong will also become the second Shenzhen! We are the closest to Shanghai, and the development of Pudong is a huge opportunity for us in Suzhou. We must seize it this time! In the ancient city of Suzhou, the cadres were discussing enthusiastically, and their hearts were agitated, as if Deng Xiaoping's words were addressed to them: Don't waver, hurry up and develop! Pudong will become the second Shenzhen, and Suzhou will become the first Shenzhen of Jiangsu.At that time, in the minds of mainlanders, Shenzhen was a model of reform and opening up, a model of a modern society, and the goal of the people's prosperity.Shenzhen is undoubtedly the best example to learn from when looking for new development points in an economically developed inland area like Suzhou, where the traditional economy is highly developed.However, under the traditional socialist thinking at that time, Shenzhen was mostly "capitalist".Now with Deng Xiaoping, Shanghai Pudong can also build a special zone like Shenzhen. This does not mean that socialism with "Chinese characteristics" is thoroughly carried out!

Since the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee in 1978, China's reform and opening up has been wave after wave.Taking the development of Pudong as an opportunity should be regarded as another big wave surging.Needless to say, the development of Pudong has the greatest impact and opportunity on Suzhou. It is necessary to explain: in fact, before the development of Pudong, the Suzhou Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government had already paid great attention to the development of an export-oriented economy in the mid-to-late 1980s, and it was fruitful.The rise of Kunshan and Zhangjiagang is the best illustration.It’s just that the export-oriented economy at this stage is in the initial stage of attracting capital and joint ventures, while the obvious feature of the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone’s export-oriented economy is to build a comprehensive export-oriented economy in a certain scale of the region, which is the so-called “special zone” .

The state has strict regulations on the construction of "special zone", which is actually a new division of administrative regions.This has to be approved by the State Council.Greater Shanghai has the undeveloped "virgin land" across the bank of Pudong, which is separated from the Huangpu River, and on the east is the Great East China Sea, which leads to all corners of the country. The development space is vast and low-cost. How to play "My Li Suzhou"?In fact, the ancient city of Suzhou, built more than 2,500 years ago, was just a city with "forty miles and two hundred and ten paces around, and sixty-eight miles and sixty paces outside the city". It is in line with the "Great City of Helu".However, in today's world, which has long been centered on modern metropolises, the ancient city of Suzhou can only be regarded as a small city, and the Fangcheng, which was composed of a network of water areas when Suzhou was built, has a very limited area and space, which also determines It shows her cultural characteristics dominated by gardens, alleys, small bridges and flowing water.After entering the 1980s, Suzhou people, under the wave of reform in China, saw Shenzhen built on the barren beach in the south, and the bridges across the intersection and river in the big Shanghai next to them, not to mention the bridges like Beijing's well-connected subways and network-like urban high-speed ring roads are her "people"—Changshu, Kunshan, Zhangjiagang, etc. The vigorous development of their own "five tiger cubs" has made people in the ancient city of Suzhou feel more and more pressure. .The sound of selling alleys on Guanqian Street and the income from tourist tickets in Huqiuling are naturally something to be proud of, but after all, small bridges and flowing water do not have the turbulent passion and momentum of big rivers and seas, especially the tide of the global economy. Remarkable regions and cities can surpass the entire development history of thousands of years old cities like Suzhou in just a few years.This ever-changing historical trend has made Suzhou people, who have always been warm, feel an unprecedented impact—what is the way out for Suzhou?

Will Suzhou always maintain its original ancient city culture and economy—that kind of self-satisfaction like a small bridge and flowing water, or keep up with the development trend of the world and rebuild Suzhou New City? This is a big topic for Suzhou people and Suzhou leaders.Who dares to solve this problem?Whoever may be the hero of history may also be the sinner of history.The State Council of the Ancient City of Suzhou had a special document on the protection of the historical style and features of the ancient city of Suzhou as early as the 1980s. It is not that whoever makes a fuss in the ancient city cannot do it, but what you can do can not only protect the style of the ancient city, but also let people let go Hands and feet dry modern economy?Such articles may not be produced by super-genius people anyway.

Because—the ancient city is limited, and if it is a Taoist temple, even if all the eminent monks in the world such as Hanshan Temple are invited to come, they can only recite old scriptures, and there is no elegant hall for the world to look at.Shenzhen can build a world-class new city on the wasteland. Greater Shanghai has the boundless and vast space of Pudong. Even the "people" such as Changshu, Wujiang, Zhangjiagang, and Xiaokunshan can develop in a space that is several times or dozens of times larger than your ancient city of Suzhou. And develop it! The pressure and panic of Suzhou people are due to the constraints and restrictions of the ancient city. A way must be found!A new Suzhou must be rebuilt! At this time, Gao Dezheng, Secretary of the Suzhou Municipal Party Committee, who was known as the "Nubibi Secretary" who was famous for his export-oriented economy, was appointed by the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee to serve in northern Jiangsu. Comrade Wang Minsheng, who was elegant and elegant, came to Suzhou as the new Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Wang Minsheng was the commissioner of Zhenjiang District before he became the secretary of the Suzhou Municipal Party Committee. At the same time, he also held the post of secretary of the Secretariat of the League Central Committee.Wang Minsheng is a veteran "Suzhou fellow". Before 1975, Wuxi County was under the jurisdiction of the Suzhou area, and he was the secretary of the Wuxi County Party Committee.During the great development of township enterprises, Wuxi was once known as "the first county in China", and its economic aggregate and comprehensive strength ranked first among county-level units in the country.As a result, Wang Minsheng's official career has skyrocketed. When the first Communist Youth League Central Committee was established after the "Cultural Revolution", he was the secretary of the secretariat after Han Ying and Hu Qili. At the age of 42, he became the secretary of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee. In 1989, he returned to Suzhou to serve as the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee.At that time, Suzhou, my hometown, was in a special period like the political and economic situation in the whole country. The cadres were panicked, afraid to do things, and afraid to do things. Under the political needs of "stability over everything else", Wang Minsheng put forward the idea of ​​"seeking progress while maintaining stability" for the development of Suzhou, which later proved to be very wise and important. One day in August 2008, I interviewed old secretary Wang Minsheng in a quaint courtyard in the ancient city of Suzhou.Speaking Wu, he recalled the social situation in Suzhou at that time and said: "When I went to the guest house, I couldn't see anyone. Everyone was very nervous. They didn't dare to receive foreigners, and they didn't dare to receive their own people who came to discuss business. The cadres all had a ' Afraid of the word '. Afraid of talking about business, development is considered to be corrupt, crooked and unhealthy. I ask the municipal party committee to call on cadres to correctly understand the documents of the 'two courts' (high court and high court). Comrades came forward to speak, let the cadres correctly understand and distinguish the essential difference between normal exchanges in the reform and opening up, crooked ways, corruption, and unhealthy practices, especially what is law and discipline, and what is corruption, so that the majority The cadres have re-established their confidence in the Party and the reform and opening up. At the same time, we have set up several models, such as Shengze in Wujiang and Yangshe Town in Zhangjiagang, etc., insisting on the ten benefits of developing township enterprises... These are all important to the time Consolidating and promoting Suzhou's economy played a key role. "In 1991, a catastrophic flood hit our Suzhou. General Secretary Jiang Zemin also visited the flood relief site in Suzhou. But even in the face of such natural disasters, our Suzhou economy is still very good. In 1992, the official document of Deng Xiaoping's southern tour speech has not yet been released. When I came down, I asked people to go to the provincial party committee in Nanjing to get a copy and bring it back to the cadres in time. The more everyone learned Deng Xiaoping's speech, the brighter their hearts became, and their motivation came. They all expressed that Suzhou should not lag behind this wave of great development So we looked for a carrier for development. This carrier is what we Suzhou people often call a "new Suzhou" and a "foreign Suzhou". That is, the high-tech park on the west side of the ancient city and the industrial park on the east side of the ancient city. In a sense, it is the historical and cultural charm of the picturesque ancient city of Old Suzhou plus the two wings of 'New Suzhou' and 'Ocean Suzhou' on both sides..." I have worked in this hot land of Suzhou for 34 years Wang Minsheng, recalling the passionate years, finally said: "My municipal party committee completed the historical process of changing the economic model from the inside to the outside. Now it seems that we did the right thing at that time." Comrade Wang Minsheng, who has always been peaceful and humble, is right.His Suzhou Municipal Party Committee not only did it right, but judging from the current facts, it can be said that it did a very outstanding and exquisite job!Because today's Suzhou, without the support and support of two industrial parks, the development of the small and quiet Suzhou City would be unimaginable in today's rapid global economy. To understand the overall picture of Suzhou's urban economy, one must first understand the "New Suzhou" that Suzhou people are proud of. "New Suzhou" is located in the west wing of the ancient city of Suzhou, where the "Suzhou National High-tech Industrial Development Zone" or "High-tech Zone" for short is located. In November 1271, the 17-year-old Italian traveler Marco Polo embarked on the mysterious road to seek the Eastern world. After landing in the Mediterranean city of Aga, he followed the "Silk Road" at the beginning of the first century BC. "Eastbound.When the only son of this giant businessman sailed into Suzhou, the "paradise on earth" in the eastern world, in a traveling boat, the young man who grew up in the water city of Venice wrote this sentence in surprise: "Suzhou city is amazingly beautiful." He also wrote: "There is a large population here, and it is surprisingly dense." "The people are kind and timid, and they only engage in industry and commerce. In this respect, they do appear to be quite capable...The commerce and crafts here are very prosperous." "If their bravery is as superior as their wit, then..." So, what?Marco Polo didn't say it, and even if he did, he lacked imagination, because his understanding of "Oriental Venice" was superficial.In fact, the Italian traveler pointed out the huge potential of Suzhou, and once this potential is released, it will shock the whole world. However, Suzhou did not show its charm and potential in the long years that followed. It seems that it has been looking for such an opportunity to "shock the world". After 7 centuries, Suzhou finally has such an opportunity!This opportunity is naturally China's reform and opening up, specifically, the opportunity brought about by the engine of Shanghai Pudong Development Zone. In the memory of some old Suzhou people, it seems that it was still yesterday—— At the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Suzhou Municipal Committee in 1990, Secretary Wang Minsheng, Deputy Secretary and Mayor Zhang Xinsheng agreed to express their own ideas: the counties and cities to which Suzhou belongs have "flyed", and the economy of the old city of Suzhou what to do? "Look, I have a deep impression: you have a lot of power in the central government today, but if your strength is gone, when the small countries and local princes below are stronger than you, your regime will be almost the same!" "What do you mean? Are you saying that now that Changshu, Zhangjiagang, Wujiang and Kunshan, including Taicang, which is growing stronger and stronger, will not listen to our Suzhou Municipal Party Committee anymore? Forgive them! The world is under the leadership of the Communist Party, and whoever wants to fight for independence will end in disgrace!" "That's not what I meant. What I meant was: If we, those of us sitting in the city of Suzhou, can't improve the economy of Suzhou, if you give orders here, there will be less and less people listening to you in the future! Seriously, people don't have to listen to your orders at all!" "Why? Do they still want the leadership of the Communist Party?" "Although you can't say that, but you can't do well in the things around you. The brothers have become stronger, and you are not tough when you are an old man! This is absolute." At the Standing Committee, several comrades argued.This dispute seems to be common, but once it is put on the Standing Committee, once it is presented as a serious issue, it really makes the municipal party committee feel a great pressure-your Suzhou Municipal Committee only asks the following how-and-how Development, the area under your nose is still a piece of stagnant water; if you just let the waves below rise and rush up, the result will inevitably be drowning yourself. "Everyone's concerns are justified. We have been asking the people below to do what and how, but the ancient city under our noses cannot be built. I don't think others will say it, but we all have a sense of crisis." Wang Minsheng Point it out sharply. "It's obvious: all counties and cities are developing like a raging fire, and the mind is more liberated than our municipal party committee, so is it time for us to emancipate our minds in the development of urban areas? I think the conclusion is obvious." Mayor Zhang Xinsheng's attitude is also very clear and firm. Therefore, the economic development of Suzhou urban area became the first strategic step taken by the Suzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government in the 1990s. However, how does Suzhou develop its economy, how can it develop drastically like Zhangjiagang and Kunshan?This topic is really difficult for Wang Minsheng, Zhang Xinsheng and the others—— Gusu has a thousand-year-old charm, everyone loves it, whoever touches a brick wall or turf, someone may write a letter to the central government or the State Council meeting - there is a reason for this: in the early days of reform and opening up, Chen Congzhou, an expert on ancient garden architecture at Tongji University in Shanghai, and several others Celebrities once issued an appeal to "save Suzhou". In 1981, Kuang Yaming, the honorary president of Nanjing University, and others came to Suzhou to conduct on-the-spot investigations and investigations. They were deeply worried about the destruction of the ancient city of Suzhou, and then wrote an "About Suzhou" together with several local experts and scholars in Suzhou. "Report on Serious Damage to Gardens and Scenic Spots and Several Emergency Measures Suggested" was reported to the central government.The central leaders at that time attached great importance to it, and Deng Xiaoping ordered that "Jiangsu Province should study it and take effective measures to protect it."General Secretary Hu Yaobang commented: "Whether it is a short-term construction policy or a long-term construction policy, it is necessary to seek truth from facts and pay attention to actual results. It must be realized by the party organizations at all levels in Suzhou and the people of the city with a revolutionary spirit of striving for strength and self-reliance. Afterwards, relevant departments of the central government, Jiangsu Province and Suzhou City conducted a large number of investigations. On May 12, 1982, the State Council approved the "Report on the Protection of the Ancient City of Suzhou and the Future Construction Policy" of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee. This document clearly stipulates that the ancient city of Suzhou is a national historical and cultural heritage. Any large-scale urban construction must be reported to the relevant departments at the central and provincial levels for approval.Shortly thereafter, Deng Xiaoping conducted research in Suzhou, during which he said to the leaders of Suzhou: Suzhou gardens are the precious wealth left to us by our ancestors, and we must protect them; we must protect this ancient city and not destroy the style of the ancient city, otherwise, its The advantages will disappear; the relationship between protection and renovation must be properly handled, so as to protect the ancient city and do a good job in municipal construction.This means: Suzhou is no longer the Suzhou of the Suzhou people themselves, but the Suzhou of China, the Suzhou of all 1.3 billion Chinese people, and the history of Suzhou people moving as they please has come to an end.On the one hand, this is a good thing. It allows the protection of the ancient city of Suzhou to be incorporated into a "national task." Because the ancient city cannot be moved, Suzhou people are forced to think about "strategy outside the city"—— "The land of lakes and marshes in the east is also a barren paddy field, only the west wing..." There are water and mountains in the west wing, and it can still show its grand plans. The result of the discussion was completely unanimous, which was actually forced by heaven and earth. The construction of "New Suzhou" is limited by the guidance of the ancients to build the city, and there is no other way. Reserve a piece of land and rebuild a new city in Suzhou!This happened in the early 1990s, when a group of Wudi elites planned to get rid of the shackles of the old Suzhou "Xu City" with a history of more than 2,500 years, and strive for the new Suzhou world.It doesn't sound like an earth-shattering event now, but at that time, in Suzhou, which is known as a small bridge and flowing water, it could not but be said to be a loud noise like a spring thunder. After the opinions of the municipal party committee and the municipal government came out, there was an uproar in Gusu City.There are as many pros and cons.Needless to say, the reasons for those in favor: Suzhou needs to develop, and the old city cannot make big articles like Shenzhen and Pudong; those who oppose it have more reasons: building a new city means abandoning the famous historical city and the famous "Oriental Venice". The style of ancient Suzhou.In the eyes of these people: Suzhou should not be changed. This is a precious national heritage left by the ancient Chinese. Whoever changes it is a "sinner" of history and future generations. In this world-famous historical city, whoever wants to move their own land is very likely to become a "criminal for thousands of years". "Naturally, the style and appearance of the ancient city of Suzhou cannot be changed, but this does not mean that the urban economy of Suzhou cannot be developed. We have a historical responsibility to protect the old city. However, in the context of the globalized economy, we should let the ancient Suzhou take off as well. We should put wings on the ancient city. With these wings, Suzhou will take off, and the protection of the ancient city will be truly possible. This truth should be known to the citizens.” Wang Minsheng, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, said at the Standing Committee. People in Suzhou are smart, but not conservative at the same time. The decisions made by the municipal party committee and the municipal government were quickly responded by the citizens.So the grand blueprint of "wings" for the ancient city began to be planned... Where are the "wings" inserted?This is the problem.The old city of Gusu was hand-painted by a Fengshui expert invited by Wu Zixu back then. It is said that "the earth tastes the water, like the heaven and the earth", and it is not easy to change the Fengshui. Once the Fengshui is destroyed, the whole city will collapse.In the past, there were eight gates on land in Gusu City, which symbolizes that the wind from eight directions in the sky can be received, so that the weather will be smooth; there are also eight gates on the waterway, which are used to prevent the invasion of hell and invaders. Make the people's livelihood in the city happy and happy.In fact, in the more than 2,500 years since the ancient city of Suzhou was built, despite the turmoil of countless wars and the changes of the times, the original style of the city has never changed, which is unprecedented in the history of cities in the world.It shows that the old city of Gusu does have "immortal spirit". "Wings" must be placed on the two wings. Looking at Wudi in the north and south, one side is Changshu, which looks down on the world, and the other side is Wujiang, which is in a hurry.If Suzhou wants to develop, if it wants to break the crest of the two counties, it will definitely affect the overall situation.After adding wings in the north-south direction was denied, the eyes of decision makers naturally fell on the east and west wings of the ancient city. This place is easier to deal with, it is all in Wu County.Besides, Wu County has always embraced and depended on Suzhou City in the past. Incorporating Wu County into Suzhou City and integrating it into one body is suitable for greater development of Suzhou City, and the people of Wu County in the middle of Wu will not suffer.Considering the geography of Suzhou urban area, this idea of ​​the rulers should be said to be the best solution. Later, it also proved that it is wise to include the ancient city and Wu County attached to Suzhou urban area into Suzhou urban area. However, Wu County has an administrative history of thousands of years after all, and in the past, it has been called "Suzhou Three Masters" together with Changshu and Wujiang.The loss of the name of the administrative division means that Wu County has since disappeared from the territory. This pain is also very painful for officials and people in a region that enjoys a high reputation.Fortunately, the people of Wu County have an inseparable natural blood relationship with the urban area of ​​Suzhou. In 2001, Wu County was withdrawn from the city and became two districts of Suzhou, Xiangcheng and Wuzhong, which were attached to the east and west wings of the ancient city.In the new Wuzhong District, half of the historical relics of Gusu are located on this land, so it is called "Wuzhong" in real sense.The land of Wuzhong naturally includes the relics of Wu.In addition, here embraces the rippling Taihu Lake, which is a wonderful place of geomantic omen.In contrast, Xiangcheng in the east has much worse natural conditions.Not to mention that there are many historical relics missing here, even the lakes and ponds here are all messy and thin, and I can't bear to look closely. "New Suzhou" should be built in Wuzhong District on the shore of Taihu Lake!Although the decision maker is not a feng shui master, everyone is happy when they see good water and mountains. This historic choice made the city appearance of Gusu a major breakthrough for the first time. It can be attributed to the result of Suzhou people’s own seeking changes, and it can also be understood as a “century awakening” brought to Suzhou people after the development of Pudong in Shanghai. ". The construction and development of this ideal "New Suzhou" in the minds of Suzhou people is basically following in the footsteps of Shanghai Pudong.It began in 1990 and was officially approved by the state in 1992. The initial name of "New Suzhou" was "Hexi New District", which is a bit like Shanghai's "Pudong New District".The so-called Hexi refers to the geographical location, that is, the west side of the canal. "Hexi New District" was later renamed "Suzhou National High-tech Park".The name did not come easily, because at that time the country's policy on development zones was in the stage of tightening and rectification, and it was clear that no new development zones would be approved. If the country does not approve it, it means that the child does not have a birth certificate, and there will be endless troubles.Wang Minsheng, secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, became anxious and said: "Development is the last word, and getting approval is even more important!" With his efforts, the Suzhou cadres who had caught the "last train" quickly organized all possible relationships and went to the capital to carry out the investigation. The activities finally convinced the "chiefs" of all parties. The official approval of "Suzhou National High-tech Park" has brought Suzhou into a new era of "Park Revolution".Among them, the correct decision-making of the municipal party committee led by Comrade Wang Minsheng played a vital role. "At that time, we regarded the construction of the Hexi New District as a 'small special zone in Suzhou' and planned to do a lot of work, so we transferred Wang Jinhua from Kunshan to build an economic development zone at his own expense..." Wang Minsheng recalled. The Suzhou Municipal Party Committee transferred Wang Jinhua to the urban area to build a "small special zone", which can be said to be a high-stakes move.This person is now the chairman of the Suzhou CPPCC.He started building an industrial park in Suzhou in 2001, which made Suzhou shake and change with each passing day, making the construction of the industrial park, which Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore was once very dissatisfied with, flourishing and attracting worldwide attention.But many people don't understand that Wang Jinhua's real power and display of excellence in building industrial parks or "development zones" was brought into full play in the construction of Kunshan's "self-financed development zone" and Suzhou High-tech Zone.Before Wang Jinhua became the chairman of the Suzhou CPPCC, there were three bright spots in his life trajectory: first, in the mid-to-late 1980s, in Kunshan, he worked side by side with the old secretary Wu Kequan in the vigorous "passion burning" years of the Kunshan Development Zone; In the 1990s, the ten-year struggle history of "passionate" in the construction of "New Suzhou"; the third is the glorious era of "passionate shining" in Suzhou Industrial Park after the new century. Now let's listen to the ten-year struggle history of him and his comrades in the construction of "New Suzhou"—— The turn of spring and summer in 1991. A small boat sailed calmly into the small inland river on the west side of the ancient canal. The boat was too ordinary to attract anyone's attention.A few men traveled with the boat on the narrow river, and wherever the water passed, farmland, mounds, mountains, and scattered villages were all silent. Because no one paid attention to what these people were doing, so no one was watching what they wanted to do.There are no frogs in the farmland, the small trees on the mounds stand alone, the wind blows through the mountains quietly, and a few wisps of cooking smoke rise from the village... This is the scene of the western suburbs of the ancient city of Suzhou in the early 1990s. It has been more than 2,500 years Almost a static landscape painting. Several men drifted away all the way, and no one spoke.After floating the small river and crossing the flooded fields, someone suggested by a mound: Stop the boat and go ashore to have a look. The voice of the person who spoke was generous, and although his words were not harsh, they were very magnetic, with a certain unstoppable force.He is Wang Jinhua, about 1.75 meters tall, and a strong figure, which makes people feel that this person has strong internal strength.At this moment, his identity is the general manager of Suzhou Urban Construction Development Corporation, the executive deputy commander-in-chief of the Suzhou New District Development Headquarters, and the actual person in charge of "New Suzhou". "Commander, this place is called the Great Northern Wilderness in Suzhou by the locals, do you think it looks like it?" a fellow comrade in arms asked Wang Jinhua. Wang Jinhua did not answer, his eyes swept across the mountains and waters, fields and hills, and wisps of cooking smoke in front of him—this was very familiar to him, and the place in his hometown in Kunshan was also like this a few years ago. After entering the "Self-funded Development Zone", everything changed.Wang Jinhua turned his head slowly, and at that moment he stared, he saw the outline of the ancient city of Suzhou not far away, it was really beautiful - the slanting Tiger Hill Pagoda, the ancient canal with sirens, and the looming Suzhou ancient city. The city wall...the ancient city wall and the crescent-shaped bridge separate the two worlds between the ancient city and the countryside—the different worlds between the city and the countryside in Gusu. We are now going to connect these two different worlds together without any visible caulking. "I believe it's okay. Suzhou in the ancient city, small bridges and flowing water, gardens and ancient alleys, are always said by outsiders as fake mountains and fake waters. Now we are all good here: the mountains are real, the water is real, and the new Suzhou must be Real mountains and rivers are full of poetry!" Wang Jinhua, who was born in a soldier, is not a poet, but he said this to his comrades like a poet at this moment. To be honest, when he looked back at the ancient city of Suzhou, he was very excited because he suddenly thought of Wu Zixu, the general of Wu State 2,500 years ago... In 2,500 years, Suzhou City has experienced wind and rain, but it still stands tall and has become the most complete ancient city in the world, famous all over the world.Now a new city will be built in this ancient city, which will coexist harmoniously and perfectly with the ancient city. This will mean that whoever undertakes such a great project will be another Wu Zixu-style great man in the history of Suzhou city construction. Of course, today's new Suzhou city can no longer be the work of Wu Zixu 2,500 years ago alone. It is the wisdom and crystallization of the collective, because this decision came from the central government. On June 13, 1986, the Suzhou Urban Construction Master Plan approved by the State Council was the foundation stone of Suzhou New City. Since then, "ancient city and new district, east city and west city" have taken root in the hearts of Suzhou people. Now comes the age of implementation.The ancient city of Suzhou has long been unable to bear the burden of history, and it has been crying out to get rid of the burden on its body—the old city cannot be stretched, and the 350 square kilometers of ancient alleys on the banks of the river cannot accept more than 3 million tourists every day. And the residents of the city living here - 24,000 people per square kilometer have already exhausted the alleys and wooden bridges... "Your mission is: to rebuild a new Suzhou in 10 years." Wang Minsheng, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, never speaks harshly, and his Wu dialect always has the softness unique to Suzhou people, but this time he confessed the task to Wang Jinhua At that time, his tone was very firm. Wang Jinhua remained silent about this. "To be more specific, the industrial output value of the urban area was 14.6 billion yuan last year, and your new district will reach this level in 10 years, 15 billion yuan." Wang Minsheng stared at Wang Jinhua after speaking, looking at his favorite general, this Kunshan How do people react. Usually, Suzhou people will modestly express their surprise to the leaders in order to give themselves some "room".But this Wang Jinhua did not, he slowly raised his eyes, glanced at the secretary of the municipal party committee and the mayor Zhang Xinsheng who was standing aside, and said a few seconds later: "15 billion is not unusual, the key lies in the policy. Play well..." Zhang Xinsheng smiled, and he glanced at the secretary Wang Minsheng, meaning to say: How about it, let me say that Wang Jinhua will do it! Of course!Wang Minsheng thought to himself: When Wang Jinhua was promoted to the city, he had a "private deal" with the "old man" and Wu Kequan from Kunshan: You have made small Kunshan bigger and stronger, what should I do in Suzhou?Suzhou can't let Kunshan be under the pressure!Maybe Suzhou can't do it well, I'll get you Wu Kequan together! Hearing what Wang Jinhua said, Wang Minsheng burst into laughter. "I'm not worried about anything. What I'm worried about is whether you will give Jinhua them the independent operation and command right to develop the new area." Wu Kequan said to Wang Minsheng. Later, Wang Minsheng and Zhang Xinsheng remembered Wu Kequan's words, and fulfilled their promise at the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee: they decided to give "privileges" to the New District Work Committee and Management Committee—county-level powers, including land, finance and taxation, public security, labor and personnel, There are 5 bureau-level establishment units for engineering management. “可以了，我们先干起来再说。”副县级干部出身的王金华已经觉得市委、市政府给自己的权力够大了，虽然他当时手下只有“七八个人，十来条枪”，但毕竟现在是“县处级”的司令了！ 站在荒丘上，王金华顺着风吹动自己的头发，目光转回到眼前的这片运河之边山与水、田野与村庄之上……他的胸脯在起伏、激荡。他感到了站在母亲面前的那种儿子的责任和义务，非常强烈的责任和义务。 当时的新区指挥部设在苏州三元一村的一间50年代造的老房子里，好在指挥部只有4个男人，要不会有点麻烦，因为老房子里没有女厕所，只有一个“坑道”式男厕。 没有女人在场，苏州的男人说话也放粗：“别看这里不像啥样，但我们要干的是创全国第一、世界一流。”王金华对自己也对手下的三个拓荒牛这么说。 2000万启动资金能干创世界一流的大业？有人心里冒虚汗。王金华则泰然置之，他提出新区四大发展战略：开放战略，科技战略，人才战略，繁荣战略。 前面三个战略好理解，可繁荣战略算啥？ ——这是王金华的思路，也是苏州改革走向世界性的战略思路。 参与新区的各路人马陆续报到后，王金华作了一次新区开发的动员，他一口气将四大战略的具体内容阐述了个明白：开放战略就是以引进外资为突破口，进而实施全方位的对外开放。产业进步与世界同步、具有国际运作能力才是真正的现代化开放型的经济发展；科技战略的重点是瞄准高新产业，使区域真正成为高新技术成果产业化、商品化、国际化的基地；人才战略，简单一句话就是“能翻多少跟斗，就铺多长的地毯。”目标是造就3支队伍：现代化管理人才队伍，国际化动作人才队伍和科技专业人才队伍；繁荣战略是通过三产和社会事业，促进新区的快速繁荣，将新区建设成一个现代化的新苏州城区。 丹桂飘香，迎来了苏州丝绸旅游节。王金华在旅游节上亮相，并四面出击，亮出的牌子是“苏州新区”。那些金发碧眼们大为惊讶：苏州还有一个新区？是什么样的新？ 可以去看看嘛！ 王金华叫人开车过来，将老外们拉到狮子山大桥上转了一圈。老外们看着苏州城外那处山和水，连连摇头：“王，你的新区很……嘿嘿，很不怎么样啊，与你的昆山差很多。” 王金华不急不躁，礼貌地朝老外们一笑，说：“明年你们再来实地考察，一定会有不同的感受。那时你们会喜欢我们这个新区的。” 老外们很兴奋：“好，明年我们再来！” “一言为定。明年！”王金华与老外们一一握手，老外们发现他的手格外有力量。 “明年”，是一个约定，是苏州人向世界友人和全中国的一个约定。 为这，沉睡千年的姑苏西郊的那片曾经战马踏蹄的土地开始了沸腾——征地动迁的动员，掀开了太湖之滨的惊天巨浪…… 从随伍子胥入城至今几千年未移一寸故土的当地百姓，第一次被现代文明的触觉所撼动，他们有些不适，所以也不想听王金华他们讲的那童话般的明天的故事。于是他们拿起种地的锄头和挑水的扁担，要与那些想让他们搬家的城里人拼死活——宁静的秩序被打乱了，告别的仪式是悲壮的，农民们有权利与他们不了解的真相作最直接的斗争。 王金华派出一位有经验的老同志去做农民工作。老任不愧是“老动迁”专家，对动迁户的心理可谓一清二楚，他的嘴皮子能一溜烟念出几十条动迁政策。但农民们不买他的账，哗啦几十个庄稼汉与动迁人员扭打在一起，年轻的小张不知被哪里来的棍子打昏在地，“冲啊——”一声疯狂的叫嚷，刚刚租借搬了家的新区指挥部被占领了，一个粗大的嗓门在9楼指挥部的窗口边高喊道：“谁敢动我们的房子，就把谁从这里扔下去！” 新区管委会干部们目瞪口呆。 这时王金华来了。 所有目光聚到他的身上。 他说话了：“搬迁，肯定是没有商量余地的，这是市委的决策，也是全苏州人民未来的幸福需要，没有商量余地。但你们为啥不愿意搬呢？政策有问题？还是我们工作态度不好？” 闹事的农民说：“我们不是有意反对作梗，是你们说话不算数！” "What do you say?" “你们让我们搬家，可我们搬了之后住哪儿？” “怪了，不是已经安排你们房子住了吗？”王金华把目光移到老任的脸上。 “安置房子青黄不接，还有几套没落实。”老任说。 “扯淡！”从部队退伍回乡多年的王金华已经好久没这样骂了。但骂归骂，问题还是要解决的。于是他说：“第一，尚缺的安置房，在年内全部解决，保证家家户户能搬进新房子过年；第二，现在无法安身的几户，全部搬进我们指挥部最好的这个老四合院；第三，因为水灾，老四合院周边还是一片汪洋，抽水、排水的工作全部由管委会来负责。上面哪项工作没到位，你们拿扁担打我耳光！” “好，有你王主任这话，我们就搬了！”知理和通情的农民们爽快地答应了，他们说他们相信党和政府。 党和政府没有让这些农民们失望，搬迁工作做得精心细致。 “未来的新区建设得再好，如果不把动迁户的安置做好，那等于零。”王金华把市委、市政府的要求一直挂在嘴边上，每一个新区干部心里挂着这样一杆秤：新区要建在人民满意之上。 有多少委屈，有多少难题，他们从来没有计算过，因为他们所想的是：假如我的家被动迁了，我该怎么想？于是所有的困难、所有的愿望从自身的角度去为那些动迁户着想，问题就会解决好，解决得让人感动和满意。新区建设十几年来，动迁的有几万户，不能说没有一点矛盾和难题，但整体而言，是平静的，平静得像苏州人的性格一样，十分地温和。这要归结到苏州人办事的细腻，更要归结到他们能从动迁户的实际利益出发思考问题。为了考证王金华他们干的实效，我特意到了几个安置小区，同当年的动迁户聊了很长时间。他们告诉我：开始不理解，后来看到“政府”给他们盖的房子、安置的工作和社区的环境，以及现在生活在“天堂一样的新苏州”里，他们感到了满意。“是九分的满意。还有一分的不满意，是希望新区有更好的大发展。”一位70岁高龄的老伯风趣地对我这样说。 把镜头重新拉回新区开发初期的那个年份吧。 “明年”到了。老外们又一次来到苏州，再次见到王金华。 “王，我们可又来了啊！”老外笑眯眯地看着王金华，希望他不会食言。 “欢迎！走，我们去新区看看。”王金华走在最前头。 "Walk--" 浩浩荡荡的队伍，有说有笑。 这“明年”，其实只有三个月时间，因为上次老外们与王金华相约在去年的金秋时节，现今虽跨了一个年份，但实际距离春天的季节也就是3个多月的时间嘛！老外心想：你王再有本事还能把通天的路修好？ “哇，王，这15公里长的中环通、大环通是这3个月里建好的吗？”老外从面包车里下来，脚踩光滑宽阔的水泥大马路的那一瞬间，竟大呼小叫起来。 王金华平静地笑笑：“当然。难道还是上帝给修的？哈哈……我们是不相信有上帝的。” “厉害！王，你把昆山经验再次运用到了这里！了不得！有你这个速度，我们愿意投资！”老外们知道，在这样讲效益的地方，投资的结果就是成倍的美元和黄金。 “苏州速度”一时在外商中传开。于是，新区的招商开始渐成一股势不可挡的旋风…… 狮子山无愧苏州人气度。那座25层高的金狮大厦象征着新区的“激情燃烧岁月”全面开始。 “金狮”——不知是谁起的名字？但它让我产生联想：金是王金华的金，狮是狮子山的狮，这傲视在狮子山头的王金华及他的战友们在想什么呢？他们在那片曾经是一片荒地的乱石岗上耸立起来的一座可回望古城、可展视太湖烟波的高楼，想着荡气回肠的事业——打桩的夯声震天，溅起万顷波涛，飞卷惊天扬尘，搅得老城里的人纷纷赶来仰望新区“金狮”雄姿：10个月盖这么高的大楼呵！再过10年，这里还不变成大上海了？ 嘿嘿，我们要建的是一个新苏州城。全新的，争取超过上海！ 王金华心目中的上海是他永远的追求目标，在昆山时他这样想，到了苏州他还是这样想：苏州要赶上海，但苏州不是上海，苏州是文化与历史上的美丽之城。尤其是虎丘之邻、狮山脚下、太湖之滨的新苏州，它该是包孕吴越的文化和太湖的水韵，该是体现横塘的文脉和枫桥的辞章，在保持姑苏的那份永恒的清新优雅与款款流畅之间，寻找出东方威尼斯的巴黎风情和雕凿出具有太湖之大美的现代化文明新城。总之，一句话：新苏州，必须是与古城和谐共处于一地又各显风格的新都市；必须是接连世界最前沿信息，又能体现东方的江南文化元素的国际化经济与生活的城郭；还必须让土著百姓们时刻感受到温馨与安全、朝气与生机、新奇而异彩的家园，同时又让所有异乡新居民落脚生根在这里有种忘却一切的归宿感。 “城市要有体温。新苏州体现的是我们对这片土地的热忱、情感和创造。”王金华平时话不多，但他的目光和思维却是复杂而细腻，并且充满追求精致的智慧。这也是市委、市政府对新区的要求，更是苏州人民对新区的期待，自然还有那些最后选择苏州作为发展自己事业的外商和国商们的兴奋点。 创业是艰苦的，即使在“天堂”苏州，该吃的苦照样一样也不少。初到新区工作的人至今印象仍极其深刻：“王金华对我们说：你们来新区的第一个任务是要准备吃苦，吃尽所有的苦。然后他让有关人员发给我们每人一双雨鞋，因为当时我们的办公区四周都是一片汪洋。”新区赶上了改革开放的第三波浪潮——这就是以邓小平南巡讲话为契机的1992年中国再次思想大解放的年份。于是当时一批批雄心勃勃的外商和一家家世界500强企业纷纷选择了在苏州新区这块充满希望的热土进行投资。 1992年对新区创业者来说是个难忘的年份。这年11月，王金华从北京拿回了“国家高新技术产业开发区”这块国字头的金牌，小小四合院一片欢腾。当时的条件还很差，员工们连鞭炮都没买，他们是敲着饭碗庆贺的。“但气氛仍然令我们永生难忘。”王金华回忆说。 什么叫抓住机遇？新区后来的众多外资企业纷纷在此筑巢就是最好的解释：从“国家高新技术产业开发区”的金牌子挂起来那天开始，美国的普强、杜邦、高达，日本的松下、索尼、三菱、富士通、住友、沙克迪，德国的西门子、百林，英国的迈大、考陶尔兹，瑞士的罗技、迅达，台湾的宏基、声宝等等世界著名企业，项目达190个……这仅仅是三四年时间的成效。1996年8月，当联合国开发计划署高级顾问拉卡卡访问新区时，这样盛赞道：“高楼林立的苏州新区有着强大的吸引力，近300个外资企业项目和企业落户，总投资达30多亿美元，这在世界上也是极少有的奇迹。你们这里就像一个小'联合国'。” 苏州新区的“小联合国”别称就这样叫开了。 这一年，苏州新区宾客盈门，而且都是些国际大师级的人物——人类进步基金出版与交流负责人、美国著名小说家苏盖，法国和美国科学院院士沙士雄，哈佛大学林赛……他们漫步在古老的京杭大运河旁，感觉着东方新世界的万千种经济与文化、与自然交融的那种奇妙、新鲜和兴奋。因为他们所处的摩天大厦群林，与粉墙黛瓦的老苏州近在咫尺，那些通天大道又与旁边的小桥流水交错相通……他们认为这是世界上“绝无仅有的”美景。 那年春，不大出门的苏州籍作家陆文夫听说苏州狮子山旁搞了个“新苏州”，起初他不太相信，后来他去了。去之后文夫先生大惊而赞，数着指头说：姑苏2500年，新苏州建设2500天，于是他脱口而出了一句经典之语：2500年风风雨雨造就了一个老苏州，2500个日日夜夜创造了一个新苏州。 “新苏州”后来一直被沿用至今。文汇报记者到新区采访，看着太湖之滨这片耸于山水之间的现代化新城，感慨万千地写下了这样一个标题：“真山真水园中城”。 无论是作家的惊叹，还是记者的描述，他们都给新区的崛起注释了一个共同的元素：速度与精美。 据1997年环保部门统计，新区的绿化率达35％，远超了国家标准。许多老外投资者第一次到新区，不是奔王金华的“总裁”办公室，而是急着登狮子山，急着一览天平、花山、何山、横山等群峰秀岭，要不就是驱车到开放式的绿地游索山、玉山、天狮等湖景山水公园…… 这里是公园还是厂区呢？是广场还是小区呢？他们被新颖、美妙的“苏式”开发区深深吸引，甚至时常怀疑自己的视觉。“在这样的地方办企业，获得的将是生命质量与经济效益的双重丰收。”外国企业家们如此评说。 “以绿意造园，是我们新区的一大理念。这既借鉴了欧美风格，又传承了水乡苏州的特色。绿树、绿色块条多，又充分引入开放式大公园的格局，使得新区每年保证有300天的绿期。古苏州是以园林'雨打芭蕉'、'梧桐知秋'、'岁寒三友'的千古绝唱达到一种文化和古典的结合，新区以绿意加园林，从而创造一种'锦绣大地'的气氛和自然特色，你看我们这里的植物造型吸收的是大色块的绿地风格，如海之墨色的雪松林，晚霞一般的红枫林，一片片桂花香，一片片橘子黄，嵌入来自美洲风情的美女樱，如此锦绣被植物的红、黄、蓝、紫组合成一体，远观如万紫千红的花地毯铺就，近看恰似置身于花木丛间，美不胜收。”新区人一谈起他们的美景，总滔滔不绝，令人陶醉。 仅仅几年时间，沉默了数千年的狮子山，从冬眠似的冥寂中睁开幼稚的倦眼，转瞬间蓦然回首一眼，但知这里已是天翻地覆…… 今天的苏州新区建设者和创业者，他们最愿意向外人显耀的是这里的科技含量。“要说我们的苏州高新园区能使狮子山这片曾经是苏州北大荒的地方呈现出今天这个样子，关键还是我们这儿的高新技术发挥了催化作用。” how do I say this? “高新高新，自然文章在'高'与'新'上。'高'，意味着我们的开发区从一开始就瞄准国际先进水平，这是指的引进企业的高端水准；'新'，是指产业的建立与趋向必须是当今世界最前沿的最先进的技术定位。”现任苏州高新园区工委书记王竹鸣用“很园区”的语言给我介绍：从1992年建立新区的那天起，王金华等老一代创业者就坚定地按照市委、市政府确定的“科技优先”战略。紧紧围绕“发展高科技，实现产业化”的目标，在实际工作中坚定不移地推进科技自主创新，加快聚集新产业、建立新体制、建设新城区，构筑国际平台的思路与实践，因而使得高新区真正在“高”与“新”上呈现五彩缤纷的璀璨光芒。 在采访新区时，我看了一部长期在新区工作的苏州作家徐卓人写的《归国留学生部落》的书，记述的是一批具有国际领先水平的归国留学生在苏州高新园区创业和成就大业的事迹，因而在苏州高新区内形成了一个“中国留学生部落”群体。这个群体现在已达数百人之多，他们几乎都是清一色的在国外卓有科研成果的归国留学博士、专家。“由这些留学博士带出来的专家与科研人员，今天已经达到近万人的具有世界级水平的研发人员和科技队伍，是我们高新园区最大的资本。”王竹鸣一谈起这个话题，两眼放光。 “我们现在有一年近2000亿的工业产值，有一年100多亿的财政收入，靠的主力产业就是高新科技。我们有六大创新载体：苏州科技城、苏南工业技术研究园、苏州环保产业园、苏州创业园、留学生产业园、苏州高新创意园。它们涵盖了电子软件、生物医药、新材料新能源、汽车研发与关键零部件、废弃物循环再利用等八大世界级先进科技专业产业工程，其中最引人骄傲的是已经体现市场能力的十大自主产品群体：高功率动力锂离子电池、新一代网络安全技术开发、碳硅铝纤维与碳纤维、光刻胶、第三代移动通讯、CPU核心应用技术、生物医药产品、动漫产品、振动及环境实验设备、新一代高分辨数码有机光导鼓等。”新区主人对这些技术与产业的专业词语如数家珍，我们有的很难听懂，但一旦换成具体的和实用的例子来说明时，所有的外行人都会为他们而感到骄傲—— 比如中国的“神舟号”飞船在飞向太空前需要进行振动试验，这振动试验台就产自苏州高新园区的苏州东菱振动公司。这振动试验台达16吨重，过去一直被欧美国家所垄断。我们的归国留学生在苏州高新园区内给它搞出来、搞成功了。“神舟”飞船能够一次次飞向太空，这振动试验台功不可没。 比如现在我们使用电子复印机、电子照相机等电子设备每天都会用到的成像有机光导鼓，过去一直是外国企业的专利，苏州恒久光电科技有限公司的小伙子们搞成了中国自己的顶级水平的OPC生产线——第一条拥有中国自主知识产权的、年产100支鼓的高度自动化生产线。 比如一个名为“中国芯”的32位嵌入式CPU电子核心技术，也是由苏州国芯电子有限公司用几年时间在苏州高新园区搞成的，它的技术含量与世界先进芯片不分上下，其功耗全球最低，从而打破了“中国有机亿万台而没有一个芯”的尴尬局面。 比如被称为“通讯喉咙”的语音网络、数字网络、图像网络“三网合一”技术的“DSL—4000｜4010综合复用设备”，也是由苏州科达通信技术发展有限公司成功开发的，它已经成为中国国家电子政务Ｔ100强——视讯类第一名。 比如博瑞生物医药技术有限公司生产的“恩屈西他宾”药物，成为中国抗艾滋病和乙肝病毒新药，同样打破了国外公司垄断，其成本和药效都优于世界同类药物。这“恩屈西他宾”听起来名字有些怪怪，但它对艾滋病患者和乙肝病患者来说，就是“上帝”送来的福音…… 所有这些，都出自苏州新区，出自我们的那些归国留学
