Core Viewpoint - The establishment of Boro County as Guangdong's first "trillion-yuan county" by 2025 marks a historic breakthrough in the province's county-level economic revitalization, with a projected GDP of over 1,000 billion yuan, breaking the previous trend of having no trillion-yuan counties in the leading economic province of China [1][2]. Economic Growth and Goals - Boro County's GDP is expected to grow from 741.46 billion yuan in 2021 to 952.24 billion yuan in 2024, and then exceed 1,000 billion yuan in 2025 [1]. - The GDP target for Boro County during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period is set at 1,600 billion yuan, with industrial output surpassing 3,600 billion yuan and over 900 high-tech enterprises established [2]. Industrial Development - Boro County has established five industrial clusters worth over 100 billion yuan each, focusing on new-generation electronic information, intelligent equipment, and modern food industries [2]. - The county is actively attracting industrial projects from developed cities like Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Dongguan, positioning itself as a key player in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area [2]. Regional Economic Context - As of 2024, there are 62 trillion-yuan counties in China, with 21 "quasi-trillion-yuan counties" having GDPs exceeding 900 billion yuan [2]. - Compared to provinces like Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Guangdong's county-level economic scale and industrial levels have significant room for improvement, influenced by the economic contributions of the Pearl River Delta region [2]. Policy and Strategic Initiatives - The Guangdong Provincial Government has initiated the "Hundred Counties, Thousand Towns, and Ten Thousand Villages High-Quality Development Project" to promote coordinated urban-rural development and enhance county-level economic strength [2][3].
