Impact of Industrial Upgrading O a Case Study for the Jinan Prior 2021 International Conference on Business Management, Humanities and Education Engineering (BMHEE 2021) Impact of Industrial Upgrading on Urban Function and Layout - A Case Study for the Jinan Prior Zone for Replacing Old Growth Drivers with New Ones Jingdong Hu* and Youfa Chen Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts, Shanghai University, Shanghai, 200072, China *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract. Urban upgrading promotes the metabolism of urban functional elements, and then the urban layout is adjusted and relocated. A series of urban development activities have the regularity. Taking the Prior Zone for Replacing Old Growth Drivers with New Ones in Jinan as an example, this paper attempts to discuss the direct effect of urban industrial upgrading on the city and its impact. As the case analyzed is in the stage of construction and implementation, the research logic is more inclined to observation and inference. It is more contemporary to sort out the effects of industrial upgrading on the city, and it is more timely to derive the conclusion on the impact of urban function and layout. Keywords: Urban industry; Urban function; Urban layout; Replacing Old Growth Drivers With New Ones. 1. Introduction In the 2020s, urban development and planning focus on reviewing the past and looking forward to the future. Looking at the world, the international situation seems calm and peaceful, and yet it is still difficult to cover up the objective fact that the global economic development is sluggish. The potential competition and hidden competition between cities are going on at all levels. In order to seek the rapid development of the city, macro-control and reform is essential. A city is the habitat of civilization, the habitat of most human beings, and the incubator for the iterative renewal of science, technology, culture and emerging technology. The industrial structure, elements and relationship chain of a city have always been the key research objects of urban planning and design. As most urban maladies are attributed to middle and low-end industries with lower industrial level, cities gradually realize that their industrial level and development destiny are closely related to each other, and they have joined the ranks of urban industrial upgrading. Industrial upgrading will inevitably lead to the reconstruction of many levels of urban morphology. This work focuses on the impact of urban function and layout (Fig. 1). Figure 1. The impact logic of industrial upgrading on urban function and layout 2. The Concept and Connotation of the Urban Industrial Upgrading The concept of urban industry is integrated with its own structure and layout. Urban industry is similar to the functional system of organism, which is the mechanism of interweaving and working together. Industrial structure refers to the proportion and combination degree among industries and among industries within them. Combined with the characteristics of the times, the upgrading 1 Published by BCP © 2021 the Authors. iteration of urban industry is to re-position the urban industry, adjust the industrial structure and category ratio, and re-formulate the plan of urban production and life. Nowadays, the urban industrial structure gradually begins to appear the feature of demarcation, and the industry tends to the mode of integrated development [1]. Urban industrial upgrading is a "golden trump card" to attract talents, technology, capital and resources in the process of urban development. At present, there are many practice cases of urban industrial upgrading, and the specific forms are also very complex. The leading levels of upgrading measures are also different. For example, the industrial upgrading led by the city itself is mainly manifested in the industrial upgrading of resource-based cities. The heritage of the industrialization era has been gradually eliminated by the information age, and the resource-based cities with single economic structure have gradually transformed themselves into cities dominated by emerging industries [2]. Then, there is the industrial upgrading led by the national strategy, which is mainly manifested in the experimental area of industrial kinetic energy conversion, such as the comprehensive experimental area of new and old kinetic energy conversion in Shandong. 3. Urban Function and Layout Urban function is generally defined as the role that a city can play in the social and economic life within the scope of a country or region. Urban layout refers to the arrangement of different properties plots within the jurisdiction of a city according to its basic functional zoning. It can be seen that there is a dialectical and unified relationship between the function and layout of the city. Facts have proved that urban functions and urban layout in the context of modern life are beginning to subvert the tradition. Traditional urban material functions are divided into four major functions: residence, work, recreation and transportation [3]. With the advent of the information age, urban industries are actively engaged in upgrading and transformation, and thus the functional elements are constantly expanding, and then the urban layout needs to be adjusted. 4. Specific Characterization of Urban Industrial Upgrading: Jinan Prior Zone For Replacing Old Growth Drivers With New Ones The comprehensive pilot zone of new and old kinetic energy conversion in Shandong is a comprehensive pilot zone for regional national development strategy. Also, it is the first regional development strategy comprehensive pilot zone with the theme of new and old kinetic energy conversion in China. Jinan pilot zone is the implementation leader of Shandong comprehensive pilot zone for new and old kinetic energy conversion. 4.1 Jinan Prior Zone For Replacing Old Growth Drivers With New Ones Jinan Prior Zone for new and old kinetic energy conversion in Jinnan is located in the north of Jinan City, Shandong Province. The area under its jurisdiction spans both sides of the Yellow River, starting from Xiaoqing River in the south, Tuhai River in the north, Yupu River in the west, and the eastern boundary of Lingang in the east, with a total area of about 1030 square kilometers (Fig. 2). The pilot zone is located in the north of the old urban area in Jinan, bordering Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei in the north and Nantong Yangtze River Delta in the south. It is 240 kilometers away from Xiongan New District and can be reached by high-speed railway in one hour. It is located in the center of the Beijing-Shanghai Economic Corridor (Fig. 3). The traffic network in the pilot zone is mature. At present, there are four expressways: Qingyin Expressway, Jinan Ring Expressway, Beijing-Shanghai Expressway and Donglv Expressway. There are two high-speed railways: Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway and Shijiazhuang-Jinan passenger dedicated line. It is adjacent to Jinan Yaoqiang international airport in the east, Jinan west railway station in the west, and Shijiazhuang-Jinan passenger dedicated line new east railway station and Jinan railway station in the south. 2 Figure 2. The Prior Zone map - adapted from Jinan Municipal People's Government website Figure 3. The Prior Zone geographical location analysis - adapted from Jinan Municipal People's Government website Before the establishment of the new and old kinetic energy pilot zone policy, the urban layout of Jinan expands to the east and west with the main urban area as the center. The old urban area has the "world's first spring scenic spot", focusing on the development of cultural tourism industry. In the west to Changqing region, it focuses on the academic education of "university base town" and the bio-medicine and medical care and health industry represented by "international medical science center". "Southern mountain area" pays attention to ecological protection and agricultural production. The eastern region is most heavily affected, covering the big data and new-generation information technology, intelligent manufacturing and high-end equipment, science and technology service industries led by the National Supercomputing Jinan Center and Qilu Software Park, as well as the financial and securities industry led by the Jinan Central Business District. However, the northern region has been unable to solve the problem of developing north across the Yellow River. Therefore, the north bank of the Yellow River has undoubtedly become a gathering place of backward industries, and the operation of industrial self-run factories has been carried out on a large scale. The disadvantages of backward industries are increasingly exposed here. The industrial 3 efficiency is low, but the natural cost is high, and the economic effect is gradually unable to support the operation of urban areas. Therefore, the construction of the new and old energy conversion pilot zone is put on the agenda. It will become a new power engine and open frontier, lead the innovation and development, and comprehensively help Jinan from the "Daming Lake era" to the "Yellow River era". The pilot zone planning and construction of the action guide is "development along the river", and the area under the jurisdiction is spread out along the Yellow River in the north of Jinan City. The pilot zone is divided into two parts by the Yellow River: 300 square kilometers to the south and 730 square kilometers to the north. 450 square kilometers of the 730 square kilometers in the north are designated as the direct management area of the pilot zone. In planning organization, "three teams" have been set up (i.e., "international team" composed of SWECO, McKinsey and SOM, "national team" composed of CAUPD, ECADI and Industry Institute of National Development and Reform Commission, and "local team" composed of Provincial Academy of Sciences, Municipal Planning Academy and Municipal Council), realizing the multi-dimensional integration of planning concept, vision, technology and practice [5]. This policy planning is bound to bring dramatic changes for Jinan, and all parties are looking forward to the final test results [6-7]. The industrial upgrading program aims to create a universal "model", and thus the construction concept completely ignores the echo of Jinan local culture.
