People’s Daily Online, Beijing, December 13 According to the official website of the National Bureau of Statistics, according to the analysis of the results of the fourth national economic census, the industrial orientation and division of labor among Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei have become increasingly clear, and the level of industrial integration between regions has gradually improved.
First, the regional industrial structure of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei has been continuously optimized
(1) The number of legal entities has continued to grow steadily.
By the end of 2018, there were 2.431 million legal entities engaged in secondary and tertiary industry activities in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, an increase of 90.5% over the end of 2013 (the year of the third national economic census, the same below). It accounted for 11.2% of the national legal entities, 0.6 percentage points lower than the end of 2013. In terms of regions, the number of corporate units in the secondary and tertiary industries in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei was 989,000, 291,000 and 1.151 million, respectively, up by 57.5%, 37.2% and 163.9% compared with the end of 2013, and Hebei became the main driving force for unit growth in the region.
(B) The tertiary industry has become an important support for the regional development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
By the end of 2018, there were 435,000 legal entities in the secondary industry and 1.996 million legal entities in the tertiary industry in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, accounting for 17.9% and 82.1% of the total legal entities in the secondary and tertiary industries respectively; Among them, the proportion of corporate units in the tertiary industry is 3.3 percentage points higher than the national average (78.8%).

(C) Leasing and business services and high-tech services are relatively high in concentration.
By the end of 2018, there were 324,000 legal entities in the leasing and business services, scientific research and technology services, information transmission software and information technology services in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, 232,000 and 134,000 legal entities, accounting for 13.3%, 9.5% and 5.5% of the legal entities in the secondary and tertiary industries, which were 1.6%, 3.6% and 1.3% higher than the same industries in China, respectively, indicating business services and high-tech services.

Second, the pattern of regional industrial division of labor in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei is becoming increasingly clear
The development trend of regional industries in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei conforms to their respective functional orientation, and a good regional division of labor pattern has taken shape.
(A) The trend of high-end industries in Beijing is obvious.
The dominant position of the tertiary industry is very obvious. By the end of 2018, there were 61,000 legal entities in the secondary and tertiary industries in Beijing and 928,000 in Beijing, of which the tertiary industry accounted for 93.9%, 15.1 percentage points higher than the national average, 11.8 percentage points higher than the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei regional average and 2.1 percentage points higher than that in 2013.
High-tech service industries and cultural industries are increasingly concentrated. By the end of 2018, scientific research and technical services, information transmission software and information technology services, culture, sports and entertainment accounted for 15.6%, 7.8% and 5.5% of the legal entities in the secondary and tertiary industries in Beijing, up 4.3, 0.2 and 1.2 percentage points respectively from the end of 2013.
Beijing’s position as a scientific and technological innovation center and cultural center has become more and more stable. The status of traditional industries has declined. Wholesale and retail, leasing and business services accounted for 27.7% and 18.7% of the legal entities in Beijing’s secondary and tertiary industries, respectively, down 2.7 and 2.8 percentage points from the end of 2013.
(B) the rapid improvement of Tianjin’s service industry
The tertiary industry increased significantly. At the end of 2018, there were 233,000 legal entities in the tertiary industry in Tianjin, accounting for 80.0% of the legal entities in the secondary and tertiary industries in Tianjin, up 5.4 percentage points from the end of 2013, and the increase rate was 3.3 and 6.4 percentage points higher than that in Beijing and Hebei.
The high-tech service industry is growing rapidly. Scientific research and technical services, information transmission software and information technology services accounted for 8.9% and 6.1% of the legal entities in Tianjin’s secondary and tertiary industries, up 2.1 and 2.4 percentage points respectively from the end of 2013.
The financial and transportation industries have obvious comparative advantages. The location entropy of monetary and financial services, multimodal transport and transportation agency, water transportation and other industries is higher than 3.0, and the degree of agglomeration is high. As a demonstration area of financial innovation and operation and a core area of northern international shipping, Tianjin’s core functions are increasingly obvious.

(C) The rapid development of advanced manufacturing in Hebei
The secondary industry has obvious advantages. At the end of 2018, there were 316,000 legal entities in the secondary industry in Hebei, accounting for 27.4% of the legal entities in the secondary and tertiary industries, 6.2 percentage points higher than the national average, 9.5 percentage points higher than the average level in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, and 1.0 percentage points higher than the end of 2013.
High-tech manufacturing industry is making rapid efforts. At the end of 2018, there were 7,000 high-tech manufacturing corporations in Hebei, accounting for 52.7% of the total high-tech manufacturing corporations in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. The number of high-tech manufacturing units in chemical raw materials and chemical products manufacturing, electrical machinery and equipment manufacturing and pharmaceutical manufacturing accounts for 65.0%, 64.1% and 58.8% of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region respectively.
Mining and traditional manufacturing industries have a relatively high degree of agglomeration, but the agglomeration situation has slowed down. Compared with the end of 2013, the location entropy of the top ten industries in Hebei Province decreased significantly, including ferrous metal mining, non-ferrous metal mining and non-metallic mineral mining, which decreased by 0.8, 0.8 and 0.7 points respectively.

Third, the degree of industrial synergy in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region has been continuously improved
(A) the effect of industrial integration is remarkable
The coordinated strategy of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei has effectively promoted the integration and development of units. In the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, the number of corporate units in the three places has increased rapidly across provinces (cities). By the end of 2018, there were 16,000 industrial activity units across provinces (cities) in the region, accounting for 5.5% of the total industrial activity units in the region, an increase of 180.2% over the end of 2013.
(B) Beijing has obvious spillover effects on Tianjin and Hebei.
In terms of regions, there are 12,000 industrial activity units of Beijing legal entity in Tianjin and Hebei, 3,000 industrial activity units of Tianjin legal entity in Beijing and Hebei, and 1,000 industrial activity units of Hebei legal entity in Beijing and Tianjin, accounting for 76.5%, 15.9% and 7.6% of the total inter-provincial (city) industrial activity units in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei legal entity region respectively. Beijing plays an important role in regional industrial integration. Compared with the end of 2013, the number of industrial activity units of Beijing legal entities in Tianjin and Hebei increased by 225.9%, which was 108.9 and 170.6 percentage points higher than that of Tianjin and Hebei respectively.
(C) Modern service industry has gradually become a key area of inter-provincial (city) investment.
In terms of industries, among the inter-provincial (city) industrial activity units in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, the proportion of traditional service industry has gradually decreased, while the proportion of modern service industry has increased significantly. Among them, the total number of industrial activity units in wholesale and retail, accommodation and catering industry was 0.4 million, accounting for 25.9%, down 6.1 percentage points from the end of 2013; Leasing and business services, scientific research and technical services, information transmission software and information technology services industry activity units totaled 7,000, accounting for 41.1%, up 12.4 percentage points from the end of 2013.
