If Hangzhou really wants to build "China's Silicon Valley", it must start with the details in the government's services to do fine, from small start, Hangzhou should be like the West Lake, is not only exquisite, but also open, if you want to like the Summer Palace in Beijing, visit the words have to accept a ticket, it is not our Hangzhou.

Hangzhou, as one of the gathering place of the Hangzhouwan information port, by the Xiaoshan District People's government wholly invested in the official opening since January 15, 2014, has attracted, including China's largest cloud computing home platform number of China, registered capital of 150 million of the pocket shopping, Internet Medical treatment Platform Registration network, such as 228 start-up enterprises settled in.

Why do these startups choose Hangzhou? Why did they settle in Hangzhouwan Harbor? What policy endorsement did the park and the government provide for it? What are the similarities and differences between Hangzhou and Shenzhen and Silicon Valley? What are some of the key factors in Hangzhou's entrepreneurial innovation?

In this connection, the 21st century Economic report reporter interviewed Hangzhouwan Port Development Center Director Han Menglong, hope that through the park's samples can provide reference for other areas of entrepreneurial innovation services. Han Menglong In the interview that the Software and information services, such as the focus of the enterprise cluster, will drive the transformation and upgrading of the traditional manufacturing industry in Hangzhou, the development of Hangzhou to inject new elements.

The "garden" attracts

"21st century": what is the location of Hangzhouwan Harbor? After all, the national park looks like a lot.

Han Menglong: We all know that Xiaoshan is a very powerful traditional industrial economy, Xiaoshan's traditional industrial output accounted for more than 1/10 of Zhejiang, accounting for the entire industrial output of Hangzhou, 1/3, the original development model by sacrificing a large number of resources as the price.

In this context, Xiaoshan proposed to build Hangzhouwan information port, the focus is to create a new engine driven by scientific and technological innovation, as well as "industrialization and information" of the two deep integration of the demonstration area, the main industry is the software and services related, these emerging technologies, most of which can be used in traditional industries and development.

21st Century: What is the current development plan of Hangzhouwan Harbor?

Han Menglong: Now the land is the government allocation of land, the first phase of the project, 110,000 square meters, investment 360 million yuan, the second phase of the project, 170,000 square meters, investment 650 million yuan, we have three period, 220,000 square meters. We plan to pass 3-5 years of construction, in early 2018 a total of three period of volume reached 500,000 square meters, through 5-6 years of efforts, we intend to reach 1 million square meters, Zhejiang Province is the largest technology landmark.

Xiaoshan traditional industry 600 billion, if we can Hangzhouwan in the industry faculties, this power explosion is endless.

"21st Century": will venture enterprises into the port, hoping to achieve what kind of goal?

Han Menglong: We have more than 100 enterprises, which are representative of the registration network, we call China's current mobile health care in the field of the largest medical platform, Recently added 130 million U.S. dollars, pocket shopping, investment 400 million U.S. dollars, registered capital of 150 million U.S. dollars, real mobile shopping, network Sheng Technology, is going to build China's largest mass commodity trading platform, the number of China, China's largest cloud computing home design platform, also here.

These leading enterprises, will drive a large number of start-up companies, attract a large number of entrepreneurial talent, accelerate the pace of entry into Hangzhou.

"21st century": what is the basic requirements of the port of the enterprise to be settled?

Han Menglong: First, industry positioning must be in line with our positioning, as of the end of December 2014 we introduced 228 enterprises, 122 are the next generation of information technology and software information services-oriented enterprises, of which 41 are E-commerce enterprises, of which 65 are intelligent medical devices and biotechnology classes, On these three major categories.

Of course, the development potential of enterprises, registered capital, the establishment of a certain number of requirements, but if a project is good enough, we can consider the exemption of rent. It is our original intention to attract the good entrepreneurial enterprises here.

21st Century: What services and support will be available to the enterprises that are settled in?

Han Menglong: For example, a company rents more than 2 million square meters, may require it to have more than 5 million yuan of registered capital, if it is a university student start-up enterprises, such as the Zhejiang General Assembly of innovative projects, these projects are very growth, but it has just begun to register funds can not have so much, Then it can be applied to us, we can have a choice, such as the top five of the college student Entrepreneurship competition, such as the IBM Innovation competition in Zhejiang division of the top five, these enterprises, we can rent-free.

"21st century": you contact so many entrepreneurial enterprises and projects, do you think the overall entrepreneurial atmosphere in Hangzhou has changed?

Han Menglong: In the cluster, from just the beginning of the establishment, many enterprises with a skeptical attitude, many enterprises on the traffic, recruitment and so there are doubts, to now slowly mature, in a group of leading enterprises, many upstream and downstream enterprises naturally came over.

A place to develop an industry, not the province's leadership or the introduction of a number of policies can be, but need to have a certain industrial base.

21st Century: How about the talent structure here?

Han Menglong: Last year we introduced two national thousand people plan, and a provincial thousand people plan. Many are PhD, graduate students, many are software information industry talent.

With details dependents

"21st century": What is the difference between the entrepreneurial atmosphere in Hangzhou and other regions?

Han Menglong: Grassroots, market-oriented color thick. 2014 World Internet Conference in Wu Town, Zhejiang and Hangzhou may have some advantages in the future.

In addition, the service-oriented government in Hangzhou has done quite well, but there is still a lack of innovation awareness. For example, Hangzhou's public transport, although Xiaoshan has been included in the main city of Hangzhou, but the district and the opening of a bus line is still difficult. We envision how the park solves the problem of transportation, the introduction of bus lanes or public bikes, and so on, but the park alone cannot hold the whole innovative city, or the government should innovate in the service consciousness.

"21st Century": the introduction and attention to entrepreneurship, High-tech, the government's attitude has not undergone a longitudinal change?

Han Menglong: Yes. The service consciousness and level of Hangzhou government is still relatively high, the government of Jiangsu is a powerful government, and the government of Zhejiang is a service-oriented government, and the enterprise will not be interfered by the government too much.

"21st century": Hangzhou so many entrepreneurial projects, the failure rate is very high, these entrepreneurial regardless of success or not, can insist on what to rely on?

Han Menglong: The key is to see the company's own practice. We introduced 228 companies last year, and if 28 of them were successful, 8 of them, like the example companies I just mentioned, would have been good.

The key to success is to find the needs of the people, find the people's pain point, such as quick taxi, drop a taxi, is a taxi difficult problem, as well as registered network, is to solve the problem of difficult medical treatment for the common people, the government management of hospital management doctors also difficult problem. Number of China, but also found a home decoration difficult pain point.

Second, to focus on development, the third to have the feasibility, four to understand the "abundant, The Daw" the truth. If it is such a business, there is no reason not to succeed, sooner or later.

If the enterprise is not successful, it is the enterprise itself, if not successful here, then another place will be successful, just like Alibaba, in Shanghai unsuccessful, not successful in Beijing, it returned to Hangzhou to succeed. This shows that the local entrepreneurial environment in Hangzhou is still possible.

21st Century: Is it possible for Hangzhou to become a "City of Creation", and the gap between it and the city of the Silicon Valley and other creators?

Han Menglong: First, Silicon Valley, after all, there are so many famous universities, Hangzhou side only Zhejiang University is more famous, in fact, Hangzhou is so near to Shanghai, can completely put Shanghai's university talent also into the under, Fudan University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, East China University of Political science and political resources can be used for us

Second, from the environmental point of view, in fact, Hangzhou's environment compared to the Silicon Valley is not bad much.

Third, with the gradual improvement of China's economic environment, in fact, many of the original emigrants have gradually returned home, these overseas students will certainly go to find a start-up place, the local government's service environment must be better.

If Hangzhou really wants to build "China's Silicon Valley", it must start with the details in the government's services to do fine, from small start, Hangzhou should be like the West Lake, is not only exquisite, but also open, if you want to like the Summer Palace in Beijing, visit the words have to accept a ticket, it is not our Hangzhou.
