It was learned from the Development and Reform Commission of Hunan Province on October 10 that since this June, key cities within old revolutionary base areas of Hunan Province have actively promoted paired cooperation with Guangdong Province and Jiangsu Province.  Hunan's Zhangjiajie City and Jiangsu's Nanjing City, and Hunan's Chenzhou City and Guangdong's Foshan City have paired up, and the collaboration has been steadily advancing.

Zhangjiajie and Nanjing had in-depth exchanges on the building of Zhangjiajie-Nanjing Industrial Park and the establishment of Zhangjiajie Rural Revitalization Hall in Nanjing, reaching phased results. The industrial cooperation between the two cities has achieved remarkable results. Since the resumption of direct flights from Nanjing to Zhangjiajie this June, there were 357 flights launched on the route, with a total passenger throughput of 38,126. Nanjing, who planned to send 100,000 Nanjing people to visit Zhangjiajie, will organize a group to attend the first Hunan Tourism Development Conference.

Chenzhou and Foshan carried out a series of exchanges and visits. Foshan led a delegation to attend the 2022 Chenzhou Entrepreneurs Conference and the 10th China (Hunan) International Mineral and Gem Expo. The two cities jointly drew up the "Framework Agreement on Paired Cooperation Between the People's Government of Foshan City and the People's Government of Chenzhou City", the "Foshan City and Chenzhou City Paired Cooperation Work Plan (2022-2026)", and other documents, and reached an in-depth consensus on promoting the high-quality economic and social development of the two sides.

This May, the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Work Plan for Paired Cooperation Between Key Cities Within Old Revolutionary Base Areas". This aims to promote the establishment of paired cooperative relations between 20 key cities in the old revolutionary base areas and those in the developed regions. Among them, Chenzhou City (the old revolutionary base of Hunan and Jiangxi border areas) has paired up with Foshan City, while Zhangjiajie City (the old revolutionary base of Hunan, Hubei, Chongqing, and Guizhou border areas) with Nanjing City. The paired cooperation period is from 2022 to 2030.
