In the context of the construction of the Hainan Free Trade Port, the market has put forward diversified demands for the supply of natural resources, which has promoted the reform of land allocation methods.
China News Service, Haikou, September 11 (Reporter Wang Ziqian) Recently, reporters visited the CNNC Hainan Industrial Cooperation Demonstration Zone in Changjiang Li Autonomous County, Hainan. Hainan Haishun Plastic Industry Co., Ltd. is debugging production equipment and will soon put into production supporting equipment for deep-sea aquaculture. "We don't need to acquire land to build a new factory, we only need to rent high-standard factory buildings." Wang Yingpeng, technical consultant of Haishun Plastic Industry, told China News Network reporters that this "move-in with your bags" approach saves companies a lot of costs.
The construction of Hainan Free Trade Port is advancing steadily, and the market has put forward diversified demands for the supply of natural resources. Reporters have recently learned from interviews in many places on the island that Hainan is exploring diversified allocation methods such as combined supply, above-ground and underground layered supply, pricing and investment, and its ability to manage natural resource elements in a refined manner continues to improve.
Flexible supply: "accurate adaptation" to industry needs
In the past, market operators mostly adopted the traditional model to acquire land, which was relatively simple. Today, Hainan is exploring flexible and diversified land supply methods to accurately adapt to the differentiated needs of different industries and entities.
Youwen Village, Nanfeng Town, Danzhou City, plans to build a rural agricultural tourism product sales center, covering an area of 2.35 acres. If the village collective obtains this retail commercial land in the traditional way, it will need to pay a one-time land transfer fee of 2.05 million yuan, making it difficult to raise funds.
The "Hainan Province Industrial Land Lease First and Later Transfer Management Implementation Rules" provides a solution. According to the relevant person in charge of the Huanwan Section of the Danzhou Municipal Natural Resources and Planning Bureau, the project adopts a lease-before-transfer method, with a five-year lease period initially set, and the annual rent determined at 5% of the total land price. In this way, the village collective only bears a small land cost in the early stage for construction and operation, and the remaining payment will be made after the project matures.
Under the lease-before-lease policy, the Youwen Village Agricultural Tourism Product Sales Center project has advanced rapidly, and professional operators have been successfully introduced. Li Yanlong, the first secretary of Youwen Village, said that in the future, the village collective will receive "fixed dividends + profit dividends", and villagers will be able to work nearby.
In Wanning, the flexible supply of resource elements is reflected in the transformation from "separate transfer" to "combined supply". The city's Dongling Farm has high-quality drinking natural mineral water resources. Under the traditional "separate transfer" of mineral rights and land, companies must apply for two separate approvals. Poor connection in one link may delay the overall project development.
In order to resolve this contradiction, Wanning City optimized the allocation of natural resource elements and packaged mining rights and construction land for transfer in June this year. The relevant person in charge of the enterprise said that this move will help simplify the approval process, shorten the development cycle, and also reduce conflicts and disputes.
"In the next step, we will also expand the scope of packaging and explore the packaging of forests, sea areas and other resources and land, so that more resource advantages can be transformed into development advantages." Lin Wu, the relevant person in charge of the Wanning Municipal Natural Resources and Planning Bureau, said.
Equity innovation: Let land resources “generate gold” early
On the basis of flexible land supply, Hainan actively activates resource factors and drives industrial development through innovation in equity mechanisms.
Under the sea defense forest in Danchangyuan Village, Sigeng Town, Dongfang City, thousands of native chickens of farmer Wen Yite are freely foraging for food. In June this year, Wen Yite obtained the city's first real estate certificate for the management rights of underforest space, which gave him the confidence to expand the scale of breeding.
Dongfang City has a solid foundation for the forest economy and industry, but the ownership of the management rights of the forest space is unclear, which discourages social capital. Sun Xueya, director of the Forestry Service Center of the Dongfang Municipal Natural Resources and Planning Bureau, said that through innovative rights confirmation and clarifying the boundaries of property rights under the forest, the city has achieved a win-win situation for ecological protection, industrial development, and people's benefit.
In the CNNC Hainan Industrial Cooperation Demonstration Zone, innovation in resource factor allocation models has also stimulated development momentum. Lin Shuqi, head of the owner's rights and development and utilization section of the Natural Resources and Planning Bureau of Changjiang Li Autonomous County, said that the park has optimized the traditional one-time transfer model and injected 96.99 acres of government reserve land into the park development enterprises in the form of "valuation investment", and then rented it out uniformly, forming a land supply path of "state-owned land pricing, unified operation of state-owned enterprises, and light enterprise settlement".
Under the new land supply model, the park has built more than 30,000 square meters of standard factory buildings. "We have achieved the goal of attracting investment upon completion and putting into production upon attracting investment. Enterprises can save the investment in buying land and building factories, and can carry out research and development and expand the market with ease." Fu Yuanhui, deputy director of the Investment Promotion Bureau of Changjiang Clean Energy High-tech Industrial Park, said that the park currently has many companies such as Beijing Institute of Chemical Industry and Metallurgy of the Nuclear Industry and China National Nuclear Corporation Ersan Construction Co., Ltd. settled in the park.
Hierarchical supply: seeking space from “down” and benefits from “up”
The reporter also noticed that Hainan is making a fuss about the spatial dimension of natural resource elements, releasing their maximum value through layered supply and three-dimensional development.
Moon Island is part of Sanya Yazhou Bay Science and Technology City, a key park of Hainan Free Trade Port, where the global transfer base for the introduction of animal and plant germplasm resources is located. Between Moon Island and the mainland, a cross-sea transportation pipeline is buried deep under the seabed.
Chen Yunlai, a staff member of the Planning and Construction Department of the Sanya Yazhou Bay Science and Technology City Administration Bureau, said that the project selected the subsoil under the seabed to use the sea space to lay transportation pipelines and conduct preliminary exploration for the approval of three-dimensional layered sea area rights. "This method of sea use not only builds an ecological barrier in the offshore sea area, but also promotes the three-dimensional development of the ocean space, achieving a win-win situation of ecological benefits, economic benefits and management effects."
If the "crossing" of pipelines across the sea requires space "downward", then the "entry" of the new water plant in Haikou City requires "upward" benefits. In Jiangdong New District, Haikou City, a high-quality drinking water plant covering an area of more than 100 acres is operating underground. Above it is a modern commercial and office cluster with a total construction area of 208,000 square meters, forming a vertical development pattern of "underground ensuring people's livelihood and above ground empowering industries".
"Facing the challenges of tight land resources and high ecological protection requirements, Haikou City innovatively planned this Asia's first fully underground water plant." Li Zhangcheng, deputy section chief of the Owners' Rights Section of Haikou City Natural Resources and Planning Bureau, said that the project adopts "underground allocation to protect public welfare, and above-ground transfer to activate the city." The "field" layered land supply mechanism not only solved the problem of "difficulty in site selection and implementation" for municipal facilities in high-density urban development areas, but the government also received 610 million yuan in land transfer income. Commercial income can continue to "feed back" underground investment, and the comprehensive land use efficiency has increased by more than 150%.
When interviewed, the relevant person in charge of the Hainan Provincial Department of Natural Resources and Planning said that in recent years, Hainan Province has actively built a full life cycle management system of "approval, supply, use, and management" of natural resource elements. Through flexible land supply, precise pricing, and installment payment by industry, project, and region, it has reduced the burden on enterprises from the three ends of land price, capital, and time, providing solid factor guarantees for the high-quality development of the Hainan Free Trade Port.
