Building a World-Class"Twin Star"City:A Study on the Coupled and Co-ordinated Development of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen"Dual Core Linkage"System
Based on the coupling coordination model,this paper constructs a Guangzhou-Shenzhen"Dual Core Linkage"system composed of multiple subsystems of industry,technology,finance and infrastructure,and measures the coupling coordination degree of the system and the binary subsystems.It is found that,after years of integration,the coupling and coordination degree of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen"Dual Core Linkage"system has been continuously improved,and the various binary subsystems have basically achieved good coordination.However,the coupling coordination degree between the infrastructure subsystem and other subsystems such as industry,technology,and finance still needs to be improved,and it is still in the initial stage of coordination.Therefore,Guangzhou and Shenzhen should fully utilize their comparative advantages in industry,technology,finance,and infrastructure construction,optimize transportation structures,promote the interconnection of their infrastructure,improve the development,utilization,and optimal allocation efficiency of scattered resources,achieve the mutual coupling and coordinated development of multiple systems such as"industry-technology-finance-infrastructure",and establish a virtuous cycle.This will inject continuous momentum into building a world-class"twin city".
