Comparative Evaluation and Optimization Path of Internationalization Level of China's National Central Cities
Based on the strategic positioning of national central cities and the internationalization characteris-tics of national central cities such as open cooperation platforms,economic and trade exchanges and cooperation,and international soft power,this paper constructs a system of evaluation indexes for the internationalization devel-opment of cities from four major categories of indexes such as open carriers,open channels,foreign economic and humanities cooperation,and internationalization policy environment,and compares the internationalization level of nine national central cities.The study finds that the international economic and social exchanges and cooperation in the post epidemic period are still in the recovery period,and the internationalization level of China's national central cities is obviously differentiated,with most internationalization indexes of cities such as Beijing and Shang-hai in the lead,some internationalization indexes of cities such as Guangzhou,Chongqing,Chengdu,and Tianjin in the lead,and most internationalization indexes of cities such as Wuhan,Xi'an,and Zhengzhou in the disadvantage.Based on the comparison results,five internationalization enhancement countermeasures are proposed:clarifying the city's internationalization function positioning,optimizing and improving the function of open carriers,improv-ing the function of international open channels,building an internationalized modern industrial function system,and continuously enhancing the city's internationalization soft power.
