In modern times, with the construction of the Beijing-Han Railway, Jiangxi's advantages in location and water transportation were gradually weakened and lost. Jiangxi's economy is also gradually weakening. In the 1980s, the railway construction had not been carried out on a large scale, and the advantages of fast railway transportation could not be reflected. Jiangxi's leaders believe that Jiangxi's development depends on water transport and the Yangtze River. So I strongly want to push Jiangxi's economy to the north and to the Yangtze River. Changjiu Industrial Corridor will be built in order to develop into an industrial corridor along the Yangtze River in Jiangxi in the future. In fact, at the end of last century, with the great opening and development of China's economy, China's economy has moved from the inland river era to the coastal era. With the rise of railways, inland rivers have no advantage.
With the rise of Changjiu Industrial Corridor, the position of Jiangxi's economy in the whole country has declined instead of rising, from 17 in 1980s to 22nd now.
Around, and there is a gradual downward trend.
In fact, although Jiangxi is poor at present, it is not completely without advantages. The biggest advantage of Jiangxi at present: Jiangxi is the only province adjacent to the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and Southeast Fujian Triangle, and Nanchang is also the only provincial capital city adjacent to the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and Southeast Fujian Triangle.
