Tencent × Chengdu join hands to cultivate high-quality development of private enterprises
Private enterprises are ushering in an unprecedented opportunity for development. On July 19, the "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting the Development and Growth of the Private Economy" was released. The opinion pointed out that the private economy is a new force to promote the Chinese path to modernization, an important foundation for high-quality development, and an important force to promote our country to build a modern socialist country in an all-round way and achieve the goal of the second century. The "Opinions" were issued, which gave private entrepreneurs across the country a "reassurance".
In recent years, Chengdu has become a "blessed land" for private enterprises. Data show that in 2022, Chengdu will achieve a private economy added value of 1.015684 trillion yuan, breaking through the trillion yuan mark for the first time. Stimulated by favorable policies, in the first quarter of this year, Chengdu’s private economy achieved an added value of 2670.3 billion yuan, an increase of 4.6% year-on-year, and its share of GDP rose to 50.7%. The private economy shows a good trend of accelerating recovery and development.
Private enterprises are an important force to promote the integration of digital and real, and to promote the development of the private economy. It is also an important opportunity for Tencent and Chengdu to reach a good cooperation. In order to support the high-quality development of the local area, in 2020, Tencent’s first functional headquarters – Tencent’s new merchandise headquarters will be settled in Chengdu. Focusing on the general direction of science and technology + culture, it will continue to attract the landing of high-quality industries and promote the role of building a strong chain of circles. At the same time, it also supports the landing industries to provide support in various aspects such as venues, resource links and funds for local development, and work together to explore "digital and real integration".
Since the establishment of Tencent’s new merchandise headquarters, it has continued to enrich the industrial ecology for regional business development, and has promoted the landing of 34 enterprises, including Photonics (Chengdu) innovation research and development base, CF Crossfire e-sports alliance, Tencent Qingteng city living room (Chengdu), Tencent Research Institute Southwest base and other main industries, as well as driving upstream and downstream ecological enterprises, actively practicing the driving role of building a strong chain of circles, and helping Chengdu’s digital economy and digital merchandise industry to develop with high quality.

It also focuses on cutting-edge fields such as artificial intelligence, carbon neutrality, life science, and aerospace, and promotes the high-quality development of new economic industries to a new level.
Tencent is working with Chengdu to create a fertile ground for the growth of private enterprises.
Link the Qingteng entrepreneur community and let innovation collide and grow
Based on the good cooperation foundation between Tencent and Chengdu, on July 2 last year, Tencent and Chengdu "joined hands" again – the Qingteng (Chengdu) city reception room was officially opened.
In the planning, the Qingteng (Chengdu) City Living Room can serve as a base for entrepreneurs in Sichuan to create digital-real integration solutions, and it is also the first city site for Qingteng to use digital research to help the real economy.

Here, entrepreneurs can not only enjoy a long-term docking platform and mechanism, but also connect with Qingteng students’ industrial landing capabilities and talent service capabilities. They can also widely connect entrepreneurs and industrialists in the digital economy industry in Southwest China, providing Qingteng alumni with an exclusive space for industry seminars, learning and sharing.
In the business observation documentary "Qingcheng" launched by Qingteng in the first half of the year, several "optimistic" entrepreneurs from Chengdu showed the unique vitality of Chengdu. Fusenmei Home Furnishing, a leading home furnishing store company in Southwest China founded in 2000, OUTPUT, an innovative digital content platform with a global perspective, and FITURE, a family technology fitness brand… They blended with the times with a positive and optimistic attitude, and took root in this dynamic and inclusive city, contributing to the healthy and diverse development of the local economy.
From the vertical issues of "carbon neutrality" and "new energy" to promoting comprehensive high-quality development, private enterprises are playing an increasingly important role. Tencent Qingteng will also adhere to Tencent’s "science and technology for good" values, actively respond to national policy advocacy, and take Chengdu as an important fulcrum to help the exploration and practice of industrial transformation in the southwest region and even the whole country.
