最近在知乎上，有一个热门问题是：“南京和杭州，哪一座城市潜力大？”

　　

　　Recently, there is a hot topic in Zhihu that ‘which city has greater potential between Nanjing and Hangzhou’?

　　

　　对于两座城市的优劣，网友们分成两派，有人说南京好，有人说杭州强。

　　

　　For the pros and cons of the two cities, netizens are divided into two camps that some people think that Nanjing is better but some people say that Hangzhou is greater.

　　

　　今天，就从国家定位、交通地位、经济发展、民众认知四个方面，谈谈南京与杭州，谁会是东部的下一个中心？

　　

　　Today, we will analysis from national position, traffic status, economic development, and people's cognition to talk about that which will be the next center in the east between Nanjing and Hangzhou.

　　

　　国家定位

　　

　　National position

　　

　　南京市是江苏省省会，东部地区重要的中心城市，国家历史文化名城，全国重要的科研教育基地和综合交通枢纽。

　　

　　Nanjing is the capital of Jiangsu province. It is an important central city in the east. And it is also a famous historical and cultural city, a significant national scientific research and education base and an integrated transport hub.

　　

　　杭州市是浙江省省会和全省经济、文化、科教中心，长江三角洲中心城市之一。南京是东部中心、杭州是长三角中心。

　　

　　Hangzhou is the capital of Zhejiang province and it is the economic, cultural, scientific and educational center of Zhejiang. Hangzhou is one of the central cities in the Yangtze River Delta.Nanjing is the center of the east and Hangzhou is the center of the Yangtze River delta.

　　

　　交通地位

　　

　　Traffic status

　　

　　南京有天然优势——横跨长江，杭州的钱塘江、京杭运河完全不在同一量级，这决定了南京自古是交通枢纽，而且连接内陆和沿海的“江海转运枢纽”。南京还是高铁干线枢纽，路线规划更多。

　　

　　Nanjing stretches across the the Yangtze River which is its natural advantage. The Qiantang River and Beijing-Hangzhou Canal of Hangzhou can’t compare with it. This determines that Nanjing has been a hub of transportation since ancient times and it connects island and coastal river transport hub. Nanjing is also the hub of high-speed rail lines which has more route plannings.

　　

　　经济发展

　　

　　Economic development

　　

　　杭州是互联网电商中心，这里有阿里巴巴，同时背靠整个浙江的民营经济，这是自身造就的辐射能量。杭州还是“移动支付之都”，GDP中服务业、互联网行业比重较高，更加面向未来。

　　

　　Hangzhou is the Internet e-commerce center where Alibaba locates and it has the back of the entire private economy in Zhejiang which is its own radiation energy. Hangzhou is also the capital of mobile payments where services and Internet industry have higher proportion in GDP. So Hangzhou is more future-oriented.

　　

　　而南京是全国老工业基地，传统产业链较为完善，但在互联网时代尚未建立自身的独特优势。

 

　   Nanjing is the country's old industrial base which has more perfect traditional industry chain, but it has not established their own unique advantages.

　　

　　谁能向一线城市更进一步？

　　

　　Which one can go a step further to the first-tier city.

　　

　　民众认知

　　

　　People's cognition

　　

　　2015年，杭州常住人口净增12.6万；2016年，杭州常住人口净增17万；2015年，南京常住人口净增1.98万；2016年，南京常住人口净增3.41万。人口基数、本地出生率相差不大的前提下，这说明更多人看好杭州的发展机会。

　　

　　The net increase of permanent resident population in Hangzhou was 0.126 million in 2015. In 2016, the data was 0.17 million. The net increase of permanent resident population in Nanjing was 0.0198 million in 2015 and the data was 0.0341 million in 2016. Under the premise that population base and local birthrate have little difference, this shows that more people are more optimistic about the development opportunities of Hangzhou.

　　

　　综上，南京和杭州谁会是东部新中心？小编不打算直接给出答案~

　　

　　In summary, which will be the new center in the east between Nanjing and Hangzhou? The editor does not intend to give the answer directly.
