How to protect and utilize the old streets of the old city, and transform historical and cultural resources into the core competitiveness of high-quality development? With such a topic in mind, in the afternoon of January 9, Lin Bin, Secretary of the CPC Zhenhai District Committee, went to the Old Street of Zhuangshi to deepen the "Big Visits, Big Researches, Big Services, Big Solutions" activity in accordance with the working requirements of the "Four Visits to the Grassroots". He emphasized the need to take the lead in promoting the excellent work style of "Four Visits to the Grassroots", focus on the needs of development and care for the needs of the people, continue to promote the transformation of old street functions and vitality, and strive to create higher quality production and living spaces. District leaders, including Wang Shibin and Yang Chengzhi, attended the activity.

The Zhuangshi Old Street is an important birthplace of Ningbo's commercial culture, with a gathering of famous people's former residences and a rich atmosphere of hustle and bustle in the market, carrying the historical memory of the people of Zhenhai. Nowadays, the old streets of Zhuangshi have taken the step of urban renewal. After re-planning, they will take the "'Ningbobang' Spirit" as the connotation, "historical architecture" as the characteristic, and "Zhuangshi River Street" as the carrier to build a "Ningbo Merchants Town" that integrates functions such as heritage protection, cultural experience, supporting services, leisure living, and scientific and technological innovation and so on.

Lin Bin conducted a field survey of the old streets in Zhuangshi, visiting Zhuang Xiying's residence, Shen Runde's house, and Zhisuomentou residential buildings to understand the overall situation of the old streets. "How is the progress of land transfer?" "How are the functions of each block divided?" "Have the personnel been properly arranged?" Lin Bin was concerned about the difficulties encountered during the renovation process and requested relevant departments to sort out the problems and develop plans as soon as possible to ensure the orderly progress and effectiveness of urban renewal.

Lin Bin pointed out that every alley and every old house in the old streets have significant historical value and are precious treasures that need to be cherished. On the basis of doing a good job in protecting and inheriting, relevant departments and localities should explore ideas and methods for activating and utilizing, scientifically plan and collaborate to decode the cultural genes of old streets, introduce new types of cultural and tourism formats, gather high-quality project talents, improve management and operation mechanisms, accelerate the renewal of old streets and the city, make every effort to make the efforts of "guarding" more solid, write more exciting articles about "innovation", fully stimulate residents' sense of belonging and identity, and work together towards a beautiful future of building a district boasting strong science and technology innovation in a modern coastal metropolis and a district of quality of Zhenhai.
