Initial Industrial Form and Land Development Model——The Pearl-River-Delta Region as an Example

There are two land development models, land expropriation and land lease, in the Pearl-river-delta region. In the cities with extensive coverage of industry in "processing of imported materials or according to supplied samples, assembling of supplied parts, and compensation trade" (shortened for PAAC), the land development right of villages was activated, while the land development right of the government was severely inhibited, thus showing the land development model with the land lease as the core. In the cities with extensive coverage of township enterprises, the land development right of government was highlighted, but because of a greater say in the local political and economic structure, the villages play an important role at the same time, thus forming a land development model with land expropriation as the main and land lease as the supplement. In the early stage of industrialization, the land development right of villages in the pearl-river-delta region was conducive to docking with foreign capital at a lower cost and promoting rapid economic development. After the industrialization has reached a certain stage, the land development right of villages becomes an obstacle to the industrial scale expansion, transformation and upgrading, which is typically manifested by fragmented and inefficient village-level industrial parks. Therefore, the follow-up development of the pear-river-delta depends largely on upgrading the village-lever industrial parks.
