Dian Zhong New Area will anchor the Long-Range Objectives Through the Year 2035, comprehensively consider the foundation, conditions, and needs of the New Area's development, maintaining the strategic focus of "laying the foundation, planning for the long-term," and implementing the "432" strategy. By 2025, the four major initiatives: cultivating characteristic industrial clusters in the New Area, building an integration platform for industry and city, integrating into a large cycle and a dual cycle, and upgrading a first-class business environment will achieve remarkable results. Three iconic new cities: Xiaoshao International New City, Yunnan ASEAN Industrial City, and Airport Guomen Business and Tourism Zone will be initially completed. The two characteristic town clusters: Songming-Airport and Anning will be further improved. They will deeply integrate into a new development pattern with the domestic circulation as the main body and domestic and international dual circulation. The regional GDP of the New Area is expected to reach around 140 billion yuan. The New Area will be at the forefront and set a benchmark in the province's high-quality development. These goals are as follows:

The comprehensive economic strength will be continuously improving. Regional GDP's average annual growth rate will be over 10%, that of industrial added value above 12%, and that of fixed asset investment more than 20%. The average annual growth rate of general public budget revenue will not be lower than the provincial average annual growth rate. The proportion of industrial added value in the regional GDP will substantially increase. With the preliminary formation of a modern industrial system, the quality and efficiency of economic development will significantly improve.

The level of innovation drive will be noticeably improving. An innovative ecosystem with enterprises as the main body will initially be formed. The proportion of R&D input in the regional GDP will gradually increase, and the number of R&D institutions will continue to grow. The number of high-tech enterprises will double, and the average annual growth rate of the added value of high-tech industries will reach over 18%. With the digital economy booming, the vitality of innovation and entrepreneurship will be considerably enhanced.

The urban carrying capacity will be significantly enhanced. The new type of people-centered urbanization will be accelerated, three iconic new cities will be initially built, and new and traditional infrastructure will be coordinated. "Industry," "city," and "people" will be deeply integrated and coordinated with further development, and people's well-being will be continuously improving. The rise of characteristic town clusters will form a new situation of coordinated development with the Kunming metropolitan area and central Yunnan urban agglomeration.

The effect of green transformation will be continuously showing. As energy consumption per unit of GDP and carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP continue to decrease, the average urban green coverage rate will go up substantially, with more intensive and efficient land use. A new national-level green park will be built. The quality of the ecological environment will continuously improve with ecological beauty, environmental beauty, urban beauty, rural beauty, and landscape beauty as common forms.

The openness and cooperation will be deepening. As the level of openness and cooperation and the level of internationalization continue to uplift, the development of the airport economy will accelerate, with the air passenger throughput and cargo throughput of Kunming Changshui International Airport continuously growing. The actual use of foreign capital and the total import and export trade volume will increase noticeably. The open economy based in Yunnan, facing the whole country and radiating to South Asia and Southeast Asia, will be further expanded.
