From the terrace of Jia's office building, the view offers a striking glimpse of Xiong'an's remarkable transformation. Just next door, the headquarters of China Satellite Network Group Co., Ltd. (CSCN) -- the first centrally-administered state-owned enterprise (SOE) to establish a presence in the new area -- officially began operations late last year. Meanwhile, the gleaming facades of two other centrally-administered SOEs' nearly completed headquarters now rise prominently on the emerging skyline.

　　As more SOEs establish a presence in Xiong'an, a series of emerging industrial clusters are driving the development of this futuristic city. Having lived and worked in Xiong'an for over half a year, Li Maofan, an employee at CSCN, is increasingly convinced that “dreams can be realized here.“

　　Leveraging the presence of the satellite company and an innovation alliance for aerospace information and satellite internet, Xiong'an is developing an industrial ecosystem that spans satellite internet, spatiotemporal information, aerospace vehicles, and the intelligent manufacturing of commercial satellites. So far, it has attracted around 60 enterprises in the aerospace information sector.

　　Driven by its commitment to becoming an innovation hub, the new area is also rapidly consolidating scientific and technological resources across industries such as next-generation information technology, artificial intelligence (AI), and new materials.

　　Since its establishment, Xiong'an has seen the successful implementation of a series of landmark relocation projects. Four headquarters of centrally-administered SOEs, including CSCN, have already settled in the new area. Four others, including China Datang Corporation Ltd., are set to begin construction this year.
