Bildnummer: 56226635 Datum: 28.10.2011 Copyright: imago/Xinhua (111028) -- ZHOUSHAN, Oct. 28, 2011 (Xinhua) -- Photo taken on Oct. 21, 2011 shows cargo ships under construction at the Zhenghe Shipyard in Zhoushan, east China s Zhejiang Province. Zhoushan is the country s only prefecture-level administrative city based on islands. Comprising 1, 390 islands, it has an approximately 280-kilometer-long deep-water coastline, taking up 18.4 percent of the country s total. It is located at the estuary of the Yangtze River to the sea, and acts as a perfect linkage between the land and the sea. Just four months ago, the city was approved by the state council to establish the Zhoushan Archipelago New Area, which is labeled as the county s fourth state-level new district, next to Pudong New Area in Shanghai, Binhai New Area in Tianjin, and Liangjiang New Area in Chongqing. Different from the previous three new areas, Zhoushan Archipelago New Area is the country s first new district themed with the oceanic economy at the state level, and plays as an important component of the state marine development strategy as the country starts to eye on exploring the ocean while opening up to the world. Some 170 years ago, when China was ruled by Daoguang Emperor of Qing Dynasty, the ruler had also conducted similar action of opening up, not on his own initiative, but threatened by the shell of British invader. To protect its opium trade in China, Britain launched the First Opium War against China from 1839 to 1842. The fight in Zhoushan s Dinghai from Sept. 26 to Oct. 1, 1841 was considered by historians as the bloodies of the Opium War and ended with the failure of Chinese army and the death of three high-ranking officers Ge Yunfei, Wang Xipeng and Zheng Guohong. After 170 years, when tourists stand in front of the Opium War Memorial Hall built on a hill of Zhushan Park, towering above the urban area of Dinghai, their views are filled with the hustle and bustle of shipyards, harbors and
