The report shows that Fuzhou, Quanzhou, and Xiamen rank at the forefront of the province in terms of port economy value-added, collectively forming the core engine of Fujian's port economy development. Among them, Fuzhou's port economy value-added reached 218.1 billion yuan, an increase of 18.5 billion yuan from the previous year, propelling it to the top spot in the province. 

This marks the first time Fuzhou's port economy value-added has surpassed the 200-billion-yuan threshold, signifying that its development scale now places it in the nation's first tier alongside cities such as Suzhou, Ningbo, Wuxi, Tangshan, and Quanzhou. Furthermore, Fuzhou's national share of the port economy grew by over 0.1 percentage points, with its growth rate leading the country. This has effectively propelled the city's economic advancement and continues to enhance the prominence of Fujian's maritime port economy.
