Ground was broken on the village on November 4, 1955, and branches of the government began moving in July 5, 1956. The provincial government held its first meeting at Zhongxing New Village on November 27, 1957, and the provincial administration building began use on July 1, 1957.The People's Republic of China (PRC), which has ruled the Chinese mainland since 1949, does not recognize the move of the provincial government from Taipei to Zhongxing New Village as legitimate. Thus, the PRC publishes Taipei as the claimed provincial capital on its official maps.Research developmentThere are plans for an industrial innovation park to be set up in the planned zone in the city; domestic research institutes have been invited to open innovation and incubation centers there.
