中国的重庆能否与孟买竞争？Can Chongqing compete with Mumbai?

来自芝加哥的Anil Bhat 这样认为：

In terms of economy, there is no direct comparison between the two cities. If you refer to an article regarding Chongqing on Wikipedia, it says,"... factories producing local-oriented consumer goods such as processed food, cars, chemicals, textiles, machinery and electronics are common." Mumbai, on the other hand, is primarily India's financial center, and mainly has a service-based economy. It used to have many textile and pharmaceutical factories, most of which have moved out of Mumbai.

在经济方面，两个城市之间没有直接的可比性。如果你参考维基百科上一篇关于重庆的文章，它说：“……生产加工食品、汽车、化工、纺织、机械和电子等本地消费品的工厂很常见。”另一方面，孟买主要是印度的金融中心，是服务型经济。它曾经有许多纺织和制药厂，其中大部分已经搬出孟买。

While Chongqing is being developed as a regional financial center in Southwest China, I doubt whether it will overtake Shanghai any time soon. Neither Mumbai nor Chongqing are as significant as Hong Kong or Singapore as financial centers, so they don't compete against each other for stock listings.

虽然重庆正在发展成为中国西南地区的区域金融中心，但我怀疑它是否会很快超过上海。孟买和重庆都不像香港或新加坡那样的重要金融中心，因此它们不会在股票上市方面相互竞争。

I think the two cities are in competition only if Chongqing is being developed as a software development and export hub. Not much is known as to how Chongqing will compete for this business internationally.

我认为只有将重庆发展为软件开发和出口中心，这两个城市才能竞争。对于重庆将如何在国际上竞争这一业务，人们知之甚少。

In essence, there are not many overlapping areas where the two cities can compete.

本质上，两个城市可以竞争的重叠领域并不多。
