About 13,000 clothes shops at the wholesale market were asked to move out by the end of this year.
The government will introduce financial technology, security and risk management service providers into the zone.
It will also encourage large-scale financial institutions and internet companies to set up offices in the zone to form an whole industrial chain, supported by policies such as rent cuts.
