Therefore, this paper takes the gross regional product (GDP) of 31 provinces including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong and Jiangsu from 2018 to 2020 as the dependent variable, uses principal component analysis (PCA) to comprehensively compare the development degree of 31 provinces, and evaluates and analyzes the results, so as to compare and find the similarities and differences of economic development of different provinces. In order to provide theoretical reference and guidance for national and regional development and policy formulation and implementation, the author compares the economic development gap among different provinces in China and reflects on the policy direction and path selection of China's acceleration of economic development in the context of the outbreak of COVID-19.
