Just as Luo Weicheng expected, the meeting only lasted for 15 minutes, and the auditorium of the city hall was already full of eruptions!
Strictly speaking, the vast majority of companies that came to this meeting did not have the status officially recognized by the state, that is, small and medium-sized iron and steel companies that violated regulations.So when Ling Haozhong announced that the city would officially launch a self-inspection and self-inspection of the steel industry within three days.

Tangshan City Government will continue to vigorously support the construction of projects that have been officially approved by various ministries and commissions in Beijing; any construction projects that are not officially approved by relevant departments, but are undergoing land leveling, land acquisition and demolition, equipment ordering, and preliminary work, must be resolutely stopped. Down; without formal approval, but in line with the No. 103 document issued by the relevant state departments at the beginning of this year, the projects under construction that meet the technical conditions for access to the iron and steel industry and the industry planning will be reported by the municipal investment department to the provincial investment department. The competent investment department will put forward handling opinions, and then report to the national investment competent department for approval; construction projects that do not meet the requirements must be stopped and strictly rectified!That's all. In this meeting, the invited companies are basically companies that have been put into production and formal operation. Although there are some companies that are launching new projects, they are a minority after all.

However, when Ling Haozhong announced that all iron and steel enterprises in Tangshan City that have not been officially approved by the state must also conduct self-inspection. Production capacity must be rectified.And that's not all. All the iron and steel enterprises in Tangshan City must re-conduct environmental protection audits. Those who fail to meet the environmental protection standards will stop production for rectification. When will they meet the standards.When will you be allowed to resume production!Moreover, from now on, the Environmental Protection Bureau of Tangshan City will spot-check the production of iron and steel enterprises in the territory from time to time. If the pollution exceeds the standard, in addition to punishment according to environmental protection laws and regulations, additional penalties will be imposed.For the first time, production will be completely shut down for seven days, for the second time, production will be shut down for one month, for the third time, production will be shut down for half a year, and for the fourth time, it will be reported to the relevant departments in the province and the capital, requesting to shut down and transfer to the enterprise.

This decision.All the business leaders present, including many people from government departments, were stunned!
In China, although the "Environmental Protection Law" existed as early as the 70s, the 27 Constitution stipulated that the state has the responsibility to protect and improve the living environment and ecological environment, and prevent and control pollution and other public hazards. Later, laws related to water pollution prevention, air pollution prevention, and marine environmental protection were successively issued. Up to now, Huaxia has formulated ten environmental protection laws and eighteen resource protection laws.There are [-] administrative regulations, and more than [-] multilateral international environmental treaties such as the Convention on Biological Diversity have been ratified and signed.In addition, special chapters have been set up in the criminal law, which respectively stipulate the crime of "destroying environmental resource protection" and other crimes.It can be said that the legal system is quite complete.

But in actual implementation.However, various problems have emerged, making these environmental protection laws, regulations, and conventions useless.

In many provinces and cities in China, many large polluters are actually the backbone of the local economy and employment, for the growth of local gdp.Local governments are naturally very fond of these enterprises, and the regulatory authorities in these places will be "lenient" when punishing them, or even turn a blind eye.It even helped them cover up the fact of sewage discharge.

There are also many local governments who use only one word to control environmental pollution - fines. As for whether the pollution discharge of these enterprises has been curbed after the fines are over, the public has no way of knowing where these fines are used.What's more, the public doesn't even know which companies were punished for polluting!
Moreover, in China, there is still a strange phenomenon of "two highs and one low" in the rule of law of environmental protection, that is, the cost of law enforcement and law-abiding is high, and the cost of breaking the law is low. "Low cost of breaking the law" will inevitably reduce the majesty and efficiency of the law, leading to repeated prohibition of illegal sewage discharge; "high cost of abiding by the law" will inevitably weaken people's legal awareness and regard the law as dispensable.This makes domestic enterprises generally not pay attention to environmental protection investment, or even if they invest, it is greatly reduced.

Moreover, since domestic laws and regulations were formulated in the [-]s and [-]s, the punishment for corporate pollution lags far behind the needs of economic development and social life.The environmental protection departments in various places not only have a small number of staff, but also have a small amount of funds, and they cannot get corresponding strong cooperation from other departments.

The environmental protection department has to shut down those companies that discharge pollutants illegally, subject to the approval of the local government, not only the procedures are cumbersome, but also people from all walks of life will greet them, and they will be fined, and the amount of the fine is very limited. Compared with the cost, it is completely heaven and earth.So some companies don't care about those fines at all.Some companies even directly took out the money and paid all the fines for one year, asking the staff of the Environmental Protection Bureau not to bother them anymore.

This makes enterprises that abide by the laws and regulations suffer economically, while illegal enterprises that do not bear the cost of pollution prevention and control enjoy a large economic advantage.In Dangshan City, a similar situation also exists.Not only steel companies, but other companies also have this situation.Except for Luo Weicheng, none of the people present thought that Ling Haozhong would have the courage to forcefully enforce the Environmental Protection Law in the steel industry of Tangshan City.

All of a sudden, not only those small and medium-sized iron and steel enterprises who are "black households" can't sit still, but even Tangfeng Iron and Steel Company, Jindong Iron and Steel Company, Banbihe Iron and Steel Company, Tingsong Iron and Steel Company, and Tangshan Jianlong Iron and Steel Company The representatives couldn't sit still anymore, but they didn't notice the calm expressions of the representatives of Huasheng Longxing Iron and Steel Company and Xingrui Iron and Steel Company beside them.

A representative added additional penalties to Ling Haozhong’s words—“The first full shutdown for seven days, the second one for one month, the third one for half a year, and the fourth one will be reported to the relevant departments in the province and the capital city to request that the company be shut down and transferred to the company. ", expressing that it is a bit too strict, thinking that according to China's environmental protection laws and regulations, there is no such regulation.However, Ling Haozhong said that the Olympic Games will be held soon. In order to ensure the blue sky of the capital, Tangshan City, as a close neighbor of the capital, will support the Olympic Games by setting an example. .

Those present here also know that the [-] Olympic Games will be held soon, and many foreign media are talking about domestic air and water pollution. Some media even called for a boycott of the Olympic Games, thinking that the Such a large-scale domestic competition will damage the bodies of those athletes.And it is said that the central government does intend to carry out some rectification of domestic pollution.Thinking about the precedent when Beijing hosted the Asian Games, they fully believed that although the province might not necessarily agree with this practice in Tangshan City, the Beijing government and the Ministry of Environmental Protection would definitely welcome it with both hands.

Local governments in China have always taken one step forward and two steps back when it comes to environmental protection issues. In order to ensure the development of local gdp, some places even hesitate to act as protective umbrellas for these big polluters. Tangshan is a heavy industrial city, and the steel industry belongs to Tangshan. The pillar industry can be said to be the biggest source of pollution in Tangshan City.And Tangshan City is very close to Beijing and Jincheng. It can be said that the pollution discharge of Tangshan City has not only a decisive effect on the environment of these two municipalities, but also an important role!
Seeing that the Olympic Games will be held soon, the pollution problems in the two cities have not been significantly improved, and domestic public opinion is paying more and more attention to environmental protection. It is absolutely impossible to say that the governments of the two cities and the Ministry of Environmental Protection are not worried about it !If Tangshan City Government stands up on its own initiative and is willing to rectify the city's steel industry's pollution discharge problem, it will be like a pie in the sky for the two cities and the Ministry of Environmental Protection!They would be fools not to push hard enough to get this application through.

It does not affect the development of its own gdp, but it can effectively improve the local environment, and the Ministry of Environmental Protection has also achieved political achievements. What a great thing.

But these people present did not understand, what is Ling Haozhong doing?In the absence of a strong request from the state, doing so is tantamount to abolishing martial arts!If these decisions are implemented seriously, the production capacity of the iron and steel industry in Tangshan City will be reduced by almost one-third or even more!Even for those enterprises that have not closed their doors, the cost of the steel products they produce will increase significantly!Although the current steel market is relatively hot and the profit margin is not low, how will it compete with steel companies in other parts of the country in the future?

Many people turned their attention to the mayor Li Huafeng who was also sitting on the stage, but what surprised them was that Li Huafeng actually sang praises for Ling Haozhong's decision!Much to the disappointment of many people present, they had no idea what kind of medicine these two had taken.Could it be that they don't understand that the result of doing so is that Tangshan City's economy will suffer a severe setback?

Many people turned their attention to Luo Weicheng again. As a large state-owned enterprise whose production capacity accounts for nearly half of Tangshan City's steel output, although there is a gap between Luo Weicheng's administrative level and Ling Haozhong's, the difference is not very far.As the leader of the iron and steel company in Tangshan City, at this time, it is time for him to stand up and fight for the interests of himself and his brother companies!
But what they didn't expect was that although Luo Weicheng stood up to speak, what he said was that Tangshan Iron and Steel Group Company firmly supported the decision of the municipal party committee and the municipal government, while the representatives of Huasheng Longxing Iron and Steel Company and Xingrui Iron and Steel Company He even responded!
