Excellent little farmer

"Humph! It's easy for you, but I'm unlucky. I'm stuck in this ward, and my days are like years!"

Xu Zhengmin lay down on the bed in a somewhat exaggerated manner. Although we are not friends yet, we are now grasshoppers on a rope. I need him to cover me, and he also needs me to cooperate.

"Haha, Xu Chu, how can you be so exaggerated? The scenery in Qingjiang City is beautiful, and you rarely have some free time. Why not take the opportunity to relax? Take a rest, bring your sister-in-law, and treat it as a tourist vacation." Me neither Angry, salivating, he sat down with a smile.

"I would like to, but do I dare? People from my workplace come to visit me every three days. If I am still in the mood to travel, and someone discovers me, they will immediately betray me and try to kill me!"

Xu Zhengmin rolled his eyes at me angrily, saying that this guy is quite kind. Although this method is a bit embarrassing, it can avoid the sharp point of the problem after all.

"Hey, there's nothing we can do about it. Who makes Xu Chu, who has such a good relationship in the workplace, come to visit you? But it won't last a few days. I estimate that once the foreign-funded consortium arrives in Yuzhou, the leaders will pay attention If you transfer all your strength and thoughts there, Xu Chu's illness will naturally be cured!"

I think Xu Zhengmin is a pretty good person. Although he is a bit soft-tempered, he is still honest. Although the two of us had a very unpleasant quarrel in the early stage, they were each in their own right. Moreover, Xu Zhengmin's "illness and hospitalization" made the relationship between the two of us somewhat unusual.

"Alas! I hope the Hong Kong and foreign investment consortiums that come here will take a fancy to us."

Xu Zhengmin sighed and said, "Do you think we want to block the Jianggui Expressway? We don't know that Pennsylvania and Qingjiang need this expressway more? The leaders actually know better than anyone else!"

After putting aside his ideological baggage, Xu Zhengmin is also very talkative. As a middle-level cadre of the Provincial Planning Commission, he is also quite clear about the development ideas of Jiangzhou Province and even the central and western regions.

"However, the economic development of Mianzhou and Jianyang is at least five years behind Qingjiang and Pennsylvania. The provincial finance is not strong. How to make good use of this fund to promote regional economic development, the provincial leaders are also thinking hard. Building the Jiangzhou-Chongqing Economic Corridor will play a decisive role in the entire Jiangzhou Province."

"But the importance of Jianggui Expressway to Jiangzhou Province is also very important! Look how long it is from Pennsylvania to the north of Guizhou? How far is it from Pennsylvania to the southwest and into eastern Guizhou? And when the bottleneck of the Pennsylvania waterway is broken, it will It can connect the entire territory of Sanxiang, and even radiate to northern Guangdong! It can be said that our Jiangzhou sea channel can become a troika of waterways, railways, and highways running side by side. Who can replace this role for our Jiangzhou? This is not included. The Jianggui Expressway has played a huge role in helping poor people in the remote mountainous areas of Annan get rid of poverty and become rich!"

Xu Zhengmin’s analysis is indeed quite reasonable. Chongqing is a municipality directly under the Central Government, and its strong industrial strength and good hub location are rapidly exploding. And it is between the two major cities of Yuzhou and Chongqing. If there is the golden Jiangyu Expressway, With channel communication, the economy between Mianzhou and Jianyang will surely usher in another period of rapid growth.

But my judgment is just as sharp and powerful.

Annan is quite rich in tourism resources and mineral resources, and its location is unique. It is located at the junction of Hunan, Guangxi, and Guizhou provinces and Jiangzhou. The Jianggui Railway passes through and can directly reach Liuzhou. Especially after the Yangtze River and Crescent River converge, you can go straight north. Yangtze River Waterway.

With its extremely advantageous geographical location, this place will undoubtedly become a hot spot. The prerequisite for the development of this hot spot is that the transportation bottleneck must be broken, and the Jianggui Expressway is an indispensable link.

"Director Ye, I admit that what you said is reasonable, but now the leaders' first priority is to develop the economy. Whether it is eastern Guizhou, northern Guangxi, or western Hunan, they are all economically underdeveloped areas. Under the same circumstances, the two The impact of this expressway on the economic development of Jiangzhou can be judged. As a provincial leader, if you want to have some decent political achievements as capital for promotion during your term of office, the economic indicators from the National Bureau of Statistics are the best. Something convincing!”

Xu Zhengmin’s judgment left me speechless.

Whether it is Ji Chenggong, Su Xianyi, or Chen Ligang and Qin Yifeng, when they want to consider their political future, they first need to consider the pros and cons that each decision will bring to the economic development of the province.

In terms of the indicator of economic growth, the short-term role of Jiangyu Expressway is obviously higher than that of Jianggui Expressway. As for where these leaders will be in five or ten years, no one can tell. There is no overall, long-term If we look at this issue from a sexual perspective, we will not be able to make scientific judgments and decisions.

Xu Zhengmin also realized that his words were a bit out of line, but there were only two people present, so he didn't care.

"Director Xu, it seems that you and I have underestimated the political wisdom of the leaders. In fact, they have understood all this for a long time, but they just want us little people to toss around here, don't they?" I smiled slightly bitterly, He said helplessly.

"Big men have the political wisdom of big men, so we little men must have the means of survival of little men." Xu Zhengmin said mockingly.

"Okay, Xu Chu, I won't disturb your rest. I won't gain much from this evaluation trip. It's lucky to get to know such a happy person like Xu Chu. When I return to Yuzhou in the future, let's get together if it doesn't matter. After all, our professions are related, so it would be nice to communicate more." I stretched out my hand and said with a smile.

"Okay, you also have my phone number. Please contact me more when you get back."

Xu Zhengmin seemed to be thinking of something and said again: "Since you have invited Hong Kong and foreign capital to come in for inspection, it seems that you are planning to establish a bot or a joint venture. The preliminary preparations must be done first. The State Planning Commission has just When I started to open my mouth, the conditions were quite strict, I’m afraid it would take some effort to get approval.”

I nodded knowingly and waved goodbye to him.

After I left, another door in the ward opened, and a middle-aged woman came out and whispered: "Lao Xu, is this this young man?"

"Well! Don't underestimate this guy. Although he is young, he has a cunning mind. If you don't pay attention, you can get his way. This time I was dragged into the water by him. No wonder Huang Wenhan sent this guy to cooperate with me. .”

"It's nothing in the workplace. People who eat whole grains will inevitably get sick. This is normal. What's more, this matter has gradually faded away now." The middle-aged woman comforted Xu Zhengmin.

"I hope so." Xu Zhengmin sighed.

As soon as I returned to the Transportation Department, I plunged into unprecedented busyness. Several Hong Kong consortiums will arrive in Yuzhou within a few days to inspect the preliminary planning and preparation work of the Jiangyu and Jianggui expressways.

Based on the analysis of the number and composition of the other party's delegation, it is obvious that the information we carefully prepared in the early stage has aroused great interest in these consortiums.

Now that the latest work progress of local governments in Pennsylvania and Qingjiang has been included, it becomes even more attractive. If these delegation members can be allowed to conduct on-site inspections and understand the desires of local people and grassroots governments for highway construction, I am afraid the effect will be will be better.

On Tuesday, after a busy day, I received a call from Lu Qingzhou at noon, saying that he, Shang Tingsong, and several official friends who had recently met in Yuzhou wanted to celebrate my little brother's promotion. I happily agreed.

After get off work, I went to the Mandarin Hotel where I had made an appointment, and entered the box. Only Ren Xiangdong, who worked at Yuzhou Construction Bank, was there, and the others had not arrived yet. After saying hello with a smile, I handed him a cigarette. , after lighting the fire, the two sat on the sofa with their legs crossed, watching the headlines in "Jiangzhou News" on TV.

Ji Chenggong, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, and Su Xianyi, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Governor of the Province, met with a visiting Hong Kong investment consortium delegation led by representatives of the Yangtze River Construction Investment Company, a subsidiary of the Hong Kong-based Hutchison Whampoa Group.

Also attending the meeting were Zhou Mingfeng, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Hao Liqun, Member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Yuzhou Municipal Party Committee, Chen Ligang, Member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Executive Vice Governor, and Qin Yifeng, Member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Vice Governor. The level was unprecedented.

In addition to these Hong Kong investment consortiums, a delegation from the Hong Kong Merchants Group will also visit Yuzhou in the next few days.

"Capital is all about profit. You can't expect them to be philanthropists. Although they are very generous when doing charity, business is business. If they are interested in Jiangyu or Jianggui Expressway, they must have taken a fancy to it. The return prospects of two highways." I said smoothly while playing with the wine glass in my hand.

"You're a good boy. I'm also taking advantage of you. Even Governor Su has noticed our article." Ren Xiangdong, who was sitting aside, untied the tie around his neck and loosened his collar.

"Don't! Don't drag me into it, Brother Ren. I just gave you a few ideas. The real author is yourself. I won't take advantage of you." I curled my lips and waved my hands.

"Without your reminder, even if I could write this article, it would not be so pertinent. Besides, those points were all brought up by you. I just looked for some information and polished it for you after reference. It’s just polishing the pen. If I want to say the author, it should be you.”

During the several contacts, Ren Xiangdong was quite humble. Obviously, he was not willing to take advantage of others' beauty at this time. He smiled and said: "But speaking of it, you are really knowledgeable. Even these professional financing companies abroad How can you memorize terminology so well?"

"Hey, if you eat this bowl of rice and don't learn a few foreign terms, how can you fool the leader?"

I chuckled and said, "Nowadays, it is fashionable for leaders to use foreign terms, such as MBA and TOEFL. If you don't scare a few people, it will only show that you have no ability."

At this time, the few people who had just walked in at the door burst into laughter. Lu Qingzhou said jokingly: "Okay! Qingquan, you are very capable. You have only been in Yuzhou for a few days and you have already learned how to fool the leaders!"
