First Secretary of Rebirth

Because he guaranteed the ticket in front of Yu Zhonghua, He Chaoyang paid unprecedented attention to this matter.

He not only ordered Xiao Mu to continue the in-depth investigation, but also asked He Yuwu to send another group of people to verify whether the news Xiao Mu sent back was correct.Although there are people who do not suspect, and people who do not suspect, but one person's investigation is always incomplete. He told Xiao Mu clearly about this, and Xiao Mu also expressed his understanding of his behavior.

No matter how you behave or do things, you must be aboveboard. Even if I just don't trust you, I will tell you clearly.He Chaoyang's frank way of handling things not only did not arouse Xiao Mu's resentment, but made him more cautious in doing things.

Because once something goes wrong, He Chaoyang will be the first to bear the brunt.He had already become He Chaoyang's vassal, and if something happened to his master, he would not be able to get rid of it, let alone talk about his future.

"Is things going well in Wuzhou?" His actions will naturally not avoid Ling Wei, and the macro adjustment policy that the central government is currently planning has already conflicted with the interests of the local government.Ling Wei is also very concerned about these issues.

"It's not bad." There are always risks, but the scale of Yunteng Steel's new investment project is there, and this is a fact that cannot be concealed.

"You have to be careful."

"Don't worry, it's fine." He Chaoyang said with a smile: "Now the whole country is engaged in construction, many places are operating in violation of regulations, and the central government has been forced to do nothing. Besides, I am just a small director. There’s the Director of the Department, and Vice Premier Liang.”

"I suddenly felt that it's actually not easy for the bosses above." Ling Wei sighed.The expressway construction in Yingzhou has entered the final stage, and many logistics companies and express companies have begun to visit Yingzhou. This is definitely good news for the state.

Because the bubble crisis has affected the enthusiasm of investors, Yingzhou has not been affected by macro-control for the time being.But the nearby Yunzhou City is now in operation, and the discussion about whether to get a steel factory has spread from the political circle to the private sector.

Zhang Yang, the mayor of Yunzhou City, came to talk to him more than once, and wanted to invite him to Beijing to follow He Chaoyang's footsteps.It's just that things are not so easy. From a mayor's point of view, Zhang Yang's idea is nothing wrong, but from a macro point of view, Yunzhou is definitely taking a risk.

He Chaoyang's report was passed on layer by layer.

Man proposes, God disposes.Whether or not this report will be taken seriously is not up to him as a mere director, so on the first Sunday after submitting the report, He Chaoyang went to the Home Center to look at the furniture.

The home in Beijing was designed by a designer, and it is not simple, but he has always felt that the mattress is a bit soft, and when Ling Wei is coming over next week, it is better to change to a moderately soft and firm mattress that Mayor Ling likes to sleep on.

"Sir, this mattress is imported from Italy. It can automatically remember your sleeping habits and protect your back very well."

Walking along the way, the sales lady bragged about her mattress, which made Director He fantasize even more.

"I think this one is more comfortable." He Chaoyang said, pointing to the mattress he had just tried lying on.

"Then let me open the bill for you?"

Under the expectant eyes of the sales lady, He Zhaoyang's cell phone rang.

"Director, are you looking for me?"

"Where are you now?" Yu Zhonghua's voice was serious.

"I was out."

"Come to the committee quickly, and report with me to Vice Premier Liang's office in two hours."

"okay, I get it."

After finishing the call, He Chaoyang calmed down. If he guessed correctly, Vice Premier Liang must have asked him for a report. It was really unexpected that Vice Premier Liang moved so quickly.

"Sir, do you want any more mattresses?" Seeing his serious expression, the sales lady couldn't help asking timidly in a low voice.

"Yes." He Zhaoyang came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Can I swipe my card?"

"Where did you go to play on Sunday?" He Chaoyang rushed to the office, and Yu Zhonghua was already waiting for him.

"What's the matter, I went to the furniture city." He Chaoyang saw that Yu Zhonghua was not dressed very formally, so he came here from other places. "The director should not be idle!"

"I'm used to it." Yu Zhonghua smiled and said, "Go and bring all the materials you need, and we'll take the car to see Premier Liang later."

"Okay." He Chaoyang put all the useful information in a file bag, took a deep breath, and followed Yu Zhonghua out the door.

As a yamen who played in the big house since he was a child, he is not afraid of the red door studded with copper nails.It's just that this is the first time his report has attracted the attention of senior leaders, and he is afraid that something unexpected will happen in the middle.

"Nervous?" Yu Zhonghua patted his hand.

He Chaoyang wanted to say that he wasn't nervous, but in the face of Yu Zhonghua's concern, he swallowed his brave words again.Vice Premier Liang is one of the few officials known for his toughness in China. Facing the first summons in his life, he had to cheer up.

The two entered the palace, and followed the guidance of the staff to the office of Vice Premier Liang.

"Hello Director Yu." It was not the first time Yu Zhonghua came here, so the staff had an impression of him.

"Hi Xiao Zhang, is the Prime Minister still busy?"

"The time you agreed on is 10 minutes later, please sit down for a while, I'll go and have a look."

"Okay, sorry to trouble you."

The two sat down on the sofa, Yu Zhonghua smiled and said to He Chaoyang: "When I meet the Prime Minister later, I can say whatever I have. The Prime Minister likes to listen to the truth."

He Chaoyang nodded and said, "Okay."

The two of them didn't sit for long before the staff came back.Knowing that Vice Premier Liang was free, the two of them did not dare to neglect, and followed the staff into Vice Premier Liang's office.

Like Mr. He's office, Vice Premier Liang's office is simple and not so fancy.

"Hello, Prime Minister Liang." Yu Zhonghua took He Chaoyang and greeted the Prime Minister respectfully.

"Comrade Zhonghua, please sit down." Vice Premier Liang looked at He Chaoyang and said, "This is Comrade He Chaoyang, right? You sit too."

The two sat down next to the sofa.

"Don't be nervous, I came to you this time to talk about the issue of steel regulation." Vice Premier Liang took out the report written by He Chaoyang, looking straight at He Chaoyang with sharp eyes, "Is everything you wrote on it true? "

"Yes." He Chaoyang nodded with certainty.

"So, the situation is already very serious." Vice Premier Liang frowned, "I don't know how many projects have applied for approval from you, and how many projects have started construction in private."

This is a very serious topic. As far as He Chaoyang knows, many provinces and cities are now looking to launch new projects. These projects not only include the steel industry that the state wants to regulate, but also electrolytic aluminum, cement, flat glass and other industries that have entered a high-speed expansion. stage.

Sitting in Vice Premier Liang's office, He Chaoyang felt for the first time the tremendous pressure of being a national leader. This pressure did not come from the poor and weak of the country, but from the uncontrollable economic development.If he is still the mayor of Zhongjiang Town at this moment, he only needs to take care of the town of 10,000+ people, but standing in the power center of this country, he knows what it means to determine the perspective of things at a high level.

In a huge country with a population of more than one billion, whether it is the economy or the people's livelihood, every aspect affects the whole body.It is very, very difficult to maintain a virtuous cycle of economic development.What Vice Premier Liang is doing now is to fight against vested interests across the country from the perspective of sound economic development in the future.

It is extremely difficult to change the concept of local governments and curb the risks of economic overheating and excess production capacity.

"Comrade He Chaoyang, you wrote this report, let's talk about it." Vice Premier Liang said.

Looking at the Prime Minister's sharp eyes, He Zhaoyang sorted out his thoughts.

"Prime Minister, I just started working in the National Development and Reform Commission, and I still can't look at the problem from the perspective of the overall situation. I would like to talk about some of my experience working in Zhongjiang."

"Oh?" Vice Premier Liang raised his eyebrows. This young man really dares to involve local governance in the macro-control of iron and steel enterprises.

"Tell me." He wanted to see what this He Chaoyang could say.

"Prime Minister, Zhongjiang is the base of the pearl industry in the south, but the output and quality of pearls have gradually declined in recent years. The reason is that the local pearl people have expanded aggressively in order to obtain more benefits. During this period, Zhongjiang The town government specially invited professors from Yingzhou Fisheries College and Australian pearl experts to check the pulse of Zhongjiang. The final opinion was to abandon the existing scale and cultivate pearls in newly opened waters. We developed a rolling culture method to ensure that each piece of water has enough time to recuperate.” He Zhaoyang paused, and seeing Vice Premier Liang’s expression focused, he continued: “Although pearl farming has nothing to do with the steel industry, it is important for resources. The cost is the same. Our existing large-scale steel mills can already fully meet the domestic steel demand, and it would be a waste of resources to launch a steel project. What's more, the pollution of the steel mills and the consumption of raw materials will also make the environment unsustainable. bear."

"Go on."

"When Zhongjiang's pearl breeding policy was introduced, many pearl residents didn't understand it, but under the compulsory request of the town government, the rolling farming method was implemented. Now that the steel industry has come to be controlled, the central government should introduce measures as soon as possible to curb it. The launch of steel companies." He Chaoyang pointed to the map of the Prime Minister's Office and said: "The country is so big, let alone how many prefecture-level cities want to launch steel companies, even one in each province, we can't afford it. Now the steel industry The situation is fine, but once the market weakens, it will be the government that will pay for these companies in the end.”

"Then tell me, what method should be used to implement macro-control?"

"Return the power of land approval to the central government and tighten monetary policy."

Vice Premier Liang nodded and said, "That's the point, but let me ask one more question, what if neither of these two tricks work?"

He Chaoyang raised his head slowly. He looked at Vice Premier Liang, as if he didn't believe that a vice premier of a country would say such a thing.He didn't think that Vice Premier Liang was incompetent, but he deeply felt the powerlessness of the Prime Minister. The so-called policy at the top has countermeasures at the bottom.The Prime Minister said that precisely because he did not treat him as an outsider.

"He Chaoyang, it's not enough to just say nice words." Vice Premier Liang leaned back on the chair and looked at him with piercing eyes. "If the government order doesn't work, what can you do?"

Looking at this imposing old man, He Chaoyang settled his thoughts, and said in a very, very calm tone: "Prime Minister, there is an old saying - use heavy codes in troubled times."

"Haha!" Vice Premier Liang raised his head and smiled, pointing at him while laughing, "You can!"

The tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed, and Yu Zhonghua, who was sitting by the side, also secretly gave a sigh of relief.

"It's such a troubled time to use heavy codes. Is that what you did in Zhongjiang?"

"Zhongjiang hasn't reached this point yet," He Chaoyang said with a smirk, "It was already decided to enforce it, but it happened that an infectious disease broke out in a bead farm, and all the years of hard work were paid within three to five days, so the government Once mobilized, the Pearl people started to act."

"You have to experience the lessons of blood before you can think of improvement." Vice Premier Liang shook his head and said, "What we have to do now is to prevent these mistakes in advance before the lessons of blood come."

Both Yu Zhonghua and He Chaoyang nodded in agreement.

"It's hard to do." Vice Premier Liang looked at them and said in a very frank voice, "It's very hard to do."

"Prime Minister..." The officials below were desperately trying to gain political achievements, but the prime minister of a country was worried about how to restrain this impulse. He Chaoyang swallowed what he wanted to say.

In order to reverse this situation, it is not possible to explain clearly in a few sentences. The system, policy, and assessment methods are too many aspects involved, and it is impossible to complete it by one's own strength.

But despite facing so many difficulties, from the prime minister down to some grassroots officials, everyone is working hard.No matter how many negative situations there are, there are still many people who want this country to be good and work hard for it.

Perhaps, this is what attracted him to enter the officialdom.It may be difficult, but being able to do something for this country is his responsibility as the He family, and it is also his duty as an ordinary citizen.

Because I deeply love this country, I hope that she will be stronger and better.

"I've read your report." Vice Premier Liang pointed to the report on his desk and said, "It's well written."

"Thank you Prime Minister." He Chaoyang bowed.

"Recently, there have been more and more reports about illegally launched projects. You also mentioned the illegally launched steel projects in Wuzhou. In order to get a clearer understanding of the situation in various places, I want to set up an inspection team and go to all parts of the country to see look."

After hearing this, Yu Zhonghua and He Chaoyang glanced at each other. The composition of the Central Inspection Team has always been determined by the top. The Prime Minister specially summoned them. Could it be that...

"Comrade Zhonghua, do you have any suggestions?"

"I don't have any suggestions. I will provide as much support as possible." As the director, he is unlikely to participate in the inspection team. It seems that Vice Premier Liang's focus this time is on He Chaoyang.

Vice Premier Liang nodded and turned his attention to He Chaoyang, "Comrade Chaoyang, I see that in your report you not only proposed that the iron and steel industry should be regulated, but also that many other industries need to be controlled by the central government. Do you know about other industries? "

"A little dabble."

"Okay, this time you join in too." Vice Premier Liang drew a circle on the list on the desk.

"Chaoyang, this time the prime minister has appointed your name, so you have to work hard." After leaving the prime minister's office, Yu Zhonghua patted He Chaoyang on the shoulder encouragingly.

With He Chaoyang's qualifications, it would be impossible for him to join the inspection team if Vice Premier Liang hadn't personally called his name.This is both a challenge and an opportunity.With such an experience, it will definitely be of great help to He Chaoyang's future work.

Seeing the encouragement in Yu Zhonghua's eyes, He Zhaoyang was calm on the surface, but smiled wryly in his heart.

At that time, he was fooled by the Prime Minister, and the matter of joining the inspection team was decided just like that. When he came to his senses and thought about it, this matter might not be that simple.

Now all parts of the country are engaged in construction, and the industries that need to be controlled are not one or two, and the territory controlled by the old He family is not necessarily clean. After all, these days, if the GDP does not increase, there is no political achievement to speak of.

But he has already slipped into Vice Premier Liang's trap, and there is absolutely no reason to back down.What's more, no matter whose interests are involved, the fundamental principle of national justice must be taken.

Easier said than done, He Chaoyang's brain was already working fast, and he even sorted out the order of the contact list after he went out.

However, Director He, who had just left the university, immediately thought of a very serious question.

What about Ling Wei?Mayor Ling is coming to the capital to see him!
