Chapter 31 1. Inspection

Neither Hong Wenshan nor Xia Wentian expected that Governor Zhao Changzheng would launch a surprise attack in Dongzhou.It was Zheng Yi, the leader of the Yanzhitun Gujing demolition service team, who discovered Governor Zhao's car parked in Gujing Hutong. Governor Zhao led several provincial leaders to visit door to door.Zheng Yi hurriedly called Diao Yide, the director of the city's demolition office. Diao Yide was taken aback, and quickly reported to the deputy mayor in charge, He Zhendong. He Zhendong notified Xia Wentian, and Xia Wentian rushed to Yanzhitun while calling Hong Wenshan.

When Hong Wenshan learned that Zhao Changzheng suddenly appeared in Yanzhitun without saying hello, he thought to himself, it seems that Governor Zhao is here to find fault, so he became more cautious. After receiving Xia Wentian's call, he immediately asked his secretary Zhang Xiaoquan to Prepare the car, and at the same time, let Zhang Xiaoquan notify the head of the relevant department to rush to Yanzhitun immediately. Hong Wenshan, Xia Wentian, and He Zhendong arrived at Yanzhitun almost at the same time, and afterward, Zhou Yongnian, Zhu Wenjin, and Lin Dake also rushed over respectively.Yanzhitun was immediately full of cars.

At this time, half of the residents of Yanzhitun had gone to visit relatives and friends and left their former residences. Due to the demolition as they went, Yanzhitun was already in ruins. Zhao Changzheng stood on the ruins and stared at the houses that had not been demolished. He came, and said with a smile: "Lao Hong, Wen Tian, ​​it seems that you are the eyes and ears everywhere in Dongzhou. You rushed here as soon as I arrived, and you didn't give me a chance!" "Governor Zhao, if we can't even find out the position of governor, how can we serve the leader!" Xia Wentian said mockingly.

"Wen Tian, ​​don't just think about serving the leaders, but think more about serving the people. Let me ask you, since it's a shanty town renovation, why did the people only move out half of it?" Governor Zhao asked with a smile. "There are two main reasons. One is that due to resettlement in different places, the common people are hard to leave their homeland, and they have a land-loving complex; the other is that the Rainbow City has not yet been completed, and the common people cannot be resettled immediately. They have no relatives and no friends, so they can only rely on the help of the government, but Dongzhou has not yet established a housing security system, and the government has not yet come up with a good solution for so many relocated households." Xia Wentian said realistically.

Hong Wenshan felt that Xia Wentian's report was inappropriate, so he quickly interrupted and added: "Actually, there are still ways, but they are being implemented." "Old Hong, I'd like to hear what your solution is?" Zhao Changzheng asked with interest. "There are more than a thousand real estate developers in Dongzhou. The Municipal Construction Committee is working to mobilize them to provide a batch of idle houses. The municipal government will rent and resettle these residents. They can move to new homes after waiting at most one year." Hong Wenshan Said without hesitation.

"It's a good idea. I'm afraid it's not easy for real estate developers to do their jobs?" Zhao Changzheng said half inquiring and half teasingly. "Governor Zhao, there is nothing to do. Whoever performs well will get priority in getting good land. Land is the lifeblood of real estate developers." He Zhendong interjected. "Zhendong, the market economy is about survival of the fittest and fair competition. It's better to use less administrative means! Lao Hong, Wen Tian, ​​let's go to the homes of ordinary people to have a look." After Zhao Changzheng finished speaking, he strode down the ruins and walked towards the homes of ordinary people who had not yet been demolished.After walking through two houses, there was no one there. When they reached the third house, the host came out to greet him. Xia Wentian saw that it was none other than Gu Yunchang who he had visited before.

"Old Gu, Governor Zhao is here to see you." Xia Wentian said with a smile. "Xiuzhi, here comes a distinguished guest!" Gu Yunchang shouted into the room at a loss, and hurriedly said while shouting, "Governor Zhao, leaders, the house is too chaotic and out of shape, welcome!" Li Xiuzhi was making dumplings, and greeted her hurriedly with flour on her hands. "The leaders are here just in time, try the dumplings I made." Li Xiuzhi said happily. "Governor Zhao, this is the male owner of this family, named Gu Yunchang; this is the female owner of this family, named Li Xiuzhi. After being laid off, the couple made a living selling vegetables." Xia Wentian introduced.

"Oh, Comrade Yunchang, you two seem to have some happy event?" Zhao Changzheng asked kindly. "To tell the truth, Governor Zhao, we got the room number for affordable housing yesterday." Gu Yunchang said happily. "That's what happened," Xia Wentian quickly explained, "there are nearly 200 sets of affordable housing in the city, and some of the residents of Yanzhitun can be resettled first, but there are too many people, so we have to apply for registration and then lottery. Gu and his wife were very lucky to get the room number first." "So, you two don't have to wait for a house in Rainbow City, and you can live in a new house immediately." Zhao Changzheng said happily.

"Thanks to the leaders, I have been looking forward to it all my life, and finally I can live in a new house." Li Xiuzhi said excitedly. "When we got the room number, we were so excited that we hugged each other. The room number is also very good, it is 803, and the level is also very good, but..." Gu Yunchang said halfway. "Just what?" Zhao Changzheng asked with a smile. "It's only 250,000 yuan, which is too expensive, so we have no choice but to take out a loan." Gu Yunchang said regretfully. "The down payment is 100,000 yuan, and our family savings are only 40,000 yuan, so we had to borrow 60,000 yuan from my sister." Li Xiuzhi said sadly.

"If you take out a loan, how much do you have to pay back to the bank every month?" Zhao Changzheng asked with concern. "If you take out a loan, you will have to pay the bank a monthly mortgage of 2,000 yuan." Gu Yunchang said without confidence. "Are you under a lot of pressure?" Zhao Changzheng asked warmly. "The pressure is still quite high. Whether I can get this house at the age of 60 is still a question mark. There are still ten years to go. There will be ups and downs. It is impossible for something to happen. What if I get sick? It's hard to predict, there are still ten years, not a day. But I will definitely not give up. In the future, I will take one step at a time. I will try my best to live peacefully until I am sixty years old. I have an explanation to the child's mother. After all, after the age of fifty, you will have a house." Gu Yunchang said with mixed feelings.

"Old Hong, Wen Tian, ​​Comrade Yunchang's worries are exactly my worries. Renovating a shanty town is easy, but how to make residents move and live is the key to the problem." Before Zhao Changzheng could finish his sentence, Hong Wenshan took over and said, "Old Zhao, the city will also consider the overall situation, first solve housing, and then solve employment. Residents living in Dongzhou not only want to live in peace, but also want to work happily. Only when you live and work in peace and contentment can you be harmonious. Comrade Xiuzhi, we all smell the aroma of the dumplings you made, so we won’t let Governor Zhao taste it.” "Governor Zhao, all leaders, please sit in the room, and I will cook dumplings for everyone." Li Xiuzhi said enthusiastically. "Thank you, Comrade Xiuzhi, we won't bother you. Lao Hong, Wen Tian, ​​shall we go to Rainbow City to take a look?" After Zhao Changzheng finished speaking, he warmly shook hands with Gu Yunchang and Li Xiuzhi to say goodbye, and everyone got into the car one after another. Heibaba's convoy, led by the leading vehicle of the Municipal Public Security Bureau's security department, drove to Rainbow City. He Zhendong had already judged that Governor Zhao was likely to go to the Rainbow City construction site. When he left the city hall, he asked Lai Dong to notify Chen Jinfa, and Chen Jinfa made careful preparations. Rainbow City is being excavated underground. The construction site is full of colorful flags. It is a bustling scene. Banners are hung on the gate of the temporary construction site: the grade is not high, the level is high, the area is not large, the functions are not large, the cost is not good, the quality is good, and the area is not large. The environment is beautiful. After Zhao Changzheng got off the car, he saw the big red banner at first sight, "Old Hong, this slogan is well written. Affordable housing is to be economical and applicable, and use limited space to create the most suitable living environment. The development unit Which real estate company is it?" He Zhendong hastily stepped forward and interjected: "Governor Zhao, the development unit is Tongda Group, a large-scale real estate development enterprise integrating real estate development and operation, property management and service, with first-class real estate development qualification. It is worth mentioning that , the developer is an entrepreneurial hero in a wheelchair." "How do you say that?" Zhao Changzheng asked with interest. "The developer's name is Chen Jinfa. He suffered from polio since he was a child and has been sitting in a wheelchair for many years. He is a developer who is physically and mentally disabled." He Zhendong boasted while spitting. "It's great, it's great, I don't invite Comrade Chen Jinfa here, I want to get to know him." Zhao Changzheng said happily. At this time, a chubby man in a suit and leather shoes was sitting in a wheelchair, and he rushed over by himself shaking the wheelchair with difficulty.This is Chen Jinfa. The difference is that the four bodyguards carrying him are gone. Chen Jinfa also took off the sunglasses he usually wears and puts on a pair of gold-rimmed glasses instead. Hong Wenshan and Xia Wentian were not familiar with the disabled entrepreneurial hero that He Zhendong praised. They only knew that there were several real estate developers competing to develop Rainbow City, and this disabled entrepreneurial hero won the bid in one fell swoop.The situation about Chen Jinfa and Tongda Group Company was only known after listening to He Zhendong's report. "Needless to say, you are Comrade Chen Jinfa?" Zhao Changzheng asked cordially while holding Chen Jinfa's hand enthusiastically. "Hello! Governor Zhao, welcome provincial and municipal leaders to inspect Rainbow City." After exchanging pleasantries with Governor Zhao, Chen Jinfa briefly reported the construction scale, land use, project quality, house layout design and construction material usage of Rainbow City. Zhao Changzheng nodded frequently, "Comrade Jinfa, it is very difficult for a healthy person to start a business. A disabled person needs a spiritual transcendence to start a business. How did you start your business?" Experience is interesting. "Governor Zhao, I started my business by selling vegetables, watermelons, ice cream, and melon seeds. After earning a few thousand yuan, I used the money to rent a ten-square-meter bungalow facing the street and hired three Young man, I’m in the beer business, and I specialize in delivering them to small restaurants and small shops. I accumulated hundreds of thousands of dollars a little bit. Then I opened a shop, and I also set up a packaging and transportation team. The business finally has a scale, with millions of dollars a year. After earning income, the business was further expanded. In addition to trading companies, food companies, and transportation companies, I also set up taxi companies and construction companies. By 1994, I had accumulated nearly ten million funds. This was my first business. A pot of gold has also laid the foundation for my real estate market." Chen Jinfa talked eloquently, which made the people present sigh. "Comrade Jinfa, our era needs entrepreneurial heroes, and more importantly, entrepreneurial heroes in wheelchairs." Zhao Changzheng praised. "Governor Zhao, you don't know that the moment when others carry me is the most painful time for me. I am a representative of the Xitang District People's Congress. Every time I hold a people's meeting, I can't help wiping my tears." Chen The blond said passionately. "Why?" Zhao Changzheng asked puzzled. "Everyone stands up to sing the national anthem. Everyone can stand up. At such a solemn moment, I can only sit. I feel very uncomfortable." Chen Jinfa said emotionally. "Lao Hong, Wen Tian, ​​entrepreneurs like Comrade Jinfa should publicize it well. Not all disabled people are weak. As long as they have firm beliefs and constantly explore their potential, they can realize their ideals. We need a lot Entrepreneurs like Comrade Chen Jinfa are self-improvement. Comrade Jinfa, I can rest assured that Rainbow City will be handed over to a developer like you!" After Zhao Changzheng finished speaking, the audience burst into applause. Leaving Rainbow City, the convoy drove to the sports center. After inspecting the construction site, Hong Wenshan formally reported to Zhao Changzheng at the construction command headquarters.He first introduced the development of the city's real estate market, and then focused on the role of the city's real estate in stimulating Dongzhou's economy. We have begun to get rid of the adverse effects caused by the "Xiaojia case" and gradually stepped out of the trough. In the next step, we will "take the building economy as a breakthrough and implement the deep cultivation strategy" on the basis of "establishing the real estate industry" and increase investment attraction. Strive to make Dongzhou's economy climb to the next level as soon as possible and create glory as soon as possible." Hong Wenshan reported with gusto, and Zhu Wenjin who was sitting beside him was sweating for Hong Wenshan, because he had been observing Zhao Changzheng's expression. Although Zhao Changzheng listened carefully, his expression was solemn and his brows were furrowed. It was not Zhu Wenjin's original intention to write the report materials like this. His original intention was to talk about affordable housing in terms of affordable housing and report a problem thoroughly.Because he knows that Dongzhou, as an equipment manufacturing base, is in a critical period of historical development. If you seize this opportunity, you will achieve a leap forward. If you miss this opportunity, you will fall behind an era.The equipment manufacturing industry is the most important pillar industry in Dongzhou and even Qingjiang Province. In the eyes of Zhao Changzheng, the equipment manufacturing industry is not only the industry of Dongzhou, but also the foundation of Qingjiang Province. Basically, we can only talk about the equipment manufacturing industry. At present, Hong Wenshan's view of "real estate industry building a market" is obviously not to Zhao Changzheng's taste. "Old Hong, does the building economy mean that the real estate developer wants to demolish any building, and the government will help demolish that building? Does the deep-plowing economy mean that the real estate agent sells the land that the real estate agent wants?" Zhao Changzheng pointedly ask. "Comrade Long March, you may have misunderstood what I mean. Our building economy and deep cultivation strategy are carried out around Jiefang Street. The Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government are determined to build Jiefang Street into the 'Golden Street' of Dongzhou City in three to five years." Silver Belt', the first commercial street in Asia, has been built on Jiefang Street. At present, there are Future City, Vientiane City, and Knight Hotel on Jiefang Street. As the work of attracting investment continues to deepen, more five-star hotels, commercial plazas, and high-end office buildings will be placed on Jiefang Street. Once completed, Jiefang Street in Dongzhou will be as prosperous as Central in Hong Kong.” Hong Wenshan is full of ambition Say. "Comrade Wen Tian, ​​you, an economic expert, should also say a few words." Zhao Changzheng saw Xia Wentian sitting next to Hong Wenshan with his head bowed without saying a word, so he nodded.Zhao Changzheng had noticed early on that Xia Wentian was emotional, and Hong Wenshan was having a talk in Dongzhou. Xia Wentian did not expect that Zhao Changzheng would suddenly point to himself, thinking, what did I say, I said that Dongzhou should be established as a city based on equipment manufacturing, he Hong Wenshan would not listen to it, if he spoke out his own mind, Hong Wenshan would definitely Dissatisfied, this is not conducive to the unity of the team, but if Hong Wenshan's wrong practices are not stopped, the equipment manufacturing industry will miss a good opportunity for development. The great trust of the eight million people in Dongzhou will disappoint the trust of the central government and the provincial party committee. It can be seen that Governor Zhao is opposed to Hong Wenshan's views. If Comrade Hong Wenshan's mistakes are corrected at this report meeting , It is undoubtedly a blessing for the overall economic development of Dongzhou. So Xia Wentian plucked up his courage and said: "My point of view is that building a house cannot build a strong economic city, a strong economic province, or a strong economic country. In the past, the pillar industries of the United States were railways, steel, oil, aircraft and automobile manufacturing. industry, and now it is the aerospace and information industries. Relying on these pillars, the United States now almost monopolizes the global GPS, arms, industry, and airliner markets, supports politics, economy, military, and culture with huge profits, and builds a global empire in the information age in an all-round way.” "Wen Tian, ​​you are going too far. We are talking about Dongzhou, which is not comparable to the United States." Hong Wenshan interjected dissatisfied. Hong Wenshan thought to himself, Xia Wentian, if you don't agree with the secretary of the municipal party committee at a critical moment, isn't this clearly telling Zhao Changzheng that the top leaders of the Dongzhou party and government are not in harmony?If this gets to the ears of Lin Bai, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, where will my face, Hong Wenshan, be put? It turned out that before Hong Wenshan took office as Secretary of Dongzhou Municipal Party Committee, Lin Bai had an in-depth discussion with Hong Wenshan, emphasizing that Xiao Honglin’s corruption was directly related to the disagreement between the top leaders of the party and government. As a result, Xiao Honglin became more arrogant, lost all restraint, and finally led to corruption.At that time, Xiao Honglin not only refused to participate in serious and important standing committees, but he was often late for participation. "Secretary standing committee members wait for mayor" was a frequent scene. Put it elsewhere, it may be a political event, because it is related to who is the core of the leadership.Because of this, Lin Bai repeatedly emphasized the unity of the team, and Hong Wenshan also made a promise to Lin Bai.Now that Xia Wentian went against the decision of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, and threw out another set, which was exactly the same as Xiao Honglin back then, Hong Wenshan was very angry. "Old Hong, please don't interrupt Comrade Wen Tian. Wen Tian, ​​please continue." Zhao Changzheng said seriously. "Japan's pillar industries are automobiles, electronics, optics and computer industries. Relying on these, Japan has laid the foundation for the world's second largest economy and achieved national rejuvenation. South Korea is no exception. South Korea has listed shipbuilding as a pillar industry Based on this, South Korea is now not only emerging in the automotive and electronics industries, but also in the military industry, ready to compete for the world. So far, in the history of the world economy, only the traditional manufacturing industry and the emerging information industry have supported and driven the contemporary In the story of the modernization and development of a big country, there is no myth that any country brings the country into modernization with the help of buildings. This is because the former not only brings products, but also stimulates technological progress, improves efficiency, and forms a virtuous circle of huge profits and expanded reproduction. The core of this cycle is sustainable development. The development of the real estate industry can only drive the huge loss of coal, steel, and land. However, Governor Zhao, Dongzhou also has Dongzhou's difficulties, "The real estate industry Establishing a city is also an expedient measure." Xia Wentian changed the topic, and brought the topic back, "As we all know, after the 'Xiao Jia case', Dongzhou's economy once fell to the bottom, and the government couldn't even pay the salaries of civil servants. , foreign businessmen are no longer coming, and some countries have listed Dongzhou as an economic investment risk area. Expect." "Let me interject." Seeing that Xia Wentian had turned the topic back, Hong Wenshan interjected, "Comrade Changzheng, under the current system, local governments have unequal financial and administrative powers, financial difficulties, and seeking financial resources outside the budget. As a province It should also be understood that in the case of tax sharing between the central and local governments, the central government collects financial power on the one hand, and on the other hand transfers most of the responsibility for the supply of public goods to the local governments, which will inevitably lead to an excessive proportion of fiscal expenditures. When the financial self-sufficiency rate declines, when the fiscal revenue of the local government at the same level is not enough to balance the fiscal expenditure, the local government has only two options: one is to seek transfer payments from the central government, that is, to go to the "department" and "money" to enter; It is seeking to develop outside the budget. Now the only resource monopolized by local governments is land.” "So you are eager for quick success and instant benefits, building large-scale construction projects, building the Golden Street and Silver Belt, and calling all industries that can directly bring short-term benefits 'pillars'. The equipment manufacturing industry is the real pillar industry, but no one cares about it. Engage in the 'City Building Movement'. I heard that Lao Hong also proposed a new concept of 'managing the city'. Comrades, we can't just focus on Dongzhou, the real estate industry, the building economy, the deep cultivation strategy, the golden street Take, in the short term, Dongzhou’s finances can indeed be enriched all of a sudden, but in the overall, in the long run, especially in terms of the interests and losses of different social classes, this will not only damage the long-term interests of Dongzhou, but also bring trouble for the black water. The long-term development of the region has buried hidden dangers of structural imbalance and lower overall competitiveness." Just as Zhao Changzheng was making a generous speech, He Zhendong's belly was distended and he slipped out down the urethra.Seeing Deputy Mayor He slipping out, Gu Changshan, the mayor of Shifo District, quietly followed him. "Mayor He, I have something to report to you." Gu Changshan used to be the deputy director of the Municipal Land and Resources Bureau, and he became the mayor of Shifo District only under the mediation of He Zhendong. "Chang Shan, you have to talk about it when you pee." He Zhendong said while urinating. "Mayor He, a personal matter is also a good thing. Didn't you tell me to find some business and let Baoshan do it? There is an ecological protection forest in Beitantou Village, let him rent it." Gu Changshan said courteously. "Changshan, my brother-in-law is only going to waste land when he is a real estate company. He gambles when he earns a lot of money. A building can't stand up. I told his sister that Yu Baoshan would never want to get an inch of land from me, that is to say, looking at my wife who is paralyzed on the bed, I have to find some money for him. Strong, but what's the use of renting an ecological shelter forest? Maybe it's for him to travel." He Zhendong said while zipping. "Mayor He, renting this ecological protection forest is just a cover. This forest covers 2,000 acres, and it only costs 8,000 yuan to rent it out a year. But this forest includes a golden beach by the Heishui River, and sand is produced every year. If you can earn more than 20 million yuan, let Baoshan rent this forest, and I will handle the formalities, this business is like a pie in the sky." Gu Changshan said with a flattering smile. "Okay, Chang Shan, that's a good idea, I'll let Baoshan find you later!" He Zhendong patted Gu Changshan on the shoulder and said. "Mayor He, this is what I should do, who made me your brother!" Gu Changshan said humbly. The two said they were brothers and confessed to each other before leaving the toilet with their shoulders crossed.Compared with Zhou Yongnian and Lin Dake, He Zhendong is very good at managing his own circle. He Zhendong believes that in the future Dongzhou officialdom, there are only two people who can compete with him. One is Zhou Yongnian, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, and the other is the executive deputy mayor. Lin Dake, and these two people both claim to be honest and diligent, and never treat their subordinates in a friendly manner. From He Zhendong's point of view, they simply don't understand politics.Politicians must be good at building their own circle. He Zhendong pays special attention to cultivating his own influence in the county (city) district, because the county (city) district chief controls the county (city) district people's congress representative, and the next county (city) district Being long is equivalent to winning the votes of most of the people's congress deputies in this county (city) district.This is especially important when competing for the mayor of Dongzhou City in the future.Ah Zhendong has dreamed about the position of mayor of Dongzhou City for an unknown amount of time.
