Chapter 52 Seven, confrontation

After Xia Wentian learned about the actual situation of Liu Wenlong and Xu Tianfeng, he thought a lot about it. He knew very well that in a developed country, if you don't move, the railway will turn around.In recent years, there have been shocking bloody cases in many cities in China caused by demolition disputes. Whenever Xia Wentian saw such news, he would ask himself: "What's wrong with our society?" The actual situation is not optimistic.As far as Dongzhou City is concerned, since the era of Xiao Honglin and Jia Chaoxuan, on the issue of demolition, there has been a struggle between the real Communists and the broad masses of the people and the small group of corrupt elements within the party. This struggle is nationwide. It is already related to whether the Chinese nation can normally enter a civilized and legal society, and it is related to the progress of the whole society.

Regarding the small brothel issue, Xia Wentian was very aware of Hong Wenshan's attitude, which was to resolutely demolish it. Xia Wentian felt that it was necessary to communicate his thoughts with Hong Wenshan. After all, the common people's awareness of rights protection was getting stronger and stronger.Xia Wentian picked up the phone and was about to hail a taxi when He Zhendong opened the door and walked in. "Hey, Zhendong, I was just about to go to the Municipal Party Committee to talk to Comrade Wenshan about the brothel. You know the situation, let's go together."

"Mayor Xia, the Ministry of Land and Resources has issued the "Regulations on the Transfer of State-owned Land Use Rights by Bidding, Auction and Listing", which is the No. 11 document. The land for commercial development projects must be publicly traded through bidding, auction or listing. This is very unfavorable to the "real estate industry establishment" proposed by our city, especially the "Golden Street and Silver Belt" project. I would like to discuss it with you Discuss how to deal with it." "Zhendong, the promulgation of the No. 11 document should be called a 'land revolution' in the real estate industry. There is no problem of response, only the problem of implementation. In fact, we are already ahead of the No. 11 document. The Notice on the Transfer of the State-Owned Land Use Right Agreement, that is, the No. 33 order I issued, is exactly in line with the spirit of the No. 11 document!" Xia Wen said loudly.

"Decree No. 33 stipulates that commercial land except for small towns, green belts, dangerous renovations, high-tech projects, and major projects must be sold through bidding, auction and listing. This is somewhat in conflict with Document No. 11. Do you need to make some changes?" "I don't think there is any need to adapt. The reason why we opened these four openings is because of the actual situation in Dongzhou. Everything cannot be done in one size fits all. Order No. 33 has just been issued and must be implemented for a period of time. It is a taboo to change government orders."

"Great, so our opinions are the same. I also have some ideas about Xiaoqinglou, and I want to communicate with you." "That's good, let's talk at Wenshan's office." He Zhendong had no choice but to follow Xia Wentian out of the office.What He Zhendong wants is Xia Wentian's attitude towards Order No. 33, because with these four openings, he can still use a pen in his hand to approve the flexible things through these four openings as before. The system is dead. But people are alive, thinking of this, He Zhendong smiled treacherously. Recently, Zhou Yongnian heard a lot of reports about the ambiguous relationship between He Zhendong and Fan Zhenzhen, and even received an anonymous letter from the two who had an illegitimate child in Australia.So early in the morning, he came to Hong Wenshan's office to communicate.

Hong Wenshan was the deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and was very sensitive to such matters. In fact, he had long heard of He Zhendong's indiscretion in the relationship between men and women.It happened that Xia Wentian called and said that he and He Zhendong would come over to discuss work, Hong Wenshan thought it was an opportunity.Zhou Yongnian heard that the top leaders of the party and government were going to study together, and felt that he was inconvenient, so he got up to leave, but was stopped by Hong Wenshan. "Yongnian, Wen Tian and Zhendong came here together. Let's discuss how to deal with the brothel issue. We can also take this opportunity to talk to Comrade Zhendong, so we can prevent problems before they happen!"

The two were talking, Xia Wentian and He Zhendong walked in chatting happily. "Yo, Yongnian is here, that's great, I just want to hear your opinion about the brothel!" Xia Wentian said happily. At this time, Long Xiaobo came in and made tea for several leaders. Zhou Yongnian lit a cigarette and said with great interest: "To talk about the issue of brothels, we must first talk about the "Regulations on the Administration of Urban House Demolition and Relocation". When you start to get rich, you need urban construction and renovation. You need to repay the old debts owed by years of urban construction and renovation. You need to unblock the sewers, straighten the roads, do a good job of greening, etc., around the implementation of the "Urban Planning Law". "Regulations on the Administration of Urban House Demolition and Relocation". At that time, a very important and clear guiding ideology was to improve the housing conditions of urban residents through old city reconstruction and house demolition. There is no doubt that house demolition first promoted my country's economic development, but it also became a One of the focal points of social conflicts in our country at present. I learned from the "Internal Reference" that 40% of the petitioners from the State Letters and Calls Office are due to land acquisition and demolition. Among the petitioners received by the Ministry of Construction, 70% are due to House demolition, what does this mean?"

Zhou Yongnian stopped here abruptly.Everyone was silent for a moment, Xia Wentian took over the conversation and said: "This shows that the unreasonable demolition is no longer demolition of houses, but the demolition of the Communist Party's flag. Because the flag of the party is to serve the people, and many unreasonable demolition is not for the people. , it is to promote financial services, that is, to serve money, and it is to sacrifice the interests of the majority to benefit the few. This kind of demolition does not demolish the house, but the cornerstone of our republic. Recently, because of the small brothel incident, I revisited I read the "Constitution" again. Article 1 of the "Constitution" stipulates: The People's Republic of China is a socialist country under the people's democratic dictatorship led by the working class and based on the alliance of workers and peasants. The interests of interest groups are tilted, and they do not really safeguard the interests of the people, especially the interests of the working class, peasants, and urban civilians living at the bottom. Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it. Don't forget." Xia Wentian was emotional and talked eloquently.

"Wentian, Yongnian, your point of view is reasonable, but it does not match the situation in Yanzhitun. Yanzhitun is not an unreasonable demolition as you said, but a public support project, a moral government project, and a real dilapidated house renovation project. It is not too late to say that the reconstruction of Yanzhitun is too late. It has been more than 50 years since liberation, and thousands of households still live in dilapidated dilapidated houses. Can you be safe?" Hong Wenshan retorted. "I agree with Secretary Hong. Last year, the biggest difference in the No. 305 "Regulations on the Management of Urban House Demolition" issued by the State Council was that it realized the monetary compensation system based on market prices and improved the compulsory demolition system. That is to say, it was not easy to negotiate. As far as the ruling is concerned, if the ruling is not implemented, it will be enforced. I mean that the small brothel will take the road of compulsory demolition sooner or later."

Before He Zhendong finished speaking, Zhou Yongnian asked solemnly, "Why?" "Because Liu Wenlong and Xu Tianfeng didn't talk about compensation at all, they made up their minds not to demolish it. This has seriously affected the progress of Yanzhitun's renovation. I have another piece of information that I want to inform you. The Senhao Group in our city is owned by the Knight Fund major shareholder." As soon as He Zhendong spoke, Hong Wenshan, Xia Wentian and Zhou Yongnian were all surprised. "Zhendong, is the news reliable?" Hong Wenshan asked in surprise.

"It's absolutely reliable," He Zhendong said with his triangular eyes. "Let me tell you, Bai Changxing and Bai Zhigang should be invited to show up. Maybe the developer and the owner of the brothel will meet directly, and the effect will be better than the city's demolition office." "It seems that Dongzhou's real estate industry is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. Don't look at Bai Changxing who is usually not showy, but has a US-funded background. Wen Tian, ​​the government of real estate developers like Bai Changxing and Bai Zhigang should dig it out. This is all Dongzhou. The sycamore tree in Dongzhou, with the sycamore tree, why not attract the Golden Phoenix. I said that William Matthews is so interested in investing in Dongzhou, so there is an internal response!" Hong Wenshan said with a smile. "It would be better for Senhao Group to cooperate with the municipal demolition office to do the work of Liu Wenlong and Xu Tianfeng. However, we can also think about it from another angle. Can we do Bai Changxing's work in reverse and ask him to come forward to do the work of William?" The work of Matthews does not demolish the brothel, and the location of the brothel does not affect the development of the Knights Hotel." Xia Wentian said carefully. "I agree with Wen Tian's idea. At present, large-scale demolition and large-scale relocation have become the trough of social conflicts. This kind of trust crisis often leads to mass incidents. In fact, I did not agree to build a seven-star hotel at the beginning. I counted it. By attracting investment, Jiefang Street will build more than a dozen five-star hotels and more than 20 shopping centers. Is this repeated construction? Is it necessary? Yanzhitun has a history of more than 300 years, and the dilapidated buildings are caused by years of disrepair Yes, in fact, there are many valuable old houses there, all of which are more than a hundred years old. Although the style and scale cannot catch up with the ancient city of Lijiang in Yunnan, many old houses can be preserved after careful evaluation and repair, and then based on the original style: First, build some new houses and resettle the people on the spot. It should be a good tourism project in Dongzhou. Unfortunately, we blindly pursue skyscrapers in urban construction, and the style and features of the ancient city have disappeared. Culture is the soul of a city. , the charm of a city does not lie in how many high-rise buildings there are, but in its historical and cultural heritage. Our cities are becoming more and more modern, but the historical memory of the city and the way of life as urban folk customs are getting farther and farther away from people. I think Urban construction under the banner of "development" destroys the inheritance of history and the existing cultural heritage. On the issue of urban cultural inheritance, the city should be considered as a positive force for cultural inheritance in order to find a solution to urban cultural inheritance. key." What Zhou Yongnian said made He Zhendong feel very uncomfortable. This is tantamount to completely negating his achievements in urban construction. He Zhendong has always had opinions on Zhou Yongnian. He is a dangerous person, and what he said today was obviously aimed at himself. He Zhendong shot a scheming gaze from his triangular eyes, and immediately transferred the contradiction to Hong Wenshan. "Yongnian, you mean to say that Secretary Hong's policy of 'establishing the real estate industry' is wrong, and the 'Golden Street and Silver Belt' project is not a construction but a destruction. Isn't it too irresponsible to say that? In modern civilization In society, the height of a building can represent the progress of a city's development. Of course, it is not built blindly. If Dongzhou builds a harmonious and beautiful high-rise area on both sides of Jiefang Street, it will truly form a veritable "Golden Street and Silver Belt". Why not drive the overall value of the site, achieve the harmony and unity of the landscape, and improve the function of the city?" "Wentian, Yongnian, I think you two are too conservative in terms of urban construction concepts. Zhendong is right. The height of a building is indeed a symbol of urban development. In fact, no matter in the East or the West, 'height' has important meaning. The aesthetic value of high-rise buildings has always been associated with holiness, dignity, power and authority. It is because of this powerful spiritual value of high-rise buildings that high-rise buildings are more attractive than other elements in the man-made environment. In addition, high-rise buildings The first and most significant effect of skyscrapers is that it can save land, which has a very positive effect on adjusting the urban spatial structure, reducing traffic load, improving work efficiency, and improving the working and living environment. Since the location of skyscrapers is generally more important , the volume and scale are also relatively large, and the shapes are also diverse and full of characteristics. It occupies an important position in the urban landscape environment and has a great impact on the overall image of the city. It has become the center of people's attention and a symbol of the city. I advise you two to have a chance to go to Manhattan in New York, Ginza in Tokyo, and Central in Hong Kong to take a good look. They are called internationalization and modernization!" Hong Wenshan waved his hands boldly say. "That's right, Lao Hong. The theory of 'height is the beauty' was once popular in the world's architectural circles, but it has long been abandoned by the world's architectural circles because it has been proved in practice that buildings that are too tall are very unsuitable for human habitation. Even in the United States, it is now Strict control has been implemented on the height of buildings. It is a misunderstanding of urban architecture to rely on height to compete for strength. Being close to nature, sunshine and green grass are the ideal homes for human beings." Zhou Yongnian seriously retorted. "Old Hong, Yongnian, Zhendong, I think you guys are going too far, let's discuss what to do with the brothel." Xia Wentian said pragmatically. "My opinion is to do everything possible to do the work of Tong Liu Wenlong and Xu Tianfeng. The small brothel must be demolished, so as not to affect the overall style of the Knights Hotel. Doing so is also a need for integrity. After all, we have made a promise to William Matthews." Hong Wenshan Said resolutely. "I agree with Secretary Hong's opinion. The Municipal Demolition Office has done a lot of patient and meticulous work a while ago, but the effect is not good. My opinion is to ask Senhao Group to do more work. At least the amount of compensation can be increased, which may impress Liu Wenlong and Xu Tianfeng." He Zhendong echoed. "What if the work still doesn't work?" Zhou Yongnian asked. "That can only be enforced." He Zhendong said indifferently. "No, it is absolutely not allowed to intensify the conflict. To be honest, Lao Hong, the small brothel reminds me of Kaiser Wilhelm I's construction of the palace in Potsdam. At that time, there was a mill near the palace that affected the image. William I wanted to pay a high price for the mill. The old miller bought it and dismantled it, but the old miller was determined not to sell it. William I demolished the mill in anger. The old miller went to court, and the court ruled that William I must "restore the original state". This old mill has become a judicial institution in Germany. Why do I say forced demolition is not advisable, like the 'old mill', economically, it should be demolished 10,000 times, but from the perspective of the nation's legal system and democratic process, it must never be demolished by force! There is no reason why the achievements of construction should not be shared by the demolished people! Therefore, I suggest to do the work at both ends, not only the work of Liu Wenlong and Xu Tianfeng, but also the work of William Matthews, Bai Changxing and Bai Zhigang. The city government will bear the loss!" Xia Wentian said earnestly. "Wen Tian, ​​if you are the mayor, you can decide. The premise is that the development of Yanzhitun and the construction of the 'Golden Street and Silver Belt' cannot be affected." Hong Wenshan said compromisingly. "Well, I still have a meeting, so I'll take my leave first." Xia Wentian got up to leave, and He Zhendong also said, "I have an on-site office meeting in Rainbow City, so I have to leave too." "Zhendong, wait a minute, Yongnian and I have something to talk to you." Hong Wenshan waved his hand and said. Xia Wentian smiled and turned to leave, He Zhendong sat on the sofa helplessly...
