Chapter 095: The Strong Mayor
Xiao Yunshan appreciated Meng Jinxing's frankness, and the two immediately discussed their views on Sangyu's planning plan. Xiao Yunshan called Xun Zhigang again and adjusted his recent work arrangements according to the time of the special meeting in the city.
After confirming that Xiao Yunshan could participate in the special meeting, Meng Jinxing formally said goodbye and left.
…
The symposium on the Sangyu tourism planning plan was held four days later in the No. 1 conference room of the Shencheng City Government. Meng Jinxing took Sun Fei to Shencheng one day in advance, and finally held a meeting with the designers and relevant personnel from the County Construction Bureau.
, make final adjustments to relevant details.
On the day of the meeting, the main leaders of the Municipal Planning Commission, Municipal Finance Bureau, Municipal Construction Bureau, Municipal Tourism Bureau, Municipal Investment Promotion Bureau, Municipal Overseas Chinese Affairs Office, and Water, Electricity and Transportation departments attended the meeting. Fu Chengming did not appear at the meeting that day.
Fei looked at the shiny heads in the huge conference room, and his calves felt tight.
After working for so many years, this was the first time for him to experience such an occasion, and he also had to serve as the introducer of the plan. He was really worried that he would mess up the matter due to stage fright.
Meng Jinxing saw Sun Fei's nervousness clearly, pushed a cup of hot tea in front of Sun Fei at the right time, and gave him an encouraging look.
The meeting was chaired by Zhu Dongsheng, director of the Project Office of the Municipal Planning Commission.
Xu Feifan attended the meeting instead of Weng Canhui. Although he did not make any speech, the special nature of his status made all the leaders of the participating units deal with the meeting's issues with great energy.
With Meng Jinxing's encouragement, Sun Fei gradually calmed down after the formal lecture, and got into a better mood as he spoke, demonstrating the features of the plan to all participating leaders.
As Meng Jinxing said when reporting to Weng Canhui, the entire plan was developed within the regulatory planning of Changfeng Tourism Development, and all designs are in line with Shanghai's current policies. Therefore, at the specific discussion stage, all relevant units have
They fully affirmed the plan and suggested that the next step of applying for various procedures should be carried out as soon as possible.
Only Cheng Hong, deputy director of the Electric Power Bureau, raised a question, which was also mentioned in the plan, regarding the power construction of the entire Sangyu.
He said: "Based on the city's Ninth Five-Year Plan and the overall arrangements of the provincial bureau, our bureau does have plans to use Changfeng's water resources advantages to develop and build hydropower stations to solve the problem of no power supply in some areas of Changfeng. However, so far,
The preliminary site selection work has not yet been completed, and towns with congested traffic such as Sangyu Township have not yet been included in the consideration scope. I hope that Sangyu Township can understand this, because we will not be able to solve the power supply problem in this area in the short term.
"
Just as Cheng Hong finished speaking, Weng Canhui walked into the conference room.
After a small commotion, Weng Canhui sat down and listened to Xu Feifei's brief report on the situation in a low voice. He pointed directly at Cheng Hong and said: "The Sangyu project will be a key project in the city in the next few years, and the power department should still give strong support! If and
If there is anything that needs to be coordinated by the Provincial General Administration, please make an appointment and I will go with you in person. As far as I know, there is still room for adjustment in your plan. As for the issue of traffic congestion, as it happens, traffic
Lao Zhao is here, you can ask him, at what stage is the construction of the Shen-Sang Highway going?"
Zhao Fengshou, director of the Transportation Bureau, immediately responded: "The project approval and construction approval procedures have been completed. We are currently negotiating with banks for loans. The self-raised funds from Changfeng and Sangyu have been in place. Construction can start immediately after the Lunar New Year."
Weng Canhui immediately pointed at Meng Jinxing and asked: "Aren't you going to build rural roads? How is the progress?"
Meng Jinxing could not say on such an occasion that the county finance department had falsely reported the project to the city, and Weng Canhui's intention was to persuade the power department to first select a site to build a power station in Sangyu. He could only bite the bullet and explain the city's poverty alleviation plan next year.
Once the funds are available, the project can start immediately.
"How's it going, Cheng Hong?" Weng Canhui didn't waste any time. "It's only a matter of time that the traffic problem is solved. Whether you build a power station or not will directly affect whether the subsequent development of Sangyu can proceed smoothly! If I remember correctly,
, the Ninth Five-Year Plan formulated by the power department for Changfeng is to complete the installed capacity of 53,000 kilowatts of small hydropower by the end of 2000, and the annual power supply should reach 1. (billion kilowatt hours, right?"
Cheng Hong nodded to Weng Canhui awkwardly, "Yes."
"So, now that the Ninth Five-Year Plan has been two full years, how much have you accomplished?" Weng Canhui paused for a while, and when Cheng Hong didn't say anything, he continued, "Comrades from the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office happen to be here, you can ask them, Netherlands
Are the investors interested in investing in Fengshan New Town? Let me tell you, if the investment recruitment work cannot be completed because your power department is unwilling to keep up with the pace, I will only ask you!"
Being pushed forward by Weng Canhui step by step, Cheng Hong couldn't bear it and began to complain: "Mayor Weng, this matter must be divided into two. First of all, it's not that we don't want to build! Secondly, the traffic problem is a matter of time, then we
Building a power station is just a matter of time. If we build it at the same time as the transportation department, the investment cost of equipment and lines pulled down from the high voltage level will definitely be different from that after the transportation is completed. The result of our investment regardless of cost is the final rural electricity price.
How to decide? Can you make a decision on the spot like this?"
Everyone present at the meeting looked at each other in shock. No one expected that Weng Canhui would become so positive in promoting the development of Sangyu. What was even more unexpected was that Shencheng’s long-standing rural electricity conflict would be affected by this meeting.
He was flipped onto the table.
Weng Canhui's attitude towards Cheng Hong seemed to be well prepared, "Okay, while everyone is here today, let's just talk about this issue." But he did not answer Cheng Hong's question, but pointed to Xiao Yunshan and asked, "Yun
Shan, would it be okay if your county invested in the construction of this hydropower station on its own?"
As soon as he said this, Cheng Hong became completely anxious, "Mayor Weng, I didn't say not to build it, so there's no need to do it like this, right?"
Xiao Yunshan was happy, and took advantage of the situation to try to squeeze out Cheng Hong, "As long as the city supports us, I will build a power station even if I sell iron and steel!"
"Really!" Weng Canhui said, "The county will provide part of the money. Which towns and villages need electricity, and we will raise part of it ourselves. With such abundant water resources in Changfeng, will we not be able to build power stations?"
Cheng Hong grew tired, lit up a cigarette in frustration, and puffed on it.
Meng Jinxing did not expect such a situation to occur, and did not fully understand why Weng Canhui forced Cheng Hong so unreasonably on this matter, and why Xiao Yunshan heard that Weng Canhui asked the county to invest in building a power station.
So happy?
Even though Changfeng is rich in water resources, Changfeng's townships are scattered and most of them are mountainous areas. The overall investment will definitely not be small. For a poor county that relies on poverty alleviation funds, Meng Jinxing really doesn't understand how Xiao Yunshan can have the confidence to sell everything.
To his surprise, after Cheng Hong finished smoking a cigarette, his attitude changed and he said that he would report this matter to the bureau party committee and the provincial bureau when he got back, and strive to change next year's plan and start with the Sangyu Hydropower Station project.
Weng Canhui did not give in, but asked Xiao Yunshan to go back and formally discuss Changfeng's own investment in the construction of a hydropower station. If necessary, the city government could also participate in the investment. He hoped to work with the power department to ensure that Sangyu's tourism development could proceed smoothly.
After the meeting, they went to the hotel for dinner. Meng Jinxing and Xiao Yunshan were in the same car and finally asked their questions.
Xiao Yunshan chuckled and said to Xun Zhigang who was driving: "Zhigang, tell Xiao Meng."
Xun Zhigang said: "Be careful, you don't know something. Cities in our province that are rich in water conservancy resources basically sell their own agricultural power. Many counties in Shanghai with good economies do this. Every year, this area
The fiscal revenue is a large number. Our county has always had no investment funds, and the small hydropower sector has never been able to keep up, and we have suffered a lot of losses. The county power supply bureau buys electricity from the province every year and uses it for reuse.
You can make a lot of money by going in and out, but the county can only get some tax revenue. When the electricity supply is tight, the boss has to talk to them nicely, and the people below are still scolding you because of the electricity price. That's infuriating!"
"What are you talking about!" Xiao Yunshan immediately stopped Xun Zhigang, "An old friend of Secretary Ge came to see me in Changfeng a while ago and talked about the issue of small hydropower construction. He intended to help the county in this matter. Today Weng Weng
The mayor happened to create an opportunity for us, do you think I can be unhappy?"
When he said this, something suddenly occurred to him and he said to Meng Jinxing: "You must have met Boss Zhou, right?"
"Boss Zhou?" Meng Jinxing was stunned for a moment and then suddenly thought of Uncle Zhou, whom Lei Yunyao often mentioned, "Oh, you are talking about Zhou Botao, Boss Zhou?"
"Yes, that's him!" Xiao Yunshan said, "He has invested in many hydropower stations in the province, and he has quite a lot of experience in this area."
Only then did Meng Jinxing realize that a small power station, which was originally a basic construction project to benefit the people, involved so many practical problems behind it.
Although the meal in the evening was served in Shanghai, the host was the Changfeng County Government, and the guests were naturally the leaders who attended the special meeting that day. Weng Canhui did not come, and Xu Feifan was sent as the representative.
Meng Jinxing followed Xiao Yunshan and toasted one by one. Listening to the vague praises, he drank so much that he had no idea where he ended up in the hotel.
When he woke up the next day, he looked at Sun Fei lying prone on the bed next to him who kept retching. He smiled bitterly and reached into his pocket to take out a cigarette. He didn't touch the cigarette but took out a handful of business cards. A closer look revealed that they were all from yesterday.
The business cards of the participating leaders, which are not open to the public, and the simulated mobile phone numbers that all have the word "9" in the head, mean that Meng Jinxing can directly find them when needed.
Weng Canhui's influence is indeed powerful. Before yesterday, Meng Jinxing could not talk to these leaders no matter which department he entered. After yesterday, he has the qualification to contact them directly.
Therefore, in the officialdom, it is important for generals to have strong abilities, but it is also extremely important to be able to meet the wise master at the right time.
Chapter completed!
