Guo Liguo smiled and said, "Chundong New District is indeed interested in expanding Gaoqiao Port Area. Moreover, we have studied different plans with the Shipping Bureau and the Pujiang Port Authority. By dredging the Tianjiang Channel, Gaoqiao Port Area still has room for expansion, and Tangqiao Port Area can also be built. In the future, Gaoqiao and Tangqiao Port Area can continue to expand."

Bao Feiyang nodded: "Let's assume that the situation that the Secretary-General said goes well, the Gaoqiao Port Area is successfully expanded, and the Tianjiang Channel has also been successfully dredged, with a deep water channel of 15 meters deep..."

"But the world is also developing very quickly. The current situation and potential of Gaoqiao Port can become an international port, but it cannot stand out among many deep-water ports and become the unique one. The Secretary-General also said that Pujiang Port, including Gaoqiao Port District, is a typical hingal port. With the development of China's economy, the hingal area of ​​Pujiang Port will become stronger and stronger, and the requirements for port cargo throughput will become greater and greater, but it will be a hingal port after all!"

Bao Feiyang shook his head and said, "No matter how powerful this hinterland is, relying solely on the hinterland of a country's economy, Pujiang Port is still somewhat lacking in the two key points of becoming an international shipping center. Even with the strong U.S. economic hinterland, the cargo throughput ranking of New York Port in recent years has also declined..."

Strictly speaking, Bao Feiyang's words are obviously biased. At its peak, New York Port was the world's largest port and a world-class shipping center. No one can say that New York Port is inadequate in its world-class and center.

Of course, the situation in Pujiang is different from that of New York. At that time, the United States was the absolute center of the world. Even if China had already ranked second largest economy in the world twenty years later, no one could accurately predict when it could surpass the United States and become the world's largest country.

So Bao Feiyang is not wrong with saying this. Even if the throughput is large, it can be called an international port, but it is hard to say that it is an international shipping center. After all, the status of an international shipping center is not just a cargo throughput indicator that can be summarized!

Zhang Zehu glanced at Bao Feiyang: "Comrade Feiyang, what we are going to talk about today is the World Exhibition. This should have nothing to do with the International Shipping Center, right?"

Bao Feiyang smiled: "Of course it's related!"

"Secretary Zhang just said that holding the World Exhibition is a promotion of the construction of Chundong New Area. Conversely, the World Exhibition also serves the construction of Chundong New Area. The World Exhibition seems to have little to do with the construction of the shipping center in Chundong New Area, but it has an important impact on the overall planning of the Chundong New Area, and will also affect the construction of the shipping center."

Zhang Zehu said: "It sounds reasonable, but I don't have much time. In ten minutes, I will talk to foreign trade and other countries!"

Zhang Zehu was a little impatient and only left Bao Feiyang with ten minutes.

"Don't worry, Secretary Zhang, ten minutes should be enough!" Bao Feiyang said.

"Secretary Zhang, I want to borrow this map on the wall!"

Bao Feiyang greeted Zhang Zehu, then got up and came to the big map hanging on the wall. He first drew a circle on the world map, including northeast China, South Korea, and Japan, and then drew a line on the Pacific Ocean: "The location of Pujiang River, if it is north, can radiate to Northeast Asia, and if it is south, it can radiate to countries around the South China Sea. The outer sea is also close to international routes, so it is not impossible for us to become a major transshipment port!"

"The riverside coastline of Chundong New District is strictly belonging to Hanoi Port..."

As he said that, Bao Feiyang came to the large map of Pujiang City again, and first reached out to click on the location of Gaoqiao Port District, and then kept paddling along the Tianjiang Waterway: "The Secretary-General also said before that the Tianjiang Waterway can be dredged and reach the conditions of a 15-meter water depth channel in ten years. But the reason why this plan was not decided is because there is a great uncertainty, that is, the changes in the hydrological conditions of Tianjiang..."

"Last year's flood in the Tianjiang River Basin told us that the current Tianjiang River is different from the Tianjiang River in the past. Due to economic development and vegetation damage, soil erosion in the middle and upper reaches of the Tianjiang River is becoming more and more serious, and the silt and sand carried in the Tianjiang River flow increased, causing the overall increase of the riverbed in the middle and lower reaches. This is the main reason why the precipitation scale of the basin did not reach once in fifty years last year, but Tianjiang River experienced a once in a century of floods..."

Bao Feiyang said: "Similarly, due to this, the sediment deposition at the estuary of Tianjiang River is not optimistic. The water surface of the estuary of Tianjiang River is wide, and the flow rate of the water flowing through Pujiang City slows down. As the amount of sediment in the water in the Tianjiang River increases, sediment can easily be deposited on the riverbed, which will increase the workload and difficulty of channel dredging. It is very likely that the results of our hard-working dredging will all be shattered overnight because of a flood!"

"When I just took office, I encountered such a thing. A sand bank that originally belonged to Huixun District actually ran to the other side after the flood last year and connected it with the river bank of Tongbei City. The people on both sides had a conflict because of the ownership of this sand bank... This shows the unpredictable changes in the hydrological changes of Tianjiangkou..."

Bao Feiyang reached out and nodded at the outer sea location at the estuary: "In contrast, if we can build a deep-water port on the sea outside the estuary, we can be free from the influence of the Tianjiang Channel!"

Guo Liguo said: "London Principal Bao, you still want to build a deep-water port in Huixun District!"

Bao Feiyang smiled, then reached out and made another big circle on the map, including Chundong New Area and Huixun District: "Secretary-General, don't worry about whether this deep-water port is from Huixun District or Chundong New Area. If this port is built, then will such a large area have the potential to become an international shipping center?"

Guo Liguo hesitated for a moment: "Are you talking about Chundong New District and Huixun District? District Mayor Bao, you suggested that the joint holding of the World Exhibition is not enough. You still want Chundong New District and Huixun District to cooperate to build the World Shipping Center?"

Guo Liguo couldn't help but feel a little funny. Huixun District had proposed an offshore deep-water port plan before, but the support obtained by this plan was limited. Firstly, it was because the offshore deep-water port plan was huge and Pujiang could not afford such a large project. Secondly, the offshore island is seventy or eighty kilometers away from the current Gaoqiao Port Area and hundreds of kilometers away from the Chunshan Port Area. This is unacceptable to Chunshan and Chundong New Areas. Of course, they do not want the status of Chunshan Port Area and Gaoqiao Port Area to decline, but they also hope that Chunshan Port Area and Gaoqiao Port Area can continue to expand.

In Guo Liguo's view, Bao Feiyang has gone around such a big circle and hopes that Chundong New Area will support the offshore deep-water port plan. He doesn't even know what to say. Before Chundong's support has received Chundong's support, Bao Feiyang has proposed another plan to cooperate in building a deep-water port. Is it to attack the east or to surround Wei and save Zhao? It's a bit unreliable no matter how you look at it.

Zhang Zehu didn't say anything, but his slightly frown was obviously a little dissatisfied.

Bao Feiyang smiled and said, "It is difficult to work together in such a thing as cooperation, but it is easy to get internal friction. It is better to merge it simply!"

Guo Liguo hadn't reacted for a while, but Zhang Zehu's eyes suddenly lit up.

Bao Feiyang knew that Zhang Zehu had already understood what he meant. He continued to reach out and nodded on the map: "At present, Chundong New District has formed Chunjiang Financial Business District, Zijiang High-tech Park, Gaoqiao Lingang Industrial Zone, and Yinqiao Export Processing Zone, and although the construction of Chundong is in full swing, the space is still large, and it looks very empty, considering the future development potential, the land of more than 500 square kilometers of Chundong may not be sufficient for some projects that require a large amount of land!"

Bao Feiyang clicked a few times on the outskirts of Chundong New District: "This place can build a university town, a science and education city, an international tourist resort, a country park, a sightseeing agriculture, and then Tianjiang tens of million-ton steel base, Chuansha Island Shipbuilding Industry Base, Lingang New City and International Shipping Center..."

"To the east of Chunjiang River and south of Tianjiang River, this large area of ​​land exceeds 1,000 square kilometers, from Chunjiang mouth to Tianjiang mouth, from Gaoqiao Port to offshore deep-water port, this pattern is enough to make Pujiang an international shipping center! It can also increase the industrial thickness of Chundong New District and optimize the ecological environment of Chundong New District..."

Guo Liguo was naturally dissatisfied with his thinking when he was able to become the chief steward of the Chundong New District Committee. He quickly realized what Bao Feiyang meant! But he seemed to be a little unbelievable: "District Director Bao, what you just said was a merger?"

The merger of Chundong New District and Huixun District is said to be a merger, but with the status of Chundong New District, it should actually be the merger of Chundong New District into Huixun District, or Huixun District is merged into Chundong New District, becoming part of Chundong New District. It is difficult for Guo Liguo to believe that Bao Feiyang, as the mayor of Huixun District, would actually come over to encourage Chundong New District to merge Huixun District.

Bao Feiyang smiled and said, "Secretary-General, what I am talking about is that the affairs of our two districts can be merged and planned together!"

"If Chundong New District wants to become the leader in national development, the pattern must be naturally developed. The development plan of Chundong New District can be considered together. For example, the construction of the International Shipping Center can be considered together. For example, the construction of the International Shipping Center can be considered together; for example, the holding of the World Exhibition can also be considered together!" Bao Feiyang said.

As the mayor of Huixun District, he is indeed not suitable to blatantly request Chundong New District to annex Huixun District. If this is spread, it will definitely make the people of Huixun District dissatisfied with their district mayor.

However, Guo Liguo still understood the meaning of Bao Feiyang's words, and asked Chundong New District to "merge" Huixun District when planning and doing things. Chundong New District is not a living** nor a Pujiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. If they want them to do this, they naturally have to merge the two districts.
