The Lotus Festival is a major event in Jingcheng City every year. The Lotus Festival culture sets the stage and the economy plays the show. The industrial and agricultural products of the nine counties, one city and two districts of Jingcheng City will be displayed at the Lotus Festival exhibition. At that time, Chinese and foreign merchants gather to discuss trade and investment.

However, Jingcheng is a plain area with no special mineral resources. It is located on the eastern edge of the mainland. It is a collapsed area of ​​the coastal economy. There are no special industrial products. There are some agricultural products, but the transportation requirements for agricultural products are very high. However, Jingcheng's transportation is not well developed and its location is relatively remote. Therefore, compared with investment promotion conferences in other cities, the Lotus Festival in Jingcheng is not lukewarm. It is a big deal in the city, but it is nothing compared with other places.

But for the counties in Jingcheng City, this is another rare opportunity. Otherwise, if they want to hold an investment promotion conference on their own, it will be difficult to attract investors from all over the world. Investment promotion conferences held in other places will not be allowed to participate. If you can't grab a limited investment, how can you allow others to come and grab food?

Therefore, all counties are full of energy and want to talk about several more projects at the Lotus Festival. The team leaders are basically the county magistrates, at least the executive deputy county magistrates.

The delegation of Wanghai County was led by Zheng Yue, executive deputy county magistrate, and Bao Feiyang also went there. The overall specifications were similar to those in previous years, and were worse than those of other counties, especially Luming and Xixi.

The day before the opening of the Cultural Festival, Zheng Yue and Bao Feiyang rushed to the city and were in advance. Liu Ning, director of the county investment and promotion bureau who had already led the staff to make preparations in advance, handed over a document: "County Magistrate Zheng, County Mayor Bao, this is the final schedule of the Lotus Festival. Only one seafood processing in our county has entered the list of key recommendations for the city's economic and trade negotiations."

Zheng Yue and Bao Feiyang looked at each other. The schedule of the cultural festival, especially the most important economic and trade negotiation meeting, had already been issued. After many revisions, they were already prepared for similar situations, but the final arrangement still surprised them. The city canceled the port construction, shipping, tidal flat breeding, papermaking and other projects submitted by Wanghai County, leaving only a single seafood processing that was like a useless. It seems that it is planned to suppress Wanghai County to the end.

Of course, there are legitimate reasons for this arrangement in the city. Because there are only 20 to 30 investment projects that can be recommended at the economic and trade negotiation meeting. The city can give a lot of standards to which one is above and below. The result of too many standards is that no project can meet all standards. In the end, how to choose becomes the leader's subjective decision.

Bao Feiyang took the schedule and flipped it casually: "One is the other one. We have not taken key projects. We can also promote and negotiate with investors."

That being said, however, Zheng Yue and Liu Ning both knew that the difference between whether they could be recommended by key projects is still very different. After attending key projects, basically all merchants who come to participate in economic and trade negotiations or even participate in the Lotus Festival will see it. If they cannot attend, they must go through other channels, which is undoubtedly much more difficult.

Liu Ning said with a wry smile: "The county booth is the same as last year, and it is still in the innermost area and is very small. I am afraid that there will be fewer people going there by then."

Bao Feiyang smiled and patted Liu Ning's arm: "It doesn't matter, how much is the amount of the project signed at the Lotus Festival last year? How many are the real negotiations at the Lotus Festival? What is the actual investment amount? How big is the stage of the Lotus Festival, just try your best."

During the Cultural Festival, hotels in the city were relatively tense, and the city also asked all counties and cities to find other ways to give mid-to-high-end hotels to merchants who came from afar. Wanghai County contacted the Municipal Construction Engineering School and booked more than a dozen rooms in the school guesthouse. The conditions were a bit simple, but they were still neat.

Zheng Yue and Bao Feiyang also had no intention of using this last moment to walk around the city. They went directly to the exhibition site to see the arrangement of the booth and arrange tomorrow's display work.

"Ye, isn't this County Mayor Zheng? Wanghai County is going to make a big splash this year. The investment amount of Fangxia Paper Project is 100 million, right? Just this project will exceed the total amount of the previous two years. It will definitely not be at the bottom this time." Zhou Dachun, executive deputy county magistrate of Wanghe County, walked over surrounded by several cadres. When he saw Zheng Yue, he immediately smiled and said loudly.

Wanghe County is located south of Bincheng County, east of Yanghu County, and north of Fenghai County. It is traditionally believed that Wanghe County, Yanghu County and Fenghai County are the central areas of Jingcheng City. To the south are Yanhai District and Tinghai District, then Luming County, Xixi City, Xixi City and Tongcheng City are adjacent to Jingcheng City. It is also the most developed county-level city in Jingcheng City's county economy.

Zheng Yue's face darkened. People who didn't understand the inside story thought he was praising Zhou Dachun when he heard Zhou Dachun's words, but Zheng Yue knew that Zhou Dachun was not so kind. When he was studying at the Municipal Party School, the two competed for the class monitor, but Zheng Yue won, and he formed a gangster from then on. Zhou Dachun was a vengeful person, and Zheng Yue didn't believe that he would say good things about Wanghai County.

Zheng Yue said lightly: "Everyone knows that the results of attracting investment at the Lotus Festival every year are the last ones. Although there is a Fangxia Paper project this year, it has been confirmed long ago. If you can sign one or two small projects at this Lotus Festival, you will be satisfied, and you will not be as wealthy as Wanghe County."

Zhou Dachun's eyes turned: "Haha, County Magistrate Zheng's words must be put before. I believe it, but I don't believe it now. Your new County Magistrate Bao is an expert in attracting investment! This should be County Magistrate Bao, right?"

Bao Feiyang stretched out his palm and looked at Zhou Dachun calmly: "I am Bao Feiyang, Hello County Mayor Zhou."

"Sure enough, County Magistrate Bao is indeed young and promising. If it weren't for County Magistrate Bao, your temperament was outstanding, just looking at age, you would have to think that you were County Magistrate Zheng's secretary. Wanghai County has you, it is their blessing!" Zhou Dachun smiled. At first, he did think that Bao Feiyang was Zheng Yue's secretary, but looking at the location of the two people and Bao Feiyang's expression, he didn't look like a superior or subordinate. In addition, Bao Feiyang was less than twenty-five years old and was already the deputy county magistrate of Wanghai County. This incident was widely talked about in the city, so he guessed his identity.

Bao Feiyang smiled: "Mr. Zhou was joking. I should be lucky to be able to work in Wanghai County and have a leader like Magistrate Zheng."

"Hehe, County Magistrate Bao, you are so humble. Now no one knows that when County Magistrate Bao comes, they immediately turned into a phoenix in Wanghai County, and immediately introduced a project that is rare in the city. Who wouldn't say that Wanghai County is lucky? If County Magistrate Bao is willing to come to Wanghe, you will be the position of the executive deputy county magistrate in the county." Zhou Dachun said and looked at Zheng Yue with a smile.

Bao Feiyang also saw that the relationship between Zhou Dachun and Zheng Yue did not seem to be so harmonious. Zhou Dachun was like digging a hole for himself. If he didn't answer well, Zheng Yue would inevitably have no grudges if he was a little less arrogant.

He smiled and shook his head: "That's not possible. Everyone knows that I am young and have many shortcomings. It's okay to do projects and attract investment. I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to handle all the work. If County Magistrate Zheng hadn't handled all the daily things properly, I would probably not be able to do a project."

Zhou Dachun smiled. He came over to mock Zheng Yue, the enemy he had back then, and to establish a good relationship with Bao Feiyang, the youngest deputy county magistrate in the city, who may even be the youngest deputy county magistrate in the province. Now Bao Feiyang is obviously a little protective of Zheng Yue, so of course he would not offend Bao Feiyang.

Zhou Dachun looked at the booth in Haixian County, picked up the promotional materials placed on the table and looked at it, and said in surprise: "Hey, your county has prepared a lot of projects this year. Is this port construction? Are you really planning to expand the Chengang port port?"

Zheng Yue nodded and said lightly: "Of course, our Chen Port is not an ordinary small fishing port. It is a good port with deep water channel and a 100,000-ton deep water terminal. We have always had this plan, but it is just a lack of investment."

The economic situation of Wanghe County is better than that of Wanghai County. Of course, some aspects are similar. For example, Wanghe County also has a port, but like Chen Port, the tonnage is small and the throughput is insufficient. Moreover, the waterway conditions of Wanghe Port are not as good as Chen Port.

Zhou Dachun laughed dryly: "The conditions for Chen Port are good, but you are too close to Haizhou Port, and land transportation is not good. I guess the province and the city will not support you in building this port."

Zheng Yue's face darkened, and Zhou Dachun really said that their biggest problem now is the lack of support from the above.

Zhou Dachun turned to the end and saw a special paper product industrial park investment project manual, and couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly: "Paper product industrial park? Did the city agree to you to build a paper product industrial park? This is a great thing! Didn't you say you want to do it in Yanhai or Luming?"

Zheng Yue's face became even more ugly. Zhou Dachun was just holding any pot without opening any pot. For this matter, the city wanted to change the entire Wanghai County team. How could it be possible for them to build the paper product industrial park?

Bao Feiyang said: "This paper product industrial park is actually Fangxia Paper Industrial Base, but for the sake of publicity, we have changed it to this name."

If Wanghai County wants to build a paper product industrial park now, the city will definitely not agree, so the statement to the city is Fangxia Paper's industrial base. This base is approved by the city, and it is hard to say anything. However, when it is publicized, it still uses the name of the industrial park. This method is actually very common. In recent years, many of the industrial parks and development zones have not received approval documents, but it does not affect their existence.
