On the first day of work after the Spring Festival holiday, Sha Zhengyang went to Yang Tiancheng's office.

In the afternoon, the municipal government will have a calming meeting.

It’s all old routines, but they have to follow them, so everyone must accept them psychologically. The new year has begun again. Everyone must be nervous and prepare to get their jobs up in the beginning of the year.

Yang Tiancheng will hold a meeting of the Provincial Party Committee at half past ten, so Sha Zhengyang has to go in advance and finalize some work with Yang Tiancheng first. In the next two or three days, there may be many meetings for the two people, so there is not much time to meet, so this delay may have to be delayed until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The plan for the year lies in spring and cannot wait.

Seeing Sha Zhengyang walking in with light steps, Yang Tiancheng was a little lost for a moment, but he immediately recovered and there was no abnormality at all.

This Spring Festival is also quite meaningful to Yang Tiancheng. It may be his last Spring Festival in Zhongzhou.

Of course this is just a possibility, but he knew that since he had even known it, it means that this possibility exists, and many people have already known it. He did not believe that Sha Zhengyang knew nothing.

Of course, no matter how you know, no one will talk about these things in formal occasions. This is not in accordance with the rules. Party cadres can only follow the principles and everything has to wait for the formal organization to find out the final result.

Yang Tiancheng did not mind leaving Zhongzhou or Pingyuan. He also knew that he had been working on the Pingyuan. According to the current principles, there would be more and more cases of such exchanges in other places, and even a system would gradually form. He worked in Pingyuan Province for decades. Unless he worked in the People's Congress and the CPPCC, he would still make progress, which basically means that there would be a high possibility of leaving the plain.

However, he still felt a little regretful. He originally thought he could still work in Zhongzhou for a year and leave after a year of fruitful results in 2004, but now it seems unlikely.

Yang Tiancheng was quite relieved to hand over Zhongzhou to Sha Zhengyang. Although this comrade was young, his work experience was not bad at all, and he showed outstanding political awareness and overall view. The only thing he lacked was that the other party worked in Zhongzhou was too short. If he could give himself more time to help Sha Zhengyang get familiar with Zhongzhou better, Yang Tiancheng believed that the situation would be better.

"Zhengyang, how are you doing this Spring Festival?"

"Secretary Tiancheng, it's a nap. You know that I'm very tired this year. After these few days of rest, I've been taking a breath." Sha Zhengyang said happily: "But I went back to see the development of Handu, and had a little time with some of my old colleagues and friends, and felt more pressure. We are working hard, but they haven't rested. Handu's basic foundation is better than our Zhongzhou. Although the growth rate was not as high as us last year, it was not low. The growth rate of 18.6% of gDP ranks first among sub-provincial cities. In terms of gDP, the absolute value of gDP is also higher than that of our Zhongzhou."

"Well, this is the slow pace that leads to slow pace. Our Zhongzhou has developed a little slower from the mid-to-late 1990s to the first two years. The gap is wider now. Even if we are catching up, it will be difficult for us to catch up as long as people do not make mistakes and do not fall behind." Yang Tiancheng was still very objective, knowing the real gap between Zhongzhou and Handu: "Of course it is not entirely the reason. Some of our basic conditions are still a little worse. It is not easy to make up for it now."

After Sha Zhengyang returned this time, he realized that the gap between Zhongzhou and Handu had not narrowed because of his outstanding achievements in Zhongzhou this year, but had widened.

Although Zhongzhou has introduced many large projects this year and more than 100 companies invested in affiliated projects have been established, compared with Handu this year, it can still be seen by the naked eye.

The rapid progress of Handu High-tech Zone is amazing, especially the Internet entrepreneurship scene in the Science and Technology Innovation Park makes Sha Zhengyang feel the urge to be unable to join it.

Nowadays, Han City can be regarded as the capital of the Internet. The global Internet industry has recovered since 2003. From China to the United States, from Handu to Yanjing and Shenzhen, especially the science and technology parks of Handu High-tech Zone have become holy places for domestic Internet entrepreneurship. A large number of venture capital funds have also gathered here, and many companies that have never appeared in their previous lives have been incubated, such as the online travel giant - Xiaoyaoyou, hotel integrated discount booking - Pioneer Travel, and e-commerce companies are even more surging. Sha Zhengyang learned about Shangke boutique, which is a collection of all the products, as well as Ouya, who specializes in cosmetics in subcategories, Langlang, and so on.

If we simply say how much gDP growth this type of Internet industry has brought to Handu, it is really hard to say, but this huge attraction atmosphere brought to young entrepreneurial groups has made Handu suddenly become a fanatical place in China that was almost the first time Hainan was just opened in the 1980s. Once this atmosphere is created, Handu almost has the reputation of entrepreneurial paradise, attracting countless people to come here. This is the most important thing.

The vitality of a city means it has unpredictable potential.

Zhongzhou is still far from comparing with Han. No matter which aspect, even if it won tens of billions of investment in large projects last year, it is far from enough. When Handu was already cultivating the tertiary industry as a core industry, Zhongzhou was still thinking about consolidating the foundation of the secondary industry first before it could target the tertiary industry.

Of course, Sha Zhengyang will not underestimate himself. In the next ten years of golden development, as long as he is in Zhongzhou and can constantly adjust and guide Zhongzhou's industrial development path with his foresight, it is only a matter of time before Zhongzhou can catch up, and he has this confidence.

"I personally think that our shortcomings are not entirely in the industry. What is more scarce is the talent sector. Our shortcomings in colleges and universities and scientific research resources are too obvious. In the future, as the process of industrialization and urbanization accelerates, the role of this sector will become increasingly magnified, and the competition in this sector will be more intense in the future. Secretary Tiancheng, I think in addition to introducing university resources, we must also take the initiative to introduce more talents to our Zhongzhou schools and enterprises and institutions. Well, we can also provide more attractive conditions in some soft environments."

In fact, Yang Tiancheng knew that Sha Zhengyang's view had been mentioned to him a long time ago, and he agreed, but he thought that when the city had only so many resources, the creation of a hard environment should be given priority. One year is not enough to transform Zhongzhou. However, it seems that Sha Zhengyang was also stimulated by Handu, and felt very stressed, so he couldn't sit still.

"Zhengyang, I know you are anxious, and I am the same, but you have to consider the actual financial situation of our city." Yang Tiancheng smiled bitterly, "You are the mayor, and this burden is mainly on you. I know that some of the things you mentioned are basically invested, and everything is inseparable from money. You have to consider it. Shiqun and the Finance Army Ma Jianjun are complaining at any time when they see me, afraid that there will be some new holes. Before the New Year, you didn't come out to borrow 800 million yuan. I'm afraid that this year will not be able to pass?"

Before the Spring Festival, it was indeed the most difficult year in Zhongzhou, but this difficulty was only temporary in Sha Zhengyang's view. Zhongzhou is now engaged in infrastructure construction and has invested so much that it is inevitable to have to be in debt management. Many of them have to settle and allocate before the New Year. This is also Sha Zhengyang's promise to the districts and counties below. In the end, it really couldn't get over it. Sha Zhengyang had to come forward to borrow 800 million yuan from Dongfanghong Group and Hanhai Group, and also borrowed 1.2 billion yuan from the bank, a total of 2 billion yuan, which is considered to be the year being dealt with.

Lei Shiqun calculated that in January, the city transferred 5.6 billion yuan of funds out in less than a month. Of course, these should be paid. Some of them were backlogged, and some were temporarily turned over. In short, they should be given.

"Secretary Tiancheng, there must be difficulties, but I guess there are similarities in all places, and the degree is different. The situation in Zhongzhou last year was quite special. Well, this year may be similar to last year, and it will even be similar next year. But after these three years of high-intensity investment, I think our hardware infrastructure shortcomings will be greatly compensated." Sha Zhengyang said frankly: "So I think all this is worth it. Sometimes high debt seems a bit dangerous, but just compare the growth rate of our industrial infrastructure investment and our fiscal growth rate, it is actually not that bad."

"Haha, you, you have nothing to say, I'm just reminding you." Yang Tiancheng also smiled, "What do you think we can do in a soft environment?"

"I have considered that on the one hand, it is to cooperate with the city, including some provincial enterprises, as well as some of our public institutions, schools, hospitals, and research institutes, and encourage them to recruit high-end talents from the outside, improve their R&D and scientific research teaching capabilities, encourage more inventions and more patents. The city will provide subsidies and spiritual and material rewards based on the achievements achieved. In addition, it can also build talent apartments and senior talent buildings in terms of housing, such as housing. As long as it meets certain procedures and standards, serving enterprises and institutions in our city, it can be included in this system and used for free, and even subsidies for housing purchases in the future... For example, we can build a talent recruitment reserve plan similar to the "Yangtze River Scholars" plan,..."
