Chapter 229 Adjusting the plan
This investigation was quite satisfactory to Ji Faling, and some of his previous concerns disappeared. When he listened to the report of the Party Committee and Government of Qingshanquan Town, he praised Qingshanquan Town's current work, especially praised the practice of publicizing all village affairs in Xiaoquan Village and Jiangbian Village.
"...Comrades, this is a good way to publicize all village affairs on the wall! Why did the '3.18 Incident' happen? In the final analysis, the masses are not aware of the situation and are exploited by a small group of ulterior motives. The practices of Xiaoquan Village and Jiangbian Village are to let the masses see clearly and know clearly. Comrades, this society is developing, and the masses' sense of democracy is also constantly strengthening. If our work is still as before, and the affairs of the village are not disclosed to the masses, the masses will be kept in the dark, there will be suspicion, and they will be used by those criminals. Therefore, if we do not give the masses a clear understanding, our cadres will not be able to do it.
Bai. Even if the village cadres do not violate regulations, discipline and laws, and the village affairs are not disclosed, the masses will be suspicious, and the masses will watch the wind and petition and sue, causing the whole village to be uneasy. If the village customs are bad, how can we lead the masses to develop various undertakings? If the village customs are bad, how can we talk about the development of townships? Without a stable and harmonious environment, how can we develop in Nanqiao County? Well! The reason why I emphasize so much today is that this approach can not only achieve social stability in the countryside, but more importantly, it enhances the cohesion of grassroots party organizations and strengthens the relationship between the party and the masses, which will inevitably promote the economic development of the countryside."
As he said that, he turned his head and looked at Zeng Yiming and Li Rui respectively and said, "I think it is very necessary to push this work to a wider range. You can first pilot it in Qingshanquan Town. When the time is ripe, it will be promoted throughout the county. The county party committee office must follow up in time in this regard. This will be an important task for our Nanqiao County Committee in the next stage."
Zeng Yiming and Li Rui nodded quickly to agree.
Li Rui couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Ji Faling's sense of political smell was undoubtedly quite keen. Originally, the announcement of the village affairs on the wall was what Li Rui proposed at the beginning. There is no village affairs disclosure system nowadays. The purpose is to quickly stabilize the situation in Xiaoquan Village and Jiangbian Village. He originally planned to wait until the time is ripe before promoting it in various villages in the town. Unexpectedly, Ji Faling not only saw the benefits of this system at a glance, but also elevated it to the scope of important work of the county party committee.
The biggest advantage of openness of village affairs is that it can promote the construction of party style and clean government in rural areas and maintain rural social stability. Moreover, this measure is mainly aimed at the most basic village cadres, and there is no pressure on the ruling. If Li Rui proposed to disclose the property of officials, he would not agree to kill Ji Faling. Not to mention that this year, even in another twenty or thirty years, it will not be realized. Therefore, a good policy not only needs to be able to see the benefits, but also depends on the specific target. No one will do the slap in his mouth.
If this work can be truly promoted in Nanqiao County, it would be a heavy political achievement for Ji Faling. At this time, maybe he had not realized that its potential political impact might be far greater than his expectations.
Thinking of this, Li Rui felt a little uncomfortable. It was obviously my ingenuity, but it would be attributed to Ji Faling in the future. Alas! I am paralyzed, who said that I am a little gentle?
Secretary Ji was in a very good mood and made an exception to drink some wine at the luncheon. Li Ji Yangshengtang currently only has hot pot. It is not very good to invite the county party secretary to eat hot pot on this hot day, so the lunch was arranged at the Tianbao Hotel. In addition, a floor of the floor was specially included for the leaders to rest.
After dinner, Ji Faling called Li Rui to his resting suite. Li Rui originally wanted to find an opportunity to report to Ji Faling about the planning modification. The preliminary plan for the pilot construction of the small town in Qingshanquan Town has been released and reported to the county party committee and county government.
After a while of conversation, Ji Faling saw that Li Rui had something to report. He was in a good mood and smiled and said, "Li Rui. Just tell me if you have anything."
Li Rui sorted out his thoughts a little and said, "After thinking these days, I feel that our original plan is somewhat limited and cannot fully play the functions and roles of pilot towns across the province. It must be repositioned."
"Well, tell me what you think." Ji Faling curled his smile and pondered, as if he had also entered thinking.
"Since it is a pilot project of small towns in the province and one of the only two in Pengcheng City, I feel that first of all the strategic position, we must mention a proper height: that is the first in the city! This is the minimum goal and the basic goal. To reach this height, the development of Qingshanquan Town should not only consider the issue of Qingshanquan Town, but the issue of the whole city and the county. I think at least the strategic perspective of the whole county should be planned to plan the development of Qingshanquan Town, right?"
Ji Faling nodded in a difficult situation and said calmly: "You want to be more specific."
"From the perspective of Nanqiao County, our county is generally still an economic structure with agriculture as the main body. Although many foreign enterprises have been introduced in recent years and the proportion of coal industry is not light, the real focus of leaders at all levels is still on rural agriculture and farmers. Among the nearly one million people in the county, the urban population is less than 150,000. In other words, the urbanization rate of Nanqiao County is only 15%. It is said that our country has 1 billion people and 800 million farmers, but in terms of the current urban population ratio of our Nanqiao County, it is still far behind the national and provincial levels. Our existing townships basically do not have the function of coordinating urban and rural areas. Farmers
It is completely different concepts with urban residents. It lives two completely different lives under the same blue sky. This is the basic status quo of Nanqiao County." Li Rui was excited and couldn't help but lower his head and took a sip of water. Looking up at Ji Faling, looking forward to him continuing, and knew that as the county party secretary, he must have thought about these similar issues, and he felt more confident in his heart. He continued: "Now, Qingshanquan Town is a provincial pilot, which shows that the idea of the provincial party committee or the central government is to explore a model of integrated urban and rural development with Chinese characteristics in rural areas, such as the construction of small towns to coordinate urban and rural areas, which is my basic judgment on the pilot."
"That's right, this is what the provincial party committee means." Ji Faling nodded for sure. His eyes looked at Li Rui were full of praise.
Li Rui was also proud. As a reborn person, being able to grasp the future historical trend is his biggest weapon at present. He continued: "Open the map of our Nanqiao County, Chengguan Town and Qingshanquan Town are one south and one north, like dumbbells! I think that if the county wants to develop, keep up with the pace of national economic development, it can fully implement the dumbbell-shaped development strategy, relying on Chengguan Town and Qingshanquan Town to fully drive the economic development of Nanqiao County. Our Qingshanquan Town has this advantage and this condition. The Beijing-Taiwan Expressway will be opened to traffic next year.
. By then, it will only take half an hour to get from Qingshanquan Town to Pengcheng District. And at the beginning of this year, the country has clearly proposed to build a six-dimensional and eight-horizontal expressway. Among them, the expressway starting from Donghai City and the direct access to the west will also pass through our place and the Beijing-Taiwan Expressway, becoming a transportation hub. Therefore, compared with Chengguan Town, Qingshanquan Town has taken the lead in transportation. If the development of Qingshanquan Town is included in the other pole of economic development in the county, the two wings of Nanqiao County can fly together."
After saying that, Li Rui looked at Ji Faling eagerly. In his memory, Qingshanquan Town developed several years later, and it seemed that it was not ideal. Especially after the real estate market became popular, Chengguan Town, as a county town, has the advantage of land finance, its economic development speed and prosperity far exceed that of Qingshanquan Town. Now that he is in charge of this place. Especially after being inspired by Ma Wenjie that day, Li Rui thought about it for a long time and finally made up his mind that he would let Qingshanquan Town take the lead in its future development.
Ji Faling listened very seriously and couldn't help but leave the chair. He paced back and forth in the room. After several minutes, he stopped and said seriously: "The idea is right. Judging from the current economic output and future development speed of Qingshanquan Town, it may become the second engine of economic development in Nanqiao County. At the beginning, the county party committee agreed that the construction of Qingshanquan Town's coal chemical industry park was to follow this idea, rather than putting the park in Chengguan Town. To achieve the idea of coordinating urban and rural areas with small towns, it must be supported by industries. It is not enough to have cities alone, employment issues, sustainable development issues... etc. must rely on large-scale sustainable development of the industry. Let me tell you what you are going to do?"
Li Rui hurriedly said: "Secretary Ji, I think so: the first is to fully focus on Qingshanquan Town as a major transportation hub in Pengcheng City in the future and increase investment promotion efforts. It is not enough to have a coal chemical industrial park alone. When I was checking the relevant information, the county organized geological experts to conduct mineral inspections last year. One of them is that there are rich limestone resources on the mountains on both sides of the Pengshui River in Qingshanquan Town. Last week, I specially invited Professor Luo Jingbo from the Department of Geology of Pengcheng Institute of Technology to check it out on the spot, and the conclusions were consistent. I considered that we could fully utilize the advantages of resources to build a large cement factory on the more than 2,000 acres of river beaches in the north of Jiangbian Village..."
"Well, the idea is good. The county economic and trade committee had this consideration last year on the idea of introducing large cement plants, but it was very difficult to attract investment. Still, interested investors have been found." Ji Faling interrupted.
Li Rui smiled slightly and said, "I think as long as we plant the sycamore tree, we will naturally attract the phoenix. Secretary Ji, our advantage lies in the first place, the resources are quite rich. Professor Luo also collected some samples and went back to us. At that time, we can provide us with an authoritative test report. Second, our Qingshanquan Town is very developed in land and water transportation, especially relying on the water transportation advantages of the Pengshui River and the Grand Canal, we can reach the Beijing-Tianjin area from the north, go south and go directly to Jiangdong Province, or go directly to the sea entrance of Donghai City along the Pengshui River. This range will be even wider and can cover it.
The entire coastal area of our country; the third is the advantage of land prices. That area is originally a river beach, and there is no cost of demolition and encroachment of farmland. As long as a dam is built along the river, all these more than 2,000 acres can be encircled. Such a large area is equivalent to the size of an industrial park, and the actual land cost is less than half of the industrial park. We can refer to the industrial park model to carry out three-way and one leveling. If necessary, we can also build a high-grade highway to the town. With such prerequisites, I think there will definitely be someone willing to come to us to invest and build a factory."
"Well, it's good, I have ideas and more solutions. I feel confident when I hear you say this, so I will continue to say it." Ji Faling said with a smile.
"According to the original plan, a piece of land was reserved on the west side of the town. It was originally planned to be used as a reserved industrial base and develop other industrial projects in addition to the coal chemical industry park. My current idea is to focus on the town, the north is a coal chemical industry park, the east is a cement plant project, and the west introduces projects that can consume a lot of human resources, forming a three-star companion trend, and use industries to support the development of Qingshanquan Town. If these projects can be implemented smoothly, the urban population of Qingshanquan Town will increase ten times more than now, and while attracting investment and vigorously developing industries, we must also create a high-quality human settlement environment, integrating consumption, shopping, entertainment, and industrial agglomeration, treat the town as a city, and continuously improve urban functions. In addition, in rural areas, through the construction of new villages and relying on projects, we will finally achieve integrated urban and rural development."
As he said that, Li Rui saw Ji Faling frowning and thinking, as if he had not digested what he had just said, he quickly explained: "Simply put, it is to strengthen urban transformation and enhance the radiation and aggregation capabilities of the town. In the vast rural areas, accelerate the construction of roads, elderly care, medical care, schools and other hardware. Villages with conditions can implement unified planning of rural housing, concentrate housing, and the government increases the investment and construction of public facilities, so as to achieve resource sharing. The biggest benefit of this is that farmers can fully enjoy the same government benefits as those in the city without entering the city. Civil rights are equalized. The special situation in our country cannot allow all farmers to flock to the city. The city cannot accommodate so many people, and will sooner or later digest them in the countryside, so that rural urbanization can be achieved."
"Where do you think about it? Even if you can introduce cement plants, the industrial base reserved in the west can form a new industrial scale, but this will take time after all. To achieve what you said to achieve rural urbanization, it is an astronomical figure." Ji Faling said in his words.
Li Rui smiled slightly. He had a solution to this point, and there was only one way, that is, the land finance that emerged in various places seven or eight years later. Moreover, as the proportion of real estate in the national economy became higher and higher, this land finance was undoubtedly a killer for local governments to use urban development. It lasted for a long time. Until twenty years later, land kings in various places were still emerging one after another. But although everyone later shouted that housing prices were too high and they could not afford to buy them, it has to be admitted that it was precisely because of the emergence of this land finance that urban construction in various places had rapid development. Of course, everything has its two sides. When it develops to a certain extent, various problems and contradictions will inevitably arise, but these are things in the future. For Qingshanquan Town, borrowing land to make money is undoubtedly the best way.
So when Ji Faling asked, he replied calmly: "The source of funds is one thing: borrowing land to make money. Adjust the overall urban planning of Qingshanquan Town. Based on the original planned town area of six horizontal and nine vertical lines, I want to focus on the transformation of Xiaoqing River flowing through the town to expand the urban planning area on both sides of the straits. The current planned area is eight square kilometers. I think the adjusted new plan can reach 12 to 15 square kilometers. The two sides of Xiaoqing River are engaged in land development, building real estate, land income and taxes, etc., in addition to being used for urban functional construction, there is also a part that can be used to feed the countryside. If you strive for the rural construction funds from the superiors, plus the villagers' investment in labor, planning and implementation in stages and batches, you can gradually achieve a comprehensive well-off countryside."
Ji Faling's eyes lit up when he heard it. His term of office was only about one year. He left his voice and left his name. In addition to the coal chemical industry park, he also wanted to leave something. The pilot project of the small town construction in Qingshanquan Town is obviously another opportunity, but how to seize this opportunity, he has never had a complete and realistic idea. After hearing Li Rui's words, he suddenly realized and nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, it is not easy for you to have such an idea in just a few months! Regarding the coordinated urban-rural development of our country, this may be the central leadership.
The question you are thinking about! Our country is too big, the situation is complex, and the development of various places is unbalanced. Multiple models should be allowed to achieve urban-rural integration. The question you asked has not been studied yet. Our county party committee has advanced ideas. Can we do this? How to do it? I cannot give you a clear answer now. It depends on what new spirit the whole municipal party committee will have this time. If the municipal party committee has such a trend, you can boldly start it in Qingshanquan Town first. As for the reform, the old man said, "Cross the river by feeling the stones". This is unprecedented. There is nothing to learn from, so you have to reform and innovate."
Ji Faling became more and more excited as he spoke. He ordered Li Rui: "You go back and make a plan, it doesn't matter at all. The key is to sort out the clues. I will first ask Secretary Gao to report. The full committee will end. Our county party committee standing committee will conduct a specific research and discussion on this issue. You can use this period to develop a specific thing, the more specific the better. Some projects can be listed and a report will be made at the Standing Committee."
Ji Faling now looks more and more pleasing to Li Rui. When Li Rui first came to Nanqiao, Ji Faling still looked at him a little disliked. He dared to bare his teeth with Yang Liqing on the first day of his arrival, but he had Guo Wending as his backer. It was not until Ji Jie told him that Li Rui was Gao Jie's boyfriend, and Ji Faling began to pay attention to him. Later, Li Rui risked his life to go down the well to save people. He also made a big move on the issue of safety production in coal mines in the county when he was in charge of the work of the Coal Management Bureau, eliminating many hidden dangers.
In the past six months, there has been no casualties in more than 80 coal mines in the county, which has never happened in the history of Nanqiao County. Later, he took on the heavy responsibility in times of crisis. In just three months, he eliminated the bad impact of the '3.18 incident', and proposed a very forward-looking and constructive rural reform measure for village affairs disclosure. Now he has put forward such a wonderful idea for the construction of a small town in Qingshanquan Town, so he is not unhappy.
Li Rui was originally worried that Ji Faling might object. Borrowing money from land is a new thing in this year. Some people are conservative and timid and dare not try it. Unexpectedly, he agreed readily and was very happy. He asked: "Secretary Ji, the issue of adjusting the planning..."
Ji Faling waved his hand and said, "Transfer! You told Chen Shiwei that I said it, and I agree to your transfer. In addition, the Construction Committee has set up a construction branch here, so you asked him to send all the most capable people in the Construction Committee to re-plan."
After saying that, he looked at Li Rui and smiled and said, "Lu Chuan, if you do this, the urban area of Qingshanquan Town has exceeded that of the county town. This may be very rare in the country. By then, it will not be dumbbells, but two fists, one big and one small. In a few years, someone will probably suggest relocating the county party committee and county government! Hahaha..."
Ji Faling laughed happily. At this time, he felt very proud. The proud part was that he had an inadvertent eye to recognize talents. Putting aside the idea of open village affairs, it was Qingshanquan Town, as a pilot project for the construction of small towns. If he could continue according to the plan adjusted by Li Rui, he might have a position in the municipal leadership team when the term was changed next year.
Ji Faling's laughter continued to reach the door. When Li Rui walked out of the room, Wang Yougen's eyes looked at him were a little different than before. Although Wang Yougen had always been very polite to him before, Li Rui could still see from his words and deeds that Wang Yougen had more or less flattering to him.
Power! This is the charm of power. At this moment, Li Rui suddenly realized that he seemed to be more and more adaptable to and like this kind of life in the officialdom.
People often say: To be an official for thousands of miles is only for wealth. In fact, another reason is the desire to control power. With power, you can control a certain amount of people, money and property, and you can control these people, money and property to achieve a certain plan or achieve a certain purpose according to your own wishes, satisfying people's desire to dominate. Just like now, he can change the development plan of Qingshanquan Town according to his own ideas, which will change the future development trajectory of Qingshanquan Town.
Although this desire is in line with the greed of money, Li Rui feels that what he needs is this desire. In his previous life, he was busy satisfying his desire for money and women, but now he feels that this desire for control and dominance is stronger. He sighed in his heart: Maybe this is why the eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty took their desire for power to the extreme after losing their original desire for women, and saw others struggling and surviving under the flying wand of their power, thus obtaining a psychological compensation satisfaction.
Similarly, this theory can explain why some people in the current officialdom who are not talented and unacceptable can be busy with their leaders without any grudges or compensation. This so-called realization of life value is actually a hidden psychological satisfaction of dependence and worshipping power, because sometimes he knows that the work commanded by the leader is useless to him and harms other people, things, and things, but he will enjoy it. On the surface, it is "a scholar who dies for his confidant", but it is actually a manifestation of the slavery of power.
Chapter completed!
