Chapter 991 Huaxi Market

(Please give me a monthly ticket for the first update of 6,700 words)

Chen Huai accompanied Li Gu to Beitang District, mainly inspecting the renovation of the old city and the relocation of factories and enterprises.

Xucheng developed in the early days after the founding of the People's Republic of China, but the city's scale would have grown to such a large scale. Many factories originally built on the periphery of the city were gradually surrounded by residential areas.

A considerable number of these residential areas are employee dormitories, public housing, and fundraising housing, commercial housing, etc. that were successively built by enterprises in the 1980s to improve employee housing conditions. The environment of fundraising housing and commercial housing communities is now quite good. In the 1950s and 1960s, large-scale construction began to be used as tube buildings for staff dormitories and residential buildings. The conditions are only sloppy, while the conditions are quite harsh in the 1950s and 1960s.

In addition, in the early urban construction, environmental governance was insufficient. Many enterprises and domestic wastewater were directly discharged without treatment, which made the city and rivers dirty, and when they approached, they could smell strange and odor. It could not be considered a good living environment.

Although Xiong Wenbin proposed a new scale of urban construction and development, the municipal party committee, municipal government and the province would build Xucheng into an internationally first-class super-large city, the actual situation of Xucheng is quite unoptimistic.

The renovation of old cities involves all aspects. The first step is to move industrial enterprises that are not suitable for development in the urban area to external industrial parks.

Relocation of the factory is a good thing. It is not only conducive to urban transformation, but also to the company's own industrial and technological upgrading. The key issue is that it requires a large amount of capital investment. Meigang invested 1 billion yuan to build a new refining base in Zhunan Industrial Park, which is why the old refinery that seriously affects the environment on the north bank of the Zhujiang River will be demolished and built a riverside business district.

To move out nearly 200 industrial enterprises under the jurisdiction of Huaihai Province and Xucheng City that are not suitable for development in Xucheng City, even if industrial technology upgrades are not considered, two or three billion yuan will be invested - replacing the land, and developing and construction also requires a large amount of start-up capital.

Although the finances in the province and Xucheng City are much better than in previous years, there is still no need to say that they are well-off. How to better combine enterprise restructuring, industrial transfer and other work with urban construction is a problem that Chen Huai has focused on discussing and exploring and solving during this period.

Xucheng has thirteen districts and counties, four counties far away from the main urban area, and two suburbs are not mentioned. Currently, the focus is on developing five districts and two new districts. Among them, Jingu District, located in the center of the old city, is located in the new street business district. The land replaced is valuable, and the replaced land is also a priority for the city to start the old city renovation area. Qinjiang District has also started the construction of a riverside business district. The construction of the urban new district with Pengyue Modern City as the core is larger, but the movement of urban areas such as Beitang is much slower due to conditions.

Speaking of conditions and restrictions, the old state-owned enterprise clusters such as Beitang lack commercial areas with climate-forming commercial areas. The benefits of state-owned enterprises have declined year by year, profits and taxes have dropped sharply, and district-level finances are weak and weak. It is not the focus of transformation investment in the city, so it is naturally hard to talk about urban construction.

Accompanied by Zhang Yian, Secretary of the Beitang District Party Committee, Zhou Weimin, Deputy Secretary, and Ma Tianbo, Secretary of the Party Group and General Manager of the Provincial Textile Group, Chen Huai and Li Gu chose a residential area for employees in the factory of the Provincial Textile Group to learn about the situation.

The convoy parked outside the alley. The street was quite high, and it looked like a low shanty town. It was not an exaggeration to say it was a slum. Walking into the alley, the narrow alley was paved with blue bricks and potholes. The children playing in the alley, watching so many people running over, as if frightened groups of birds flew back to the yards of each house and looked out.

The walls are high and the courtyard is deep. From the outside, I see the large courtyard. When I walk in, I see that each family has sheds in the houses, which squeezes the huge courtyard so that only a few narrow passages are left.

Chen Huai and Li Gu both selected local areas for inspection. Beitang District and the Provincial Textile Group were unable to make any preparations in advance. They picked them into the yard and crossed the threshold and walked in. The yard was crisscrossed with many clotheslines, and all of them were covered with clothes.

I don’t know where the wind blew over, and a pair of white cotton wool pants were blowing, wrapping the head and face of the chairman of the Provincial Textile Group Trade Union who was carrying Chen Huai, Li Gu and others on their backs.

A group of people couldn't laugh even if they wanted to laugh, they just kept it there.

Chen Huai saw the corners of the corridor full of honeycomb coal, firewood and other debris. Several children hid behind their doors and looked at the yard curiously; there were several adults playing chess in the yard and recognizing the newly appointed mayor of Xu City Li Gulai.

I picked a family that was an employee of the Provincial Textile Group, and Chen Huai and Li Gu walked in.

It was not dark at this time, and the sunset was hanging high in the west sky, but the lights were turned on in the house, making people feel dim. In the small living room and dining room room, there was a dunk on the square table placed against the wall, covering the leftover food for lunch, and there was not much room left to stand.

The room was too narrow, Chen Huai and Li Gu pulled a bench and sat down, and started chatting with the owner of the household. An official from the Provincial Textile Group wanted to squeeze in, but he didn't pay attention to his forehead hitting the door lintel with a "bang" and frowned in pain. Chen Huai waved his hand and said, "You are waiting outside, don't squeeze in..."

When asked about the living conditions of the head of the household, Chen Huai raised his hand and uncovered the dunk on the table. He saw two bowls inside, one porcelain basin, a few slices of pickled radish in one bowl, half a bowl of fried vegetables left in one bowl, and half a pot of rice in the porcelain basin, and one can imagine what the family eats for lunch.

Chen Huai and Li Gu didn't say anything. After finishing the visit, they left the alley and got back into the car. Chen Huai took out a cigarette, distributed one for Li Gu, lit the cigarette and said:

"The living standards of poor workers' families in Xu City are typical examples of these families."

"The Provincial Textile Group wants to carry out reform and reduce staff and increase efficiency, and a group of people will also arrange for transfers." Li Gu said.

"If you change, you can make a living; if you don't change, you will be dragged to death half-dead," Chen Huai said while smoking, "The subsidy standard may be appropriately increased, and what you can do now is that."

At this moment, Zhou Weimin, deputy secretary of the Beitang District Party Committee, walked over from behind and said through the car window:

"Mayor Li, Director Chen, Mr. Ye of Huaineng Group, and Mr. Xie of Jinding happened to be in Beitang today. Do you want everyone to have a meal in Beitang tonight?"

Beitang District Party Secretary Zhang Yian had something to do in his hometown. After accompanying him, he had to leave Xucheng directly. The work of arranging a reception dinner naturally fell on Zhou Weimin. Of course, the more important reason is that Zhang Yian has been 60 years old this year, and is a person who is directly retired. He is also a person assigned by former mayor Zhou Renjun, so he naturally no longer tries his best to please the new mayor.

Giving the opportunity to Zhou Weimin also made him look generous and polite.

Li Gu glanced at Chen Huai and asked for his opinion.

He thought to himself: Chen Huai supports Wei Nanhui to suppress Song Hongqi in the cooperation between Huaihai Bay, which is considered to be a vent within the Song Dynasty, but the long-term division actually caused more harm to Song Qiaosheng and his team, and they have no choice but to use Chen Huai as a hard bone. It is estimated that the internal relationship between the Song Dynasty will be bridged and repaired. Ye Xuanfeng and Xie Chengjiang agreed that Zhou Weimin would match them to a dinner party at this time?

"I'm going to talk to Zhou Weimin tonight. Do you have any arrangements for you tonight?" Chen Huai asked Li Gu.

Zhou Weimin didn't know what Chen Huai was going to talk to him, but no matter what Chen Huai talked to him, it was a hundred times better than not talking to him. He immediately looked at Li Gu with a more anticipated look.

"Then I'll stay here for a meal tonight," Li Gu didn't know what Chen Huai had to find Zhou Weimin, so he promised to stay for dinner. He thought to Zhang Yian to retreat, and the top leader of the party and government in Beitang District always wanted to win over someone. He had a good evaluation of Zhou Weimin in all aspects. Moreover, although Zhou Weimin also had the idea of ​​engaging in the career, his resume was not that complicated, and he was willing to contact Zhou Weimin more with Chen Huai. He ordered, "I'll arrange for your district government canteen tonight, it's simpler..."

Chen Huai followed Xu Jian behind Zhou Weimin and said, "Tell me to Secretary Ma, and the Provincial Textile Group will leave two people to have dinner."

It would be enough to go to the Beitang District government canteen to have two tables together. Chen Huai didn't like to make up five or six tables of wine, so nothing could be done. Li Gu was accompanied by the secretary-general of the municipal government and his secretary. He asked the Provincial Textile Group to leave two or three people to accompany him. Zhou Weimin should know how many tables of wine to arrange.

It was not too early, so Chen Huai and Li Gu rushed directly to the Beitang District Government.

Chen Huai and Li Gu arrived by car, Ye Xuanfeng and Xie Chengjiang were already waiting in front of the Beitang District Government Logistics Building.

It is said to be a canteen, but the logistics building has a complete range of small and small private rooms, and it is also a top chef. The ingredients and wine will not be bad. The biggest advantage is that the canteen is run by the government. Using the best high-end ingredients and wine is much cheaper than star-rated hotels, and there is less criticism of eating and drinking.

The two waiters in the private room were also beautiful and skillful, and it seemed that they had received professional training from high-end hotels to guide everyone to take their seats.

Guo Ting's brother-in-law, the fat man I met in Shangxiyuan last time, Zhang Dehua, the head of the Beitang District Government Logistics Management Center, said hello to Chen Huai with a smile on his face: "Secretary Chen, do you still remember me? What dishes do you and Mayor Li like to eat? Today I cook for you..."

Chen Huai and Li Gu, Ye Xuanfeng introduced Zhang Dehua and said, "He is Guo Ting's brother-in-law and Deputy Secretary Zhou's beloved general."

"This Zhang Dehua is so slick and has no strong mouth, but he just cooks good food and is worthy of praise." Zhou Weimin said with a smile, not wanting to bring Zhang Dehua's relationship with him much closer.

Ye Xuanfeng seemed to be not familiar with the name Guo Ting, and asked Chen Huai: "Guo Ting? Is that person you want to be responsible for Yuanye Automobile Industry Group?"

"Yes, he just passed the internal review of the State-owned Assets Office two days ago," Chen Huai nodded and said, "but the final decision-making power of personnel is not in the State-owned Assets Office."

Before the State-owned Assets Office was established, the State-owned Enterprise Working Committee had limited power and only recommended the state-owned enterprise management, and even lacked the power to assess and review. After the establishment of the State-owned Assets Leading Group and the State-owned Assets Office, the jurisdiction over provincial enterprises was greatly strengthened.

At present, in addition to the discipline inspection work being under the responsibility of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, the State-owned Assets Leading Group and the State-owned Assets Office dual leading group can almost determine all matters in the state-owned assets system, including personnel, restructuring, etc.

The personnel decision-making power that Chen Huai said was not in the State-owned Assets Office. In fact, as long as Xu Pei nodded, this unknown Guo Ting would directly take charge of the division of Yuanye Automobile Industry Group.

"The passenger car department has been integrated into the Dongshi Group. The remaining commercial vehicles, especially medium-sized buses, are still somewhat fundamental. You recommend Guo Ting to be responsible for the automobile savings. Many people are quite surprised. People have asked me for who Guo Ting is in the past two days," said Ye Xuanfeng. "I know that you have always been imaginative in Donghua, but they have been effective frequently. What kind of ability does this Guo Ting have to make you fall in love with? You probably won't wait until he achieves some results before revealing this mystery?"

Xie Chengjiang knew that Ye Xuanfeng asked so much and had the intention to take the initiative to repair the relationship, but he didn't know if Chen Huai would appreciate it.

"I want to pretend to be mysterious. The State-owned Assets Office, Secretary Jiang and Director Ding and others also participated in the review," Chen Huai patiently explained to Ye Xuanfeng why he fell in love with Guo Ting alone, and said with a smile, "Guo Ting left Guan Automobile only at the end of 1998. He was previously responsible for the technical departments of commercial vehicles and cars at Guan Automobile, and his professionalism and leadership skills have long been recognized. Pu Cheng asked Guo Ting to take charge of the car project in the past few years, and the reason why I recommended Guo Ting actually started with the differences in the development routes of Guan Automobile in the past 1980s. Guan Automobile had a certain foundation in the mid-sized bus market and production. In the mid-to-earth 190s, overseas bus companies entered the Chinese market through joint ventures or technical cooperation, and Shenghua also wanted to seize this opportunity. During the cooperation negotiations, serious differences arose within Shenghua. Guo Ting was the representative of Shenghua's advocated adhering to the bottom line of technical cooperation, emphasizing technical digestion, and promoting the independent production of major components. Although Guo Ting's proposal was not realized, Shenghua later focused on introducing car production lines, and his performance in the car department was greatly reduced. Guo Ting was ordered to preside over the car technical department and was unable to turn the tide, but I still felt that in the future development direction of the bus products in Yuanye, we can try to follow his ideas..."

Chen Huai's patient explanation is not to say that he inherited Ye Xuanfeng's face. Liu Jizhou has been in charge of Dongshi Automobile Factory for nearly ten years, forming a complete and efficient team that he used as an arm to control the finger. It would not be too difficult to take over the integration of Yuanye passenger car department. However, Guo Ting Yuanye Automobile Industry Group is only at the deputy director, and it will take one and a half years to leave Yuanye Automobile. Although Chen Huai will transfer Zhou Danian, Qi Jiancheng and others from Yuanye, most of the young and strong middle-level managers will be left to Guo Ting to choose the best.

When Guo Ting returned to the wilderness, he had to establish authority and implement the idea of ​​promoting his development of the new wilderness. Chen Huai needed more support from the outside. At the same time, Chen Huai also needed Jiang Yibin, Ding Jianguo and even Xu Pei to have some confidence in Guo Ting, so the necessary explanations must be given.

After Ye Xuanfeng has been dealing with Chen Huai for so many years, he naturally knows that his uniqueness in employing people, which is also one of the foundations for Mei Gang to develop and rise.

At this time, he could hear Chen Huai's detailed explanation, and suddenly he had an illusion that Chen Huai might be a very gentle person, but seeing Li Gu, Zhou Weimin and others who were here thought about it, they realized that Chen Huai's greater intention was to create momentum for Guo Ting, so that others could understand that Guo Ting had long formed a development mindset with his personal characteristics in the automobile industry.

Seeing that Chen Huai was talking nonsense today, Xie Chengjiang took this opportunity to ask: "I heard that the Provincial State-owned Assets Office is about to establish a new real estate development group recently, and plans to develop and build more than tens of thousands of acres of commercial and residential construction in Xucheng in the next three to five years - is this news true?"

"Your news is quite informative. It's only discussed within the Provincial State-owned Assets Office, but Mayor Li may not know it."

"My news is not that blocked. Cheng Jiang doesn't ask this question, I want to talk to you about it." Li Gu said with a smile. He was qualified to know the secrets when he could sit at this table, so he wanted Chen Huai to talk about his thoughts in detail.

"I hope that now it's just my heart that this is what I hope. Can it be achieved? Two things," Chen Huai smiled. He wants to implement his plan, so he naturally has to widely convince more people to support and participate in the process, so that he can succeed. "I hope that the Provincial State-owned Assets Office will establish a wholly state-owned real estate group. In the next five years, it can work with the Provincial Construction Engineering Group to develop more than 6 million square meters of urban construction, including residential, emerging industries, office, commercial, etc. for Xucheng construction..."

"Six million square meters?" Li Gu has been trying to talk about something quite a bit in the past two days, but when he heard him say this number, he was stunned for a while and said, "In recent years, the urban construction of Xucheng has been accelerating, but the urban area was less than 1.5 million square meters last year. As you expect, the provincial State-owned Assets Office established such a real estate group in the next five years, an average of 1.2 million square meters of new buildings will be developed every year. Rongxin, Zhujiang Construction and other large real estate developers will also develop 1.2 million square meters of residential, commercial and office buildings every year, and then add up other small and medium-sized real estate developers. The urban construction speed of Xucheng is probably more than three times that of the past..."

Xie Chengjiang heard Ye Xuanfeng say at the construction site in the afternoon that Shen Huai wanted to form a provincial real estate group and put all the land after the relocation of the provincial state-owned enterprise factory area into this real estate group. He speculated that the scale would not be small, but he did not expect that Chen Huai's tiger mouth would be so big. Pengyue Modern City and Rongxin's New World Plaza, two super-large comprehensive development real estate projects, the total construction area of ​​two super-large comprehensive development real estate projects is about 1.6 million square meters, which will be fully developed within about five years. Chen Huai wants to form this provincial state-owned real estate group. The development in Xucheng will be four times that of Pengyue Modern City and New World Plaza in five years.

The supply suddenly increased so much. Xie Chengjiang couldn't imagine how Rongxin Hu Lin and Luo Xiaotian would curse her, and he couldn't imagine how Chen Huai was convinced to be so opposed inside Meigang?

Suddenly increasing the supply so much will also seriously weaken the sales of Pengyue Modern City.

Xie Chengjiang didn't know whether the focus of Jinding Real Estate's future development will be transferred from Xucheng. He just knew how difficult it would be for outsiders to change Chen Huai's mind.

Chen Huai looked at the expressions on Xie Chengjiang and Ye Xuanfeng on his face, but he smiled and explained to Li Gu, saying:

"You also saw that the housing conditions of most citizens in Xucheng are not much looser than what we see today. Now the Xucheng District has a population of 3 million, with a total residential area of ​​less than 35 million square meters and a per capita residential area of ​​less than 12 square meters. In the future, Xucheng will develop into a megacity of more than 5 million people, and the per capita residential area will be doubled. This means that Xucheng's residential area alone has a gap of 85 million square meters. The province has established a real estate group to improve employee housing, including office buildings, emerging industries and development of housing, and comprehensive commercial areas. In five years, it is terrifying to develop a total of 6 million square meters of new buildings in Xucheng."

"The key is to economic development. As the demand for housing is increasing, per capita income is increasing and purchasing capacity is increasing, it is not too surprising that Xucheng will add a new demand of 30 to 50 million square meters in the residential area in the future." Li Gu nodded. He also appreciated the ability to stand in a more macro role to view Xucheng's urban development rather than being limited to the interests of Meigang's family.

Xie Chengjiang secretly stumbled on his lips. The theoretical demand was just a theory, but he might refute Chen Huai and Li Gu's words. Donghua City District is only one-third of Jiangning's population. However, Donghua City District, Meixi New District, and Xiapu Lingang New City added more than one million square meters of urban construction area last year. From these data, we can indeed see the powerful role of industrial development in promoting urban development; and Chen Huai has indeed proposed the theory of industrial development to promote urban development...

But even so, Chen Huai's establishment of a provincial state-owned assets real estate group to join the bureau will put great pressure on all real estate developers in Xu City. With such a large supply, housing prices should not want a large increase in three to five years.

Chen Huai smiled and said to Li Gu: "The Provincial State-owned Assets Office will not delay the deadline of 2003 before finally stopping the welfare housing distribution of provincial enterprises. This year, it is planned to cut off the departments related to fundraising and building housing. As a transition, the province also needs to establish a real estate development group. On the other hand, it should be said that a plan submitted by Beitang District touched me..."

"What plan in Beitang District has impressed you?" Li Gu asked.

The districts and counties submitted plans to the city, and there were many proposals. Li Gu could not think of any plan directly related to the Provincial State-owned Assets Office, and it could also touch Chen Huai's thoughts.

"Of course, this plan was not submitted directly to the State-owned Assets Office. I also learned about the relevant situation when I visited the Provincial Textile Group for investigation. This is also the reason why I wanted to talk to Deputy Secretary Zhou." Chen Huai said.

Chen Huai said this, and Li Gu thought of what was going on and asked: "You mean the expansion of Huaxi Comprehensive Wholesale Market?"

Beitang District Huaxi Comprehensive Wholesale Market is a project that Zhou Weimin was responsible for after he went to Beitang District to serve as executive deputy district mayor. He also resigned from the position of Secretary of the Working Committee of the Huaxi Market Management Committee and Chairman of the Development Corporation until the New Year.

After completion, Huaxi Comprehensive Wholesale Market took advantage of the traffic advantages of the railway station and the long-distance passenger station, and formed nearly 2,000 merchants in four years and developed into the largest small and medium-sized commodity distribution center in Huaihai Province. The transaction volume was confirmed to exceed 1.5 billion (the actual amount may exceed a large amount), and the number of directly created employment was nearly 20,000.

Huaxi Comprehensive Wholesale Market can be said to be the most successful project in Beitang District in recent years.

When Zhou Weimin heard Chen Huai, Li Gu discussed something he was very proud of, so he was naturally excited, but Xiao Yi did not show his face and listened patiently to Chen Huai and Li Gu.

"Huaxi Market is close to the printing and dyeing factory of the Provincial Textile Group. It has developed very well in recent years. At present, the business owners are becoming saturated and it is extremely necessary to expand to the surrounding areas. At the same time, the pollution problem of the printing and dyeing factory of the Provincial Textile Group is a headache for Beitang District. Beitang District proposed to the Provincial Textile Group that it would invest to buy the land of the printing and dyeing factory for the expansion of the Huaxi Market," Chen Huai said with a smile. "The plan proposed by Beitang District is a killing two birds with one stone. I learned that Huaxi Comprehensive Market was also a project promoted by Deputy Secretary Zhou when he was the executive deputy district mayor. I wanted to find him the details of the expansion of the Huaxi Market..."

"You are a weasel to wish the chicken a New Year, and you are not kind," Li Gu raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't think about forming a real estate group in the province and using this land to develop it yourself, right?"

"Yes," Chen Huai smiled calmly and said, "The water does not flow to outsiders' fields. The province has established a real estate group. It is completely possible to use this piece of land to develop the second phase of Huaxi Wholesale Market project. There is no need to leave it to others to do..."
