Chapter 143 Pan Shihua

Updated: 2012-09-01

(I haven't stopped updating for more than two consecutive months, please praise myself; this time I work hard and keep updating for 100 days!)

As the second large-scale enterprise in Meixi Town with a net asset of over 10 million, Ziluo Home Textiles was registered and established in early March. Although Zhonghe Investment, an overseas private company controlled by Sun Yalin, invested only 100,000 US dollars in Ziluo Home Textiles, accounting for 8% of the shares, because of such a frightening name, Xiapu County quickly made concessions and approved the establishment of a joint venture.

Although Tao Jixing would not be willing to take too much responsibility for Meixi Town, which is about to be deducted, investment promotion is a task that every secretary and every county magistrate has to pay attention to.

The total amount of foreign investment in Xiapu County actually used only US$1.5 million last year. Zhonghe Investment's investment in Ziluo Family seems to be only US$100,000, but it is also a business achievement that Xiapu County does not want to give up easily.

Zhujiang Construction was established at the same time, with Zhu Li, Chu Yiliang and Yang Haipeng holding shares of four, three and three respectively. Although the registered capital was only one million, Zhu Li played a key role in the deep foundation of Donghua’s construction industry. At the beginning of Zhujiang Construction, a team of quite professional engineers was drawn up. Yang Guirong, Baijiang and other construction teams from Meixi Town were also affiliated with Zhujiang Construction.

In addition to the project of renovating the transitional house in the weaving and dyeing factory workshop, under the recommendation of Sun Yalin, Yexin Bank also handed over the two business outlets in Meixi and Tangzha District to Zhujiang Construction for the renovation.

Sun Yalin also tried to save trouble and threw the renovation project of the old house to Zhu Li for work. The next day, she sent a cash check of 200,000 yuan in renovation to Zhujiang Construction.

In order to better promote the fundraising housing project, Shen Huai registered and established the town-owned Meixi Real Estate Co., Ltd. under the Assets Office, and added the title of general manager to himself. The actual work was mainly on Guo Quan's head.

The town cannot afford to build a house. Although cadres and staff have been hoping to raise funds to build a house and improve their living environment, the project suddenly started and hesitated.

Shen Huai took out two million from the steel plant to serve as a special fund for steel plant employees to participate in the construction of housing funds. He first transferred the property company to start the housing project.

Twelve ordinary residential buildings can be built with hundreds of acres of land, but the start-up capital of 2 million yuan can only be built first with two buildings near the south side of the Gangchang Road. But even so, building hundreds of residential buildings at one time is also the largest residential project launched by Meixi Town since its history.

In early March, almost at the same time as Zhujiang Construction was established, the construction team of Zhujiang Construction entered the construction site on the south side of the Steel Factory Road and began the construction of the fund-raising housing project.

As soon as the construction team entered the site, the town’s topic of fundraising and building houses suddenly became lively.

The renovation of residential buildings in towns is tighter than that in surrounding rural areas, and every household is close to each other, so there is no room for renovation.

At this time, the municipal facilities in Meixi Town were quite lagging behind. The residential area had not even fully laid out tap water pipes, and a considerable number of people's daily water relied on excavator wells, let alone public pipelines such as rain and sewage. Fund-raising housing projects, gas, tap water and sewage pipelines can all be built on public facilities of steel plants. The living conditions of the built fund-raising housing community will be no worse than the housing in the city.

Due to the large initial investment, the cost of the raised housing per square meter of the property company is 650 yuan, which is not much cheaper than the residential houses in the city. However, the number of commercial housing sold in Donghua City is very small. Due to transportation, household registration and other reasons, there are still many families in the town who urgently need to have one or two more houses nearby to improve their living conditions due to various reasons such as children's growth and adulthood.

Fund-raising housing is mainly small and medium-sized apartments. It only costs 40,000 to 50,000 yuan to participate in fund-raising construction. It is not out of reach for a considerable number of families in Meixi Town. By mid-March, when they paid the money from the property company, more than 100 residents participated in fund-raising construction.

The property company, including the steel mill employees, quickly raised tens of millions of dollars in housing construction. By late March, Chen Huai decided to start the construction of four residential buildings.

At the same time, the work in all aspects of Donghua City is also proceeding in an orderly manner.

In late March, after Tan Qiping's repeated urges, the Municipal Steel Plant, Municipal Construction Company and Yexin Bank finally reached an agreement to transfer to Tianheng Building as a whole after more than two months of negotiations.

Although compared with the 110 million construction funds invested by the Municipal Steel Plant, Yexin Bank was only willing to pay less than 80 million in mergers and acquisitions by purchasing the under-constructed Tianheng Building, it was only willing to pay less than 80 million in mergers and acquisitions, but getting the money in one go also caused the Municipal Steel Plant to breathe a sigh of relief in its business difficulties.

Earlier, the Municipal Standing Committee meeting discussed and approved the decision to demarcate Meixi and Hetang towns from Xiapu County and incorporate them into Tangzha District, and submitted them to the provincial government for approval.

However, it is also a good opportunity to catch up. Many cities and cities in Huaihai Province have requirements to adjust the urban area. The provincial government has followed the trend and passed multiple applications. The approval document for Meixi Town to transfer Tangzha District was approved at the end of March.

This time the merger is mainly to open up space for the development of the city to the southeast.

However, in Shen Huai's view, it is far from thorough enough: Jinghai Township and Haiken Farm in the southeast wing should be placed together, so as to completely open up the space for the development of the southeast wing river and seaside cape and form a large pattern of riverside and seaside development.

The Municipal Standing Committee meeting discussed and decided on regional adjustments, but after the two towns were merged into Tangzha District, the administrative links were coordinated by Tangzha District and Xiapu County, so the city no longer asked about it.

He Qingshe has always been responsible for the coordination of township registration and merger before. However, on the afternoon of the 28th, the day after the provincial formal approval was issued, Tangzha District held a standing committee meeting to discuss the financial and construction plans of Meixi and Hetang towns. As the secretary of the town party committee, Chen Huai had to attend the meeting with He Qingshe to face the "big guys" in the district.

As dozens of petitioners blocked the door, Chen Huai asked Chu Qiang to park his car outside the district party committee and government compound. He and He Qingshe walked in.

I didn't know if it was a car for the people who visited the surrounding area to see it. As soon as Chen Huai and He Qingshe were about to enter the gate, they heard someone gathering around and shouting: "They are also officials. Our factory affairs must be grasped to solve the problem..."

Seeing three or five people coming around when they heard the sound, Chen Huai smiled and said, "Don't hurt innocent people by chance. We just came to the district government to ask the officials for work. Do you think I am so young, like an official?" He is not a person with a sense of justice, and also knows that some things cannot be solved by asking him. He walked into the district government compound with He Qingshe and stopped after entering the gate. He heard the staff who were preventing the masses from rushing in at the gate, and only then did he know that the district canning factory had been suspended for three months.

Not everyone can solve this problem. There are more than 300 large, medium and small state-owned enterprises in the urban area, and many of them are in trouble. Chen Huai and He Qingshe can only stand by and watch.

At this time, a fat man was blocking the crowd at the gate. It was useless to explain it. I wanted to rush in several times, but the jacket was pulled down by someone. Chen Huai and He Qingshe saw it.

The fat man, Yuan Hongjun, the newly appointed secretary of Hetang Town, should have also been summoned to attend the district standing committee meeting to discuss the future financial and construction plans of the two towns; don’t think that Yuan Hongjun is the town party committee secretary, but he is tall and has fat heads and ears, his hair is combed back with greasy stirrups, wearing a high-end jacket and a leather briefcase under his armpits, which looks bigger than the style of the district party secretary.

However, Zhu Xueqi, the mayor of Hetang Town, was black and thin, with a low appearance, and wearing a wrinkled jacket, quietly entered the courtyard through the side door.

Seeing Yuan Hongjun rushing into the door in a mess and almost snatched the briefcase in his hand, He Qingshe smiled and said, "It is said that Secretary Yuan's style is chasing Secretary Yang Yuquan. I don't see it much, but the eyes of the masses are really bright..." He Qingshe has worked in the townships below Xiapu County for many years and is very familiar with grassroots cadres. Seeing Yuan Hongjun's embarrassing appearance, he couldn't help but laugh at him for a few words.

The former secretary of Hetang Town was seriously injured due to a fall in the snow disaster. Although he was rated as advanced in disaster relief, he could not continue to serve as the Party Secretary of Hetang Town. Yuan Hongjun was transferred from other townships after the New Year, and he rushed to Hetang Town and Meixi Town to Tangzha District together.

"In the future, we two will stand on the same front, and it is too late to share the same hatred of the enemy. You Heizi didn't say that you came to take the lead, but stood aside to watch the show. Your conscience is really bad," Yuan Hongjun was familiar with He Qingshe, laughing and scolding casually, but he only met Chen Huai twice. He reached out and said, "If the district does not communicate first, we will just come over and participate in the discussion of the future financial and construction plans of our two towns. What do you think in your heart, Secretary Chen?"

There is a tone issue for any meeting. Even if the tone between District Mayor Pan Shihua and District Party Secretary Yang Yuquan is inconsistent, Meixi and Hetang towns should not be prepared at all, so they come to discuss and decide the future financial and construction plans of the two towns.

"Maybe the district has already decided on the financial and construction plans of our two towns. We were summoned here and just informed us in person." Chen Huai said. Democratic consultation is good, but the district makes arbitrary decisions, and the township can only accept it silently.

"Oh," Yuan Hongjun sighed lightly, then patted Chen Huai's shoulder eagerly, and said, "We all came from Xiapu County. At first, it was almost certain that we were bullied for a few years. We can't blame others. However, we still have to support each other. After the meeting, if Secretary Chen and He Heizi are fine, what if we find a place to gather together?"

Although Chen Huai didn't really want to establish an offensive and defensive alliance with Hetang Town, Yuan Hongjun was not very reliable, but when Hetang Town had the resources of the river bank that Meixi Town did not have, he still couldn't refuse thousands of miles away. He nodded and agreed and said, "Okay, Secretary Yuan, Mayor Zhu, you choose a place, let's do it."

"I have arranged the place and the people who are working in the hall have also arranged it," Yuan Hongjun laughed, "This time we come to Hetang Town, and we will eat from you Meixi Town next time..."

I thought Yuan Hongjun had made arrangements long ago, and Chen Huai no longer insisted on anything, so he walked into the district government building with Yuan Hongjun, He Qingshe and Zhu Xueqi.

A few people came out of the foyer of the district government building. The middle-aged man in the middle saw Chen Huai and greeted him in a loud voice: "He Qingshe, is this the Party Secretary of your Meixi Town?"

Chen Huai was stunned and looked at the middle-aged man familiar. Then he thought that this person was the newly appointed deputy secretary of Tangzha District and acting district mayor Pan Shihua. He had almost no impression of Pan Shihua, but Pan Shihua looked a bit like his cousin Pan Shigui.

Seeing that he reached out with a eager face, he seemed to have no mind at all that the weaving and dyeing factory contracted by the Pan family called for forced closure in the town. Chen Huai was slightly surprised, grabbed Pan Shihua's hand and said, "Hello, District Mayor Pan, we are here to report to you today..."

"I have also learned about your work in Meixi Town. It is very good. The achievements are presented and the masses support and agree with it. I told Secretary Yang Yuquan that if Tangzha District needs to have more young cadres like you, the appearance of Tangzha District will be improved quickly." Pan Shihua said.

"I haven't had the chance to review the closure of the weaving and dyeing factory yet..." Chen Huai looked at Pan Shihua's eyes as he spoke.

Pan Shihua is tall, has a thin face, and wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. Although she looks a bit like her cousin Pan Shigui, perhaps because she has been working in the agency for a long time, she looks much more gentle than Pan Shigui.

"Meixi Town has done a good job in the weaving and dyeing factory, and has no demerits, and there is nothing to be reviewed. Shi Gui came to me before the New Year to complain. During the Spring Festival, I found someone to learn about the actual situation and knew that the weaving and dyeing factory caused great pollution to Meixi Town. We must pay attention to the environment in business. I have already scolded Shi Gui. In addition, I did not pay attention to this matter in time. It should be that I want to review the people of Meixi Town. Secretary Chen, you have done a good thing for the people of Meixi Town."

Pan Shihua said a few more words to Yuan Hongjun, He Qingshe, and Zhu Xueqi, and said, "I'll go out first. There are so many petitioners around the gate. As the district mayor, I can't solve it. Secretary Yang should meet you before the meeting. We will meet in the conference room later..."

To be honest, Chen Huai was mentally prepared for Pan Shihua to wear small shoes, so he was also a little surprised by Pan Shihua's attitude at this time. Seeing Pan Shihua walking towards the petitioners who were blocking the gate accompanied by district government officials, he was full of doubts.

"District Mayor Pan is like a person who does something big..." Yuan Hongjun sighed softly.

Chen Huai had a different thought in his heart: Could it be that Pan Shihua really followed Tan Qiping's path and was adjusted to Tangzha District as deputy secretary and acting district mayor? Just like he was very dissatisfied with Su Kaiwen and Zhou Ming, he had to maintain the unity of the entire circle. Even though Pan Shihua complained that he had closed the weaving and dyeing factory contracted by the Pan family, since Pan Shihua chose to follow Tan Qiping's path, he still had to put the conflict with him aside first.

Chen Huai's eyes were slightly slight, and his heart was a little cold: Tan Qiping completely marginalized him, so he would not leak the news of the personnel transfer of department-level cadres to him in advance.
