Xipizha District and Tiansheng Port are not within the scope of Meixi New District and Tangzha District. However, in addition to being the secretary of the Tangzha District Party Committee, Xiong Wenbin is also the executive vice mayor responsible for the city's economic work. He naturally needs to have a global perspective when considering issues.

A year ago, Chen Huai proposed the concept of building a riverside expressway, which not only accelerated the connection between Meixi New District and the upcoming Xudong Expressway, but also made it more important to promote the formation of a physical industrial belt on the north bank of the Zhujiang River.

Xipizha Port and Tiansheng Port are both located in this area. The upgrade and expansion of Xipizha Port and Tiansheng Port will ultimately be conducive to the rapid formation of this industrial belt.

Xiong Wenbin now clearly put forward this concept, Chen Huai was so sloppy and said it casually, but in fact he could not help but support it.

However, support is about money.

The eight-kilometer-long river expressway, including the bridge at the mouth of Meixi River, will not be less than 200 million yuan, which is equivalent to building four Zhuxi Avenues.

Industrial Investment and New Urban Investment are strong, but they do not mean that they have the ability to spend 200 million yuan in cash.

The Jianyanjiang Expressway is not a toll road, so there will be no direct returns - there is no income and no cash flow. It is not easy to borrow from financial institutions. It requires Industrial Investment and Xincheng Investment to deduct 200 million yuan from other places.

In addition, the upgrade and expansion of Xipizha Port and Tiansheng Port require a huge amount of funds, which is not something that the two groups, Industrial Investment and Xincheng Investment, can afford.

"Lao Xiong, you have a lot to do. It is far from enough to rely solely on Meixi Industrial Investment and Xincheng Investment," Chen Huai said in contemplation, "The city should also establish Industrial Investment and Urban Investment Group outside of Beijing Investment, so as to better do a good job in municipal and infrastructure work."

"The city needs to promote work, but it is not urgent," said Xiong Wenbin. "It has been nearly a year since Meixi New District proposed, but Meixi, Zhushe and Huangqiao Towns have not really started to integrate. I hope that the next stage of work will mainly include the development rights of industrial land in Zhushe and Huangqiao townships, including the Science and Technology Industrial Park, in Meixi Industrial Investment; the construction of the new district municipal government will be placed in the new urban investment. On the one hand, it is to strengthen the strength of industrial investment and new urban investment to promote the integration of Meixi New District as soon as possible. On the other hand, it is also necessary to require industrial investment and new urban investment to bear heavier responsibilities."

Meixi Engineering Investment and Xincheng Investment. After all, the Rong Investment Group, Huangqiao and Zhushe, under the Dumeixi Town Government, are not affiliated with Meixi Town in terms of status, but they form Meixi New District with Meixi Town.

Now we need to place the industrial land development rights of Zhushe and Huangqiao into Meixi Industrial Investment, and place the municipal development and construction rights in the two townships and areas into the new urban investment. In accelerating the integration of the three townships in Meixi New District, Huangqiao and Zhushe will actually completely subordinate the two townships of Huangqiao and Zhushe.

Guo Quan, Huang Xinliang and others definitely have no objection to this, but Huangqiao and Zhushe townships will inevitably have a stumble.

Only by pressing down from the city and district can it be called Huangqiao and Zhushe townships have nothing to say.

If you want the city and the district to push down in the form of administrative orders, it does not mean that Xiong Wenbin is the executive vice mayor and the district party secretary. If you don’t want to be a handle for others to attack, you must have a legitimate reason to block everyone’s mouths.

The legitimate reason is that Industrial Investment, Xincheng Investment undertakes the important task of upgrading and expansion of Yanjiang Expressway and Xipizha Port, and Tiansheng Port - if you let others do things, you have to give them benefits.

Xiong Wenbin's idea is also a matter of killing birds.

Of course, Chen Huai also understood why Xiong Wenbin said that some work was in a hurry.

Some ideas are not bad, nor are they not that others don’t know how good they are. The key lies in the question raised by who asked.

Unless there are obvious benefits that cannot be rejected, any plan that seems promising but also accompanied by huge risks will face huge resistance to implementing it.

Donghua has also made some achievements in attracting investment in the real economy in recent years. Investment in infrastructure mainly depends on its own accumulation.

In 1995, Donghua City's local fiscal expenditure reached 1.6 billion yuan, and even if nearly half of it is spent on infrastructure construction, it is only 800 million yuan. Without changing this model, it is difficult to make large investments in infrastructure construction. If infrastructure hard environments cannot keep up, the speed of investment promotion and the development of the real economy will be suppressed.

To get rid of this vicious cycle, we must innovate the infrastructure construction model - Chen Huai established an asset office very early in Meixi Town. Under the asset office, the industrial investment group is the main body, mainly undertakes the development of land and infrastructure in the industrial park, and the Xincheng Investment Group is the director, mainly undertakes the construction and development of municipal infrastructure in the town, and no longer as before, these matters are undertaken by the government.

It is also because of these new models that the scale of infrastructure investment in Meixi Town has increased by 100 million or 200 million every year to 100 million or 200 million or 200 million every year.

After two or three years of development, Meixi Industrial Investment and Meixi New Urban Investment have both developed to a certain scale.

Meixi Industrial Investment’s current main assets, in addition to the development rights of the other three industrial parks in Meixi New District, besides the Science and Technology Park, also have shares in physical enterprises such as Meigang, Meixi Power Plant and Meixi Port Company, with a total net assets of nearly 300 million yuan.

Among so many municipal enterprises in Donghua, after the merger and reorganization of the municipal steel industry, Tianshenggang Power Plant, which has high returns due to power shortage, has a larger net asset scale than Meixi Industrial Investment.

During Su Kaiwen's tenure as the Party Secretary of Meixi Town, in order to restrict Huang Xinliang, the power of municipal development and construction in the town was separated from Xincheng Investment.

Although Su Kaiwen mainly handed over the renovation of Xiamei Highway and the development of commercial plots on both sides to the construction company under the Municipal Steel Factory, and then was undertaken by a joint venture between Haifeng and Changqing Group, the development of Xincheng Investment was still quite affected. Its current assets mainly include properties in Meixi Old Town, Xuetang Street and other places, as well as the development of two residential areas in the northern part of the town, with a net asset of nearly 200 million.

No matter where it is placed, the results of Meixi Industrial Investment and Meixi New Urban Investment can be said to be remarkable.

When Shen Huai went to Meixi Town, although Meigang supported the assets of the town at that time, Meigang had barely avoided the fate of bankruptcy. In the end, it was estimated that the net assets were 40 million to facilitate loans - the other town assets were generally added up, which was far less than 100 million.

In less than three years, in addition to the scale of the real economy far exceeding the past, Meixi Town's assets have increased by more than six or seven times, which is a very dazzling achievement.

However, Xincheng Investment and Industrial Investment, in Meixi Town, or continue to provide infrastructure construction, development and investment services for Meixi Town, are sufficient. However, while serving Meixi Town, it also has to undertake the upgrade and expansion of the Yangtze River Expressway and Xipizha Port and Tiansheng Port. Chen Huai is still worried that the two groups will not be able to catch up.

Chen Huai pondered for a long time and said, "Huaineng raised 200 million US dollars in bond financing from Berkeley and BNP Paribas. In addition to starting the construction of three power plants in Jihe, Xiapu and Pingjiang, it can also squeeze out a part of it. Now it depends on whether the city is determined to cash out the Tianshenggang Power Plant. If so, the city's investment in infrastructure should be more relaxed."

Xiong Wenbin nodded and said, "Yes, this requires the city to have determination; however, I believe that Chen Baoqi still wants to do something when he comes to Donghua."

Due to the current shortage of electricity supply, Tianshenggang Power Plant is the best among current municipal enterprises, both in terms of asset quality and returns.

Huaineng is a wholly state-owned enterprise under the Ministry. The municipal government sold Tianshenggang Power Plant to Huaineng. There were no policy obstacles, and it was sold to Huaineng for cash. The city would not have any loss problems on the books, and it could also obtain a large amount of funds for special infrastructure.

The key is that a group of interest groups previously survived around the power plant. Now the power plant is transferred and sold to Huaineng, and the funds are directly entered into the municipal government account and used for special purposes. The interest groups can no longer rely on the survival of the power plant, and cannot obtain a trace of profit compensation from the sale of the power plant. The resistance behind the push of the whole thing can be imagined.

The Meigang Group officials may be pushing to do this. After all, it can strengthen the strength of Huaineng Group. The question is whether the Zhao Group led by Chen Baoqi will support it.

Otherwise, without the support of a higher level, Chen Baoqi's words of "carefulness" would almost make the whole plan ruined.

Is it possible for Chen Baoqi to support him?

Xiong Wenbin said that Chen Baoqi wanted to do things, but Chen Huai did not deny this.

If Chen Baoqi doesn't want to do things, he will not jump from the position of secretary-general of the provincial government to Donghua to serve as secretary of the municipal party committee.

However, when Chen Baoqi was doing things, he was considering protecting the interests of the Zhao clan, or being able to be dedicated to the public and do things for the local development of Donghua. This is hard to say.

After all, it is necessary to exchange interests.

Xiong Wenbin didn't say it thoroughly, but Chen Huai could understand his meaning, and asked Xiong Wenbin: "Old Xiong, are you saying that Huai can allocate funds to purchase Tianshenggang Power Plant, and the control of the funds was handed over to Chen Baoqi, so that the Zhao faction could participate in the construction of the Yangtze River Expressway and Xipizha Port, Tiansheng Port, based on this?"

"What do you think?" Xiong Wenbin asked.

"I also want to cooperate more with the Zhao faction in the future than disagreement," Chen Huai gritted his teeth and said, "In this way, you can talk about it. After all, you can't think of taking advantage of it when doing things. However, all the funds are controlled by the Zhao faction, and the amount can be compressed, so the landlords really don't have much surplus grain."

Xiong Wenbin laughed, pointed at Chen Huai, and said with a smile to He Qingshe and the others: "You guys say, what's the use of Chen Huai crying here?"

He Qingshe and Li Feng all laughed.

Chen Huai also said: "The current corporate development trend is better than dispersion. Meixi Industrial Investment and Xincheng Investment are still weak. Before, they needed division of labor to establish two platforms. But now we have to look at the problem at a higher level. The merger of the two companies into one seems to be the general trend..."

Xiong Wenbin nodded, knowing what Chen Huai means. There are more than 300 municipal enterprises, plus district and county enterprises and township enterprises, there are thousands, with dispersed forces and rigid management systems.

Next, whether it is the promotion of the Meigang Group or the Zhao Group, the restructuring of enterprises under the municipal and districts and counties, it is also a merger that should be merged, abolition that should be abolition, abolition that should be reorganized, abolition that should be reorganized, and abolition that should be reorganized, and abolition that should be reorganized, and abolition that should be reorganized, abolition that should be reorganized, and abolition that should be large-group development are also the general trend.

Meixi is the foundation of the Meisteel System, which is mainly reflected in its influence and control over Meixi Industrial Investment and Meixi New Urban Investment. Before, Chen Huai only wanted to ensure his status and influence in Meixi, so there is little difference between Industrial Investment and New Urban Investment.
