Chapter 360 I mean
The financing platform of Luzhuang City is like other government-linked units. Although it rented a commercial building at the beginning, after nearly two years of development, the financing platform now has its own exclusive building.
This approach is undoubtedly a waste, and it is also an agency habit that Chen Ping hates, but unfortunately this is the usual style of officials, and Chen Ping cannot be too entangled in this issue. As long as this financing platform can work well in the direction he expected, these things will be negligible.
Since the financing platform has been on track in the past two years of development, the door of the financing platform's office building is not usually full of cars from small and medium-sized business owners who come to ask for loans as they did at the beginning.
However, on this day, the entrance of the office building of the financing platform became lively again. Many vehicles were parked in the originally empty parking lot at the door, and the door was decorated with lights. There was even a red carpet extending from the main entrance of the building. All of this, the hanging banner can explain the problem, which read: Warmly welcome the Municipal Government Working Group to inspect the work.
Although the financing platform is nominally an institution, it is still inseparable from the government agencies. Therefore, once the working group of the municipal government comes down to check, even if the financing platform is formalism, it must be the best reception specifications. Not to mention that this time, the deputy mayor Chen Ping was led by the team himself. You should know that Chen Ping is the direct person in charge and creator of the financing platform, which has made the financing platform more and more powerful. Not only did all the cadres of the financing platform gather together, but even Zhang Yanhua, secretary of the Party Working Committee of the development zone where the financing platform is located, came here.
After Chen Ping came to the financing platform, he actually delivered a speech to all the employees of the financing platform in accordance with the established procedures, affirming the past achievements made by the financing platform and its contributions to the economic development of Luzhuang City. At the same time, he also encouraged everyone to continue to work hard, continue to carry forward their work style and spirit, and strive to make the financing platform achieve a greater role in future development.
After the speech, Chen Ping asked the working group he brought to conduct an inspection of the various work of the financing platform, and Chen Ping called the chairman of the financing platform and Zhang Yanhua to the office for a meeting.
In the office, Chen Ping sat on the sofa and looked at the brief description of the past development of the financing platform and its future development plans. Opposite him, Gao Jianhong and Zhang Yanhua, the chairman of the financing platform, were sitting there tremblingly.
Chen Ping looked at it for a while, and suddenly put down the document, looked up and breathed a sigh of relief. When the two people on the other side saw Chen Ping's movements, they immediately subconsciously straightened their already upright waists.
Looking at the actions of both of them, Chen Ping waved his hand and smiled: "You don't need to be so restrained, just relax. I'm just here to see the development of the platform today."
Although Chen Ping said this, the two of them dared not relax at all. Just kidding, they are all old foxes who have been struggling in the officialdom for many years. How could they take the leader's politeness seriously? And today Chen Ping still came with a work composed of several key departments of the Municipal Audit Bureau.
Who doesn’t know that Chen Ping once served as the director of the Audit Bureau for more than three years? The Audit Bureau treats Chen Ping as his base. This time, since Chen Ping brought so many Audit Bureau people to financing the platform, how could he just look at the development of the platform as he said?
However, if we don’t believe it, at least we can’t be neglected on the surface. According to the level, Zhang Yanhua first said to Chen Ping: “Mayor Chen is the leader who brought Luzhuang’s economy out of the quagmire. How dare we be too casual in front of Mayor Chen? Doesn’t that mean we are too disrespectful to our leaders?”
Gao Jianhong on the other side also said to Chen Ping: "Mayor Chen is the advocate of our financing platform. As the chairman of the platform, I always keep in mind Mayor Chen's teachings and must always treat our every job with the most humble and cautious attitude."
Of course, Chen Ping knew what they were worried about, but in fact, he just talked with Concubine Xiao last night and decided to make the financing platform better improve the role of promoting the city's economy before the new mayor came. Therefore, he brought the Audit Bureau to find out the advantages and disadvantages of the platform's work and then think of countermeasures.
How could these people believe Chen Ping’s actual idea?
Chen Ping did not explain anything. He said directly: "The financing platform has been established for almost two years. In the past two years, the platform's contribution to Luzhuang's economic development is worthy of recognition. I have already mentioned this in my speech just now, so I will not repeat it here."
"This is all Mayor Chen has the right leadership." Zhang Yanhua and Gao Jianhong said in a hurry to flatter Chen Ping.
"It is certainly gratifying to have achievements. This shows that setting up a financing platform is the correct choice for the municipal government, but in order to make the platform go further and better, we cannot see just these achievements. We must also see that the platform is developing or helping all the shortcomings shown in the process of economic development." Chen Ping deliberately paused at this point, and then continued, "And this is why I brought the working group here today."
"Mayor Chen is really planning ahead. He really treats the financing platform as his own son's care and love. On behalf of all the cadres and masses of the platform, we thank Mayor Chen for his sake." The two continued to flatter Chen Ping.
The preparation was over, and then Chen Ping looked up at the two of them and asked: "I heard that the financing platform has been somewhat weak in promoting the development of small and medium-sized enterprises recently, and it has not contributed as much to Luzhuang's economic development as before. Is that true?"
Chen Ping's question made Zhang Yanhua and Gao Jianhong feel a little sad. Then Zhang Yanhua said first: "Mayor Chen, I have always been in charge of the development of the development zone, and the development of the financing platform has been very stable, so I have paid little attention to the development of the platform recently. Regarding this, I want to apologize to Mayor Chen. However, I believe that as the person in charge of the financing platform, Director Gao will definitely be able to answer questions and solve problems for Mayor Chen."
I have to say that Zhang Yanhua’s words were very beautiful. First, he explained his job position, apologized to Chen Ping, and took away himself completely. In the last sentence, he threw all the revenge to Gao Jianhong.
Gao Jianhong was so angry at Zhang Yanhua's behavior of giving up, but there was nothing he could do. Who made him the person in charge of the financing platform?
So after some words, Gao Jianhong said to Chen Ping: "Mayor Chen is like this. When the financing platform was first established, it happened to be the economic recovery stage of Luzhuang. After experiencing the impact of the world economic crisis, small and medium-sized enterprises also urgently needed a large amount of loans to alleviate their own financial pressure. Therefore, the financing platform has a very obvious role in promoting the economy at this time."
"But now," Gao Jianhong continued, "Luzhuang City's economy has gradually started to get on track after two years of development, and the development of other small and medium-sized enterprises has also reached a higher level under the influence of financing platforms. In the current economic environment, the dependence on financing platforms is not high, and the maturity of the financing platform's own development has been fully integrated into the entire Luzhuang economy, so it will create an illusion that the financing platform's contribution and promotion to the economy are not as great as before."
I have to say that Gao Jianhong's answer was very exciting. In the simplest language, he explained the current situation of the financing platform clearly, and at the same time, he did not let Chen Ping down.
Chen Ping looked him up and down. Gao Jianhong is worthy of being a top student at the University of Finance and Economics. The reason why Chen Ping chose him as the person in charge of this financing platform was not only because he had excellent financial knowledge, but also because he was flexible and knew how to deal with people and things. Now it seems that Gao Jianhong can adapt to his role well, and he has not misunderstood it.
Chen Ping nodded and agreed to Gao Jianhong's answer. However, before the other party could breathe a sigh of relief, he continued to ask: "But I heard that there are problems with a lot of money loaned from the financing platform."
As soon as Chen Ping finished speaking, Gao Jianhong hurriedly denied: "Mayor Chen, this is nonsense, someone must have spread rumors!"
After saying that, Gao Jianhong realized that he had lost his composure, so he hurriedly apologized to Chen Ping: "Mayor Chen is sorry, I am so excited, but please believe that every amount of money I borrowed from the financing platform has been approved by the platform's board of directors. There is no such thing as going through the back door!"
Chen Ping waved his hand and said, "I can understand Mr. Gao's mood. I also believe in Mr. Gao and every program on the platform."
"I mean, it is a good thing to say that financing platforms help small and medium-sized enterprises in the city to make loans, but after lending these small and medium-sized enterprises, the money did not create the value it deserves." Chen Ping continued, "For example, I am the boss of a small and medium-sized enterprise. I borrowed one million from the financing platform. However, after I got the money, it did not help the company expand its large-scale production nor increase the salary of employees of the company. Isn't this a very embarrassing situation?"
"So," Chen Ping concluded, "I came today to discuss and study the solutions to this problem with you."
Chen Ping's words shocked Zhang Yanhua and Gao Jianhong. They looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's glasses.
They can't helplessly. They can understand the meaning of Chen Ping's words, but the problem is that since the money is loaned to the company, it should be the arrangements of these companies themselves. Does the financing platform even have to manage this? If this is true, it would be better to merge all the companies in Luzhuang City to let the financing platform inject capital and develop. But in this way, wouldn't it become a hodgepodge? This is a reversal of the economy!
Judging from the expressions of Zhang Yanhua and Gao Jianhong, Chen Ping knew that they must have misunderstood him. When Chen Ping was about to say something, the current audit director Zhang Xiaodong knocked on the door and walked in, took out a document and handed it to Chen Ping, and said to Chen Ping: "Mayor Chen, according to your requirements, this is the preliminary audit result."
