In the Luzhou County Government Building, Wu Shixin was sitting on a chair in his office, thinking about something in a daze, and on the desk in front of him, there were a bunch of documents.

This has been a week since he led the improvement of the county government's investment promotion policy. The documents he had in front of him were undoubtedly the economic data of enterprises in the development zone within the week given by the Bureau of Statistics. The data performed the best in the first three days, but it fell in the next few days.

It is not difficult to see from these data that the improvement of investment promotion policies can indeed bring some enthusiasm to enterprises settled in the development zone, but since the improvement is only part of the investment promotion policies, the enthusiasm brought to enterprises is still very one-sided. After the initial blowout, the subsequent development situation seems less satisfactory.

Regarding this issue, Wu Shixin of course asked Chen Ping for advice as soon as possible. After all, after the explosive growth of the economic growth of the development zone, Wu Shixin was already convinced by Chen Ping's ability.

Chen Ping's answer to this is very simple, which is to let Wu Shixin continue to deepen the reform of investment promotion policies and give development zone enterprises an ideal development environment as much as possible. Giving preferential treatment to enterprises is only one aspect, but more importantly, it is necessary to reduce the impact on enterprises. Among them, the first thing to bear is the random charging of enterprises.

According to the situation reported by the company, Wu Shixin knew that in addition to the management service fees charged by the Development Zone Management Committee to the company, the departments under the Management Committee and even the various departments and bureaus of the county government also set up various names to charge the company.

In addition, it is extremely troublesome for settled companies to go through the procedures in government departments. Many departments deliberately set obstacles for the company in order to make some money, or complicate the process that was originally easy to do, so as to threaten the company, so that these settled companies have to give these departments a large amount of red envelopes openly and secretly to complete the procedures.

These are criticized by various enterprises in the development zone. After all, for these enterprises, money is earned by themselves based on their own abilities. Why should these bureaucrats be cheaper?

In this case, Wu Shixin has used the power of the county magistrate to thoroughly investigate the abuse of power to threaten the company's charges, and also called the management committee to ask them to stop charging randomly, but the effect is not obvious.

This result is not surprising. You should know that this phenomenon of random charges does not exist for a day or two. In these months, I don’t know how many people have distributed the interests, and it is the interests that have made this phenomenon of random charges become more and more serious. So since the interests have been distributed, who wants to let go easily? Not to mention that in these months, these departments and officials who have obtained the benefits may have formed an interest group, and it is even more impossible for so many people to give up easily.

If it is a certain department or an official, then Wu Shixin dares to take action, but if these people form an interest group and even involve a certain member of the Standing Committee or higher, then Wu Shixin must consider it.

Wu Shixin also asked Chen Ping for advice on this question, and Chen Ping's answer to this question was also simple and clear. Chen Ping said: "Development comes at a price. If you want to achieve development, you must always violate the interests of some people. If you choose to give in, then don't talk about development. You can only grit your teeth and dare to violate these interests to achieve development."

Chen Ping's words kept echoing in Wu Shixin's mind. If it were Wu Shixin in the past, he would definitely not have touched these interest groups. After all, this political risk was too great. But now Wu Shixin has seen the potential of the development zone and the political achievements it may bring to him, making him feel that he can fight.

Thinking of this, Wu Shixin picked up the phone and called Ding Huilin, director of the Development Zone Management Committee, and said to him: "Director Ding, come to my office right away."

After saying that, Wu Shixin didn't explain much, so he hung up the phone directly. Ding Huilin was surprised and didn't understand what Wu Shixin's phone call was like.

However, no matter how hard I don’t understand, the leader’s orders will be completed in the end, so Ding Huilin put down the phone and set off from the management committee of the development zone and came to Wu Shixin’s office.

When Ding Huilin knocked on the door and came in, Wu Shixin did not pay attention to him immediately. Facing Ding Huilin's subconscious question, "What's the urgent matter for me, County Magistrate Wu?" Wu Shixin just said kindly without raising his head, then pretended to be still looking at the documents, and left Ding Huilin there for a while.

This is a common trick that officials use. It is nothing more than trying to show their identity and then to create some psychological pressure on the other party. After all, the other party does not know the purpose of calling him, and they always think randomly. Wu Shixin's purpose is naturally the same.

After a while, Wu Shixin looked up and said to Ding Huilin: "Director Ding, I called you here this time because I have received many complaints from companies in the development zone regarding the management committee's random charges. I want to hear your opinion first."

Regarding the random charges, Ding Huilin immediately denied: "Mr. Wu is absolutely nothing! Every charge item in my development zone management committee has a basis. I have not increased any charge items without authorization. I did it completely in accordance with the investment promotion policy instructions of the county party committee and county government."

"As the saying goes, there is no wind, no waves. If Director Ding doesn't have such a thing, why would a settled company complain to me?" Wu Shixin asked again.

Ding Huilin replied: "This must be a false accusation made by someone on the Management Committee for some ulterior motives. Please don't believe these rumors!"

Wu Shixin felt that it would be meaningless to continue to go around like Ding Huilin, so he simply said to him directly: "Director Ding, I don't care whether these rumors are directed against you. I don't mean to blame you. However, as far as I know, the charges and fees of the Management Committee are really too high. Charging based on the gross domestic product of the enterprise is completely to crack down on the enthusiasm of the enterprise to vigorously develop! This is also inconsistent with the promotion of our county government, so we must make corrections. If you should reduce or cancel, you should cancel. For specific situations, Director Ding, you will submit a detailed report to me tomorrow."

After Wu Shixin finished speaking, he saw Ding Huilin looking embarrassed and asked, "Why is there any problem with Director Ding?"

Ding Huilin said: "Mr. Wu, these charging items are the result of collective discussion. They have been implemented in the development zone for so long and so rashly cancelled, I am worried that it will have an impact on the reputation of the government agencies."

Wu Shixin waved his hand to this and said, "Director Ding, you don't need to worry about this. I think the reputation of the government needs to be maintained by serving the people. Unreasonable charges complained by the general public should be cancelled."

Ding Huilin wanted to say something, but at this time Wu Shixin said first: "Okay, Director Ding, I am not discussing with you, but asking you to complete the task given to you by this county government!"

Ding Huilin had no choice but to say, "Okay, County Magistrate Wu, when I go back, I will conduct a statistics on the current charges of the Management Committee, and then report it to County Magistrate Wu as soon as possible."

"It's not as soon as possible, but it must be completed tomorrow. I don't want you to count, but I must cancel these unreasonable charging items!" Wu Shixin emphasized.

In response, Ding Huilin said: "County Magistrate Wu, these charging items have been registered with the county party committee. Should we cancel the items, should we notify Secretary Xue?"

Hearing this, Wu Shixin slapped the table hard and said, "Director Ding, are you pressing me against Secretary Xue?"

Ding Huilin was startled. He was about to explain something, but Wu Shixin continued to say to him: "Director Ding, I want to remind you that it is the responsibility of the county government and the policy direction that Secretary Xue has always advocated. So if you can't come up with a plan to cancel the random charges tomorrow, then I will reconsider whether you can serve as the director of the Development Zone Management Committee."

After Wu Shixin said that, he waved his hand and asked Ding Huilin to leave his office without giving him any chance to speak.
Chapter completed!
