Before Zhou Zijian came to Hedong Province, he worked for the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation. He had always been engaged in foreign-related business. He did not know enough about some domestic situations, and he was not so clear about the situation in Hedong Province.
Although he had an old relationship with Comrade Yueshan, this time he was nominated by Comrade Yueshan and transferred to Hedong Province to serve as a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee and the Secretary-General of the Provincial Committee. He was promoted one level and became a deputy provincial and ministerial official. However, he and Yueshan
After all, a comrade doesn't talk about everything, so there are some things he doesn't know.
Just like this time, Ye Kai told him that he could solve the financing problem, but would not follow the current thinking of the provincial party committee. Zhou Zijian was very surprised, and asked him what on earth was this young man thinking?
Although Zhou Zijian is very curious about Ye Kai's thoughts and feels that he can't play any tricks, Zhou Zijian will not underestimate Ye Kai. After all, he was able to be recruited by Comrade Yue Shan to serve as the deputy team leader of the project team, and Ye Kai made plans
Responsible for the financing business, this shows that Ye Kai is definitely not a mediocre person.
And more importantly, Zhou Zijian himself was a department-level cadre not long ago, but Ye Kai, who is almost twenty-six years younger than him, is already a department-level cadre. What does this mean?
If you look at it in the eyes of outsiders, it means that Ye Kai has a deep background, but an official with a ministry background like Zhou Zijian understands that even if he is placed among the children of the powerful political families in the capital, at Ye Kai's age, he will die.
Even supporting a deputy director-level person is quite eye-catching. As for a department-level person, even a thirty-year-old is probably too young.
This can only mean one thing. Ye Kai not only has a background, but also has abilities. He is also extremely lucky, which is why he has his current status. This is something that others cannot envy.
And Zhou Zijian also understands this. Now the central government has made programmatic document requirements on the appointment and promotion of cadres, and the specific promotion conditions and years are very binding. If you want to repeat Ye Kai's story in the future,
I'm afraid it's unlikely unless there are major changes in policy.
"Since Comrade Ye Kai has his own ideas, why not tell him about it?" Zhou Zijian was thinking about these messy things, but he didn't stop for a moment and asked politely.
"Since the secretary-general has asked, let me tell you my thoughts on this matter." Ye Kai nodded and said, "Secretary Yue Shan once briefly mentioned it to me about the matter of fundraising. His idea is to save the province.
The province will raise 30% to 40% of the funds within the province, strive for about 40% of the funding from the Ministry of Transport, and the rest will be completed by bank loans. In this case, based on a cost of 3 billion, the province will need to raise 900 million to 1.2 billion of its own funds.
.The Ministry of Transport allocated an allocation of 1.2 billion and a bank loan of around 600 million to 900 million.”
After hearing this, Zhou Zijian nodded, indicating that Ye Kai was right and that Secretary Yue Shan had indeed considered it this way.
But this is just a general calculation in the province. After all, the amount of funds invested in such a large project is too large. It is estimated that if the country wants to approve it, the financial pressure will still be great, especially on the Ministry of Transport.
It is probably not that difficult to spend 1.2 billion to support Hedong Province.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this problem that the project approval of the highway in Hedong Province has never been discussed.
It is estimated that Secretary Yue Shan appointed Ye Kai to solve this problem because he was interested in the energy behind Ye Kai and hoped that he could solve this funding problem with the help of external forces.
As long as the funding problem is solved, the highway construction problem will actually be much easier.
"But I can say with absolute certainty that the Ministry of Transport can afford 600 million, which is a huge deal. 1.2 billion is simply impossible!" Ye Kai said clearly.
"Oh, why?" Zhou Zijian was also surprised after hearing this. He didn't know why Ye Kai said so confidently, as if he was the minister of the Ministry of Transportation.
This issue of capital investment ratio is not a random one, but is calculated based on the share of some large projects in the past. Therefore, Zhou Zijian believes that there should be no problem if the Ministry of Communications invests 1.2 billion, but Ye Kai said this
When you think about it, it seems like there should be some hidden secret in it.
"I talked about this matter with the son of Vice Minister Cao Qiuming of the Ministry of Transport. He said that the Ministry of Transport has also been under great financial pressure recently." Ye Kai said to Zhou Zijian, "The most important thing is the comparison of investment in various places in the past few years.
There are many, and the central government has recently implemented tightening controls. Both the ministry and the banks are facing tight funding. Speaking of which, now is not the best time to build expressways."
After Zhou Zijian heard this, he did not refute, but just sighed and said, "Everyone knows this situation, but time waits for us. The transportation in Hedong Province mainly relies on the north and south roads, while the east and west roads are full of difficulties. If this expressway is built,
, then the passage to the east will be opened, which is of great significance to the overall economic development of Hedong Province. Therefore, Secretary Yue Shan is also very determined to overcome all difficulties and complete it and open it to traffic as soon as possible."
"Of course I admire Secretary Yue Shan's courage in wanting to do things, but the reality is this." Ye Kai said, "So I don't plan to raise funds according to the original idea of the provincial party committee, but to raise funds from the society."
"Raising funds from the society? I'm afraid this is inappropriate." After hearing this, Zhou Zijian frowned. Apparently he didn't understand what Ye Kai meant.
Although according to the plan, the province needs to raise 900 million to 1.2 billion in self-funded funds, the government can only solve a few problems. The province has even considered mobilizing public donations to build this expressway.
to make up for the government's lack of financial resources.
But Zhou Zijian also knows that excessive solicitation of donations may also cause bad social impacts and cause many problems.
If the funds were sufficient, the province would not be willing to do this.
But listening to the meaning behind Ye Kai's words, he should be thinking about this, so Zhou Zijian also felt a little worried.
"Of course it's not that simple." Ye Kai suddenly laughed, "For example, if this road is opened to traffic, not all the people in Hedong Province will benefit from it. Depending on the focus, we can divide it into
Several key beneficiary areas will come to the project, and then the construction funds will be allocated."
"Local governments don't have that much money." Zhou Zijian reminded that although this approach of breaking things up into parts may sound reasonable, it is actually unworkable. After all, any city cannot do so in the short term.
There is no time to come up with hundreds of millions of special construction funds.
"What I mean is that after the funds are diluted, they can be converted into highway equity in exchange for local government funds. If the local government has no money, these funds can also be raised by mortgaging highway equity or mortgaging other assets."
Ye Kai replied, "I think there are already a lot of rich people in the local area, and there should be a lot of people who are willing to cooperate with the city government in this way."
After Zhou Zijian thought about it for a while, he said, "In principle, this thing is feasible, but when it comes to the issue of equity allocation and exchange between the government and private individuals, there is no precedent, so it may not be easy to operate.
"
"If this doesn't work, then we have to settle for the next best thing." Ye Kai spread his hands and said, "I can find big funds and directly invest in the expressway. The ownership belongs to the province, but the operating rights are contracted by the investor for a certain period of time.
, how about this?”
After Zhou Zijian heard this, he was even more unsure.
What kind of big fund can you get so much money at once, and it is used to build roads?
You know, even if this idea works, all aspects of the work will be very complicated. When the management rights are contracted, the issue of highway tolls, high and low, will always be troublesome. What if someone says that I contracted the highway?
, I can charge as much as I am willing to charge, so what should the province do?
"If the province has this intention, I can solve the funding problem immediately, and the funds will be available within three days. At the same time, the contract period for the completion command will be twenty years, and after expiration, it will be transferred to the provincial government for independent operation."
Seeing that Zhou Zijian seemed quite moved, Ye Kai added another sentence.
"I have to report this matter to Comrade Yue Shan first. If he agrees, I will have to go to the Standing Committee to discuss it." Zhou Zijian said cautiously.
Although Ye Kai's suggestion is a bit like rural land contracting, the ownership still belongs to the state, but the management rights belong to individuals. In principle, it should make sense, but because there is no precedent, and it is not
He didn't know the various impacts after completion, so Zhou Zijian had no way to respond. He could only take Ye Kai's suggestions back to see what Secretary Yue Shan's opinions were and what the Standing Committee members' opinions were.
Of course, from Zhou Zijian's personal point of view, this business is still good. He saves a penny and does not have to spend a penny. The road is built. As for paying the toll on the road, that is also a reasonable thing. As for the road toll, it seems to be a waste.
It's a loss, but it doesn't cost money, and you can still collect part of the tax every year. This is a relatively cost-effective business.
However, from the perspective of political impact, there is no precedent after all, so it has to be handled with caution.
Zhou Zijian even felt that Comrade Yue Shan alone might not be able to make a decision on this matter, and might need to ask the central government for instructions.
Thinking of this, Zhou Zijian couldn't help but look at Ye Kai again and said to himself that this young man is really powerful. He can solve the problem in a few words, but he also raised a bigger and more difficult problem. Direct private investment in building highways. This
The problem is indeed very difficult.
Once it is completed, it will be the first in the world. If it fails, it will bring shame to the entire leadership team of Hedong Province and even affect their political future.
