Chapter 377 How to serve the development of Jintang
At the same time, the small conference room of Jintang Municipal Government in Shannan Province was filled with smoke. Mayor Rao Ronggen was convening all municipal government leaders to urgently discuss an issue: Jintang Chemical Materials Company’s application for industrial land to build two new chemical plants. Report.
"Jintang Chemical Materials Group Co., Ltd. was just registered and established in our Industrial and Commercial Bureau. Jinnan Chemical Factory, Hongguang Fiberglass Factory and other enterprises that were previously merged by Mr. Qin Hai, an entrepreneur from Anhe Province, have now been merged into Mr. Ning Mo, the plenipotentiary representative of Mr. Qin Hai, a subsidiary of the Chemical Materials Group Company, proposed to us that he hopes the municipal government can provide them with 10,000 acres of land for the construction of two chemical plants. At the same time, he also hopes that we will set aside 20,000 acres of land for them. acres of land to build a large-scale enterprise with an annual output of 800,000 tons of ethylene in the future. What you see now are the application materials they submitted and the requirements for the location of the land."
Shen Chuanming, the deputy mayor in charge of industry, first introduced the basic situation of the issue to his colleagues.
"This is a great thing!" Vice Mayor Liu Xiangyang said excitedly, "I found out about Mr. Qin Hai a few days ago. It turns out he is a well-known entrepreneur. He does something The coating machine was sold to the European and American markets, and I heard that it made hundreds of millions, that is, several hundred million US dollars. Think about it, what kind of concept is this? Also, he merged with Jinnan Chemical Factory, Hongguang Fiberglass After several companies such as the factory, these companies have now resumed production. It is said that the profits are not bad, and it has solved the problem of many laid-off and unemployed people in our city.
Now Mr. Qin has integrated several companies and will invest in building another chemical plant. This will greatly promote the economic development of our Jintang and the employment of employees, and we should provide strong support."
Another deputy mayor, Chen Ziqiang, also echoed: "I agree with Lao Liu's point of view. We spend so much energy on attracting investment, but the investment we can attract is still very limited. Now people are sending investment to our door. , what else do we have to hesitate? Of course, we must do our best to provide support and provide all the preferential policies we can provide at once, and we cannot let this God of Wealth go to others."
"Yes, yes, since Mr. Qin arrived in Jintang, workers in several chemical plants have been saved, and the city's financial situation has also improved. We must hurry up with such a God of Wealth." The other deputy mayors Everyone said in unison.
Rao Ronggen frowned and said: "Inviting investment is an unswerving principle of the municipal government. You don't need to say more about this. We are holding such a mayor's office meeting today. The most important thing is to discuss, How can we provide the best service to the Chemical Materials Group Company? At the same time, how can we enable the Chemical Materials Group Company to best serve the development of Jintang?"
Rao Ronggen's words were a bit convoluted, but everyone here was a smart person, and they immediately understood the gist of Rao Ronggen's words. The so-called provision of services for the Chemical Materials Group Company was just a cover, and it was the same whether it was said or not. The key point lies in the last sentence, that is, if the Chemical Materials Group Company is allowed to serve Jintang.
Speaking of which, there are too many places where Jintang needs help from enterprises. Roads need to be repaired, schools need to be reinforced, government offices need to be renovated, and two new buildings need to be built for the family homes of municipal party committees... All of this boils down to They all have one word: money.
Although Jintang's industry has improved after Qinhai merged Jinnan Chemical Plant and other enterprises, the government's fiscal revenue is still very meager, and it is difficult to even pay wages to the city's agencies and institutions. Let alone
What kind of construction project is going on? Now there is a wealthy man who is said to have hundreds of millions of dollars in hand to expand investment in Jintang. Isn't this a good opportunity to make alms?
Officials in the government are no strangers to begging for alms from companies. However, they have always only begged for companies that have settled in Jintang. They would never dare to ask for help from companies that have not yet settled in Jintang. Think about it, they are still here
When you are considering whether to invest, why don't you scare away investors by asking for money?
Liu Xiangyang thought exactly like this. After hearing Rao Ronggen's hint, he smacked his lips and said awkwardly: "Mayor, I'm afraid this matter needs to be considered in the long run, right?"
"Old Liu, please tell me in detail, what do you mean?" Rao Ronggen asked expressionlessly.
Liu Xiangyang said: "I heard that the investment in the two new factories to be built by the Chemical Materials Group is in the tens of millions. The total amount is 20 to 30 million, which is equivalent to the total investment in our city in a year.
Most importantly, Chuan Ming also said just now that they plan to build an ethylene plant with an annual output of 800,000 tons in Jintang in the future. I have also learned about this situation. The total investment for such an ethylene plant may reach 6 billion to 6 billion.
8 billion. If such a large investor leaves in a fit of anger because of our... improper handling, then we will be the sinners of Jintang forever."
"What do you mean, Old Liu?" Chen Ziqiang asked from the side. There are not so many rules in the mayor's office meeting, and everyone speaks more casually. Of course, this is also on the premise that everyone's own interests are not involved.
If the issue discussed involves personal interests, naturally it will not be so harmonious.
Liu Xiangyang replied: "What I mean is that for such investors, we still have to focus on providing services. In fact, once the factory they build is put into operation, the taxes paid will also be very considerable. We can't just stare at our eyes.
Interests."
"Old Liu, I don't agree with your statement." A deputy mayor named Hu Tianshuang said, "It usually takes one or two years to build a factory. By the time it can be put into production and make a profit, I'm afraid three or four years have passed.
.Haven’t you heard people say that time is money? In today’s era, can we waste time in vain?”
When Hu Tianshuang said what he said, more than half of the people in the venue nodded slightly in agreement. Many officials have a small ledger in their hearts. They know how long their term is. If they can't make any achievements during this term, I'm afraid they will die.
You will miss the opportunity for promotion. Three or four years may not be a big deal for the development of a city, but for an official who is eager to make progress, it is indeed an unbearable long time.
"Chuanming, please tell me your opinion." Rao Ronggen turned to Shen Chuanming and said. Shen Chuanming is the deputy mayor in charge of industry and the only person who has dealt with Qin Hai. His opinion is obviously more important.
Shen Chuanming thought for a while and said: "Qin Hai, the president of the Chemical Materials Group, is a young man in his early 20s. I have dealt with him. He gave me two impressions. The first is that he has a tough attitude. The second is that he has a tough attitude.
The second is more reasonable."
"Aren't these two points a bit contradictory?" Chen Ziqiang asked with a smile.
Shen Chuanming shook his head and said: "There is no contradiction at all. When I say he is reasonable, I mean that unlike some other investors, he will not use his position to force us to provide him with preferential conditions that exceed the standard. , based on this alone, I can say that he is a more reasonable person."
"Well, this is indeed rare." Rao Ronggen commented.
"To say he is tough means that once he is determined on something, he will continue to do it firmly. Even if he faces pressure from certain aspects, he will not change his original intention." Shen Chuanming said.
"Is there any example?" Rao Ronggen asked.
"I once had some small disputes with him." Shen Chuanming said. Next, he briefly introduced to everyone the original struggle with Qin Hai over the salary issue of retired workers. Of course, he would not say He did not explain how he succumbed to Qin Hai, but rather said with great style that out of the need to attract investment, he finally chose to respect Qin Hai's opinion.
Everyone knows what kind of person Shen Chuanming is. This deputy mayor who calls himself a young man has always been too high-minded, so there is no possibility of him taking the initiative to respect others. Since he said he accepted Qin Hai's opinion was obviously under tremendous pressure. And the person who was able to put pressure on Shen Chuanming did fit the label of "tough".
"If Qin Hai is such a person, it would be a bit difficult to handle." Rao Ronggen hesitated. He originally thought that since Qin Hai regarded Jintang as an important base, if the Jintang city government proposed to him He would probably satisfy some requests out of the interest of calming things down. But from what Shen Chuanming said, Qin Hai was quite stubborn on issues of principle. If Jintang made some unreasonable demands, he might actually comply. This little ancestor was so angry that he ran away.
"Mayor Shen, you just said that the purpose of Qin Hai's dispute with you was to pay pensions to the retired workers of Jinnan Factory?" Chen Ziqiang asked.
Shen Chuanming nodded: "Yes, and as far as I know, since his people took over these chemical plants, the pensions of retired workers in each plant have never been in arrears, which is worthy of praise. "
Chen Ziqiang nodded and said, "This is easy to handle."
Rao Ronggen's eyes lit up and he asked: "Zi Qiang, what do you think is easy to do?"
Chen Ziqiang smiled and said: "Judging from this incident, this Qin Hai should be a person who is very enthusiastic about public welfare. Otherwise, why would he have a conflict with Mayor Shen for a group of retired workers? It doesn't sound good. , he annexed Jinnan Factory, and he could have ignored these retired workers, and others had nothing to say. But he did not do so, but ensured that the pensions of each factory were paid in full, which shows that this person is passionate about public welfare. ."
"But what does this have to do with what we are talking about now?" Liu Xiangyang asked in surprise as he did not react.
Chen Ziqiang said: "As long as a person has weaknesses, he can be broken through. Since Qin Hai is so enthusiastic about public welfare, let's create an opportunity for him to do public welfare." (To be continued...)
