Liu Bo chuckled. He had heard a lot about Hu Fei and knew that this guy's brain was very useful. A casual suggestion could get twice the result with half the effort.
“Our tourism resources in Wuling are really good.”
Hu Fei sighed softly, "Moreover, the development has been relatively complete in recent years, but its popularity is still not high. The number of tourists can definitely rise to another level."
"I have thought about increasing publicity before, and I also thought of a promotion plan and reported it to the mayor."
"Oh, what kind of plan?"
Liu Bo was immediately interested. Publicity and reporting was his job as the Propaganda Minister of the Municipal Party Committee. He wanted to promote Wuling's reputation. For him, he was spending the country's money to gain his political achievements, and at the same time, he could also promote Wuling's tourism reputation.
Playing it out is naturally a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.
"My plan is to advertise on CCTV, and also before the weather forecast after the news broadcast. This is the best effect. Take the promotional video we made this time when we went to Jinling to attract investment.
Our most beautiful scenery in Wuling is displayed in front of Chinese people all over the country and even around the world, and I believe the effect will be very, very good."
Hu Fei chuckled, "It's just that the cost is indeed very high."
"Ah, go to CCTV to advertise, and it's prime time!"
Liu Bo's eyes widened in astonishment, "Oh my god, how much does this cost? Haven't you heard? The advertisements above cost tens of millions per second. How can we have so much money in our city?"
"
"Minister Liu, don't be anxious, just listen to me slowly."
Hu Fei chuckled and said, "There is no way to solve the money problem."
"Oh, do you have a way to solve the funding problem?"
Liu Bo was stunned when he heard this, and then he laughed, "I knew you, Mayor Hu, had the best idea. If this thing really comes to pass, I'll treat you to a drink!"
"The funding issue is indeed a big problem. Our city's funds are already very tight. Otherwise, there would be no need to attract investment for this sky bridge project."
Hu Fei sighed, "However, if we don't have enough funds, we can squeeze out some of it. Then this will be a disguised advertisement for Jiangnan Province. We can ask for a part of it from the province."
"But that's not enough."
Liu Bo was slightly disappointed, "You should also be aware of the financial situation in our province. The finances are not very rich, and the funds in the hands of the governor are very tight. However, if you run away,
Maybe I can get some money, but the amount is still not enough, it’s too far off.”
"Besides, it's impossible for the province to allocate a lot of money to us for this matter, otherwise other states and cities would definitely have objections."
"Minister Liu, we need to open our minds."
Hu Fei chuckled and said, "Jiangnan Province is not enough. We can work with tourist attractions in other provinces to do it together. We will jointly invest to buy prime time advertisements, and then each company will contribute part of the funds. I believe they will be very happy.
When the time comes, we will ask the leaders of the National Tourism Administration to come forward and coordinate with the relevant departments.”
"From the perspective of the central government, this is to present the most beautiful aspects of each province in the country to the global audience, and it is also in line with the requirements of the central government."
Liu Bo nodded, with a hint of admiration on his face. Hu Fei, this guy, is indeed well-deserved. If such a good idea can be implemented, he, the Propaganda Minister of the Municipal Party Committee, will have made a great contribution!
Of course, this idea is a brilliant one, but it is not easy to implement. You need to contact relevant departments in brother provinces, lobby the leaders of the National Tourism Administration, etc.
Of course, considering Hu Fei's identity, these shouldn't be very difficult.
However, will Hu Fei step forward to take over this matter? After all, it takes so much effort for Hu Fei but does not bring any benefits. Only a fool would do it.
"Furthermore, you also know that I work in economics, and I am very concerned about international economics and finance. There are already signs of a financial crisis in the United States. Once it affects Europe, it will definitely be global.
financial crisis."
Hu Fei continued, "Once it spreads to Asia, our country will definitely be greatly affected. A sharp decline in exports is inevitable. The three carriages that drive our country's economic growth are investment, consumption, and exports."
"In the event of an economic crisis, if exports shrink significantly, this carriage will be lame. If we want to maintain economic growth, we must find ways to use the other two carriages, and stimulating residents' consumption will become the most effective means."
The more Liu Bo listened, the stronger the look of admiration on his face became. Although he had long heard that Hu Fei was good at grasping the economy, he always thought it was flattery. Only when he heard Hu Fei say this today did he realize that Hu Fei was indeed well-deserved.
Moreover, there are not many deputy mayors who don't care about their official position, don't analyze the ideas of provincial leaders, and pay more attention to the international and domestic economic and financial situation.
Hu Fei didn't notice Liu Bo's expression, and kept talking to himself, "Minister Liu, you also know that our country's residents' savings are the highest in the world, so once an economic crisis occurs, the country will find ways to promote residents' consumption, because
This is the most direct and effective way without printing money."
"At this time, if we go to CCTV to advertise and promote Wuling's tourist attractions, it must be in line with the country's next policy. I believe that relevant parties will definitely support it."
"Letting people go out to travel and relax, and at the same time promote consumption, will benefit everyone. How can the relevant parties disagree with our approach?"
"Mayor Hu, what you said is so good. I have seen how powerful you are today. Your perspective on problems has risen to such a high level. I'm afraid there are not many in the country."
Liu Bo gave a thumbs up on his right hand, "By the way, I want to report this matter to the provincial party committee leader. However, you also know that I don't understand economic matters. Can you help me write a report? After the matter is completed, I will
Please drink."
"That's no problem. I'll hurry up and report it to the relevant leaders of the provincial party committee first."
Hu Fei nodded, "I should have time when I go to Shencheng for inspection this time. I'll give it to you when I get back."
Although it is possible to be affected by the economic crisis, it may not be an opportunity for Wuling. Crisis, crisis, and danger contain opportunities.
Moreover, Liu Bo's words also reminded Hu Fei that he had not published an article for a long time. Maybe he could take this opportunity to write down these opinions and publish them in the newspaper. Although the royalties were not very high, it would be very helpful in improving his reputation.
helpful.
"Mayor Hu, thank you so much. How about we go for a drink tonight?"
Liu Bo was also very excited. Hu Fei said so much about the economic crisis, but not much about him. Although not much, it was an excellent opportunity for him to perform and he must seize it.
"I'm afraid I won't have time tonight. The children are all waiting for me. I have to report to the governor tomorrow, and I will leave for Shenzhen the day after tomorrow."
Hu Fei shook his head and said, "Let's do this. You can treat me to a drink when the matter is done."
Before he could finish his voice, his cell phone rang.
Hu Fei slowed down the car, took out his cell phone and took a look. His heart sank. The caller turned out to be Huang Shang.
