The city in front of us is indeed very dilapidated. There are of course newly built high-rise buildings, but they are not as large-scale as other cities. Therefore, the city is still dominated by dilapidation, and the sky looks gray because of this.
In addition, this city also gives people a chaotic feeling——
The roads in the city are narrow and crowded, with cars, pedestrians, rickshaws, and bicycles all mixed together, especially taxis, which actually stop in the middle of the road to pick up passengers.
There are rows of telephone poles on both sides of the city's roads. The wires on the telephone poles are messy and have become a temporary resting place for various birds.
The commercial facades on both sides of the road are also messy, and various billboards are hung randomly on both sides of the street, which adds to the messy feeling of the city...
Later, we went to the edge of the city and walked around. Most of these places were shantytowns. At the end of the city, there were no bustling streets and shining neon signs; at the end of the city, there were only dilapidated shantytowns, and only the weather-beaten
Life is a life of hardship; at the end of the city, there is a group of people like them, who live at the bottom of life.
I sighed in my heart: It should change, it must change...
He looked at the time and said, "Xiao Cui, let's go back and eat in the cafeteria."
He started to turn the car around.
In fact, I really want to find a specialty restaurant for dinner outside here, but I think that after all, I have just arrived here, and what I need more now is to communicate more with those people in the government team.
"Xiao Cui, are you a local?" I didn't say much at first, because I needed to see the city carefully and feel it slowly. But now it's different, this city is in my
I already have a basic overview in my mind.
"Yes. Mayor Feng." He replied.
"What do your parents do?" I asked again.
"My father works in a factory and my mother works at the Municipal People's Congress." He answered.
I nodded. The family structure in this city should be like this. At least one spouse of the couple is an employee of the factory. Then I asked: "Xiao Cui, let me ask you, you should know the people in your hometown better. Do you
What do they want the government to do most right now?"
He laughed "haha", "What else can ordinary people think about? Make more money and let their children study hard. They don't care much about government affairs."
I was stunned immediately, "Don't care? Why don't you care? The policies issued by the government have a great impact on the people?"
He replied: "Most of the people living here are old residents who have been here for decades. They came to this city when the factories were built. Everyone is used to the stable life now and does not seek anything special."
To be rich, as long as you can afford to eat, people here are very realistic. People who are unrealistic and want to make a fortune have gone to the provincial capital or the coast. Haha! Mayor Feng, what I am talking about is
To be honest, in fact, the only people who really care about what the government is doing are those who are officials, and the common people feel that they are far away from them."
After hearing what he said, I immediately believed it. Yes, this is the real situation. In the final analysis, people here have this concept: be content with the status quo.
In underdeveloped areas, the government's leading role in the economy is particularly important, because only with the government's intervention can local development plans be formulated, and then various government resources can be used to enforce them. So currently, Shangjiang
Judging from the city's situation, the government must take action immediately.
The government's leading role in the economy is very huge, because it can formulate development plans, and the indicators are broken down into various departments, and even into each enterprise. The government can use its public power to encourage enterprise investment, come forward to attract investment for enterprises, and can also use the public power in its hands to encourage enterprises to invest.
Blocking the market, affecting bank loans, formulating special preferential policies, supervising and inspecting the implementation of indicators, etc. can help a local economy develop towards the government's predetermined goals.
Of course, there is also a control issue here, because when the government-led economy develops to a certain extent, it will in turn undermine the continued development of the economy. After all, the government-led economy is rough and is also an act that interferes with the market, and a
Only with market regulation can local economies form truly fair competition and develop in a benign direction.
But this is the next step. Judging from the current situation in Shangjiang City, reform and development are the most urgent things at hand. The leaders in the province have also seen this, so they do everything to prevent and interfere with the reform and development of Shangjiang City.
You will pay the price for your actions, and only a fool would do such a thing.
I believe that Mayor Wen is not a fool, and he should be able to see this clearly better than anyone else. But I feel his problem: fear of difficulties.
This morning when I was in his office, he said two words to me: It’s difficult!
Yes, it must be difficult. But now for Secretary Chen, the only thing he has to do is to face the difficulties, because he has no retreat. To be precise, the organization arranged for him to come to Shangjiang City this time
There is only one purpose: to accept orders in times of danger.
To be honest, what our country lacks most today is leading cadres, and what is most indispensable are leading cadres. If you can’t do it, okay? If you leave, someone who can do it will take over.
When I arrived at the canteen, I immediately found several deputy mayors sitting at a table. Several dishes were already placed on the table, and several secretaries were adding food to the leaders. Secretary-General Lu was also sitting there when he saw me
After entering, he immediately gave up his seat and said, "Mayor Feng is here? Come and sit down."
I was not polite and immediately went to sit where he was sitting just now.
At this time, Mayor Wen smiled and said: "Ha! Our team happens to be at the same table. How about it? Let's have a drink?"
Mayor Yin, who was in charge of culture and health, immediately shouted, "Mayor Wen, I can't drink anymore. My stomach is still hurting now."
At this time, Mayor Huang, who was in charge of agriculture, immediately smiled and said jokingly: "That's because you saw our Mayor Feng is young and handsome, and you had to go and fight him three times. If there is no problem, it would be strange." Then he came over and smiled at him.
I said: "Mayor Feng, you are really charming. Our Mayor Yin seldom drinks alcohol on weekdays. Yesterday you knocked her over when you came here."
Everyone laughed. The staff of the city government nearby were also secretly laughing.
I smiled bitterly and said, "Why am I so charming? It's obviously because Secretary Chen and Mayor Wen took the lead in drinking last night."
Mayor Yin was also laughing, "Mayor Huang, if you talk nonsense like this, I will sue you in front of my sister-in-law."
Mayor Huang smiled and said, "Why are you suing me? That I like you too?"
At this time, Mayor Wen smiled and said: "Actually, our Mayor Huang was also very handsome when he was young. You see, he still has the shadow of a handsome boy now."
Mayor Yin smiled charmingly and said to Mayor Wen: "Mayor Wen, to be honest, in my eyes you are the most handsome."
Mayor Wen immediately choked and coughed before laughing and saying: "Xiao Yin, I can't bear your joke like this. I heard from comrades in the civil and health system that Mayor Yin is not a good critic of people.
You're so awesome, I didn't expect you to talk like this, why do I feel like you're not the one sitting here anymore?"
Everyone laughed again.
Now I have discovered that I guess these people usually like to joke like this on such occasions. But think about it, everyone wears the same face on weekdays and looks the same in conferences and small meetings. This is tiring enough.
That's right. After all, a place like the canteen is just a place to eat. There is no need to be so serious. Relaxing is a good way to relax. It can also make other people in the government feel the amiability of the leaders.
Approachable.
But those subordinates didn't dare to be presumptuous. At most, they just smiled quietly.
As a result, I still drank some wine at noon, including Mayor Yin. This is actually a rule in the officialdom: what the top leader says cannot be violated, even for small things in life like this. (To be continued)
