Chapter 641: Do Something Practical
Changping, the provincial capital of Jiangnan Province, is an old city. The city walls that were captured during the Revolution of 1911 are still well preserved. Needless to say, there are countless cultural relics from previous dynasties.
Running such an old city is actually quite troublesome. Needless to say, just talking about the renovation of the old city is enough to cause headaches for those in power.
The so-called old city reconstruction refers to the partial or overall step-by-step transformation and renewal of the entire material living environment of the old city in order to fundamentally improve its working, living, services, rest and other conditions. It not only reflects the development process of the city, but also reflects the urban spatial planning organization. As well as the improvement process of buildings and social welfare facilities, it also represents the material achievements and reflects the conditions of buildings and welfare facilities at that time.
Renovation of old cities is an ongoing process that depends on the development direction and extent of the city. Transform the urban planning structure and implement reasonable land zoning and urban land planning zoning within its administrative boundaries. Improving the urban environment requires taking comprehensive and interrelated measures to purify the atmosphere and water, reduce noise pollution, green and improve the use of open spaces.
To transform the old city, it is necessary to update and adjust the urban industrial layout, update or improve the urban road system, improve the urban living environment and organize large-scale construction of public service facilities to transform old neighborhoods into complete residential areas.
The current trend in the design of old city reconstruction plans is to add some closed satellite towns with complete structures and appropriate scales while maintaining the relative stability of the central city. Urban land is divided into some isolated functional areas, and the entire planning structure The development of the city relies on the expansion of the intersecting semi-radial ring system and the preparation of various open urban structures based on the transition to flexible zoning. The layout of the public service center is more diverse based on the specific conditions for improving the entire urban planning structure. combination plan.
Fan Heng was sitting in the car today and inadvertently discovered that with the rapid development of Changping's urban economy, it is urgent to carry out the reconstruction of the old city.
When he arrived at the Department of Finance, Director Ye Xuewen hurriedly greeted him and invited Fan Heng and others to the small conference room in the hall. Here, Secretary Lin Hao was listening to the work report of the Provincial Department of Finance. Several deputy The director and inspector are accompanying us.
After Fan Heng and Secretary Lin Hao met, they naturally exchanged a few polite words. Then Secretary Lin Hao picked up his work report on the provincial finance and said to Fan Heng with a smile, "The economic situation in the province this year is indeed very good. , although the adjustment of state-owned enterprises is not over yet, the textile industry, which is the leader of old industries, and the metallurgical industry, which has introduced foreign investment, have made a turnaround. The province's GDP has increased by more than 40%, which is higher than The national statistics are much higher.”
After listening to Secretary Lin Hao's words, Fan Heng smiled and said, "Actually, the province has suffered a lot of losses due to flood control this year. Otherwise, Jiangnan Province's economic achievements will be quite shocking."
Due to summer flood resistance,
The direct investment in the province has exceeded 5 billion yuan, and the indirect investment is even more. The most important point is that throughout the summer, due to the impact of flood control, many agricultural infrastructure constructions were delayed. This active flood discharge caused Jiangnan Province to bear losses of more than billions of yuan, and the total loss should be more than 20 billion yuan.
If the main industrial base of Jiangnan Province had not been greatly developed, this year's troubles alone would be enough to bankrupt the Jiangnan Provincial Government. How could there be any spare energy to help nearby provinces fight floods? And took the initiative to bear the economic losses that other provinces should bear?
Ye Xuewen, director of the Department of Finance, said, "If this momentum continues, next year or the year after next, our province will be able to enter the top three of the southeastern provinces. You know, last year, we were ranked ten. After."
Lin Hao said, "Governor Fan also said before that we should not only focus on GDP, but also pay attention to people's livelihood issues. I very much agree with this proposal. I suggest that there should be more investment in infrastructure construction next year. We need to increase investment in facilities that are convenient and beneficial to the people, and we can also invest more in medical security in villages and towns.”
"Secretary Lin Hao's suggestions will be fully taken into account in government work. In fact, I just came from the provincial government today and experienced several traffic jams. It seems that the issue of old city reconstruction in the provincial capital has to be brought up. It’s time to discuss the agenda,” Fan Heng said to everyone.
After hearing this, Director Ye Xuewen said, "It costs a lot of money to renovate the old city, and if we don't have a year or two, we may not see any results."
"I understand this situation." Fan Heng interrupted him and said, "When I was in Panshi, I also carried out the reconstruction of the old city, which was indeed quite troublesome. One of the most important reasons was the issue of demolition and compensation. , If this matter is done well, things will be much easier to handle.”
Everyone nodded. Although Changping has not yet carried out large-scale reconstruction of the old city, nearby provinces and cities are at the forefront. The contradictions arising from the reconstruction of the old city are also very clear. The biggest resistance in the reconstruction of the old city is demolition. The problem is that basically every city's transformation has gone through the process of forced demolition, which will inevitably cause a lot of material discussions and public complaints, so no one is willing to bring up this topic.
After the changes in the national real estate policy, various cities and towns have become much more enthusiastic about demolition issues. The benefits of forced demolition in the name of old city reconstruction are obvious, and the business opportunities and money contained in it are The benefits in terms of income are enough for any local government to make its GDP figures look better.
Therefore, when Fan Heng raised the topic of old city renovation, the first thing everyone thought of was that it seemed that Governor Fan was not exempt from the common practice and needed to make his already impressive political achievements even more brilliant.
Thinking of the rumor that Fan Heng is about to join the Standing Committee, which has been rumored for a long time, everyone feels that the authenticity and credibility of this news are very high.
However, the current urban situation in Changping is indeed very bad and has reached the point where it must be renovated. Some people have also raised this issue in the past few years. However, the province did not have the financial funds at that time, and the benefits involved in demolition were not easy. Solve it, so it is just a mention. It can be said that old city reconstruction is mentioned every year in provincial government meetings, but it is not put into actual action.
But now that there is the stimulus of real estate development, there are many people who want to do this, and in some local cities, it is said that many have already taken the lead.
"By the way, I almost forgot about the business -" Fan Heng patted his forehead and said to Secretary Lin Hao, "I came here to discuss with Secretary Lin Hao about carrying out anti-corruption warning education in the province. of."
"Oh, this matter needs to be studied carefully-" Secretary Lin Hao immediately became serious when he heard that this was a matter on his own territory, and then the two of them sat aside and discussed it carefully. .
Seeing the two big bosses going aside to discuss matters, Director Ye Xuewen of the Department of Finance came to Song Qing's side and asked with a smile, "Director Song, are Governor Fan going to take a step further?"
"How do I know this?" Song Qing replied with a smile, "You asked the wrong person. You asked the head of the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China for this. How can I know?"
Song Qing is now being treated at the deputy department level, so Ye Xuewen is right to call her Song Qing, especially since the boss Song Qing is working with is a member of the Politburo. When the tide rises, all boats will have an unlimited future, especially what Song Qing cannot stand now. Young!
For such a young deputy director, there are not many people in the country. In addition, Song Qing's current conditions completely fit the popular word "ignorant girl" in the official circles, and her future development prospects are naturally bright.
Even if Ye Xuewen is the actual director at the department level at this time, and it is also an important department like the Finance Department, he can't help but look at Song Qing seriously, and he can't underestimate her as a little girl.
Speaking of which, Ye Xuewen is still a little envious of Song Qing. She is about the same size as his own girl, and she is already at the deputy department level! My own girl is only a deputy section grader, so she is still relying on her own face.
There is no comparison between people.
Here, Lin Hao and Fan Heng also finished talking about things. Lin Hao said to Fan Heng, "It seems very likely that you will be elected to the Standing Committee. At this juncture, there is really no need to go to war. The old Urban reconstruction is a major event, and judging from past examples, it seems impossible to carry it out peacefully. In this case, it is better to be quiet than to move!"
Lin Hao's words were indeed spoken to Fan Heng out of personal friendship, and they were enough to show that the relationship between the two was extraordinary. After all, this kind of thing was still rumored, but in the hearts of the senior executives There will always be some opinions of his own in the meeting, and Secretary Lin Hao also has some backup, so he naturally knows that this matter is not a coincidence.
Fan Heng first expressed his gratitude to Secretary Lin Hao, and then said, "I also know that this matter is difficult to handle, but Changping's development is very fast, and the transformation of the old city has become an important factor restricting the city's development. If I don't handle it myself, It’s a big pity to leave it to my successor. Seeing that I don’t have much time to stay in Jiangnan Province, I must take advantage of this opportunity to do something practical for the people of the provincial capital, right?”
Lin Hao couldn't help but sigh with emotion after hearing this, "Probably what the senior management values is that you are willing to do practical things."
