Chapter 1303 Situation

Chapter 1303 Situation

The weather in Longcheng in October is really weird. The sun was shining brightly yesterday and the temperature was frighteningly hot. But after just one night, the northwest wind brought the winter cold to every corner of the city.

When he got up in the morning, Zhao Jianhui was still wearing the same clothes he wore yesterday. Unexpectedly, when he got in the car and saw the driver, Lao Wang, wearing a jacket, he realized that the weather today was a bit cold.

Looking at the gray buildings flying back outside the car window, Zhao Jianhui couldn't help but shook his head. This is the color of the city in winter, right? If it weren't for the green leaves on the branches on the roadside twitching and shaking in the wind, looking so desolate, it would really make people think that it is winter now.

When entering the provincial party committee compound, Zhao Jianhui saw Li Shuyun standing in front of the car, and Zhao Jianhui nodded to her.

This is a lesbian in her fifties. The two of them were familiar with each other when they were members of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. At that time, Zhao Jianhui was the deputy minister of the Ministry of Supervision, and Li Shuyun was the deputy director of the General Office. She has always behaved in a calm and gentle manner, and even Zhao Jianhui did not expect that she really has a bit of a go-getter style.

Since taking office as the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, Li Shuyun took people to Universiade City and did not come back for more than ten days. The Discipline Inspection Commission office building is on the south side of the Provincial Party Committee office building, but Zhao Jianhui has not seen Li Shuyun since then. I wonder if something happened when she came back this time?

"Secretary Zhao, you don't have time now? I have something to report to you..." Before he finished his thoughts, Li Shuyun came over and said softly next to Zhao Jianhui.

Zhao Jianhui nodded slightly: "Let's go upstairs together and come to my office to talk."

Entering the office, Secretary Xiao Liu quickly stood up, followed the two people in and poured some tea. Then he said softly: "Secretary, the minutes of yesterday's meeting have been printed and will be placed on your desk. Still waiting..."

This is a young man in his late twenties, tall, wearing a pair of glasses, with a fair complexion and side parting. He looks like an intellectual at first glance. Xiao Liu's name is Liu Ming. He graduated from a master's degree and was assigned to work in the provincial party committee last year. Cheng Ting followed Zhao Jianhui's requirements to select a secretary and weighed the qualities. Only this young man was suitable.

Zhao Jianhui nodded, secretary Liu Ming walked out and gently closed the door.

Yesterday, Zhao Jianhui summoned officials from the Development Research Center of the Hedong Provincial Government to hold a symposium, mainly to discuss the current and future economic situation of Hedong Province and broaden ideas for the next development.

Due to the current instability and increasing uncertainties in the world economy, there are also some contradictions and problems that need to be resolved in the current economic operation of Hedong. The downward pressure on the economy is increasing and may bottom out sharply again.

Hedong Province is the main supply base of domestic energy raw materials. Compared with the national operation situation, Hedong Province's industrial structure has formed outstanding characteristics: large fluctuations, slow operation, etc.

Since the world financial crisis in 2008, Hedong's economic performance has basically maintained a rebound trend. However, as the global external environment is difficult to improve and the domestic growth foundation is not yet solid, Hedong's current economic downward pressure has further increased, and GDP growth has declined for five consecutive quarters.

After Zhao Jianhui learned about this situation, how could he not be anxious? After you take over, you can't have a situation where a large number of employees are laid off, right? If that was really the case, I would resign and get out without anyone else telling me.

Some cadres at the Development Research Center believe that this trend is similar to the trend under the influence of the 2008 world financial crisis and deserves a hundredfold vigilance. If effective measures are not taken, we cannot rule out the possibility that economic growth will bottom out significantly during the year.

According to comprehensive analysis, most economic indicators in Hedong are higher than the national average, but it ranks low in central China. Judging from the three major demands of investment, consumption and net exports, the growth rate is generally lower than expected, with a larger year-on-year decline. Among them, because the economic trends of the world's major economies are not optimistic, Hedong's foreign trade has also been greatly affected. In the first eight months of this year, Hedong's import and export experienced a negative growth of 22.7%. From the perspective of the three major industries of coal, coke, and electricity, insufficient effective market demand has also led to weak economic growth in Hedong. Among them, since last year, coal demand has weakened and prices have shown a downward trend. The coal inventory in Qinhuangdao Port has been close to 9.41 million tons in 2008. There was a slight increase in the first quarter, but the comprehensive selling price of coal in May also dropped by 94 yuan year-on-year, indicating a decline in industry profitability.

In addition, since this year, Hedong's coking industry has also experienced a decline in both volume and price, and losses have continued to expand. In the first eight months of this year, the entire coking industry suffered a net loss of 5.9 billion yuan, which was the most serious loss-making industry among the major industrial industries in Hedong. There are no statistics for the nine and twelve months, but it is estimated that the situation will not be optimistic.

At the same time, power generation and electricity consumption in Hedong are also in a "tepid" state. It is expected that with the arrival of peak winter, power demand may increase, which will play a stabilizing role in industrial growth.

It can be seen that the main factors affecting the economic operation of Hedong have not yet shown signs of improvement, contradictions are accumulating and gradually being exposed, and the downward pressure on the economy is gradually increasing.

The final conclusion of economic experts is that the operating conditions of these industries also serve as a warning to the whole country and deserve serious study and treatment. At present, it is urgent to prevent the economic trend from declining.

Zhao Jianhui shook his head repeatedly in disbelief. Can it serve as a warning to the whole country? It sounds very good, but why is Hedong Province taking the lead? It doesn’t matter if you don’t win this first place.

Chen Hongsheng, vice president of Hedong University and economic expert, put forward four suggestions to prevent economic decline:

The first is to align with macro-control policies and accelerate the construction of pilot zones for comprehensive transformation and reform. Actively connect and communicate with the National Development and Reform Commission and other relevant ministries and commissions to strive for early approval of the "Overall Economic Transformation Plan" and promote the preparation of supporting implementation plans, implementation methods and related supporting work for the "Overall Economic Transformation Plan"; coordinate and cooperate with relevant departments to promote land, Institutional and mechanism innovation in key areas and key links such as finance, taxation, and finance will be strengthened to strengthen factor support and policy guarantees; launch benchmark projects for transformation and comprehensive reform and their preferential policies, and propose specific measures to accelerate the construction of benchmark projects.

The second is to accelerate the implementation of projects and the construction of large projects and strengthen investment. Further innovate investment policies, optimize the investment and development environment, increase industrial investment, accelerate the implementation of large-project-driven strategies, transform and upgrade traditional industries, develop emerging strategic industries and high-tech industries, accelerate project implementation and reserve large projects; departments at all levels It is necessary to set up work promotion teams one by one according to the division of responsibilities, take effective measures to find out the project situation, and effectively promote the project to ensure the effectiveness of annual fixed asset investment in stimulating economic growth.

The third is to thoroughly implement consumption-promoting policies and vigorously cultivate new consumption patterns. Comprehensively implement policies to promote consumption such as "energy-saving home appliances", constantly improve specific measures to promote consumption, encourage the development of modern circulation methods such as chain operations and logistics distribution, and actively carry out special product promotion activities; promote the construction of pilot projects for the circulation system of fresh agricultural products, and improve urban and rural areas circulation network; conduct pilot projects for renewable resource recycling and housekeeping service systems to expand circular consumption; encourage and promote credit consumption, cultivate and develop new consumption models, and strive to enhance the role of consumption in driving economic growth.

The fourth is to step up the introduction of support policies to support small and medium-sized enterprises, small and micro enterprises, and private enterprises. Understand in detail the gap in corporate capital needs, working capital turnover, etc., effectively reduce the burden on enterprises, increase financing guarantee support, and continue to implement the pilot policy of financing guarantee subsidies for small and medium-sized enterprises; accelerate the refinement of preferential policies in finance, land, and other aspects to ease corporate If there are difficulties in financing and land use, increase financial support; further strengthen the construction of the public service system and improve service content; support and encourage the development of innovative, entrepreneurial, labor-intensive small and medium-sized, small and micro, and private enterprises.

Regarding the above four points, Zhao Jianhui believes that they are quite reasonable. However, economic development was not his specialty. Zhao Jianhui did not dare to say anything at the time, but he asked the general office to print the minutes of the meeting and send a copy to all members of the Standing Committee, so that he could think about it carefully.

In the current position, there is a tendency not to dare to speak. Sometimes a few simple words may not cause any kind of reaction in the province.

Let's take what happened when I went to my teacher Mi Jianguo's country that day. Wasn't it because I was a little happy to see the teacher in the guest house and chatted a little intimately with Mi Jianguo in front of some people? Originally this was human nature, but why did the people below make it look like that?

After all, Teacher Mi was not confused. He said in front of him that those cupboards, cabinets, large LCD TVs and other items were all brought over by the director of the guest house for show.

Let’s not say whether it was the director of the guest house’s intention or whether there were other people’s opinions in it, but this matter reminded me seriously that there are some things that I can’t say nonsense now, especially when it comes to economic policies. In just one sentence, it may waste people and money and make many people hungry.

"Secretary Zhao, when I come back this time, I want to ask you for policy support..." Just as he thought of this, Li Shuyun said this next to him, pulling Zhao Jianhui out of his thoughts, and asked with a wry smile: "You are a member of the Standing Committee, Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, is there anything else you can’t decide?”

"Secretary Zhao, are you the top leader in Hedong Province?" Li Shuyun smiled and reached out to smooth the short hair hanging in front of her eyes. The style seemed indescribably elegant. "The case in Dayun City involves quite a few cadres. Most of them are at the department level, and a few are at the department level. I need your decision before I can take action. You have just taken office... I still listen to you. Please give instructions..."

What Li Shuyun was thinking, although she didn't say it clearly in her words, the meaning was self-evident.
