Facts have proved that people still don't talk big, otherwise they will be slapped in the face every minute.

Two months after 2011, the jatropha project in Jin Province, a joint venture between Jiagu and PetroChina, is still in the approval stage.

The difficulties faced by the new project are beyond Qi Zheng's imagination.

First of all, jatropha is a poisonous plant, and the widespread cultivation of jatropha is not universally accepted – Australia has banned jatropha in part because it is so toxic that it can harm people and animals. Especially in the north, where jatropha trees have not been seen before, people do not know enough about them.

In addition, what is the adaptability of large-scale artificial planting in Jin Province, which is reasonably not suitable for planting jatropha trees? Will it really produce the economic benefits estimated in the declaration plan? Will it have a bad impact on the local ecological environment......

In short, a series of arguments made the project stuck in the approval stage of the National Development and Reform Commission.

The senior officials of the Linfen Municipal Party Committee, who had sworn that they would get the approval soon, were embarrassed to see Qi Zheng.

But in fact, Qi Zheng did not blame the Jin Provincial Government. After all, the good government relations between Jijiagu Group and PetroChina could not promote the rapid implementation of the project, which can only show that the project is indeed quite controversial.

However, in other aspects, Qi Zheng was a little dissatisfied.

The project is still under approval, but some pre-work can be started. However...... The relevant pre-work was also not carried out satisfactorily.

For example, land acquisition, such as manual recruitment......

In this regard, Zhang Zehong, who "returned to his hometown", said with a wry smile: "You know, this is the current situation in Jin Province. ”

In a word, it is difficult to develop high-tech industries, and it is even more difficult to develop high-tech industries in Shanxi Province.

Compared with coal mining, it is not easy for other industries in Jin Province to make money, especially high-tech industries, which do not contribute much to the economic growth of Jin Province - you can make money by digging coal, who will work hard to innovate?

Qi Zheng shook his head and said: "It is said that the richer the resources, the more likely it is to suffer from the 'resource curse', but I didn't expect it to have such a big impact on the concept of the locals......"

The impact is so great that the recruitment of woodland workers in Jiagu Province is not unpopular, but there is a considerable gap from Jiagu's recruitment plan.

Zhang Zehong sighed: "This is the impact that has accumulated over the decades. For most rural areas of our province, the road to higher education is long, expensive, and not necessarily high after graduation, and there may be a risk of being far from home. ”

"The coal mine in front of me is in full swing, the income is not low, and there is no need to pay attention to very advanced technology, so finding a coal mine at the door to earn money seems to be a better way out. Anyway, going to school is also to find a job, so it is better to study for a few years and go directly to the mine to work. ”

Zhang Zehong was also born in the countryside, and his concept of fellow villagers could not be clearer.

He is the best example, he can be regarded as a highly educated person, but because of the low added value of the coal mining industry in Jin Province, the labor force required is mostly low-educated labor, resulting in a highly educated labor force like him is not easy to find a job in the province, so he can only go outside the province, resulting in a brain drain.

"Okay, the vision of the farmers is not to be said for the time being, but the managers are not necessarily more far-sighted than the farmers......" Qi Zheng pouted again.

This is the progress of land acquisition at the Jiagu Jatropha base, which dragged on, and the efficiency once again opened Qi Zheng's eyes.

It should be said that looking at Jiagu's experience in dealing with the grassroots for so many years, the work efficiency of grassroots managers in various places is actually half a catty. However, it is extremely rare for a large project that the top leaders of the provincial and municipal party committees are extremely concerned about to deal with so carelessly.

This is a manifestation of an extremely unimportant attitude!

Zhang Zehong spread his hands and said: "The so-called family has a mine, and it can easily complete the GDP assessment target, so why bother to cultivate those industries that can only obtain long-term benefits?"

"That's why the top management is quite far-sighted and can be prepared for danger in times of peace. Qi Zheng thought about it and commented unceremoniously: "But there is obviously no awareness of this below...... I don't think the coal industry will wake up until the moment comes to 'move the knife'. ”

Zhang Zehong nodded and said softly: "Actually, I only hope that our bioenergy project in Jiagu can give our parents and fellow villagers one more choice when the coal industry really 'moves the knife'." ”

"I hope that the energy forest construction implemented by Jiagu in Jin Province can benefit more people and bring them a different life......

Qi Zheng patted him on the shoulder wordlessly.

The family has a mine but is not wealthy, which is not a joke in Jin Province.

If it weren't for the specific figures, it would be hard for Qi Zheng to believe that the poor counties in Jin Province would account for half of the county-level administrative districts in the province.

But this "poverty" is different from the other "poverty".

According to Zhang Zehong, many impoverished counties in the province are not simply short of money, at least they are not poor in terms of electricity and durable consumer goods, and the problem of out-of-school children in the compulsory education stage is not serious; however, water resources and agricultural production have suffered serious damage due to coal mining, resulting in very poor living conditions and damage to the health of local residents.

For example, what Qi Zheng saw in the mining area near Zhang Zehong's hometown was that the land had collapsed and the village had become a "hanging village"; the farmland had collapsed, agricultural production had been destroyed, the large-scale collapse would also lead to landslides and other geological disasters, which would further exacerbate soil erosion, and the damaged geological conditions would cause the farmers' houses to be damaged and uninhabitable......

-- Behind the fact that Jin Province has made a lot of money from coal is the goaf area of more than 5,000 square kilometers, of which more than 2,940 square kilometers are serious geological disaster areas, and new subsidence areas formed at a rate of 94 square kilometers per year......

Zhang Zehong's idea of wanting to make some changes for his hometown is not too much.

As he jokingly said, instead of allowing a lot of low-quality coal resources to be mined to destroy the environment, it is better to plant jatropha trees cultivated in Jiagu and "turn coal into bioenergy".

Thinking of this, Qi Zheng stopped complaining.

He rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Didn't Senior Officer Song say that they would do their best to escort the project during the negotiation? Anyway, now they can't make much effort in the project review, so it is better to rectify the service environment!"

Zhang Zehong blinked: "You mean ......"

"Sue the complaint!" Qi Zheng said as a matter of course: "Now that the project has not really landed, I think the high-level will not hesitate to show sincerity." ”

Zhang Zehong suddenly, thought about it, and smiled: "That's right, anyway, the service attitude of the grassroots can't be worse now, and I'm not afraid of offending people." Moreover, in the long run, if we want to have a smooth layout in Jin Province, we also need Liwei. ”

is worthy of being the boss of the public relations department, that is, transparent.

Zhang Zehong thought about it again, and when he returned to his hometown, the project did not work, but it first caused the grassroots rectification, which can be regarded as "high-profile".
