Volume III Section 12 Pressure, Determination

A Santana and a Peugeot 505 station wagon slowly drove out of Jinxi Hotel and headed straight for National Highway 316.

From Handu to Wanzhou, take the national highway of 316,611 kilometers, passing through the two cities of Anxiang and Yunzhou, the road conditions are average, but Anxiang and Yunzhou are mostly mountainous and hilly, the road is twisting and turning, and the speed cannot be raised, so generally the cadres of Wanzhou and Yunzhou come to Handu for a meeting, and they need to come one day in advance.

Ming Yongchang leaned back in the chair and asked for a long time: "Xiangyang, how do you feel?"

"Secretary Lin seems to be quite gentle, I heard that he is from Anxiangxiang Town, but the accent is completely inaudible. ”

Guo Xiangyang stroked his chin, took out a cigarette, handed one to Ming Yongchang, and then threw it to Qing Zegao in the front passenger seat, three smoking guns lit the cigarette and smoked.

"Yes, I heard that Secretary Lin University studied at our Handong Normal College, and it was called Wanzhou Teachers College at that time. Qing Zegao also answered, "I asked Sha Zhengyang about Secretary Lin's situation, and I felt that he didn't seem to know much about Secretary Lin's living habits, but he just said that Secretary Lin came here alone, and his family would not go to Wanzhou." ”

"Well, what do you think of Sha Zhengyang?"

Ming Yongchang naturally didn't have much thought to figure out Lin Chunming, and when they worked together in the future, they would definitely have a lot of contact, and Lin Chunming was the secretary, and his future work would mainly revolve around him, but this too young Sha Zhengyang made him a little uncertain.

"Secretary-General, this Sha Zhengyang is too young, isn't he? Twenty-five?

He and Qing Zegao are both at the same level, but he is fifty years old this year, and Qing Zegao is fifty-one, and the comparison between the two is too unpleasant.

"Handu is a sub-provincial city, we can't compare, Handu Economic Development Zone is a deputy department-level unit, a deputy director is at the department level, and the director of the office is also at the deputy department level, but this Sha Zhengyang is indeed too young, and I don't know what the situation is. Ming Yongchang shook his head.

Sha Zhengyang feels quite mature and sophisticated, and he doesn't talk much, but he is very careful. Qing Zegao groaned, "I handed him the address book, he looked at the time from last year, and asked me if there were any changes in the personnel on these address books, and I had some, and he asked me to mark out which ones had changed." ”

"Oh?" Ming Yongchang's expression moved slightly, this detail showed that this person was very meticulous and thoughtful.

I also briefly asked him about the situation, and he introduced it himself, and he said that he used to work in Yintai County, and served as the deputy mayor and deputy director of the county development zone management committee. Guo Xiangyang knew what Ming Yongchang wanted to know, but now he could only listen to the other party's self-introduction in a hurry.

"Oh, he's been working in the township, he's been working for a few years. Ming Yongchang was even more surprised.

This guy is only twenty-four or five years old, how did he climb to the level of deputy director? He also served as the deputy mayor of a town and the deputy director of a county-level development zone?

Ming Yongchang has always wondered if this is Lin Chunming's former secretary, probably working in the Handu Municipal Party Committee Office, so he started very high, and then got a deputy department level, but he didn't expect to start from the township, how many years has he worked?

"He said, graduated from Hanchuan University in 90, three years. Guo Xiangyang smiled bitterly, "I can't even ask deeply, even if I am a secretary to the provincial leaders, it probably won't be so fast, right?"

"It's so interesting. Ming Yongchang became more and more curious, this Sha Zhengyang really successfully aroused his interest, and his two colleagues were probably very shocked and curious.

If you want to say that he came down as a secretary to Secretary Ma of the Provincial Party Committee, I believe it. Qing Zegao also laughed at himself: "How could Secretary Ma's secretary go to Handu Economic Development Zone to be the director of the office? ”

"Forget it, let's not discuss this, since Secretary Lin has no more explanation, let's make a report to Mayor Feng and Secretary Tang after we go back, and wait for Secretary Lin." ”

Ming Yongchang decisively interrupted this topic, and began to close his eyes and recuperate, there are still eight or nine hours of driving on the road, one meal in Anxiang at noon, one meal in Yunzhou for dinner, and eight or nine o'clock in the evening to get home.

*****

Seeing off Ming Yongchang and his party, Lin Chunming and Sha Zhengyang did not leave immediately, but walked around the small garden behind Jinxi Hotel.

"I told Ming Yongchang that you are the deputy director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, and you are also in charge of my secretary work for the time being, and strive to set up a suitable secretary for me within a month. ”

From the first moment Lin Chunming came into contact with Ming Yongchang, he had already begun to take the initiative to enter the role of the secretary of the municipal party committee.

"Okay. Sha Zhengyang also expected this arrangement for a long time, it is impossible for him to serve as a secretary for a long time, Lin Chunming does not need a secretary like himself, he has more important responsibilities.

Lin Chunming is not familiar with the situation in Wanzhou, so many situations should come from his own side, especially the need for a relatively objective perspective to understand the situation of the entire Wanzhou City, which is the most urgent need at present.

What Lin Chunming needs most now is to grasp and understand the development of the social and economic undertakings of the entire Wanzhou City in the shortest possible time, and the most important of these is to have a relatively clear grasp and understanding of the situation of the cadres in Wanzhou City.

Of course, Lin Chunming must have his own way to understand and familiarize, but he must also help him grasp the situation from another angle.

"The next step is to understand the familiar situation, Zhengyang, you have to think about it, as comprehensive as possible to come up with a comprehensive information, I believe that there should be this kind of thing in the Wanzhou Municipal Party Committee Office, but I am worried that on the paper article, I may not be able to see some of the things I want to see,......"

Lin Chunming did not hide his worries.

"The situation in Wanzhou has not been very good in recent years, and there are some arches within the team, which greatly restricts the development of Wanzhou's economy. I have checked, since 1987, Wanzhou's economic growth rate has been ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the province, and it is also uncharacteristic in industrial cultivation, and the growth rate of both the per capita disposable income of urban residents and the per capita net income of farmers is lower than the provincial average,......"

Lin Chunming also obviously realized that he was not good as the secretary of the municipal party committee, and it is estimated that he should have a general understanding of the situation in Wanzhou yesterday and felt the huge pressure.

"Wanzhou's population base is too large, especially the agricultural population, is one of the few ordinary prefecture-level cities in the country with a registered population of more than 10 million, but from the perspective of the population of the central urban area alone, not even 10 percent, which shows that Wanzhou's urbanization and industrialization process are extremely backward, a large number of labor force either stay in the countryside and do nothing, or go to the coastal areas and big cities to become cheap labor in other regions, this situation is particularly unfavorable to the long-term development of the central and western regions. ”

Sha Zhengyang hit the nail on the head, Rao is Lin Chunming has already been accustomed to Sha Zhengyang's endless novel views and remarks, but he is still a little shocked, because this point of view is obviously not something that can be taken out at once, but a point of view put forward by analyzing the current situation in Wanzhou.

In fact, this is Lin Chunming's overestimation of Sha Zhengyang, this kind of argument can be seen everywhere on the Internet twenty years later, but when it appeared in front of Lin Chunming at this time, it seemed a little profound and incisive.

"Speaking of which, Wanzhou's industrial development is too slow. Lin Chunming's eyebrows jumped with a fierce aura, and the pressure was very high, but his tenacity under gentleness was even more prominent.

"Wanzhou must develop the industrial economy, in this area, Wanzhou can make a difference, and it needs to achieve breakthroughs as soon as possible in some areas. ”

Sha Zhengyang can feel Lin Chunming's momentum of not admitting defeat, this is the most basic quality of being a landlord official, if he is afraid of difficulties and hardships, and wants to make a detour or retreat when he encounters some difficulties and troubles, then this main leader is unqualified.

If there are conditions, if there are no conditions, you must also go on if you don't have conditions, what you are talking about is this spiritual momentum, and if you don't have this spiritual momentum, then don't want to make achievements.

For the 14 cities in Hanchuan Province, Handu and Jiazhou need to consider the reasonable development of the secondary and tertiary industries, what other cities need to do is to go all out to develop the secondary industry, to maximize the local digestion of the surplus labor force in the countryside, to promote their local employment and income, and to avoid them from leaving their hometowns to work in the coastal areas, which is the most important thing. ”

At this point, Sha Zhengyang felt particularly deeply.

Party committees and governments at all levels now feel that a large number of laborers have gone to the coastal areas to work in the coastal areas, which can bring in a large amount of wage income and indeed have a marked effect on raising the net income of the rural population.

But in the long run, most of these young and middle-aged laborers are the lowest level of labor in the coastal areas, and most of them will not be accepted by these cities, and both housing prices and education force them to become passers-by.

When a decade or two later, when they are left with old and sick bodies, they have to return to the hometown where they were born and raised.

This does not take into account the huge negative effects of the massive outflow of these people to the local society, the problems of left-behind, empty nesters, and the growth of children, which will greatly plague party committees and governments at all levels in the coming decades.

It can be said that the central and western regions are continuously contributing to the coastal areas, whether in terms of various energy resources, mineral resources or labor, which is largely due to the lack of sufficient infrastructure, talent strategy and industrial policies to support the development of secondary and tertiary industries.
