Chapter 826 Construction Fund

There is no way to keep the matter of the construction fund secret, after all, Wang Yiping and Jiang Zhijun have to discuss with their respective members of the Standing Committee when they go back.

Shen Huai returned to the county, and soon after Qi Jingyao and Pan Zhiqiang officially took office, they also held a meeting of the county standing committee to discuss the establishment of the Huaihai government construction fund.

In this way, the Sinpu Development Group will mainly focus on promoting the infrastructure construction of Xiapu County, while the newly established Huaihai Government Construction Fund will promote the infrastructure construction of neighboring districts and counties, and the ultimate goal of these efforts is to ensure the development of the Huaihai Bay Economic Zone and ensure the core position of Xinpu Port in the Huaihai Bay Economic Zone.

Including the original construction of the Xinjin section of the Haiphong Highway and the advance that should be returned by the Xinjin County Government, this time it will also be transferred to the newly established Huaihai Government Construction Fund for management, which is also to further clarify the purpose and core task of the establishment of this government construction fund.

In terms of the specific division of labor among the members of the county standing committee, Qi Jingyao, deputy secretary of the county party committee, was in charge of the point-to-point assistance work uniformly arranged by the municipal party committee and government; while the preparation and specific implementation of the Huaihai government construction fund was still placed under the county government, and Shen Huai did not have so much energy involved, so Zhao Tianming, executive deputy county magistrate, was in charge.

Since the establishment of the construction fund, it is planned to allocate 200 million yuan from the newly increased fiscal and tax revenues in the first half of the year and inject it, and to allocate the second tranche of funds at the end of the year to bring the scale of the construction fund to 500 million yuan by the end of the year.

As soon as the news spread, it was also a stone that shook a thousand waves.

Last year, the expenditure of the city's financial accounts was just over one billion, and in addition to the capitation expenses and affairs expenses of the city-level administrative institutions, it was mainly inclined to Xicheng District. In addition to tax rebates and special allocations for various infrastructure projects, the city also took out hundreds of millions of funds last year to provide special subsidies to some municipal enterprises that moved to the Xipizha Industrial Park.

By this year, the development of Xinjin Port has become the top priority of the city's economic work, and the municipal finance has begun to tilt towards Xinjin County on a large scale. In the first half of the year, the Municipal Port Investment Group received a special allocation of 100 million yuan from the city to supplement the capital, which was actually used to expand the infrastructure investment of the Municipal Port Investment Group in Xinjin Port.

"Concentrating on a few major things" is also one of the major financial expenditures, but in Jiangyan and other counties, even the salaries of the personnel of government institutions and teachers and staff cannot be paid, and the finances that can be obtained from the city are even less than one-tenth of that of Xicheng and Xinjin.

The establishment of such a large-scale construction fund in Xiapu this time is almost to rebuild a city-port investment to support the infrastructure construction of neighboring districts and counties, and the disturbance will naturally not be small.

Although the city has also made a lot of efforts to help poor areas, it is bleak in comparison.

Guo Chengze was also embarrassed, and when he returned to the province for a meeting in early July, he had a rare opportunity to meet with Li Gu to exchange work, and he was also bitter:

"Don't look at me as I am now presiding over the work of the Donghua Municipal Government, but behind the scenes, everyone is saying that Shen Manzi is the real mayor of Donghua and the real God of Wealth in Donghua. In the past, the lower districts and counties were short of money, and they all ran to the city to ask for money and projects when they had nothing to do; now, fortunately, after the name of the Huaihai Bay Construction Fund was pulled out, the lower districts and counties threw the city aside and went to Xiapu County to ask for special funds and projects. The Xiapu County Government is now a little more lively than the city government......"

Li Gu also smiled bitterly and said: "In order to solve the problem of serious lack of infrastructure investment in the Huaihai Bay Economic Zone, some people in the province have proposed to set up such a special construction fund, but there is no money in the province." The early plan was to take 100 million yuan out and set up the framework of this fund first, who would have thought that Xiapu County would rush to do it, and suddenly planned to take 500 million yuan, then the province naturally can't mention this matter anymore - some people are discouraged. ”

Promoting the development of the Huaihai Bay Economic Zone is the top priority in Huaihai Province's economic work in the next few years.

Although Li Gu didn't say it thoroughly, Guo Chengze didn't know about it in advance, and he also knew that this matter might be secretly planned by Zhao Qiuhua's people, and it is estimated that Li Gu only learned about it recently.

It's just that Xiapu County has set up such a large-scale special construction fund all of a sudden, and Zhao Qiuhua naturally doesn't have the face to mention this matter again; otherwise, the province will set up a construction fund of the same nature, but the scale is far inferior, and I am afraid that my face will be swollen to the cities below.

Li Gu still didn't want Guo Chengze to contradict Shen Huai too sharply in the place, and continued:

"Now the province is really a little financially rich, except for Xiapu, Tangzha and other places, there are really not a few, Xiapu is doing this now, grabbed the jackpot, can not say that he is not, Secretary Zhong Limin in the provincial department economic meeting, but also specifically mentioned this matter. ”

"This is probably also meant to put pressure on the provincial government?" Mr. Kwok speculated.

Li Gu nodded, he had always had close contact with Shen Huai, and he also knew that Zhong Limin, the secretary of the provincial party committee, had not been in contact with Shen Huai until this time.

Ordinary people may say, how can anyone in the province violate the authority of the provincial party secretary?

However, the reality is always more complicated than the average person guesses (latest chapter).

Zhong Limin was transferred to Huaihai as the secretary of the provincial party committee as a balance faction, and the constraints were much greater than ordinary people imagined, so it was really not unimaginable for Zhong Limin to use some things to balance.

In this case, Li Gu guessed that Shen Huai would not take the initiative to stick to Zhong Limin's side.

Looking at the non-stop rain outside the window, Li Gu asked Guo Chengze again: "The economic data of Xiapu County in the first half of the year has come out?"

"At present, the city has very little authority over the county, and most of the data is reported by the county, and the city can verify it, but if there is a problem in the verification, there is no effective means ......of restraint," Guo Chengze said.

"This involves too much of a wide range of areas, and the province may have to make unified arrangements; if it is only aimed at the financial problems of Xiapu County, it will be more likely that the province will carry out a pilot project under the direct management of the province. Li Gu said.

Hearing Li Gu say this, Guo Chengze was even more speechless, if Xiapu is directly managed by the province, then Donghua City will have no say in Xiapu County in the future.

Although Guo Chengze also knew that Xu Pei and Li Gu might be more inclined to support the direct management of Xiapu by the province, as the mayor of Donghua, he also looked at the position of secretary of the municipal party committee.

Thinking of this, Guo Chengze also turned the conversation back to Li Gu's question just now, and said: "Xinpu Iron and Steel was basically running at full capacity at the beginning of the year, and the output value of the city's iron and steel industry reached almost 16 billion yuan in the first half of the year, and Xiapu accounted for half of it. In the second half of the year, this proportion will increase a little more. With the support of Xinpu Iron and Steel, Xiapu's industrial tax revenue in the first half of the year exceeded one billion, half of which was paid into the national treasury, and the remaining half was basically intercepted in Xiapu County. In addition, the construction industry is also a major part of Xiapu County's local finance and taxation, with a tax revenue of 150 million in the first half of the year. Huai coal out of the east, Xinpu is the most important transfer port, coupled with the coal consumed in Xiapu, the first half of the coal through Xiapu reached 8 million tons, driving the rapid development of commerce and trade in Xiapu County. Coupled with other miscellaneous taxes, Xiapu's local fiscal and tax revenue in the first half of the year exceeded last year's level, and exceeded 2 billion yuan for the whole year, so there should be no particularly big pressure......

Li Gu nodded and said, "Then it seems that Donghua City will surpass Xucheng in terms of industrial and fiscal and tax scale this year." ”

Hearing Li Gu say this, Guo Chengze was also silent: Before Xinjin Port can divide the momentum of Xinpu and Meixi, whether it is him or Chen Baoqi, if the contradiction with Shen Huai is so sharp that it is incompatible, no matter how many people in the province hate Shen Huai, in the end, the province weighs it, and they may follow in Tan Qiping's footsteps.

In particular, the Department of Planning and Economics is carrying the banner of reform and opening up, and Premier Wang Yuan is unlikely to tolerate internal officials spitting on this banner.

Li Gu said: "Since Xiapu County has taken the lead in running this fund, I think that both Donghua City and the province should actively promote the growth of this fund, so that it can truly contribute to the improvement of the infrastructure of the Huaihai Bay Economic Zone." ”

Guo Chengze said with a wry smile: "In the first half of the year, we spent our old nose to engage in Huaihai financial investment, mainly to promote the industrial development of the Huaihai Bay Economic Zone (the latest chapter). Industrial development is inseparable from infrastructure construction, which is good, and the order of infrastructure construction is even more advanced, but now the province and the city really want to work together to promote the growth of this fund, I'm afraid that Shen Manzi's intention is here......"

Now the province is making every effort to promote the overall development of the Huaihai Bay Economic Zone, in addition to the province headed by Xu Pei, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, the establishment of the Huaihai Bay Economic Zone Coordination Working Group, the following should also have some real entities that can promote the overall development of the Huaihai Bay Economic Zone.

The establishment of Huaihai Financial Investment can be said to be a truly meaningful step in this work, and the main direction is to promote the development of Huaihai Bay industry.

And the special construction fund to promote infrastructure construction is also indispensable - if the government construction fund established in Xiapu County is now used to promote and strengthen this work, then the influence of Shenhuai or Meigang will actually directly break through the restrictions of Donghua City and directly penetrate and spread to the entire Huaihai Bay area.

At that time, not only Jiangyan and other counties will go to Xiapula to pull the infrastructure project and pull special funds, but also local officials in Yicheng and Lanshan will most likely put down their shelves and come to the door to pull special funds.

No one is a fool, Guo Chengze has to be more sensitive from the grassroots level, how can he not see this kind of consequence happening?

In the case that the new fiscal and taxation system is difficult to promote, it can be said that it is an expedient measure to promote the balanced development of the entire Huaihai Bay region with the help of the relatively loose finance developed by Xiapu and Tangzha first, and to set up a special infrastructure fund, but it has to be said that it is a "good" expedient measure that is difficult to refuse.
