Chapter 512: Exchange of Interests
Xipizha District and Tianshenggang are not within the scope of Meixi New District and Tangzha District, but Xiong Wenbin, in addition to being the secretary of the Tangzha District Party Committee, is also the executive vice mayor in charge of the city's economic work.
A year ago, Shen Huai proposed the concept of building an expressway along the Yangtze River, not only to speed up the connection between the Meixi New Area and the soon-to-be-completed Xudong Expressway, but also to promote the formation of a physical industrial belt on the north bank of the Zhujiang River.
Xipizha Port and Tiansheng Port are located in this area, and the upgrading and expansion of Xipizha Port and Tiansheng Port will ultimately be conducive to the rapid formation of this industrial belt.
Xiong Wenbin has clearly put forward this concept now, Shen Huai is playing tricks in his mouth and talking about it, but in fact he can't help but support it.
However, support is all about money.
The construction capital of the eight-kilometer-long riverside expressway, including the bridge at the mouth of the Meixi River, will not be less than 200 million yuan, which is worth building four Zhuxi Avenues.
Industrial Investment and New Urban Investment are strong, but it does not mean that they have the ability to come up with 200 million cash.
The construction of the Yanjiang Expressway is not a toll road, and there will be no direct income - there is no income, no cash flow, and it is not easy to borrow from financial institutions, so it is necessary for Industrial Investment and New Urban Investment to deduct 200 million funds from other places.
In addition, the upgrading and expansion of Xipi Gate Port and Tiansheng Port requires a huge amount of funds, which are not borne by the two groups of Industrial Investment and Xincheng Investment.
"Lao Xiong, you have a lot to do, and it is far from enough to rely on Meixi Industrial Investment and Xincheng Investment alone," Shen Huai said with a deep groan, "The city should also set up an industrial investment and urban investment group in addition to Beijing Investment in order to better do a good job in municipal administration and infrastructure work." ”
"The work in the city needs to be promoted, but there is no urgency," Xiong Wenbin said, "It has been nearly a year since the Meixi New Area was proposed, but the three towns of Meixi, Zhushe and Huangqiao have not really begun to integrate so far, and I hope that the next stage of work will mainly be to put the development rights of industrial land in the two towns of Zhushe and Huangqiao, including the Science and Technology Industrial Park, into Meixi Industrial Investment, and the municipal construction of the new district into Xincheng Investment." On the one hand, it is necessary to strengthen the strength of industrial investment and new urban investment and promote the integration of Meixi New Area as soon as possible, and on the other hand, it will inevitably require industrial investment and new urban investment to bear heavier responsibilities. ”
Meixi Industrial Investment and Xincheng Investment, after all, are the financial investment groups under the Meixi Town Government, Huangqiao and Zhushe no matter how poor they are, but they are not subordinate to Meixi Town in terms of status, but together with Meixi Town to form Meixi New District.
Now it is necessary to put the industrial land development rights of Zhushe and Huangqiao into Meixi Industrial Investment, and the municipal development and construction rights in the two townships and towns into Xincheng Investment, so as to speed up the integration of the three townships in Meixi New District, and in fact, make Huangqiao and Zhushe two townships completely subordinate to Meixi Town.
Guo Quan and Huang Xinliang definitely have no opinion on this, but the two townships of Huangqiao and Zhushe will inevitably fall out.
As long as it is pressed down from the city and district, the two towns of Huangqiao and Zhushe have nothing to say.
If you want the city and district to press down in the form of an administrative order, it does not mean that Xiong Wenbin is the executive vice mayor and secretary of the district party committee, and if you don't want to become a handle for others' attacks, you must have a legitimate reason that can block everyone's mouth.
The legitimate reason is that the industrial investment and new urban investment should undertake the important task of upgrading and expanding the Yangtze River Expressway, Xipizha Port and Tiansheng Port - let the family do the work, and give people benefits.
Xiong Wenbin's idea is also a number of birds with one stone.
Of course, Shen Huai also understands why Xiong Wenbin said that some work is in a hurry.
Some ideas are not bad, and it is not that others do not know that they are good, but the key lies in the question of who came up with them.
Unless there are obvious benefits that people can't refuse, any solution that seems promising but also carries huge risks will be met with great resistance to implementation.
Donghua has also made some achievements in attracting investment in the real economy in recent years, and the investment in infrastructure mainly relies on its own accumulation.
In 95, Donghua City's local fiscal expenditure reached 1.6 billion yuan, and even if nearly half of it was spent on infrastructure construction, it would be 800 million yuan -- if this model is not changed, it will be difficult to have a large investment in infrastructure construction, and if the hard environment of infrastructure cannot keep up, the speed of attracting investment and the development of the real economy will be suppressed.
To get rid of this vicious circle, it is necessary to innovate the construction mode of infrastructure - Shen Huai set up an asset office in Meixi Town very early, under the asset office, with the industrial investment group as the main body, mainly responsible for the development of land and infrastructure in the industrial park, with the new urban investment group as the director, mainly responsible for the construction and development of municipal infrastructure in the township, and no longer as in the past, these things are contracted by the government.
It is also because of this new model that the scale of infrastructure investment in Meixi Town has increased from one or two million per year to one or two million at this time.
Shut down
After two or three years of development, Meixi Industrial Investment and Meixi New City Investment have developed to a certain scale.
In addition to the development rights of the other three major industrial parks in Meixi New Area, except for the Science and Technology Park, the main assets of Meixi Industrial Investment are the holdings of entities such as Meixi Iron and Steel Corporation, Meixi Power Plant and Meixi Port Company, with total net assets of nearly 300 million.
Among so many municipal enterprises in Donghua, after the merger and reorganization of Municipal Steel to Provincial Steel, the net assets of Tianshenggang Power Plant, which has high returns due to power shortage, are larger than those of Meixi Industrial Investment.
During Su Kaiwen's tenure as secretary of the Party Committee of Meixi Town, in order to restrict Huang Xinliang, the power of municipal development and construction in the town was stripped from Xinchengtou.
Although in the hands of Su Kaiwen, the main thing is to hand over the reconstruction and expansion of Xiamei Highway and the development of commercial plots on both sides to the construction company under the Municipal Steel Mill at first, and then to be built by the joint venture company of SITC and Evergreen Group, but the development of Xincheng Investment is still quite affected, and its assets mainly include the property in Meixi Old Town, Xuetang Street and other places, as well as the development of two residential areas in the north of the town, with net assets of nearly 200 million.
No matter where it is placed, the achievements of Meixi Industrial Investment and Meixi New Urban Investment can be said to be remarkable.
Shen Huai went to Meixi Town, although the town-owned assets at that time were supported by Meigang, but Meigang at that time was also able to avoid the fate of bankruptcy, and in the end, it was for the convenience of loans that the net assets were estimated to 40 million - adding up the other town-owned assets in general, it was far less than 100 million.
In less than three years, in addition to the scale of the real economy in Meixi Town, which far exceeded the past, the town's assets have increased by more than six or seven times, which is a very dazzling achievement.
However, it is sufficient for Xincheng Investment and Industrial Investment to be placed in Meixi Town, or to continue to provide infrastructure construction, development and investment services for Meixi Town, but while serving Meixi Town, it is also necessary to undertake the upgrading and expansion of the Yanjiang Expressway and Xipizha Port and Tiansheng Port, and Shen Huai is still worried that the two groups will not be able to catch it.
Shen Huai pondered for a long time and said: "The bond financing of 200 million US dollars raised by Huaineng from Berkeley and BNP Paribas this time can not only start the construction of the three power plants in Jihe, Xiapu and Pingjiang, but also squeeze out some of it. If this is the case, the city's investment in infrastructure should be more relaxed. ”
Xiong Wenbin nodded and said, "Yes, this requires determination in the city, but I believe that Chen Baoqi still wants to do something when he comes to Donghua." ”
Due to the current shortage of power supply, Tianshenggang Power Plant is the best among the current municipal enterprises in terms of asset quality and income.
Huaineng is a wholly state-owned enterprise, and the municipal government will sell the Tianshenggang Power Plant to Huaineng, there is no policy obstacle, and the sale to Huaineng will cash out, and the city will not have a loss problem from the books, and can also obtain a large amount of funds for special infrastructure.
The key point is that a group of interest groups survived around the power plant before, and now the power plant is transferred and sold to Huaineng, and the funds go directly into the municipal government account, and the funds are earmarked, and the interest groups can no longer rely on the power plant to survive, and they cannot get a trace of profit compensation from the sale of the power plant, and the resistance behind the whole thing can be imagined.
This matter, the officials of the Meigang system may promote it, after all, it can strengthen the strength of the Huaineng Group, and the question is whether the Zhao family headed by Chen Baoqi will support it.
Otherwise, without a higher level of support, Chen Baoqi's "cautious" can almost make the entire plan yellow.
Is it possible for Chen Baoqi to support it?
Xiong Wenbin said that Chen Baoqi wanted to do something, and Shen Huai did not deny this.
Chen Baoqi didn't want to do things, so he wouldn't jump from the secretary general of the provincial government to Donghua to serve as the secretary of the municipal party committee.
However, when Chen Baoqi does things, it is difficult to say whether he considers safeguarding the interests of the Zhao family, or whether he can devote himself to the public and do things for the development of Donghua.
In the final analysis, it is still about the exchange of interests.
Xiong Wenbin didn't say it thoroughly, but Shen Huai could understand what he meant, and asked Xiong Wenbin: "Old Xiong, do you mean that Huai Neng allocated funds to purchase the Tianshenggang Power Plant, and the control of the funds was handed over to Chen Baoqi, so that the Zhao Department could participate in the construction of the Yanjiang Expressway and the Xipizha Port and Tiansheng Port accordingly?"
"What do you think?" asked Xiong Wenbin.
"I also want to be able to cooperate with the Zhao family more than disagreements in the future," Shen Huai gritted his teeth and said, "In this case, you can talk about it." After all, you can't think about taking advantage of everything. However, all the funds are at the disposal of the Zhao family, and if the amount can be compressed, it will be compressed as much as possible, and the landlord's family really does not have much surplus grain. ”
Xiong Wenbin laughed, pointed at Shen Huai, and said with a smile to He Qingshe: "You say, what's the use of Shen Huai crying poor here?"
He Qingshe and Li Feng both laughed.
Shen Huai said: "The current development trend of enterprises, aggregation is better than decentralization, the strength of Meixi Industrial Investment and Xincheng Investment is still weak, before standing at the level of Meixi Town, the need for division of labor, to set up two platforms, but now we have to stand at a higher level to look at the problem, the merger of the two into one, it seems to be the general trend......
Xiong Wenbin nodded, knowing what Shen Huai meant, there are more than 300 municipal enterprises, plus districts and counties, as well as township enterprises, there are thousands, the forces are scattered, and the management system is rigid.
Next, whether it is promoted by Meigang or Zhao, the restructuring of enterprises belonging to cities and districts and counties is also the merger of the merger, the abolition of the retrenchment, the reorganization of the reorganization, and the development of large groups is also the general trend.
Meixi is the foundation of Meixi Iron and Steel System, which is mainly reflected in the influence and control of Meixi Industrial Investment and Meixi New City Investment. Before, Shen Huai only wanted to ensure his status and influence in Meixi, so there was little difference between the merger and division of industrial investment and new urban investment.
Now, the Meigang department wants to compete with the Zhao department at the level of Donghua City, and the industrial investment and the new city investment, as the representatives of the local forces in Meixi that he can influence, the benefits of the merger are obviously more than scattered.
