Coming out of the city government, Shen Huai and Zhang Lisheng got into Sun Yalin's car together, and said to Zhang Lisheng:

Zhao Dong and Pan Cheng led a team, together with Zhou Zhibai of Pengyue, to the United Kingdom to conduct a preliminary investigation and contact with West Omins Industrial Group. At present, it has been concluded that the electric furnace steel production line in West Youmins can be completely dismantled, and the key is how to dismantle it back is the most appropriate. In addition to being able to dismantle it back, it also needs to be able to be installed, it needs to be able to operate, and there are many details that I have to talk to Si Omins. I believe in the judgment of Zhao Dong and Pan Cheng, so it is very likely that Yalin and I will directly negotiate with West Yumins Industrial Group when we go over this time. The speed of the new project may be very fast, although the introduction of second-hand production lines, can save us a lot of money, but Zhao Dong, Pan Cheng they preliminarily judged that the production line after technical transformation, the annual production capacity can be increased to more than 500,000 tons, the amount of funds required for the construction of the entire project will still be extremely large......

"You give me an approximate number, so that I have a bottom in my heart. Zhang Lisheng said.

"If inflation can be controlled next year, the entire project will be almost 600 million yuan, and with a debt ratio of 60%, we will raise 240 million yuan by ourselves, and we will need the bank to help solve the loan of 360 million. Meigang has been preparing for the new project for half a year, and decided to go to the project, which will be very fast, and the construction period will only take one year at the earliest. In other words, I want to ask the banks to help us raise all these funds next year......," Shen Huai said.

Zhang Lisheng said with a smile: "With such a huge amount of funds, you have to communicate with President Yao Ronghua, we can't solve it by relying on our city bank." ”

"The day after tomorrow, I will fly to the UK via Hong Kong, and tomorrow I will meet with President Yao Ronghua in the provincial capital. I thought about it for a while, but I still want to ask President Zhang to take a troubled trip, and I can help Mei Gang say a few good words when the time comes. Shen Huai said.

"Okay. Zhang Lisheng said.

Although the nearly 400 million yuan of funds lacking in Meigang's new project cannot be solved by Yexin Bank, no matter how much loan the provincial bank ultimately decides to lend to Meigang's new project, it may be implemented through their municipal bank. This is equivalent to the provincial bank injecting a large amount of capital into the city bank, increasing the weight of the Donghua City Bank under his leadership in the entire business credit banking system.

Influenced by foreign shareholders, the provincial bank made a decision to enter Donghua on a large scale last year to conduct business, and Zhang Lisheng was not optimistic about Donghua's prospects.

At present, domestic banks are mainly engaged in deposit and loan business, which is directly related to regional economic development.

In '93, the total balance of social deposits in Donghua City was less than 3 billion yuan, and it was not even one-third of the level of Pingjiang City on the other side of the Zhujiang River.

Including China Construction Bank, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Bank of China, Agricultural Bank of China, urban credit cooperatives, rural credit cooperatives and many other financial institutions, have been rooted in Donghua for many years, almost divided the deposit and loan business in Donghua City, Yexin Bank squeezed in at this time, how much cake can be snatched from other people's plates?

In the past year, with Meixi Town as the focus, the scale of deposit and loan business has rapidly reached 600 million yuan, reaching a level similar to that of major financial institutions in Donghua City, and the results are far better than expected.

Even if there is no relationship between Sun Yalin and the Sun family, Zhang Lisheng is willing to cooperate more closely with Shen Huai.

In these years, no one is stupid, although some people are forced by the situation and will have some different statements, but in the bottom of their hearts, everyone will support those who bring him benefits.

In Donghua for more than a year, who can do things, who can't do things, who can make achievements, who can't make achievements, Zhang Lisheng can see clearly.

Although the joint venture project led by the city steel mill and Fuji Steel will also have a total investment of five or six billion, in the final analysis, this joint venture project is still under the framework of the industrial layout built by Shen Huai.

Including Meixi Power Plant, Meixi Port Wharf, Meigang Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., joint venture projects, and West Youmins Project, Meixi Port Industrial Park, only the layout of the steel industry, has reached the scale of 2 billion yuan with the investment that will be accommodated, and will directly become a pole of economic growth in Donghua City.

Zhang Lisheng believes that all this was planned in his heart at the beginning when Shen Huaizhi took the initiative to ask to take up his post in Meixi Town.

Zhang Lisheng thinks that he can't reach Shen Huai's level, but he still has the vision to know the high pattern, otherwise he would not have sent Yexin Bank to Donghua to take up an important role.

The characters in the officialdom of Donghua City, no matter how much they agree with Shen Huai in their hearts, have to succumb to the prestige of Tan Qiping as the secretary of the municipal party committee, and for Zhang Lisheng, they must make a choice between Tan Qiping and Shen Huai - following Tan Qiping can only move within the existing narrow framework, and uniting, or following Shen Huai, it is possible to make a career - can the answer not be obvious?

After Shen Huai and Zhang Lisheng separated, they went back to Meixi Town directly.

Chu Qiang met him at the town government and turned around and took a journal to him.

Shen Huai took it and looked at the journal of Huaihai Provincial University of Economics, and asked Chu Qiang with a smile: "Xin Qi's paper was published in their school's journal?"

"Well, call me and say that she will continue to follow up and study the development model of Meixi Town," Chu Qiang said, "By the way, there is one more thing I want to report to Secretary Shen...... you."

"What's the matter?"

"The Provincial School of Economics recruits on-the-job graduate students, and I want to try to apply for it. Chu Qiang said.

Shen Huai stared at Chu Qiang suspiciously, and asked, "I'll let you be in charge of the reception, you don't have to put yourself in, right?"

After all, Chu Qiang still had a tender face, so Shen Huai saw through it at a glance, and his face turned red.

Shen Huai laughed and said, "After you follow Secretary Yang to the city, you should have more free time than in Meixi Town, so you should really recharge your batteries." ”

*************

Returning from the Xucheng Railway Station, Li Gu sat in the car, looking at the darkening sky outside, looking at the old and low buildings on both sides, and secretly feeling that the economy of Huaihai Province was lagging too much. Although Xucheng is also the capital city of the eastern province, the urban construction is far inferior to Pingjiang and other cities in Jiangdong Province, and I don't know what kind of development can be achieved in Xu Pei's hands.

"Director Li, where do you want?" Xiao Huang, the driver of the car run by the provincial party committee, glanced at Li Gu from the rearview mirror and asked.

"Go to Secretary Tian. Li Gu said.

On Běi Jing Road, Xinze District, Xucheng, the family compound of the Provincial Party Committee is hidden among the lush trees.

The wind blows the grass and breaks, and the branches fall to the ground.

Li Gu, who lives in the north all year round, spent the winter in the south for the first time this year. I thought that the winter in the south was much warmer than in the north, but after I actually came over, I realized that it was different from what I imagined.

As soon as he got out of the car and walked into Tian Jiageng's house, there was no space in the house, Li Gu was so cold that he rubbed his hands, and when he saw Tian Jiageng, he was wearing a cotton jacket vest and sat in the study to approve documents, and said: "Secretary Tian, you are really not afraid of the cold." He walked over and took out the heater and prepared to plug it in.

Xucheng is located in the middle reaches of the Zhu River, with hills and mountains cut across the east side. The cold air from the north moves south, usually lingering in the vicinity of Xucheng for a long time, making the winter in Xucheng both wet and cold. Although the temperature is only minus three or four degrees, the wet and cold penetrate the bones. Xucheng does not supply heating after winter, and there is no heating air conditioner or heater in the room, which is really not something that northern men can get used to.

"You have to be less lazy, like me, get up at five o'clock every day to run and exercise, these cold are really nothing. Tian Jiageng said with a smile.

"I can't stand that. Li Gu said that he went south to work with Tian Jiageng for four months, and the workload was very heavy every day, although he also insisted on exercising, but he couldn't get up at five o'clock every day.

"By the way, the joint venture project between Meigang and Fuji Steel, Donghua City should have reported to the provincial government yesterday and talked about the results?" Tian Jiageng asked.

"I have a summary of the report here, which I just got from the provincial government office in the afternoon. Li Gu took the report minutes from his briefcase to Tian Jiageng.

In addition to the necessary personnel adjustments, Tian Jiageng was unable to directly bypass Zhao Qiuhua to interfere in specific economic work, and he could only express concern about such a large joint venture project between Fuji Steel and Meigang through the provincial party committee office, and it was inconvenient to directly follow up the negotiation process.

Even the provincial government is more likely to hand over the initiative in negotiations to Donghua City; only when Donghua City has results or if there is any leakage can it inquire or intervene. This is also the need for hierarchical management and performing their duties, if the superior department interferes in everything, one is that they do not have so much manpower and energy, and the other is that they will let the subordinates be constrained, and the result is that nothing can be done.

"If Huaihai wants to develop, it must have a high starting point of industrial planning, and it also needs to be driven by large projects...... Tian Jiageng said with emotion, took the report minutes of Donghua City from Li Gu's hand, and put on his glasses again.

Donghua City's report minutes only have the preliminary intention results of the joint venture negotiations, but not the negotiation process.

"That's not right," Tian Jiageng read the report minutes, frowned, put down the document, looked at Li Gu, and said puzzledly, "Judging from this preliminary joint venture intention, Meigang seems to have no intention of participating in this joint venture, and the proportion of shares is far lower than that ......of Donghua Iron and Steel Plant."

"It should be," Li Gu said, "Meixi Port Industrial Park is mainly based on the development of the steel industry, which is a pattern led by Shen Huai." The joint venture project is located in Meixi Town, if Meigang is not active, Donghua Iron and Steel Plant may not be able to do a good job in this joint venture project. However, it is very strange that Fuji Steel has not strongly asked Meigang to lead the joint venture project, and I can't figure out what the problem is......"

"You call Donghua City directly to find out what the situation is," Tian Jiageng said, and when Li Gu picked up the phone, he shook his head again, "This doesn't seem to be appropriate, Donghua City may not tell the truth......

"After all, Donghua City has still achieved results, and it is really difficult to ask anything now, at most they will make up a more detailed introduction to the negotiations," Li Gu said, "Even if something really goes wrong, it seems that it is not easy to interfere with anything." Donghua City's economic development this year is not bad, and it can be ranked in the front of the province......"

If the province wants to interfere in the affairs of the prefecture and city, it also needs to have high-sounding reasons, either to be held accountable for lagging economic development, or to be held accountable for major cases, or to pay attention to major investment or construction projects.

After Tan Qiping took up the post of secretary of the city party committee in Donghua City, he still succeeded in carrying out his work and mastering the situation; not only did he continue to investigate and deal with major and important cases, but there were also marked improvements in Donghua's work in all aspects; compared with previous years, there was marked progress in attracting investment, increasing fiscal and taxation measures, and increasing the gross national product.

Under such circumstances, when Tian Jiageng arrived in Huaihai Province, he resolutely adjusted the party and government leaders of several prefectures and cities, and even transferred Xu Pei, who he trusted, to Xucheng to serve as mayor and preside over the economic work of the provincial capital.

Seeing Tian Jiageng frowning and hesitating, Li Gu said: "Coincidentally, the journal published by the Provincial School of Economics last month has a paper on the study of township economy, and the prototype of the research is the development model of Meixi Town. I just took the time to take a look at it in the past two days, and the data is very detailed......"

"Really?" Tian Jiageng raised his eyebrows and said, "Bring it over and show it to me......
