Hearing Li Gu ask about the preparations for the Xinpu refining and chemical project, Shen Huai leaned forward slightly, and said with a smile: "The State Planning Commission has not yet started the approval process for the project, so where can Xinpu prepare......?

Hearing Shen Huai's sloppy eyes, Li Gu laughed and said to Sun Fujing: "Shen Huai is hiding it, and he doesn't even tell me the truth, but it seems that he has hidden many secrets, and he is afraid that he will report it if I know it......"

Sun Fujing looked at his watch and said, "The luncheon should be almost ready, Lao Qin and I will go over to take a look first, Secretary Li, you can talk to County Magistrate Shen for a while......"

What luncheon is prepared at noon in the hotel, naturally there is no need for Sun Fujing to care about anything personally, but he also knows that Shen Huai and Li Gu cannot come to Huaixi this time just to participate in the completion of the coke technical transformation project, he was just polite, invited Li Gu and Shen Huai to participate in the completion ceremony, did not think that Shen Huai and Li Gu agreed to attend, and specially ordered not to alarm the place, Sun Fujing guessed that Li Gu might want to use this excuse to bypass the attention of others and talk to Shen Huai about something.

Qin Dawei and the others all stood up and went to the banquet hall with Sun Fujing first, leaving Shen Huai to have a secret conversation with Li Gu in the lounge.

Watching Sun Fujing leave, Li Gucai said to Shen Huai: "After the inspection team of the provincial party committee arrived in Donghua, it was decided by Secretary Tian on a temporary basis;

"The day before yesterday, when I heard that the inspection team had deployed the inspection work plan, I was quite surprised," Shen Huai asked, "No one really reported me, right?

"It's not to report to the province," Li Gu took out a material from the briefcase he carried, handed it to Shen Huai, and said, "The report material was directly handed to the Ministry of Agriculture, and the Ministry of Agriculture still looked at Secretary Tian is face of the old minister, and transferred the materials to the province to deal with it......

Hearing Li Gu say this, Shen Huai's scalp was numb for a while, and he felt extremely tricky, so he took the materials and looked at them, and sure enough, they directly reported to the Ministry of Agriculture the materials of the Xiapu County Government and the Xinpu Development Group for encroaching on cultivated land.

The materials list the detailed data of the requisitioned cultivated land for industrial project reserves, as well as the conversion of cultivated land to green land along both sides of Meipu Avenue since the establishment of the provincial development zone, and the reserve land for industrial and new city projects.

At present, in terms of land reserves for industrial and urban infrastructure projects in China, policies and regulations are relatively vague, and they are only being explored at the local level. In some places, the amplitude is large, and in some places, the amplitude is small, and it all occupies a little bit of the edge.

Some people see the tremendous benefits of large-scale land reserves in improving the efficiency of industrial project construction, improving industrial layout planning as a whole, and increasing local fiscal revenues, while others are worried that the blind expansion of land reserves will bring about some unnecessary drawbacks.

However, since '92, the country's economic policy has been relaxed on the whole, so most of the localities have adopted an attitude of turning a blind eye to all kinds of economic autonomy, and they have mainly focused on ensuring high-speed economic growth.

Xiapu has taken resolute actions in terms of land reserves, relocating more than 4,000 households in one year, and freeing up nearly 40,000 acres of construction land for the construction of the development zone and the new city.

After deducting the completed and ongoing projects, SPD Development Group now has a reserve of 167 square kilometers of construction land.

If you include the green space on both sides of Meipu Highway and Pubei Highway outside the Xinpu Development Zone and Lingang New Town, the amount of land vacated by Xiapu in the past year is even more staggering.

The advantage of Shen Huai is that as long as there are investment projects, they can immediately take root for the construction of the main project, and there is no need for investors to consider the problems of infrastructure and industrial support.

Of course, the disadvantage of this is that the cultivated land area of Xiapu County will decline greatly in a short period of time, and a large number of demolition, resettlement and infrastructure projects have caused Xinpu Development Group and BII Group to accumulate a large amount of debt......

This was not a big problem when the economic policy was loosened in Zhongyāng, but now there are some problems due to overheated investment, and the Southeast Asian region is even more stormy, and the national economic policy is tightened, and there will be problems.

In the election incident, Donghua generated various rumors about the debt problem of Xinpu Group, which also originated from this.

It's just that Chen Baoqi, Yu Chengzhen and others can't directly point to the issue of Xinpu's land reserve, because Donghua City has adopted a relaxed attitude towards reserve land, and it should be tightened, and criticism should be made by name, starting from Xicheng District.

Xinpu Development Group is wholly owned and controlled by the Xiapu County Government, which collects and stores land on behalf of the county government, and the land income generated is mainly used for local infrastructure construction, and also subsidizes the construction of local education, transportation, medical and health facilities, etc., which is the most important supplement to local finance.

Tianyi Group is building a pharmaceutical industrial park in Xipizha District, and whose interests does it represent?

It's just that some people poke things directly to the Ministry of Agriculture, and the problem is a little tricky.

At present, the total amount of cultivated land in China is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Agriculture. Under the current situation of the overall economic and government tightness, if the Ministry of Agriculture files a case on the grounds of encroachment on farmland and sends a working group to investigate, if there is no one to help speak, Xinpu is likely to be brought out as a terrifying monkey to kill the chicken.

The bigger problem behind it is that the Ministry of Agriculture took care of Tian Jiageng is the face of the old minister, and transferred the report materials to Huaihai Province for disposal; he is also from the Ministry of Agriculture, and it is impossible for him to not get any news from the Ministry of Agriculture about the report from Xinpu - this also means that this time, together with the people in the upper echelons of the Song family, choose to watch their good show together......

Seeing that Shen Huaitie blushed and didn't speak, Li Gu sighed lightly in his heart and said, "After Secretary Tian received the materials transferred by the Ministry of Agriculture, he sent someone to learn about the situation in Xinpu. After the State Council issued a financial notice in February, Xinpu temporarily stopped large-scale land acquisition, mainly to promote road transportation, hydropower and other infrastructure construction, but the land acquisition in Xiasha and Qingsha villages is still very large, and the report materials also have a detailed explanation of this later......

Shen Huai said: "Xiapu's large-scale land reserve in the past year has had a greater impact on the amount of cultivated land in the county, but the county plans to build a modern agricultural demonstration area project in the north in the near future, which will supplement the shortage of cultivated land through measures such as reclamation and barren beach transformation." After the whole project is completed, it will probably add more than 10,000 acres of high-quality cultivated land, and the relevant planning work is being done, and it was originally planned to be delivered to the province in August. At the same time, the next larger-scale construction land in the Xinpu Development Zone will be reserved through reclamation, and the occupation of cultivated land will be reduced by ......"

"Secretary Tian also understands these situations," Li Gu said, "but Secretary Tian also wants me to tell you in advance that at the next provincial land work conference, Secretary Tian may criticize Xinpu by name." Secretary Tian's original words are what he told me, he will leave Huaihai at the end of the year, and if he wants to criticize Xinpu by name in the future, I am afraid that there will not be much opportunity......"

Shen Huai nodded and said, "I sincerely welcome Secretary Tian to criticize the shortcomings of Xiapu's work......"

Tian Jiageng, secretary of the provincial party committee, publicly criticized Xiapu by name at the meeting, on the surface, it was another severe blow to Xiapu after this inspection, but the intention behind it was not painstaking protection?

At the end of the year, Tian Jiageng will be transferred from Huaihai Province to another important post, and it is not yet known who the newly appointed secretary of the provincial party committee will be -- when the upper echelons of the Song family choose to watch a good show, the newly appointed secretary of the provincial party committee will not be soft if he wants to use Xinpu as a terrifying chicken to kill his authority; even if the newly appointed secretary of the provincial party committee chooses a neutral attitude, Zhao Qiuhua, Dai Lesheng, and others will definitely not be as restrained as they are now; even Xu Pei, a cadre of the Department of Planning and Economics, will not have a good impression of the Meigang system.

In order to avoid the Meigang system from falling into passivity at that time, Tian Jiageng had to "suppress" it in advance at this time, criticizing what should be criticized, banning what should be banned, and even squeezing out one or two pus cells, which greatly reduced the possibility of Meigang becoming a target after he was transferred.

Thinking of this, Shen Huai couldn't help but sigh lightly, but he didn't expect that when the Meigang system was likely to be greatly impacted, the entire Song family chose to watch from the sidelines, but Tian Jiageng, who was standing on the opposite side of the Song system, painstakingly wanted to protect the Meigang system from this violent impact.

However, Tian Jiageng has his difficulties, which can't be too obvious, probably because he was afraid of the fried hair here, so he arranged Li Gu's trip to Huaixi this time.

"Secretary Tian is also concerned about the preparation of the Xinpu Refining and Chemical Project," Li Gu continued, "In the future, Xinpu's land acquisition work in Xiasha and Qingsha villages will continue to expand. The scale of the construction of the crude oil terminal and storage tank farm for the Zhujiang refining and chemical plant is also significantly more than the design of the Zhunan plant's annual refining capacity of one million tons, and after April, the Xinpu refining and chemical preparatory team transferred hundreds of engineers from the Xuyou plant, which is obviously far more than the needs of the project preparations......

"We're working on all the projects that can be broken down and done in advance. A new 100,000-ton crude oil terminal will be built on Qingsha Village Island, and construction will start next month. If there is no approval, this terminal will be directly built in the name of Zhunan refining and chemical support. At the same time, the submarine pipeline between the storage tank farm on the west bank will be laid, and in fact, the chemical raw materials and oil pipelines will be launched in the future, as well as the Qingsha Village Island Sewage Plant and the Gaotan Shakou Sea Discharge Project," Shen Huai said, "The main refining equipment, including the hydrogenation tower, has also signed orders with domestic and foreign suppliers mainly from the First Heavy Group - the preparatory work has been carried out so far, and it is basically when the approval will come down, and when the first foundation pile in the main plant area will be laid......

"So fast," Li Gu knew Shen Huai's ability to decompose the project, but was still shocked to hear that the Xinpu Refining & Chemical project had actually entered the stage of substantial large-scale construction, "How to solve the problem with funds?"

For such a large-scale refining and chemical project, the investment in supporting projects accounts for a considerable proportion, and the investment in a 100,000-ton crude oil terminal and storage tank farm may account for one-quarter to one-fifth of the estimated budget of the entire project.

Although the whole project only needs hundreds of millions of funds to start, the crude oil terminal plus road infrastructure, water supply, power supply, reclamation, wave prevention, sewage engineering, laying crude oil and chemical pipelines on the seabed and other supporting projects are in full swing, plus the main equipment and suppliers have finalized the contract design and manufacturing, so a large number of projects are rolled out, and it is definitely not possible to support the previous billion or 800 million funds.

As far as Li Gu knows, Zhongxin Investment will sell its 160 million shares of Meigong shares to Fuji Steel for US$70 million, which can raise construction funds for Xinpu Refining & Chemical.

There is no problem with these funds to support the start-up of the Xinpu Refining & Chemical Project, but if the Xinpu Refining & Chemical Project is in full swing, I am afraid that it will not take two or three months to exhaust this amount of funds - there will be no large amount of follow-up funds to keep up, and once the whole project comes to a standstill, it will cause a double crisis in credit and capital supply.

Shen Huai believed that Li Gu should be concerned, and said: "In addition to selling the shares of Meigong to Fuji Steel, Zhongxin also joined forces with a number of investors to obtain a total of 32 billion yen in project loans from Yasuda Bank, a related party of Fuji Steel. The loan has been converted into US dollars and deposited in the overseas accounts of UTrust, Hongji and Evergreen Group, just waiting for approval, and we will review the funds to enter the ...... at any time."

The management of foreign exchange funds in China is extremely strict, and only foreign exchange funds are allowed to enter the relevant industrial fields for investment; at present, the Xinpu refining and chemical project has not been officially approved, so this fund cannot enter the country through normal channels.
