Guo Liguo smiled and said: "Chundong New Area does intend to expand the Gaoqiao Port Area, and we have studied different plans with the Shipping Bureau and the Pujiang Port Authority. ”

Bao Feiyang nodded: "Let's assume that everything is going well in the situation that the secretary general said, the Gaoqiao Port Area has been successfully expanded, the Tianjiang channel has also been successfully dredged, and the deep-water channel with a water depth of fifteen meters ......"

"But the world is also developing rapidly, and the current situation and potential of Gaoqiao Port can become an international port, but it cannot stand out among many deep-water ports and become a unique one. The Secretary-General also said that the port of Pujiang, including the Gaoqiao port area, is a typical hinterland port. With the development of China's economy, the hinterland of Pujiang Port will become stronger and stronger, and the throughput requirements for port cargo will become greater and larger, but it is still a hinterland port after all!"

Bao Feiyang shook his head and said: "No matter how strong this hinterland is, relying only on the economic hinterland of a country, Pujiang Port is still a little lacking in the two key points of becoming an international shipping center. Even with the strength of the U.S. economy, the Port of New York has been declining in cargo throughput rankings in recent years......"

Strictly speaking, Bao Feiyang's sentence is obviously biased, at its peak, New York Harbor was deservedly the world's largest port and a world-class shipping center, and no one can say that New York Harbor has any shortcomings in this world-class and center.

Of course, the situation in Pujiang is not the same as that of New York, when the United States was the absolute center of the world, and even if China has become the world's second largest economy 20 years later, no one can accurately predict when it will be able to surpass the United States and become the world's largest country.

Therefore, Bao Feiyang is not wrong to say this, a single domestic hinterland goods in and out, even if the throughput is large, can be called an international port, but it is difficult to say that it is an international shipping center. After all, the status of an international shipping center is not just a cargo throughput index that can be summarized!

Zhang Zehu glanced at Bao Feiyang: "Comrade Feiyang, what we are going to talk about today is the World Exhibition, which should have nothing to do with the International Shipping Center, right?"

Bao Feiyang smiled: "Of course it is related!"

Secretary Zhang also said just now that the holding of the World Exhibition is to promote the construction of Chundong New Area, and conversely, the World Exhibition should also serve the construction of Chundong New Area. The EXPO seems to have little to do with the construction of the shipping center in Chundong New Area, but it has an important impact on the overall planning of Chundong New Area, which in turn will also affect the construction of the shipping center. ”

Zhang Zehu said: "It sounds reasonable, but I don't have much time, and in ten minutes, I want to talk to the foreign trade and economic cooperation!"

Zhang Zehu was a little impatient, and only left Bao Feiyang with ten minutes of things.

"Secretary Zhang, don't worry, ten minutes should be enough!" Bao Feiyang said.

"Secretary Zhang, I want to borrow this map on the wall!"

Bao Feiyang said hello to Zhang Zehu, then got up and came to the big map hanging on the wall, he first drew a circle on the world map, including East China, South Korea, and Japan, and then drew a line on the Pacific Ocean: "The location of Pujiang, if you go north, you can radiate Northeast Asia, and if you go south, you can radiate the countries around the South China Sea, and the open sea is also close to international routes, so it is not impossible for us to become a transshipment port!"

"Along the river shoreline of Xuan Dong New Area, strictly speaking, it still belongs to the ...... of Hanoi Port"

As he spoke, Bao Feiyang came to the large map of Pujiang City again, first stretched out his hand and dotted the location of the Gaoqiao Port Area, and then rowed along the Tianjiang Waterway: "The Secretary-General also said before that the Tianjiang Waterway can reach the conditions of a 15-meter-deep waterway in ten years through dredging. But the reason why this plan has not been finalized is that there is a great deal of uncertainty in it, that is, the unpredictable hydrological conditions of the Tianjiang River......"

"Last year's major flood in the Tianjiang River basin told us that the current Tianjiang is different from the Tianjiang in the past, due to economic development, vegetation destruction, soil erosion in the middle and upper reaches of the Tianjiang River is becoming more and more serious, and the sediment carried in the Tianjiang River has increased, resulting in the overall uplift of the riverbed in the middle and lower reaches, which is the main reason why the scale of precipitation in the basin last year did not reach once in 50 years, but the Tianjiang River has a once-in-a-century flood......

Bao Feiyang said: "Similarly, due to this, the sediment deposition situation in the estuary of the Tianjiang River is not optimistic. With the increase of sediment content in the water of the Tianjiang River, the sediment is easily deposited on the riverbed, which will lead to an increase in the workload and difficulty of dredging the waterway, and it is likely that the results of our hard work and dredging will be all in vain overnight because of a flood!"

"When I first took office, I encountered such an incident, a sandbar that originally belonged to Huixun District, after the flood last year, actually ran to the other side and connected with the river bank of Tongbei City, and the people on both sides had a conflict because of the ownership of this sandbar...... This shows the unpredictable ...... of hydrological changes in the Tianjiang Estuary"

Bao Feiyang stretched out his hand and nodded at the open sea position at the mouth of the sea: "In contrast, if we can build a deep-water port on the sea beyond the mouth of the river, it will not be affected by the Tianjiang waterway!"

Guo Liguo said: "Mayor Bao, you still want to build a deep-water port in Huixun District!"

Bao Feiyang smiled, and then stretched out his hand to make another big circle on the map, including Chundong New District and Huixun District: "Secretary-General, don't care whether this deep-water port is Huixun District or Chundong New District, if this port is completed, then such a large area, does it have the potential to become an international shipping center?"

Guo Liguo hesitated for a moment: "Are you talking about Chundong New Area and Huixun District? Mayor Bao, you proposed that it is not enough to co-organize the World Expo, and you still want Chundong New District and Huixun District to cooperate to build a world shipping center?"

Guo Liguo couldn't help but be a little amused, Huixun District had proposed a deep-water port plan for the outlying islands before, but this plan received limited support, first, because the investment in the deep-water port plan on the outlying islands was huge, and Pujiang could not afford such a large project. Second, the outlying islands are 70 or 80 kilometers away from the current Gaoqiao Port Area and 100 kilometers away from the Chunshan Port Area, which is unacceptable to Chunshan and Chundong New Area, and they certainly do not want the status of Chunshan Port Area and Gaoqiao Port Area to decline, but also hope that the Chunshan Port Area and Gaoqiao Port Area can continue to expand.

In Guo Liguo's view, Bao Feiyang went around such a big circle in the hope that Chundong New Area would support the outlying island deep-water port plan. He didn't even know what to say, and the matter of co-organizing the World Exhibition had not yet received the support of Chundong, so Bao Feiyang threw out another plan for cooperating in the construction of a deep-water port.

Zhang Zehu didn't speak, but his slightly frowning brows were obviously a little dissatisfied.

Bao Feiyang smiled and said: "Cooperation is such a thing, it is difficult to join forces, but internal friction is easy, it is better to merge!"

Guo Liguo didn't react for a while, but Zhang Zehu's eyes suddenly lit up.

Bao Feiyang knew that Zhang Zehu already understood what he meant. He continued to stretch out his hand and nodded on the map: "At present, Chundong New Area has formed Chunjiang Financial Business District, Zijiang High-tech Park, Gaoqiao Lingang Industrial Zone, Yinqiao Export Processing Zone, these large areas, although the construction of Chundong is in the ascendant, the space is still very large, it looks empty, but considering the future development potential, more than 500 square kilometers of land in Chundong may not be abundant for some projects that require a large amount of land!"

Bao Feiyang clicked a few times on the periphery of Chundong New Area: "Here you can build a university town, a science and education city, an international tourist resort, a country park, sightseeing agriculture, and then Tianjiang 10 million tons of steel base, Chuansha Island shipbuilding industry base, Lingang New City and international shipping center ......."

"To the east of the Chunjiang River, south of the Tianjiang River, this large area of land exceeds 1,000 square kilometers, from the mouth of the Chunjiang River to the mouth of the Tianjiang River, from the Gaoqiao Port to the deep-water port of the outlying islands, such a pattern is enough to make the Pujiang River an international shipping center! It can also increase the industrial thickness of the Chundong New Area and optimize the ......ecological environment of the Chundong New Area."

Guo Liguo was able to become the chief housekeeper of the Chundong New District Party Committee, and his thinking was naturally dissatisfied, and he quickly realized what Bao Feiyang meant by the merger! But he still seemed to be a little incredulous: "District Chief Bao, what you just said about the merger?"

The merger of Chundong New Area and Huixun District is said to be a merger, but with the status of Chundong New District, it should actually be the merger of Chundong New District with Huixun District, or the merger of Huixun District into Chundong New District and become part of Chundong New District. Guo Liguo found it hard to believe that Bao Feiyang, as the head of Huixun District, would come over to agitate Chundong New District to merge Huixun District.

Bao Feiyang smiled and said: "Secretary-General, what I'm talking about is that the affairs of our two districts can be combined and planned!"

"Chundong New Area wants to become the leader of the national development, the pattern naturally has to be played, and the development plan of Chundong New Area can be considered together with our Huixun District. For example, the construction of the international shipping center can be considered together, and the Huixun District can also be considered together, and the holding of the World Exhibition can also be considered together!" Bao Feiyang said.

As the head of Huixun District, he is indeed not suitable for blatantly asking Chundong New District to annex Huixun District, if this spreads, it will definitely make the people of Huixun District dissatisfied with their district head.

However, Guo Liguo still understood the meaning of Bao Feiyang's words, and asked Chundong New District to "merge" Huixun District when planning and doing things.

Guo Liguo kept looking at Zhang Zehu in disbelief, but Zhang Zehu laughed at this time.
