Guo Liguo said: "What you said is very reasonable, it seems to be reasonable, but it is not realistic at all, and the actual situation is not a theoretical rule. As you have just said, there is a premise first, that is, there must be enough cargo, such as a cargo ship departing from the port of Hamburg, which can be fully loaded to China, or add cargo from Japan, South Korea and Northeast Asia. And when the ship returns, there must be enough cargo to fully load the ship, but in fact this condition is difficult to meet......"

Bao Feiyang smiled and said: "Maybe it is difficult to meet at present, but with the development of China's economy and the continuous increase of import and export goods, it may not take long to be satisfied!

Guo Liguo smiled: "I'm also looking forward to that day......"

As he spoke, he raised his wrist and looked at the time: "Okay, it's almost time, I'll take you to see Secretary Zhang!"

"Then trouble the Secretary-General!"

Bao Feiyang nodded and stood up: "I will have to ask the Secretary-General for advice when I have the opportunity in the future!"

It can be seen that Guo Liguo is quite unimpressed with Bao Feiyang's opinion. In '98, Huaxia's GDP was only 5,773.3 billion yuan, or 700 billion US dollars, which was still far from the United States, and it also lagged behind Japan, Germany, France, and other countries in the world, ranking sixth in the world, not to mention surpassing the United States, and still far from becoming the world's second largest economy.

Guo Liguo obviously does not agree that Pujiang Port can rely on the advantages of the hinterland to become an international transshipment port. However, he still has a good impression of Bao Feiyang's modest and studious attitude, after all, his research in shipping is also his pride.

Guo Liguo took Bao Feiyang to Zhang Zehu's office, and there were many people waiting for Zhang Zehu to meet here.

However, Bao Feiyang had made an appointment in advance, Guo Liguo said hello to Zhang Zehu's secretary Qian Feng, Qian Feng went to the inner room to pay homage to Zhang Zehu, Zhang Zehu did not deliberately dry Bao Feiyang, but quickly ended the conversation with an official and let Guo Liguo and Bao Feiyang in.

"Hello Comrade Feiyang!"

Seeing Guo Liguo and Bao Feiyang walking into the office, Zhang Zehu took the initiative to stand up and stretched out his palm across the desk. Bao Feiyang hurriedly took a few steps forward and held Zhang Zehu's palm.

As the leader of Chundong New District, Zhang Zehu's political status in Pujiang City is higher than that of ordinary provincial capitals. Generally, the top leaders of provincial capitals will enter the provincial party committee, but they are often ranked lower in the team. Only a very small number of strong provincial capitals are likely to rank high, such as several super provincial capitals in the central and western regions that account for almost all of the province's total economic output.

Even after the development of Chundong New Area, after the annexation of Huixun District and other places, the GDP of the city accounts for more than 30% at most, after all, the development of other parts of Pujiang City is also very strong.

Of course, for more than a dozen districts in Pujiang City, Chundong New Area can account for more than 30% of the proportion, which is enough to show the importance of Chundong New Area.

Zhang Zehu is not only a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, but also the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and his ranking in the Municipal Party Committee is second only to the deputy secretary of the Party and the masses, ranking fourth, which can be called a high power.

"Secretary-General, stay too, there may be some things that you need to follow up!" Zhang Zehu beckoned Bao Feiyang and Guo Liguo to sit down, and then turned his head to look at Bao Feiyang.

"Comrade Feiyang, the World Exhibition is the city and Chundong New Area has always been a plan, probably at the beginning of the establishment of Chundong New Area, we have held large-scale international activities to enhance the international influence of Pujiang and Chundong New Area, through this window, let the world know about Pujiang, understand Chundong, at that time the World Exhibition entered our sight. Then, about four or five years ago, we put forward our internal plan to bid for the World Exhibition, and officially put the bid for the World Exhibition into the government's work plan and urban planning......"

Zhang Zehu said: "From the very beginning, the airport plan has been proposed, and everyone agrees with this plan, and we are considering building the central axis from the airport to the Chunjiang financial and business district through the airport plan, so as to drive the take-off of the entire Chundong New Area." After several years of preparation, this plan is very complete......"

"The riverside plan you proposed is indeed a good plan, but there are several problems ......"

"The first problem is that it is not mature, it is difficult to make in-depth research and decision-making on this project at the time of two months, if there is something that we are not considering mature, there may be problems in the future. Holding the World Exhibition is a rare opportunity for Chundong New Area, Pujiang, and even the whole of China, and we can't take risks!"

"The second problem, the location is not good. The riverside plan seems to be close to the central city and the Chunjiang financial district, but a Chunjiang River will cut off all the traffic channels on the west side, even if another bridge is built across the river, it will eventually fall on the road on the side of the Chunjiang River, and the traffic network on the Huixun side is also relatively biased, and most of the traffic pressure will fall on the side of the Chundong, which puts forward very high requirements for traffic capacity. ”

"The third problem is that the cost is too high. In recent years, the World Exhibition has placed great emphasis on sustainable development, focusing on ecology, environment and humanity, compared with the large area of open space near the airport, the Binjiang plan needs to empty Pudong Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., and a large area on the other side of the river will be demolished, and a large area will be demolished and rebuilt, which is a very taboo thing for the World Exhibition. ”

Zhang Zehu waved his hand and said: "I won't say more about other issues, we have also raised these problems to the city, and you should know ......."

Zhang Zehu said: "There is another problem, that is, for Chundong New Area, the adoption of the airport scheme is far more advantageous than the riverside scheme, and the development of Chundong is also of greater significance to the entire Pujiang River. There is only one chance to hold the World Exhibition, and we should let it have the greatest effect, Comrade Feiyang, what do you think?"

Bao Feiyang pondered for a while, Zhang Zehu was very frank and atmospheric, especially the last question, which made it clear that Chundong New Area is more important than all of you, so the World Exhibition plan should give priority to the interests of Chundong New Area.

Moreover, several problems mentioned by Zhang Zehu do also exist, although these problems can be solved, the same problem from another angle, there are advantages and disadvantages, and the positive side may be even greater.

In terms of large-scale demolition and construction, the cost is indeed high, but for Pugang, it is an opportunity for nirvana rebirth, even if there is no World Exhibition, Pujiang Iron and Steel will be demolished, so it is not possible to talk about the high cost. With the opportunity of the World Exhibition, the demolition and construction of Pugang and Jiangnan Shipbuilding is also to promote the economic development of Pujiang.

However, Bao Feiyang did not want to discuss dialectics with Zhang Zehu, after all, Zhang Zehu was the deputy secretary, and it was not easy for him to debate with Zhang Zehu.

Bao Feiyang also believes that Zhang Zehu is not blind to the other side of these problems, after all, the plan he submitted to the city has included the analysis of these problems.

Therefore, Zhang Zehu said that the most critical is the last one, that is, the airport plan is the most beneficial to the Chundong New Area, in contrast, the overall value of the Binjiang plan may be greater, but for the Chundong New Area, it may still be inferior to the airport plan, so the Chundong New Area will still be inclined to the airport plan.

If we want Zhang Zehu to change his mind and Chundong New Area to change his mind, we can only find a way to prove that compared with the airport plan, the Binjiang plan will not damage the interests of Chundong New Area.

This is very difficult, after all, with the airport plan, Chundong New Area can have the entire World Exhibition, if the Binjiang plan is adopted, it also means that the interests of the World Exhibition are divided.

However, Bao Feiyang had already been mentally prepared for this, and he sighed for a while and said: "I just sat at the secretary-general's side for a while, and asked the secretary-general about the construction of a shipping center in Chundong New District......"

"The international financial center, the trade center and the shipping center are the three major tasks that Chundong New Area will undertake at the beginning of its establishment. ”

Bao Feiyang said: "As far as the shipping center is concerned, the construction and development of Gaoqiao Port are very fast, but the economic development of Pujiang and even Huaxia is also very fast, and the Gaoqiao Port is becoming increasingly busy and gradually saturated. ”

Guo Liguo looked at Bao Feiyang a little strangely, and didn't know why he talked about the shipping center, which didn't seem to have anything to do with the World Exhibition.

Bao Feiyang continued: "Chundong New Area will become a world financial center, trade center and shipping center in the future, it is obviously not enough to rely on the current Chundong International Airport and Gaoqiao Port, Gaoqiao Port is one of the best port areas in Pujiang Port, but Gaoqiao Port is still a little worse than the real deep-water port, especially affected by the sediment sediment carried by the Tianjiang River, the channel is dredged every year, and the channel and berth resources are close to saturation, which seriously restricts the development of Gaoqiao Port. ”

"Of course, the cargo throughput of Gaoqiao Port is still very impressive, and it is also the leading port in China, but if Chundong wants to become a world-class shipping center, Gaoqiao Port Area alone may not be enough!"

Zhang Zehu nodded slightly, although he was a little strange Bao Feiyang did not talk about the World Exhibition but talked about the construction of the shipping center, but the current situation of Gaoqiao Port is indeed as Bao Feiyang said, it has gradually become saturated, and the port must be expanded to develop Chundong New Area and build a world-class shipping center. However, the channel and berth resources of the Gaoqiao port area have been saturated, and the Chundong New Area wants to build a new port area in Tangqiao, near Gaoqiao, but the conditions of the Tangqiao are not as good as Gaoqiao, and there are overlapping conflicts on the waterway, which is not the best plan, but the best plan that the Chundong New Area can find.
