Chapter 952: Bucking the Trend

In the second half of 1992, the phenomena of "four heats", "four highs", "four tightness" and "one chaos" appeared in China's economic life.

The "four heats" are the development zone heat, the real estate heat, the stock heat, and the fund-raising heat.

The "four highs" are high investment scale, high credit supply, high currency issuance, and high price rise.

"Four tight", that is, transportation tension, energy tension, important raw material tension, capital tension.

"One chaos", that is, the economic order, especially the financial order.

And these four heats, four highs, four tightness, and chaos are the main goals of the upcoming macroeconomic regulation and control.

This gave Wu Xiaozheng a headache.

If you want to help Liao Hongcai keep the international brand, Wu Xiaozheng has to persuade him to play the idea of the development zone, but the problem is that the state is about to control the heat of the development zone.

This is indeed a big problem.

The reason is very simple, if you want to "plant a plane tree and attract a golden phoenix", this plane tree is the key.

For large-scale investment promotion, preferential policies are the key, and the typical model that reflects preferential policies and simplifies the process is the development zone.

But the current development zone fever is really a bit chaotic.

Since the reform and opening up, China has formed a gradient pattern of "special economic zones, coastal open cities, coastal economic open zones, and inland areas" gradually advancing from the coast to the interior.

In this pattern of opening up, the emergence of economic and technological development zones and high-tech industrial development zones (referred to as development zones) is the most representative.

The earliest development zone appeared in 1984, when the state decided to set up economic and technological development zones in Dalian, Tianjin and other coastal open cities, hoping to let it play a window, radiation, demonstration and leading role in opening up, attracting foreign investment, reform and experimentation, promoting regional industrial structure adjustment, economic growth and sustainable development.

This pilot model has proven to be productive.

In the first few years, the development zone did play a good role in driving the development of the regional economy.

But good results can also bring side effects, that is, it has set off a development zone fever across the country.

For a time, all kinds of development zones have sprung up like "mushrooms after a rain", and there has been a situation of "competing to plant plane trees and recruiting phoenix birds" in various places, and a "development zone fever" has emerged.

Especially in 1992, this development zone fever reached a high tide.

According to statistics, as of March 93, there have been more than 6,000 development zones above the county level in the mainland, covering a total area of more than 15,000 square kilometers, most of which have been approved by various localities without authorization.

There are really enough of them.

In this "swarm of bees" in the "development zone fever", in addition to industrial parks and high-tech zones, there are also a variety of other development zones, such as border cooperation zones, export processing zones, special customs supervision zones, agricultural high-tech zones, financial development zones, characteristic industrial parks, cultural and creative industry parks, tourist resorts, etc.

It is undeniable that some of these various development zones have indeed played a role in promoting economic development.

However, after the flood of development zones, the vast majority of development zones have no actual benefits, and the vast majority of them are for staking land.

As a result, the vast majority of development zones have become "ghost zones" overgrown with weeds.

Such a ghost area is very detrimental to the development of the whole country.

The existence of these ghost areas occupies and idles a large amount of local land resources, not to mention that they will also bring huge debts to the local government, so that enterprises, banks, and local governments have no way to get rid of each other's kidnapping in the development zone.

In addition, the doubling of the number of officials, fraudulent preferential policies, and falsification of statistical data have also become serious problems brought about by these ghost areas.

This is precisely the reason why the state is ready to vigorously rectify the fever of development zones.

Wu Xiaozheng felt that Changshi was really unlucky, and when it was most necessary to establish a development zone, it hit the muzzle of the gun.

After thinking about it, he said to Liao Hongcai: "There is no good way, if you really want to gain something, you must first establish a development zone." ”

There is really no solution to this problem.

In this era, when large-scale investment promotion is carried out in various places, the card of the development zone is played, and the reason why the card of the development zone is effective is that in addition to simplifying the work process, the development zone also has great preferential measures in terms of policies.

When foreign businessmen choose a place to settle down, they pay special attention to preferential policy conditions, and if Changshi cannot compete with other places in terms of preferential policies, it will be difficult to attract Golden Phoenix.

Liao Hongcai replied: "Changshi declared a development zone at the end of last year, but it is only a provincial-level development zone. ”

Wu Xiaozheng: "......"

Well, he's admitted to being a bit of a loner.

He knows that there is a development zone in Changshi, and it is a state-level high-tech development zone, but this development zone focuses on science and technology, and is not suitable for those international brands that focus on production and processing.

He also knew that in later generations, Changshi also had a state-level economic development zone.

He just didn't know that this development zone was declared last year.

It seems that in this development zone fever, the long market is not exempt.

Wu Xiaozheng also believes that although this development zone has been declared, it should not be much different from other ghost districts now.

"Then what you have to do now is to integrate this development zone first, and then strive to apply for a national development zone. ”

Although it is also a development zone, there is still a big difference between the provincial development zone and the national development zone, for example, in terms of policy preferences, the national development zone can be eligible to provide a complete set of two exemptions and three halves of the policy to enterprises in the park.

Liao Hongcai thought for a while.

As an important member of the system, he naturally knows the difference between provincial-level development zones and national-level development zones, not only in terms of preferential policies, but also in the support of the state.

He asked a little worriedly: "With the current conditions of the Changshi Economic Development Zone, it is not enough to be qualified to apply for a national development zone, right?"

At this time, he did not know that the state was ready to take action against the development zone.

Wu Xiao knows this.

At this time, he was thinking, will the state's next macroeconomic regulation and control policy be cut or screened? We can't also restrict the development zones that meet the conditions, right?

Indeed, if the economic development zone of Changshi does not make a big fuss about projects and investment promotion, let alone declare a national development zone, it will be good if it can not be cut.

"Of course, the current conditions are not mature enough, but if I tell you, L'Oreal and other international brands are interested in investing in domestic factories?

Wu Xiaozheng finally revealed some news.

The conditions for Changshi Economic Development Zone to apply for a national development zone are indeed immature, but it is different if it is declared with a project.

A project with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars is placed in this era, it is a great big project, Wu Xiaozheng does not believe it, with such a large project declaration, the state will also adopt a one-size-fits-all policy on the Changshi Economic Development Zone.

He is preparing to let Liao Hongcai go against the trend.
