Chapter 498: Sympathy
The tired deputy mayor and the director of the education bureau came to Liao Fanmin's office, and even Zhang Dongtao's face was a little pale, working day and night, which made them really tired.
Throughout the morning, Liao Fanmin and several people discussed the implementation plan of the Shuangpu Nine Project, under the insistence of Liao Fanmin, the plan was finally determined, the mayor's office meeting and the executive meeting of the municipal government were held immediately, on the day of the end of the executive meeting of the municipal government, the Provincial Department of Finance allocated funds in place, a total of 80 million, including 50 million concession funds for senior officials, and 30 million allocated by the Provincial Department of Finance.
Liao Fanmin was very grateful to Liu Fangsheng's senior officials, and he knew the origin of the special funds for senior officials, which Liu Fangsheng allocated from the funds that he could directly approve.
On the second day of the arrival of funds, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee convened and adopted the implementation plan of the Municipal Government's Shuangpu Nine Project.
To Liao Fanmin's surprise, the day after the end of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, Zhang Dengcai came to his office.
After accepting the task, Zhang Dengcai became familiar with the plan that night, listened to the reports of the deputy mayor in charge of culture, education and health, the director of the Planning Commission, the director of the Finance Bureau, and the director of the Education Bureau.
Looking at Zhang Dengcai, whose eyes were a little red, Liao Fanmin was still quite moved, and at this moment he was completely relieved that the Shuangpu Nine Project would definitely be successfully completed under the leadership of Zhang Dengcai.
"Mayor Liao, I am just in contact with the project of Shuangpu Jiu, yesterday I read a lot of information, but also listened to a lot of reports, for the municipal government's plan of Shuangpu Jiu, some views, yesterday's Standing Committee also authorized, I am the person in charge, if you feel that the implementation plan is inappropriate, you can decide to make appropriate adjustments. ”
Liao Fanmin looked at Zhang Dengcai, paused slightly, and then spoke.
"Of course, there must be adjustments in individual aspects, and this is all the power given to Secretary Zhang by the Standing Committee. ”
"No, I feel that there is a problem with the direction of the whole program. ”
Liao Fanmin immediately understood what Zhang Dengcai meant, and it seems that Zhang Dengcai has really gone deep into the plan.
"Oh, Secretary Zhang sees something wrong. ”
"Then I will say it bluntly, the country's requirements for the Shuangpu Nine Project are a high starting point, high requirements, full coverage, that is to say, to take into account all the primary and secondary schools in the countryside, but the implementation plan of the municipal government, it seems that this is not the case, there is a great emphasis, I have calculated, there are 377 rural primary and secondary schools in the city, but the municipal government plan is really involved, only 212, and 165 rural primary schools, almost not taken into account, this is not good. ”
"Secretary Zhang, why don't you think so? ”
"The state requires full coverage, then we must implement it in accordance with the requirements of the state, if the funds are not enough, even if the municipal party committee and municipal government are in debt, they must implement the requirements of the state, rather than implementing the above policies on the basis of funds, Mayor Liao, this is a political problem, you have worked hard to get 80 million yuan from the province, but you can't fully implement the requirements of the higher authorities because you are afraid of debts. ”
"Secretary Zhang, you are wrong, even if the funds are sufficient, I will not fully follow the requirements of my superiors. ”
"I really don't understand, Mayor Liao, I can tell you, although our relationship is not ordinary, although I fully support your work, but on the issue of principle, I will not budge. ”
"Don't worry, Secretary Zhang, after listening to my reasons, you will make a decision. ”
Liao Fanmin handed Zhang Dengcai a cigarette, and after the two lit the cigarette, Liao Fanmin spoke.
"Secretary Zhang, the country's policy is considered from the perspective of the overall situation, but the situation in each place is different, so almost all the policy requirements of the country are implemented in combination with the local reality. ”
"No matter how poor you can't be poor education, no matter how hard you can't be a child, if I don't have such an understanding, I won't spend so much effort to implement the Shuangpu Nine project, to be honest, the current situation of Shuangpu Jiu in Linfeng City, is not caused by me, and I have no direct relationship, even if the superior is held accountable, I can easily get out. ”
"But I still took the responsibility, and I said that because I think education is a century-old plan, I can't delay it. ”
When Liao Fanmin said this, Zhang Dengcai's expression became more and more strange.
"Mayor Liao, then I don't understand why the city government's plan is like this. ”
Liao Fanmin waved his hand.
"Secretary Zhang, don't worry, listen to me. ”
"First of all, let's point out the fact that the number of school-age students in the city has begun to decline since the beginning of the 2000 years, although this trend is not very obvious, but the number is really decreasing, you must know this, because the plan mentions this number. ”
"Let's look at the reality again, in the 70s and early 80s, because there was no restriction on the family planning policy, the number of school-age primary and secondary school students increased greatly, of course, I barely belonged to that group, at that time the school resources were highly tight, I remember when I was a child in the city primary school, there were more than 70 people in the class, the classroom was very crowded. ”
"Most of the people born in the 70s and 80s got married and started families, but the family planning policy has been fully implemented, and urban residents can only have one child, and only two children are allowed in rural areas. ”
"The family planning policy has been implemented for more than 10 years, Secretary Zhang, what kind of consequences do you think will be in the next few years? ”
Zhang Dengcai nodded slightly, somewhat understanding.
"Secretary Zhang, I think the number of school-age students in rural areas will decrease year by year, and this trend will come soon, and with the increase in the number of migrant workers in rural areas, parents will earn money, and will send their children to primary schools in towns and towns with better conditions, or even to primary schools in urban areas. ”
"The number of students studying in village primary schools will drop sharply. ”
"When we were discussing the plan, I also made a special analysis, and I think this trend has formed. ”
"The reason why I asked the Education Bureau and the Planning Commission to re-investigate and reformulate the plan for Shuangpu Jiu, and to find out in detail the population and number of students in each village in the city, so as to decide the final plan for Shuangpu Jiu, is to say that the future is in mind. ”
"Linfeng City originally said that the national poor counties and cities are very difficult financially, but no matter how difficult it is, education must also be invested, but the investment must have a real effect, the form of pepper noodles is not suitable for us here, it doesn't matter if rich places take more money, and they won't feel distressed, we can't. ”
"I think that some remote and small villages, with the passage of time, there is no need to set up primary schools, the city's educational resources must be integrated, the city currently has 377 rural primary and secondary schools, when the time can be retained 200, is already the limit. ”
"Once the educational resources are integrated, the same amount of money is invested financially, and the effect will be even greater. ”
"Therefore, when formulating the plan, I asked the education department to conduct a survey, focusing on those large-scale and concentrated primary and secondary schools, focusing on investing in these places, slightly more primary and secondary schools, appropriate investment, renovating classrooms, purchasing new desks and chairs, slightly improving school conditions, and remote places, it is a simple renovation, which will not cost too much money. ”
"And I've thought about it, at most two to three years, the city's educational resources need to be integrated. ”
Secretary Zhang may feel strange, why the primary school in the market town, but also to build student dormitories, in fact, said to prepare for the integration of educational resources, this time due to the lack of funds for Shuangpu Jiu, if there are enough funds, some relatively concentrated, large-scale villages, also to build student dormitories, convenient for other villages to school children to live in school. ”
。。。
After Liao Fanmin finished speaking, Zhang Dengcai nodded again and again.
"Well said, said so well, I really didn't think of this layer, it's really not appropriate to sprinkle pepper noodles, and now the money invested in those remote schools will be wasted after two to three years, it's really a pity, your analysis is very accurate, in fact, I have heard of the decrease in the number of students in rural primary schools, but I didn't think of this layer, some villages only have two or three hundred people, and there are also primary schools, and there will only be a few children in the village in the future, how can it be possible to maintain a primary school, the waste is too great. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Deng snuffed out the cigarette in his hand.
"Mayor Liao, I'm convinced, but I still have to remind you that there is a hard policy above, although you are combined with the actual local situation, but sometimes it is not easy to explain, if the superior inspection team must find trouble, it is also problematic, fortunately, I am the general person in charge of the city's Shuangpu Nine Project, this responsibility is borne by me, who wants to find trouble, accountability, I bear all the responsibility. ”
"Secretary Zhang, how can this work, after all, it is a plan formulated by the municipal government. ”
"There is nothing that can't be done, this matter is decided like this, you are really doing practical things for Linfeng City, I can completely see it, Linfeng City can't do without you, as long as it is within my ability, I can help you take responsibility, I must rush to the front, Mayor Liao, I finally remind you that the situation in the city is only calm on the surface, there are some undercurrents below, invisible, once these undercurrents surge out, it will make you and I unable to guard against it." ”
Liao Fanmin sent Zhang Dengcai downstairs, watched Zhang Dengcai get into the car, watched the car leave the city government compound, and then turned around and went back to the office.
Zhang Deng is a real man, and he is also a person who can do practical things, but unfortunately when he arrived in Linfeng City, he was forced by reality and held back for a long time, but this time he seized the opportunity and was finally able to let go of his hands and do a big job.
Zhang Dengcai is heart-to-heart, of course Liao Fanmin is also sincere, Lin Feng City is really held accountable for the Shuangpu Nine Project, and Liao Fanmin can even go directly to Liu Fangsheng's senior officials to express their grievances.
