Chapter Eighty-Five: Seven Signs

Chen Dapeng, the new director of the Tengfei Street Office, has been a little depressed recently. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It stands to reason that he is not yet 30 years old this year, and he has become the director of the neighborhood office and has become the leader of the country's most basic party and government organs.

Many leaders at the higher levels have been promoted from the most basic posts of the neighborhood office.

At the initial appointment meeting, the leaders of the district also encouraged him in this way, saying that the street is the most grassroots unit, the closest to the people's lives, and the vast sky that can produce the most achievements.

Tengfei Street is subordinate to Jianwu City Development Zone, is a new urban area, in recent years the city has increased the construction of the new urban area, the infrastructure is very complete, whether it is road traffic or public services, there are obvious advantages over the old city, there are many large enterprises in the district to attract investment, residents are mainly enterprise employees, local young people and immigrants.

It stands to reason that such a place is indeed promising.

Chen Dapeng has only been in office for less than a month, and before he has time to show his skills, he caught up with SARS. He, the director, devoted himself to this, leading his colleagues in the streets, visiting almost one unit after another in the jurisdiction, publicizing and popularizing the above policies and regulations, investigating the situation, offering condolences, and reassuring people's hearts.

The fight against SARS has been effective, but he has another problem.

Economic issues.

The income of the sub-district office comes from two yuan, one is allocated by the higher level finance, and the other is self-generated.

The front piece ensures the wages and daily expenses of the people in the street, and the back piece is the main source of income. Whether the street has money or not depends on whether it has the ability to generate income. When the street is rich, the welfare of those who work in the street is still secondary, and the key is to make all kinds of activities sound and impressive, and it is easier to produce results. Otherwise, if you don't do anything all day long, you just work in the street every day, which doesn't cost money, but you can't get results.

The ability of the street to generate income is actually a soft indicator of the assessment of the superiors. Higher-level leaders generally do not mention it in their mouths, but they must measure it in their hearts, and the subordinates who can reasonably and legally generate income and maximize the benefits of the resources at hand are obviously more favored by the leaders than the subordinates who are silent and content to keep to the results.

The previous director of Tengfei Street was promoted to the district because of his strong ability to generate income, accumulating a large number of assets for the street. It was Chen Dapeng's turn to take over a good stall, but he didn't catch up with the good time, SARS made people panic, more than half of the dozens of storefront houses in the hands of the street could not be rented, and other sporadic industries were also unattended.

In the past two months, in order to fight SARS, the street has spent a lot of money, but there is very little income, if this momentum continues, it will not be long before the once rich take-off street will have a deficit in its own hands.

Once there is a deficit, the impression on the superior leader is too bad, the leader does not care whether you are affected by SARS or not, the task is the task, there is no difficulty to complete, there is difficulty to complete, otherwise why let you be the director? So many streets have been affected by SARS, why can't you take off the streets?

Originally, some people in the district thought that they were too young to be the street chief, and if they caused trouble to the higher-ups during the SARS epidemic, they would give the other party an excuse to attack them.

"I hope SARS will pass soon. "Chen Dapeng also has no good way, during the SARS period, it was deserted, big capital poured into the stock market, small capital was in his hands and watched, and when SARS passed, the situation should improve.

On this morning, Chen Dapeng was taking a few people to the vegetable market in the jurisdiction to inspect the sanitation work, and as soon as he went out, he saw a huge Toyota cruiser parked at the door. A young man with a sturdy figure but an expressionless face got out of the car and opened the back door with an expressionless face.

"Hello, may I ask who is Director Chen?" In the back door, an equally young man walked out, dressed very ordinary, but the whole person looked very energetic, and asked politely.

Chen Dapeng glanced at the imported car, which was worth more than one million, greeted it with a smile, and said, "I'm Chen Dapeng, is there anything wrong?"

"Hello, my surname is Zhao, and this is my business card. Zhao Zejun handed over a business card with both hands.

Since the establishment of Zejian, Zhao Zejun has printed business cards for himself, until he became the godfather of Niu Shi, with nearly one-third of the shares of Changsheng Pharmaceutical, the types of his business cards have been increasing, and there are currently four categories.

The first three categories are the general managers of Zejian and Zeyue legal persons, the deputy general managers and directors of Changsheng Pharmaceutical, and the last category is a hodgepodge, with all his current titles on them, and the heavyweights of the three companies.

For Chen Dapeng, it is the fourth type of business card.

Chen Dapeng quickly glanced at the business card, and after seeing the dense titles on it, he put the business card into his arms and said to the accompanying staff: "Check on you today, I'll talk to Mr. Zhao about something." Mr. Zhao, let's talk about the office upstairs?"

"Good. ”

……

In the upstairs office, Chen Dapeng made tea, and after listening to Zhao Zejun's explanation, he said 'oh'.

From this 'oh' emphasis, it can be heard that Chen Dapeng is not very interested in what Zhao Zejun mentioned.

"Mr. Zhao, the commercial billboards on the side of our street are only seven in total. Now all four have been rented out and three are empty. You're right, SARS, there is no one on the street, and the billboards are indeed not easy to rent, but the other four pieces, we signed a three-year contract with the other party before, even if they don't advertise during the SARS period, the rent still has to be paid. ”

Zhao Zejun went this trip to discuss with Chen Dapeng about the rental of large commercial billboards on the roadside of Tengfei Street, which also belongs to street management.

Chen Dapeng is not very interested, because this piece is not the main income of the street.

The bulk of the income generated by the street is the façade house and a street enterprise, which produces towels, which is also a state-owned enterprise, of course, the scale is very small, and the employees are all disabled, strictly speaking, it should be a social welfare enterprise, and the profit is not large, and the sales channel for towels has become narrower and narrower in the past two years, and the income of the enterprise is limited.

And as he said, most of the brands were rented out last year, and the contracts were signed for several years, and SARS did not have much impact on the rental income of billboards.

Of course, it can't be said that you are completely uninterested, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, and the rent of three brands is also a stable income every year.

"Director Chen, what is the specific rent of those three brands?" Zhao Zejun was not in a hurry, first found an entry point and talked little by little.

Chen Dapeng pondered for a moment and said a number that was quite sincere. This is 20% lower than the price before SARS.

If compared with the price at which Tengfei Street really 'took off' in the big construction two years later, the price given by Chen Dapeng now can almost be said to be a gift.

The reason why Zhao Zejun was the first to find Tengfei Street was because two years later, Jianwu City was building a large number of buildings, and Tengfei Street would be transformed into the largest commercial area in Jianwu City.

The new pedestrian street in Jianwu City, the first Wanda Plaza, and the first cultural tourism street are all within the jurisdiction of Tengfei Street or have direct connections.

If I remember correctly, two or three years later, a deputy head of this district, a young cadre who was promoted from Tengfei Street, seems to have the surname Chen.
