Qi Tianxiang squinted in a daze for a while in such a state of sleep, and when he opened his eyes again, he looked at the signs flashing on the side of the road from time to time, and knew that the convoy had entered the Huayi realm. Qi Tianxiang raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, thinking about it in his heart, knowing that he would get off the highway and officially enter Huayi City in the near future.

Even if there is no roadside signage, Qi Tianxiang can roughly judge the location of the vehicle through the scenery outside the window. A few years ago, Qi Tianxiang dealt with the corruption case in Huayi City, and in the face of a large-scale nest case and a cliff-like cadre, Qi Tianxiang was assigned by the provincial party committee to form a new Huayi City party and government two leading groups, and selected the county and district teams. Over the past few months, Qi Tianxiang has traveled back and forth on this highway for an unknown number of years, and although time has passed, the changes in nature are still slow and traceable. Now I don't dare to say that it is familiar, but it is not difficult to make a basic judgment through the window.

Out of the boundary of Hezhou City, it entered the boundary of Laizhou City, followed by the territory of Huayi City. Although it has entered the mountainous area since the beginning of Hezhou City, the highway is to cross the tunnel in the mountains and mountains, and build bridges in the ditches, but Hezhou City and Laizhou City are facing the barrier of the mountainous area.

But it's constantly developing, and the mountains are constantly being developed, and buildings, factories, and some other facilities can be found everywhere on both sides of the road. Not only is it not lonely, but it also adds a lot of anger.

This is because the urban expansion of Hezhou City is too rapid, the urban construction has developed to the mountainous area, and the mountainous county has already become an urban area, integrated with the urban area, and will build a green new urban area based on cultural, educational and tourism development, the speed and efficiency of development are very large. Laizhou's economic strength is not as good as that of Hezhou City, but because Laizhou only has two districts, the urban area and the steel city, the need to benefit from the land and the development is more urgent, not only the Gangcheng District, even the urban area, but also along both sides of the highway, carried out large-scale construction and extension, almost the mountain development along the highway has been occupied.

Compared with the development momentum of Hezhou City and Laizhou City, Huayi City, which is basically dominated by agriculture, still maintains the original style of mountains, hills and mountains. This is not because Huayi City does not have the requirements and impulses for economic development and progress, but in the development model with the county economy as the main body, the output and benefits of the agricultural economy are really difficult to support the huge development costs and inputs, and there is no ability to lay out the development of mountainous areas on a large scale. This makes the scenery on both sides form a sharp contrast with Hezhou City and Laizhou City.

The mountains on both sides are still the appearance of primitive ecology, but under the guidance of the policy of returning farmland to forest, the mountains are gradually covered by forests, and it is also a lush and vibrant scene. It's still winter, and you can't see the characteristics of the mountains and forests, but in the spring season, the mountains and fields will be covered with pink, becoming a beautiful landscape.

This is Qi Tianxiang fully understood, into the Huayi city boundary, as if entering the beautiful scenery of Huaguo Mountain, between the mountains and ravines on both sides of the highway, the height is scattered with all the peach trees, when the peach blossoms are in full bloom in spring, the eyes are all pink, dozens of kilometers on both sides of the highway are pink flower belts, as if entering the pink fairy tale world.

The blossoming of flowers is still secondary, the main thing is the actual benefits brought by the fruits after pink. The peach trees, which stretch for dozens of kilometers and the places that cannot be seen in the deeper mountains, are covered with peach trees in patches or sporadically, which is one of the important economic incomes of farmers in several nearby counties, and is also an important source of financial income for several counties.

It is a major event that the local government is proud of to become the juice base of a well-known beverage manufacturer in China, and it is also an important measure to attract investment and agricultural development. Although a certain amount of tax revenue has been sacrificed for this goal, it is a real benefit for farmers who own mountains and forests, and it is a final benefit after a long wait. Under the squeeze of the dual policy of returning farmland to forest and afforesting barren mountains and prohibiting felling of forests, it is very difficult for peasants who have the right to contract mountain forests to have the enthusiasm to invest, and special agriculture such as the cultivation of forest fruits and mushrooms has played a certain positive role in stabilizing peasants' incomes.

Along the highway, on one side of the staking mountain development, on the other side is almost primitive forestry planting, the strong contrast brings a clear contrast, the comparison of benefits and benefits is even more obvious. This also brings about a clash of ideas, that is, the issue of development and protection.

This is also a problem that has plagued local party and government leaders for a long time.

The economy must develop, the society must progress, the people's living standards must be improved, and material civilization must be realized through economic contributions. This requires constant expansion and development, relying on underground and above-ground resources to achieve the desired goals. At the same time, the environment should be protected, green mountains and clear waters, blue skies and white clouds should exist, and a happy life should be reflected by the beauty of the natural environment. The contradiction between reality and expectation seems to be irreconcilable, and consciousness and protection consciousness seem so pale and powerless in the face of economic data assessment, which can only be said in words, and it is difficult to implement it in actual work and decision-making.

Not only the local party and government leaders, now Qi Tianxiang is also facing this dilemma, as the governor, in charge of the province's economic and social development, the first thing encountered is the problem of development and protection, and the increase of economic data is a practical problem that must be considered. Although this year's economic data has not yet fully come out, it will not surpass the fact that last year has been determined, and it is already a good result to be on par with last year. The affirmation of the central leaders during the work report can only show the attitude and tolerance of the central government, and there is also a great element of encouragement, but Qi Tianxiang knows very well that stagnation and slow development are not satisfactory to Hehai, a major economic province, at least not very satisfied.

The development and steady improvement of agriculture require a huge investment guarantee of farmland and water conservancy, and in the actual agricultural operation and production mode, the application of heavy chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the tendency of light farmland and soil fertility management also need to start from improving farmland and production mode, which requires huge investment in funds, and to a large extent, it is the investment of governments at all levels. It is an obvious fact that the input in agricultural production is large and the output is low, and it is also an unavoidable practical problem, and without the guidance of the government or the tilt of policies, it is impossible and unrealistic for private capital and social funds to invest in agriculture.

Industry is an indispensable and important support for economic progress, and it has the same basic status as agriculture, and it is also an important link that needs to be paid attention to. Although this year has been deployed in advance, and the timely launch of industrial revitalization has just begun, but just like agricultural development, industrial transformation and the introduction of new projects and new products, from the layout to the production of benefits, there is a rather long cycle, not in the short term can achieve results.

The service industry and the tertiary industry can play a certain role in boosting, but without the stability of the economic foundation of industry and agriculture, consumption will always be a source of water and a tree without roots, and it is still unrealistic to want long-term stability.

The problem of the distribution of these industries is not a very urgent issue, and the biggest problem and contradiction is the issue of economic institutions and the balance of aggregates. Since the market economy, under the leadership of the government and the development of society itself, the number and categories of enterprises have extended to all corners of society, and labor-intensive and low-efficiency enterprises have occupied a large share, not only the homogenization tendency is serious, but the pattern of low-level competition has become more and more severe. In a sense, what needs to be changed is not the growth of quantity, but the adjustment of the structure and the reduction of quantity, and only by becoming bigger and stronger can we resist the competition and fluctuations of the market.

But these are thorny problems, because behind every small and micro enterprise, there is the livelihood of one or several families, which is related to the survival of a large number of workers, and the difficulty of solving it can be imagined. Therefore, in the face of the contradictions in reality, the leaders of many places have adopted an attitude of turning a blind eye to the evasion, as long as there are constantly new areas to expand, the contradictions of reality can be concealed, and the problems can be weakened or disappeared by doing large-scale.

Real estate can become a stable economic support, and play a long-term role in boosting economic development and progress, is a question that Qi Tianxiang has always been skeptical. It is understandable how many years the actual behavior of attracting money can be maintained for an industry that will not produce actual production, an industry that is jointly led by the government, banks, and real estate developers, and the bubble blown up by the speculation of houses used to live in, and the expectation of continuous rise in housing prices. It is undoubtedly insidious and short-sighted to let real estate kidnap the economy, kidnap people's lives, and then kidnap government finances, but it is a sinister and ill-intentioned idea for many people, and it is also a helpless choice for many local governments.

Qi Tianxiang is unwilling to let real estate lead his nose, whether he is the secretary of the municipal party committee in Hezhou or now the governor, he is resisting such short-sightedness and speculation. Not only these, but even the so-called financial innovation and investment are actively resisted. In the past year, not only has he not made any expression about real estate, but he has also taken a cold attitude towards the work of financial institutions as much as possible, which also shows his attitude in a certain sense. Coupled with Qi Tianxiang's concern for agriculture and industry, a kind of orientation has been formed, which intentionally or unintentionally transmits signals, making units and institutions that are good at figuring out the intentions of leaders vigilant.

This is what Qi Tianxiang can do now, and it is also the convenience brought by power, it is clear that slowing down and stepping on the brakes are what he can't do, but he can hint or convey signals to show his attitude and tendency.
