Chapter 574 The First Economic Forum

(Recommended books: "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty Dragon" and "The Left and Right of Official Fortune") When the Propaganda Department once again offered the gold-absorbing trick of photography, it was unexpectedly stolen the limelight by many merchants. Last year, the Propaganda Department made money, to Xingyuan people to stimulate a lot of stimulation, this year many people have a heart, early to buy a good camera, now learn and sell, for tourists to take pictures.

The most convenient thing is that the Propaganda Department purchased two state-of-the-art printing equipment and set up a special printing agency, where all the photos at the Ice and Snow Festival were printed. Countless photos have made the printing agency earn enough, and the propaganda department has not been hurt too much.

The biggest change is that the two-person performance is the two-person performance, last year it was all free performances, and this year there are many small theaters, and the two-person performance has begun to charge. Most of these small theaters are residents on the street, who temporarily pick up their rooms and do not do business for temporary rental, and the daily rent of this kind of temporary rental house is as high as 100 yuan!

That's one month's rent! Those two-person artists are the most aggressive, and they have rented this kind of daily rental house. In the eyes of these artists who run the rivers and lakes, at most they are just losing their rent, and as long as there is an audience, they may be able to make a profit.

At first, there were doubts about whether anyone could watch it, after all, most of the tourists came from Guanli, and everyone doubted that there was a market for this kind of art that was popular in the three Kanto provinces. Unexpectedly, from the beginning to the end of the Ice and Snow Festival, the small theaters were never empty, and they were full every night.

In fact, it is not surprising that these guests who come to travel really can't find any leisure projects in Xingyuan Town at night, plus the two of them are easy to understand, all of them are Mandarin and there is no communication barrier, so they are very popular with tourists.

Those artists who came to Xingyuan County to run the dock tasted the sweetness this time, and every actor made a lot of money in their pockets. Xingyuan County is not without harvest, according to the requirements of Xingyuan County, all the programs performed in the Ice and Snow Festival have sold the copyright to the Propaganda Department of Xingyuan County, and will select excellent programs and make them into two-person transcription tapes for sale.

Don't underestimate these copyrights, they are never-fading goods, and even the older they are, the more valuable these tapes are. At present, the ownership of video tapes in rural areas in the three Kanto provinces is extremely limited, but who knows if there will be any replacement for video recorders in the future?

What's more, with the two of them becoming popular on CCTV, the two have gone from the countryside to the homes of urban residents. This is the group with the most consumption power, and I believe that in the future, the income from these copyrights will definitely not be less than any of the ice and snow festivals.

This year's Ice and Snow Festival has received great help from the provincial and municipal levels, and this time the use of the border prefectures is very limited, and the equipment rented in the previous year is the same. More equipment came from Tongxing City, from Jiangbin City, from the provincial government and the provincial military district. You know, Xingyuan County uses these things to pay rent, who is afraid of burning money?

During the Ice and Snow Festival, the cadres of Xingyuan County were busy, and Liu Feng was not idle, and during the Ice and Snow Festival, the border prefecture officially joined the Northeast Asia Economic Circle Economic Forum. As the initiator of this forum and the special assistant to the secretary general, Liu Feng was so busy that he did not have time to go to Tongxing City to participate in the Standing Committee.

This time no one blamed him, and North Korea and Japan, as observers, attended the first economic forum. Both countries have shown strong interest in this economic forum, and Japan has not yet shaken off the economic recession, and urgently needs to open up the market, and even more so, it needs a high-quality investment environment.

The abundant resources, huge population base, and cheap labor force in the three provinces of Kanto, especially those outstanding labor force laid off from state-owned enterprises, are all the more necessary human resources for engaging in industry. Therefore, the representative of Japan showed great interest in participating for the first time.

For North Korea, Huaxia is the only backing it can rely on, not only to provide it with a sense of security militarily, but also to need Huaxia, an increasingly economically powerful country, to bring it more benefits and opportunities.

Originally, South Korea and Mongolia were also going to be observers, but for various reasons they did not catch up, but at the end of the three-day meeting, representatives of the two countries appeared at the meeting. Liu Feng believes that these two countries will also join the economic forum, which is an era of development, not an era of confrontation, and the economy is the ultimate demand of governments.

Behind the three Kanto provinces is a supermarket with a population of 1.2 billion, and this market is the fattest piece of cake in the world, and it is a cake that has just begun to be cut. Those who don't want to take a bite of this cake must be fools, or stupid to the point of home.

As the host and advocate of the Northeast Asian Economic Circle, Liu Feng is far busier than the Secretary-General. Fortunately, this is Xingyuan County, and Liu Feng has a lot of resources at his disposal, at least there will be no shortage of people. All the guests stayed in the government hotel that had just been renovated on New Year's Eve, and many facilities were not in place, which was already the most luxurious place in Xingyuan County.

The service personnel temporarily seconded from Jiangbin City and Tongxing City served as the main force to entertain VIPs. It is difficult for the women in the original hotel to provide corresponding services for these high-end guests, and most of the seconded waiters can speak foreign languages.

There is no shortage of Russian talents in Hung Yen Province, and as for Korean and Mongolian, it is the language of the ethnic minorities in Hung Yen Province, and it is too easy to find a few Korean and Mongolian girls. Japanese is not a problem, and many rural villages in Hung Yen province have foreign language courses in Japanese instead of English.

The history of being enslaved by the Japanese for 14 years has also left a lot of Japanese talents, so there are three languages in Hung Yen Province at the same time, English, Japanese and Russian, which have become foreign languages for the college entrance examination.

The secretary-general of this economic forum is Qiu Hanfeng, secretary-general of the provincial party committee of Hung Yen province, but this secretary-general is not enthusiastic about this matter: "Isn't it too child's play for an economic forum with international prospects to have its headquarters located in the remote county of Xingyuan?" ”

Liu Feng patiently explained to the Secretary-General: "Joining the Economic Forum, Russia is undoubtedly the most urgent one now, and for the border states, they are the ones abandoned by the Russian mainstream.

The placement of the first economic forum in Xingyuan County is to attract Russians to join, which is the only way for the economic forum to move towards nationalization. With the accession of the border states, this economic forum is no longer for the three provinces of Kanto to entertain themselves. ”

Wang Wandong smiled and asked: "Why do you say that the Russians are the most urgent?" ”

Liu Feng explained seriously: "From the perspective of the external environment for investment, the natural climatic conditions in the Far East are not conducive to attracting investment. The amount of money spent here per 1 ruble of production is much higher than the national average, and the same economic results are spent here about 20% more than in the central regions of Russia, and the cost of doing business is 25% higher.

The natural resources of the Far East have great potential, but they are difficult to exploit. This is particularly evident in the development of mineral resources, most of which are located in remote areas with harsh climate, sparse population, and weak infrastructure, and the huge production costs of enterprises are not difficult to imagine.

The level of infrastructure development in the Far East is not high. The level of infrastructure development is mainly determined by the level of development of transportation, power, communication and credit systems. The main economic center is more than 9,000 kilometers away from Russia and Europe, more than 7,000 kilometers away from the Russian Urals industrial zone, and 6,500 kilometers away from the westernmost tip of Western Siberia. ”

Zhang Tong and Wang Wandong both listened carefully to Liu Feng's explanation, Xu Jia was much more casual, this guy never seemed to have a positive shape in front of Liu Feng, and after Zhang Tong's uncle and secretary arrived, it made Governor Xu relax a lot.

Qiu Hanfeng is not an amateur in economic construction, he also came up step by step at the local level, and was in charge of a city at the first level. It's just that after sitting in the post of secretary general of the provincial party committee for a long time, it seems that many things have become sluggish, especially in the environment of the old team, and the political struggle far exceeds the needs of economic construction.

Now it seems that the new team and the old team are completely two styles and two governing philosophies. These two people's thirst for economic construction made everyone around them feel urgent. Greeting superiors is Qiu Hanfeng's experience as an official over the years, and in the past, it was Nan Qingchun who was a leader who advocated "fighting with others and having endless fun".

At present, it seems that what the new boss needs is economic construction talents, and Qiu Hanfeng can only reluctantly change himself to adapt to his boss. Is it possible to let Secretary Zhang adapt to himself in turn? That's a ridiculous joke!

Liu Feng continued to explain: "The fundamental reasons for the impact of foreign investment in the border states are that the economic structure of the Far East is biased towards heavy industry, and the investment field is not wide, and the economic structure has the characteristics of 'heavy industrialization' and 'raw materials', and the potential investment field is not wide.

The small size and unstable economic situation of the border region make it difficult to guarantee its finances on its own income and rely heavily on financial support from the central government, which makes the Far East very attractive for investment.

The sales market in the region is small, the minimum cost of living is higher than the national average, and the number of residents with monetary income below the minimum cost of living is a high percentage of the total population.

As a result, the purchasing power of residents of the Far East is low compared to the rest of Russia, and the market capacity in the region is relatively small. This is also the failure of Xingyuan County as an export port before, where there are no minimum conditions for product export!

The Russian side concerned is overly sensitive to the economic security of the Far East. The special geographical location makes it convenient for the Far East to carry out economic and trade cooperation with Asia-Pacific countries and participate in the international division of labor in the Asia-Pacific region, especially in Northeast Asia. On the other hand, because it is far away from Russia's central region and is under the direct influence of Asia-Pacific countries, the Russian departments concerned have always been sensitive to the region's economic security. ”

Wang Wandong frowned and asked: "Since the development of raw materials in the border prefecture is difficult and the cost is high, how many opportunities does Dafeng Xingyuan Industrial Development Corporation have to obtain cheap resources from there?" Could it be that after we build many enterprises, the cost of raw materials over there will rise, making it no longer profitable? ”

This is a very important point, in case such a situation happens, the impact on Xingyuan County and even Hung Yen Province will be huge. The billions of foreign investment that Hung Yen Province has just brought in are all imaginary suppliers to the border prefectures, and if this supply chain is broken, the consequences will be catastrophic.

Liu Feng smiled slightly: "The influence of Gale Group on some enterprises is huge, and these are things that cannot be disclosed. I can assure you that there will be no problems with the supply of raw materials in the Frontier Region for fifty years. ”

At this time, even Secretary Zhang Tong is interested, although he knows that Liu Feng's Gale Group has strong capital, but it can have an impact on a country's policy within 50 years, which is not something that can be done with a casual touch of the upper and lower lips.

Zhang Tong smiled: "I know a lot of things, and I know a lot of major secrets, I don't want to probe into the privacy of the Gale Group, I just want to ask, why are you so confident?" ”
