This is about the airport.

Chen Guan then talked about the highway issue.

Here Chen Guan raises the question of what to expect from the future highway network.

Chen Guan said that things are developing and changing. At the beginning of the reform and opening up, there was not a single vehicle in a township in Mingshui, and in addition to the operating vehicles of the transportation company, there were only vehicles of the county party committee, the county government, and the troops stationed in Mingshui. Now the situation has changed, due to the results of more than ten years of reform and opening up, Mingshui's vehicles are growing geometrically. And this momentum will continue as the economy grows. In the future, most families may have their own vehicles. There is an example in this regard, there is an administrative village in the Sangyuan mining area, and the average household has two cars, and this matter has been reported to the provincial government. Tonghua Town, Mingshui County, now has a lot of vehicles, each mine owner has his own car, individual locals who have made a fortune with the mine have also begun to buy cars, and there are many cars pulling ore there from other places. In the future, there will be more and more vehicles in Tonghua Town, and there will be more and more good cars.

Chen Guan also said for example: In the past, in Longwan Town, Mingshui County, in addition to a few vehicles from the town government, there were only a few trucks of self-employed individuals engaged in transportation. Now due to the development of Wulongyu tourist attractions, due to the construction of Longwan Town to Wulongyu tourist highway, the purchase of special vans for soliciting has become a new way to make money, specifically run the county town to Longwan Town, Longwan Town to Wulongyu, the benefits are very good. As a result, not only the tourists who come to travel, but also the people of Wulongshan District who go to Longwan Town to catch the market or go to the county seat, there are very few people who are no longer able to rush and pull rack cars to transport goods as in the past, and the entire production and lifestyle has changed. It is conceivable that after the arrival of the peak tourist season in the spring of the New Year, there will be more private vehicles dedicated to serving the Wulongyu tourist attractions. Why is this happening? It is because these people have seen business opportunities from Wulongyu Tourist Scenic Area, which is profitable, so they borrow money and loans to buy cars!

Chen Guan said: According to the current situation, Mingshui is a poor area, the economy is underdeveloped, the population base is not large, from a common sense to say that the construction of expressways investment is large, the recovery of funds is slow, obviously inappropriate, in comparison, or reroute and rebuild the highway is more pragmatic. However, this view is based on the reality of the situation and lacks foresight!

This is to answer the questions of Liu Zhiqian, director of the National Development and Reform Commission, and Wang Pingjun, director of the Finance Bureau!

From the present point of view, in June 1993, the Ministry of Communications put forward the construction plan of the national backbone expressway network with two vertical, two horizontal and three key sections at the Shandong Conference, which was the first time that the planning guidance for the construction of the national expressway was put forward, and it was the basis for the construction of the expressway in the future. However, this plan is based on the actual construction of expressways in the initial stage, which is basic and not long-term enough. In a few years, the Ministry of Transport itself will abandon this plan. Because this plan is far from meeting China's demand for highways. China is so big, with 9.6 million square kilometers from north to south and east to west, and the highway trunk lines with three important sections of two vertical and two horizontal sections cannot meet the needs at all! The reason is very simple, the highway is the booster of the economy, there is no developed highway network, economic development is two concepts, that is the gap between advanced and backward, that is the difference between rich and poor, why some places are connected to highways and some places are not connected? Isn't that artificially caused by different policies and inequality between the rich and the poor?

When it comes to this, Chen Guan said regretfully: "It's a pity, I haven't driven or sat on the highway yet, the understanding of the highway is only at the level of some information and knowledge, I believe that there must be leaders here who have the opportunity to see the speed of the expressway, have seen the advantages of integration brought to Shanghai and Jiading because of the opening of the Shanghai-Jiading Expressway, and have seen the superiority of the Shenyang-Dalian Expressway, Jinan-Qingdao Expressway and Beijing-Tianjin-Tangzhou Expressway, and I believe that the leaders have a deeper understanding of the expressway than me." What I want to say is that since the Lianhuo Expressway has started construction and implemented in sections, it will inevitably pass through us in the future, so the high-speed from Sangyuan to Mingshui that we envision is not just a short-distance expressway, but a part of the connection to Lianhuo Expressway and integrated into the national backbone high-speed network. For example, if the vehicles in the Shangluo area of Qin Province want to go to Shandong, they will inevitably choose to go to the Mingshui Expressway and then get off the expressway in Xuzhou. If we do not integrate into the high-speed network, that is, only charge the toll from Mingshui to Sangyuan, if we integrate into the high-speed network, then we only issue a pass card, and the vehicle will pay the fee uniformly outside the provincial border or Xuzhou. In the same way, Shangluo's car returned from Shandong, from Xuzhou Shanglianhuo Expressway to Mingshui Expressway, and all the tolls were to be completed at the Mingshui Exit Toll Station. That is to say, as long as our Sangyuan to Mingshui Expressway and Lianhuo Expressway are connected, the future traffic flow is absolutely guaranteed, and we can also participate in the dividend distribution of the entire expressway network. That is to say, a short short-distance expressway from Mingshui to Sangyuan, connecting Weinan, Shangluo, Wancheng, and the surrounding counties and cities of the ancient capital, drives the economy of a large area, and also provides strong support for the high-speed traffic flow and economic benefits! ”

That's a matter of vision. When Wang Pingjun, director of the Finance Bureau, calculated the traffic flow from Mingshui to Sangyuan and Sangyuan to Mingshui, basically in the circle of Mingshui and Sangyuan, and at most a Shuiquan City, Chen Guan was planning to make a circle in several surrounding cities, and the results were naturally very different.

Chen Guan paused, as if considering his words, and after a while, he continued: "As for investment funds, Shuiquan may not be rich in finance, but the people are not short of money. There are so many millionaires, multimillionaires, and even billionaires in the Sangyuan mining area, and the money can't find the right investment direction. If we adopt a market approach to solve market problems, the investment problem can be easily solved! If the city can take the lead in setting up, or agreeing to the establishment of a highway limited stock company with private capital, it will not be a big problem to raise funds for the Sangyuan-Mingshui Expressway. Even, the newly established joint-stock company can negotiate with Gudu, Wancheng, Weinan, Shangluo and other places to build a highway network connecting several regions, and connect it with the Lianhuo Expressway, so that it can actively apply for listing and raise funds in the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets. In a word, lack of money is not a reason, the key is whether there is a policy or not! ”

To illustrate the problem, Chen Guan added: "If we don't start building the highway from Sangyuan to Mingshui now, once the Lianhuo Expressway is completed and opened to traffic, the huge economic benefits will stimulate the province to set up a highway group company, unify planning, monopolize the right of way, and then develop and build, list the company, and raise funds through the stock market." To put it bluntly, we don't do it now, and if we miss this opportunity, we won't have anything to do. At that time, we can only cooperate with other people's land acquisition and demolition, and pay financial matching funds for others in accordance with the policy! On the contrary, if we do it, even if the province organizes a group company at that time, it will also require that the high-speed that we have built be included, and adopt the method of allocating shares or directly paying for redemption to recover our equity, and our investment will not only be recovered, but may also have a large increase in value! ”

After Chen Guan finished speaking, Mayor Yu said: "Chen Guan, the matter of building a high-speed is indeed debatable. First, the investment is too large and it is difficult to obtain financing; Second, if this expressway wants to play a good role, as you just said, it must be connected to the Lianhuo expressway. And when the Lianhuo Expressway can be repaired to Sangyuan, and then to Xijing, is not something we can decide; Third, the highway construction period is long, don't look at the distance from Sangyuan to Mingshui is only 40 kilometers or 50 kilometers, but it is bound to need to dig tunnels and build large bridges, and a large tunnel may not be successfully completed in one to two years. We now urgently need to change the traffic situation in Mingshui to solve the problem of traffic pressure during the peak tourist season, and the shorter the time, the better. There is a contradiction in the middle, building a high-speed far water does not quench the thirst of the near! ”

Shen Quan, secretary of the municipal party committee, pondered for a while, and also said: "I have walked on the Beijing-Tianjin-Tang Expressway, also walked on the Jinan-Qingdao Expressway, and visited the United States, and the benefits of the expressway can be regarded as witnessing with my own eyes." Building highways should be said to be the best choice, and it is indeed able to drive the economy. Now there is a problem, that is, if the highway between Sangyuan and Mingshui is built, according to Chen Guan, it may be difficult to raise funds to set up a professional company and raise funds to build the road. Although it is true that a group of billionaires, multimillionaires, and millionaires have been born in our Sangyuan mining area, the vast majority of these people are private mine owners, and they are unwilling to show their wealth, on the contrary, they are trying to transfer their funds to other places, and they want to mobilize them to invest in the construction of highways, which is very difficult! This is a question of Chinese's habits of thinking, not just whether there is a policy or not. I am thinking that although the investment in building expressways is large, the construction period is long, and although the investment in building ordinary highways is small, the investment is recovered quickly, and the construction period is short, there are indeed problems such as long mileage, long driving time, and many potential safety hazards. Is it possible to find a compromise between highways and ordinary roads? ”

As soon as Chen Guan heard this, he felt cold in his heart, knowing that he had said so much, he couldn't say that it had no effect at all, but the effect was not very big, mainly because Secretary Shen and Mayor Yu still considered the problem that it was difficult to raise 1.1 billion investment funds!

After thinking for a while, Chen Guan, who was still standing, replied stubbornly: "There must be a compromise." We can build a fast passage from the water spring to the mulberry garden and the open water, with four lanes in both directions, the route is as straight as possible, and a separation zone is set in the middle. In this way, the speed of the vehicle can be increased, the driving time can be shortened, and the safety factor can be improved. There are two shortcomings, one is that it cannot be fully enclosed, the safety and speed are not as good as the high-speed, and the accuracy of the information of the road condition detection is not as good as the high-speed; Second, the fast-track fees cannot be sustained, and once the country develops to a certain extent, it may prohibit the current pattern of loans to build roads and repay loans by charging fees, and prohibit the collection of fees. The highway does not have this problem, because it is a corporatized operation, the right of way is a commodity, and it will always be charged, unless our national strength can surpass that of the United States, it may stop high-speed tolling! ”

As soon as Chen Guan said the fast channel, the eyes of the people in the venue lit up.

In Zhang Deqing and Wang Menglong's mind, it doesn't matter whether the highway is repaired or not, as long as a highway can be rebuilt, the goal will be achieved. Now it seems that due to the Wulongyu tourist attraction and the idea of rebuilding the Dayun Temple and building the statue of the Buddha, the leaders tend to have the same understanding of improving the traffic situation in Mingshui, but there are differences in the choice plan. Now that there's a compromise fast-track solution, what are you waiting for?

Zhang Deqing immediately said: "I suggest considering the fast-track plan. Although it is not as good as the expressway, it is wider than the existing national highway and the mileage is shorter, and the investment is likely to be similar to the construction of the national highway, and the financial pressure is small! ”

Chen Guan said: "The construction of fast lanes can only be used as an auxiliary measure for the expressway, and it is still necessary to make up our minds to build the expressway!" ”

This Chen Guan is really not dead in the heart of the Yellow River!

The debriefing meeting lasted all morning!

At the end of the day, Shen Quan and Yu Yan spoke separately and summarized the results of the report meeting.

Yu Yan said in his speech that reason is not clear, and things are not clear. After the morning report meeting, everyone formed a consensus on the reconstruction of Dayun Temple and the statue of the Great Buddha. A basic consensus has been formed on the construction of Shuiquan Airport, and it is believed that we should seize the opportunity, organize a special working team, perform its responsibilities, and actively strive for it; On the construction of the Sangyuan to Mingshui Expressway, the idea has been clarified, that is, it should be built, in order to use the expressway to drive the flow of people and logistics in Mingshui, Sangyuan and their surrounding areas, and revitalize the economy of the region. However, there are priorities, and the top priority is to solve the bottleneck of open water transportation as quickly as possible. According to this principle, it is inclined to build the Shuiquan to Mingshui Shuiming fast track first, and the fund-raising method adopted is to strive for the support of the state and the province to support a part of the funds, Shuiquan City, Kuwayuan County, and Mingshui County are equipped with a little finance, and the rest of the shortfall funds are raised by the enterprises. After the fast track is put into operation and certain benefits are obtained, the construction of the Sangyuan to Mingshui Expressway will be prepared. As for the railway from Sangyuan to Mingshui, for the time being, after the completion of the Dayun Temple and the statue of the Buddha, the annual reception volume of the Wulongyu tourist attraction has indeed reached 500,000 people, and then the issue of repairing the railway will be studied.

In his speech, he pointed out that it is necessary to set up two command centers of Shuiquan Airport and Shuiming Fast Track, with him as political commissar and Mayor Yu as commander, Wang Wenhua, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, as the first deputy commander of Shuiquan Airport, Lei Jian, executive vice mayor, as the first deputy commander of Shuiming Fast Track, and Xue Liben, deputy mayor in charge of transportation, as deputy commander. In addition, the establishment of the reconstruction of Dayun Temple, Fengjian Buddha statue project headquarters, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, Minister of Propaganda Li Lide as the commander, in charge of culture, education and health deputy mayor Lei Jie, Mingshui County Party Secretary Zhang Deqing as the deputy commander. After the meeting, the three headquarters began to transfer personnel, set up offices, and quickly put into work!

The speeches of Secretary Shen and Mayor Yu are equivalent to opening the prelude to the three projects of Shuiquan Airport, Shuiming Fast Track, and the reconstruction of Dayun Temple! This is about the airport.

Chen Guan then talked about the highway issue.

Chen Guan said: According to the current situation, Mingshui is a poor area, the economy is underdeveloped, the population base is not large, from a common sense to say that the construction of expressways investment is large, the recovery of funds is slow, obviously inappropriate, in comparison, or reroute and rebuild the highway is more pragmatic. However, this view is based on the reality of the situation and lacks foresight!

This is to answer the questions of Liu Zhiqian, director of the National Development and Reform Commission, and Wang Pingjun, director of the Finance Bureau!

From the present point of view, in June 1993, the Ministry of Communications put forward the construction plan of the national backbone expressway network with two vertical, two horizontal and three key sections at the Shandong Conference, which was the first time that the planning guidance for the construction of the national expressway was put forward, and it was the basis for the construction of the expressway in the future. However, this plan is based on the actual construction of expressways in the initial stage, which is basic and not long-term enough. In a few years, the Ministry of Transport itself will abandon this plan. Because this plan is far from meeting China's demand for highways. China is so big, with 9.6 million square kilometers from north to south and east to west, and the highway trunk lines with three important sections of two vertical and two horizontal sections cannot meet the needs at all! The reason is very simple, the highway is the booster of the economy, there is no developed highway network, economic development is two concepts, that is the gap between advanced and backward, that is the difference between rich and poor, why some places are connected to highways and some places are not connected? Isn't that artificially caused by different policies and inequality between the rich and the poor?

When it comes to this, Chen Guan said regretfully: "It's a pity, I haven't driven or sat on the highway yet, the understanding of the highway is only at the level of some information and knowledge, I believe that there must be leaders here who have the opportunity to see the speed of the expressway, have seen the advantages of integration brought to Shanghai and Jiading because of the opening of the Shanghai-Jiading Expressway, and have seen the superiority of the Shenyang-Dalian Expressway, Jinan-Qingdao Expressway and Beijing-Tianjin-Tangzhou Expressway, and I believe that the leaders have a deeper understanding of the expressway than me." What I want to say is that since the Lianhuo Expressway has started construction and implemented in sections, it will inevitably pass through us in the future, so the high-speed from Sangyuan to Mingshui that we envision is not just a short-distance expressway, but a part of the connection to Lianhuo Expressway and integrated into the national backbone high-speed network. For example, if the vehicles in the Shangluo area of Qin Province want to go to Shandong, they will inevitably choose to go to the Mingshui Expressway and then get off the expressway in Xuzhou. If we do not integrate into the high-speed network, that is, only charge the toll from Mingshui to Sangyuan, if we integrate into the high-speed network, then we only issue a pass card, and the vehicle will pay the fee uniformly outside the provincial border or Xuzhou. In the same way, Shangluo's car returned from Shandong, from Xuzhou Shanglianhuo Expressway to Mingshui Expressway, and all the tolls were to be completed at the Mingshui Exit Toll Station. That is to say, as long as our Sangyuan to Mingshui Expressway and Lianhuo Expressway are connected, the future traffic flow is absolutely guaranteed, and we can also participate in the dividend distribution of the entire expressway network. That is to say, a short short-distance expressway from Mingshui to Sangyuan, connecting Weinan, Shangluo, Wancheng, and the surrounding counties and cities of the ancient capital, drives the economy of a large area, and also provides strong support for the high-speed traffic flow and economic benefits! ”

That's a matter of vision. When Wang Pingjun, director of the Finance Bureau, calculated the traffic flow from Mingshui to Sangyuan and Sangyuan to Mingshui, basically in the circle of Mingshui and Sangyuan, and at most a Shuiquan City, Chen Guan was planning to make a circle in several surrounding cities, and the results were naturally very different.

Chen Guan paused, as if considering his words, and after a while, he continued: "As for investment funds, Shuiquan may not be rich in finance, but the people are not short of money. There are so many millionaires, multimillionaires, and even billionaires in the Sangyuan mining area, and the money can't find the right investment direction. If we adopt a market approach to solve market problems, the investment problem can be easily solved! If the city can take the lead in setting up, or agreeing to the establishment of a highway limited stock company with private capital, it will not be a big problem to raise funds for the Sangyuan-Mingshui Expressway. Even, the newly established joint-stock company can negotiate with Gudu, Wancheng, Weinan, Shangluo and other places to build a highway network connecting several regions, and connect it with the Lianhuo Expressway, so that it can actively apply for listing and raise funds in the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets. In a word, lack of money is not a reason, the key is whether there is a policy or not! ”

To illustrate the problem, Chen Guan added: "If we don't start building the highway from Sangyuan to Mingshui now, once the Lianhuo Expressway is completed and opened to traffic, the huge economic benefits will stimulate the province to set up a highway group company, unify planning, monopolize the right of way, and then develop and build, list the company, and raise funds through the stock market." To put it bluntly, we don't do it now, and if we miss this opportunity, we won't have anything to do. At that time, we can only cooperate with other people's land acquisition and demolition, and pay financial matching funds for others in accordance with the policy! On the contrary, if we do it, even if the province organizes a group company at that time, it will also require that the high-speed that we have built be included, and adopt the method of allocating shares or directly paying for redemption to recover our equity, and our investment will not only be recovered, but may also have a large increase in value! ”

After Chen Guan finished speaking, Mayor Yu said: "Chen Guan, the matter of building a high-speed is indeed debatable. First, the investment is too large and it is difficult to obtain financing; Second, if this expressway wants to play a good role, as you just said, it must be connected to the Lianhuo expressway. And when the Lianhuo Expressway can be repaired to Sangyuan, and then to Xijing, is not something we can decide; Third, the highway construction period is long, don't look at the distance from Sangyuan to Mingshui is only 40 kilometers or 50 kilometers, but it is bound to need to dig tunnels and build large bridges, and a large tunnel may not be successfully completed in one to two years. We now urgently need to change the traffic situation in Mingshui to solve the problem of traffic pressure during the peak tourist season, and the shorter the time, the better. There is a contradiction in the middle, building a high-speed far water does not quench the thirst of the near! ”

Shen Quan, secretary of the municipal party committee, pondered for a while, and also said: "I have walked on the Beijing-Tianjin-Tang Expressway, also walked on the Jinan-Qingdao Expressway, and visited the United States, and the benefits of the expressway can be regarded as witnessing with my own eyes." Building highways should be said to be the best choice, and it is indeed able to drive the economy. Now there is a problem, that is, if the highway between Sangyuan and Mingshui is built, according to Chen Guan, it may be difficult to raise funds to set up a professional company and raise funds to build the road. Although it is true that a group of billionaires, multimillionaires, and millionaires have been born in our Sangyuan mining area, the vast majority of these people are private mine owners, and they are unwilling to show their wealth, on the contrary, they are trying to transfer their funds to other places, and they want to mobilize them to invest in the construction of highways, which is very difficult! This is a question of Chinese's habits of thinking, not just whether there is a policy or not. I am thinking that although the investment in building expressways is large, the construction period is long, and although the investment in building ordinary highways is small, the investment is recovered quickly, and the construction period is short, there are indeed problems such as long mileage, long driving time, and many potential safety hazards. Is it possible to find a compromise between highways and ordinary roads? ”

As soon as Chen Guan heard this, he felt cold in his heart, knowing that he had said so much, he couldn't say that it had no effect at all, but the effect was not very big, mainly because Secretary Shen and Mayor Yu still considered the problem that it was difficult to raise 1.1 billion investment funds!

After thinking for a while, Chen Guan, who was still standing, replied stubbornly: "There must be a compromise." We can build a fast passage from the water spring to the mulberry garden and the open water, with four lanes in both directions, the route is as straight as possible, and a separation zone is set in the middle. In this way, the speed of the vehicle can be increased, the driving time can be shortened, and the safety factor can be improved. There are two shortcomings, one is that it cannot be fully enclosed, the safety and speed are not as good as the high-speed, and the accuracy of the information of the road condition detection is not as good as the high-speed; Second, the fast-track fees cannot be sustained, and once the country develops to a certain extent, it may prohibit the current pattern of loans to build roads and repay loans by charging fees, and prohibit the collection of fees. The highway does not have this problem, because it is a corporatized operation, the right of way is a commodity, and it will always be charged, unless our national strength can surpass that of the United States, it may stop high-speed tolling! ”

As soon as Chen Guan said the fast channel, the eyes of the people in the venue lit up.

In Zhang Deqing and Wang Menglong's mind, it doesn't matter whether the highway is repaired or not, as long as a highway can be rebuilt, the goal will be achieved. Now it seems that due to the Wulongyu tourist attraction and the idea of rebuilding the Dayun Temple and building the statue of the Buddha, the leaders tend to have the same understanding of improving the traffic situation in Mingshui, but there are differences in the choice plan. Now that there's a compromise fast-track solution, what are you waiting for?

Zhang Deqing immediately said: "I suggest considering the fast-track plan. Although it is not as good as the expressway, it is wider than the existing national highway and the mileage is shorter, and the investment is likely to be similar to the construction of the national highway, and the financial pressure is small! ”

Chen Guan said: "The construction of fast lanes can only be used as an auxiliary measure for the expressway, and it is still necessary to make up our minds to build the expressway!" ”

This Chen Guan is really not dead in the heart of the Yellow River!

The debriefing meeting lasted all morning!

At the end of the day, Shen Quan and Yu Yan spoke separately and summarized the results of the report meeting.

Yu Yan said in his speech that reason is not clear, and things are not clear. After the morning report meeting, everyone formed a consensus on the reconstruction of Dayun Temple and the statue of the Great Buddha. A basic consensus has been formed on the construction of Shuiquan Airport, and it is believed that we should seize the opportunity, organize a special working team, perform its responsibilities, and actively strive for it; On the construction of the Sangyuan to Mingshui Expressway, the idea has been clarified, that is, it should be built, in order to use the expressway to drive the flow of people and logistics in Mingshui, Sangyuan and their surrounding areas, and revitalize the economy of the region. However, there are priorities, and the top priority is to solve the bottleneck of open water transportation as quickly as possible. According to this principle, it is inclined to build the Shuiquan to Mingshui Shuiming fast track first, and the fund-raising method adopted is to strive for the support of the state and the province to support a part of the funds, Shuiquan City, Kuwayuan County, and Mingshui County are equipped with a little finance, and the rest of the shortfall funds are raised by the enterprises. After the fast track is put into operation and certain benefits are obtained, the construction of the Sangyuan to Mingshui Expressway will be prepared. As for the railway from Sangyuan to Mingshui, for the time being, after the completion of the Dayun Temple and the statue of the Buddha, the annual reception volume of the Wulongyu tourist attraction has indeed reached 500,000 people, and then the issue of repairing the railway will be studied.

In his speech, he pointed out that it is necessary to set up two command centers of Shuiquan Airport and Shuiming Fast Track, with him as political commissar and Mayor Yu as commander, Wang Wenhua, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, as the first deputy commander of Shuiquan Airport, Lei Jian, executive vice mayor, as the first deputy commander of Shuiming Fast Track, and Xue Liben, deputy mayor in charge of transportation, as deputy commander. In addition, the establishment of the reconstruction of Dayun Temple, Fengjian Buddha statue project headquarters, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, Minister of Propaganda Li Lide as the commander, in charge of culture, education and health deputy mayor Lei Jie, Mingshui County Party Secretary Zhang Deqing as the deputy commander. After the meeting, the three headquarters began to transfer personnel, set up offices, and quickly put into work!

The speeches of Secretary Shen and Mayor Yu are equivalent to opening the prelude to the three projects of Shuiquan Airport, Shuiming Fast Track, and the reconstruction of Dayun Temple!
