The power structure of Dongjiang Province has reached an inflection point with the fall of Kang Maohui.

First, the thorn in the eyes of the provincial party committee was pulled out, so that Ning Lizhong removed a constraint, and moreover, taking advantage of the good situation, he was also able to carry out the plan in an orderly manner, and a more eye-catching personnel arrangement was to promote Wang Jiansheng of the Qiantang City Construction Planning Bureau to the position of director of the provincial construction department.

Control the traffic entrance, which can be regarded as a weather vane, linked to the fact that he went to Lishan City at the beginning of the year to investigate, and mentioned to Vice Governor Fang Tao on the spot to speed up the construction of the expressway, you can roughly guess his next move.

In fact, the road network project in the southern part of Dongjiang Province was planned and approved in 95 years, and now five years later, the rest of the road has basically been completed, but the section of the road in Lishan City has become a thorny problem.

Lishan City is hilly, is a typical bad geological area, the highway network passes through almost all of the rolling mountains, to the construction has added great difficulty, known as one of the most difficult construction projects in the south of the country!

In this way, the cost of the project has risen sharply, just a hundred kilometers away, the budget is as high as nearly two billion, which is undoubtedly an astronomical amount at that time, Lishan City is poor jingling, can not be counted on at all, as for Dongjiang Province, although it is an economically developed province, but all the funds allocated by the province are still very tight.

Similarly, the state finances are not abundant, and it is unrealistic to ask too much money from the state treasury to build roads.

The above factors have delayed this project until now, originally Ning Lizhong saw that the time was almost ripe, and wanted to use the joint efforts of Dongjiang Province and the central government to overcome the difficulties, after several efforts, the central government has expressed its support, and the people who should be recruited and installed are also in place, but the opinions of the provincial party committee have not been completely unified.

This time, the main resistance did not come from local bureaucrats such as Ji Mingtang and Wen Haichen, but Governor Bai, who has always been in the center, blocked it, and the reason was very simple and simple: no money!

Maybe there were indeed financial difficulties, or maybe the old man was not satisfied with Ning Lizhong's radicalism, so he appropriately suppressed it, which was conducive to balancing the situation.

In this regard, Ning Lizhong has nothing to do for the time being, although Governor Bai usually does not like to manage things, but he has deep qualifications and high prestige, if he is determined to help anyone, the situation of the other party will be difficult immediately, and the envoy must not set up a big opponent when the relationship with the local faction is tense.

Chen Mingyuan walked into the inner office with the freshly baked newspaper, and gently placed it in the corner of the desk, there is no important news for the time being, so there is no need to remind him in particular, and when Ning Lizhong is free, he will naturally read these newspapers.

Putting down the newspaper, Chen Mingyuan didn't rush out of the room, just stood at the desk.

Ning Lizhong looked up at him and asked, "Something?" ”

Chen Mingyuan nodded and said: "That's right, yesterday Ye Qingxue, the president of Huayu Group, contacted me and inquired with me about the highway project in Lishan City. ”

"She still thinks about the villagers and elders in Lishan?"

Ning Lizhong smiled a little, obviously the trip to Lishan, Ye Qingxue left a very good impression on him.

"Maybe." Chen Mingyuan went straight to the point: "I listened to her and seemed to want to contribute to the construction of the expressway. ”

Ning Lizhong was slightly surprised, and immediately smiled: "It's rare that she has this thought, but ...... Does her company have enough strength? The funding gap of one billion is not a small amount. ”

Although it has made rapid progress in Lingnan Province in recent years, it can only be regarded as a cutting-edge enterprise, and most of the business is import and export trade and cultural industry, with limited financial resources, compared with the funds needed to build expressways, it is really a drop in the bucket and useless.

Chen Mingyuan explained: "Her company alone is definitely far from enough, but she has pulled a consortium and is sure to let the other party inject capital and participate in the shares." ”

Ning Lizhong was a little surprised: "Which consortium, is it reliable?" ”

"It's a Yanjing private equity fund, you may have heard of it." Chen Mingyuan hesitated and said: "It's called Shengshi Capital, and the main body is an investment institution that conducts domestic and foreign equity investment. ”

"Shengshi Capital?!"

Ning Lizhong shrugged and moved, frowned and groaned for a while, staring at Chen Mingyuan with blazing eyes, and said, "So, you also know something about the background of this consortium?" ”

Chen Mingyuan replied truthfully: "I just learned about Lu Dao not long ago, and the company of an elder in my family has just recently accepted their capital injection. ”

Ning Lizhong didn't get to the bottom of it, and seemed to be a little surprised by the intervention of Shengshi Capital, and said in a low voice: "It seems that the relationship between Huayu Group and Shengshi Capital is not simple...... But it's no wonder that Huayu can gain a firm foothold in Lingnan Province in just a few years, and he can't get up without a backer, but he didn't expect that those people have already set their sights on this area. ”

Hearing the meaning of this, Chen Mingyuan was sure that Ning Lizhong knew everything about Shengshi Capital and the Mu family.

In fact, he knew that Ye Qingxue and Shang Wenbin were all members of the Mu family, and arranged them in Dongjiang Province, which not only gave them the opportunity to develop, but also allowed the Mu family's power to penetrate here.

The turmoil a while ago made Shang Wenbin's weight in the Standing Committee team suddenly increase a lot, and now Ye Qingxue wants to assist in the construction of the expressway, probably because she wants to take the opportunity to seek some benefits in the commercial field.

Ning Lizhong naturally thought about this, and said with a chuckle: "Shengshi capital is in great power, and many places usually look forward to them coming to invest and start a business, if you can really pull them in, it will basically be a matter of course." ”

Chen Mingyuan nodded in agreement.

With the support of the major Chinese powerful consortia at home and abroad, and the golden signboard of the Mu family, the energy of Shengshi Capital is undoubted, and most of the central and local governments will support it, so that the construction of the expressway is basically a certainty.

Suddenly, Ning Lizhong's words changed sharply, and he said with a sly smile: "But businessmen can't afford to be early, and Shengshi Capital is willing to support the highway project, presumably because he also wants to get some returns, right?" ”

Chen Mingyuan said slowly: "Ye Qingxue and I only had a general exchange, without talking in detail, but it is expected to be the case, according to the financing experience of other places to build expressways, they probably wait until the expressway is completed and put into use, and levy a fee for a certain number of years......"

"Don't sell it to me, if you have something to say, you can finish it at once."

Ning Lizhong shook his head angrily, this kid, his official tone is getting more and more sufficient, and he knows that he has left three points of leeway to speak: "Such a large investment, relying on fees, will have to receive the Year of the Monkey, regardless of whether they are patient or not, our government will never agree to let them accept it indefinitely." ”

Chen Mingyuan just wanted to give him a chance to play, after all, the secretary should always save some face for the leader, since he was broken, he said to Pantuo: "Secretary Ning, our family is mainly in business, although I don't have much relevant experience, but I often listen to the words and deeds of the elders, and I also understand the profit-seeking nature of capital, these businessmen are willing to do this kind of almost thankless work, the purpose is basically to get the benefits of other fields, or hope that the government will give them other policy preferences and inclination, do you think it's right?" ”

Ning Lizhong nodded in agreement, in fact, with the deepening of reform and opening up, many private capital has gradually participated in government projects, and nowadays, it has become commonplace.

For example, in a certain province with large resources in the north, the priority of mining minerals is often exchanged for the investment of private capital.

In other words, the so-called exchange of equivalent benefits is completed!

Thinking of this, Ning Lizhong said with a little vigilance: "They shouldn't want those resources in Lishan City, right?" ”

Chen Mingyuan said that he was disgusted by these practices of selling resources for short-term benefits, and said: "It's hard to say, but as long as we bite the bottom line and give them compensation in other aspects, such as giving them the right to use a few pieces of land, or giving them policy preferences, it should still be very feasible." ”

"Moreover, as far as I know, there are no examples of Shengshi Capital's investments asking for resource extraction rights from local governments, but there is more interest in the industrial and technology sectors."

Ning Lizhong bowed his head slightly and expressed his agreement.

"But these are just my personal speculations after all, how to deal with it, it still has to be discussed in detail between the two sides, Ye Qingxue also asked me to explore your tone, if you accept this intention, I will ask them to arrange someone to come over to negotiate immediately." Chen Mingyuan seemed confident, "In terms of business, I believe that as long as the conditions we offer are favorable enough, there will definitely be investors who are interested." ”

Ning Lizhong's eyes flickered, obviously moved by these words, looking up at the little secretary again, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, it can be said that the ability performance of this child of the family has far exceeded his original expectations, as if no matter how difficult the problem, he can find a solution.

Nodding, Ning Lizhong said in a deep voice: "Theoretically, your proposal is worth trying, it really has to be done, in one fell swoop, the road is repaired, and the province can also introduce a big project, of course, the most important thing is to take the opportunity to clear the dull atmosphere in our province, now we have some thousands of ideas are still too conservative, obviously there are many flexible ways, but they are unwilling to change their inherent thinking, always so step-by-step, the economy wants to go up, it is too difficult." ”

Chen Mingyuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Yes, we often spend too much energy internally, and no one cares about serious work, so it's delayed." ”

"The reality is that it always comes step by step, and this time, I hope Shengshi Capital will not let us down."

Ning Lizhong smiled, suddenly remembered something, and said in a low voice: "By the way, the person in charge of Shengshi Capital, have you heard of it?" ”

Chen Mingyuan pondered and said: "I heard that it is the sister of the governor of Lingnan Province, Mu Dingyin, and it seems that she is a strange woman with a great background......"

Ning Lizhong sighed: "Almost, that woman, it's not simple!" ”
