Chapter 908: A Journey to Cloud Mountain
Seeing Xu Shengjiao's rather surprised reaction, Bao Feiyang was not surprised, he straightened out his thoughts, considered the words slightly, and continued to say to Xu Shengjiao: "Of course, how to cooperate between Xucheng City and Haizhou City, of course, has to be discussed. In my personal opinion, I think it should be an organic alliance between Xucheng and Haizhou, that is, Xucheng Fine Chemical Park and Haizhou Lingang Petrochemical Park as a joint project. In this project, Huaxia Petroleum Corporation, which owns Xucheng Petrochemical Group, participated; There are also Malaysian Summit Group or other external investors, who have overseas channels and funds; It also includes the local government of Xucheng City and the local government of Haizhou City. We can introduce overseas investment in the fine chemical industry through the line of Guò Malaysia Dingfeng Group, and strive to create a new Lingang petrochemical base for Jiangbei Province. ”
The plan that Bao Feiyang just put forward in the conversation involves two prefecture-level cities, as well as the behemoth of Huaxia Petroleum Corporation, and uses a small Lingang Economic Development Zone in Haizhou to promote it. Not to mention Xucheng City, let alone the provincial government, just in Haizhou City, it is not Bao Feiyang, the director of the Management Committee of the Lingang Economic Development Zone, who can call the shots.
It is precisely because of this that Bao Feiyang hopes that the province can come forward to promote this matter, and the advantage of the province is obvious, that is, it can open up a new pattern of Haizhou Bay development, once Huaxia Petroleum Corporation decides to launch a heavy chemical project in Haizhou, the impact on Haizhou will be huge, and it is enough to promote the upgrading of Haizhou Port.
As the vice governor of Jiangbei Province with considerable economic vision, Xu Shengjiao obviously understands the important meaning behind this matter, but after all, because there are many aspects involved in the operation, it is a matter of importance. Not to mention Bao Feiyang, the director of the Management Committee of the Lingang Economic Development Zone, even Xu Sheng taught him, a member of the Standing Committee of the Jiangbei Provincial Party Committee and executive vice governor, that he could not do anything on this issue. Therefore, Xu Shengjiao didn't dare to express his stance on Bao Feiyang at the scene, so he could only say carefully: "Comrade Feiyang, the matter you mentioned is of great significance, after you go back." I will report to Secretary Wang and Governor Hong. However, until then, I think it's better not to make a big deal about it. ”
After saying this, Xu Shengjiao swept his gaze from Qin Shi and Bao Feiyang's faces.
Needless to say, Qin Shi nodded hurriedly. Of course, Bao Feiyang understood that Xu Shengjiao meant that he should not disclose the news now, so as not to be passive in his work, and immediately expressed his attitude to Xu Shengjiao: "Governor Xu, please rest assured, I will definitely control my mouth." ”
Xu Shengjiao nodded with satisfaction. Only then did he continue: "However, with Malaysia Dingfeng Group, Feiyang can contact you first, if you can sign an agreement of intent, I think it will be better to communicate with Huaxia Petroleum Corporation and Xucheng City." ”。 Compared with those assumptions that do not have a clear outcome, and are still in the air, this is the most practical thing.
Xu Shengjiao is in great need of a beautiful result now, and the reason why Wang Hongfeng was able to get the appreciation of a certain bigwig in the central government at the beginning. Standing out from many competitors, he was able to temporarily replace Hu Yaolin, who retired from illness and former secretary of the Jiangbei Provincial Party Committee, to preside over the work of the provincial party committee when the surrounding situation was not very favorable to him. It is said that it is precisely because of this kind of bold innovation and enterprising spirit that the central bigwigs finally decisively decided on this long-debated position.
After Wang Hongfeng was officially promoted to secretary of the Jiangbei Provincial Party Committee, Xu Shengjiao, who remained in the position of governor of Jiangbei Province, also had the opportunity to serve as the vice governor of Jiangbei Province for a short time. He has sufficient qualifications and connections in all aspects, but although he has tried in various ways, the result is ultimately falling short, and if you want to trace the root cause of his competitive failure, it is still his lack of real weight. What can be done and can make people's eyes shine, which is the so-called political achievements.
As a vice governor with political ideals and ambitions, although he has experienced the failure of the last competition, Xu Shengjiao is still eager to have the opportunity to go further, Bao Feiyang is very clear that the value of Xu Shengjiao after the successful operation of the linkage between Xucheng City and Haizhou City, this value is even far beyond this trip to Southeast Asia to attract investment, although the Southeast Asian group investment has signed more than a billion investment intentions, these are only the results of a certain stage of work. The linkage between Xucheng and Haizhou is strategic, which is related to the future economic development of the entire Jiangbei Province.
So Bao Feiyang is not worried because Xu Shengjiao did not immediately express his support, he knows that for his own political future, Xu Shengjiao will definitely try his best to promote this matter, and Xu Shengjiao served as the mayor and secretary of the municipal party committee in Xucheng before serving as the vice governor of Jiangbei Province, he has been operating in Xucheng for many years, and the influence on Xucheng is undoubted.
However, the premise of this qiē is based on the petrochemical base of Haizhou Lingang Economic Development Zone has a strong external force to promote, and the actual situation is the key person, Chen Yongzhi, the head of Malaysia Dingfeng Group, has not made a clear statement on this matter, except for Bao Feiyang and he had a preliminary exchange, they did not even talk about this aspect of the matter, and that exchange only involved the analysis of the overall trend of the future economy in Southeast Asia, and is still under consideration. However, at present, there is no definite strategic plan for the group, and this plan only has a rough outline, which is actually a vague and not very clear preliminary idea in terms of Chen Yongzhi.
***********************
The next day, the large army of the Jiangbei Provincial Investment Delegation set off for the next stop of the investment promotion itinerary - Singapore, while Bao Feiyang stayed. Although Bao Feiyang did not wait for Chen Yongzhi's news, Chen Yajun invited him to take him to visit Yunshan in Malaysia.
Bao Feiyang thought of Huang Shujie's evaluation of Chen Yajun, and knew the weight and influence of Chen Yajun, who was quite talented in business, in the mind of his father Chen Yongzhi, and thought that Chen Yajun probably wouldn't just show his enthusiasm for friendship as a landlord, and specially came to invite him, a guest who came from afar, to enjoy the mountains and rivers. I should also want to take this opportunity to have more contact and deeper understanding with Bao Feiyang, so as to draw some judgments. After all, Chen Yongzhi's identity in Dingfeng Group is relatively special, and it is not good to come forward to have more contact with Bao Feiyang in person until the critical time, so Bao Feiyang readily agreed.
For Bao Feiyang, he naturally wanted to take the opportunity to visit Yunshan this time. can pass on some information to Chen Yongzhi through Chen Yajun. Bao Feiyang hopes that the information he conveyed can further influence Chen Yongzhi, so that Chen Yongzhi can make the right choice on the future development strategic direction of Dingfeng Group.
Mount Un is the most famous mountain in Malaysia, there are many tourists here every day, and although it is only a scenic area built on a mountain, it is very lively, and its journey is not even inferior to the bustling business district in the local city center, because it is home to the second largest international casino in Asia, Genting Casino, and of course there are not only casinos on Genting. As a tourist resort for leisure and entertainment, it also has artificial lakes, playgrounds, golf courses and other facilities, and its reputation is far and wide, whether it is passing through here for work or business, or specially coming for a vacation, almost everyone who comes to Malaysia will visit this famous Genting for a while.
Although the name Genting sounds like it is towering above the clouds and at a particularly high altitude, it is actually not the highest mountain in the entire Unshan Mountain Range. However, due to the climate, it often rains here. Densely vegetated and humid, the summit of this mountain, which is only more than 2,700 meters above sea level, is basically covered in clouds and mist except for a few days a year, looking like a dream wonderland.
"There were a lot of people on the clouds, and the smell of copper was too strong. I'm going to take you to another place today, so that you can enjoy the real and authentic scenery of Yunshan. Chen Yajun drove a domineering Land Rover off-road vehicle, and said to Bao Feiyang with a smile, don't look at her usual reserved and steady, quite Sven. looks delicate, but at this time, the car is speeding all the way on the highway, which startles the unprepared Bao Feiyang, this time it can be regarded as seeing the other side of the character of this gentle-looking shopping mall woman.
"Yajun, isn't there a speed limit on this road?" Looking at the roadside scenery that flickered past both sides of the car window and flew back rapidly, Bao Feiyang couldn't help but ask with some surprise. According to international practice, for the sake of traffic safety, highways are subject to speed limits, so the traffic laws in Malaysia are different.
Chen Yajun pursed her lips disdainfully: "No one walks this road, so the police won't care." ”
As he spoke, Chen Yajun suddenly slammed the steering wheel, and the tires of the off-road vehicle made a harsh grinding sound, and he quickly rushed up a potholed mountain road in front of the slope, and the speed was unexpectedly unabated.
"This road is even more unattended, and it can be opened hard." Chen Yajun glanced at Bao Feiyang, and a string of silver bell-like laughter came out of his mouth.
Bao Feiyang didn't expect that Chen Yajun, who seemed to be quiet and quiet, would have such a wild side, and the contrast between before and after was too huge, right?
Under Chen Yajun's wild driving, the dusty off-road vehicle jumped on the potholed mountain road, and the four wheels took off for a while, giving people a strong sense of weightlessness, and then slammed on the ground, making people's internal organs pop out.
Bao Feiyang was just about to speak, only to see Chen Yajun quickly turn the steering wheel, and the off-road vehicle turned a corner along the winding mountain road, and the oncoming cliffs came to him, and next to them were craggy cliffs.
Even with the self-cultivation of Bao Feiyang Taishan collapsing in front of him without changing his color, his face couldn't help but be stern at this time, and he turned his head to Chen Yajun and shouted: "I said Yajun, is it a little slower?" ”
It's not that Bao Feiyang is afraid, but Bao Feiyang believes in Confucius's saying, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. You must know that he Bao Feiyang is now the future son-in-law of Zhao Genzheng, the vice minister of the Government Council, and his identity is equivalent to the third-generation descendant of the Zhao family, and his own safety is related to the layout of the Zhao family's future political forces. Even if the factors of the Zhao family are not considered, Bao Feiyang is also the youngest department-level cadre in Jiangbei Province, and his uncle Bao Guoqiang is the secretary of the municipal party committee of the provincial capital of Northwest Province.
Just don't think about Bao Feiyang. Chen Yajun is also the third-generation grandson of the Chen family in Malaysia, and is one of the family successors that the Chen family has done its best to cultivate! With such a noble status, how can you do such a dangerous thing as mountain road racing?
"Hee-hee!" A look of smugness flashed on Chen Yajun's delicate little face, and she snickered as if she had succeeded in a prank, and she quickly glanced at Bao Feiyang, who was trembling in the passenger seat, and saw that his face was a little terrifying. So with a bit of banter and mockery, he said to him: "What, Director Bao Feiyang, you are afraid of the game that even me, a little woman, is afraid of?" ”
Although Chen Yajun said this, the speed of the off-road vehicle still slowed down, and seeing that the mountain road in front of him was getting steeper and steeper, Chen Yajun just wanted to find excitement, and use this rapid experience to relax the nerves that were usually tense due to too much work pressure, instead of looking for death. Of course. Chen Yajun also knew that Bao Feiyang was not really scared. With Bao Feiyang's open-mindedness, if he was frightened by such a small pediatric game, it would really surprise Chen Yajun.
Chen Yajun slowed down the speed of the car, drove the off-road vehicle to circle along the winding mountain road, gradually penetrated into the mountains, and finally slowly slowed down and stopped in a relatively flat clearing.
Glancing at Bao Feiyang. Chen Yajun's white and tender little hand pointed out of the car window, and said with a smile: "Director Feiyang." It's time for us to get out of the car, and we're going to walk the road down on our own. ”
Bao Feiyang jumped out of the car, took a deep breath of the fresh high altitude in the mountains, stretched out his arms and twisted his waist for a long time, and then turned his head to look at the surrounding situation, this should be almost to the top of the mountain. The mountain is indeed very high, there is not much vegetation on the mountain, and the next mountain wall is exposed with large chunks of mountain rock, and from this platform, you can see the winding mountains around you. The clouds and mist are very spectacular.
"How about it, look stunned, when I was young, my dad often took me to this mountain, he said that only here, can I really see the mountains, can I stay away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and think about something quietly, unlike Genting, which has long become a gold cave."
Chen Yajun is wearing a light yellow T-shirt today, the hem of the placket is tucked into the waistband of aqua blue jeans, although her figure is not tall, her legs are very good, her legs are straight, and she is wearing a pair of Nike hiking shoes on her feet, and she is very athletic and casual. The natural jet-black hair is tucked behind the head, tied into a ponytail, and kept flicking and shaking, looking youthful and beautiful, and sassy and compelling. Even Bao Feiyang was used to seeing super-first-class beauties, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Chen Yajun at this time.
Capturing Bao Feiyang's expression, Chen Yajun couldn't help but smile, pulled Bao Feiyang's sleeve with her white and tender little hand, and urged: "Let's go, this is not the highest place, and the scenery above is even better!" ”
A faint body fragrance sinks into the nose of Bao Feiyang, with the unique sweetness of a girl, which smells very good. Bao Feiyang's heart fluttered, and then he came to his senses, nodded generously, and followed Chen Yajun to climb up.
Chen Yajun looked back at Bao Feiyang as he walked: "Feiyang, can you do this mountain climbing, you look pretty good, unlike many officials in your mainland, who look like they have a big belly." ”
"I have no problem at all." Bao Feiyang smiled, he insisted on exercising every day, and such a mountain road was not a problem for him at all: "You said that Mr. Chen often brought you here before, so this time, didn't he come here to think about the information I provided yesterday?" ”
"Haha!" Chen Yajun looks very elegant and quiet in public, but in private, she looks very lively, like a girl next door. She smiled and said: "He, he has rarely come here over the years, I think he even comes, at most he will go to the place just now, and he will not be able to climb up if he goes up." ”
"The place he frequents most now is Genting." Chen Yajun pursed her lips.
Bao Feiyang nodded, this may be the price to be paid for maturity, when he was young, Chen Yongzhi could disdain the gold cave in Yunding, but when he wanted to take care of the peak industry, he had to often appear on that kind of social occasion.
"Mr. Chen, that's for socializing." Bao Feiyang heard the dissatisfaction in Chen Yajun's words, and he himself understood Chen Yongzhi's approach very well: "But I think Mr. Chen should also take the time to come here to take a look, stand tall, maybe he can see many problems more clearly." ”
Chen Yajun glanced at Bao Feiyang: "Do you want to talk about your theory of economic crisis in Southeast Asia again?" In fact, I agree with you that when the financial market is becoming more and more developed, the faster the economic development of any economy, the greater the possibility of financial and economic crises in theory. For example, in China, the inflation rate was as high as 20 percent in the first two years, prices rose several times, and many companies fell into losses and stopped production. ”
"In addition, in the past two years, the economic community has been worried that your economy will fall into a downturn after this round of abnormal surge, although you say that you have implemented a soft landing, but this round of economic trends is not clear, and many of your systemic problems have not been resolved, maybe it will continue to fall and become a hard landing." Chen Yajun said.
"It seems that you have studied the economy of China quite a bit!" Bao Feiyang looked at Chen Yajun with some surprise, he had never heard her talk about this before.
"Of course, so if the situation you said becomes a reality, you Huaxia will also be affected, right?" Chen Yajun winked at Bao Feiyang slyly.
Bao Feiyang shrugged his shoulders, I have to say that Chen Yajun's analysis is very reasonable, in the financial crisis that swept through Asia that year, China was indeed affected, and the economic growth rate fell all the way, from 10 percent in '96 to 9.3 percent in '97.
In the eyes of ordinary people, a low inflation rate is a good thing, which means that commodity prices will not rise and currencies will not depreciate, but in fact, there are two problems here, one is that the inflation rate and the economic growth rate tend to change in the same direction, usually the faster the economic growth, the higher the inflation rate, and vice versa. The rapid decline in the inflation rate this year also reflected this trend, and sure enough, by '98 or '99, the economic growth rate fell below 8 percent.
Second, the rate of inflation is declining at an astonishing rate, the curve is too large, and it reflects the demand for social consumption in a certain way, and when the effective demand is insufficient and the social inventory is overstocked, prices will naturally not rise. In '98 or '992, the domestic inflation rate fell below zero and became negative, which actually meant that the Chinese economy had entered a new round of deflation.
This round of deflation lasted for a long time, and it was not until 03 that the inflation rate jumped above 1 percent, and then a new round of inflation began in 07.
Bao Feiyang said: "Of course, if there is really a large-scale financial crisis, Huaxia will also be affected. However, China's financial market is not as open as that of Southeast Asian countries, and there is basically no possibility of international travel capital entering and exiting at will, and our foreign exchange reserves are as high as 100 billion, which increased by 3 million last year. ”
"Therefore, as long as we want to, we can ensure the stability of the currency exchange rate, which means that your investment will not shrink." Bao Feiyang said.
"Then you can guarantee that when the neighboring countries in Asia compete to depreciate their currencies, you Huaxia will guarantee that it will not depreciate? The pros and cons of devaluation and non-depreciation, I think you are well aware. Chen Yajun stopped, put her hands on her waist, and gasped for breath quickly.
Bao Feiyang also stopped, but looking at his calm and relaxed appearance, it seemed to be very relaxed: "Of course, as long as our financial market remains stable, the exchange rate will not automatically fall, unless it is actively lowered, but this kind of thing that harms others and benefits itself has not been done by the Chinese government."
