Chapter 373: Meeting Shen Quan (continued)
After reporting to the most luke, Chen Guan said earnestly: "Secretary Shen, there are four points where it is feasible to rebuild the Dayun Temple and build the statue of the Great Buddha: First, Wu Zetian itself has the appeal of tourism, she is the first and only female emperor in Chinese history, and she has many anecdotes, leaving many mysteries. Wu Zhou inherited the rule of Zhenguan in the history of the Tang Dynasty, and opened the Yuan Dynasty and Tianbao Shengshi, which has an indelible stroke. The name of Wu Zetian to attract tourists has a certain influence. Second, the development of Buddhist culture to this day, there are many believers in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, Macao, Japan and all parts of the world, as long as we build the world's largest Buddha statue, it will inevitably attract many Buddhists to come to worship and worship. These Buddhists are the main force that supports the tourist process. They want to come to Shuiquan to pay homage to the Giant Buddha, bringing foreign exchange, and it is even possible to promote foreign investment in our city, and the pattern of Shuiquan's opening to the outside world will change as a result. Third, it is now a good period for reform and opening up to gradually deepen, and the policy is relaxed, and it is possible to get the approval of the higher authorities by rebuilding the Dayun Temple and building the statue of the Buddha. Fourth, as far as our Shuiquan City is concerned, there is no large-scale temple, after the completion of Dayun Temple, it can not only provide a tourist attraction for the masses, but also provide a place for Buddhist believers to worship Buddha, meet their religious beliefs and psychological needs, and help promote social stability in our city. In other words, the statue of the Big Buddha is the shining point, focus and selling point of the city's tourism industry in the future, and can drive the economic development of the city.
After listening to this, Shen Quan stood up from behind his desk, walked to the map of the water spring hanging on the wall and looked at it for a long time, then turned around and said to Li Lide in an inquiring tone: "The best tourism income now is still Shaolin Temple, Wutai Mountain, Emei Mountain, Putuo Island, these places, right?" ”
Li Lide replied that there are basically three pieces, one is the famous religious and cultural mountains mentioned by Secretary Shen, the other is the historical and cultural attractions represented by the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, and the other is the landscape represented by the Yellow Mountain, Lushan Mountain and the Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong that have emerged in recent years. With a large number of tourists and stable income, it is still a famous religious and cultural mountain. Historical and cultural places such as the Forbidden City and the Great Wall cannot be replicated, there is no comparison, and there is no possibility of transplantation.
After hearing this, Shen Quan pondered for a moment and said: "I heard that Putuo Island has this idea, and it is said that they want to build a statue of Guanyin. In addition, there are people in our province who want to do it, and they have been running for several years. This matter is very troublesome, one is that people from religious circles need to come forward to apply, we don't have talents in this area, we need to find a way. The other is that there are many policy taboos and it is difficult to get approval. The third is that the investment is relatively large. The statue of Guanyin in Putuo and the statue of the Buddha in our province are difficult to implement. By the way, Chen Guan, your report says that Wulongyu Tourism Development Co., Ltd. has adopted the method of capital increase and share expansion to solve the problem, is it sure in the end? ”
Chen Guan replied that Secretary Shen could rest assured that there was no problem with the funds, and there was no need for the treasury to contribute a penny.
Shen Quan said that Chen Guan was only talking about the money for rebuilding the Dayun Temple and building a large statue, which was already a lot, tens of millions, but this was only one aspect. If we really build the statue of the Great Buddha, it will really become a tourist attraction that is listed at home and abroad and a place for Buddhist believers to burn incense and worship the Buddha, and the traffic pressure of the water spring will be great. It is really like what Chen Guan said, we have to build a highway from Shuiquan to Mingshui, we have to think of ways to build a railway, and maybe we will have to build an airport in the future. If the money can be invested by the superiors, it will be easy to manage. If you let Shuiquan invest on its own, the city treasury will not be able to come up with this money. If you can't take it now, you may not be able to take it out in another three or five years! It's a contradiction! On the one hand, the construction of the statue of the Buddha may be an opportunity for the adjustment of the economic structure of the water spring, and on the other hand, the city has no money to invest! It's a problem, and it's worth looking into!
Seeing Secretary Shen's thoughtful and difficult look, Chen Guan said: "Secretary Shen, in fact, the first step for the city to consider is to first think about getting approval for the reconstruction of Dayun Temple and the construction of the statue of the Great Buddha. The second step is to solve the traffic problem. Now the country is starting the construction of the expressway, Lianhuo Expressway has begun to build, the future will inevitably run through the provincial capital to our city and then to Xijing, Lanzhou expressway. In fact, we just need to think about trying to build a highway from Sangyuan to Mingshui. Judging from the current situation, building highways is also a major measure to drive the economy, and future policies may move towards a model of who builds roads and collects money. Build a highway, it is likely that the investment will be recouped within a few years, and then it will be a million profits. Building a highway is more profitable than running a large enterprise. If the municipal finance department does not have the financial resources to invest at that time, and it cannot obtain the appropriation from the higher levels, it can consider adopting a shareholding system to attract private funds to invest in road construction, and share it according to the proportion of shares. In this way, it not only improves the city's transportation and investment conditions, but also reduces the pressure of financial investment, and can also establish a stable transportation tax paying enterprise, killing three birds with one stone! ”
Shen Quan asked rhetorically: "Building highways is a major strategic issue related to the national economy and people's livelihood, how can it be possible to tend to who builds roads and who will charge?" ”
Chen Guan said: "Isn't our current national highway just charging? How many toll booths have you had to go to the provincial capital! Aren't there toll booths on national highways in our city? Since the national highway is tolled, the future Lianhuo Expressway will be charged, why can't we build a toll highway connecting Sangyuan to Mingshui? The toll on the national highway is a toll to repay the loan, and it is very likely that it will be banned in the future. However, if it is a road built by a joint-stock company, the right of way belongs to the company, and it is impossible to ban it, and it can be operated forever. Besides, capital is profit-seeking and profitable, so naturally there are people who are willing to invest. Now the state is building expressways, and if everyone sees that expressways are profitable in two years, local governments, foreign capital, and private funds will all think of building expressways, which is the same as investing in enterprises, and there is no difference. ”
This is just entering 1996, Chen Guan has already thought of establishing a joint-stock company to build a highway. This vision is indeed a bit ahead of its time, and even Shen Quan and Li Lide were dumbfounded.
Originally, Chen Guan was given 10 minutes, but now half an hour has passed, Shen Quan's secretary has come in twice, and Shen Quan has not ended the conversation.
Maybe Shen Quan did have something, and when he saw the secretary come in for the third time, Shen Quan finally said: "I still have activities in the morning, I have to go!" In this way, Minister Li, this matter of rebuilding Dayun Temple is not just a cultural tourism project for your propaganda, it involves too many aspects, and it must be studied carefully. You called the comrades from the Tourism Bureau, the Religious Affairs Bureau, and the Transportation Bureau to discuss the issue with Chen Guan and discuss the issue thoroughly. Whether it is possible to obtain the approval of the higher authorities and whether it is possible to build a highway from Shuiquan to Mingshui to Longwan Town must be carefully studied and a preliminary opinion should be made. I will give you a day tomorrow, at 8 o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, Mayor Yu and I will listen to your report in the meeting room of the Standing Committee, and let Zhang Deqing, secretary of the Mingshui County Party Committee, and Wang Menglong, the county magistrate, come together to participate in the report! You are responsible for informing the office and asking them to inform the mayors in charge of finance, transportation, culture, education and health to listen to the report together! ”
Chen Guan originally thought that Secretary Shen and Mayor Yu would just express their attitude, but they didn't expect Secretary Shen to let them study carefully and listen to the report the day after tomorrow! It seems that Secretary Shen was moved by Chen Guan's statement and really paid attention to it!
After Shen Quan finished speaking, he got up and was about to leave.
Li Lide quickly got up from the sofa and led Hu Ming and Chen Guan out of Secretary Shen's office first.
When he passed through the hall on the second floor, he saw that Director Zhang was still reading the newspaper by leaning on the handrail of the stairs, so Hu Ming said, "Director Zhang, can you go to my office and sit for a while?" ”
The director Zhang replied that he would not go, he still had something to do.
Back on the third floor, there were a few people standing at the door of Minister Li Lide, who seemed to have come to report on their work.
Li Lide told Hu Mingxian to notify the Transportation Bureau, the Tourism Bureau, and the Religious Affairs Bureau to each have a deputy director who is familiar with the business and a counterpart business section chief, and to hold a meeting in the ministry's conference room at 10:30 p.m. to study the issue of rebuilding the Dayun Temple.
Minister Li Lide was busy, and Chen Guan had no choice but to follow Hu Ming to his office.
After sitting down in the office, Hu Ming said with a smile: "Little junior brother, okay, I don't have stage fright when I see Secretary Shen, and the report is clear and to the point." It seems that the quality of teaching at Chung Yuan University has not declined over the years! ”
Chen Guan was embarrassed, saying that he was also nervous at the beginning, but then he thought that he had to report the problem clearly, so he was not nervous.
Seeing that Hu Ming was in a very good mood, Chen Guan took the opportunity to ask who Director Zhang was talking to Minister Hu just now, and why he saw him mopping the floor on the second floor as soon as he came to work.
Hu Ming said that Director Zhang is the director of the Second Light Bureau. The enterprises under the management of the Second Light Bureau are almost bankrupt, there are many laid-off workers, and there are many problems left behind, so the city is brewing to withdraw the Second Light Bureau and change it into the Second Light Corporation, so that they can collect and support themselves. Director Zhang came to find Secretary Shen, and he wanted to keep the financial supply of the Second Light Bureau. Secretary Shen annoyed that he was not thinking clearly, and he didn't see him. He came and waited every day to help the municipal party committee office clean up.
I see!
Hu Ming was busy calling the Transportation Bureau, the Tourism Bureau, and the Religious Affairs Bureau to send people to the meeting.
Chen Guan also took advantage of this time to be free, hurriedly called Tan Qi, reported that he could not go back today, Secretary Shen asked Minister Li Lide to convene the leaders of the Transportation Bureau, the Religious Affairs Bureau, and the Tourism Bureau to hold a meeting to study the reconstruction of Dayun Temple in Wulongyu, and at eight o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, Secretary Shen and Mayor Yu will listen to the report, and perhaps Secretary Zhang Deqing and Wang Menglong, the county magistrate, will also come to participate in the report.
Tan Qi told Chen Guan that he had received an official notice from the provincial department, ordering Chen Guan to report to the provincial department before getting off work on the 19th, participate in the training camp for a month, and ask Chen Guan if he would return to Mingshui before leaving, and the adjustment of the team of the Tonghua Town Police Station could not wait, and he wanted to exchange opinions with Chen Guan.
Chen Guan said that today is the 16th, and the day after tomorrow will report to Secretary Shen and Mayor Yu on the 18th. After the report, he rushed back to Mingshui directly, and on the 19th, he felt rushed to the provincial hall to report.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Guan pondered in his heart, what did the provincial department specify for Lu to go to the training camp? Among the public security officers in the province, he is not necessarily the only one who did not graduate from the police academy, why did he want him to go to training? Could it be that there is another mystery in the middle?
