Chapter 716: Lotus Festival

The annual lotus festival is a major event in Jingcheng City, the cultural stage of the Lotus Festival, the economic singing, the industrial and agricultural products of nine counties, one city and two districts of Jingcheng City will be displayed at the exhibition of the Lotus Festival, and Chinese and foreign businessmen will gather to discuss trade and investment.

However, Jingcheng City is a plain area, there are no special mineral resources, the geographical location is located on the eastern edge of the mainland, it is a subsidence zone of the coastal economy, there are no special industrial products, there are some agricultural products, but the transportation requirements of agricultural products are very high, but the transportation of Jingcheng City is not developed, and the location is relatively partial, so compared with the investment conference of some other cities, the lotus festival in Jingcheng City is also tepid, and it is a big event in the city, but it is nothing compared with other places.

Otherwise, it would cost them a lot of money to hold their own investment promotion conferences, and it would be difficult to attract investors from all over the world, and they would not let them participate in the investment promotion conferences held in other places, so how could they allow others to come and grab food?

Therefore, all counties are holding back their energy to talk about a few more projects at the Lotus Festival, and the leaders are basically county magistrates, at least executive deputy county magistrates.

The delegation of Wanghai County was led by Zheng Yue, executive deputy county magistrate, and Bao Feiyang also went together, and the overall specifications were similar to those in previous years, but they were worse than those of other counties, especially Luming, Xixi and other large counties.

The day before the opening of the cultural festival, Zheng Yue and Bao Feiyang rushed to the city, and Liu Ning, director of the county investment promotion bureau who had been in the city in advance and had already led the staff to make various preparations in advance, handed over a copy of the document: "County Magistrate Zheng, County Magistrate Bao, this is the final schedule of the Lotus Festival. Only one seafood processing in our county has entered the key recommendation list of the Municipal Economic and Trade Fair. ”

Zheng Yue and Bao Feiyang glanced at each other, the schedule of the cultural festival, especially the arrangement of the most important economic and trade fair, has already been sent down, and it has been revised many times, they have been prepared for a similar situation, but the final arrangement result still surprised them, the city canceled the port construction, shipping, tidal flat farming, papermaking and other projects submitted by Wanghai County, leaving only a seafood processing that looks like a chicken rib, it seems that Wanghai County is going to be suppressed to the end.

Of course, there is a legitimate reason for the city's arrangement. Because there are only twenty or thirty investment projects that can be recommended at the economic and trade fair. Which is up, which is down, the city can give a lot of standards, and the result of too many standards is that no project can meet all the standards. In the end, the choice becomes a subjective decision for the leader.

Bao Feiyang took the schedule and flipped through it casually: "One is just one." There are no key projects. We can also advertise and negotiate with investors. ”

That being said, Zheng Yue and Liu Ning both know that there is still a big difference in whether they can be recommended or not. On the key project, basically all the merchants who come to participate in the economic and trade fair, and even participate in the lotus festival, will see that if they can't get on, they must go through other ways, which is undoubtedly much more difficult.

Liu Ning said with a wry smile: "The county's booth is the same as last year, it is still in the innermost, and the area is also very small, I am afraid that there will be a lot fewer people going by then." ”

Bao Feiyang smiled and patted Liu Ning's arm: "It doesn't matter, how much is the amount of the project signed at the Lotus Festival last year?" How many successful negotiations were made at the Lotus Festival? What is the actual investment amount? How big is the stage of the Lotus Festival, just do your best. ”

During the cultural festival, the urban hotels are relatively tight, and the city also requires the counties and cities to find other ways to give up the middle and high-end hotels to the merchants who come from afar. Wanghai County contacted the Municipal Construction Engineering School and chartered more than a dozen rooms in the school guest house, which were in poor condition, but they were quite tidy.

Zheng Yue and Bao Feiyang also had no intention of using this last bit of time to walk around the city, they went directly to the exhibition site to see the layout of the booth and arrange tomorrow's display work.

"Hey, isn't this County Magistrate Zheng, your Wanghai County is going to be in the limelight this year, the investment in the Fangxia Paper project is 100 million, right? This one project alone will exceed the total amount of the previous two years, and this time it will definitely not be at the bottom. Zhou Dachun, the executive deputy county magistrate of Wanghe County, walked over surrounded by several cadres, and when he saw Zheng Yue, he immediately smiled and said loudly.

Wanghe County is located in the south of Bincheng County, east of Yanghu County, north of Fenghai County, traditionally considered Wanghe County, Yanghu County and Fenghai County as the central area of Jingcheng City, and then to the south is Yanhai District and Tinghai District, then Luming County, Xixi City, Xixi and Tongcheng City are adjacent to each other, and it is also the most economically developed county-level city in Jingcheng County.

Zheng Yue's face sank, and people who didn't know the inside story thought he was praising Zhou Dachun's words when they heard it, but Zheng Yue knew that Zhou Dachun was not so kind. When they were studying at the Party School of the Municipal Party Committee, the two competed for squad leader, but Zheng Yue won and became a strong man ever since. Zhou Dachun is a person who will be repaid, Zheng Yue doesn't believe that he will say good things about Wanghai County.

Zheng Yue said lightly: "We all know the situation of Wanghai, the results of the annual lotus festival are to accompany the last seat, although there is a Fangxia paper project this year, but that has long been determined, this lotus festival to be able to sign one or two more small projects, it is satisfied, compared to Wanghe County's wealth." ”

Zhou Dachun's small eyes rolled: "Hehe, County Magistrate Zheng's words should be put on hold before, I believe it, but now I don't believe it, your new county magistrate Bao is an expert in attracting investment!" This should be the county magistrate Bao, right? ”

Bao Feiyang stretched out his palm and looked at Zhou Dachun calmly: "I'm Bao Feiyang, hello County Magistrate Zhou." ”

"Sure enough, County Magistrate Bao is really young and promising, if it weren't for County Magistrate Bao, your temperament is outstanding, just looking at your age, you would think that you are County Magistrate Zheng's secretary. Wanghai County has you, it is their blessing! Zhou Dachun said with a smile, at first he did think that Bao Feiyang was Zheng Yue's secretary, but looking at the positions of the two people and Bao Feiyang's demeanor, it didn't look like a superior, and Bao Feiyang was already the deputy county magistrate of Wanghai County before he was twenty-five years old, and the matter was also widely discussed in the city, so he guessed his identity.

Bao Feiyang smiled: "County Magistrate Zhou said that it was my luck to be able to work in Wanghai County and have a leader like County Magistrate Zheng." ”

"Hehe, County Magistrate Bao, you are really modest, now who doesn't know that as soon as you County Magistrate Bao came, they Wanghai County immediately turned into a phoenix, and suddenly introduced a rare 100 million yuan project in the city, who doesn't say that they are lucky in Wanghai County, if the county magistrate Bao is willing to come to Wanghe, the position of the executive deputy county magistrate in the county belongs to you." Zhou Dachun said and glanced at Zheng Yue with a smile.

Bao Feiyang also saw that the relationship between Zhou Dachun and Zheng Yue did not seem to be so harmonious, Zhou Dachun was equivalent to digging a pit for himself, if he didn't answer well, Zheng Yue's strength would be a little smaller, and it would inevitably be unfortunate in his heart.

He smiled and shook his head: "That's not good, everyone knows that I am young, and there are still a lot of shortcomings, it is okay to engage in projects and attract investment, but I am afraid that I am still not able to do the overall work, if it is not for the county magistrate Zheng to handle those daily things properly, I am afraid that I will not even be able to do a project." ”

Zhou Dachun smiled, he came over to mock and ridicule his opponent Zheng Yue a few words, and secondly, he wanted to have a good relationship with Bao Feiyang, the youngest deputy county magistrate in the city and maybe even in the province, now Bao Feiyang obviously defends Zheng Yue, of course he will not do anything that offends Bao Feiyang.

Zhou Dachun looked at the booth of Wanghai County, picked up the promotional materials on the table and looked at them, and said in surprise: "Hey, your county has prepared a lot of projects this year, this is port construction?" Are you really planning to expand the port of Chengang? ”

Zheng Yue nodded, and said lightly: "Of course, our Chen Port is not an ordinary small fishing port, it is a good port with a deep-water channel and a deep-water wharf of 100,000 tons. ”

The economic situation of Wanghe County is better than that of Wanghai County, of course, the situation is similar in some aspects, for example, Wanghe County also has a port, but like Chen Port, the tonnage is small and the throughput is insufficient. Moreover, the channel conditions of Wanghe Port are not as good as those of Chen Port.

Zhou Dachun laughed dryly: "The conditions of Chen Port are good, but you are too close to Haizhou Port, and land transportation is not good, I estimate that the province and the city will not support you to build this port." ”

Zheng Yue's face sank, and it really made Zhou Dachun say, their biggest problem now is the lack of support from above.

Zhou Dachun flipped to the end and saw a special paper industrial park investment project manual, and couldn't help squinting his eyes slightly: "Paper industrial park? Did the city agree with you to build a paper industrial park? That's a great thing! Didn't you say that you should do it in the Salt Sea or Luming? ”

Zheng Yue's face became even more ugly, this Zhou Dachun is simply a pot that can't be opened, for this matter, the city can't wait to change the entire team in Wanghai County, how can it be agreed that they will engage in a paper industrial park.

Bao Feiyang said: "This paper industrial park is actually Fangxia Paper Industry Base, but for the convenience of publicity, we changed the name to this one." ”

If Wanghai County wants to build a paper industrial park now, the city will definitely not agree, so the city's statement is the industrial base of Fangxia Paper, which is agreed by the city, and the city is not easy to say. However, when it comes to publicity, the name of the industrial park is still used. This method is actually very common, in recent years, many industrial parks and development zones have been carried out in various places, and many of them have not been approved, but it does not affect their savings.

Zhou Dachun naturally understood the key, he laughed twice and said: "So that's the case, but I think the planning of your industrial base is bigger than the industrial park in Luming County, I don't know what will happen to Bu Guang in Luming County if he knows it!" (To be continued......)
