As soon as the news of the old man's southern tour was officially confirmed, the world was shocked.

His portrait reappeared on the cover of Time magazine, and the article read: "It is unbelievable that a populous nation can make a 180-degree turn in such a short period of time that an aircraft carrier spins on a coin." ”

In fact, it's unbelievable.

In the past three years, there have been many controversies and doubts about the reform, and the old man, with his unique wisdom and vision, has made many deafening speeches during his southern tour, bravely escorting the great cause of reform and opening up.

A series of speeches during his southern tour were like a thunderclap that made people clearly feel the atmosphere of spring.

As soon as the two sessions were successfully concluded, the premier announced the end of the three-year rectification of governance. Immediately afterwards, the local officials in the place where they passed, because the "talisman" on their heads was gone, they were all eager to try to be the Monkey King of reform. Even conservative-minded officials are ready to tear up their tears and bankrupt state-owned enterprises that are suffering from serious losses.

The "Three Gorges Project", which was discussed and approved by the National People's Congress, became the focus of people's attention for a while: supporters cited Chairman M's "High Gorge Out of Pinghu" to evoke people's memory; Ordinary people are worried about whether it is safe for hundreds of millions of people downstream to hang such a big "basin of water" on their heads?

The surname "capital" and the surname "society" no one openly argues anymore, and it is rumored that the old man once spoke in the circle to let people who love to engage in this kind of argument "go home and sleep"! But for whether the men's football team should hire foreign coaches, tens of millions of people are fighting for it. Those high-profile theorists also got involved and joined in the fun: "How can you let foreigners have the final say in the 'national brand'?" ”

However, the Chinese men's football team should hire foreign coaches, but thousands of people are fighting for it. Even those high-minded theorists joined in the fun. shouted: "How can you let the 'national brand' let foreigners have the final say?" ”

Unswervingly reform and opening up has become the main theme. "Development is the last word" makes everyone feel hopeful. "Be bolder and move faster" has become a clarion call to lead a generation of reformers.

Everyone is learning the spirit of the old man's speech on his southern tour, and Hujiang, China's largest city, which has created countless glories, is no exception.

In the conference room of the Standing Committee, Secretary Wu of the Hujiang Municipal Party Committee did not even need to read the speech, but looked around at the crowd and said loudly: "The spirit of Comrade XP's speech is deafening and thought-provoking. During his two inspections to Hujiang last year and this year, he stressed more than once the need to seize the opportunity to develop the economy. This is a demand for us, and it is also a criticism......"

When the old man spent the Spring Festival in Hujiang, he pointed out that "Hujiang is fully qualified to do it faster, and it has obvious advantages in talent, technology, and management, and has a wide radiation area." He even said without self-reproach: "Looking back, one of my big mistakes was that I didn't add the Hujiang River when I set up the four special economic zones." Otherwise, now the Yangtze River Delta, the entire Yangtze River Basin. Even the situation of reform and opening up across the country will be different. ”

Compared to the Xiangjiang Special Economic Zone. No one can deny that Hujiang is lagging behind.

Before the meeting, Mayor Huang was very clear about the next topic, but he had to set a tone for discussing such a big thing, so he listened attentively as if he didn't know anything, and took notes from time to time.

"Comrade XP clearly pointed out during his southern tour: 'Judging from the situation in the Xiangjiang Special Economic Zone, public ownership is the mainstay, and foreign investment accounts for only a quarter, that is, the foreign investment part, and we can also benefit from taxation and labor services! Don't be afraid to engage in more 'three-funded' enterprises. As long as we are clear-headed, we are not afraid.

…… At this stage of China's 'three foreign-funded' enterprises, according to the current laws and policies, foreign businessmen always have to make some money. However, the state still has to get back the tax revenues, the workers still have to get back their wages, and we can also learn technology and management, and we can also get information and open up the market. ”

Speaking of this, Secretary Wu changed his words: "'Three-foreign' enterprises, joint ventures, is nothing new for us, with Germany joint venture Hujiang Volkswagen, with the United States joint venture production of McDonnell Douglas passenger aircraft, have produced huge economic benefits, but also learned advanced technology and management experience.

Once you have tasted the sweetness, you should be 'bolder and faster' as Comrade XP instructed! The comrades of CCTV's "News Network" last night all watched it, right? In the first half of this year, the export volume of Dongguang Province increased by 126 percentage points compared with the same period, exceeding the annual task. What the comrades don't know is that Xiangjiang has contributed more than half, and a 'three-capital' in Xiangjiang has contributed more than half of Xiangjiang! ”

This is equivalent to the export value of one enterprise, accounting for a quarter of the total export value of Dong Quang Province.

Deputy Secretary Xu was stunned and couldn't help asking: "Secretary Wu, what kind of 'three-funded' enterprise is that, is it a joint venture with the United States?" ”

"Last night, "News Network" also reported, adding up to nearly three minutes."

"NB Electronics' Future Window Color TV?"

Secretary Wu nodded slightly, and confirmed with emotion: "NB Electronics is a sub-group of Hong Kong NB Electric Group, but it is such a joint venture subgroup with Xiangjiang, and the total export volume of plane right-angle color TVs and plane right-angle picture tubes in the first half of this year is as high as 865 million US dollars!" If other businesses are included, the total export volume of NB Electric (China) Company in the first half of the year was nearly 1.4 billion.

This is not a small number, you must know that the total export volume of the country's general trade last year was only 38.12 billion US dollars! If there are several such export-oriented 'three foreign-funded' enterprises in Hujiang, how much foreign exchange can be generated for the country every year, and how many profits and taxes can be created for the country? ”

CCTV reported in "News Network" that NB Electronics took less than three minutes, in fact, it only mentioned the "Future Window" color TV, and even NB Electronics did not mention it. Most of the time is in the report to fill the domestic gap, the international leading four-layer spiral medical CT machine and large digital X-ray machine.

Hujiang had a prototype as early as eight years, but due to various reasons, it has not been able to industrialize, and later participated in the national key project "Zhonghua No. 1". It also died without a problem.

A medical CT machine that has not been developed with the strength of the whole country. NB Medical Group, a subsidiary of NB Electric, has quietly come out. Before that. Not only did they not declare any achievements and hold any expert review meetings like normal enterprises or scientific research institutions, but they did not even reveal even the slightest rumor.

As if emerging from the cracks in the stone, a product launch conference was held at the same time in the Hong Kong Science and Technology Center, the Red-crowned Crane Hotel in Guangdu and the auditorium of Andong Institute of Technology, which was directly finalized and mass-produced, and exported to more than a dozen countries such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand.

Deputy Secretary Gu reacted and couldn't help blurting out: "Secretary Wu, Mayor Huang, comrades. A medical CT machine is several million, if you also count it, isn't the export volume of NB Electric in the second half of the year more? ”

"Yes, high-tech, high-value-added equipment, the output value is very fast." Secretary Wu sighed lightly and said with disappointment: "It's a pity that we are late, and we can only watch the flowers fall into other homes." ”

As soon as his words fell, Mayor Huang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "There is a pie falling from the sky, and the secretary of the advance must be happy at this moment." ”

"Mayor Huang, are you saying that NB Electric's factory for the production of medical CT machines is built in Northeast China?"

"In Anton. It's called NB Medical Group. ”

Deputy Secretary Gu was confused, and asked with a puzzled expression: "How could NB Electric go there to invest?" On conditions and circumstances. Anton is far worse than Dongguang and our Hujiang. ”

"There's nothing strange about that."

Mayor Huang and Secretary Wu glanced at each other and introduced unhurriedly: "The scientific research project of CT machine was carried out by several teachers of Andong Institute of Technology at the beginning, and then the funds were fundamentally taken over by NB Electric, and NB Medical was established at that time. As far as I know, in order to engage in this project, NB Electric has invested hundreds of millions of dollars before and after.

Now that the results have been produced, people will naturally repay the favor. In addition, in addition to NB Medical, NB Electric established a joint venture with Andong Institute of Technology a few years ago, and the system of the CT machine was developed by that software company. ”

Discussing a Hong Kong company at such a serious Standing Committee, Vice Mayor Zheng seemed to realize something, and couldn't help but smile and ask: "Secretary Wu, Mayor Huang, is NB Electric interested in coming to our Hujiang to invest?" ”

"You guessed it."

Secretary Wu signaled the secretary general of the municipal party committee to open the door, and confirmed with a smile: "Comrade XP inspected the experimental center of NB Electric during his southern tour, and Li Xiaoshan, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and president of NB Electric (China), said in front of all the entourage that NB Electric Group will move the headquarters of the Chinese company to our Hujiang, and in the next five years, it will invest an additional 4 billion to 5 billion US dollars in China. If you include other Hong Kong enterprises that provide supporting facilities for it, the total investment will exceed 10 billion.

During the Spring Festival in Hujiang, Comrade XP mentioned this matter to me and Mayor Huang more than once. Since the two sessions were about to be convened, and stability was paramount, Mayor Huang and I instructed the SAR Office to contact NB Electric (China) Company first, and did not send out an invitation with great fanfare. ”

Mayor Huang glanced back at Wang, deputy secretary-general of the municipal government and director of the office in the special administrative zone, and added excitedly: "Although it is a business event, we also have to take into account political factors. After all, if such a big cash cow is to be dug up, the comrades in Dongguang, especially in Xiangjiang, will definitely have opinions.

In fact, just as Secretary Wu and I expected, on the third day of the Lunar New Year, Comrade Chang Zaishan, member of the Standing Committee of the Dongguang Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Xiangjiang Municipal Party Committee, went to the Hong Kong headquarters of NB Electric Group in person to try to persuade the board of directors of NB Electric to retract the decision to relocate the headquarters of the Chinese company, and to strive for the billions of dollars of investment promised by NB Electric to stay in Xiangjiang and stay in Dongguang. ”

"Did NB Electric agree?"

"No," Secretary Wu smiled heartily: "People are very discerning, and they have identified us as Hujiang, Comrade Jimin, you can introduce us to the specific situation." ”

"Yes."

Wang Jimin, deputy secretary-general of the municipal government and director of the Hujiang Municipal People's Government Office in the Special Economic Zone, dragged a small cart full of cardboard boxes from outside the conference room, and while distributing a beautifully printed letter of intent to the leaders of the municipal party committee, he introduced with a smile on his eyebrows: "Secretary Wu, Mayor Wang, and all the leaders, NB Electric has long been prepared for the issue of moving the headquarters to Hujiang and investing in Hujiang. They have branches in Hujiang, and President Li Xiaoshan and Vice President Hu Meiqi of the Chinese company are both from Hujiang, so it can be said that they know Hujiang very well. And has been paying attention to the development of the Shanghai River. ”

Deputy Secretary Gu was happy. Put on your glasses and smile: "The presidents and vice presidents are all from Hujiang." That's a good thing. ”

"President Li Xiaoshan's home is in Huixu District, he joined the army in 75 years, participated in the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, and won the third-class meritorious service, and was placed in a street enterprise after demobilization, and resigned before the end of 85. Vice President Hu Meiqi is his lover, before resigning was a technician of the City Tractor Automobile Company, since 86 years after going to the Xiangjiang Special Economic Zone, he has served as the president and deputy general manager of NB Electric (China). It can be said that the couple are the veterans of NB Electric. ”

The background of the president and vice president is very important, and it is directly related to how to deal with each other next.

Deputy Secretary Gu looked at the investment letter of intent of NB Electric Group, and said meaningfully: "Comrade Ji Min, from ordinary employees to general managers, this span is not small. ”

NB Electric was developed in the Special Economic Zone, and the details of several executives were easy to touch, Wang Jimin gently pushed aside the trolley with a full 18 cartons on it, and reported in a few cases: "The span is not small, which has a lot to do with Mr. Li's experience in the army." Because the wife of Mr. Liu Siwei, chairman of the board of directors of NB Electric Group, and Ms. Liu Zhanghui, who is also the third largest shareholder of NB Electric, is a native of Nanbin. NB Electric (China) Company immigrated to Hong Kong.

And Mrs. Liu's father, Zhang Yuanchao, is a martyr, not only with Mr. Li. is also the battalion commander of General Li; In addition, the largest shareholder of NB Electric is not Mr. Liu Siwei, but Mrs. Liu's younger brother, it can be said that the Zhang and Li families are friends of life and death, and it is even rumored that Camp Commander Zhang died to save Mr. Li. ”

In the past six months, the export volume of a large company with an export volume of more than one billion US dollars has served as the president and vice president, not so much to repay the favor as to defect. Deputy Secretary Gu didn't say anything more, and looked at the letter of intent intently.

"It was because they knew Hujiang very well that they politely declined my invitation to visit on behalf of the municipal government. They pay attention to efficiency, whether it is the Hong Kong-listed company NB Electrician and NB Electric's complete set of factories in the Special Economic Zone, or the wholly-owned company NB Electric and the joint venture NB Electronics Group, all of them were approved in the same year, started construction in the same year, completed in the same year, and put into production in the same year.

In addition, they are very busy now, NB Electrician, NB Electrical and NB Electrical have several large projects in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, with a total contract of more than one billion dollars; Not to mention NB Electronics, Xiangjiang Customs has almost served their family during this time; There is also NB Medical Group, which has just been officially operated, although the equipment is produced in Anton, but the export still has to pass through the Chinese company headquarters in Xiangjiang. So even if they don't know much about our Hujiang, they don't have time to come and investigate. ”

The Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have cooperated with large foreign groups such as Volkswagen of Germany and McDonnell Douglas of the United States for so many years, and it is no wonder that this kind of thing has long been seen.

Wang Jimin paused and continued to report: "NB Electric has many businesses, which can be roughly divided into seven businesses: power generation and transmission and distribution, electronics, medical care, industrial automation, banking, aviation, software development and tourism. The NB electrician, NB electrical appliances and NB electrical complete sets in the Special Economic Zone, the NB industrial manufacturing, NB instrumentation and NB power in Germany, the NB transformer company in Vietnam, and the NB wire and cable company in Russia all belong to the power generation and transmission and distribution group.

There are no major projects in the country, but the Gulf and Vietnam are doing very well. They participated in the reconstruction of Kuwait, including power plants, power grid emergency repairs, high-voltage circuit erection and grid automation control; In Europe there are six waste-to-energy plants under construction or proposed, and in Germany in particular, they have a grid company that supplies electricity to millions of people. ”

Power generation, transmission and distribution are the core business of people, and NB electronics and NB medical can only be ranked behind. Vice Mayor Peng, who was in charge of electric power, was taken aback, looked up and asked, "Comrade Jimin, are you saying that they not only produce power equipment, but also engage in power operation?" ”

"Yes, and it's been started a long time ago, and they also have investments in African countries, with loans from NB Bank to help build a thermal power plant in Namibia. It is now being designed, and construction is expected to begin by the end of the year. ”

Wang Jimin turned around, pointed to a pile of cardboard boxes on the car, and continued: "NB Power Generation and Transmission and Distribution Group plans to invest in the construction of a power transformer company, a special cable company, an electrical complete set company and an automation control company in Hujiang. In the box there are several plans they proposed, some joint ventures and some sole proprietorships, for our reference. ”

Very sincerely, indeed. Otherwise, we would never have been so well prepared. Secretary Wu nodded slightly. Motioning for him to continue.

"NB Electronics Group is not limited to the production of flat right-angle color TVs. The day before I returned, they had just signed patent swap agreements with Philips in the Netherlands, Fourstar in South Korea, and Sharp in Japan, and would be involved in laptop manufacturing, LCD display manufacturing, and Big Brother manufacturing. Like the Power Generation and Transmission and Distribution Group, NB Electronics is also planning to invest in the construction of three factories in Hujiang. ”

Real high-tech, Peng Vice City is excited, secretly thinking about how many profits and taxes these projects can bring to Hujiang in the future once they are implemented.

"Industrial automation is the core business of NB Technology, and they are very mature in this area. I've been to the factory that produces future window color TVs, it's really an automated production line, especially the shadow mask workshop and the picture tube assembly workshop, I can't see a few people, it's all computer-controlled, in their words, it's called 'black light workshop', and you can produce it when you turn off the lights. ”

Wang Jimin pointed to a cardboard box at the bottom of the trolley and added: "They hope to cooperate with Xinhua Company, which is also engaged in automation, in this regard, and is willing to provide production line upgrading services for enterprises in the city." ”

………

The letter of intent for investment is a catalog, and the specific plan is in a carton. For the reference of the corresponding departments and enterprises.

Not only is it very well thought out, but it's amazingly big. With a total investment of billions of dollars, it is necessary to build a real NB industrial park in Hujiang!

"Comrades, that's the general situation."

Secretary Wu patted the letter of intent before the case, and said very seriously: "The Party Central Committee and the State Council attach great importance to the investment intention of NB Electric, and hope that we will not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." To this end, a special elite general was sent to coordinate the relationship with NB Electric.

If the name is not right, it is not good, only in the most suitable position can we do a good job, and then we will discuss personnel. Minister Guan, could you please introduce Comrade Chen Zhenghuai's resume? ”

"It's good."

The organization minister took out a stack of documents from the file bag and read in a frustrated voice: "Chen Zhenghuai, male, 49 years old, Han nationality, college degree, from Haibin City, Dongshan Province, joined the army in 1960, joined the party in 1962, and was promoted to cadre in 66, successively serving as platoon commander, deputy instructor, and instructor. From 70 to 73, he entered the Political Academy of the PLF Army for further study, and after graduation, he returned to his original unit to serve as a deputy battalion-level officer of the Division's Cadre Section, and in 76 he was transferred to the instructor of the Second Battalion of the Second Regiment of the Division, and was promoted to the deputy political commissar of the Second Regiment in 1981.

During his tenure as battalion-level commander, Comrade Chen Zhenghuai united and led the 'group of people' of the branch committee, firmly grasped the direction of the political construction of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, upheld the party's absolute leadership over the troops, resolutely supported the line, principles, and policies decided by the Central Military Commission, and conscientiously implemented a series of instructions and requirements of the Central Y Military Commission on army building.

In the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, Comrade Chen Zhenghuai took the lead and fought bravely, but he still insisted on staying in the line of fire after being wounded...... He has won the first-class merit once, the second-class merit twice, and the third-class merit six times. In 1987, he changed careers and successively served as deputy director of the Foreign Economic Cooperation Commission of Haibin City, Dongshan Province, and deputy director of the Department of Foreign Economic and Technological Cooperation of the State Economic and Trade Commission......

Needless to say, he must be the comrade-in-arms of Liu Siwei, chairman of the board of directors of NB Electric Group, Zhang Yuanchao, and Li Xiaoshan, president of NB Electric (China) Company, when he was in the army.

Looking at the appearance of everyone smiling but not smiling, Secretary Wu's face was straight: "Comrades, although Comrade Chen Zhenghuai is a demobilized cadre, he has made outstanding contributions to the country's foreign economic cooperation during his tenure as deputy director of the Haibin City Foreign Economic Cooperation Commission. It can be said that without his efforts, China's enterprises are likely to be wiped out in the international competition for the reconstruction of the Gulf.

In addition, he also actively coordinated the relations between the Chinese-funded institutions involved in the reconstruction and the Kuwaiti government, and was not ordered to return to China until all the major projects undertaken by China were on the right track. Both the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Economic and Trade made commendations, and even the prime minister was very impressed by him. ”

Nengwen Nengwu is a talent, but where is it appropriate to put him, Deputy Secretary Gu pondered for a moment and proposed: "Secretary Chang, Mayor Wang, how about letting Comrade Chen Zhenghuai serve as the deputy head of Yanghu District?" ”

The city is preparing to set up the Hudong New Area, waiting for the approval of the State Council.

Chen Zhenghuai is the deputy director of a national ministry, and it is certainly not appropriate for him to go to Dongsha County, which is about to be abolished. Go to Yanghu District, which is also part of the new district to be classified as the deputy head of the district, and make the transition, which is a way to get the best of both worlds.

If you want the horses to run, you have to give the horses grass, Deputy Secretary Zhang thinks that this arrangement is a bit unreasonable, and said: "People are from national ministries and commissions, so they have to be raised to a level, right?" ”

Without local work experience, it is impossible for him to serve as secretary of the district party committee or district head, and even if he has local work experience, the enthusiasm of local cadres must be taken into account. After all, a radish is a pit, so many people are waiting.

"Then the deputy secretary general of the government is originally here to do coordination, and it is just right to serve as the deputy secretary general of the government."

There are eight deputy secretaries-general of the municipal government, and they don't care about one more, to everyone's surprise, Secretary Wu shook his head: "Comrade Chen Zhenghuai has a high political consciousness, and after learning the real intention of transferring him to Hujiang, he immediately told the comrades of the Central Organization Department who talked to him that he was not suitable for a leadership position, because his son-in-law Ding Wenming is the director and vice president of NB Electric Group, and he needs to avoid suspicion." ”

Originally, I wanted to wait for the official establishment of Hudong New Area and let him serve as the deputy secretary or deputy head of the Party Working Committee at the bureau level, but I didn't expect people to be unwilling. However, there is such a rich son-in-law, and it really doesn't matter to him whether he is an official or not.

Deputy Secretary Gu sighed secretly, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "That's not easy to arrange, after all, it was from the ministry and commission, and it will be of great use in the future, so you can't let him go to the National People's Congress and the CPPCC, right?" ”

It's not easy to arrange, Secretary Wu also had a headache, so he simply turned sideways and asked, "Mayor Huang, what do you think?" ”

Mayor Huang weighed it and said thoughtfully: "Comrade Ke Shancun is not in good health, or Comrade Chen Zhenghuai will take over as director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office." ”

Secretary Wu slapped his forehead, and suddenly said with a smile: "It's really a fan of the authorities and a bystander, which is not only within the scope of authority, but also can avoid suspicion to the greatest extent, comrades, let's vote." (To be continued......)
