Chapter 880: The Forgotten Province of Xishan

It is about such a large amount of money, almost all provinces and cities are the provincial (municipal) mayors in charge, and some even the secretaries are personally out of the horse, and the eight immortals cross the sea to show their magical powers, and now when the results are revealed, the provincial (municipal) governors of these shortlisted provinces and cities are either nervously stretching their necks and looking around, or they are forced to close their eyes calmly.

There is only one person looking forward to self-pride, from time to time with colleagues next to him to talk and laugh, seems full of confidence, this person is Xichuan Provincial Governor Shu Danming, this Shu Danming is also a "red three generations", but different from the general gentleman, Shu Danming has been ambitious since he was a child, with the goal of reaching the pinnacle of power, strict requirements for himself, honest and self-disciplined, he is also very outstanding, starting from the grassroots level, where he has outstanding political achievements, all the way to the top, in his early forties, he became a feudal official, can be regarded as the best of the three generations of red, It is quite appreciated and valued by the central leadership.

In recent years, the state has promoted the large-scale development of the western region and given a large number of policy preferences, and Shu Danming has won a large piece of the cake by virtue of his excellent connections in the central government, and his political achievements have been remarkable, and the economic growth rate of Xichuan Province ranks first in the western provinces and cities, and also ranks in the forefront of the country.

For this special subsidy fund, Shu Danming is bound to get, and even rarely uses his family's connections, and he has already received internal information that Xichuan Province is almost certain to receive this special support fund, so he will be so confident.

At this time, Zetao walked in, Shu Danming's eyes flashed, for Duan Zetao, who was also the leader of the three generations of red, although he had never dealt with him, he was highly concerned, because Duan Zetao was likely to become his biggest competitor to the pinnacle of power, but he quickly greeted him with a smile as usual, "Comrade Zetao, why are you here, if I remember correctly, it seems that Xishan Province has not been shortlisted this time......."

Duan Zetao had seen Shu Danming when he held the National Economic Work Conference before, but at that time, Shu Danming was speaking on the rostrum as an advanced representative, and from Shu Danming's seemingly ordinary question just now, he heard a kind of condescending arrogance, so he smiled slightly, and said not to be outdone: "Comrade Danming, as long as the leaders have not made a final decision, everything is possible, isn't it?!" ……”。

Shu Danming's eyes flashed again, and he was about to speak, when Wang Xianguo walked out of the conference room, beckoned to Duan Zetao, and said, "Comrade Zetao, come in, the leaders agree to give you ten minutes to complain ......", Duan Zetao nodded at Shu Danming, and quickly followed Wang Xianguo into the conference room.

In fact, before Duan Zetao walked into the conference room, there had just been a heated discussion here, when Li Shijin proposed to add Xishan Province to the list, it was strongly opposed by some leaders, thinking that this was not in accordance with the rules, and finally the prime minister spoke, "The rules are set by people, our special support funds are to the provinces that need it most, to create the best benefits, since Xishan Province thinks they need this fund the most, give them ten minutes to explain the reason, after listening to their complaints, let's vote again...... ”。

So when Duan Zetao walked into the conference room, except for a few people such as Li Shijin who smiled and nodded at him, many leaders did not look good, mainly because Duan Zetao's "notoriety" of not playing cards according to the rules was too loud, and people who didn't really know him would have a good impression of him, and the prime minister lowered his head and recorded something in his notebook, without even raising his head.

To say that Duan Zetao was not nervous at this time was false, his palms were sweating, "Let's start!" The prime minister suddenly raised his head and smiled at him, and said gently, Duan Zetao felt warm in his heart, full of strength, calmed down, bowed deeply to the leaders present, and said loudly: "Hello leaders, I came to Xishan Province three months ago to serve as the vice governor, and after arriving in Xishan Province, I found that I really didn't know much about Xishan Province in the past, and my previous impression of Xishan Province was too superficial and even wrong!" ……”。

"Xishan Province used to be the richest province in China, Xishan ticket number once spread all over the country and even opened to Europe, in the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Japanese invaders also regarded Xishan Province as a battleground, sent heavy troops to guard, Xishan people rely on etheric behavior, with flesh and blood to do life and death with the invaders, and made an indelible contribution to the victory of the War of Resistance against Japan! Among the martyrs in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Xishan Province accounted for more than one-fifth...... At the beginning of liberation, Xishan Province's economic aggregate also ranked second in the country, second only to Yanjing! Among them, the total value of heavy industry accounts for one-third of the total value of national heavy industry ......".

At this time, someone knocked on the table and said impatiently: "Comrade Zetao, we are not here to listen to your history lesson, everyone's time is precious, please cut to the chase as soon as possible!" ……”。

Duan Zetao didn't know where he got the courage, and said without showing weakness: "What I'm talking about is the right topic, Xishan Province has such a deep economic foundation and rich coal resources, but why is the economy of Xishan Province in a backward position in the country now, in the past, I always thought that this was a problem in Xishan Province itself, but when I arrived in Xishan, I found that in addition to the subjective problems of Xishan Province, there are also objective reasons, because Xishan Province has been making sacrifices and paying without regrets for the economic development of the whole country!" ……”。

"After the reform and development, the country's policy is to give priority to the development of coastal special zones, and then later, the state called for the east as the construction center, give priority to the development of the eastern economy, economic development needs coal, a car of empty wagons into Xishan, and then pulled away a car of heavy Ujin, coal for Xishan, is blood! It's bright red blood! This is how Xishan has been pumping blood to the national economy without regrets! What is left to them is environmental pollution and dust from predatory mining! Later, Xishan Province changed coal transportation to power transmission, and Xishan Province has several large-scale thermal power plants in the country, but in order to ensure the power supply for the economic development of the eastern region, Xishan Province has to limit power every day! Yamabara Iron & Steel Group Company alone lost 2.5 billion yuan due to power outages last year! The province lost hundreds of billions due to power outages! ……”。

Duan Zetao became more and more excited, and waved his hand vigorously: "But Xishan Province, which has been sacrificing and paying for the country's economic development without regrets, seems to be "forgotten", the revitalization of the east, without Xishan Province, the rise of the central region, without Xishan Province, the development of the western region, and also without Xishan Province. Although it is located in the middle of China, there is hardly a single important transportation artery that passes through Xishan; Since there is no national or regional market, the radiation effect of Xishan's economy and culture on the surrounding areas is almost zero......".
