After listening to Ye Ming's point of view, Zhang Jiankun was noncommittal, squinted his eyes slightly, looked thoughtfully at Su Xueling in the passenger seat, and suddenly asked: "Comrade Xueling, are you in favor or against Secretary Ye's decision?" ”

Su Xueling was staring at the front of the car window uneasily, and suddenly heard Zhang Jiankun's question, and was stunned for a while before replying: "Minister Zhang, I was originally engaged in literary and artistic work, and later I entered China Merchants purely to catch ducks on the shelves, and I don't understand many things, especially the laws and policies related to taxation and land, and I don't know anything. However, yesterday at the construction site of the development zone, I listened to Secretary Ye explain his decision, and listed in detail the policies and laws on the collection of land use tax and land transfer fees, some of which were still recited in the original language. After listening to this, I felt that the preferential policies for attracting investment that were originally implemented by the county did not conform to laws and regulations, and they must be corrected. ”

Zhang Jiankun was a little surprised by Su Xueling's answer, stared at her a few times, then turned his head to look at Ye Ming, and said in a dissatisfied tone: "Xiao Ye, Xiao Su, my original decision to exempt these investors from land use tax and land transfer fees was not decided on a whim, but after learning from many places and collectively discussing and deciding. Our Beishan County is a poor area, the economic foundation is weak, the traffic conditions are very poor, there are no bright spots and advantages in attracting investment, if there is no introduction of some attractive special preferential policies, it is simply impossible to attract funds and developers.

Facts have also proved that these two policies are very effective, attracting eight Beishan enterprises to enter the development zone, leveling the land, building roads, building factories, each enterprise investment has reached more than two million yuan. Although these enterprises have not yet been formally put into production and operation, and the amount of investment has not reached the original agreed amount, it is true that there is a huge risk for them to invest in the current economic situation and investment environment in Beishan. Businessmen are profit-seeking, and we should understand them and do everything possible to improve the investment environment, eliminate their concerns, and attract them to invest more money in the development zone. ”

Ye Ming asked quietly: "Minister Zhang, do you want us to continue to implement those two preferential policies?" ”

Zhang Jiankun was silent for a moment and said: "Xiao Ye, I have left Beishan now, and I am in charge of the work of the propaganda mouth, and the county and city where the hanging point is not Beishan County, so I am not qualified to make irresponsible comments about your current investment promotion policy." However, because I presided over the formulation of the preferential policies in the past, although I no longer serve as the secretary of the Beishan County Party Committee, I am still responsible for the promises I made to those investors. Otherwise, the Beishan County Party Committee and County Government will lose their integrity.

"Just yesterday, I received a call from Mr. Liu Hong, Secretary General of the Min'an Yanjing Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Liu Hong is a native of Beishan and one of the investors who own 200 acres of land in the Beishan Development Zone. He complained on the phone that Beishan County's investment promotion policy has no continuity, and that the preferential policies have been formulated and now regretted it, and if this continues, the investment environment in Beishan will become worse and worse, and the competitiveness of investment promotion will become weaker and weaker, and it may even discourage all investors.

"What I'm worried about now is that if your county insists on collecting land transfer fees and land use taxes from those eight investors who occupy the land, they are likely to immediately terminate their investment plans in Beishan, and spread the word that Beishan has a bad investment environment and that the government is not honest. Not to mention anything else, there are three enterprises in the Beijing Min'an Chamber of Commerce that occupy land in the development zone. The owners of these three enterprises are the initiators of the Min'an Chamber of Commerce, and in addition to the Secretary-General Mr. Liu Hong, who I just mentioned, there are two vice presidents and directors of the Chamber of Commerce.

"If your county wants to change the policy of attracting investment and pursue land transfer fees and taxes, it will definitely offend these three investors. Because they have a lot of influence in the Chamber of Commerce, offending them is equivalent to offending the Min'an entrepreneurs in the entire capital. In this way, when you go to the capital to attract investment this time, you may not only return empty-handed, but you may even be snubbed and coldly treated. When the time comes, other counties and cities will be lively in holding investment fairs and signing investment promotion agreements, but the two of you will be deserted and no one will look at you, and that kind of taste will not be very pleasant!

"I would like to emphasize again: I have no right to interfere with the change of the investment promotion policy in your county, nor can I give any instructions or orders, but I just want to make a small suggestion: for the time being, do not change the preferential policies for investment promotion four years ago, and do not forcibly pursue taxes and land transfer fees, so that those entrepreneurs who are willing to invest in Beishan can see the integrity of the Beishan County Party Committee and County Government, and may be able to get some gains in this investment promotion activity. Otherwise, you may encounter a very embarrassing situation in the capital. ”

When Ye Ming heard these words that were half persuasion and half threat, he understood Zhang Jiankun's true intention of deliberately calling himself and Su Xueling into the car, and he was very angry in his heart, but on the surface, he was as calm as water, and said unhurriedly: "Minister Zhang, thank you for the reminder." I have a different view on the matter, though. If we say that we are not honest, it is first of all that those investors are not honest first. According to the comrades of the development zone, the county party committee and the county government gave them such a preferential policy because of the conditions, requiring them to invest in the development of the land within two years, and the amount of investment in the first phase should not be less than 20 million yuan, and it should be formally put into production and operation, otherwise, the government has the right to take back the land.

But now, four years later, they have only built a few lonely factories on that land, and each company has invested only a mere 2 million yuan, only one-tenth of the first phase of investment they promised. Therefore, I have reason to suspect that two years ago they invested a little money in pre-development, not really wanting to invest in production, but to continue to occupy the land. To put it bluntly, they have no intention of coming to Beishan to invest in business.

"If these investors don't put integrity first, why do we insist on the wrong preferential policies? Therefore, I still insist on my decision: if these investors do not pay back taxes and land transfer fees, and do not invest in the development of the land and put it into production and operation as soon as possible, we will take back the land in accordance with laws and regulations and transfer it to other investors in good faith. We in Beishan are indeed in urgent need of attracting investment, but we do not welcome those speculators and profiteers who encroach on national interests in the name of investment! ”

In the last few words, he said it sonorously and loudly, which made Su Xueling, who had been listening intently, secretly exclaim "happy" in her heart, but Zhang Jiankun's face suddenly became extremely gloomy!
