Sun Guangshi, who was wearing old glasses, had not yet opened the address book of the year, so he asked Zhong Bai: "I'll find it for you, Qiongzhou Island...... Although there is no industrial department in that place, I know a 'deputy director'! If I'm not mistaken, he should have retired half a year earlier than me, I don't know if Fu meets your requirements? ”

"That's definitely no problem, just ask you to see if you can contact that leader!" As soon as Zhong Bai heard that there was a play, he immediately said with joy.

Cadres at the deputy department level should not be underestimated in any place, even in the capital.

And for Qiongzhou Island, which has not yet established itself as an independent province and is only a part of Lingnan Province, it is even more important.

The entire Qiongzhou Island was called "Qiongzhou Administrative Region of Lingnan Province" after the establishment of Xinhua until January 1980, when it was renamed the Qiongzhou Administrative Region Office.

It was not until eight years later, on April 13, 1988, that the central government decided to abolish the Qiongzhou Administrative Region of Lingnan Province and establish Qiongzhou Province and the Qiongzhou Special Economic Zone.

This also means that before 1988, there was no unit at the level of the Industrial Department in the industrial system of Qiongzhou Island, and the highest level was the Industrial Bureau of the Qiongzhou Administrative Region.

However, this industrial bureau is not the same as the general municipal industrial bureau, after all, its jurisdiction is too large, so it is not a standard configuration, the main leader is the main hall, and the team members are the deputy department.

In other words, it sounds like an industrial bureau in the name, but in fact it is a smaller industrial department, and of course, there is also the Lingnan Provincial Industrial Department on it, which is subordinate to the latter in terms of business and administration.

And the reason why Zhong Bai wanted to ask Sun Guangshi to help him with this is also very simple.

He didn't tell Ye Xing about going to Qiongzhou Island, in fact, it was easier to find the other party for help, after all, he was still the deputy director of the Ministry of Industry of the People's Republic of China, and with Ye Xing's direct connection, it was very easy to find someone after he arrived in Qiongzhou.

But Zhong Bai took into account Ye Xing's current sensitive identity, and there was a great risk in engaging in an extremely advanced concept of a small free trade zone, Zhong Bai didn't want to take the credit on himself, but in case there were any twists and turns in the middle, it would be easy to implicate the person who was pulling the strings, so he thought about it, and neither looked for Ye Xing nor Lu Xudong, but took advantage of this opportunity to give Sun Guangshi a New Year's greeting, and asked Uncle Sun to help him connect the retired old cadres of the Qiongzhou industrial system!

Retired veteran cadres have many peculiarities, especially retired veteran cadres who have reached a certain level.

Although they are not as high as when they were in office, their influence still exists, and they can quickly find the comrades who are now in charge through the old cadres, which is a shortcut, and because the retired old cadres have been relieved of their positions, they do not have the same heavy self-centered viewpoint as before, but are more accepting of new things!

This can be seen from the last time Zhong Bai found Sikong Huai, an old researcher of the underground mine in Heyuan City, and the other party bombarded the management in the end, and finally succeeded in changing the thinking of the monolithic mine!

I saw Sun Guangshi carefully flip through the address book for about five minutes, then raised his head and smiled slightly: "This old Wei, I'm afraid I have a little appetite for you, but this address book is the phone number of the local old cadre bureau, and I don't know if I can contact it." By the way, Xiao Zhong, can you tell me clearly the real reason why you went to Qiongzhou to find retired veteran cadres from the industrial port? This Qiongzhou and Baiyun Obo mining area are separated by 108,000 miles, and they can't match the rare earth work you are doing now? ”

According to Huaguo's regulations, as long as cadres at or above the deputy department level retire, they must be uniformly planned and managed by the local veteran cadre bureaus, which not only shows the organization's concern for these grassroots senior officials, but also organizes quite a lot of activities, so that they can not only spend their old age in peace, but also contribute their wisdom.

And the "old Wei" in Sun Guangshi's mouth is Wei Zhengguo, who was the deputy director of the Industrial Bureau of Qiongzhou Administrative Region!

"Qiongzhou has a lot to do with the rare earth work I am doing now! Uncle Sun, I don't know if you have heard of the fact that developed countries such as MD and RB have already established industrial free trade zones......"

Since the other party asked, Zhong Bai told Sun Guangshi about the idea of setting up a small free trade zone in Qiongzhou!

Rao is Sun Guangshi has seen Zhong Bai N's unconventional operations many times, and he has already emancipated his mind now, but hearing such a whimsical set of measures also made him stunned for three minutes before he came back to his senses!

"Ah......h Xiao Zhong, I don't even know what to comment! This kind of groundbreaking measure, even those old professors in the GWE Foreign Economic Research Office in Beijing don't dare to think so! Sun Guangshi finally expressed his attitude: "However, although there is no precedent in my country, I have also seen some of the benefits of the establishment of free trade zones in developed countries in the literature, which does help to promote the development of the entire specific industry through policies in a short period of time, and can also increase the macro control of ZF, and can also make changes to the fluctuations of the international market in advance, which can be regarded as an adjustable 'reservoir'!" If you want to try, of course I support it, but this coordination is a little too difficult......"

"It's okay, Uncle Sun, what did I do before that was of low difficulty?" Zhong Bai replied confidently: "It is precisely because of its good prospects that it is difficult to coordinate. However, for the export of rare earth concentrates in China, the establishment of a small free trade zone has a hundred benefits and no harm, and we would rather spend more time tossing and troublesome now, rather than consider these problems after the official mass production of rare earth concentrates in the north. If you still take the traditional eastern railway transportation to Jinmen Port and export general industrial products, small RB enterprises must not laugh? Isn't this a return to the old ways? ”

Seeing that Zhong Bai was so determined, Sun Guangshi's last worry was put down, and he nodded: "Well, I don't understand the rare earth concentrate industry, what you said must be representative." Okay, I'll try to call that over there now, you wait! ”

The retired old director also installed a telephone at home, and this treatment was considered luxurious at the beginning of 1983.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, I called the Qiongzhou Administrative Region Veteran Cadres Bureau, which was to test whether the other party was serious and in place during the Spring Festival.

Fortunately, the veteran cadres bureau on duty still did a good job, and soon after contacting an office duty officer of the veteran cadres bureau in the Qiongzhou Administrative Region, Sun Guangshi left his previous position and name, and hung up the phone and waited for the other party's response.

The other party said that he would send someone to Director Wei's house to inform him within an hour. But whether he will call back within today, I don't dare to be sure......" Sun Guangshi looked at his watch and said, "Oh, it's already four o'clock in the afternoon, since you have to wait, then you might as well stay at my house tonight to eat, the leek box made by your aunt is very delicious, I asked her to prepare to go to ......"
