Chapter 689: Looking Forward to Qiongzhou

As soon as Zhou Shengli left, the next thing was the content of the closed-door meeting.

After carefully studying the content of the "Plan" about their own piece, the local officials came to the stage to ask Zhong Bai and Ye Xing questions.

This scene is a little chaotic, similar to the feeling that students are asking teachers for answers to their difficult questions before the college entrance examination.

However, in the absence of RB and the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Zhong Bai still answered everyone's questions quickly and accurately.

After all, no matter how good the plan is, it is not enough to have money alone, and it must rely on the vigorous cooperation and implementation of these local grassroots officials, otherwise it will only achieve half the result.

There were more than ten days a year ago when such a big project suddenly came, and it was impossible to say that everyone's hearts did not resist at the beginning, after all, "more things are better than less things", but with Zhong Bai and Ye Xing's in-depth explanation, Hu Yanjun emphasized that this project has the spiritual requirements of relevant ministries and commissions, and the hearts of grassroots officials gradually became open.

The establishment of a large state-owned rare earth concentrate plant is also an urgent ZZ task, and with the participation of higher departments, it is not only a great thing for the local rare earth industry, but also for the future of the officials themselves, of course, there is no need to say much, everyone is not stupid, as long as the funds and policies are in place, there is no reason not to let go of their hands to do it.

“…… Well, I didn't expect this meeting to be open until half past ten in the evening. Hu Yanjun saw that everyone should have asked about the same question, so he pressed his hands and said: "Tomorrow, please ask the Finance Bureau, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, the bank and other units to work hard, let's first collect all the funds raised and do a good job in the registration of the new factory; The power bureau, water supply company, supply and marketing cooperative, industrial bureau and other relevant units should also be ready for the next step of the work at all times, everyone hurry back to rest, and if there are any difficulties in work coordination, you can directly find Meng Xiujie District Mayor and me to reflect; For the specific technical details of the work, just find Director Ye and Section Chief Zhong. ”

Everyone left satisfied, and Meng Xiujie finally breathed a sigh of relief today.

After all, the results of the last inspection, he knew very well in his heart that Han Yi, deputy director of the Autonomous Region Rare Earth Office who led the team at that time, was actually not very satisfied with his work, and there was also the meaning of letting himself "make meritorious contributions".

Since I can't think of any good way in my brain, it is better to honestly cooperate with the big plan put forward by the comrades of the Ministry of Industry and the Department of Industry, and do a good job in service and coordination.

Of course, Meng Xiujie had the biggest question in his heart before leaving the venue.

That is what Section Chief Zhong Bai just said, "special issues are reprinted to foreign media for reprinting fees, and those foreign media will rush to it".

Is it really that powerful to make a special issue published by an obscure newspaper attract the attention of foreign media?

……

Back at the guest house, Ye Xing and Hu Yanjun couldn't stand it anymore, wiped their faces and fell asleep on their beds.

But Zhong Bai didn't rest, and called Yu Dongfeng to his room as soon as possible.

Although he was only regarded as a "tool man" at the venue today, I have to say that for the grassroots, if you say 10,000 good words to describe the blueprint of the new factory, you can't make this kind of operation with a 5 million bank cashier's check to be effective!

"Zhong Bai, this time I took out all the net worth of the group!" Yu Dongfeng, who had been holding back in the venue for a long time, took out Hongta Mountain and threw one to Zhong Bai, lit it himself, took a deep breath and said: "But to be honest, there is indeed a gap between the motivation of Baiyun Obo Mining Area and Yudu. ”

"This is normal, after all, this is a single-resource city. Rare earths are important, but there is still no recognition of how important they are. Zhong Bai nodded and said: "There are large enterprises such as Huaguo Heavy Duty Truck Factory in Yudu, which have been established since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the local requirements for industrialization far exceed those in the west and other parts of North China. But then again, your new outfit today is quite eye-catching! ”

Hearing this, Yu Dongfeng couldn't help but tease: "Heh, you're laughing at me again, aren't you?" It's not that you don't know that this new Armani style was originally specially brought back by Chu Juan, but what did you say that it was not suitable to wear in the workplace, but it was on me, fortunately Juanzi didn't know, if she saw the clothes on me here, I'm afraid she wouldn't scold me, right? ”

The best gift a woman can give to a man she loves is nothing more than an expensive and decent new dress, which has not changed for thousands of years.

Zhong Bai thought about how he hadn't seen Juanzi for a long time in the past few months because of work, even if he returned to Tiandu for a short time last time, he was busy running errands or something, and he didn't think that Chu Juan was still in Tiandu, of course, when he remembered, Chu Juan had already taken someone to Italy to talk about new clothes with Armani Company.

Thinking of this, Zhong Bai said casually: "Hey, when this time is over, let's see if I can call Juanzi after the New Year, go to Qiongzhou to play, and relax." ”

"Yo, there are times when you want to relax? Aren't you a workaholic every day! Yu Dongfeng was quite surprised: "But why did you think of going to Qiongzhou?" So far away! ”

Qiongzhou was later Qiong Province, but now it is still part of Lingnan Province.

It was not until 1988 that the state abolished the administrative region of Qiongzhou in Lingnan Province, established Qiongzhou Province as a separate province and regarded it as the largest special economic zone in China, and began to embark on the road of rapid development.

"It's nothing, isn't it very cold for the New Year in Tianhe Province, Qiongzhou is close to the sea, it's warm, it's not bad to go and see the sea." Zhong Bai said casually.

However, what he didn't tell Yu Dongfeng is that there are actually many preferential policies over there, such as in terms of exports, there are some unknown tariff preferences, etc., and the country has actually always wanted to build a trade zone there, although it was only a prototype in 83, but Zhong Bai vaguely felt that with his own rebirth, it was possible to speed up this progress, and when the time came, the rare earth concentrate produced by the new factory in Baiyun Obo Mining Area could also be considered, not to take the old way of railway transportation to Jinmen Port for export, What about getting preferential policies from Qiongzhou instead?

Don't underestimate this change, and don't think that the extra thousands of kilometers will increase the cost of freight and export time.

In fact, many developed countries have established free trade zones with specific tariffs and export policies in the 80s, and the use of these free trade zones not only has various conveniences in the settlement of foreign exchange, but also can rely on the preferential policies of the free trade zone to implement some specific business negotiations that are not easy to implement, which is conducive to the unified management of the country.

In Zhong Bai's eyes, the export of rare earth concentrate in China is bound to attract the attention of RB, MD and even relevant European countries after such a toss, and then Jinmen Port, a foreign trade port that only for RB exports, may have a short board.

Instead of this, it is better to see a few years in advance if a specific small free trade zone can be made in Qiongzhou?

Of course, the export of rare earth concentrate alone is far from enough to set up the entire Qiongzhou as a free trade zone.

However, anyway, the cargo throughput of Qiongzhou's port is not large, and even the largest Xiuying Port is not ranked among the top 50 in the country, which can be used as a pilot port in a small free trade zone.
