After two years of arduous struggle, the south-to-north water diversion project, which has far-reaching influence, was fully completed under the auspices of Chen Zhongyang, the commander-in-chief, and the clear water of Daze Lake continued to flow through the land of Pingchuan and into the ancient city of Pingchuan, which not only completely solved the problem of agricultural irrigation water in the eight counties and cities of the entire Pingchuan area, but also fundamentally solved the historical thirst of a central city.

The stinky water in the area of Pingchuan Sankong Bridge benefited from this, and it became a beautiful and colorful new West Lake in one fell swoop. The measured results show that the water surface area of Pingchuan New West Lake is nearly one square kilometer more than the water surface area of the famous West Lake in Hangzhou. The bidding for the attractions of Xinxi Lake was very successful, and even the municipal party committee and the city ** were a little surprised. Fifty-six legal person collectives, including provincial and ministerial units stationed in Pingchuan, have invested nearly 200 million yuan around the new West Lake, and have successively built 32 scenic spots of various sizes, such as water parks, cool worlds, children's parks, yacht marinas, wonders of the world, and fishing centers. The tourism industry has developed rapidly, and for a period of time, there has been an endless stream of tourists from home and abroad. At the turn of spring and summer, whenever the sun sets in the west, the lakeside path of the new West Lake with red flowers and willows is full of citizens and tourists resting and walking.

Under Wu Mingxiong's proposal, the municipal party committee and the municipal government have clearly made two provisions: first, from the city leaders to any citizen, to enter the scenic spots invested and built by the legal person collectively, all must buy tickets, and the interests of investors must be effectively guaranteed; Second, the new West Lake is the new West Lake of the people of Pingchuan, and the 200,000 League members, youths, and many citizens of Pingchuan have contributed a total of 13 million Sundays to carry out voluntary labor, so that today's pearl of Pingchuan is here. Wu Mingxiong said categorically at the city's party and government cadres conference: "Investors belong to investors; The people's return to the people. ”

When Wu Mingxiong learned of a police car that had forcibly entered a yacht dock without buying a ticket, he immediately instructed the press to expose it, impose a fine of 10 times, and remove the policeman from the public security ranks. Wu Mingxiong immediately ordered the demolition of a 300-meter shoreline of a Beijing unit stationed in Pingchuan that had illegally closed off the shoreline of the lake in the outer lake.

During this period, the Pingchuan Power Plant was also successfully launched. With the approval of the Provincial People's Bank, 400 million yuan of bonds were successfully issued to factories, mines, enterprises and individuals in Pingchuan area. The Pingchuan Mining Bureau and the Provincial Electric Power Bureau invested 340 million yuan each, and after one year and two months of high-speed construction, the first phase of 300,000 kilowatt units was connected to the grid for power generation three months ago. It solves the problem of industrial electricity consumption in the international industrial park, and also greatly alleviates the contradiction of power shortage in urban areas.

At the same time, the main roads in the city have been renovated according to the overall plan. After the renovation, the wide roads communicate the ancient streets and alleys in the urban area, radiating to the outside and connecting the ring roads. A scientific and rational modern road network on the scale of a large city has been established.

Under such basic conditions, the buildings were miraculously "planted" one after another. The most striking thing is the rapid rise of more than 20 12-18 storey modern buildings in the International Industrial Park in the past year, the 28-storey International Building under construction in the city center, and 43 buildings of various types. After solving the three major contradictions of water, electricity and roads, the international industrial park has suddenly become a hot spot for investment, and before the second arrival of the Taisho Consortium in Japan, many domestic and foreign businessmen have taken the lead. Among the more than 20 buildings, 15 were invested and built by businessmen from Hong Kong, Taiwan, and overseas companies. The villa area, which is unheard of for the people of Pingchuan, has also appeared in the living area of the international industrial park, although it is only a dozen buildings, and it has not yet formed a scale.

According to the statistics of the relevant provincial departments, as of June 1995, the scale of investment that has been built and is under construction in Pingchuan, including water, electricity, and road infrastructure, has reached 17.5 billion yuan. Seeing this statistic, even Qian Xianghui, secretary of the provincial party committee, was taken aback. None of the leaders of other cities in the province could believe that Pingchuan, which is famous for its underdeveloped economy, could have such a strong strength. One by one, they are asking: What happened to Pingchuan? How did this mess of the past become a cornucopia? Why is the money rolling in Pingchuan? I was organized by the provincial party committee to go to Pingchuan to see it, but it turned out that the spiritual outlook of Pingchuan people had changed.

For this reason, the provincial newspaper published a series of reports under the general title of "The Mystery of Pingchuan" for 10 consecutive days.

Qian Xianghui, secretary of the provincial party committee, personally wrote an editor's note for the series of reports in the name of a commentator for this newspaper.

Qian Xianghui said in the editor's note: "The mystery of Pingchuan is also easy to solve. That is, the cadres and masses in Pingchuan have firmly grasped the historical opportunity brought about by reform and opening up, and from the members of the Pingchuan City CPC Committee to the 10 million people in Pingchuan, they have emancipated their minds, updated their concepts, and consciously realized that as cadres and masses in economically underdeveloped areas, they must have a spirit of dedication, a spirit of hard work, and a spirit of adventure. They have a sense of urgency and a sense of mission; They are not afraid to take risks, they are not afraid of what others say. Ren Er's east, west, north, and south winds will not relax in grasping the central task of economic construction. While building a new Pingchuan, they have also built up the spirit of unremitting self-improvement of a generation, which is as valuable as the achievements of construction. ”
