Since Lu Zhengdong dared to announce the expressway plan at the conference, the implementation of the funds basically has an eyebrow, of course, as for how to implement it, this is still quite secret, and only a few people in the province know about it, after all, no one wants someone to come in at this time.

Lu Zhengdong once again returned to the capital, and this time he was not called back to Beijing on his own initiative -- the leaders of the State Council had to listen to the report of the social security fund and the initiator of his plan.

Lu Zhengdong is talking with Chen Huaiyi, chairman of the social security fund, the national social security fund is the central government's concentrated social security strategic reserve, mainly used to make up for the social security needs and other social security needs in the peak period of population aging in the future.

The National Council of Social Security Fund is a ministerial-level institution directly under the State Council, entrusted by the State Council to manage and operate the National Social Security Fund. According to the Interim Measures for the Investment Management of the National Social Security Fund approved by the State Council, the investment scope of the social security fund is limited to bank deposits, trading of treasury bonds and other financial instruments with good liquidity, including listed and circulating securities investment funds, stocks, corporate bonds with a credit rating of investment or above, financial bonds, etc.

According to the audit announcement issued by the Audit Office, the target index scope of the self-operated indexation investment of the social security fund is narrow, and the investment income is not good in recent years, which has also attracted the attention of the Council of the Social Security Fund, which is the main reason why the two sides can sit together.

Chen Huaiyi is a veteran former finance minister who has been deeply involved in the reform of the excessive tax system and the reform of the industrial and commercial tax system, which should be said to be the two most successful reforms in China's macroeconomic and structural reforms.

The amendment to the Constitution in '93 revised the provisions of the Constitution on the state's implementation of a planned economy to "the state implements a socialist market economy" and "the state strengthens economic legislation and improves macroeconomic regulation and control." This marked the official end of the long-standing debate on surnames, societies, and surnames. It was also from this time that the tide of economic reform in China was set off. this year. For the first time in history, the state began macroeconomic regulation and control in the true sense of the word. Successfully curbed the momentum of inflation.

However, at this time, the central government's finances were very embarrassed. Some people simply call it "the central government on the edge of the cliff". Looking back, the central government's fiscal revenue in '93 was only about 100 billion yuan. Without the economy as a foundation, there is no political authority, and the impoverished central finance is very dangerous, and the reform of the fiscal revenue system is imminent. Against this historical background, the "Decision on Several Issues Concerning the Establishment of a Socialist Market Economic System" issued by the Third Plenary Session of the 14 th CPC Central Committee put forward specific requirements for the reform of the fiscal and taxation system. That is to say, to carry out the reform of the industrial and commercial tax system and to implement the tax-sharing system.

Prior to this, as an important member of the fiscal and taxation reform team, Chen Huaiyi participated in the design of the reform of the fiscal and taxation system, as the first line of the industrial and commercial tax reform and the reform of the tax sharing system.

Abolition of product tax, consolidation of domestic corporate income tax, legislation for individual income tax, and supplementation of value-added tax with consumption tax. Among them, the most important is the abolition of product tax and the implementation of value-added tax, these two changes have completely changed the face of China's industrial and commercial tax system, created a good external environment for fair competition of enterprises, and also put a stop to the tax reduction and exemption behavior of local governments from the system.

The reform involves the distribution of interests between the central and local authorities, and the situation is very complicated, and the high-level leaders have to personally go out to do the work for the localities, and sometimes the local leaders still have misgivings. The central government named "let Chen Huaiyi explain". Chen Huaiyi, with his skillful professional knowledge, superb negotiation skills, and eloquent eloquence, finally persuaded the local party and government leaders to accept the plan of the Central Committee.

However, he was nominated as a candidate for finance minister. Some foreign media predicted that this "local bigwig", who had offended many "local bigwigs," would receive the lowest votes in history, and Chen Huaiyi's outstanding political achievements enabled him to win the appreciation of the leaders of the Central Committee and the trust of many people, and this is the reason why the foreign media's predictions were wrong.

In view of the role of the proactive fiscal policy in promoting the development of the national economy, Chen Huaiyi's fiscal revenue has increased year by year during his tenure as finance minister, and the state's fiscal revenue has increased year by year from more than 900 billion yuan when he was minister to more than 2 trillion yuan when he left office. Someone once commented that "this financial session is the most brilliant one".

And Chen Huaiyi was born in a civilian, and his requirements for life are really not high, many people see him in the office, and he has changed the image of a suit and leather shoes on TV, an ordinary blue shirt, and a more ordinary dark blue jacket, and his image is not glamorous at all.

At that time, he was already a deputy minister, and he did not have a telephone at home, and he shared the kitchen and bathroom with others. Once, the secretary of the vice premier in charge of the economy had an urgent matter to look for him at night, and after checking for a long time, he could not find his phone number.

Simple, diligent, good at learning and thinking, so he stepped down from the position of Minister of Finance and came to manage the social security fund, which is actually a retreat but not a retreat, which also fully shows that the new leadership of the State Council still attaches great importance to it.

The reason why Lu Zhengdong first found the social security fund instead of the insurance industry was mainly because he had some connections with Chen Huaiyi.

Lu Zhengdong was able to go to the position of mayor of Anxin thanks to the strong recommendation of the previous prime minister, and Chen Huaiyi was able to benefit from the position of finance minister, but such a relationship cannot represent anything after all, but at least there is a basis for sitting down and talking, and both parties can benefit if they can talk.

The two were talking, and someone on the side whispered to remind the general manager that he was coming, and Lu Zhengdong and the others hurriedly stood up.

Together with the general manager, there are also deputy general manager Han and Secretary General Qiu, which also shows that the operation of the social security fund is very cautious.

Staff members who have been in contact with the prime minister have repeatedly reported that the prime minister is "amiable and has no pretensions," and that the prime minister has a very good reputation inside and outside the party, and even his political opponents can hardly find reasons to oppose him. When shaking hands with the general manager, Lu Zhengdong also secretly sighed in his heart, fortunately, he did not have such an opponent who was very good at communication and had reached the point of perfection in hiding needles in Mianli.

"Compared to the last time we met. Comrade Zhengdong is obviously thin. It seems that there is no shortage of worries in Beihu. ”

The general manager's smile is very sensitive. It was like a spring breeze, holding Lu Zhengdong's hand and smiling.

Lu Zhengdong was also busy with a few humble words.

After shaking hands with everyone, the general manager cordially beckoned everyone to sit down, and directly began to listen to the report.

"As the people's pension money, the safety of funds is the first priority, and the two main highways in Bay Lake now do not owe bank loans. And the toll is gradually increasing at a double-digit rate, the deadline is still ten years, and as the car gradually enters the family, the number of cars increases, the rapid growth of tolls will continue, which is the biggest advantage of our pilot. ”

"Second, social security funds are mainly for long-term strategic investment, and this kind of investment or shareholding is also in line with its characteristics."

"Third, for Beihu, due to too many debts in the early stage, it wants to achieve leapfrog development of infrastructure. Funding is a big bottleneck, and for social security funds. It is also necessary to maintain and increase the value of such a stable and sustainable way, which is mutually beneficial and win-win, and at the same time, it is a promotion and supplement to economic development and construction, and the social security fund has actually played a greater role......"

After listening to the briefings of the two, the prime minister smiled slightly, glanced at Vice Premier Han on the side, and Vice Premier Han said with a smile:

"Hehe, the general manager, Huaiyi was originally in charge of the money bag, and the abacus was also very fine, calculating that this piece of value preservation and appreciation risk and small income is not bad, and Zhengdong is not a fuel-efficient lamp, the foundation of Beihu Lake is thin, and it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, so he started this idea, which is lower than the interest rate of bank loans or other financing means, and the two of them saw that they were profitable, so they hit it off......"

Vice Premier Han is a relatively strict person in public, but in private he is a very witty and humorous person, and he also cooperates with his body language while talking, which makes the prime minister smile and smile.

Lu Zhengdong could hear that Vice President Han's so-called not fuel-efficient lamps were talking about the toll collection of the repaired expressway, and that such a highway built with pure financial and social donations should not be charged strictly in theory.

But the reality is that not only such highways, but also ordinary high-grade highways or ordinary highways are still being charged, which is actually a last resort, in fact, for provinces like Beihu that have strict transportation construction debts, this is also a last resort.

However, from the meaning of Vice Premier Han's words, he was inclined to support this idea, and the prime minister in front of him, who was clear and energetic, his eyes were full of wisdom, and under his gaze, it seemed that even one of your thoughts could not escape his eyes, but it did not seem to bring any pressure to people. , which made Lu Zhengdong have to make some further explanations:

"Beihu is indeed financially difficult, if you really have to live a hard life, tighten your belt, and still get some financial funds for this kind of infrastructure, but this will indeed have a negative impact on other aspects.

The reality of Beihu is polarization, one is the unbalanced regional development, the other is the urban and rural development is extremely unbalanced, and the proportion of underdevelopment accounts for a large proportion, Beihu wants to catch up, it can not help but make a difference in this regard, this is not only a realistic choice for the development of Beihu, but also really let the people feel the changes in their lives brought by the reform and opening up, and it is also a very important livelihood measure, in the use of financial funds, Beihu in the urban and rural co-ordination is a priority guarantee.

In this regard, Beihu has also done some work and achieved some results, but to achieve the coordinated development of urban and rural areas and narrow the gap between urban and rural areas, some infrastructure still needs to be followed, and there is a saying that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, Beihu proposed to build a highway network, which is not only based on promoting economic development and promoting fiscal revenue, but also a very important part of the overall planning of urban and rural areas......"

After hearing this, the prime minister nodded, smiled slightly, and asked about the situation in various parts of Beihu and whether some problems have been alleviated now, such as the problem in Annam City, etc.

Lu Zhengdong made reports one by one.

After listening, the chief executive nodded:

"I went to Beihu two years ago, and I have some understanding of the actual situation of Beihu, and my feeling at that time was that the development was not optimistic. It can be seen from a lot of your thoughts. It is a combination of short-term and long-term. Taking into account the development and people's livelihood, you are really thinking about how to develop Beihu, and at the same time, you are also very good at uniting people, so that everyone can work together to achieve Beihu catching up, which is very rare, it seems that the central point of your will be right. Of course, don't your tail, you have to keep up the good work. ”

As he spoke, he raised his head and said to Vice Premier Han and Secretary-General Qiu and the members of the Social Security Council:

"The safety of the social security fund must be guaranteed to the greatest extent, which is the red line. Under this premise, you will come up with a supplementary opinion in this regard and discuss it at the office meeting of the State Council at that time. ”

When Lu Zhengdong heard this, he was very determined, which meant that this matter was basically settled......

Zeng Huaide got the news after the signing of the agreement between Beihu and the Social Security Fund, and Zeng Huaide couldn't help but be speechless for a long time looking at the pilot report.

In order to win a large project of a central enterprise, Zeng Huaide's province also deliberately set up a leading group, and communicated with the central enterprise, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and other departments for five years, until he really said hello. Only then did I have an eyebrow, and finally started construction of the first phase of the project this year. The project survived the toughest of times.

But then you have to continue to run, environmental review and certification, the National Development and Reform Commission, this is not an easy thing, but Lu Zhengdong obtained 16 billion funds without much effort.

16 billion!

Lu Zhengdong's move is equivalent to the introduction of a super-large project, and it is not as time-consuming and trouble-consuming as a super-large project.

Lu Zhengdong is afraid that he has been thinking about the piece of cake of the social security fund for a long time, but he will seize the opportunity and start after the Audit Office announced that the value of the social security fund is not well maintained and increased.

This is indeed a big cake, but it is too late to fight for this policy at this time, because since Beihu has won the pilot, it is estimated that the pilot will not be expanded in the short term......

Lu Zhengdong always gives him strong pressure, which is good, there is no motivation without pressure, and he will think of ways in other aspects when the two sessions are held......

Zeng Huaide felt the pressure, and there were people in Beihu who also felt the pressure.

In the office of Lu Zhengdong, the provincial capital of Beihu, Yang Qicheng took out a thick stack of materials from his briefcase and sent it to Lu Zhengdong, and said with a smile:

"Governor, look at this, this is our provincial forum, Secretary Zhou inspected two mountains and three poor mountainous areas to learn about the news of spring ploughing and production."

Lu Zhengdong didn't speak, picked up the stack of paper and flipped through it one by one, which was printed out, the first few pages were photos and text news about Secretary Zhou Shuming's visit to two mountains and three poverty-stricken mountainous areas, and the back were comments from netizens.

The first photo is a photo of Zhou Shuming shaking hands with some farmers in ragged clothes accompanied by the staff, as if no strict security measures were taken, there are many farmers around Zhou Shuming, and those simple and loyal faces and eyes with ardent hope give people such a profound feeling.

And Zhou Shuming's black casual clothes look like worthless stalls, and a pair of black leather shoes stained with mud are even more eye-catching.

Some more knowledgeable netizens bluntly said that they did not visit the poor mountainous areas during the Spring Festival, but after the holiday, which proved that Secretary Zhou is a good leader who is not good at catching up and does not like to engage in formalism.

And some netizens praised "the secretary who is close to the people, approachable, and some netizens even said, "Seeing that Secretary Zhou is so kind, it reminds me of my kind grandfather, I really hope that there will be more and more such good officials, at this moment, I burst into tears." ”

All of this, there are nearly 1,000 replies, all of which are praises for Secretary Zhou's beautiful words.

Lu Zhengdong nodded slightly and said,

"Two mountains and three pieces, how to develop is a difficult problem, and the problem of agriculture and agriculture is also a big problem in Beihu!"

Yang Qicheng glanced at Lu Zhengdong's face, and then smiled:

"Walking down there and seeing the newspaper won't solve any problems."

Lu Zhengdong just smiled faintly and said:

"Has the text about the highway land been issued? In terms of land acquisition, we must pay attention to grasping the policies, strictly implement the policy standards formulated by the province, and strictly prohibit group matters caused by land acquisition. ”

Yang Qicheng nodded, seeing that Lu Zhengdong did not respond, he naturally would not continue the previous topic.

Yang Qicheng also sighed a little, many secretaries and governors and mayors are very concerned about the exposure, and some people are even very concerned about the length of the report and the size of the article, especially when the first and second leaders are on the news of the day, this kind of calculation is even more powerful, especially now many senior leaders of the Young Zhuang faction are happy to expose in the media. And Lu Zhengdong seems to look down on these very lightly, especially for a young leader, this is not easy, and it is not something that can be summed up by a sentence of family history......

Lu Zhengdong is like this, so he naturally has his considerations.

Zhou Shuming was still very uncomfortable with the network, and he could even be said to be very resistant, but now he is also advancing with the times, and the reason for this, Lu Zhengdong naturally knows it, it is nothing more than his highway plan and the limelight of recovering such a big fund, and now the whole province is talking about this matter, which overshadowed Zhou Shuming's light for a while, but many things are just like Yang Qicheng said, and walking down below can't solve the problem, not only in these areas, but also in the matter of the highway network. Who doesn't know in their hearts that this is his credit? No one can erase this, and if you render it on this, it will be a snake to add to it...... (To be continued......)
