Chapter 1320 City of Hundred Irons
,
Baitie City, located in the hinterland of Huangshu Province, is rich in metal minerals as the name suggests. There are more than 40 mineral production bases, iron ore, copper ore, tin ore, lead ore, silver ore, etc., with a wide variety, so it is named Baitie City.
In the 1950s, when an exploration team led by Soviet experts made a difficult journey here, hundreds of miles were deserted. Because the terrain was too steep, experienced hunters and medicinal farmers dared not go deeper, and usually only moved on the edge.
At that time, the country was subjected to collective blockade in the West, and could not buy anything and had no money to buy it. It could only work hard on its own, tighten its belt to build an economy, and the most important strategic material was mineral resources!
The state invests no matter how hard it is to mine. When the exploration report is sent to the senior management desk, all the leaders' eyes lit up and made a decision: build roads and bridges, and build a large comprehensive mineral development base in Huangshu Province!
A steady stream of people and horses drove into this barren land, with machines roaring and blasting sounds one after another. In a short time, the road was built, the railway was built, the river was silted and the waterway was smooth. Then a large number of construction materials were transported from all over the country day and night, and countless technicians and labor were put into it. There was anger in the mountains and forests, and the primitive areas that no one had been involved in for thousands of years were constantly developed and used, rows of factories, blast furnaces, dormitories...
As the base construction becomes increasingly perfect, auxiliary facilities and service institutions emerge: shops, hospitals, schools, police stations, electricity and communications guarantees, guesthouses, etc. are gradually filling the gaps, and the prototype of a city is slowly beginning.
At the beginning, Huangshu Province had a very vague positioning of it. It established a Geological and Mineral Exploration and Development Bureau in Dasu City, which is closest to it, which is specifically responsible for all affairs in the region. The core is the mineral resources that occupy an important position in the operation of the national economy.
After that, the scale of exploration and development became larger and larger, and the variety became more and more. Due to the special geographical location of the abdominal region in Huangshu Province, mineral resources not only have high content, but also have high quality, and can supply the needs of core areas of various fronts.
Correspondingly, this region has also developed rapidly in terms of economy, service industry, etc., and the entry of various industries has made it increasingly possess the structure and characteristics of a city. Various specific problems and contradictions are becoming increasingly prominent. The Geological and Mineral Exploration and Development Bureau is no longer able to control the situation by relying solely on the situation.
In the early 1980s, when the social transformation was in progress, the leaders of Huangshu Province asked Kyoto for instructions and decided to set up a separate city based on its total economic output and scale, thus leading to the backwardness of the abdomen area.
After repeated research, the name is Baitie City.
The background of the times determines that administrative regional planning still has a planned economic management model. In fact, the division between the city and county levels is still carried out according to the standards set by the Mining Bureau. The initial leadership team and cadres of Baitie City were both from the Dasu Geological and Mineral Exploration and Development Bureau, and two ideas were roughly established:
First, the Baitie City District is located in the Baitie Basin between the mountains. It is also a rare small plain with an area of dozens of square kilometers, which can accommodate enough building and urban development space.
The second is to establish several county towns centered on several major mining groups, namely Tongling County (producing copper), Yinyuan County (producing silver), Wanxi County (producing tin) and Meiyun County (producing magnesium). The city is the well-deserved iron leader - Tieye District, which is the administrative structure of one district and four counties.
As for Baitie City's urban positioning, it has been quite clear at this point, it is to take the industrialized urban road based on mineral resources!
Baitie City's economic status is like that of all the heavy industrial cities in the country - especially those in the Northeast, with a trend of "opening high and closing low". At first, it was the forefront of the Yellow Tree with its irrefutable industrial advantages and industrial added value. The bright indicators brought various halos and honors, and also won a valuable sub-provincial city quota for Baitie City. Generally speaking, only three sub-provincial cities are allocated by developed coastal provinces and individual major provinces. Mainland provinces are extremely rare. Cadres across the province are proud to be transferred here for training, which is also an important platform for promotion and reuse.
Entering the 21st century, due to many factors, the rapid development of Baitie City has slowed down: First, the industrial structure is seriously lagging behind, the product type is single, and the market share of major industrial products is declining; Second, the aging of industrial technology and equipment directly leads to low product grades, high costs, poor efficiency, and lack of core competitiveness of enterprises; Third, the ownership structure cannot keep up with the market pace, the proportion of state-owned economy is too high, there are few small and medium-sized private enterprises, and the level of division of labor and cooperation and supporting facilities is not good, making it difficult to exert the benefits of scale economies.
This formed a vicious cycle, and Baitie City has been in a slow down channel.
Later, Kyoto decided to increase the efforts to purchase mineral resources from abroad based on macro-strategic strategies and gradually compress the scale of domestic mineral mining - not to exhaust resources in our generation and leave more wealth for future generations. At the same time, the mineral products in Australia, Africa, South America and other places have good quality and relatively moderate prices. Kyoto intends to effectively balance the trade surplus between countries through bulk transactions.
This approach is extremely far-sighted at the national level, but falling into Baitie City, which relies on resource output, is like a catastrophe!
The GDP has fallen for eight consecutive years, and the city's leading cadres have been in trouble in the middle, which has been severely damaged. At this critical moment, the province has introduced a series of support policies to encourage and promote it to accelerate economic transformation. It has also made a little progress, but unexpectedly, the situation has changed suddenly, and China and the United States have begun to compete head-on in the trade field, and then expanded to almost all areas!
Huangshu Province originally walked on two legs, one by Baitie City, which relied on resources and industry, and the other by Dasu City, which relied on metallurgy and gold and silverware processing. This made it so paralyzed in the lower limbs and had no ability to walk, and its economy plummeted!
By the end of last year, Dasu City and Baitie City, which had been ranked among the top two in the province for more than ten consecutive years, became the last two. Affected by this, Huangshu Province's various economic indexes were almost halved, and they also fell directly from the first legion to the third legion, falling from the first legion to the third legion, and falling into medical insurance, social security, and social welfare all had to be coordinated and rescued by Kyoto's finance. The enterprises were dying, and the living standards of the people fell sharply, and complained, and many unsettling remarks appeared in the society.
When the leaders of Zhong Organization Department talked with Fang Sheng, three requirements were clearly put forward:
First, quickly restore the stability and unity of Baitie City, the social order must be stable, and people's livelihood issues must be solved, and we must effectively expose the "resentment" that is blocked by the people;
The second is to strengthen anti-corruption and integrity, rectify the administration of officials, effectively eliminate unhealthy practices that have existed at the Baitie City and County levels for many years, remove a group of leading cadres whom the people hate and have repeatedly warned them to not stop, give the society and the people an explanation, and standardize and optimize the civil service team;
The third is to take practical measures to revitalize the economy, deepen the reform of state-owned enterprises, accelerate enterprise transformation, stop the decline with powerful means, and take advantage of the complete industrial system of Baitie City to strive to return to Huangshu Province in three to five years!
Fang Sheng understood the subtext: Stability is an overwhelming event, and anti-corruption is also the job that Kyoto senior executives value the most. Relatively speaking, the economy, which has deteriorated to the brink of collapse, has retreated to the third place.
Therefore, Zhan Yin was sent to Baitie City as the top leader, not Chen Zhihua, Zhu Zhengyang and others.
Fang Sheng did not rush to Baitie report, nor did he rush to think about how to carry out his work. Like the last time, he delayed it on the grounds of handover, and at the same time, three arrows were fired at the same time:
Secretly sent Yu Xiaoting to sneak into Baitie for the vanguard to find out the truth and to find out the first-hand information;
Secretly dispatched Jilin from Longze City, the capital of Huangshu Province, to Baitie City to start a commercial layout. This is called the army and horses moving forward before they move their food and grass;
I secretly called the boss of Pochetfu Financial Group and said kindly that you probably already know. I will leave Runze immediately and go to Baitie to work. Baitie is mainly state-owned enterprises in the mining industry. Your financial group may not have much involvement in this regard, but I still hope to get your support.
The boss knew in his heart that the money in the account did not belong to Moxie, but clearly wrote the word "Fang Sheng". He smiled and said that we immediately arranged people to investigate and make preliminary preparations. How to participate in the construction of Baitie Local Area in the later stage will be followed by Fang Shu!
After talking at the Zhong Organization Department of Kyoto, Chen Jiao invited his friends to gather together according to Chen Jiao's idea, especially the three musketeers Zhan Yin, Wu Yuming, Fang Sheng, Wei Junsheng, Chen Zhihua, Qi Zhijian, etc. Wei Junsheng asked around and felt that the current environment was not suitable for such a style, so he temporarily cancelled it.
The big party was not done, and the fishing activities lasted for several days in groups of tea, coffee and fishing. Combined with information from Yujia, Baijia and Ran Hanzeng, we roughly sorted out the context of this "talents' advancing westward":
The background is naturally a bad situation of a cliff-like decline, which has led to signs of serious turmoil. "Good steel is used on the blade" is the original intention of Zhong Organization Department and the highest level.
There have been several turning points in the specific advancement process. For example, at the beginning, I only wanted to make some minor adjustments, but the slump economy in the central region spreads rapidly like a plague. The traditional and conservative local leading cadres were helpless in the face of complex difficulties, which prompted Kyoto to make up his mind to "exercise major surgery."
For example, the original intention was to mobilize the same level, and only achieve the results could be improved. However, on the one hand, there were many objections, and they felt that why would the cadres with outstanding achievements be sent to backward areas without promotion? Wouldn't that be disguisedly suggest that leading cadres in developed coastal areas should not be too outstanding, and it would be fine if they were mediocre? On the other hand, Fang Sheng shined in the fire to prevent the gas leakage incident, which made Zhong Organization Department difficult. At this time, old comrades, including Mr. Fu, suggested that "we should not let good cadres feel disappointed", so they simply opened the gate.
However, the highest level has considered the extent to which the gates are opened and water is released, so this round of adjustment has a very strange phenomenon:
All those who serve as secretary of the municipal party committee of the deputy provincial level are not members of the provincial party committee standing committee!
