As the name suggests, Yinxia City is located in the abdominal plain area of ​​the Yinkou Grand Canyon. The unique geographical environment and harsh soil climate make it extremely difficult for local economic development. The living standards of the people are low and enterprises are half dead. There has always been a saying that "wealth does not enter Yinxia."

There are three agricultural counties in the Yinkou Grand Canyon. The two counties were originally under the jurisdiction of Mianlan City at the southern end of the canyon, and the other was under the jurisdiction of Zhoudun City at the northern end of the canyon. In the mid-1980s, Shuangjiang Province launched a "learning and catching up" competition between cities and districts. At that time, the Secretary of the Mianlan Municipal Party Committee was also the deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. He felt that the two agricultural counties were seriously dragging their backs and that various economic indicators could not be compared with other urban areas. So he and the Secretary of the Zhoudun Municipal Party Committee jointly requested that the three agricultural counties in the canyon be divided, which was called: better implement the spirit of Kyoto's instructions, make full use of agricultural preferential policies, and comprehensively develop the agricultural economy of Yinkou Grand Canyon.

After the merger of the three agricultural counties and the establishment of the city, Mianlan and Zhoudun got rid of their heavy financial burden and the rankings of the whole province have improved. Yinxia City has moved to the bottom of the province since its establishment, and has been until now.

Why can't Yinxia City develop? The provincial party committee and provincial government have organized expert groups to consult and take the pulse many times, and concluded that industry has no room for expansion; agriculture has no characteristic economy; and the tertiary industry has no consumer market.

There is only one countermeasure: split Yinxia City and allocate it to Mianlan and Zhoudun!

After the news spread, Zhoudun tried his best to oppose it, and there were strong oppositions within the provincial party committee. The removal of a prefecture-level city did not have much impact on the local people. Anyway, they all claimed to be "people in the canyon", but a series of troubles such as cadre establishment, organizational structure, and financial funds were difficult to solve.

How to divide more than ten department-level and hundreds of department-level leading cadres? How to adjust the management structure of district and county levels that has been smoothly integrated? Mianlan and Zhoudun cities have increased heavy burdens, how to decompose and assess their economic indicators?

The difficult problems made the provincial party committee unable to make up their minds, and Yinxia City just went with the flow day by day. The leading cadres transferred there usually only have one requirement, and no accidents can happen! After a few years, the wife came over mediocrely and immediately transferred to another place.

Yinxia City is also a good place for the provincial party committee to punish and demote officials. A member of the Standing Committee of Xiaonan City was founded by his wife and promoted it. The Discipline Inspection Commission found out that there were no economic problems and transferred him to Yinxia. He was still a member of the Standing Committee, and his level did not change, but everyone knew that it was different.

So is there anything good about Yinxia?

Of course there is.

Yinxia residents have the lastest per capita income of Shuangjiang, more than half of the number one place Xiaonan, but the residents' happiness index is the highest in the province. Remember, it is the first in the positive number, and has won this honor for seven consecutive years.

The work rhythm and life rhythm of Yinxia, ​​which is mainly agricultural, are relatively slow. There are few professional managers on the streets of Xiaonan. At night, all the office buildings are dim and no one works overtime. Food streets, teahouses, restaurants, food stalls, etc. are extremely popular. Night markets often last until two or three o'clock in the morning.

There are more than ten lakes of all sizes and sizes distributed in the Yinkou Grand Canyon. Every weekend, the lake is filled with leisurely anglers; there are vast mountaineering troops on the mountain road; there are fully armed rock climbing enthusiasts, and the bungee jumping project that "Just Play is Heartbeat".

An expert lamented that this was a "happy life at a low level", self-sufficiency and enjoyment. A provincial leader bluntly pointed out that this was a "closed mentality of a small country and few people". The frog in the well could not see the wonderful world outside.

When Fang Sheng reported to the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department, he happened to meet Wu Yuming. Executive Vice Minister Han Qing asked the two to rest for a while and sent them to Yinxia in the afternoon.

No one suggested that, and the two of them walked to the teahouse opposite in a tacit understanding, found a secluded private room to sit down, two cups of tea, and sat opposite each other.

Wu Yuming broke the silence and said, "It seems like it's the second time I'm sitting together?"

"Last time at Kyoto Airport."

"What do you think about Yinxia?"

The questions were asked endlessly, but Fang Sheng understood the meaning of his words and thought for a moment:

“Opportunities outweigh challenges.”

Fang Sheng was as proud as a mourn, and refused to say a word. He knew Wu Yuming's strength and scheming very well, and even more understood the subtle situation of the two. Although the message from Kyoto was "harmony is the most important", Fang Sheng knew that if he had the chance to knock him down, Wu Yuming would never miss it.

On the contrary, I am not the case.

Wu Yuming knew Fang Sheng's doubts well and said, "Frankly speaking, we should be competitors. Many people from the outside world also look forward to the full martial arts of Yinxia with the mentality of watching the excitement. However, the current situation determines that we must work together. If Yinxia cannot be grasped, we will lose faces, which will provide an excuse for some people to continue to suppress. What do you think?"

Seeing the other party’s briefing, Fang Sheng said: “It’s okay to grasp the economy. As the mayor, I have no choice but to do so. This process will inevitably touch the local interest groups and some leaders’ one-acre and three-point land. This is the main difficulty facing, and the human factors are the most troublesome.”

Wu Yuming smiled and said, "It seems that you have done your homework and have some understanding of the main crux of Yinxia. I have worked in Zhoudun for many years and have occasionally contacted the leaders of Yinxia. I also heard a lot of secrets at the dinner table. The intricate relationship between local interest groups is indeed shocking. But we have three advantages, which three? First, we don't want to make money. This is the biggest advantage. As long as we keep things far away from the interests, it will be easy to deal with. If we are mixed with selfishness, we will quickly be caught by others..."

"The so-called civil officials do not love money and military officials will die, and many leading cadres are trapped in the word "greed"." Fang Sheng agreed.

"Second, we are not familiar with everyone in Yinxia, ​​and we have no scruples in promoting and punishing cadres, and we don't need to consider factional balance, etc. The common principle we must abide by; "Wu Yuming said, "Third, I am very disturbed in the Zhoudun eradicating the officialdom, and there are some news in Yinxia. You are even more notorious. Many corrupt officials are under your hands. As the saying goes, you must be afraid to open up the situation, so that you can ensure that you shout to the end."

Fang Sheng said humbly: "Personnel issues are led by the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. My main task is to focus on the economy. When all indicators are raised, cadres and the masses will have confidence in working hard when they see hope."

Wu Yuming shook his head and said, "Economic leadership is not suitable for Yinxia."

"Well... what Secretary Wu means?"

"Do you know why my ex left Yinxia? Why would your ex rather be transferred to Xiaonan as executive vice mayor than take over as secretary?"

Fang Sheng knew very little about Yinxia. On the one hand, time was rushed and there was no time to collect information. On the other hand, Yu Daoming was busy with business, and after personnel changes, he formed a group to communicate and study in mainland provinces, and had no time to give a specific introduction. Fang Sheng lamented that there were two important women around him. One was Ainya. Every time she held a new position, she would take the initiative to call and remind her; the other was Bai Ling, who used the special identities of the ten departments of the provincial department to obtain a lot of important information.

"Xiaonan is the vice-provincial level, with the highest economic output in the province. Being the executive vice-mayor is more affordable than being the mayor of Yinxia." Fang Sheng can only say that.

Wu Yuming shook his finger mysteriously and told the inside story.

Yinxia City is a major agricultural city, but finance and taxation are heavily dependent on the only provincial state-owned enterprise in the area: Guoteng Oil and Fertilizer Chemical Factory.

Guoteng has more than 6,000 workers, with an annual output value of more than 1 billion yuan, which is the financial and taxation pillar of Yinxia City. It is said that the original plan to select the site was placed in Mianlan, which was convenient for transportation. The Provincial Party Committee considered supporting the development of Yinxia and set the factory site in the Grand Canyon with a large amount of money, which greatly increased Guoteng's transportation costs. But what are the solutions? In many cases, we cannot only calculate the economic accounts, but also the political accounts.

Guoteng CEO Gao Gengyue enjoys the treatment of the official department, and his status is not as good as that of the municipal party committee secretary or mayor. To be precise, his influence in Yinxia is better than that of the municipal leaders and is called "off-staff member". His lover is Cheng Jinfang, who is a member of the municipal party committee standing committee and secretary-general of the municipal party committee.

Speaking of this, Wu Yuming deliberately stopped and looked at Fang Sheng meaningfully.

Fang Sheng said: "With her existence, what secrets does the municipal party committee have to say to Gao Gengyue? What did the provincial party committee think, why did it come up with such a strange combination?"

"It's not just this..."

In recent years, state-owned enterprises have been reorganized, and the provincial government has also adopted the principle of reorganization of provincial enterprises, namely "transferred to local areas and reasonable resettlement". The Provincial Finance and the Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission have given "weaning" in terms of financial subsidies and benefits, and at the same time, it has gradually cancelled the administrative treatment of the company's boss, and planned to go public if conditions permit, and those that do not meet the conditions may be reorganized or split into several small enterprises.

The idea is always beautiful. Provincial enterprises encounter many difficulties that were not expected in advance during actual reform, such as pension problems for retired employees, benefits for cadres and employees such as retirement and retirement, diversion of laid-off workers, and a few corporate bosses have used the reform to gain benefits, and through asset restructuring, they have brought benefits to relatives and friends, etc., and many major cases have emerged in a short time.

Xu Yuxian and Wu Yuming also encountered similar problems when they were working in Wuxiang. They were blocked in office buildings twice by thousands of workers, and they urgently dispatched special police to break through the siege.

In view of the complexity of the reform, He Shifeng adjusted his strategy in a timely manner, requiring all localities to "not implement one-size-fits-all, implement it step by step, promote it steadily, and change one after another when mature." After that, the reform wave quickly subsided, and many places had laid aside the reform plan and waited for the provincial government to have clear instructions.

The former secretary of Yinxia City and the mayor were in the process of reform.

Last year, He Shifeng heard from the leaders of the Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission that the reform was slow. No one had successfully reformed in two years. He was very annoyed and asked to launch a pilot unit as a benchmark as soon as possible. After thinking about it, he chose Guoteng Oil and Fertilizer Chemical Factory.

He Shifeng's original intention is that Guoteng is relatively small among provincial state-owned enterprises, the oil and chemical industry has a high marketization degree, and the enterprises have a certain ability to bear it. Moreover, Guoteng is located in Yinxia City, the poorest city, and even if the reform fails, it will not cause too much negative impact.
