Chapter 973

(superior)

When it was time to use the money, Zhang Daguanren naturally thought of the Finance Director Wang Zhigang. He called Wang Zhigang to his office with a call. He called Wang Zhigang to ask him for money, because Zhang Daguanren knew the financial situation of Binhai, so he called Wang Zhigang to come to ask him to find a solution.

The joint production of street lights with Jiangcheng is progressing smoothly. The first batch of products have been produced and can be shipped to Binhai soon and enter the installation process.

After hearing Wang Zhigang report this situation, Zhang Yang was naturally relieved. He smiled and said, "You need such efficiency when doing things. Zhigang, how is your family's affairs?"

Wang Zhigang understood that he was asking Wang Xuehai, and smiled and said, "They brother and sister have met. Maybe they haven't contacted each other for too long, and they have some estrangement."

Zhang Yang heard what he meant. Obviously, Wang Xuehai and his sister were unable to let go of their past grudges. It was difficult for honest officials to settle family affairs, and Zhang Yang was not easy to ask too much about the Wang family affairs. He cut the topic into the topic. The main purpose of calling Wang Zhigang here today was to ask him to help solve the money problem.

After hearing Zhang Yang's words, Wang Zhigang frowned and whispered: "Secretary Zhang, what is the estimated investment amount of this greening plan?"

Zhang Yang said: "This greening plan is not simply greening, but an overall improvement project for the city's image. From road renovation to bridge renovation, to re-dividing the functional areas of the city, there are many aspects involved. If you want to complete it all, it will cost about 500 million yuan, and one phase of investment will require 100 million yuan."

Wang Zhigang said: "Can the city provide support?"

Zhang Yang said: "It is not easy for them to give us some supportive policies, and it is impossible for them to get money."

Wang Zhigang said: "500 million is a long-term goal. Let's not think about it for now. It is not difficult to solve the 100 million funding gap, but it may not be easy to solve this problem in the short term."

Zhang Yang said: "Yes, I'm wondering, Binhai is so good, why can't the finance department provide money?"

Wang Zhigang said: "During this period, I have also done some understanding and investigation on this matter. Some of the data learned from the Audit Bureau: Binhai's official overseas expenses reached 12 million yuan last year alone, the purchase and use of buses was 36 million yuan, and the official entertainment expenses were 39 million yuan."

Official Zhang was dumbfounded when he heard this, and couldn't help but even swearing: "Damn, so much? The little finance in Binhai is not enough to eat."

Wang Zhigang said: "If Binhai's finances improve, we must increase revenue and reduce expenditure. We can find a way to increase revenue, but reducing expenditure must start from the source. Secretary Zhang, what I should not say, the current reduction has become intercepted, and official expenditure has become a confusing account. Let me give you an example. The Finance Bureau itself bought three new cars last year, totaling 1.1 million yuan. Until now, the Toyota business car is still in the garage. It has run 500 kilometers in nine months, and it is specially equipped with two departments.

The machine, putting aside their salary, the maintenance and repair costs incurred by this car a year are 36,500 kilometers, and 36,000 yuan in maintenance funds. I don’t know how it is generated. But when I check the documents, maintenance costs, tolls, bridge costs, and gasoline costs, I really make up this number. It’s unknown how much moisture is there. The most ironic thing is that these two drivers also received a fuel-saving award last year, which means that the other drivers consume more than they do.”

Zhang Daguanren gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, the good coastal area will make these borers eat up."

Wang Zhigang said: "The country's major policies are good, but there are still many loopholes that can be dedicated in the specific implementation process. Some things are just going up and down. When one does this, others follow the example. The reality now is that it is a vicious cycle. Anyway, it is the public's money. If you are greedy in your pocket, others will say you are corruption, but I didn't put it in my pocket. I helped the public spend money. This is called business expenses. Although it is a lot of money, in fact, waste is not much worse than corruption. But because of the word "public", behavior becomes natural."

Zhang Yang said: "Since you have realized it, it is starting to be very evil."

Wang Zhigang smiled bitterly and said, "Secretary Zhang, this phenomenon is very common. Not only Binhai, but there are many more serious ones than Binhai."

Zhang Yang said: "I don't care about anything else. I'm responsible for Binhai, so I'll start from Binhai."

Wang Zhigang said: "I've finished saving money. Let's talk about open source and jointly produce energy-saving street lights with Jiangcheng. This is a kind of open source. Because of this, we can complete the lighting of the city without spending a penny. There are only a few ways to generate income from open source in cities. One is to rely on the funding of superiors. You just said that it is unlikely. The other is to rely on the city's own creativity to make money. Binhai almost thought of it. Even if there are new ways and means to make money, it is impossible to achieve such great benefits in the short term. Another point is that it is the most common way at present." Wang Zhigang paused and said: "Sell the land!"

Zhang Yang said: "The land in Binhai is probably not that attractive. After being in the economic development zone for so long, I haven't seen many businesses and businesses come to invest."

Wang Zhigang said: "Binhai Development Zone is a failure. Although I am not an expert in urban planning, I can also see the shortcomings of the development zone. Binhai has a large port like Fulong Port, but it has not fully played its due role. With the rise of Beigang New Port, the role and influence of Fulong Port are gradually decreasing. This is a very bad phenomenon. If Fulong Port, the big part of the coastal fiscal revenue, sinks, the economy of Binhai will only continue to deteriorate in the future."

Zhang Yang said: "I have also had ideas about this, including introducing foreign capital, expanding Fulong Port, making it bigger and stronger on the existing basis, and making it a first-class port in the north of Pinghai."

Wang Zhigang said: "Since the completion of Beigang New Port, the city's policies have been constantly tilting towards New Port. Now Fulong Port has no advantage compared to New Port. Even if foreign investment can be introduced smoothly and Fulong Port is built, this is not something that can be achieved in the short term."

Zhang Yang said: "I haven't finished my words yet. Beigang New Port is Secretary Xiang's political achievements project. He cannot let me win the lead. Therefore, Fulong Port can only find another way. We cannot compete with New Port in terms of scale and momentum."

Wang Zhigang picked up the teacup and drank a sip of tea. He made a proposal that made Zhang Daren's eyes shine: "Since the development zone has decided to move to the surrounding area of ​​Fulong Port, a brand new economic development zone will be formed in the future. Why not go further and apply for the establishment of a comprehensive bonded zone?"

Zhang Daguanren never thought that he would establish a bonded area in Binhai. The so-called comprehensive bonded area is a special customs supervision area with bonded port area functions in inland areas, and implemented closed management. It is currently the most open level, the most preferential policies and the most complete functions in China. It is a pilot zone and pilot zone for the national open finance, trade, investment, service, transportation and other fields. Its functions, taxation and foreign exchange policies are implemented in accordance with the relevant provisions of the "Reply of the State Council on the Establishment of Bonded Port Areas". Foreign goods enter the zone bonded

The goods are sold in the area and sold in China. Customs declaration procedures shall be handled according to the relevant regulations on import of goods and taxes shall be imposed according to the actual status of the goods; domestic goods entering the area are deemed to be exported and tax refunds shall be implemented; there shall be no value-added tax or consumption tax for goods transactions between enterprises in the bonded area. The area is mainly based on functions such as international transit, international procurement, international distribution, international re-export trade and bonded processing, supplemented by functions such as commodity service transactions, investment financing and insurance, and is supported by service functions such as legal and government affairs, import and export display, and has functions such as gathering and dispersing production factors and transferring important materials.

Wang Zhigang's proposal was utterly enlightening for Zhang Daren. It can be said that this young Finance Director has amazed Zhang Yang more than once. If the application for Binhai Free Trade Zone is successful, it is utterly adding an important weight to Binhai's abolishment of the county and city. Moreover, as long as the halo of the bonded zone is covered, under the focus of the policy, Chinese and foreign businesses will inevitably flock to it. It is difficult for Fulong Port and even the entire Binhai to become the focus of the region.

Zhang Daguan is rarely as excited as he is now. He stood up and patted Wang Zhigang's shoulder: "Okay! If this matter becomes my first merit for you!"

Wang Zhigang said: "I am a native Binhai. Of course I want to see the development of Binhai."

Zhang Yang said: "It is the worst thing to do to transfer land. As long as the application for the bonded area is successful, the land around our coast will definitely be worth every inch of land. The merchants who want to rent it may even be squeezed out."

Wang Zhigang said: "If the government wants to maximize its interests, it must strictly control the land and build a first-class modern logistics park around the port area and bonded area. If Binhai wants to be prosperous and strong, it must carry forward its own strengths and maximize our existing advantages."

After a brief excitement, Zhang Yang quickly calmed down. He thought Wang Zhigang's reassurance: "This matter cannot be mentioned to others except you know and I." Zhang Yang was worried that if this matter was spread to Beigang, it would inevitably be blocked by superiors. If a bonded area could be established, Beigang would never set up a bonded area in Binhai. This matter is of great significance and must be operated in secret.

Wang Zhigang is smart, so of course he knows what Zhang Yang is concerned about. He whispered: "It is possible to make it possible to jointly approve these departments of the General Administration of Customs, the State Administration of Taxation, and the State Council."

Official Zhang said confidently: "Prepare 10 million public expenses. I must do this in person, and I must achieve it until it is successful!"

Two chapters were updated yesterday because I was in poor writing condition. Since I couldn’t write satisfactory words, it was better to take a break and adjust. Today I thoughts were much smoother. I updated the first chapter from morning and continued to write. I didn’t rest on Sunday. This hard work is definitely worth a monthly ticket!
