Chapter 344 The Japanese Applaud
Zhao Qiuhua decided to have a banquet in Shangxiyuan, which caught the staff of the Municipal Party Committee Office responsible for organizing the entertainment and Shangxiyuan off guard and was in a hurry.
According to Liu Weili and Pan Shihua's opinions, the ingredients needed for the dinner, the chefs and the service staff were immediately transferred from Nanyuan and borrowed a place to hold a banquet from Shangxiyuan.
If you really want to do this, it will not be particularly beneficial to Shangxi Garden.
Although the ingredients are not prepared enough and some of them need to be seconded from Nanyuan, Chen Huai insisted on chefs and service personnel using Shangxiyuan. This itself is also a big test before the official camp and a good opportunity to improve service level. Chen Huai was not worried about whether there would be any minor mistakes.
Chen Huai helped Chen Tong decide the big principle, so he threw the rest to Liu Weili and Pan Shihua. The town government asked Li Feng to cooperate with him with all his strength, and he had to go back to accompany Zhao Qiuhua and the others.
Liu Weili and Pan Shihua were so angry that Chen Huai was not afraid of calling Zhao Qiuhua. Su Weijun and others ate two big green insects on the dish. They dared not take this risk, and they could not ask Chen Huai to stay together.
Governor Zhao Qiuhua decided to stay in Shangxiyuan for a banquet. After all, she was interested in the development of Meixi Town. Of course, Chen Huai had to accompany her in person. And the two of them, one was the deputy director of the Municipal Party Committee Office and the other was the secretary of the district party committee. In front of Governor Zhao Qiuhua and the secretary-general of the Provincial Party Committee, they could not make a single word.
Although Shangxi Garden is busy with the sudden night banquet, another advantage is that Chen Huai has a lot of time to introduce the future development plan of Meixi Town to Zhao Qiuhua, Su Weijun, Chen Baoqi and his party in more detail.
Chen Huai did not think that Zhao Qiuhua was a particularly capable person, and even believed that Zhao Qiuhua's economic level was much worse than Tian Jiageng's. However, no matter how high Tian Jiageng's level was, as the secretary of the provincial party committee, Chen Huai could not invite him to Meixi Town to ask him for more resources in person.
Although Zhao Qiuhua's level is lower, as the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and governor, even as a neutral faction, he would not have any special favors and support for Chen Huai. At this time, deepening his impression of Meixi Town will have great benefits for the future development of Meixi Town.
Sometimes, things that people below can't do without even having enough effort to do with their best efforts can be accomplished. For a person like Zhao Qiuhua, it can be accomplished without even a single look.
Similarly, Chen Huai hopes that some of the concepts he implemented in the development of Meixi Town can have some subtle influence on Zhao Qiuhua, which will also have a positive driving effect on Huaihai Province.
Li Feng is responsible for accompanying Chen Weili, Pan Shihua supervises Shangxiyuan to prepare for the banquet, Chen Huai, He Qingshe, Yuan Hongjun, Huang Xinliang and others shout aside, saying, "There is still some time, and it is impossible for Governor Zhao and the others to sit empty. I will go in now to see if I can arrange for Governor Zhao to go around the old street, Zhuyuan and Xinmei New Village before coming back. You can arrange it separately immediately..."
Provincial leaders stayed for a banquet. He Qingshe and the others were shocked, panicked and at a loss at first, but when they calmed down, they realized that this was also a good opportunity for Meixi Town.
The so-called "higher has something to do, but the lower ones are even more likely to go down". The above face is vague most of the time and needs to be figured out below.
The ranking of the top ten towns in Huaihai is ultimately a famous name created by Zhao Qiuhua.
Can Meixi Town be ranked among the top ten towns this year? Chen Huai, He Qingshe, and Yuan Hongjun are not particularly well-off, after all, Meixi Town has a poor foundation.
But if Meixi Town has achieved its development achievements, this time it has been fully affirmed by Zhao Qiuhua. When the provincial selection team came to score in the second half of the year, if they wanted to deduct Meixi's points, they would consider whether it would make Zhao Qiuhua feel unhappy.
Chen Huai said this, and he was not afraid that Zhao Qiuhua and the others would really be willing to go out for another trip. He Qingshe and the others sneaked out to prepare as if they were injected with chicken blood.
Chen Huai walked into the lounge and told Zhao Qiuhua, Su Weijun, Tan Qiping and others about his meaning.
Tan Qiping felt a little unhappy, but since he decided to stay and prepare the dinner, it would take as soon as an hour, and Zhao Qiuhua and the others could not spend an hour. Besides, whether Zhao Qiuhua would like to walk or not can be decided by him.
"Okay, let's have a walk." Zhao Qiuhua said.
The part of Shangxi Garden’s renovation is still the original yarn mill warehouse. On the east side of the warehouse, there are two yards in the late Qing Dynasty that have not been completely cleaned up, but the garden landscape has been completed, and it is Meixi Old Street through it.
Meixi Old Street was completely renovated, and investment of 100 million may not be enough. Meixi Town’s finance investment was 10 million, but the external environment was renovated, the Kushangzi River was cleaned, the stone pavement slabs were replaced, the exterior walls were painted with white ash, and several dangerous buildings were reinforced, but in fact, they were unable to do more.
Repairing the old is as old as it is several times more expensive than demolishing and rebuilding it. This money is currently unaffordable to Meixi Town.
However, among the scattered shreds, Meixi Old Town has undergone preliminary transformation and its appearance is still antique, elegant and unique. Of course, Chen Huai also reported to Zhao Qiuhua and others truthfully:
"At present, the entire street has introduced several limited commercial enterprises such as Shangxiyuan, Meiyuan Hotel, Youth Hostel, etc., and only attracted 10 million yuan in investment. It may take three to five years or even longer to complete the commercial transformation of the entire street. Since the entire street is closed to the east and west, the town government plans to set up a small square in the middle of the old street by the end of this year, building a pedestrian bridge across Zhuyuan, and connecting with Xinmeixincun Commercial Street on the south bank. Zhuyuan is also divided into east and west areas, with residential residences and western buildings in the east area, and several companies will cooperate to establish a villa-style high-end hotel. At that time, Governor Zhao and Secretary-General Su will come to Donghua again and live directly in Meixi Town..."
Chen Huai walked and went to Zhao Qiuhua, Su Weijun and others to introduce the municipal construction plan of Meixi Town in the next three to five years.
The first and second phases of Xinmei New Village have basically been fully occupied, and the third phases of the project have been delivered. At the same time, the social vegetable market has also been opened - Xincun Social Commercial Street. Although it mainly opens street shops that meet the daily needs of nearby residents, it has been uniformly planned by Zhujiang Construction, and the appearance is much cleaner and fashionable than township street shops.
Zhao Qiuhua became excited and proposed to go to Caijiaqiao Community, where the demolition households were resettled. The convoy followed and the group got into the car and went straight to the south. It took three or five minutes to arrive at Caijiaqiao Community.
The first and second phases of the centralized residential area were also completed, and nearly 2,000 villagers moved in. The community center and Caijiaqiao Kindergarten, elementary schools, and health centers also completed the construction of the first phase of the project and put it into use. Chen Huai brought Song Xiaojun, who had served as the secretary of Caijiaqiao Community for a period of time, to introduce the community construction and development plan to Zhao Qiuhua and others.
Meixi Town has nearly 30,000 households, and less than one-sixth of the urban residents. We must ensure the smooth eastward expansion of Meixi Port Industrial Park. From Meihe Highway to the east, it is planned to move out more than 10,000 farmers out within three years. Caijiaqiao Community will be responsible for resettlement of half of them.
"Huaihai Province, a better-developed provincial development zone, will only be 20 to 30 square kilometers within three years. Meixi is very ambitious," Zhao Qiuhua knew that Chen Huai was the son of Song Bingsheng, and he had no need to promote or take too much care, but he couldn't help but sigh at the overall development pattern of Meixi Town and asked, "I came along the way and saw that there were many people planting trees in the land between Xinmei New Village and Caijiaqiao Society. Don't plan to use these plots?"
Chen Huai explained:
"Although investment promotion can greatly promote employment, many farmers in Meixi Town have low literacy levels and cannot meet the basic recruitment conditions of factories, but many people are young and middle-aged people. The land has been recovered. The livelihoods of these villagers who have lost land and do not have much employment skills are very problematic. Even if the town squeezes out part of the land payment to subsidize their basic living expenses and does not provide more assistance, they will soon become the poorest group in the town - poverty is not socialism. The town government has considered developing forestry at any time and creating more employment opportunities. The current greening rate of Meixi Town is particularly low. In 1993, it was calculated that it was less than 5%. In order to improve the overall environmental level of Meixi Town, the town government plans to increase the greening rate of the town to 15% in five years. This means that in five years, the whole town will plant 16,000 acres of forest land in a timely manner. The sorting of greening forest land requires a long process, and the planning of the new agricultural area and the construction of roads must be gradually implemented. At present, the town government's approach is to clean up the land. As long as there is no specific planned use within three years, it will be regarded as a nursery land, and then plant saplings first. In this way, one can ensure that the greening rate of the town can be quickly improved; two, when these lands are planned for specific use, the saplings are more than three years old, and they can be transplanted into the sorted forest land, and they can be carried out in an orderly manner with each other; three is to create a large number of jobs to ensure that the living standards of landless farmers can also be improved with the economic development..."
"The construction funds are also entirely contributed by the town finance?" Zhao Qiuhua promoted the evaluation of the top ten towns and also had some research on the township economy. He knew that Meixi Town's finances were relatively abundant, but no matter how abundant they were, they had to do so much. It was definitely not an easy thing to squeeze out 16,000 acres of forest greening expenses in five years.
"The town squeezed out part of the money, and asked the company for some money," Chen Huai smiled, pointed at Nobuo Yamazaki, and said to Zhao Qiuhua. "When negotiating with Fuji Iron Manufacturing, we insisted on 30% of the project's land area and forced the greening cost of 120 acres. Fortunately, Fuji Iron Manufacturing expressed understanding of this. Here, I would also like to express my gratitude to Fuji Iron Manufacturing on behalf of Meixi Town..."
After signing the contract, Nobuo Yamazaki will represent Fuji Iron and serve as the general manager of the Japanese side, and will also serve as the vice chairman of the company's board of directors, responsible for leading the Japanese side's management and technical team.
The composition of the management teams of both sides of China is an important clause clearly agreed upon during the negotiation process. Whether the entire operation team can maintain stability will determine whether the entire project can be constructed and operated normally.
It is impossible that "China replaces the general manager, and the Japanese side has no feelings about it." Therefore, in order to ensure that the agreement is officially signed and the project enters the construction period normally, Tan Qiping dared not easily replace Zhou Ming, the candidate for Chinese general manager who had already agreed on.
The tea splashing incident caused Yamazaki Nobuo to have a bad impression of Chen Huai, but he had to admit that Chen Huai had excellent ability to manage local areas and manage enterprises, which was beyond his imagination.
Japanese-funded enterprises have never heard of paying greening fees when investing in other parts of China. However, Chen Huai insisted on extorting one million greening fees from the joint venture. Nobuo Yamazaki unusually thought this was a reliable thing.
It took not long for Yamazaki Nobuo to come to China, less than four months ago, but the place he traveled the most was Meixi Town.
Meixi Town is very desolate and is built very quickly, but what I admire most about Yamazaki Nobuo is that Meixi Town’s investment in greening has a firm determination that he cannot see in other parts of China - this is also something that has won the praise of other representatives.
Japan also attaches great importance to the way of nature. After economic development, it attaches great importance to environmental protection. For projects with an investment of more than 600 million yuan, Japanese representatives will not care about paying one or two million extra greening fees for local governments, but more about whether local governments and officials are reliable.
Even though Nobuo Yamazaki was very dissatisfied with Chen Huai personally, he still recognized Meixi Town's plan to build 160 million forest land within five years - especially this plan, which also contains many useful places.
Investing in the factory, the right time, place and people are different, but there is no difference.
The so-called time is related to China-Japan diplomatic relations and China's preferential economic development policies from the central government to the local government, and should be conducive to joint ventures.
The so-called terrain means that the layout of the joint venture factory should be as reasonable as possible and should be in line with the layout thinking of the advanced steel industry; in addition, the industrial supporting capabilities such as transportation, raw material supply, electricity, and water supply must be able to keep up, and the costs paid for it must be reasonable.
The so-called harmony, whether the Chinese management team can be stable, whether China can provide enough cheap technical workers, whether the local officials in the joint venture are in good faith, whether the local security management is effective, whether it can provide efficient administrative services to the joint venture, etc., are all elements that cannot be ignored.
These comprehensive factors have been repeatedly weighed and compared, and Fuji Iron Manufacturing finally decided to build the joint venture into Meixi Town.
Nobuo Yamazaki wanted to show his generous leadership style in front of his team members. He also had a very objective conversation with Zhao Qiuhua, and praised Meixi Town, which is conducive to joint venture negotiations.
Zhao Qiuhua nodded slightly. He initially planned to promote a joint venture between Fuji Iron and Provincial Steel Group, but the initiative of the joint venture was in the hands of Fuji Iron and was coming to Donghua. He could only follow the trend and could not force it. At this time, he heard from the Japanese representatives' heart-wrenching statements, and he was sure to realize that Meixi Town has extremely comparable joint venture conditions for the Provincial Steel Group.
However, Zhao Qiuhua also knew the national conditions. Meixi Town knew that it was possible to extort one million joint ventures. It was impossible to plant more than 120 acres of forest land in China. However, it can be seen that Nobuo Yamazaki did not have any gains or losses. Instead, he really admired some of the practices of Meixi Town. He smiled with Chen Baoqi and Tan Qiping, "The city should summarize the valuable experience of Meixi Town, and the province should also vigorously promote it..."
