Deputy Commissioner Lin has taken up his post.
As the newly promoted "Marquis of Baili", Lin Sanqi now has absolute power over Bao'an County, and no one can do anything to him. He is even the head of the local garrison.
If this happened in the Tang Dynasty, he would be a definite "Jiedushi", the kind of person who was in charge of both military and political affairs.
So after Lin Sanqi returned to Bao'an, he held a meeting directly with the local county team.
Although Bao'an County now has a population of less than 40,000, there are still more than 300,000 registered residents, so the county's four teams are still complete.
Lin Sanqi's current administrative position is the executive deputy commissioner of Fushan District and the top leader of Bao'an County, so he naturally sits in the main seat in the conference room.
Sitting below were rows of local officials from Bao'an County, from county leaders to heads of various communes. All the county's cadres were present, totaling more than 300 people.
Lin Sanqi was sitting there and saw clearly that the local cadres in Bao'an County all looked very pale, and there was not a single fat person in the entire venue.
This dish does not just refer to malnutrition, but also to the fact that everyone has no energy. They probably see no future and are all discouraged.
This time, County Magistrate Xue was acting as a subordinate, and was giving Lin Sanqi a detailed report on the county at the meeting.
The Bao'an County in the 1960s was different from the special territories of later generations. The two districts of Pingshan and Dapeng New District, plus half of Longgang, now belong to the neighboring Huiyang County.
Including Lin Sanqi's smuggling transit station Dongpingzhou Island, which also belonged to Huiyang County at that time.
Now we are all one family. County Magistrate Xue also spoke frankly during this closed-door meeting:
"Commissioner Lin, according to incomplete statistics, the county's current population is approximately 38,000, and all of this population is currently concentrated in the county seat. There are very few people left in the communes and townships below. Don't be fooled by the fact that this person is the commune director and that person is the township clerk. In fact, they are all commanders without any troops."
The county seat of Bao'an County at that time was Xin'an Street in Bao'an District decades later. To the northwest was the later Shenzhen Airport, and to the south was the famous smuggling holy land Shenzhen Bay (Houhai Bay).
“Currently, industrial production in our county is almost zero and agricultural production is also at a standstill.
But Commissioner Lin, you also know that this kind of thing is inevitable. Not only have the inland people fled, but even the locals in Bao'an County have all fled. So now our county has nothing and is completely broke."
Lin Sanqi laughed when he heard this:
"Old Xue, what do you mean by utterly broke? At least we still have the most valuable land resources. The uninhabited villages and uninhabited communes you mentioned are exactly what I need. If there were really people here, with villages connected to each other, I would really look down on Bao'an County."
The money needed for demolition and resettlement is not a small amount.
County Magistrate Xue knew part of Lin Sanqi's plan, so he asked with some excitement:
"Commissioner Lin, you originally told us you wanted to build an industrial park. Now that you've been transferred here specifically, are you serious about it?"
Lin Sanqi then stood up and said to all the cadres in Baoan County:
"This time I volunteered to come to this impoverished Bao'an County with a purpose.
My goal is simple: to build Bao'an County into the best, largest, and most advanced industrial production base and scientific research and development center in the country, and even the world. We want to surpass Shanghai and the three northeastern provinces and become the most beautiful province in the country."
As soon as Lin Sanqi said this, all the cadres below looked at the leader as if he were a fool.
Everyone was thinking, "Is this young man, barely even fully grown, crazy? With Bao'an County in this state, how can it possibly surpass Shanghai?"
In 1962, the population of Shanghai was 10.84 million, while the total population of Bao'an County at that time was less than a fraction of Shanghai, a real fraction.
Lin Sanqi also knew that no one would believe him.
Just like in 1979, when people said they wanted to build Bao'an County into a first-tier city comparable to Shanghai, who in the country believed it at that time?
If you don’t believe it, just wait and see.
Lin Zaiqi walked to the map, clicked it and said:
"For the time being, the first five-year plan for Bao'an County that I have established is as follows. First, I will divide Bao'an County into two, with the Guangzhou-Kowloon Railway as the center line. To the west of the railway, County Magistrate Xue will be responsible for all civil affairs, and we will temporarily follow the old policies.
The area east of the railway will be designated an industrial park, and I will be responsible for its construction. Furthermore, the several thousand villagers currently living east of the railway will all be relocated west of the railway. What I want is a clean slate for eastern Bao'an County."
Any reform will affect the interests of local officials, and civil affairs work is extremely complicated.
Lin Sanqi didn't become an official just to deal with those trivial matters, so it would be better for him to just get rid of this burden.
Anyway, he is the boss and has absolute power. Anyone who disobeys him can just get out.
"Also, I want to establish a special economic zone, and I need a large number of manpower. I have already reported this to my superiors. They have directly transferred young and middle-aged people from various central ministries to support us and work with us in economic development.
Since I'm the head of Bao'an County, I won't deny Bao'an County officials a chance. Anyone willing to work with me can sign up now. I won't force anyone who wants to keep their old job.
But I must be clear: building a new city from scratch requires immense effort and hardship. Think carefully before signing up. If anyone backs out, I will expel them from Bao'an County."
As soon as Lin Sanqi finished speaking, more than 200 cadres from all levels in Bao'an County began to talk about it, and it was obvious that most people were not optimistic.
The truth is that Bao'an County has no people, no money, and no resources.
Moreover, during this era, because of its proximity to Hong Kong, it became a "land of four wars". People did not dare to develop industry and did not cultivate agriculture. In everyone's eyes, this was a dead end.
Lin Sanqi didn't think so. What he wanted was the geographical advantage of being close to Hong Kong. Because he had the successful experience of the "Circle" in later generations, he knew that this path was feasible.
Otherwise, he might as well open the industrial park in the northwest desert. Wouldn't that be safer?
Lin Sanqi didn't care about the doubts and distrust of local cadres in Bao'an County.
Now he wants to do something big in Baoan County. With Wu as his superior, he will get whatever he wants (except money).
He looked down on the local cadres in Bao'an County because he wanted to build the best factories and the best industrial parks, which naturally required high-level professional and technical talents.
The young cadres in the central government are educated, conscious, capable, and most importantly, willing to fight. These are the helpers Lin Sanqi needs.
Now he has given half of Bao'an County to local cadres, telling them to play in the mud and not disturb him.
When the entire Bao'an County develops in the future, it will be time for this group of people to be eliminated and wait for retirement. Anyway, this world no longer belongs to them.
After leaving Bao'an County, Lin Sanqi went to the Fushan District Military Sub-district for a meeting.
Unlike Bao'an County, the discipline within the military uniform system is very strict.
When Lin Sanqi walked into the venue wearing a green military uniform with two bars and four stars, accompanied by Yu, the leader of the Huadu Military Region, everyone stood up in unison and stood there solemnly.
Lin Sanqi quickly stood up and saluted.
Everyone in the conference room stood at attention and returned the greeting.
As the head of the military region, Leader Yu personally sent Lin Sanqi to the Fushan Military Sub-district. In addition to expressing his importance to him, it was also related to the infrastructure construction of the special economic zone that Lin Sanqi was developing.
"Sit down, everyone, sit down, don't be so serious."
Leader Yu waved his hand, and all the men in green military uniforms sat down in an orderly manner. The scene was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Lin Sanqi had only seen this kind of strict enforcement of orders in movies.
"I believe everyone has seen Comrade Lin Sanqi's transfer order. This is a sign of trust in Comrade Lin Sanqi from the higher-ups. We must firmly support their decision and resolutely safeguard Comrade Lin Sanqi's authority in the Fushan Military Sub-district.
From today on, everyone must unconditionally and resolutely obey any orders from Comrade Lin Sanqi. Whether you understand it or not, you must execute it. There is no room for negotiation on this point. This is my attitude.
If anyone does not understand, they can write a letter to express their opinion, or point it out to Comrade Lin Sanqi in person, but lip service and lazy governance are absolutely not allowed.
If anyone dares to disobey Lin Sanqi's orders, I tell you, Comrade Lin Sanqi has the authority to take action, and the results do not need to be reported to the military region for approval. (End of this chapter)
