"Nothing else, I just came here to ask - is our county raised by a stepmother?!" The old comrade was very confident and asked directly as soon as he came up.
If a tiger doesn't show its power, people will think it is a sick cat.
Du Shuji was choked.
I knew you had a bad temper, but I didn't expect it to be at the level of an atomic bomb.
He nodded again, his expression the same as before, and said with an apologetic smile: "What are you talking about? Where do you even begin to understand this?"
"Where should I start? Xiao Xia, tell our leader."
Deputy County Chief Xia was a little embarrassed and tried to smooth things over: "Leader, please bear with us. We are a little anxious today, but the investment from Hong Kong businessmen really can't wait. This is the situation..."
He had just experienced this incident and reported it to his team members. He now explained the whole story very smoothly. Finally, he emphasized with grievance that the policies of several counties were different.
We just caught a Hong Kong businessman alive, and now he's running away again! "Leader, you know that our county complies with the country's policies and organizational disciplines 100%, but the different policies mean that the timid will starve to death and the bold will die of gluttony, right?"
When Deputy County Chief Xia finished speaking, there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.
Of course, he didn't dare to be as imposing as Master Fan and could only howl a few times within the scope of conditions.
As the saying goes, only the crying child gets the milk.
While talking, Deputy County Chief Xia glanced at Du Shuji carefully.
Du Shuji was silent.
He is the parent official of this city and also the parent official of several counties under the city. No matter which county makes achievements, he will be proud.
No matter which county Hong Kong businessmen invest in, Shilu City will not suffer any loss.
It was Mr. Lu who sent people to communicate with him at the beginning. He did not want to go anywhere else, but only wanted to invest in Lingzheng County.
Although he was puzzled, he did not intervene.
According to his idea, a prosperous and bustling county would always have more investment value. He didn't know what the Lu Group saw in Lingzheng County, with its poor land, scarce talent and backward economy.
It's impossible that he was attracted by Fan Shuji's stubborn and bad temper. How could that be possible?
I don’t know what good fortune Lingzheng County has.
However, the investment intentions of Hong Kong businessmen must not be missed.
These days, "earning foreign exchange" is something that local governments care about very much, and he knows this better than anyone else.
Shilu City is not like those coastal cities in the south. It has many overseas Chinese connections and is adjacent to places like Hong Kong Island and Macau Island, so it is rare to find investments holding "Hong Kong dollars".
The country has strict control over foreign exchange, and China's foreign exchange reserves total only a few billion US dollars.
The Hong Kong dollar is exchanged for Chinese currency in the form of foreign currency and cannot be circulated in the Mainland, but it is also regarded as foreign exchange.
Opportunities are hard to predict. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again. Du Shuji then contacted the county and asked them to connect as soon as possible.
He had done something good, but now he was being treated so harshly? How could he respond to this? Fortunately, Du Shuji was good at forbearance. He could face pressure and difficulties and still maintain a calm and composed appearance without revealing too much emotion.
His mind was working rapidly, and he smiled slightly, "Old secretary, please don't be anxious, it's not worth it to get yourself hurt.
This matter also has historical reasons. Those counties have had many economic development projects early on and have summed up many good solutions.
Policy is a matter of principle, and we must not violate it, but in terms of flexibility...after all, economic development is the top priority."
Secretary Fan glared at him.
Humph! He was the only one who said both good and bad things. He was really right! But what did he mean by that? He drank the slightly hot water and began to think.
Although the old secretary has a quick temper, he has been at the grassroots level for so many years and has many local methods of grassroots governance, and he is also flexible and agile in his wisdom.
Since the city leaders said today that "economic development is the top priority", there is still a way out!
It must not be a "way" that allows mistakes, but a "way" that allows flexibility.
What did he say? "Those counties developed many projects early on and have come up with many good ideas."
It seems I need to go and ask around.
If you ask directly, the leaders of those counties will definitely not say anything. Who wouldn’t keep these “secrets” to themselves and use them to develop their own county’s economy? Why should they tell him?
If asking openly doesn't work, then just try another way, just like when we did underground work back then.
Having made up his mind, Secretary Fan's expression relaxed a little.
"Okay, let's put the policy issue aside for now. I'll come back to you for help." Secretary Fan came here today and didn't plan to go back empty-handed.
They are going to ask the city for money again - Du Shuji remained silent again, but became alert in his heart.
He really doesn't want to take on this challenge.
The funds for the city were also allocated by the province, so this puts him in a difficult position.
Lingzheng County has been "living off the fat of the land" for so many years, and now that it has the opportunity to develop itself, why is it still thinking about borrowing money?
If the wealthy neighboring counties came to him to borrow money and strive for budget funds, he would certainly welcome them, because he knew that those counties could afford it and could handle it well, and money could make money.
But as for Lingzheng County...if it cannot be completed, it will be another bad debt.
Hong Kong businessmen have given them such large projects as investment, and it is time to let them stand up on their own.
"Old Secretary..." Secretary Du stretched out the last word, "The city is also short of money this year..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Mr. Fan, "I'm not asking you for money! I'm asking you for people."
VIP?
Du Shuji was confused.
The autumn wind seemed to be blowing differently from what he had imagined.
"Hong Kong businessmen have invested in a department store in the city, and we asked the person who was in contact with them to come and give some guidance to the county." Secretary Fan smiled slyly and spoke steadily.
Comrade leader, you are still a little naive when it comes to playing tricks with me.
He had participated in the revolution and knew very well that sometimes having people is more important than having money.
Millet and rifles can also defeat foreign guns and cannons.
The key is people, unite all the forces that can be united.
Since there is flexibility in Hong Kong-owned enterprises, he can find the key people and understand the ins and outs first, so he doesn't have to worry about not knowing how to use the "flexibility".
Du Shuji breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't for money, everything was negotiable.
"That's no problem, old secretary. You can connect with him today."
Secretary Du was really impressed by this old comrade. Could he please speak more clearly? Look how scared he is.
As he said this, he opened the door and called the secretary.
"Go and make arrangements for Director Huang from the Commerce Bureau to communicate with the old secretary. This is Director Huang who was in charge of the Xiangjiang Department Store project at the time. Make sure he fully cooperates with Lingzheng County and makes this Hong Kong investment project a success!"
