Volume 17, Huazhiqiao, Section 80, Do Your Own Thing
For Lu Weimin, focusing too much on things that he cannot interfere or cannot interfere is a kind of stupidity, so he called Du Chongshan and took the initiative to report to Fang Guogang, which is the limit. If you have to do other behaviors, you will pass.
Too much is worse than too much, and its side effects are even greater.
Since May, Songzhou's investment promotion activities have become increasingly dense, and each district and county have chosen their own target locations.
For example, Su Qiao aims at Shanghai, Tianjin, Chongqing and Hebei Province. These three places are important industrial bases for mechanical manufacturing and metal processing. Not only are they rich in technical reserves, but they also have many enterprises. With the development and changes of the domestic market, the Yangtze River Delta region has gradually become the main market. So many companies also hope to enter the Yangtze River Delta market, and Songzhou is a very superior foothold.
For example, Sui'an still unswervingly regards Su*zhou, Shenzhen and Shanghai as the source of its main capital and projects, especially Su*zhou and Shenzhen. The development of the electronics industry in the two places has left other regions in the country several positions, and Sui'an has also tasted the sweetness on this issue. As long as you focus on Su*zhou and Shenzhen, the main electronics industry cluster areas, you can always find companies that are suitable for you and are willing to invest in Songzhou. And lock in the trend of rising labor costs and skilled labor shortages, and Songzhou's advantages are becoming more and more prominent.
For example, after building a very advanced industrial sewage treatment plant, Lieshan has also made great efforts to attract investment in the chemical industry. Of course, the areas they are facing are Shanghai and Zhejiang Province. The advantages in this field are still quite obvious. Due to the unique high environmental protection threshold in the chemical industry, it is not easy to achieve results in investment promotion. However, the Lieshan County Party Committee and County Government have formed a dedicated and professional investment promotion team, which has almost attracted investment one by one, and has achieved considerable results.
The negotiations on the Thyssen elevator project are progressing smoothly. After a comprehensive investigation of the environment in Songzhou, Thyssen was very satisfied. Especially Songzhou has strong strength in the steel, machinery and electronics industries. In addition, Songzhou is located in the superior location of the junction of central China, Thyssen basically decided on this place in his heart after the inspection.
It turns out that there is a bit of regret for Songzhou not having a civil aviation airport, but when I learned that Songzhou Yetou Airport is undergoing a comprehensive expansion and renovation, it is expected to be officially opened in October, Thyssen really felt that it was too perfect. After all, the lack of a general civil aviation airport is still very uncomfortable for foreign-funded enterprises like them, especially when it comes to frequenting the Shanghai headquarters. If there is no flight, it will take nearly ten hours for trains or cars, which is very inconvenient. With a civil aviation route, it is simple and you can get there in more than an hour.
On May 28, ThyssenKrupp Elevator (China) Co., Ltd. officially signed a contract with Songzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone. Fang Guogang, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and executive vice governor, visited Songzhou to attend the signing ceremony. ThyssenKrupp Elevator Group will acquire 400 mu of land in Songzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone and invest 400 million yuan to establish the Songzhou Branch of ThyssenKrupp Elevator Co., Ltd. as the fourth and largest production base of the ThyssenKrupp Elevator Group in the world. This production base is expected to be completed and put into production in October 2005. It mainly produces high-speed elevators, escalators, passenger boarding bridges, and barrier-free solutions, including barrier-free elevators.
This is the first good start project that Changjiang Province has ushered in after the introduction of the national macro-control policy this year, with an investment of 400 million yuan. More importantly, this is the first time that TK Group, one of the world's top 500 companies, has entered the inland region to invest. Everything is a big deal, which is a great news for boosting the confidence of the entire Changjiang economic development.
At the same time, Songzhou Huada Steel Group is also actively negotiating with ThyssenKrupp Steel Group to jointly build a galvanized steel plate production line and a special steel project for rail transit and rail vehicles. If these two projects can be reached, it is expected that ThyssenKrupp Steel's investment in Songzhou will exceed 500 million yuan. With the Thyssen elevator project, ThyssenKrupp Group's investment in Songzhou is expected to approach 1 billion yuan.
"Secretary Lu, the treatment of this foreign-funded enterprise is different. As soon as Thyssen took action, it took only one time to complete all the approval procedures. The efficiency of the National Development and Reform Commission is amazing." Chen Qingfu accompanied Lu Weimin from the Shangri-La Hotel where Huada Steel and ThyssenKrupp negotiated on the scene, and said while getting on the car: "I have always been worried about whether our low efficiency here will make Thyssen dissatisfied. Unexpectedly, they have already understood the national conditions and started working on it. They will handle the equipment immediately. In September, the equipment will be at Songzhou Port. Fortunately, we have some ready-made factories here, otherwise we would have caught us off guard."
Because Thyssen Steel President Mr. Schultz personally went to Songzhou to personally face the radar of Huada Steel Group, Lu Weimin and Chen Qingfu both had to meet with each other in a manner. Considering that Schultz came to conduct business negotiations, he chose to meet at Shangri-La.
The Germans are also very pragmatic and do not talk about vain etiquette, so this meeting only took half an hour. After the talks, they would immediately enter the formal business negotiations, so Lu Weimin and Chen Qingfu also came and went in a hurry, and left when the etiquette came.
"Hmph, this is the national condition. Last month, Australia's Boseg Steel invested 1.7 billion yuan in Suzhou to build a new steel project. It took only 20 days to complete all the procedures and get a license in 7 days. This is efficiency. In comparison, we are all slow." Lu Weimin's tone was bitter, "Just like the project that Huada Steel and Thyssenkrupp are now talking about, with a total investment of US$200 million, and they also have to pass the National Development and Reform Commission. But if Huada Steel goes to the procedures by itself, you can't even think about it in less than a year or two. If it were Thyssenkrupp to operate, it might be a month."
"The state has many disadvantages in terms of approval time limit, and there is also such invisible discrimination, which is even more unfavorable to the economic development of our inland areas." Although Chen Qingfu was not in charge of investment promotion, as the executive vice mayor, he is mainly responsible for the economic operation. Naturally, he is also very clear about how important a good project and a good investment is for the current underdeveloped inland areas. Perhaps it is just that you drag it into daylily.
"State-owned assets, foreign capital and private capital, three different treatments. This is our national condition. If state-owned assets are not mentioned, foreign capital can surpass private capital, which is an abnormality in itself. If in the early days of reform and opening up, domestic private capital was scarce, small scale, insufficient influence, and negligible, so if you want to use super-national treatment to attract foreign capital, private capital is no longer the same as before. Just look at the assets of the rich people on the Hurun ranking list. Foreign capital is actually foreign private capital, and private capital is domestic private capital. How can you see it?
Is the same capital, one abroad, and the other, discriminates against domestic and pleases foreign countries?" Lu Weimin sighed, "The country should consider adjustments in policies based on changes in the situation, otherwise it will still open its hands to welcome foreign capital as it is now, and adopt various policy constraints on private capital. Foreign capital itself has capital advantages and operational experience advantages. When foreign capital is really inflated, it will dominate domestic industry and finance. If you think about how to weaken others, you may face proposals from abroad, so that you will be in vain."
Lu Weimin is not an unfair concern. He is very aware of the current strange phenomenon in China, and the discriminatory differential treatment of foreign-invested enterprises and private enterprises has caused private enterprises to retreat in many fields against foreign-invested and Sino-foreign joint ventures. It was not until the first decade of the 21st century that their continuous shouts and criticisms that domestic senior management gradually realized the harm and risks of this and began to abolish the super-national privileges of foreign-invested investment. But to be precise, it was too late at that time. The market share of foreign-invested and Sino-foreign joint ventures in many domestic fields has been deeply rooted. If they want to shake their position, as long as they do not make mistakes, it can be said that it is extremely difficult.
Chen Qingfu didn't expect that Lu Weimin was so vigilant and hostile to foreign-funded enterprises. He was a little surprised and stunned for a moment before saying, "Secretary Lu, you seem to be a little worried about foreign capital coming in?"
"How to say it? If foreign capital and private capital can be treated equally or even more inclined to private capital in terms of policies, I think this is reasonable. After all, private capital is our domestic capital, and foreign capital will be transferred to our own home country. Even if it is reinvested locally, it is to make more profits, and the ultimate profit will be returned to our own home country. Whether it is reproduction or consumption, private capital is also used in our own home country. Moreover, at least private capital is also its own national capital, equally
Under the conditions, it is better to become richer than to be richer than foreigners?" Lu Weimin smiled faintly: "Of course, from our perspective, we hope to take a stance of equality. I still welcome foreign capital. Projects like Thyssen Elevator will be of great benefit to improving our industrial industrial structure in Songzhou. If Thyssen Steel reaches cooperation with Wada Steel, it will also be beneficial to the improvement of Wada Steel's operational level and product structure."
