Volume 9, Section 80, Convincing

As soon as Sha Zhengyang spoke, Sun Shaohua and Zhou Lin were a little confused.

Metro Line 2? Monument Station? Which one is out?

Zhongzhou is indeed planning a subway, but now there is only Line 1.

Line 1 is from Jiefang Road intersection on the west gate to East Street on the east side. This section of the road is called a slightly semi-arc, with a total length of 12 kilometers. The second phase is reserved from East Street to Dayan Dam in the High-tech Zone, with a total length of 7 kilometers. The third phase of the vision is planned to be from Dayan Dam to Mihekou in Sanchuan County, with a total length of 9 kilometers, so the total factory reaches 28 kilometers.

As for Line 2, this is just a preliminary idea, and it is even just a preliminary sketch, and the specific preparation plan has not been completed.

Sun Shaohua and Zhou Lin did say this monument station, but it was just the roughest idea. At that time, it was about setting up a station at the monument, but now it was used by Sha Zhengyang as the central axis point in the city center, which is too exaggerated.

And what happened to the overhead expressway of the East Extension Line? Sun Shaohua was even more nervous.

She mentioned to Sha Zhengyang that she considered using overhead express passages to solve the traffic jams that may be faced in the future. In this way, interlacing with the under-bridge passages can avoid the formation of traffic light intersections and reduce overpasses, which can greatly alleviate traffic jams in the eastern region in the future.

But this is just a mention. Why does Sha Zhengyang feel like it has been decided and even construction is about to start soon? The east extension line is only on the agenda. If you want to use the overhead fast track method, it can indeed improve efficiency a lot, but you can imagine how big it will be and how the municipal finance will solve it.

But these seem to be nothing in Sha Zhengyang.

"The head of Jianchuan Province, Zhongzhou urban planning is in full swing. As mayor, I must know a little bit before you. However, the municipal party committee and government will report to the provincial party committee and government soon. Of course, this is just some ideas in the city, and it has also absorbed the opinions and suggestions of some relevant departments in the province. Line 2 is still being compiled, but it is expected to be completed by the end of the year. In fact, Line 3 has also started preparation, and of course it may have to wait a little longer."

Sha Zhengyang seemed very calm, "I always believed that to solve urban transportation, we must combine ground and underground transportation. Otherwise, no matter how big the urban area is, with the popularity of private cars and the development of ground roads in the future, it will become an open-air parking lot. Moreover, underground transportation must be first and there is a development margin. I don't want our citizens of Zhongzhou to enjoy the capital treatment of Beijing citizens in the future."

"Well, I heard from Mayor Shiqun, but I didn't expect you to make progress so fast." Zhou Jianchuan was really curious, "MRT Line 1, I know, we reported it the year before yesterday, and it was reported with an overall subway planning plan. It is expected that the State Council will approve it next year. However, as far as I know, the National Development and Reform Commission has some views on this, thinking that we are a little ahead of the curve and financial resources of Zhongzhou City are difficult to start the construction of subways. I originally hoped that we would slow down again, for example, after 2006, the province has also done a lot of work in this regard, and even a bit of a guaranteed endorsement, and finally it was approved. Well, it may even be ahead of the subway construction in Chengdu, and even we ourselves are a little surprised."

Indeed, Zhou Jianchuan felt that he had a completely different feeling this year.

As soon as Sha Zhengyang came, he felt that all the stagnant work in Zhongzhou City was quickly revitalized.

It’s all right to attract investment and industrial cultivation. That’s what Sha Zhengyang had when he was in Hanchuan. Then there were a series of work style rectification, quality improvement, and environment creation. This is reasonable. If you want to develop the economy, you must have this support.

Now Sha Zhengyang has begun to make efforts in urban planning development, and the highlights and new tricks are one after another, which really makes Zhou Jianchuan feel overwhelmed.

Sha Zhengyang smiled. He knew that this was the result of several efforts, including that he had visited the capital specially. The two main leaders of the province attached great importance to this. At the same time, they also realized the importance of subway construction in expanding the provincial capital and building Zhongzhou into the center of the province, so they spared no effort to coordinate and work hard.

"But this Line 2, well, your plan is really so fast and efficient? There is Line 3, which seems to be only in a long-term plan, right?" Zhou Jianchuan was still a little suspicious.

"Master Jianchuan Province, why don't you trust people?" Sha Zhengyang laughed secretly, but on the surface he was righteous. "I am a party cadre after all, how could I speak nonsense? Otherwise, I will report to you the overall plan of Line 2 next month. Line 3 will probably go next year. After all, this has to be scientific and you can't just slap your head, right? It also needs to be rigorously designed and demonstrated, right?"

Line 2 does have a draft, but if you want to make specific details and arguments, it is definitely not something that can be found in one month. However, even if the argument is about starting construction, it will be at least one or two years later, or even three or four years later. So Sha Zhengyang is not afraid at all. Now he has brought the plan to report it, and it is normal that he needs to fine-tune it in the future, right? Whoever says that the plan cannot be changed, and you must seek practical things? It is normal for unreasonable and those who encounter practical difficulties must be corrected.

"Well, then I believe you, but even if you want to start construction, don't even think about it before 2006. Line 1 alone can drag your city's finances to the point of being breathless. What's wrong with your east extension line? I just heard this word and knew that it was not something that can be defeated by several hundred million. When are you planning to build it? Why do you fool other universities?" Zhou Jianchuan thought about it, but did not continue to get involved in this issue, and instead asked about the overhead expressway.

"I considered the idea of ​​an overhead fast track when I came to Zhongzhou, because at that time I thought that the university town should not be too close to the current main urban area in the future. Why? Because the first university town is large in scale and rich in resources, it can be said that this is a treasure, a treasure pot and a speed increaser that continuously uses resources. If placed on the edge of the city, it would be too wasteful. Appropriately distanced from the urban area, the planning of the university town can be more ease, the development around the university town can be greater space, and the area between the university town and the main urban area can gain more development advantages, which can be regarded as a killer."

Sha Zhengyang didn't hide anything, "But colleges are not stupid. If you bring them to a distant place, they also have to consider the convenience of work and life, right? The core problem is that transportation is convenient, life is livable, and life is livable, and life is livable. How can we achieve convenient transportation? So I consider using this fast channel to achieve it. You have also noticed how strong the rise of private cars in China is now. I believe that in three to five years, that is, after the university town is fully completed, private cars may no longer be a problem for university teachers. As long as the transportation problem is solved, they may care more about their living environment. And based on my understanding of these university teachers, they should be able to see this trend,..."

"What about the students?" Zhou Jianchuan said with a smile.

"Students can solve the problem through buses, and the expressway can design a dedicated bus line, which can greatly improve the speed and efficiency of buses. Of course, the next step can also solve the problem through the subway. Of course, I guess this should be ten years later." Sha Zhengyang seemed confident.

"Zhengyang, it seems that you are really scheming and have taken into account all the problems. It seems that the province does not agree or support this plan." Zhou Jianchuan naturally understood that the purpose of Zhongzhou's arrangement is to develop high-end real estate in Dongxi Wetland and solve the infrastructure investment fund gap facing Zhongzhou City through land transfer fees.

This is actually similar in various places. Facing the acceleration of urbanization and the booming development of real estate, this area of ​​income is becoming increasingly the pillar of a city's finances. Zhou Jianchuan himself is a little worried, but Sha Zhengyang had talked to him about the pros and cons of land income before. He believed that Sha Zhengyang could see this issue more clearly and deeply than many leaders, so he was not very worried about Zhongzhou, and even worried that Sha Zhengyang deliberately suppressed real estate.

But now it seems that Sha Zhengyang has cleverly grasped the standard, that is, to keep the real estate industry in Zhongzhou City maintaining a rich and diverse trend, not deliberately suppressing high-end real estate, and actively and rationally develop the real estate industry serving the general public, ensuring that the housing prices in Zhongzhou City are at a low level among the same cities in the country.

Sha Zhengyang has made it clear that relatively low housing prices should be a very core competitive factor for a city. The low housing purchase and rental costs brought by it can give all aspects a clear advantage in the labor costs of starting a business and hiring.

"The provincial chief of Jianchuan Province, since the province has put forward such high requirements and goals for Zhongzhou City, I also hope that Zhongzhou City can bring a locomotive pulling effect to the Central Plains urban agglomeration. If the driving role of Zhongzhou City is not strong, then the urban agglomeration urban circle will lose its core and source of power. How can it develop?" Sha Zhengyang said jokingly, "Everyone knows that Zhongzhou is far from having this driving role at present. We are still very different from Chengdu, Handu and Wuhan, which are unique in our own provinces. To catch up, in addition to our own efforts, we must rely on the strong support of the central and provincial governments."
