The third conference room of the provincial government is located on the second floor of the eastern building of the provincial government. It is a medium-sized conference room that is enough to accommodate more than 100 people.

The dark painted tables and chairs are arranged neatly, and the nameplate on the rostrum shines with gorgeous luster under the soft light. Pots of fresh and tender green potted plants are arranged in an orderly manner along the front end of the rostrum, revealing the vitality that makes people feel a little drowsy by the hot afternoon summer.

When Zhao Guodong arrived at the conference room, there were already about ten people in the conference room, most of which were city cadres far away from Andu.

The practice of the provincial economic work briefing analysis meeting for the second quarter was attended by mayors of various cities, the municipal planning and development committees, the municipal economic committees, and the municipal finance bureau. The meeting was also attended by relevant provincial departments and units, heads of major financial institutions, including the presidents of the four major state-owned commercial banks, as well as the main leaders of relevant central units stationed in the province and central enterprises. The heads of some large provincial enterprises should also attend.

The fourteen columns opposite the rostrum in the conference room represent the order of the fourteen prefectures and cities in the province. The two columns in the middle are Andu and Mianzhou, and the two ends are Qianzhou, Ningling, Tongcheng, Rongshan, and Huaiqing respectively rank eleventh from the right, close to Tangjiang.

Provincial departments sit on both sides, while the heads of central and provincial enterprises take seats behind the attendees in the prefecture and municipalities, drawing a corridor to the boundaries between the two sides.

Zhao Guodong sat down in his seat without looking sideways, placed his hard-shelled notebook on the table, and placed the insulated tea cup next to him casually. A waiter had already come to take off the lid of the cup for him and fill it with water. Zhao Guodong nodded politely to express his gratitude.

Zhao Guodong found that the sequence of various cities and cities in the provincial government conference room was very interesting very early.

Andu is always in the middle. It is said that Huaiqing was arranged with Andu about ten years ago, and Rongshan was placed with Andu more than ten years ago. However, time has changed. With the development of the times, Andu is always in the middle, but the nameplate around it is like a revolving lantern. In the past seven or eight years, it has almost been fixed as Mianzhou on the left, Jianyang on the right, and Lanshan and Pennsylvania on the outside, extending outward according to economic strength.

Economic strength determines the ranking order, which is not an original system in Anyuan. It is said that the neighboring Qiannan province is also sorted in this way like Anyuan Province. It is said that this will help stimulate and mobilize cadres' enthusiasm for economic development.

The status of Andu economy in the province's economy is unshakable. Whether it is Rongshan in the 1980s, Huaiqing in the early 1990s, or Mianzhou and Jianyang now, its economic strength is not enough for one-third of Andu. Therefore, no matter how the city cards on both sides change, Andu will remain firmly in the middle without exception.

"What are you thinking about when you see it so enchanted?" The voice from the side brought Zhao Guodong back to reality.

"Hehe, I didn't think about anything, just thinking about when the sign in front of us will be in the middle." Zhao Guodong turned around and said with a smile.

"Oh, you guys are quite angry, why are you still expecting Huai Qing to surpass Andu in your hands?" Wang Fumei also sat down and stretched her body comfortably. "It's better to be close to the provincial capital. I've been riding for four or five hours. You've been sitting all over. You have to go out early in the morning and have to delay this road for half a day, and you can't do anything."

"I can't even think about it, so what else can I do?" Zhao Guodong grinned, "I don't expect to surpass An, but we have to encourage ourselves secretly, right? I heard that the positions on both sides of Andu have changed a few times. Our Huaiqing location was once next to Andu seven or eight years ago, but now it is getting farther and farther away."

Huaiqing and Andu are also separated by the nameplate of the four cities of Mianzhou, Penn, Yongliang and Tangjiang. Although Huaiqing GDP will definitely surpass Tangjiang this year, it is still quite far from the other three cities, especially Mianzhou and Pennsylvania. Of course, the position order of the nameplate is not adjusted as soon as the total economic output of each city changes, but if it stabilizes in two or three years, the order of the nameplate will definitely be adjusted, which is true.

Wang Fumei sighed slightly in her heart. Although she was like a brother to Zhao Guodong, she could not suppress her jealousy towards this guy.

This guy is a little lucky, or he is too troublesome. He can jump into the mayor position in less than two years as executive vice mayor. He is already a young cadre when he is in his early forties and becomes a mayor. He didn't expect that this guy can sit in this corner at the age of thirty.

Not to mention this, from last year to this year, Huaiqing Economic and Technological Development Zone has successively introduced several major projects. Not to mention Hexun Technology, the elite technology introduced last year, Quanda Manufacturing and Renbao Electronics have entered the full construction stage, and this year, Alpine Electric and Corning optical cables are also coming. Just the two leading roles in the Japanese and American electronics industries are enough to ensure that Huaiqing has made a big splash in the province's investment promotion work this year.

When Zhao Guodong took office, he made every effort to promote the Huaiqing city's large-span construction and development plan. On the one hand, although it has attracted a lot of doubts, the same real thing is just a big move in urban construction, which brings the overall pulling effect of the entire industrial chain of the construction and building materials industry to leverage the growth rate of Huaiqing at least one percentage point.

Many people say that Huaiqing has the advantage of the right time and place, but Wang Fumei also thinks there is a certain reason, but why did the two mayors not do this before, but Zhao Guodong did it? This is probably not just as simple as the right time and place. It does not have a very far-reaching vision and extensive connections, and does not have a careful planning and operation. Wherever these are all foreign capitals who are treated as guests of honor, why should you settle down in your Huaiqing?

"Guodong, you can say this big talk. Brother Mei dare not boast about it. My requirements are not high. In this term, Brother Mei only hopes that Qianzhou can get rid of the most side position." Wang Fumei is very real. If Qianzhou wants to get rid of the most side position, it means at least the Qianzhou economy must get rid of the embarrassing position of fighting for the last place with Tongcheng, and at least you have to earn the eleventh or twelfth in the province, so that you can avoid the most side position on the left and right sides.

While the two were chatting and laughing, more and more people came in the conference room. Wang Fumei was not good at sitting in Tang Jiang's position, so she greeted Zhao Guodong, and obediently returned to his position at the edge.

......

"Overall, our province's economic operation was good in the second quarter, and the growth rate of economic development continued to remain second in the country. But everyone knows that I don't like to praise the good aspects, but always like to beat the gong and pour cold water. Everyone doesn't like to listen, but I still have to say it if I don't like to listen. Otherwise, I'm worried that some people will either forget to go out of their way, be frivolous, eager for quick success, or be short-sighted and small-sighted, so I have to remind everyone."

Almost all the mayors subconsciously laid their heads and prepared to record the comments of Governor Ying.

"Actually, the mayors who sit in the first row do not need to record my words. I think what I said is something that everyone knows. Whose butt has something dirty and ill, and who is still weak and weak, knows it better than me. I am afraid that everyone will take my words as if they are in front of me, and they will pass by as soon as they go back. So this time I will say sorry first, and I will click directly on the mayors."

Ying Dongliu's smiley words caused the mayors in the first row below to whisper. Although the mayors had calm expressions on their faces, some mayors could not hide their tension and embarrassment deep in their eyes. Perhaps they knew in advance that the governor's name and indictment had a problem with their own city.

......

"Is Mayor Cui from Yongliang? I looked at your economic data this year and it was quite impressive. The growth rate in the first half of the year remained at 17%, and in the second quarter it was as high as 19%. It is gratifying, but I would like to ask a question. The news feedback from the working group of the Provincial Environmental Protection Bureau stationed in Yongliang made me feel mixed feelings."

"The economy is developing, but the environmental damage in Yongliang is also intensifying at an unprecedented rate. I wonder what Mayor Cui thinks about this?"

"When GDP and fiscal revenue data are singing all the way, I wonder if you have noticed that the people of Yongliang are scattered with snowflakes sent to the provincial and state environmental protection administration?"

"If I were you, I would definitely be unable to sleep or eat. I don't know how you feel?"

Ying Dongliu's half-joking words made Yongliang Mayor Cui Yongan blush and white, but seeing that Ying Dongliu looked calm, the mayor of Yongliang felt a little calmed down.

......

"Have Mayor Zhao from Huaiqing City been here?" Ying Dongliu's eyes were as gentle as water, but when he fell on Zhao Guodong's face, Zhao Guodong couldn't help but make a surprise blow. I wonder what kind of "knocking and spur" this governor Ying would give him?

"Here you come." Zhao Guodong raised his hand and said that he was listening carefully.

"Huaiqing's economic data also looks quite gratifying. I don't have much achievements in your achievements. I won't talk about investment promotion and industrial added value. I just want to ask a question." Ying Dongliu smiled faintly: "Huaiqing has confirmed that Huaiqing will use urban development to drive the economy in the next few years. Secretary Ning and I agree very much. Huaiqing's municipal construction is mainly carried out through urban development and construction companies, right?"

Zhao Guodong nodded and said it was true.

"Then I would like to remind you that although urban development companies are enterprises, they are indeed directly affiliated with the city's enterprises and are also tools for the city to realize development. Using such large-scale bank loans to promote urban construction, this means that the loans are guaranteed by the municipal finance. Your urban development companies are actually equivalent to realizing local government financing needs and promoting urban construction through hidden local debt. You must have a clear understanding of this."

"I looked at your investment this year, and the loans you received from the bank are amazing. The water can carry the boat and can also overturn it. I don't want to see a Huaiqing City that is overwhelmed by hidden debts. Well, Huaiqing's work this year, so I will make this suggestion. I hope Huaiqing should consider debt appropriately to avoid causing unstable factors."
