Chapter 47: Fighting Phoenix

The meeting started on time at 8:30 in the morning and ended until twelve noon, and then had a meal in the municipal government cafeteria, starting on time at 2:30 in the afternoon and ending at 6:00 in the afternoon.

During this period, the discipline of the meeting was extremely good. All phone calls, including the phone ringtones of the municipal party committee members, had not ringed once, and answering calls must not be on the venue. Zhao Guodong himself, usually the secretary answered the phone, and the important phone calls ended in just a few words outside the venue. He quickly returned to his seat and continued to listen to the report and recorded it carefully. This also made everyone subconsciously imitate it.

There were more than 20 reporting units, as many as nine units and districts and counties named and criticized by Zhao Guodong. Almost all of them were difficult to justify themselves under Zhao Guodong's peaceful but sharp questioning. Three were praised, and they were all happy.

Even in the past hour at noon, many directors and secretaries rushed over from the unit and discussed the afternoon report with the main leaders in order to express their meaning more accurately and appropriately when reporting. In the words of some people, this report was much more streamlined and nervous than the above-mentioned positions in the People's Congress.

Compared with the nervousness and panic of many people in the morning when reporting, the leaders who have learned the lessons in the afternoon have to be much shorter and more refined, and the problems and solutions raised are more practical and targeted. Zhao Guodong said in his final speech that if this meeting can lead to a change in the meeting style of various regions and departments, it will be considered a result.

The one-and-a-half-long enlarged meeting of the Municipal Party Committee was actually a report on the performance and the city's ideological transformation and rectification style conference. At the meeting the next morning, Zhao Guodong rarely spent half an hour explaining his views on the ideological style of the city's cadre team during the two months of taking office, and gave a work report entitled "Invigorating the spirit, changing the mind, changing the style, and Strive to realize the rise of Ningling."

The Ningling Daily published the entire article of Zhao Guodong's speech, and all counties, districts and units also carefully studied Zhao Guodong's not too long report. The report proposed that the city's total economic output, per capita income of urban residents, and per capita income of rural residents should have a goal of significantly increasing within three years.

This proposal has also caused heated discussions in various departments and units. Everyone is very concerned about what big move the new municipal party secretary who once created a economic miracle in Hualin, Xijiang and Development Zone will take to change the current economic structure of Ningling.

"Guodong, you proposed at the Standing Committee that the goal of becoming the top five in three years is a bit high?" You Lianxiang didn't know why Zhao Guodong suddenly called himself alone and took a long walk in the old city, and then went to this desolate embankment.

"It seems a bit high to enter the top five in three years, but I have also calculated it. First, this year is not included. Our government will be considered a formal change next year, right? That is to say, it means three years in 2003, 2004, 2005, which is actually three and a half years." Zhao Guodong said with a smile. It would be much easier to communicate with You Lianxiang alone, so there is no need to be a taboo.

"Are you so happy to take such a small advantage?" You Lianxiang shook her head, her face feeling even more worried. "It turns out that she didn't feel that she was not here at the government. Now that she came here, she realized the difficulty of having a weak family. She wanted money everywhere. The sentence of being stretched is really in line with my current mood."

"Sister You, don't be so pessimistic. There is still a tall person who is standing tall after the sky. At least I am tall now, right?" Zhao Guodong smiled. "If you don't have confidence in Ning Ling, you should have some confidence in me."

"Hmph, there are more than five million people in Ningling, which is not as simple as your Hualin County or Xijiang District. Huang Ling has only advanced four people after four years. To put it bluntly, they all borrowed the light you left behind. The previous few cities and cities are not very different from us. Now, Humph, Huaiqing has accumulated a lot of strength, Yongliang is at its peak, Mianzhou and Jianyang are in full swing, and even the gap between the two cities in Pennsylvania, Lanshan, which looks no longer shining, and our Ningling is not a small part."

"Pennsan's GDP was 24 billion last year, Blue Mountain was 23.5 billion, and we were 16 billion. Even if you are capable, we will grow faster in the second half of this year. We can level up to 20% throughout the year, and we will only be about 19.2 billion. Pennsan's growth rate is around 12. The gap between the GDP of the two cities and us is still more than 7 billion. In the remaining three years, we will surpass Blue Mountain Pennsan. Have you calculated how much the annual growth rate will reach? And even if we really surpass Blue Mountain Pennsan, there are still five prefectures ahead. Not to mention Jianyang Mianzhou, the gap is too big. Even if Huaiqing and Yongliang are now developing, I guess I'm afraid I will catch up with Jianyang Mianzhou in two or three years."

You Lianxiang carefully analyzed the situation for Zhao Guodong. The more she analyzed it, the more she felt unsure and frowned.

"Hehe, Sister You, you also know that I am a person who has no pressure and no motivation. If I don't put pressure on myself, how can I force everyone to work together?" Zhao Guodong nodded with a smile on his lips.

"I have also calculated that if we use common sense, let alone catch up with Huaiqing Yongliang, even if we catch up with Lanshan and Pennsylvania, it is impossible. But you also know that I have always been the same person. When I was in Hualin, how big was the gap between Hualin and Xijiang? Hualin is probably less than one-third of that of Xijiang. How big is the gap now? When I left Ningling, Hualin's GDP had reached four-fifths of Hualin. So, Sister You, these days, we are in this era of storm and changes. Everything is possible. As long as you and everyone come to help me, there is nothing impossible!"

The strong confidence revealed by Zhao Guodong made You Lianxiang feel confused for no reason. If Huang Ling was so arrogant, she would definitely be respectful on the surface and disdain in the heart. But how could Zhao Guodong's remarks make her believe unconditionally and even feel a little bit admiring and intoxicated?

You Lianxiang gently bit her tongue to make herself more awake. She is the executive vice mayor, not a star-chasing person, and maintaining the necessary calmness and rationality is the minimum.

Zhao Guodong created economic miracles in Hualin and Development Zone, and even became a star mayor in Huaiqing. However, a city and a county are completely different, and the conditions of Ningling cannot be compared with Huaiqing. It can certainly win a moment of attention when making such a bold statement at the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, but once everyone finds that the situation is not as beautiful as you described, you may encounter a trust crisis.

Three years is not long, and it takes less than three years. Two years or even by the end of next year, a discerning person can tell you a brief explanation. Even if you are the secretary of the municipal party committee, no one will openly question your authority, but your execution ability in your future work will definitely be greatly reduced, especially in the team, such subtle changes will occur.

"Guodong, of course I will do my best to help you, but do you think that even if everyone obeys your command, you can go against the will of heaven?" You Lianxiang smiled tiredly, rubbed the ends of her hair that was somewhat scattered by the wind of the river, and slightly calmed her heart: "Do you have any big plans and ideas?"

"Well, Sister You, what do you think of this area?" Zhao Guodong's eyes retracted from the wide river surface and threw himself into the desolate pebble beach.

You Lianxiang, who was extremely sensitive, immediately became alert. Zhong Yuejun and Zhu Wenkui's idea of ​​fighting Jiangdong New District was not new. In the early days, they had to deal with it coldly because of the lack of support in the city. Why? Now I feel that Zhao Guodong is coming and I am restless again?

"Guodong, is Mayor Yuejun and Lao Zhu coming again to instigate you to develop Jiangdong New District?"

"Sister You, I just took you around the city. What do you think is the situation in the old city?" Zhao Guodong did not answer You Lianxiang's question head-on.

You Lianxiang hesitated for a moment, and she was unwilling to say anything against her will.

The renovation of old cities is a problem that every city must face in the development of the development of the city, and the renovation of the old city in Ningling is facing more problems. The Lizhuang area has always been huge due to the huge compensation costs involved in relocation. Huang Ling was stranded several times while in office. After Zhao Guodong came, You Lianxiang once hoped that Zhao Guodong could strongly promote the demolition of the old city, but now it seems that Zhao Guodong seems to be inclined to accept the views of Zhong Yuejun and Zhu Wenkui.

"The old blocks in the old city are barely able to do so at present, but Guodong, you have to think clearly. If you don't renovate now, as time goes by, the government will probably have to pay a few times or even ten times higher than the current one!" You Lianxiang frowned and said, "And I guess the plan of Mayor Yuejun will not be lower than the demolition fee at all. I guess this bridge alone will not be able to get off without 200 million yuan. This is not the investment in roads and various municipal facilities if you want to develop this area!"

"Sister You, the relocation fee is not the focus of my consideration. Have you noticed that these old neighborhoods in our Ningling old city are different from the old town renovations in other cities. The old town renovations in other cities are either mainly for the renovation of urban villages, such as Andu and Jianyang, or mainly for dilapidated old house areas with disorderly renovation planning and a large number of defects in house quality, such as Mianzhou and Yongliang, but our Ningling old town is different." Zhao Guodong analyzed carefully.
