Chapter 67: Imagination
Zhao Guodong muttered in his heart, I failed like this, but I could see the details as soon as I entered the door?
"Brother Jian, I've been there for a long time, and you're just hurting me like this?" Zhao Guodong pretended to be angry.
"Tsk, I'll harm you? I won't harm you, so do you." Zheng Jian sat on the sofa. "A few days ago, I called Xiangdong and I said that people were uncomfortable and had a fever caused by a cold. He didn't care much, so he kept a low fever. Finally, he almost got pneumonia. I reminded him that the body is important, and you must learn to combine work and rest. You have to exercise. Otherwise, if your body collapses, you can't do anything you want."
"Pneumonia? Not many adults have pneumonia, right?" Zhao Guodong laughed. "Generally speaking, children and elderly people with relatively low resistance suffer from pneumonia. Why is Brother Dong also becoming weak?"
"Who said no?" Zheng Jian patted his bloated belly, "It seems that I have to hurry up and exercise. If you come back on Saturday, how about we go to Yunluo Lake to play tennis together?"
Seeing that Zhao Guodong didn't say anything, Zheng Jian was a little surprised and raised his eyes to find that Zhao Guodong seemed to suddenly stare out the window and was a little confused, "Guodong, what's wrong with you?"
Zhao Guodong was indeed touched by a word to a specific memory deep in his memory, pneumonia?
This word seems not worth mentioning now. It is not a big deal. It is a common disease and is not an incurable disease. However, in my memory, this word once became a nightmare for the people of the whole country for a period of time. Of course, three words must be added before it, which is atypical.
It is precisely because of the intentional or unintentional cover-up of some department officials and the asymmetry of information that the atypical pneumonia (sars) rages on the land of China, which also caused the prestige of China's new government to be criticized by the international community, and also caused a tense atmosphere throughout the country during that period.
In fact, if there could be a sound and complete emergency medical system, this storm would not have had such a big impact. This is also a profound lesson from the central and local governments, which have always lacked sufficient attention to the emergency system.
Zhao Guodong can no longer recall when the Sars virus appeared. The only memory is that there will be an outbreak after the Two Sessions in 2003, and it seems that the large flow of people during the Spring Festival has also caused this highly contagious disease to spread everywhere.
Although I can't remember when sars began to appear, Zhao Guodong also vaguely knew that such cases had begun to appear one after another at least two or three months before the outbreak. However, one was that this was not discovered to be a new type of virus, and the other was that such a thing had never been encountered before, and localities did not pay enough attention to it, which made the virus rampant for a while.
It seems that this kind of case was first discovered in Guangdong Province, Zhao Guodong tried hard to recall.
"Guodong, what's going on? Are you too tired?" Zheng Jian saw that Zhao Guodong seemed to be immersed in the memories of something, and said with concern: "You kid, you should pay attention to your body and don't be too devoted. Rome was not built in one day. If you want to make it catch up with Andu in the area of Ningling in one day, how is that possible?"
Zhao Guodong shook his head and woke up from that vague memory. It was indeed too long and too messy, so that he could not accurately recall the various things that happened, and he could only have a rough memory.
"It's okay, maybe it was because the pressure was too great a while ago. You know that the leader arranged me to Ningling, which definitely didn't let me live a leisurely life. If I can't come up with something decent, I can't hand in it. I also hope to be transferred back to An a day earlier, right?" Zhao Guodong sighed and said, "So you have to honestly make some achievements to repay the leader's 'love'."
"That cannot be deviated from reality. The situation in Ningling is there. The gap between it and other areas with better conditions is obvious. It has to be done step by step." Zheng Jian also knew that Zhao Guodong was a little bit like being appointed in the face of danger. It can also be seen from the deposit and loan situation of Ningling Construction Bank. Ningling's economy is quite far away from places like Mianzhou and Huaiqing in the previous areas. Zhao Guodong is not a god, and he does not have the ability to turn stones into gold.
"Hehe, so I'm here to come to you, Brother Jian, for help?" Zhao Guodong smiled strangely.
"Okay, I know that there is nothing good for you guys to come here. I can't help you with anything beyond the principle. I will do my best to do what is within the principle." Zheng Jian glared at Zhao Guodong.
Zhao Guodong likes Zheng Jian to be so straightforward and straightforward the most. If you have any questions, you will talk about the other things first, and then talk about others later.
He showed Zheng Jian the idea of Ningling's rebuilding of the new Ningling in Jiangdong New District. Even Zheng Jian, who was somewhat prepared, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. This guy made a big move, but this big move was a little too large. Its scale was even better than his actions in Huaiqing.
"Guodong, I'm not pouring cold water on you, I'm just reminding you, can Ningling Finance afford such a big plate? The city investment company is nominally independent legal person, but it belongs to your government. If it can't stand it, your finances will come to endorse and pay the bill."
Of course, Zheng Jian also knew that since Zhao Guodong dared to propose this plan in front of him, it must have been studied by their municipal party committee and government, but he still wanted to remind the other party that this is not a joke. Such a big plan, investment is often hundreds of millions of yuan, and if infrastructure is invested in, there will be no direct benefits in a short period of time. What does the urban investment company use to repay the loan?
I'm afraid it will eventually fall on the land, but what if the land transfer is not as smooth and beautiful as expected? Then you can only bear the responsibility of Ningling Finance. If you change to cities like Jianyang in Mianzhou, the problem may not be too big, but if you change to Ningling, which has only one-third of the economic scale of Jianyang in Mianzhou, there will be considerable risks in the middle.
"Brother Jian, of course I know that this is a bit of a risk, but I think we have discussed some issues a long time ago. I think in the future, land prices will show a steady rise with the sharp rise in housing prices. Although Ningling is located in a remote location, the situation is estimated to be similar. The planned Jiangdong New Area area reaches 7.5 square kilometers, which is only separated by Wujiang River from our prosperous downtown area of Ningling. Under the premise that our city does not intend to undergo major transformation of the old city, as the city continues to develop, the city will only develop towards Jiangdong. The Wujiang Bridge will become a link to connect the two areas. Its prospects are quite good. More importantly, there is no problem of demolition and compensation in Jiangdong. This is our most favorable side."
"Guodong, you don't need to explain much to me in the specific situation. CCB will do its best to support local economic development. I think we have a professional team to study and evaluate the feasibility and risk of your Ningling City plan." Zheng Jian waved his hand with a smile, "I won't talk about this today. I don't have any arrangements at noon, right? Huashan was transferred back to the provincial branch, and I made an appointment with him. We haven't gathered together for a long time, so we just happened to sit down."
On the way back to Ningling from Andu, Zhao Guodong has been immersed in the memory inspiration that happened to trigger this morning. He almost forgot about this incident. Today, Zheng Jianyi said it, and it seemed that infinite sparks suddenly burst out.
The spring of 2003 is destined to be an extraordinary season. A new central government was formed, and SARS was raging, which shocked the whole country. Internationally, the United States attacked Iraq. Before the war, the Saddam regime, which was once regarded as a rock by some media, collapsed in a short time. In the face of Iraq, a weak Middle East power, the United States once again showed its strong muscles.
This is an extremely asymmetric war, and it is also a war that the Americans provoked for various interests that would make them pay the price. Although their achievements in the early stage would appear so gorgeous and brilliant, of course, they also gained a lot of wealth while paying the price.
On the more than four hours from Andu to Ningling, Zhao Guodong was full of thoughts. As a prophet with memories of later generations, this feeling was really deep. He was once a fanatical military enthusiast. He once thought like countless angry young people that Americans would suffer tragic failures in the Iraq War, but the reality was just glasses.
The Americans' information war and high-tech precise strikes made Saddam not even have time to shout two glorious slogans, and the various political smoke bombs before the war began made Saddam not even mentally prepared.
Wars can be launched without the agreement of the Council, and they must be stationed firmly in the form of occupying forces until the goal is achieved, and the Americans once again showed their domineering spirit.
What can these foresights make themselves do for their country?
Of course, the SAR virus will also break out, and no one can stop the Americans' actions. The destruction of the Iraqi Saddam regime is inevitable, but maybe you can do something, such as early warning to curb the spread of the SAR virus? Or can governments at all levels be prepared for various emergency responses through some methods? Let Iraqis resist for a longer period of time through some special channels, which can cause greater losses to Americans?
He could not become a prophet, otherwise he might be taken to dissect it. Zhao Guodong thought maliciously, and it is hard to say whether everything will become a reality. What happened before does not mean that it will happen in the future. A butterfly flapping its wings may lead to changes in the entire world environment.
