After attending the groundbreaking ceremony of Timken Jianyang Bearing Forging Co., Ltd., Zhao Guodong inspected the development of Jianyang's industrial, accompanied by Li Jin, Secretary of the Jianyang Municipal Party Committee and Cheng Ju.

Li Jin was a cadre led by Ling Zhengyue from the Organization Department of the Central Committee. He was very young and energetic. He was only two years older than Zhao Guodong and less than forty years old. Cheng Ju was born and raised from Jianyang, at the age of 47 or 8. Last year, he was promoted from deputy secretary of the municipal party committee to mayor. Ren Weifeng also mentioned this person on the phone with Zhao Guodong, saying that Zhang Guanglan was deeply impressed by this person and once mentioned him. At that time, Cheng Ju was also the assistant to the county magistrate of Guangyang County, Jianyang City.

Jianyang is an emerging city that started with industry. It developed in the early 1990s, but after entering the new century, it encountered some twists and turns and difficulties. It seems to have recovered slightly in the past two years, but overall, the signs of recovery are still unstable, which is also the situation that the Jianyang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have been working hard to change.

Accompanied by Li Jin and Cheng Ju, Zhao Guodong inspected Anyuan Special Alloy Materials Manufacturing Co., Ltd., a military-to-civilian enterprise, mainly for the production of special alloy castings and forgings for aviation, ships and tanks. It is considered an Anyuan relatively successful military-to-civilian enterprise.

The company is not very large in scale, with only more than 2,000 formal employees, but the benefits are currently quite good, especially with the increasing demand for national defense, the demand for protective alloy carriers such as aircraft, warships, tanks, and armored vehicles has also increased sharply, causing the product demand of Anyuan Special Alloy Manufacturing Co., Ltd. to soar. The second phase expansion of the company has just been completed, and the third phase expansion plan has been reported to the National Development and Reform Commission and the original National Defense Science and Technology Commission, waiting for approval.

"At present, our company's capacity expansion pressure is huge. Our product contract has been signed in 2010. The second phase expansion project has been officially completed and put into production. However, the biggest problem that has troubled us is human resources, especially the lack of skilled workers, which has become a bottleneck that limits our company's further development of production capacity and efficiency." The general manager of Special Alloy Materials Manufacturing Co., Ltd. was introducing the development of the company.

Zhao Guodong listened carefully to the problems reported by the company's head.

In recent years, the central government has been investing in national defense continuously. According to the central government's requirements, China's weapons production must be based in China, so the central government attaches more and more importance to important domestic weapons manufacturers. Ante is an upstream material manufacturer and has successfully converted military to civilians. However, its products are mainly provided to the military, but they are only achieved through marketization in operations. Due to insufficient preparations in the early stage, Ante's production expansion is now subject to the lack of skilled workers, which cannot be met even after the second phase of production expansion. Skilled workers cannot be cultivated in one or two years. Once the third phase is completed, the gap will be even larger, which is also the most difficult problem for enterprises.

"How about it, two, the company has put forward requirements for the local party committee and government. Lao Li, Lao Cheng, Jianyang is one of the industrial bases in our province, especially in mechanical processing, which has unique advantages. We have seen the situation of Ante Company. The supply contract was signed in 2010, and the workers were busy working overtime. This is a need for national defense products, and the quality cannot be correct. Workers work overtime like this is not a long-term solution. Our local party committee and government should also solve the problems of the company."

Zhao Guodong smiled and glanced at Li Jin and Cheng Ju next to him, as well as relevant leaders of the Provincial Department of Education. "The Jianyang vocational education and training system is a bit lagging behind, and the Provincial Department of Education should also consider how to make up for the loss in this regard and learn from the development experience of other places."

"Governor Zhao, we Jianyang have realized this and are actively coordinating with the Provincial Department of Education to further expand the sources and channels for skilled workers. The Provincial Department of Education has helped us coordinate vocational education colleges in Andu, Mianzhou, Huaiqing and Ningling. We hope that they will increase targeted training and education in related fields in a targeted manner. At the same time, the city has also formulated a series of policies to encourage students from these vocational education colleges to come to our Jianyang enterprise for internships, and welcome them to work in Jianyang." Li Jin continued.

"Well, vocational education is a long-term task, especially for an industrial city. Vocational education is related to whether the industrial economy can have lasting fresh blood to make up for it. At this point, as the main leader, you must have a clear understanding." After leaving Ante Company and joining Costa, Zhao Guodong said to Li Jin and Cheng Ju: "In this regard, Jianyang can learn from Mianzhou and Huaiqing more. Jianyang is facing an opportunity for development. The machinery industry continues to be in the prosperous stage. Foreign-invested enterprises such as Timken and Kawasaki Heavy Industry have successively settled in Jianyang. This is a good thing. How to cultivate our own local machinery production enterprises and make them bigger and stronger is also a problem that local party committees and governments need to seriously consider."

This was the first time Li Jin had really come into contact with this governor. In fact, he had heard of the reputation of this legendary figure when he was still in the Organization Department of the Central Committee.

At that time, Boss Ling wanted to support Long Yinghua as a member of the Standing Committee of the Anyuan Provincial Party Committee, but was defeated by Governor Zhao. This incident left a deep impression on him, because in his impression, Boss Ling basically made plans and acted later. With the prestige accumulated in the department and the good relationship between Ministers of the sages, as long as he seemed to be going to do something, few people were unsuccessful, but that time it was firmly resisted by the Anyuan Provincial Party Committee. Of course, Ying Dongliu, the Secretary of the Anyuan Provincial Party Committee at that time, was also a rebellious figure with a round outside and square inside. The Seventeenth National Congress, which was about to be held, was probably going to join the Politburo? The people who dared to challenge Boss Ling were indeed extraordinary.

The person in front of me seemed to be a little bit polite. The relationship with Secretary Ling was neither as bad as imagined, nor was he respected Secretary Ling as most people thought. It was also a contradictory complex.

"Governor Zhao, vocational education is indeed a shortcoming point in our Jianyang. We have noticed this. The city has also held a special research meeting for research and decided to allocate a special fund to support the development of vocational education. It is estimated that the situation will improve within two to three years, but in the past two years, we still need to support from other brothers and cities." Cheng Ju saw that Li Jin seemed a little distracted, so he quickly continued the conversation.

"Well, it's great that you two main leaders can realize this. At present, the development of all parts of the province is very unbalanced, the conditions and foundation of Jianyang are very good, and Secretary Ling also has high expectations for Jianyang. He hopes that Jianyang can make a significant progress in the next two years and return to the top five in the province. I wonder if you two are confident to do it?" Zhao Guodong glanced at Li Jin and Cheng Ju with a half-smiling smile.

Zhao Guodong's words made Li Jin and Cheng Ju feel huge pressure all of a sudden.

According to the current development trend, Ningling surpasses Andu to become the first economically strong city in Anyuan this year. In the next two years, the gap between the two cities will be further widened. Although Huaiqing's steady follow-up is still not comparable to Ningling and Andu, it has already left Yongliang far behind. Due to the strong development momentum in the early stage, Yongliang has fallen in recent years, but the gap with Mianzhou, Jianyang and Pennsylvania has widened. If you want to catch up within two or three years, unless you can have a momentum like Ningling's development in the past few years, it is unlikely.

Pennsylvania has neither shown signs of rapid progress nor stagnation in recent years. It has maintained a development rate slightly higher than the average growth rate of the whole province. Therefore, the GDP gap between Mianzhou, Jianyang and Pennsylvania is only within one billion. That is to say, the growth rate of one to two percentage points or even a few percentage points can determine which of these three cities will be the fifth place. In fact, this has formed a three-to-one situation.

"Hehe, Governor, this is a difficult thing. Mayor Cheng and I are really not mentally prepared for this." Li Jin smiled awkwardly.

Mianzhou is vigorously promoting the construction of Pipaxi Technology Corridor, and this Pipaxi Technology Corridor also includes the construction of Mianzhou New City. Bei Tielin has a great appetite and clearly wants to seize the position of the fifth brother. He even hopes to catch up with Yongliang as soon as possible. The province has also given considerable support. The person in front of him is the biggest supporter of Mianzhou Pipaxi Technology Corridor. Li Jin is very clear about this. At this time, he suddenly said this. I wonder if it is considered a provocation?

"Why, I feel pressured?" Zhao Guodong asked back.

"Governor, Mianzhou is developing very fast this year. Their Pipaxi Technology Corridor actually includes the construction of Mianzhou New City, which has also attracted the attention of many investors. To be honest, we are indeed under pressure." Li Jin glanced at Cheng Ju without hiding his emotions.

"What do Jianyang thinks?" Zhao Guodong asked again: "It is a good thing to be stressed. Only when you feel pressure can you have motivation and force your Jianyang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to come up with your own ideas and plans. On this point, I suggest that Jianyang can carefully consider your advantageous industries. The provincial plans will be out soon. You can combine your advantageous industries to come up with a long-term plan that is in line with your industrial reality. This will not only meet the intentions of the province, but also reflect your characteristics, and be targeted."

Zhao Guodong has seen the development plan of Jianyang, but it has no characteristics. In Zhao Guodong's mind, a city with a distinct industrial personality, seems a little confused now.

Li Jin, the secretary of the municipal party committee, cannot say that it is not possible. At least the other party has a strong ability to control the overall situation. Cheng Ju, the mayor who grew up in the local area, seemed a little reluctant in front of him. This is somewhat different from the general situation. As the secretary of the municipal party committee, excessive intervention in government work is a common problem, but Li Jin's ability to capture the development opportunities of Jianyang and find the development route of Jianyang is obviously lacking, which directly suppresses and drags down the leadership ability of the municipal government, especially the mayor, on the development of the city. This is a problem.
