Chapter 163 Prelude

The long-awaited winter vacation Chen Mingluo finally approached.

The final exam results were quite ideal this time. Xiao Xiao rushed into the top three in the grade as he wished and stood at the first place for the first time. This made Xiao Mingxue feel very bright on his face, and Chen Mingluo entered the top ten in the grade without showing any signs of the grade. He stood quietly at the eighth place, shocking his glasses all over the floor.

Xiao Xiao's rapid progress itself is already shocking, and Chen Mingluo's progress is even more exaggerated. After all, when he entered the school at the beginning of this semester, he was basically ranked behind the class.

The huge achievements have made many people doubt. Could it be that a person's progress can really be so rapid?

However, there is no big surprise for those who know Chen Mingluo's details. After all, they are now a young rich man with billions, not to mention that they are developing cooperative relations with the municipal government, and are organizing a lot of major events.

In the New Year's work concept, the municipal government formally proposed the idea of ​​self-raised funds to build the Mingyang section expressway, and submitted it to the provincial government and the central government for review.

This incident immediately caused an uproar in China, and everyone's eyes were gathered in the ordinary prefecture-level city of Mingyang.

Cai Sushan was also quite surprised when she learned the news, and immediately she figured out the strangeness.

"Xiao Mingxue wants to tear down my mother's platform--" Cai Sushan said in her heart.

In order to escape from the deficit of Mingyang Grain Depot, she not only forced Wang Ciming to death, but also brought up the topic of introducing foreign investment to build highways. In addition, some people in the court made great efforts to speak for her, so she got rid of danger and broke free from this huge trouble.

Cai Sushan has been negotiating about the construction of a highway recently, but there are many difficulties. The so-called foreign investment is just a cover, and there is neither capital nor financing channels, so it is definitely not worth it.

But Cai Sushan's plan in her heart was clattering, and she understood that this was just an excuse. She just dragged on for a year or two and her own crisis was resolved. What does it have to do with her whether to repair the expressway or not?

However, she never expected that Xiao Mingxue would actually do her own expressway project in Mingyang!

The economic power of Mingyang City is quite good. Cai Sushan is naturally clear about it in Mingyang for a long time, but she absolutely does not believe that Mingyang City can complete this major project by relying on its own strength. This is definitely a bit of a dreamy meaning.

Obviously, the reason why Xiao Mingxue did this was to squeeze himself out. Cai Sushan could not be sure for a while whether Mingyang really had this kind of strength?

Could it be that such a big change has happened there after just over half a year after I left Mingyang?

Cai Sushan would never believe this matter.

Because of her own reasons, Cai Sushan has also made up for a while about the construction of highways. The so-called expressway mainly refers to a road that can adapt to the average annual traffic volume of passenger cars of more than 25,000, and is specially designed for cars to drive at highways in lanes and all control entry and exit.

The specific requirements are that highways generally need to be able to adapt to speeds of 120 kilometers per hour or higher, with smooth routes, gentle longitudinal slopes, and more than four lanes of road surfaces. Dividing belts should also be set up in the middle, using asphalt concrete or cement concrete high-level pavement, and a complete sign, marking, signal and lighting device are provided to ensure driving safety.

Another requirement is different from other highways, that is, pedestrians and non-motor vehicles are prohibited from walking on the road on highways, and three-dimensional intersections with other lines, and pedestrians cross over bridges or tunnels.

In fact, highways are an inevitable product of economic development and are also adapted to the development of industrialization and urbanization.

Cities are a gathering place for industries and population, and the number of cars growing much faster than that of rural areas. Therefore, the construction of expressways mostly starts from urban loops, radiating roads and busy sections of traffic, and gradually becomes urban traffic with expressways as the backbone.

At the same time, the development of automobile technology has also put forward objective requirements for the construction of highways.

Take the development of Mingyang City as an example. The growth rate of car ownership exceeded 300%. In addition, the serious shortage of urban transportation capacity is required, so the cooperation of highways and other infrastructure is needed. The Mingyang Municipal Government’s proposal to build highways is not a very impractical decision.

The only questionable thing is whether the Mingyang Municipal Government is really capable of solving the financing of construction funds.

Provincial Party Secretary Sang Mingda was also a little surprised by the plan proposed by Xiao Mingxue because he knew very well that Cai Sushan was currently planning to build a highway. Although there was an investment intention of the American consortium, the situation was still unclear. Whether this matter could be negotiated is still between the two.

With this comparison, Sang Mingda felt a little hesitant about Mingyang City's proposal to build the Mingyang section expressway by self-raised funds. Didn't they really burn their heads?

If you don’t have the confidence to do anything that the whole province may not be able to do, you just want to do it in a small prefecture-level city?

But some people don’t think so. A vice premier of the State Council felt very interested after learning about this. Not only did he express his optimism about the matter, but he also expressed his hope to get a timely report on the progress of Mingyang City in the construction of highways.

This incident made Sang Mingda feel a little scratched his head. Isn’t this causing trouble for himself?

An unnecessary thing has become a major project that must be treated well.

It would be fine if the construction work in Mingyang City did not pass the project, but once it was passed, can the provincial highway construction project not be launched? After all, it is similar to the investment in Mingyang section!

But thankfully, it is not Sang Mingda, who was in charge of this matter in the province, but Cai Sushan.

This matter is very serious. After New Year's Day, Governor Xu Xingbing came to Mingyang City for inspection.

Mingyang has made careful arrangements for this matter, and all the people have mobilized the project, surveying and mapping, investigation of relocation along the road, planning and design, and even mobilizing everyone to donate to each agency and unit.

Of course, the most powerful ones are those who run loans. None of these banks in Mingyang City can escape, and they can only get some blood when pinching their noses. The biggest highlight of this is that Mingyu Company, which was established by Chen Mingluo and Shui Rou, expanded its business scope. Through a series of complex means, it put on the guise of overseas investment institutions, convinced Francesco, and brought in 100 million US dollars of funds, which solved the main obstacles to the launch of a new project in Mingyang City.

When Governor Xu Xingbing came to Mingyang, he specially met Shui Rou and Chen Mingluo.

When he saw Chen Mingluo, Xu Xingbing was particularly surprised. Although he had heard his name before and knew that the provincial party secretary Sang Mingda had supported the water-saving faucet invented by Chen Mingluo, when the two of them sat face to face, they found that he was indeed a second-year high school student, and rumors from the outside world were true.

"I really didn't expect you to be so young, you're a little too young-" Xu Xingbing looked easy to touch and spoke more funnyly, "How did you get these results?"

The achievements Xu Xingbing refers to are naturally Chen Mingluo's inventions and assets, as well as his superhuman ideas.

"Actually, there is nothing more, it's just listening, watching, learning, and practicing." Chen Mingluo was very modest.

"Well, human society has begun to enter the information age, and technology entrepreneurship is gradually becoming possible. The future is the world of you young people-" Xu Xingbing seemed a little moved when talking about this topic.

Chen Mingluo did not respond. In fact, he probably understood a little. Many leading cadres during this period actually failed to meet the standards in their positions.

But this is also impossible. The qualifications to meet the standards are not enough. In this era of seniority, it is not a good thing to stand out in a group of black cats. In the group of white cats, people will always be bitten to death by everyone, and people cannot avoid the vulgarity.

Relatively speaking, some leaders who are diligent in learning are rare and valuable.

Whether it is Sang Mingda or Xu Xingbing, these two people are both learning cadres. Chen Mingluo also admires them when he sees them. After all, he is still studying at this age, which is indeed worth learning.

The issue that Xu Xingbing is most concerned about is the topic of investing 100 million US dollars. After learning from Chen Mingluo that this is the gambling condition between Chen Mingluo and the Spaniard, Xu Xingbing became more interested in Chen Mingluo.

"I really didn't expect that the Yangtze River will push the old waves--" Xu Xingbing held Chen Mingluo's hand and said, "There are few people playing this kind of capital game in China. One is a matter of courage, and the other is a matter of vision. I hope you will win in two years."

Xu Xingbing knew in his heart that if Chen Mingluo won this bet, then another classic case would be added to the operation of the domestic capital market, and even if Chen Mingluo lost, the province and the city would still not suffer any losses.

It can be seen that this young man is meticulous and familiar with the means in the international capital market. Since he can all get funds from foreigners to develop, his development potential is really limitless.

After Xu Xingbing understood the situation in Mingyang, he felt a clear idea. Therefore, after returning to the provincial capital, he expressed his agreement with Mingyang City's proposal to build the Mingyang section expressway.

The governor's clear statement still has a great impact. The first thing that is uneasy about this is the vice governor Cai Sushan who was roasted on the fire. She is very depressed.
