Nowadays, Ye Ziping has indeed felt the real pressure of being a great feudal lord.
When I was in Beijing, although there were intrigues and secret attacks in the Propaganda Department, there was no direct performance pressure after all. It was very difficult to speak out about political achievements. But as long as it was run properly, glory at the political level was always relatively simple.
It's like he went to the Soviet Union with the help of his son Ye Kai. Not only was he not marginalized, but he achieved his current fame, and that's why he had the opportunity to govern Mingzhu City.
But after coming to Pearl City, Ye Ziping's first impression was similar to that of Ye Kai. The situation here was far from being as good as he imagined. Behind the superficial glitz, there were many crises. If one thing was not handled properly, Pearl City would be in danger.
It will be a wheat city on Ye Ziping's political road.
According to the report given by the city government, there has been no surplus in the fiscal year of these years.
Although it is the largest city in the country, even though it has the title of the former East Asia Financial Center, this situation makes Ye Ziping very worried. The two previous leaders of his, whether it was Comrade Jiang Cheng or Hong Zheng
Comrades are all heroic and powerful people, and their abilities cannot be said to be astonishing. But even so, the situation in Mingzhu City is still like this, which is amazing. It is really not easy to be the head of Mingzhu City.
He Tianshuang, secretary-general of the Municipal Party Committee, was opposite Ye Ziping and told him some inside stories.
"The situation in Mingzhu City in the past few years was even more unspeakable. At that time, Comrade Jiang Cheng was busy working on the vegetable basket project. The entire Mingzhu City has a population of more than 12 million. With such a large demand, the entire city can be supplied without shortage of vegetables.
, is a major political achievement, but this is indeed a popular project, and food is the first priority for the people." He Tianshuang introduced to Ye Ziping, "Comrade Hong Zheng's economic ability is unquestionable, but it is difficult to make a meal without rice. He wants to do even one
Even small things are beyond our ability. As the saying goes, a penny can stump a hero, but it is very sad to say it."
"Comrade Jiang Cheng and Comrade Hong Zheng did make a lot of efforts when they were in charge of Mingzhu." Ye Ziping said.
"Indeed." He Tianshuang, secretary-general of the Municipal Party Committee, nodded.
This is not because the two people intended to flatter the leader, but it is the truth and cannot be denied.
At that time, Comrade Hong Zheng said at the mayor's new report meeting that Mingzhu City is known as the city that never sleeps, but when he looked at it from the air, at just eight or nine o'clock, the whole city was dark, even Nanjing, a bustling commercial city
There are no night markets on the road, so he is determined to light up Nanjing Road.
At that time, many old people in Mingzhu City laughed at him for making a promise without knowing the importance of it, which would definitely end badly in the future.
"There has been no major renovation of the basic public facilities in Mingzhu City for more than 30 years. The public facilities on Nanjing Road, which were originally in the public concession, are still in use and there is no room for improvement in the power supply system. The entire Nanjing Road, except for the Hualian Commercial Building, which has been renovated and used air conditioning in the building.
, there is no spare capacity to supply air-conditioning and electricity to all other commercial department buildings. And the shops along the street have no confidence to launch night markets. There is no customer source, and they have to pay for the labor cost of opening the shop and the cost of lighting the windows. Who will pay for this money? It is so small.
This is a big thing that Comrade Hong Zheng did in Mingzhu City back then." He Tianshuang said with some emotion, "Comrade Hong Zheng does not believe in evil, so he just rebuilt the Nanjing Road Power Station to ensure power, and also paid attention to Nanjing Road.
The merchants tried to persuade them, saying that they could turn on the lights for a trial opening and light up the windows first, even if the stores were not open, the market must be cultivated, and finally the lights were turned on on Nanjing Road."
"I've heard about this too..." Ye Ziping said, "I was working in the Propaganda Department at the time. Many people criticized this and said that it was a waste of electricity, but they never thought that they wanted to become a real school.
How can a truly cosmopolitan city function in the dark?
Comrade Hong Zheng's approach has fundamentally changed everyone's ideas. Now it seems that it was indeed prescient. Today, the nightlife in Mingzhu City is much richer."
From the time when Comrade Hong Zheng reluctantly turned on the lights on Nanjing Road, to the current lighting project in the commercial streets of Mingzhu City, the night markets in the commercial streets have gradually become more prosperous. From lighting up the lights on festivals to lighting up every day, there are government subsidies behind it.
The shining lights must be supported by real money. The improvement of hardware facilities will inevitably imply the rapid upgrade of software services. This is also inevitable.
If it were not for the original lighting project, the development of the service industry in Mingzhu City would never be as fast as it is now.
Ye Ziping chatted with He Tianshuang for a long time. This person is a close confidant of Comrade Hong Zheng and has quite good abilities.
Before Ziping came to Mingzhu City, when communicating with Comrade Hong Zheng, Comrade Hong Zheng specifically mentioned He Tianshuang and expressed his affirmation of his work ability.
Of course, as the former leader of Mingzhu City, Comrade Hong Zheng's ceremonious recommendation to Ye Ziping is one thing. Whether He Tianshuang can gain Ye Ziping's approval is another matter.
He Tianshuang himself also knew what was going on, and of course he had to try his best to show his role in front of Ye Ziping. "When Comrade Hong Zheng was in office, Mingzhu City was still in trouble for food and finance, so it was committed to developing with external help.
In any matter, he must first worry about raising funds. He is not ashamed to talk about profit or business.
And he has more business acumen and a higher level. When the Volkswagen factory held a construction mobilization meeting at the construction site, Comrade Hong Zheng took a turn from the originally quite satisfactory swearing-in meeting."
"I've heard a little bit about this, but I don't know the details. You might as well tell me." Ziping was still very interested in his predecessor.
Not to mention anything else, although Comrade Hong Zheng is now a member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee like him, he is unanimously valued by the top management and believes that he will be the successor of Prime Minister Yun. According to the idea of the nine-member Standing Committee of the Central Committee
, not long after, he, the Executive Deputy Prime Minister, will definitely become a permanent member. At that time, his status will be above that of Ye Ziping, and he will become a real national leader, instead of just holding a deputy national level position like now.
.
Finding bright spots in others and then learning from them is also one of Ye Ziping's strengths.
"Haha, I remember this relatively clearly." He Tianshuang was amused when she thought of it. "At that time, Comrade Hong Zheng said to the worker brothers, you must seize the time and work hard, the sooner the factory is built, the sooner the cars will roll off the assembly line, you
Just make money one day earlier. Sooner or later our country will enter... and once it enters, it will be difficult to earn money. There are only a few good years, so you must seize the time and get rich. Come on."
"Comrade Hong Zheng's words are indeed funny." Ziping listened and smiled.
However, if you think about it carefully, it does make sense for comrades within the party to call Comrade Hong Zheng the leader who dares to tell the truth the most.
"Comrade Hong Zheng's speech is humorous, but his methods are very decisive and tough." He Tianshuang said, "In the beginning, taxi drivers were listed as the top ten most profitable industries. Drivers were better than customers. The entire taxi industry was in chaos and no one could do anything about it. He fixed the sea magic needle.
Root, as soon as he took action, Hai Qingheyan immediately became a master. Looking back now, this miracle is amazing." Zi Ziping nodded, he had also paid attention to this matter.
Regarding the means to rectify the taxi industry, Comrade Hong Zheng’s method is to make state-owned enterprises bigger and stronger, become a big banker himself, and then re-control the chaos. This approach is more in line with his consistent thinking. Now the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China
When Comrade Hong Zheng came to Beijing, he also hoped to use his thunderous methods to promote the reform of state-owned enterprises that had not yielded results for many years.
"There is a long way to go to develop Mingzhu City...Ye Ziping suddenly stood up, walked to the window, looked at the scenery outside, sighed and said, "Whether a city's hardware is advanced or not, you can't just look at the usual, you have to wait for a while.
After a heavy rainstorm, it’s time for it to return to its true form.”
Mingzhu City does have many problems that need to be solved. Just like the municipal construction of Mingzhu City, it is usually invisible, but if there is a sudden rainstorm, all problems will be exposed.
He Tianshuang listened to Ye Ziping's words, thought about it carefully, and suddenly felt that it made sense.
From Ye Ziping's words, He Tianshuang could tell that he planned to put urban construction on the agenda first. If there is no good urban environment, how can we talk about building a city?
This starting point is indeed a good one, but He Tianshuang's heart is full of doubts. You must know that until now, the blood-producing and hematopoietic cycle of urban construction in Mingzhu City has not yet been formed. To do anything, you have to ask others for money with your palms facing up.
When we are struggling to support such a large urban construction project, where will the money come from?
Although Ye Ziping is the son of Mr. Ye, he is the youngest member of the Central Political Bureau, the youngest party and state leader in the country, and the power of the old Ye family is behind him, but it is hard to make a meal without money.
If so, what else can be done?
Although the old Ye family is a political family and has considerable influence in the military, it is definitely not an economic family, and it does not have the wealth to rival the country. To promote the urban construction of Mingzhu City, the funds required will be
An unprecedented amount of heaven.
Does the young Mr. Ye have the ability to accomplish what his predecessors were unable to do?
He Tianshuang is not very optimistic about this, and even thinks that this matter cannot be completed at all, at least within ten years.
If Mingzhu City wants to develop, it will be possible to achieve this goal only if all the funds handed over to the central government are retained, coupled with special policy support and the entire country is concentrated on building it.
"This is indeed a difficult problem, but it is definitely not an unsolvable proposition." Ye Ziping walked around the room a few times, waved his hand, and said to He Tianshuang, "Since the Central Government has handed over the Pearl City into my hands,
I can't just sit around and sit around and eat nothing. If Mingzhu City wants to develop, we can't wait or rely on it. Everything must be solved by ourselves!"
After hearing this, He Tianshuang felt a chill in his heart. If he could complete this task all by himself, would there be any need to wait until today?
It seems that the young Secretary Ye has no idea how difficult this job is.
