Volume 16 Hengdao Immediately Section 59 Elements of a Charming City
"Well said!" After a deep look at Chi Feng, Lu Weimin's face was full of satisfaction, he gave a light high-five and nodded happily: "Although I also know that Director Chi said these words with profound meaning, I still
I have to say, I was impressed. Our Songzhou should have characteristics that are different from other places. Culture and sports should become the two business cards of Songzhou city. Songzhou should not only have steel, mobile phones and cotton yarn, but also have more.
Something with heritage significance.”
"Secretary Lu laughed. In fact, Songzhou already has a good foundation in literature and art. Songzhou Art College is also well-known nationwide. Although it is not as good as those major art colleges, it is at the level of an art college.
It is still very competitive. In our East China region, if many young people who want to pursue the path of literature and art cannot get into colleges such as China Theater, Shanghai Theater, Nortel, and Beiguang, Songzhou Art College is also a good choice. We
Songzhou also has a rich history and culture. If sports can also make up for it, I think Songzhou will really have the charm of a big city." Chi Feng said with a smile.
These words touched Lu Weimin's heart. He couldn't help but say that this woman was very good at talking. She seemed to have guessed his own thoughts. When he returned to Songzhou this time, economic development was certainly the top priority, but economic development was only a means.
Lu Weimin's ultimate goal is to build Songzhou into a unique and charming city.
In Lu Weimin's view, the reason why Songzhou is different from cities such as Fengzhou and Kunhu is that Songzhou's development direction is to become a big city, and it wants to develop into a big city like Changzhou, Hangzhou, Ningbo, Suzhou and Nanjing.
Even now it seems that it is still far away from these cities. Whether it is city size, urban population, industrial structure, or city status, it is very different from these cities. However, as a city with excellent geographical location and certain conditions, Songzhou
There are indeed conditions for impacting big cities.
Having said that, if Shenzhen can become an international metropolis on the basis of a small fishing village, doesn't it mean that it has seized the opportunity of reform and opening up? Lu Weimin has not dared to dream of catching up with Shenzhen, but as a reborn person, especially
Now that I am in a favorable position as secretary of the municipal party committee, if I still dare not dream about it, then it would be too bad for me to have a new life in this life.
Songzhou wants to become a charming city that is different from other cities. Lu Weimin knows very well that there are still many shortcomings here that need to be made up for step by step.
The total economic volume and per capita income are only the most basic. In fact, the people of Lu are still somewhat confident on this point. Industrial cultivation, increasing fiscal revenue, and improving people's living standards are basically connected together. As long as industrial development is carried out
Together, we can prepare to seize the golden cycle of China's economic development in recent years. Songzhou's economy is making great strides, and it is not impossible to move up a few levels.
But a charming city in the eyes of Lu Weimin is not just about economic development. Just like Shenzhen, although its economic aggregate is one of the best among sub-provincial cities, it has an irreparable shortcoming.
It is the lack of humanities and history. A city without history is even called a cultural desert. Without these baggage, although it can travel lightly, it will also be regarded as lacking historical and cultural heritage. This is also a hidden pain of a city.
Songzhou has always been a famous historical city in the south of the Yangtze River. It has a history of more than 2,200 years and has changed its name many times in history. However, after the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Songzhou's status as an important town in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River gradually became prominent, and it also became a resort for literati and poets of all ages.
The current old town of Songzhou is basically made up of old-fashioned buildings with Jiangnan charm from the Republic of China period, and there are also quite a few Soviet-style buildings after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Lu Weimin also had this consciousness when he started the urban construction of Songzhou when he was the executive deputy mayor.
Avoiding the old city of Songzhou, on the one hand, we hope to expand Songzhou city to the south and widen the urban area. On the other hand, we also intend to retain the historical buildings in the old city so that the ancient charm of Songzhou city can be intact.
Keep it.
The heritage of a city not only depends on its economic strength, but also a very critical factor lies in its cultural heritage, and this cultural heritage, at a large level, includes the entire pan-cultural field of history, architecture, culture, art, and sports.
, as Chi Feng said, Songzhou already has some advantages in the pan-cultural field, such as art, history, architecture, etc., but it is still a shortcoming in sports, and Hualong Football Club, as a city business card, is helping Songzhou
To make up for this shortcoming, how could Songzhou cut off his arm for petty profit at this time?
"Director Chi, your words made my heart surge. If I, the Secretary of the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee, failed to live up to your expectations, wouldn't it be a big disgrace?" Lu Weimin sighed and sighed: "A person who can see so far-reaching.
There really isn’t much left. I learned a lesson today. After I go back, the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and Government will seriously study this issue and consider everything to see how to solve it.”
"If that's the case, that would be great. It wouldn't be in vain for me to do my best in front of Secretary Lu today." Chi Feng said with a smile.
"Director Chi, do you have any arrangements for dinner? If not, how about having a meal together?"
Chi Feng was overjoyed when Lu Weimin sent out an invitation. This was exactly what she expected, "I have a wish, but I dare not invite you. Who can refuse Secretary Lu's kind invitation?"
After returning to Songzhou, Lu Weimin specially recruited Cao Zhenhai and Chen Qingfu to learn about the basic situation of the city's cultural and sports work.
After coming here for a month, Lu Weimin did not put much thought into this field, but this trip to Puming made Lu Weimin realize that he could not relax in this area and needed to follow up in time.
Chen Qingfu has been in charge of culture and sports, but culture and sports are under the jurisdiction of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee. This somewhat overlapping division of labor seems unscientific, but it is determined by the system. Generally speaking, the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee is mainly responsible for the direction and
There are more ideological things, while the city government is more responsible for specific administrative work.
Songzhou Art School was officially upgraded to a provincial art college two years ago, but everyone is accustomed to calling it Songzhou Art College. After the upgrade, Songzhou Art College also specially acquired 1,200 acres of land in Nancheng New District and began to build a new school.
campus, which also received strong support from the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial Department of Culture and the Provincial Department of Radio and Television.
Especially in terms of personnel establishment, the province has given considerable support to Songzhou Art College. At the same time, the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have also given great support in terms of funds, land and policies. This has enabled Songzhou Art College to make large-scale efforts.
The recruitment of outstanding teachers from other places and even some high-paying poaching methods once caused strong dissatisfaction among some schools in other provinces.
"Secretary Lu, generally speaking, the reputation of Songzhou Art College has been further expanded after its upgrade. In East China, Songzhou Art College has already gained considerable popularity. Many students from Fujian, Anhui, Hubei, Hunan, and Jiangsu Province have applied for Songzhou Art College.
, and after students from Songzhou Art College achieved good results in the Youth Singing Competition in 1999, students from Songzhou Art College once again won good rankings in the Youth Singing Competition last year. At the same time, many students who graduated from Songzhou Art College have emerged in provincial-level song and dance groups.
They have become key actors in the group, and some graduates have received praise in some film and television works, so now Songzhou Art Institute intends to expand enrollment after the new campus is built, that is, starting from the year after next..."
Chen Qingfu is very familiar with the situation of Songzhou Art College. It is obvious that he put a lot of effort into the upgrade of Songzhou Art College.
"Well, Secretary Lu, Mayor Qingfu did a lot of work on upgrading the art college. As far as I know, he made at least five or six trips to Beijing, right? The province won't talk about it, basically during that period
I have to run two or three times a week." Cao Zhenhai also echoed.
"Songzhou Art College has now become a city card of Songzhou. It can be said that maybe outside the province, not many people know about Huada Steel, and not many people know about Xinlushan Textile. But when you talk about Songzhou Art College, people will say "Xinlushan Textile"
Whatever role someone plays in a certain TV series, she graduated from Songzhou Art College, or whatever song someone sings is particularly good, he graduated from Songzhou Art College. Therefore, the positive impact of this school is difficult to estimate.
Unexpectedly, many people are not aware of this. They think how much land will be taken up by this school expansion, how cheap cultural and educational land is, and how much more land transfer fees the government will charge if we sell it to real estate developers.
This idea is very short-sighted. He did not expect how much consumption of students would be brought by a school located here. At the same time, how much popularity a school would bring to the surrounding areas, and how much it would boost the value of the surrounding land.
effect."
Lu Weimin shook his head, "Songzhou's culture and education have always been among the best in the province. Not only Songzhou Art College, our Songzhou's basic education is also famous. Qiushi Middle School, Songzhou No. 1 Middle School, Songzhou No. 3 Middle School are famous in the province.
, as far as I know, there are many students from other cities who are very willing to study in these schools. In addition, doesn’t Dingxin International Education Group run a school in our Songzhou? Well, the outside world says it is an aristocratic school, but no matter what, Dingxin International
The brand has also been launched in our Songzhou, attracting many students from other places. This also highlights the superiority of our Songzhou’s educational resources and teaching level. I think that when we Songzhou builds our city’s business card, education should play a role.
A key point." (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
