Volume 18, the tide is high, section 119, there is a problem
No one expected that this turmoil would arouse so many people's attention. At least Lu Weimin never expected that even the two main leaders of the province would put so much thought into such an idea.
You said that some provincial leaders are involved out of personal interests, but it is obviously unlikely that Rong and Du are so concerned about this idea because of their personal interests. The issues they consider are much more complex and broader.
An important factor is the feeling of Changzhou.
If you watch helplessly such a university town and high-tech industrial park being built on a site not far from Changzhou city but belonging to Songzhou, and making everything go crazy, it would really be a slap in the face.
That's the move.
But then again, you can’t say that Songzhou doesn’t have the power to build such a university town and high-tech industrial park. On their territory, no matter how close they are to you or how closely they are connected with you, it’s still their territory.
's territory.
Changda and Changjiang University of Aeronautics and Astronautics chose the new campus for expansion. It is a given that they chose Xifeng Mountain District because the conditions in Xifeng Mountain District are the most suitable. This is their freedom of choice. Similarly, if the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China chooses this place, it is also the freedom of others.
.
You don't have the ability yourself, so you can't blame others for doing this, but people's mentality cannot be like this. The mentality of wishing people to be poor and hating others to be rich not only exists between people, but also exists between regions.
However, for Lu Weimin, he feels that Songzhou and Changzhou can now get rid of such a narrow mentality.
Songzhou's growth rate in the first quarter of this year still remains above 50%. Compared with the growth rate in the fourth quarter of last year, it has dropped significantly, but this should be a normal decline. After all, an economy with a total GDP of 180 billion cannot
It may no longer be as willful as it was when GDP reached tens of billions.
Lu Weimin predicts that the second and third quarters should be a period of high economic growth. However, combined with the steady decline of the city's overall economic level, Songzhou's economic growth rate may still remain at around 50%. By the fourth quarter, the growth rate will
Maybe there will be a slight decline.
As a result, Songzhou's annual economic growth rate may remain between 45% and 50%, and the total GDP can be expected to be between 250 billion and 260 billion. If the expectations are higher, it will be between 260 billion and 270 billion.
Between billions.
Compared with Songzhou's economic growth rate of over 40%, Changzhou's economic growth rate is still disappointing, and the 68% growth rate in the first quarter is hardly satisfactory. This makes the difference between Changzhou, Songzhou and Kunhu
The distance is getting farther and farther.
Under this circumstance, if Songzhou launches the construction plan of this university town and high-tech industrial park, it will undoubtedly be a huge stimulus to Changzhou. If we say that the economic status of the two sides was reversed or similar a few years ago.
Changzhou may still support such a plan, but now I'm afraid it really feels like it's stuck in my throat.
No matter how Songzhou's economy developed, its status could never replace Changzhou. Lu Weimin knew this very well.
As the economic, cultural and political center of Changjiang Province, Changzhou has historically been the core of Changjiang Province. As a sub-provincial city, Changzhou's political status is not comparable to that of Songzhou. Although Songzhou's economic strength now far exceeds that of Changzhou,
state, but its foundation in other aspects is still much inferior to that of Changzhou.
From the perspective of Changjiang Province, the province will not tolerate Changzhou's continued decline. If this situation is allowed to continue, it will be a shame for the current provincial party committee and the provincial government. Seeing a country with the largest population and economic base helplessly
The most powerful/highest political status city is surpassed by ordinary cities one after another, and the negative impact it brings can be imagined.
Lu Weimin feels that Changzhou now is a bit like Songzhou when he first arrived in 1998. He has a very sensitive psychology and a strong sense of face. He sees the neighboring cities in full swing, but he is half-dead. This feeling is really
It was very frustrating and uncomfortable.
So at this time, when the provincial party committee and the provincial government reviewed the university town and high-tech industrial park proposed by Songzhou, they had to consider more. This is because Lu Weimin realized that the province has not yet reached a conclusion on this plan.
I realized it when.
Before, he thought it was because some differences between himself and Qin Baohua on the planning scale and construction procedures of the university town and high-tech industrial park were deliberately used and hyped by interested people, causing doubts in the province. Now it seems that is not the case.
, the differences between himself and Qin Baohua had been negotiated and communicated long ago, but the province was still reluctant to come to a conclusion, and he realized that there might be something fishy here.
In the morning, Du Chongshan also tactfully mentioned on the phone that the province still needs to further review and improve the concept of this plan, but he did not explain what problems existed. Lu Weimin knew it in his heart, so he did not ask any more questions.
Lu Weimin also has some regrets. It seems that this plan concept will be delayed for a while, but he doesn't know how long this delay will last, and it is hard to say whether there will be any variables here.

"Songzhou has posed a problem for us." Rong Daosheng smiled and touched his cheek, "The intention is very good. The Songzhou Municipal Party Committee is very cautious when it comes to development issues. This is difficult for other cities in our country.
This is especially worth learning from some of our cities that are currently experiencing good economic development. People are not as good as a thousand days, and flowers are not as good as a hundred days. The Songzhou Municipal Party Committee has achieved good results in economic development, but it can plan industrial development with a long-term vision at this time.
Transformation and improvement are really rare. Songzhou has maintained a high economic growth rate since the late 1990s and has made great contributions to the people."
It can be said that it is very rare and rare for a provincial party committee secretary to use such language to evaluate a municipal party committee secretary, especially in front of the provincial governor and deputy secretary of the provincial party committee.
Du Chongshan also smiled and nodded: "It has indeed posed a problem for the province. I think Lao Peng and Lao Mao were greatly stimulated. During this period, the Changzhou Municipal Government has been communicating with Changda, hoping that Changda can put the new
The location of the campus was chosen within the jurisdiction of Changzhou City, and Mao Daoan even went to the door to do the work in person. It was rare to see them getting anxious."
"Well, the location selection in Songzhou is very good. The Xifeng Mountain area in Xita is only half an hour's drive away from our provincial party committee and provincial government. Even if there is a traffic jam, you can get there within an hour. I heard that the vegetation there is extremely well protected, and there are mountains and water.
, the air is fresh, and the housing prices are much lower than Changzhou, why don't people choose there?" Rongdao said: "Now you want people to choose Changzhou in Changzhou, and people ask you what kind of place can have the conditions of Xifeng Mountain District?
Okay, can you find a place with complete infrastructure and cheap prices?"
Fang Guogang also joined in, "When the Yuxi Highway was built, Changzhou was not very happy and felt that it would be more beneficial to Songzhou if this road was built. At that time, Lu Weimin was the deputy secretary of the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and the executive deputy mayor.
Well, all the hard work finally led to the launch of this road. Now it seems that this move was a far-sighted move. It suddenly used Xita, a chess piece that was originally in a corner of Songzhou. Now Xita has become Song Dynasty.
It is said that Songzhou is also preparing to build a fast track, starting from the intersection of the Third Ring Road planned by Lucheng and the others, and connecting the West Tower with the Yuxi Highway.
Due to the pressure of highways, on the other hand, Lucheng can also be included in their Songzhou urban planning."
"Well, Lao Fang's assessment is very accurate. Lu Weimin sees things with a depth that ordinary people don't have. Yuxi Highway is an example, but how can this university town and high-tech industrial park not be the same now? Songzhou is very good at higher education and scientific research.
The strength of Changzhou is weaker than that of Changzhou, so Songzhou has been trying to make up for it in this regard. Songzhou has been promoting the development of vocational education, and has introduced a series of policies to encourage private capital to enter vocational education. The government will provide financial subsidies, and at the same time, in the form of government documents
All governments/units and enterprises are required to actively provide various supports and support for the employment of vocational education to encourage the construction of the vocational education system. Now it seems that this area has achieved great results."
Du Chongshan was in high spirits, tapping his fingers lightly and talking enthusiastically.
"Some time ago, when I met with the heads of several large foreign-funded enterprises such as Japan's Yaskawa Electromechanical/American Timken and talked to them about their investment and construction of factories in Songzhou, they all mentioned that compared with other cities, Songzhou also has
The advantages may not be obvious, but there are two that they value particularly. One is the complete industrial chain, which means that they can easily find upstream partners for cooperation by investing in and building factories in Songzhou, and they can also easily
Find downstream demand parties, because there are many mechanical and electrical manufacturing and machining companies in Songzhou, and a relatively complete system has been formed, which can easily digest some products."
"Another point is that Songzhou has quite obvious advantages compared with other places in the training and recruitment of skilled labor. First, Songzhou has a relatively complete vocational education system with many schools, and there are many small and medium-sized enterprises in Songzhou. After graduation, students
, you can easily find a job in these companies even during the internship period. After two or three years of polishing, a group of workers will gradually mature, and companies like Yaskawa Electromechanical and Timken are under construction
Recruiting technicians and skilled workers in the factory is much more convenient and faster than in other places, with less cost investment. This is where they feel they have the most advantage.”
