The pursuit of a position in officialdom

Li Dayong saw Zhou Zhan get out of the car and Li Wujiang and others did not get off, so he had a hunch that the flattery was in the wrong place.

"Director Zhou, welcome Mayor Li to Dongliang County to guide the work." Li Dayong still spoke to Zhou Zhan warmly.

"Thank you, Secretary Li. Mayor Li, please get on the bus. The rest of the people should go back to Dongliang County first."

Li Dayong knew what the leader meant when he heard what Zhou Zhan said. Liu Yongchang was asked to take the others away first, while he got into the vehicle Li Wujiang was riding.

"Mayor Li, you are welcome to come to Dongliang County to inspect and guide the work. It is a great blessing for you to come to our Dongliang County and a blessing to the people of Dongliang County. The 500,000 people of Dongliang County welcome you."

This Li Dayong opened his mouth and complimented him so much that everyone else here blushed. But he was watching no one else.

It was also the first time that Li Wujiang met Li Dayong. He was in his fifties, bald, and seemed to be very loyal, which was completely inconsistent with the image of a political official.

As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face. Li Wujiang didn't argue with Li Dayong about the greeting etiquette. "Secretary Dayong, let's do it. You are an old comrade. You can't stand still."

Zhou Zhan listened to Li Wujiang's instructions and quickly arranged for Li Dayong to sit down.

"Secretary Dayong, I heard a saying in Binzhou that the development of Binzhou depends on Dongliang. This shows that the economic development of Dongliang County is in a leading position in Binzhou City. I wonder what the development momentum of Dongliang County is this year?"

Chapter 460 Hundreds of rivals vie for the upper hand and move forward bravely

"Mayor Li, you are really complimenting me. However, Dongliang County has indeed done some work in economic development in the past two years. On the one hand, it is to transform the government service system, create a good business environment, and ensure that enterprises are attracted and retained. Come down. As Mayor Li said, we must use the spirit of waiters to effectively serve entrepreneurs and protect the development of enterprises. On the other hand, we have increased investment promotion efforts, cultivated investment promotion classes, established major project libraries, and highlighted recruitment. Large projects and large-scale projects have focused on cultivating the shipbuilding industry and petrochemical equipment manufacturing industry in the past two years. Based on these two major industries, we continue to extend the upstream and downstream industrial chains and increase the added value of our products.”

Li Dayong's words were so clear and logical that Li Wujiang could not find a single fault. It seems that Li Dayong has done enough homework. "Okay, if Binzhou wants to develop, the counties and districts are the focus. Only when the counties and districts develop and grow, can Binzhou develop and grow. Each county must focus on its own characteristic industries, continue to become stronger and bigger, and hundreds of rivals will compete and work bravely. Move forward and you will show your true colors.”

"We know that Mayor Li is very good at grasping economic work and attracting investment. During his work in Huayuan Province, he introduced a large number of enterprises in Beijing and Jiangzhou, which promoted the development of Huayuan's economy. This is also known as Because of the Huayuan phenomenon, Mayor Li is here in Dongliang County and I hope he can give you some advice."

This Li Dayong made Li Wujiang even more impressed. He actually knew him very clearly. He knew everything he was doing in Huayuan Province. This person was really not simple. If he could focus on the convenience of work, then there would be no need to worry about the development of Dongliang County. Can't get up. "Okay, as long as it is conducive to the economic development of Dongliang County, as long as it can benefit the people of Dongliang County, I can do whatever you, the secretary, ask me to do. If I need to personally lead a team to the south to attract investment, I will also be obliged to do so. . Of course, if anyone blocks the development of Dongliang County, the people will not tolerate it, and I will not tolerate it.”

The first half of Li Wujiang's sentence was encouragement, and the second half was a naked warning. Li Wujiang knew that to develop the economy, he needed to find a breakthrough point, just like the Liuhe County's development focus was the Liuhe Winery. The development focus of Binzhou City is Dongliang County. He did careful research and found that Dongliang County's industrial economy ranks first in Binzhou City, accounting for one-third of Binzhou City. Dongliang County not only has a complete petrochemical and shipbuilding industry chain, but also has the best port terminals in the three eastern provinces. Revitalizing Dongliang County is equivalent to revitalizing the entire Binzhou City. But now the most critical Dongliang Port is not functioning, but is being controlled and used by others. This is something Li Wujiang cannot tolerate. This is also the purpose of his visit to Dongliang County, to find out the true situation of Dongliang Port.

"Mayor Li, don't worry. It is not only your wish to develop Dongliang well, but also the wish of our entire Dongliang County cadres. Whoever delays the development of Dongliang County will be the sinner of Dongliang."

After Li Wujiang went to the Dongliang County Party Committee to briefly listen to the report, he went to Binjiang Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. to visit and inspect.

Li Wujiang arrived at Binjiang Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. and discovered that Dongliang was actually doing a good job. There were nearly thirty or forty companies upstream and downstream around the shipbuilding company, which was considered to be quite large at the time.

"Mayor Li, Binjiang Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. is a state-owned enterprise jointly established by the province and city. In principle, it is not under the management of Dongliang County. However, we have established a good cooperative relationship with shipbuilding companies over the years. Focusing on shipbuilding, we have introduced Upstream and downstream enterprises have promoted the development of Dongliang County.”

"Okay, Secretary Dayong, you are a sensible person. Whether it is a state-owned enterprise or a private enterprise, whether it is a provincial enterprise or a municipal enterprise, only a good cadre can do a good job around these enterprises. We cannot let these high-quality resources go to waste , we must make full use of these resources and let them play their greatest role. Mr. Yang, Binjiang Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. is our largest enterprise in Binjiang. We must continue to play a leading role and in this era of great development, we must bravely stand at the forefront of the times. , constantly innovating technology and constantly bringing forth new ones. As the global economy continues to develop, the exchanges between countries become closer and closer, and the earth will become a global village. By then, our country will also become a gathering place for global manufacturing and logistics products. Ocean routes will play a huge role. Our Binzhou shipbuilding industry must not only undertake the national military industry, but also transform into commercial shipbuilding.”

Yang Guoxian, the current general manager of Binzhou Shipbuilding Company, was noncommittal about Li Wujiang's opinion. Although Binzhou Shipbuilding Company is an enterprise jointly constructed by the province and city, its management authority still belongs to the Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, so he may or may not listen to Li Wujiang's words. "Mayor Li, Binzhou Shipbuilding Company was originally a military enterprise. It mainly provided related products to the country. It wants to transform into a business. I think this is not in line with national policy, and it is not in line with the development direction of Binzhou Shipbuilding Company."

Li Wujiang did not expect that Yang Guoxian would dare to contradict him in front of so many people. "Mr. Yang, it has been more than 20 years since my country's reform and opening up. The country's large and medium-sized central enterprises are making adjustments to follow the development of the times. The development of enterprises must follow the laws of the market. If they do not follow the laws of the market, they do not follow the development concepts of modern enterprises. , If we don’t change our thinking and carry out reforms, the development of the enterprise will encounter difficulties sooner or later.”

"Mayor Li, we appreciate your kindness. We will also consider your opinions, but the future development direction of Binzhou Shipbuilding Company depends on the opinions of the Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission."

Zhou Zhan also worked in Binzhou Shipbuilding Company back then and knew Yang Guoxian's character. He was a good person, but his mind was stubborn and could not keep up with the development of the times, so he later left the shipyard. He contradicted Li Wujiang so much today. It seemed that he still didn't know Li Wujiang's tricks.

Li Wujiang and his party came out of the shipyard, and Li Dayong was a little embarrassed. He usually has a good relationship with Yang Guoxian, but this little old man is a docile donkey with a very stubborn mind, and it is difficult to do anything if you follow him. If you don't follow him, he won't recognize anyone. "Mayor Li, don't get angry with this little old man, he has this temper. Mr. Yang has worked in the shipyard all his life and has a deep affection for the shipyard. So he has some resistance to the restructuring."

"Secretary Dayong, your thoughts are very dangerous. As a local leader, you must always see the direction of the country's development and keep up with the development pace of the national and provincial committees. In this era, if you don't advance, you will retreat. You If you don't make progress, others will. If you don't understand the direction, you will delay the development of a place or an enterprise. If you don't change your thinking, then change your position. You can't delay it just because of you. development of the city.”

Chapter 461 Refining and Chemical Integrated Project, Super Large Project

Li Wujiang's thoughts were very sharp and his speech was very straightforward, which was a bit difficult for Li Dayong to accept. But Li Dayong is the kind of person who can bend and stretch. No matter who slaps him in the face, he can always smile. Li Wujiang was not afraid that Yang Guoxian would hear these words, but deliberately asked people like Li Dayong to pass the message to Yang Guoxian. Li Wujiang will still give Yang Guoxian the opportunity. As for whether he can grasp it, it depends on his own understanding. Li Wujiang will not wait long because Binzhou City cannot afford to wait.

Li Wujiang and his party went to Binzhou Petrochemical Equipment Manufacturing Company relatively smoothly. Because Binzhou Petrochemical Equipment Manufacturing Company is a secondary subsidiary of Jiliao Petrochemical Company. In other words, Ding Fangning is in charge of this company. Ding Fangning knew that Li Wujiang was coming to visit Binzhou Petrochemical Equipment Manufacturing Company, and originally planned to visit Li Wujiang one day in advance. But because the ministries and commissions from the capital came to inspect, he hurried to Dongliang County today. Others didn't know how powerful Li Wujiang was, but Ding Fangning knew. When Zhao Qianlong introduced Tang Jiahe, Wang Kuisheng and him to Li Wujiang, they were a little indifferent. However, they did not expect that it was Li Wujiang, the young secretary, who sent Tang Jiahe to the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee and arranged Wang Kuisheng to serve as the mayor of Baoquan City. Position, this is not something that anyone can do casually, but Li Wujiang did it. At the beginning, Li Wujiang asked him for his opinion on whether he was willing to enter politics. If he was willing to enter politics, he could at least be assigned to work in a provincial-level unit. But Ding Fangning refused. He still liked working in the enterprise. This time Li Wujiang came to Binzhou to work. Binzhou Petrochemical Equipment Manufacturing Company is their most important secondary subsidiary. He believed that when Li Wujiang arrived in Binzhou, he would definitely find a way to develop Binzhou Petrochemical Equipment Manufacturing Company. This is also a good opportunity for him. Chance.

"Mayor Li, you are warmly welcome to Binzhou Petrochemical Company to visit and guide our work. With your coming, our company has seen the hope of development." Ding Fangning held Li Wujiang with both hands, which showed that the two people have an unusual relationship.

"Mr. Ding, you are an expert in the petrochemical industry. The development of Binzhou still relies on entrepreneurs like you. Today I am here to worship the God of Wealth. I hope Binzhou Petrochemical will continue its efforts and make new contributions to the development of Binzhou City." Li Wujiang lifted Ding Fangning very high.

"Director Zhu, Secretary Li, and County Magistrate Liu also welcome you to Binzhou Petrochemical." Although Ding Fangning is the CEO of the company, his standards are much higher than Yang Guoxian. Yang Guoxian is a department-level cadre, and Ding Fangning is a department-level cadre, with a higher position than Li Dayong and Zhu Yinglai.

Li Wujiang and Ding Fangning walked in front to talk, leaving everyone behind. Zhu Yinglai also knew that Li Wujiang and Ding Fangning had something to talk about, so he deliberately gave them space.

"Mayor Li, I didn't expect you to change from Director Li to Mayor Li in a blink of an eye. I haven't had time to congratulate you yet. Mr. Zhao said that he will be in Jining soon. Then everyone will set up a table to celebrate you, Mayor Li. "

"Mr. Ding, we are all old friends. We can drink at any time. But when I arrive in Binzhou, you have to help me. If Binzhou wants to develop, it depends on old friends like you."

"Mayor Li, don't worry. As long as I am in Jiliao Chemical Industry for one day, I will support the development of Binzhou's petrochemical equipment industry. I will do whatever you tell me to do." Ding Fangning was not upset because Li Wujiang left Li Weiguo Although he looked down on Li Wujiang, he valued him even more. For a thirty-year-old mayor, this is unique in the country. At the age of thirty, I took up a department-level position. Are the deputy ministerial and ministerial levels still far away? Ding Fangning couldn't even imagine this.

"Mr. Ding, I feel relieved because of your words. However, Binzhou Petrochemical Equipment Manufacturing Company has great market prospects and potential. I hope to build Binzhou Petrochemical Equipment Manufacturing Company into a first-class enterprise in the country and even the world. I hope With Binzhou Petrochemical Equipment Manufacturing Company as the leader, we will build a nest to attract birds and make Binzhou the largest petrochemical base in the country.”

Li Wujiang said that he was the largest company in the country and the world. How could Ding Fangning not be moved? "Mayor Li, I really saw the right person. When you arrived in Binzhou, you made big moves and projects. This made me feel excited. But Mayor Li, you also know that although our Jilin Petrochemical Company is the largest in the province, Chemical enterprises, but currently have limited funds and a shortage of projects, I think it is still difficult to develop Binzhou Petrochemical into the largest base in the country," Ding Fangning said matter-of-factly.

"I know that this is difficult. Now the whole country is developing, and there are difficulties everywhere. What we are fighting for now is time and courage. When encountering narrow roads, the brave will win. As long as we seize the development opportunities and strive for them actively, big projects will surely Yes. As my country's economy continues to develop, the demand for oil and gas in the automotive and industrial manufacturing fields will continue to increase. This is a great time to develop the petrochemical industry. Whoever takes the first bite will be one step ahead. Step by step. You are an expert in the petrochemical field. Are there any projects in this field recently?

Ding Fangning looked at Li Wujiang with wide eyes. Recently, he had indeed heard that the country intended to develop an integrated petrochemical refining project. This was a large project worth tens of billions. He could not even imagine such a large project. "Mayor Li, did you hear some news and test me on purpose?"

When Li Wujiang heard what Ding Fangning said, he knew there was something going on. At Li Wujiang's urging, Ding Fangning talked about the petrochemical refining and chemical integration project.

"Okay, Mr. Ding, you are still hiding such a good project. Refining and chemical integration is the future development direction of the domestic petrochemical industry. Focusing on the diversification of petrochemical raw materials, we will promote the extension of basic chemical raw materials to high-end fine chemicals and new chemical materials." , accelerate the construction of key refining and chemical integration projects, and promote the development of hundreds of billions of petrochemical industry clusters. At present, the domestic petrochemical industry is undergoing earth-shaking changes, and the refining power is shifting towards the chemical industry. In the future, there will be an endless number of petrochemical industry projects under construction and planning. The good development prospects of refining and chemical integration are obvious, and the domestic petrochemical industry must seize the opportunity to live up to Binzhou and the future.”

Ding Fangning still underestimated Li Wujiang. He didn't expect that Li Wujiang would think of so much just when he mentioned the refining and chemical integration project. It seems that Li Wujiang is no ordinary person, but such a big project is not just a matter of words. "Mayor Li, I have to dampen your enthusiasm. For such a big project, we have little chance. Whether it is Binzhou or Jining, if compared with developed cities in the south, our competitiveness is not great. For such a big project It not only requires the local government to provide relevant funds, but also has convenient transportation conditions. Although Binzhou has the only sea port in Jining, the development of Binzhou Port in recent years is not optimistic. "

Chapter 462 Sinners in Binzhou, Sinners in Jining

"Mr. Ding, let's not worry about these for now. My aim is that there is nothing impossible, only things that we dare not think about. Currently, in the face of such a major historical opportunity, if we miss it, we will be the sinners of Binzhou and the sinners of Jining. Sinner. Don't worry about other things. I will report to Secretary Li and go to Beijing to fight for the project. The most important thing at the moment is that you have to understand the specific progress of this project and who our competitors are. We can only do this if we know ourselves and the enemy. You can win every battle. I will arrange for Mayor Qi from the municipal government to cooperate with you." Li Wujiang thought about it and started to do it immediately. This is a manifestation of his vigorous and resolute work.

Seeing how confident Li Wujiang was, Ding Fangning's emotions aroused. If Binzhou can introduce such a large project, it will be a blessing for him, the boss of Jiliao Chemical Industry. Large-scale projects worth over 10 billion will also help Jiliao Chemical Industry reach a new level. "Okay, Mayor Li, I will follow your arrangements. I will do whatever you say. But Binzhou Port is a big problem. If the problem of Binzhou Port is not solved, I think such a big project will not be settled at all. Binzhou.”

"Don't worry, I will arrange it myself. Anyone who blocks Binzhou's development is digging his own grave."

In order to determine the current status of the project, Li Wujiang directly called Lu Donghui's secretary Liang Heng in front of Ding Fangning. Over the years, he and Liang Heng have established a good relationship, and they will arrange for people to send some specialties to Liang Heng during holidays. Of course, Liang Heng also knew about the relationship between Li Wujiang and Lu Donghui, and was extremely polite to Li Wujiang. Li Wujiang learned from Liang Heng that such a project currently exists, and that Guangxia Province, Zhejiang Province and other places are currently participating in the competition. However, Liang Heng also told Li Wujiang that due to the relatively large scale of this project, the ministry is still in the initial stage of formulating the project and it will take some time to implement it.

Li Wujiang knew what Liang Heng meant, which was to tell him that if Jining wanted to compete, there was still time. After Li Wujiang heard this, he expressed his gratitude to Liang Heng.

"Mr. Ding, your information is very accurate. The National Development and Reform Commission does have this project. It is still in the project planning stage and there is still some time before implementation. This gives us sufficient preparation time. During this time, you will have to work hard to prepare the relevant information. material."

Ding Fangning really admired Li Wujiang's magical power. He could know the progress of the project with just one phone call to the capital. This made him more confident in this integrated refining and chemical project. "Mayor Li, don't worry, I will go all out to prepare relevant information during this period."

Li Wujiang did not disclose the relevant information to Li Dayong and others. He hoped to wait until everything was confirmed.

Li Wujiang stayed in Dongliang County that night, accompanied by Ding Fangning, Yang Guoxian, Li Dayong and others. Everyone enjoyed the meal.

After dinner, Li Dayong arranged for Li Wujiang and others to stay at a hotel in Linhai.

"Zhou Zhan, let's go for a walk."

"Mayor Li, should you inform Secretary Dayong to arrange for someone to guide us?" As secretary, Zhou Zhan needs to be responsible for Li Wujiang's safety.

"Let's go out for a walk and exercise. Why do we need someone to accompany us?" After saying that, Li Wujiang took the initiative to go out first, and Zhou Zhan quickly followed.

"Zhou Zhan, you worked in a shipyard before. What do you know about the current shipyard?"

Zhou Zhan knew that Li Wujiang was inspecting him, and he also knew that Li Wujiang was not satisfied with the current situation of Binzhou Shipbuilding Company. So he pondered for a long time before saying, "Mayor Li, I graduated with a major in shipbuilding. After graduation, I went to work in a shipyard. I started as an ordinary technician and I have feelings for the shipyard. Binzhou shipbuilding has a glorious history. It was one of the four major shipyards in my country and contributed to the country's military industry. However, in recent years, the shipyard has still stuck to its old ways and failed to keep up with the development of the times. It is still proud of being a state-owned military factory and has not been able to do so in a timely manner. We have changed our thinking and failed to keep up with the pace of historical development, which has resulted in a growing gap with several shipyards in the south.”

"Then what do you think the future of Binzhou Shipyard is?"

"Binzhou Shipyard still has a deep foundation as one of the four major shipyards. The shipbuilding equipment system is relatively complete. The shipyard has also cultivated many skilled technical workers. In addition, Binzhou Shipyard's military technology and craftsmanship have been leading in the field of shipbuilding in recent years. At present, if shipyards want to become bigger and stronger and go abroad, they need to change their development ideas, further improve their technical level, increase the research and development of core technologies, inject new impetus, connect with the market, integrate with the world, and let the shipyard personnel Go out and study in shipyards in developed countries to improve your personal vision and abilities.”

It can be seen that Zhou Zhan still has deep feelings for the shipyard and has a clear understanding of the shipyard. Li Wujiang only kept Zhou Zhan by his side for a short period of time. He just wanted to keep him by his side for observation for a while to see if he could shoulder the big responsibility. "Zhou Zhan, are you willing to let you return to the shipyard?"

Zhou Zhan felt excited in his heart. He is a shipbuilding major and has worked in a shipyard for more than ten years. He still has feelings for the shipyard. It would be a dream for him to return to a field he is familiar with. He also knows that if he goes back, he will be the number one, and his level can be raised one level. "Mayor Li, I completely obey your arrangements. I will go wherever you ask me to go."

"Okay, you'd better follow me during this period and practice hard."

As the two people were walking, they saw cars coming out of Dongliang Port, and each car was loaded with items. Only then did Zhou Zhan realize that the two people had walked to Dongliang Port unknowingly. He felt that Li Wujiang came here on purpose. Others don't know the situation in Dongliang Port. After working in Dongliang Port for so many years, he is still relatively aware of the problems in Dongliang Port. Everyone knows that smuggling exists in Dongliang Port, but it has persisted for so many years. This is a big problem.

"What do you do? Why are you here?" A bald man asked Li Wujiang.

Zhou Zhan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "We came to Dongliang for fun and went out for a walk at night."

"From the look of your sly eyebrows, you don't look like you are here for tourism at all. Brothers, take these two away." The bald man gave an order, and three or four gangsters surrounded Li Wujiang and the two of them.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhan was worried that something might happen to Li Wujiang, so he immediately stepped forward to stop him, "Who are you and why are you arresting us? We are just tourists passing by."

Chapter 463 Whose territory is Dongliang Port?

The more righteous and stern Zhou Zhan's words were, the less the other party believed what Zhou Zhan said. "Stop pretending to be nice in front of us. We will find out who you are when we take you back."

Zhou Zhan wanted to negotiate further, but Li Wujiang stopped him. He signaled to follow the arrangements of these people.

The bald man brought Li Wujiang and Zhou Zhan to the office area of ​​the port.

"Tell me honestly what you are doing, or we will be rude to you." The bald man said viciously.

When Li Wujiang entered the port, he discovered that it was brightly lit and busy. Such a busy Dongliang Port was completely different from what he heard. Moreover, these people were doing it secretly, and he had reason to suspect that their behavior was smuggling. "Oh, who are you? No matter what we do, what reason do you have for bringing us here."

Li Wujiang's words stopped the bald man in his tracks, and he said angrily, "Who we are is not something you should know. This is our territory. If you go to our territory, you still have to question us."

"Oh, this is your territory. Who are you and what do you do? Why is Dongliang Port your territory? Isn't this a place for Dongliang people? Doesn't this place allow other people to come?"

"I see that you are not a tourist at all, and you come here deliberately to find trouble. If I don't let you suffer a little, you won't know how many eyes I have. Xiaoma, do it."

Seeing that the bald man and others were about to take action, Li Wujiang shouted loudly, "You are really powerful. Lang Lang Qiankun dared to carry out lynching. You are knowing the law and breaking the law. I don't think Ji Ning's anti-gang and evil storm has been completely effective in Binzhou."

The bald man was furious when Li Wujiang said, "Crack down on gangsters and eliminate evil without even looking at who our boss is? No kind of wind can blow against us. If you want to eradicate us, I think you are just dreaming. In our case Here, our boss is Tian.”

"Oh, then who has the final say here, Li Dayong or Liu Yongchang?"

Zhou Zhan felt frightened after hearing Li Wujiang's words. It seemed that his guess was correct. Li Wujiang deliberately took him to Dongliang Port to check the situation. Things may change in Dongliang. This was Zhou Zhan's first feeling.

The bald man was shocked when he heard Li Wujiang talking about Li Dayong and Liu Yongchang. It was not because he was afraid, but because he realized that he had really hit the iron plate. "I don't know who Li Dayong and Liu Yongchang are at all. We are engaged in enterprise and business, and I don't know the people you mentioned at all."

"Do you know Brother Lin?"

The bald man really wanted to scold his mother after hearing this. Why did this man move his boss out? Could it be that he knew his boss? "Who are you? Tell me your name. Don't be pretentious here."
