The pursuit of a position in officialdom

"What you said is wrong. We in Huayuan will still need Secretary Pang to take care of us in the future. The development of Huayuan cannot be separated from everyone's support."

"Secretary Wujiang, don't worry. Our Development Bank will definitely support Huayuan's development. Come on, let me toast you. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation." Pang Shucheng originally thought that Li Wujiang was just taking advantage of Shao Jun, but after Qian Shouxing said, Only then did he realize how capable Li Wujiang was. Being able to have a good relationship with Li Wujiang now is also a good relationship.

This evening, old friends and new friends gathered together, which was very lively. After the banquet, Li Wujiang and Qian Shouxing talked alone for a while.

"Brother Shouxing, since you have reached the core position, brothers should ask you for help if they are in trouble."

Qian Shouxing smiled and said, "Wujiang, we are brothers, just say whatever you want."

"I want to meet Mr. Lu."

"Wujiang, with your relationship with Mr. Lu, you can definitely make an appointment with him alone." Qian Shouxing knew that Li Wujiang had a close relationship with Lu Donghui, so he said this.

"Brother Qian, when a person reaches a certain position, we still have to talk about politics. Besides, I am doing this for work, and it is fair and aboveboard." Li Wujiang could have gone to Lu Donghui directly, but he knew that Lu Donghui was no longer the Lu Donghui he used to be. Once you reach a certain level, you still have to follow the rules.

"Wujiang, are you talking about the construction of Huayuan Aviation Center?"

"Yeah, by the way, Brother Qian, didn't you just come from the Ministry of Transportation? Do you think we, Huayuan, have a chance?"

"Wujiang, to be honest, your Huayuan has little advantage. But from the perspective of aviation development, I think it is necessary for Huayuan to build an aviation center. Our country's civil aviation power does not mean that it is a civil aviation power. If we want to become a legitimate civil aviation power, we need to A more complete and advanced aviation industry also requires stronger and more distinctive airlines. Therefore, at this stage, China is an undisputed civil aviation power, but it is not yet a true civil aviation power. There has been an improvement in scale, and there are also all-round catch-ups in terms of brand, efficiency, technology, and services.”

"What you said has touched my heart. You and I have seen it. Don't the leaders see it? I want to report these contents to the leaders. Huayuan needs this aviation center very much."

"Wujiang, in fact, you understand very well that the key is not that the leaders cannot see it, the key is that our country's current national strength does not allow it. Although our country has achieved rapid economic development after more than 20 years of reform and opening up. But our country's comprehensive national strength There is still a big gap compared with developed countries in the world. Our country needs to spend money in many areas, whether it is agriculture, education, employment, water conservancy, etc. To put it bluntly, our country's financial resources are not enough to support the construction of so many airports. "Qian Shouxing now works at the Government Affairs Research Center and is exposed to specific data on the country's development, so he has a very clear understanding of the country's development.

"Brother Qian, I don't think so. Financial resources do not represent development capabilities. The capital can fully delegate power and provide relevant policies and give provinces, cities and counties more autonomy. As long as they dare to delegate power to local governments, they will use various policies flexibly. Promote local development through loans, bonds, stocks, etc. It’s not that we don’t have money now, but our policies are inflexible and we don’t have enough autonomy. The strategy for the rise of central China that I proposed to Beijing is to give more power to local governments. When it comes to construction, let local governments use their initiative. Maybe the local governments will show the capital an unimaginable development capability.”

Chapter 810 The hero saves the beauty and immediately admits his mistake

Li Wujiang's words made Qian Shouxing think. What Li Wujiang was talking about was the issues of the capital and localities. Now the capital is also thinking in this way and is preparing to introduce relevant policies to support local development. I didn't expect that Li Wujiang could think of this in advance. This is what makes Li Wujiang different. "Okay, Wujiang, I will report to Mr. Lu. Just wait for the call."

Li Wujiang left the hotel with Cui Shangxi and went straight to the Bianzhou Liaison Office in Beijing.

"Secretary Li, I just need to go back to the Beijing Office alone. You don't need to see me off."

"You are a lesbian, and you are not familiar with the place in the capital. What will you do if you run into the wrong place? I have nothing to do, so I just pretend to be sober."

"Thank you, Secretary Li." Cui Shangxi was moved by Li Wujiang several times today.

"Okay, you still need to say these words in front of me. Shang Xi, you have been wronged by this matter today." Li Wujiang said a little helplessly.

"I don't have any grievances. It's good to just pretend that this didn't happen."

"If you are not willing to participate in the cooperation between Bianzhou City and Beijing Development Bank, leave it to others." Li Wujiang said this because he was worried that Cui Shangxi would be shadowed by this matter.

"Secretary Li, don't worry. If I say it's okay, it will be okay. I will definitely connect with the Beijing Development Bank and strive for more loan funds."

"Brother Qian, is Secretary Li as powerful as you said?" Pang Shucheng and Qian Shouxing were on the same road, and asked Li Wujiang again on the way.

"The book is written. Although it started with a bad thing, it created an opportunity for you. Who is Li Wujiang? There is a myth about him in the capital. He has a wide range of contacts, including upper-level leaders." Qian Shouxing pointed to the sky with his hand.

Pang Shucheng was sighing after seeing it. He never thought that Li Wujiang had the ability to reach the sky.

"The upper-level leaders attach great importance to him. You should know what it means to be in the sight of the upper-level leaders at the age of more than 30 years old. You can't even think about it. Li Wujiang is known as a pioneer of reform and opening up in the industry. He The cities where you are located, whether Binzhou or Guangyuan, have achieved rapid development. As long as you follow him, not only will the bank make a lot of money, but your personal future will also change a lot. "

"Brother Qian, then I will follow what you said and cooperate with Secretary Wujiang's work and build a good relationship with him."

"Husband, you are a hero who saved the beauty, and you are finally willing to go home."

Seeing Fang Shuxin's sinister words, Li Wujiang immediately admitted his mistake, "Honey, I was wrong. I shouldn't have ignored your feelings for the sake of work. I voluntarily admit my punishment."

"Isn't that right? How could you be wrong about work?"

"In the face of a beautiful subordinate, I didn't avoid suspicion. I was wrong. The mistake was that I didn't care about my wife's feelings and let her eat the wrong food."

"Isn't your female subordinate pretty?"

"She's not beautiful, Shu Xin's wife is the most beautiful woman in the world." Li Wujiang knew that Fang Shuxin was not really angry, so he moved his hands and tickled Fang Shuxin's body with the purpose of diverting Fang Shuxin's attention.

"Okay, since you say good things about me, I'm going to check whether you are loyal to me or not. If you don't do it seven times tonight, it means you are not loyal to me."

Li Wujiang listened to Fang Shuxin's request seven times, and was so frightened that he knelt on the bed and begged for mercy. How could Fang Shuxin let him go? She took off Li Wujiang's clothes and the two started fighting.

Li Wujiang, Tang Lixin, and Liu Sen told them to meet at the entrance of the transportation department, and the two of them were waiting for Li Wujiang at the entrance of the transportation department early in the morning.

"Mayor Tang, why do I feel like we are going to fail this time?" Liu Sen said with a wry smile.

"You have to believe in Secretary Li. As long as he is here, there is nothing he can't do."

"The key is that these projects require real money. Based on the actual situation in Bianzhou City, it is estimated that it will be difficult to come up with so much funds."

"This is not to bring Director Cui to the capital for loan financing. I heard that Director Cui has gained something."

Just as he was talking, Li Wujiang came over and said, "Why are you two here so early?"

"We got up early in the morning and had nothing to do, so we came here early to take a look around."

At this time, Liu Chunlin's secretary came out to take over Wujiang's work and acted very enthusiastically. Liu Chunlin first organized a brief welcome ceremony in the conference room, and then asked the comrades of the project department to take Tang Lixin and Liu Sen to dock the project. He brought Li Wujiang to the office for a detailed discussion.

"Uncle, I'm really sorry. On Tiansheng's happy day, I even called you here from home." Li Wujiang said sheepishly.

"Wujiang, you are doing your eldest uncle a favor. There are a lot of things going on at home that make me upset. When you summoned me, I came to work openly and your aunt has no complaints." After Liu Chunlin finished speaking, The two laughed.

"Wujiang, how are you? How was your talk with Director Ma?"

"It's hard to describe in one sentence." Li Wujiang simply told Liu Chunlin about his communication with Ma Botao. "To be honest, there is indeed a certain gap between Huayuan and Nanhu. This indicator is given to Nanhu Province, and we have no complaints."

"Wujiang, this is not your character. If you have such a high profile, why would you go to the capital to fight for a project?"

"I don't want to have a high profile, so we will put our power there. If this is a hard grab, it is not impossible. However, this goes against my advocacy of strengthening cooperation among the six provinces in central China and promoting the rise of central China."

"Then what is your real purpose? You can't come to the capital and return empty-handed." Liu Chunlin still knew Li Wujiang to a certain extent. He didn't believe that Li Wujiang gave up so easily.

"Uncle, of course I won't give up just like that. Do we, Huayuan Province, have to compete with Nanhu Province? Can't we develop independently? Not only do localities need airlines, but airlines also need to go to places. There are great opportunities in the future. , whoever seizes the market will be able to stand at the center of market development. my country's civil aviation industry should adjust its attitude, formulate air transport policies that are open to the world, open up the air transport market actively, gradually, orderly and securely, and increase the number of airports. The number and capacity of airports should be expanded as soon as possible to establish regional and international aviation centers. Only in this way can my country's civil aviation catch up with developed countries in all aspects, becoming faster and more powerful. To truly catch up with or even surpass the civil aviation industry in developed countries, we still need to do a lot. In terms of airline operations and management, there is still a clear gap in the competitiveness and forward-looking layout capabilities of our airlines.”

Liu Chunlin did not expect that Li Wujiang actually said that airlines need more space. This seems a bit abrupt under the current project-centered development concept. However, he did not argue with Li Wujiang, but said, "Wujiang, what you mentioned may be the situation that airlines will face in the future, but how are you going to break the situation now?"

Chapter 811 Breaking the situation is also very simple

"To break the situation, it is actually very simple. That is for the capital to relax its indicators, give local governments certain policies and powers, and give full play to the autonomy of local governments. As long as we are given the corresponding powers, we can come up with a solution." Li Wujiang said confidently.

"The idea is bold, but it will take some time to implement your ideas. The next step for the airport project depends on you. The ministry will seriously consider the layout of railways and highways. After all, Bianzhou is in a In the central location, the north-south and east-west highways and railway arteries need to pass through Bianzhou. Bianzhou is one of the top ten transportation hub cities in my country, and its future positioning is also a national comprehensive hub city. "

"Thank you for your support, uncle. We just hope that some transportation projects can start as soon as possible to promote the economic development of Bianzhou City."

"Don't worry, the Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed railway has been laid out and construction is expected to officially start within this year."

This is the best news Li Wujiang got during his visit to the capital. "Okay, then we will wait for the good news."

Tang Lixin and Liu Sen also came out of the Ministry of Transport with smiles on their faces this time. Not only did they receive a warm reception, but they also received clear answers to several road and railway projects.

"Secretary Li, we have gained a lot from our trip to the capital this time. With these transportation projects, we have something to explain." Liu Sen said with a smile.

"That's enough for you. It's still far from our needs. I made an appointment with Director Ran of the Energy Bureau, and we'll go over to visit Director Ran in the afternoon. The photovoltaic industry in your Chengxi District belongs to new energy and has broad prospects for the future. We need to seek policy support from the Energy Bureau to incorporate photovoltaic energy into future development plans and promote the implementation of photovoltaic power generation in various regions. Then our photovoltaic industry in Bianzhou City will explode in the future. In addition, I have contacted several university laboratories. We must visit them one by one and strive to establish the largest and most advanced photovoltaic industry laboratory in Bianzhou to lay a solid foundation for further development.”

Tang Lixin's development policy is to be strict and unbending. If he doesn't move, he will push it forward in an all-round way. When one side sings, the other side will take the stage.

In the next two days, Li Wujiang took Tang Lixin and Liu Sen to visit various units in the capital, which allowed them to see Li Wujiang's ability and skills again.

When Li Wujiang was running these projects, he was actually waiting for a call from Qian Shouxing. It was not until two days later that Qian Shouxing notified Li Wujiang that Lu Donghui was free during lunch. Li Wujiang was eating with Tang Lixin and left in a hurry.

"Leader, I'm disturbing your rest."

"Wujiang, how did you learn to be so humble? What's wrong, why are you rushing to see me? If it's for the Huayuan Aviation Center, there's nothing I can do."

Lu Donghui blocked Li Wujiang's mouth when he came up, making Li Wujiang a little embarrassed to open his mouth. But the opportunity was before Li Wujiang, and he had to say it. "Leader, I know the leaders are in trouble, but I still want to fight for Huayuan."

Lu Donghui was quite satisfied with Li Wujiang's attitude of not giving up until he reached the Yellow River. The most important thing about grassroots cadre work is perseverance and the courage to try. "Okay, since you kid is willing to fight for it, then I will listen to your opinion."

"It's not a high opinion. This is just my experience. Our country's development speed should be noticed by the leaders. If it continues to develop at this speed, our country's economy will expand tremendously, and the population and goods will face With such a large population base in our country, our transportation cannot meet people's increasing needs for travel and cross-regional movement of goods. This requires us to take a forward-looking view, arrange large-scale transportation in a big pattern, and establish a complete system. I believe the leaders are aware of the three-dimensional transportation system of sea, land and air, and building a global aviation center and port center. However, the biggest problem is that there is insufficient financial resources to carry out such a large-scale layout at the same time.”

"Wujiang, you have seen the problem very clearly, so how do you think we can solve this contradiction?" Lu Donghui was aroused by Li Wujiang. He is now mainly engaged in economic work and has a clear understanding of the current situation, but how to solve it? , and it became a worry for him. Li Wujiang happened to bump into him, so let him talk about it.

"Decentralize power and boldly delegate power to local governments. I talked about this in the plan to realize the rise of central China. Our country has a large population, a vast territory, unbalanced social and economic development, and the tasks of reform, development and stability are very arduous. The capital city delegates power to local governments. , can focus more energy on major issues related to the long-term and overall situation, plan for the overall situation, and grasp major issues. With social development, local governments also assume more social management responsibilities, and they need to fully mobilize the enthusiasm and initiative of local governments. . By reducing interference in micro-level affairs, strengthening macro-management, and stricter post-event supervision, the capital can better ensure that it does not intervene in matters that should not be managed, and effectively manages those that should be managed. Through decentralization, local governments can receive more investment. The approval rights and production and operation approval rights are things that all places have been waiting for for a long time," Li Wujiang said looking at Lu Donghui's face. The matter of delegating power is very sensitive. This represents a serious issue for the capital and local governments as to how to decentralize and how to change it.

Lu Donghui knew that Li Wujiang was bold, but he didn't expect that this guy was getting bolder and bolder. However, Li Wujiang's ideas coincide with those of the top management. Currently, senior leaders are still controversial about how to delegate power. The key point of the dispute is where to delegate power and how much to delegate. It just so happened that he could take this opportunity to test Li Wujiang. "Delegating power is a good idea, but how do you think it is appropriate to delegate it?"

“I think since we are going to delegate power, we should be bolder, promote it comprehensively, delegate it comprehensively, and do it in one step. For projects that have been included in the relevant national plans and need to be approved, except for special circumstances and those that require total control, they shall be approved by local governments after reducing the approval according to the principles of the administrative approval system; for some projects supported by the state, the capital will only determine the investment direction, principles and standards, and the specific arrangements will be made by the local government. All approvals for production and business activities that are directly oriented to the grassroots, large in volume and wide in scope, or more convenient and effective for local implementation shall be delegated to the local government. This is very necessary. As my country's economy deepens reform and expands opening up, it is increasingly necessary for the capital level to delegate power in a targeted manner, allowing some regions to formulate development strategies suitable for their regions according to their own conditions and break down the institutional and mechanism obstacles that hinder development. Only by giving local governments more autonomy and supporting local governments to carry out work creatively can we build a work system with clear responsibilities, smooth operation and vitality from the capital to the local governments.”

Chapter 812 Planning collides with planning, it doesn’t matter

Li Wujiang’s words made Lu Donghui thoughtful. After thinking for a while, he said, “The wise change with the times, and the knowledgeable make decisions according to the situation. Wujiang, you are very accurate in seeing things. Decentralization is indeed a difficult problem facing Beijing now. Faced with the new situation of economic development, how to define the appropriate relationship between Beijing and local powers and responsibilities, give some regions more autonomy, and let local governments formulate policies and regulations that are more suitable for their own development conditions to encourage their development is undoubtedly an important direction for breaking down institutional and mechanism barriers in the next stage. Giving local governments more autonomy is undoubtedly the most important thing to “let go”. my country is so large that the development of various regions is very uneven. In view of the different economic development conditions and levels, how to let go has become a difficult problem we face. If we are not careful, we will fall into an irreversible situation. However, what you just said about bold reform, daring to think and act, and exploring innovative paths to stimulate greater Taking economic vitality as the starting point is a good idea, and we will consider it comprehensively. Do you think that if you delegate power, Huayuan can build an aviation center based on its own capabilities? "

"As long as we are given the authority, the initiative will be in our hands, and we can do everything possible to promote the construction of the project. Now we don't even have an indicator, so how can we think of every possible way. The best development is orderly competition and cooperation. Take us and Nanhu as an example. We should not be in a competitive relationship, but based on different provincial conditions, learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and promote the development of each province. "

"You are becoming more and more mature, and I already know your ideas. However, how the top leaders will lay out this needs to be considered comprehensively. You should rest assured to return to Huayuan and do your job well. "

Li Wujiang ended this trip to Beijing and returned to Huayuan with Tang Lixin, Cui Shangxi, and Liu Sen.

Soon, news came from Beijing that the Central Aviation Center was finally determined to be in Jianghan City, Nanhu Province.

"Feng Yun, has anything happened in the city recently?"

"Secretary Li, there is nothing big in the city. However, the East District has recently come up with an industrial park plan, which Mayor Song appreciates very much."

"Okay, as long as it is for economic development, we will firmly support it."

Feng Yun said this to remind Li Wujiang that Song Changgong and Chen Xuezhou and others are getting too close. But she can see that Li Wujiang doesn't care. "Secretary Li, something happened in Fengzhou City recently."

"Oh, what happened?" Li Wujiang asked with interest.

"Two cadres in Fengzhou City committed suicide in succession."
