"Lu Zheng, I heard you are going to get engaged?" This was the first sentence when Zhou Tao saw Lu Zheng just now.

Lu Zheng returned to Wushan last night. Today is Monday. Early in the morning, Lu Zheng came to Zhou Tao's office.

"Congratulations," Zhou Tao said with a smile.

Lu Zheng knew that it must be the eldest sister who spoke with him. Zhou Tao and his eldest sister were very familiar with each other, and even made people think that there was an indescribable ambiguous relationship between the two.

Of course, the elder sister knows only a lot of things, and she will definitely keep secrets about what she thinks should not be said, so what Zhou Tao can learn is even more scattered. Even if the woman is a German girl, even if the other party is a German girl, as for the other party’s age, family background, etc., the elder sister doesn’t know, so Zhou Tao has no way to know.

"The trouble of getting married is to get married," Zhou Tao suddenly sighed with emotion.

Lu Zheng glanced at him without saying a word.

Legend has it that the eldest sister and Zhou Tao have been in love, but the age difference is different. Moreover, Zhou Tao had a wife at that time, and he was his father's secretary, so the relationship ended up in the end.

Zhou Tao then covered his seemingly upset mood with a smile and said, "When I have time, I will take your fiancée to Wushan to play. Our two families will gather together. Your sister-in-law, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I'm still talking about you."

Lu Zheng nodded slightly and said, "Okay." Then he said, "Secretary Feng sets the expectations for local fiscal revenue this year very high. I have thought about it and there is a way."

When Zhou Tao heard Lu Zheng mention his work, he became serious, "Well, what can I do?"

Lu Zheng said: "I think we should start with the tobacco industrial and commercial tax. The tax rate in the country is too large. We are 10% in the Wushan local reserve? Now, the central government is starting to explore the tax sharing system. I think we should strive for this part of the fiscal reserve from the central government. Of course, this is not local fiscalism, nor is we bargaining with the country for money. How to say fiscal tax revenue, it should come from the people and use it for the people."

"What is government fiscal revenue? It is originally a wealth created by the people. In addition to maintaining economic development, our government should play a role in regulating this part of wealth, allocating resources through public investment, improving the education level of the poor, improving the basic conditions of poor areas caused by various historical reasons, and avoiding the poor becoming richer and richer. This should be the function of our government and our commitment to realizing common prosperity."

"The meaning of "using the wealth of the world to the people of the world" is a compulsory course in capitalist social theory. Isn't our socialist country still talking about this principle?"

Lu Zheng took a sip of water and said, "So this time we strive for the tax share under the central government. I think we can express our opinion to the central government and all this money is allocated to the rural fund and poverty alleviation fund. Perhaps some people will talk about our Wushan being a formalist, but as long as we do this seriously and have a clear conscience, I think it's enough."

Zhou Tao smiled and nodded: "I'll think about it." Sometimes, when he hears Lu Zheng's words, he will have an illusion, as if he is facing Secretary Lu, and Lu Zheng's courage is so similar to Secretary Lu.

Lu Zheng said again: "There is also our taxation aspect. Secretary Feng mentioned that he is very dissatisfied with Lao Hao. Judging from his meaning, I am afraid that Lao Hao will be removed."

"Hao Renyuan, right?" Zhou Tao thought, without saying a word.

Lu Zheng knew that although Zhou Tao had been flying everywhere for a long time since taking office, how could he not have an in-depth understanding of the men of the Wushan ministries and commissions?

Hao Renyuan, deputy director of the Finance Bureau and director of the Tax Bureau, has a famous good reputation and good old man. Zhou Tao must have heard of it.

"Old Hao's words..." Zhou Tao knocked his fingers on the coffee table, thinking and slowly said: "Who can take over?"

"I think it's more appropriate to call a comrade from below. The comrades from below have nothing to do with the interests of all aspects of Wushan, so it's better to open up and carry out their work." Lu Zheng said and glanced at Zhou Tao. Lu Zheng hadn't considered this issue for a day or two.

Zhou Tao smiled slightly and said, "You should have the right candidate?"

Lu Zheng said: "I asked me to tell you that the Yubu below you are in contact with Qinglong and Guangning's Yubu. I know them better. In terms of tax work, Guangning's Mu Shichou and Qinglong's Zhou Fangzheng have both experience in tax system work and are relatively mature. Of course, from my personal perspective, Comrade Mu Shichou is the most suitable candidate, an old comrade, with a steady work style, and have teams with me and Deputy Director Jiang Haiyan, and they have a tacit understanding when they cooperate."

Zhou Tao needs to use himself to realize his influence on Wushan, and he also needs to use Zhou Tao's power.

My mother Shichou came to Wushan to see him, and she complained a lot every time. It seems that the conflict between him and Wang Tongdi, the county party secretary, is getting bigger and bigger. It is necessary to quell this dispute as soon as possible, otherwise something will happen sooner or later.

Now, whether it is Feng Guiping or Zhou Tao, whether it is just a new arrival, there may not be a suitable person to take action. Such a new county magistrate may also promote the candidates he likes.

If there is a chaos in Guangning in the future and then adjust its county party committee team, it is not something he himself or even Zhou Tao can intervene.

"Mother Shichou..." Zhou Tao pondered and slowly picked up the teacup.

Lu Zheng took out a few pages of the documents from his black briefcase and said, "There are two proposals I have prepared, and I am going to take them to the CPPCC Standing Committee for discussion. I want to listen to your opinions first."

Zhou Tao smiled and said, "I won't express my opinions on your CPPCC's proposals, right?"

"Our proposals are all false. Without the support of the Party Committee and the government, they are just a few pieces of paper." Lu Zheng said and handed the document to Zhou Tao, and Zhou Tao had to take it in his hand.

The black-headed word on the first page of the document is "Suggestions on Using Joint Ventures to Financing to Expand Dagang in Wushanxi District". Seeing the title, Zhou Tao's gaze immediately attracted.

Lu Zheng said: "Our Wushan is developing very fast. Now, the airport is being expanded and international flights are about to be opened. With South Korea and Japan, the lack of port throughput has become increasingly prominent and the country attaches great importance to it. However, the expansion is mainly what we traditionally call Wushan Port. But don't forget that Wangbeidian, which is more than 50 kilometers away from the city, has been inspected as the best deep-water port in the north since the Republic of China. Mr. Zhongshan once proposed an ambitious goal to build Wangbeidian into the largest number of Chinese ports such as New York Port, but it has been delayed for various reasons."

"Although in recent years, the two-term secretary of the country have been striving to build this port, and the relevant departments have inspected it and agreed to the project in principle, due to funding issues, the project has actually been put on hold. I think that we, Wushan, can raise funds and start the first phase of the project by ourselves."

"Two years ago, the State Council had a document. Look, it's in the bottom, appendix." Lu Zheng handed Zhou Tao the document pressed on the bottom page, and said: "From the central government, it agreed that foreign capital came in to help us build a port, but generally speaking, this kind of investment income is small and the effect is slow, so the central government has given various preferential conditions."

What Zhou Tao holds in his hand is the "Interim Provisions on the Preferential Treatment of Sino-foreign Joint Ventures in Construction of Ports and Terminals" issued by the State Council in 1985. In the provisions, foreign companies, enterprises or individuals, within the territory of the People's Republic of China, jointly invest and establish joint ventures with Chinese companies and enterprises to build ports and terminals. In addition to the applicable laws, regulations and rules of the joint ventures, preferential treatment will be given in accordance with the actual situation of large investment, long construction cycle and low profit margin of capital.

Joint ventures are allowed to have a longer joint venture period, which can exceed 30 years. The specific joint venture period is determined by consultation by the joint venture parties. After the joint venture period expires, if the joint venture parties agree and report to the Ministry of Foreign Economic and Trade of the People's Republic of China or its entrusted agency for approval, the joint venture period can also be extended. After the joint venture application and the local tax authorities review and approval by the Ministry of Finance of the People's Republic of China, enterprises can use the method of accelerated depreciation of fixed assets to recover investment. Joint ventures use funds within the total investment amount to import the necessary raw materials, loading and unloading equipment, transportation tools and other production facilities for construction terminals, and are exempt from tariffs and unified industrial and commercial taxes.

Wait and wait.

Lu Zheng continued: "I think that in Dagang, the West District, we can establish a port group company by lending abroad, issuing domestic fundraising construction bonds and other financing parts, and at the same time, we seek joint ventures with foreign investors to build and develop this port together."

Zhou Tao smiled and said, "The central government has been in the past two years, and no foreign capital has caused a big disturbance. How could foreigners be willing to help us with infrastructure?" Zhou Tao felt that Lu Zheng is good at all, with courage and responsibility, and a Lu family style, but he talked loudly and many things were too ideal. This may be a common problem for famous families.

Lu Zheng took a sip of tea and thought, "I should be sure to attract some funds, plus our financing and national support. At least, the first phase of the project is enough, and the port project cannot be rushed. Take it slowly. The stall will be expanded. Our Wushan economy will continue to develop, and the subsequent investment will naturally come."

Zhou Tao was stunned for a moment and looked at Lu Zheng: "Do you think you are sure to attract funds?"

Lu Zheng nodded slowly.

It is no problem to take out some of the money you earn in the international financial market. With the financing of the same international fund and Wushan’s own financing, the investment in the first phase should be no problem. What is the use of making this money? It is also time to come in handy. It is also used from the people of the people, but only from the people of the world and the Chinese people.

Of course, this is also considered a long-term investment. From the current perspective, the returns are a little smaller, but considering the inflation caused by the hot development of China's economy in the future and considering the development prospects of Wushan, this long-term investment is still extremely cost-effective.

A trace of heat flashed in Zhou Tao's eyes. Because of the Changming Group, Lu Zheng often deals with foreigners. Moreover, if he is not sure about such a big project, would he use it as a joke?
