Zhou Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and a curvature appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he was smiling, and he seemed to be weighing something, and said slowly: "Sha Zhengyang?"

Cheng Song was not surprised that Zhou Yuanwang knew Sha Zhengyang. After all, Sha Zhengyang was so young, he was a deputy department-level cadre. He was definitely a sensible figure in Hanchuan Province. Moreover, the organization and arrangement of the above-mentioned cadres itself contains a deep meaning. These above-mentioned cadres are basically registered by the Organization Department of the Central Committee and are the key reserve cadres to be trained.

Especially when he is less than thirty years old, he is almost the main force of the second echelon, and he also faithfully practices the principle of youth and professionalism of cadres.

"Yes, Sha Zhengyang, Secretary Zhou should know him well, right?" Cheng Song also laughed, "So when I learned that the organization arranged for me to work in Hanchuan, I was very happy, because I think the thinking, style, and quality of Hanchuan cadres should be very high. In the previous batch, Su Lunkang, who came from Hanchuan, was in our Development Planning Commission, and performed very well. The committee had a high evaluation, but I didn't expect that Sha Zhengyang, who was on the Central Large Enterprise Working Committee, was even more amazing. He was younger and had more outstanding abilities in all aspects. So I always felt that with such a group of cadres in Hanchuan, he could definitely make a difference..."

I didn't say anything anymore, but Zhou Yuanwang understood that Cheng Song must have high expectations for the overall quality of Hanchuan cadres because of the performance of these two cadres. After that, he found that this was not the case and felt a little disappointed.

This is also normal. When selecting cadres who are trained for training, they must be selected by selecting the best roles from thousands of people. Naturally, they feel very good. But when you come as a member of Hanchuan and then go down to the bottom to contact the most real side, all kinds of unsatisfactory things will naturally appear.

"Old Cheng, we must look at things in two. Over the years, we Hanchuan have focused on cultivating young cadres, and have achieved some results. Su Lunkang and Sha Zhengyang mentioned should be the best among them. However, in terms of the overall quality of our Hanchuan cadres, especially in the ideological concepts of opening up reform and the concept of innovative development, there is still a clear gap compared with local cadres such as Guangdong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. This is also a major issue that our provincial party committee is trying to solve. How to break the conservative and narrow side of their thinking and let them grow and improve in the tide of reform and opening up has always been a problem we have a serious study. I also believe that there is no problem with the overall quality of our Hanchuan cadres. The key is to get rid of the original thinking pattern and truly understand and feel the essence of the policy of reform and opening up."

Zhou Yuanwang's words were very high, and Cheng Song had to accept it. Of course, this admiration did not mean that he fully agreed with the other party's views, but that the other party's judgment and opinions from the height of a provincial senior official were pertinent and feasible, and they must follow this path.

Can you say that the Hanchuan cadres’ thoughts are too backward and conservative, and they cannot be improved in the short term. The Hanchuan economy can only follow the coastal areas and never have a chance to turn things around?

"Secretary Zhou is right. Our provincial party committee and government do need to make great determination to solve this problem, and solving this problem is not a matter of overnight success. We need to make persistent efforts to change from top to bottom, from thinking concepts to details." Cheng Song echoed.

"Well, you can understand Lao Cheng. Let's go back to the original topic. Since the central government attaches so much importance to the macro-plan for building strategic emerging industries and key core industries, it should also support and support from multiple levels. Do you think our Hanchuan has advantages in these aspects? Or, what measures should we take to gain advantages and allow us to take a leading position in economic work?"

Zhou Yuanwang is more concerned about this issue. As the top leader of Hanchuan, he is very sensitive to the grand strategy in this regard. The coverage of strategic emerging industries and key core industries is quite large. In the long run, the industries that may be affected are even more amazing. Hanchuan needs to lead, what should he do?

"Secretary Zhou, I just said that the advantages of Hanchuan are still very obvious. It can be said that in addition to Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu and Liaoning, in terms of the foundation and strength of the industrial field, our Hanchuan is not inferior to other provinces, and is even the best in the inland areas. However, this only refers to our industrial categories and basic strength. With the continuous improvement of economic development, the wave of globalization is coming, and the standards and thresholds of industrialization are also increasing. In fact, many people may have noticed this point. The situation of traditional industrial manufacturing is becoming increasingly severe, and the survival crisis is becoming increasingly serious...."

Cheng Song finally got to the topic he wanted. He also knew that Zhou Yuanwang was as familiar with economic work, so he said it was easy.

"Taking the electronics, machine tools and materials industries as an example, although our domestic electronics industry is not slow to develop, the gap is still widening compared with Japan and South Korea and other countries. With its solid accumulation in the 1980s and the large investment in the chaebol model, Japan has always held a monopoly position in many sub-sectors of the electronics industry. South Korea has seized the advantage of latecomer, especially with consortiums such as Samsung and Hyundai, which are committed to the electronics industry and keeping up with the development trend of the times. It can be said that Japan and South Korea are still unable to compare with the United States in innovation and basic research in high-end fields. It can be said that Europe has been left behind in the electronics industry,..."

"The machine tool industry, the development trend based on automation and CNC is becoming an irreversible trend. High precision and high automation are constantly being overcome, and the obstacles that were originally regarded as insurmountable in the machine tool field are constantly being overcome. The United States, Japan and Germany have already occupied a monopoly position in the high-end machine tool industry. If we do not increase R&D investment in these aspects, we may be eliminated, which is a high probability event,..."

"Similarly, in the materials industry, our gap is also widening, and the status of the United States, Japan and Germany is unshakable. The backwardness of the materials industry directly leads to many of our industries becoming clever and hard to cook without rice. If the materials industry cannot be built, many industries have become rootless and water without source, such as the aviation industry, aerospace industry, electronics industry, and high-end equipment manufacturing industry. They are very dependent on this aspect. From this perspective, they have become a situation of burning out... "

"We are planning to be related to various fields that may be identified as emerging strategic industries and key core industries. In other words, we all occupy a considerable position in these industries. The construction of the third line has laid a good foundation for us. As a key place connecting the east and west, Han City has been an industrial center since the Republic of China, so we have great advantages in the key core industries mentioned in the report,..."

Before Cheng Song finished speaking, Zhou Yuanwang had already followed: "What about the strategic emerging industries? Do we have no advantages?"

"Secretary Zhou, because it is an emerging industry, many of them are still in the stage of brewing and starting, or they have just started. In Sha Zhengyang's words, at this time, no one has any advantages and no one has any disadvantages. Perhaps this is who can realize first, seize the opportunity first, and whoever takes the initiative will win this advantage!"

"Whoever can realize first, seize the opportunity first, and whoever takes the initiative will win this advantage?" Zhou Yuanwang chewed these words repeatedly and nodded heavily.

Isn’t the coastal areas taking the lead in reform and opening up, and then becoming a step-by-step lead? Emerging industries like this should also be similar. Hanchuan has a good industrial foundation, especially Han City. So if we can take the lead in this regard and start working first, can we become a highland for emerging industries and lead step-by-step lead?

"Lao Cheng, what you said makes sense. Emerging industries are indeed in the beginning stage, but the problem is that Hanchuan is also in the stage of no foundation. How do you think we need to win this opportunity?" Zhou Yuanwang waved his hand strongly, "I mean to win the opportunity from the macro planning stage and seize this opportunity from the perspective of institutional support. Have you considered it?"

Cheng Song was stunned and was also overjoyed. It seemed that this person was also moved by his words. This was the result he wanted.

"Secretary Zhou, of course I have thought that the central government is introducing policies in this regard, and it may even have to go up to the top level to make decisions, so I estimate that it will take a month or two to come out at the earliest. It is even very likely that such a thing may be available at the National Economic Work Conference at the end of the year. I think maybe our Hanchuan Province can make a breakthrough and seize the initiative based on the actual situation of our Hanchuan." Cheng Song pursed his lips, twisted his thumb and index finger, "So we quickly came up with a simple and easy-to-use preliminary plan, move first, and consider other things."

"Well, it seems that Lao Cheng, you are already confident. Why do you want to call Sha Zhengyang back and serve as your helper?" Zhou Yuanwang smiled, but then frowned, "Some time ago, Qin Du Zhu Fenghou came to me, hoping that Sha Zhengyang would let Qin Du go to work. He might have also found Yun Xiang and Xiangdong, and he was also very anxious."

"What about the reason?" Cheng Song disagreed. This was incomparable.

"Old Zhu believes that Qindu is in a bad situation now, especially in the transformation of traditional industries. He wants to break the curse of resource-based cities. I hope to start earlier. He talked to me. I think he is very forward-looking, and he also proposed that he needs some young people with pioneering thinking and innovative ideas to help him. I still agree with it." Zhou Yuanwang pondered.
