Yang Tiancheng almost thought he had heard something wrong, three years?!

Is this possible?

Even though he knew that the person in front of him was very good in Handu, but this was in Zhongzhou. Although he was unwilling to admit it, Yang Tiancheng also knew that the gap between Zhongzhou and Handu was quite obvious, and it was not that you could solve the problem with just one enthusiasm.

The gdp data cannot be blown out by blowing, so it must be carried by a real industry. The province is watching, and it is impossible for you to play tricks.

Especially for outsiders like Sha Zhengyang, people will stare at your performance. Not all leaders trust and recognize Sha Zhengyang’s previous performance, and many people are even waiting to see you joke.

After calming down for a moment, Yang Tiancheng calmed down, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Zhengyang, you said three years? I heard it right?"

Seeing Sha Zhengyang shaking his head with a smile on his lips, Yang Tiancheng said again: "I believe you should know the total GDP data of Changchun, Shijiazhuang and Jinan last year, right?"

"Of course." Sha Zhengyang nodded, "Changchun was about 115 billion last year, more than 20 billion more than Zhongzhou. It is not much different from Shijiazhuang and Jinan. It is probably a gap of about one billion, both of which are around 120 billion. Jinan is slightly higher, and the gap with Zhongzhou is close to 30 billion."

"Well, then do you know if we, Zhongzhou, need to catch up with Changchun within three years, needs to stay higher than Changchun?" Yang Tiancheng's face was a little cold.

"I know, I can roughly calculate it." Sha Zhengyang was also very calm, "Secretary Tiancheng, don't you think I'm talking nonsense or talking nonsense, right?"

Yang Tiancheng looked at Sha Zhengyang's face, "I believe you don't, but your answer still scared me, so I became more and more curious about how much you know about our Zhongzhou foundation. If you really don't know much, how dare you praise this Haikou? Or, do you really think that our Zhongzhou has infinite potential, and you can turn the world upside down at once?"

"Secretary Tiancheng, I am not that capable, but based on my general understanding of Zhongzhou, I think that if Zhongzhou can change from several aspects, a lot of potential can be discovered. As for the inaccurate use of the sentence "I made Zhongzhou earth-shaking" incorrectly, it should be under your leadership that I will assist you. Now, with the efforts of the cadres and the masses in the city, we can do it."

"Okay, please stop talking. If you have a good way or a good idea, the Zhongzhou Municipal Committee will of course spare no effort to support it. Whether it is offending people or harming the interests of a few people, as long as we can make our Zhongzhou economy take off, I, Yang Tiancheng, can lead the way and be this evil person, you don't have to worry!" Yang Tiancheng said bluntly: "As long as you can come up with a decent strategy."

Sha Zhengyang also said seriously: "I have some ideas, but now I don't know enough about the situation in Zhongzhou, so..."

"I know this." Yang Tiancheng glanced at Sha Zhengyang, "Zhengyang, I am heartbroken and telling it out, just because I think that since the central government has placed you in Zhongzhou, it must have considered you. Then don't hide it and shake it out. It doesn't matter if you are not sure about anything. Even if it's some discussion between the two of us."

As people talked about this, Sha Zhengyang naturally had nothing to say. And after contacting this way, he felt that Yang Tiancheng was really impatient, at least he did not show any other meaning at this time. It seemed that he really wanted to discuss the future development of Zhongzhou with himself.

"Well, okay, Secretary Tiancheng, where do you think we will start talking about it?" Sha Zhengyang was no longer modest.

"Well, this is just right. You have a general understanding of the situation in Zhongzhou, but I know that some of the measures in Handu have greatly improved the investment environment in Handu. I intend to follow the examples in Zhongzhou, and the intensity may be greater. What do you think?" Yang Tiancheng looked at Sha Zhengyang and said, "Or, what do you think are the biggest problems in Zhongzhou at present, and what are the specific aspects? What are the most urgent or should we solve and deal with immediately now?"

A series of questions demonstrates Yang Tiancheng's eagerness.

Sha Zhengyang pondered for a moment, and this question could not be answered casually. Yang Tiancheng was convinced and needed to cherish this opportunity even more. If he left the other party with an initial impression of talking nonsense, it would be bad.

"Secretary Tiancheng, I was thinking about this issue on the way to Zhongzhou. I have also learned about the current situation in Zhongzhou through some channels, including the investment environment, industrial foundation and dominant industrial development direction, infrastructure construction, labor composition and cultivation. I personally think that although the current situation in Zhongzhou is not very good, it has a gap with some cities along the coast and inland metropolis such as Handu, Chengdu, Wuhan, and Jiazhou, these gaps are not irreparable and catching up. I think for Zhongzhou, the most important problem that may need to be solved is the improvement of the investment environment and industrial layout and cultivation."

Without much nonsense, just go straight to the topic. What is the problem in Zhongzhou now? Why is there such a big gap with the nearby cities such as Wuhan, Handu and Chengdu? The situation of investment promotion is so poor. What is the crux of the problem? These problems must be clearly understood before the right medicine can be prescribed.

"Improving the investment environment and industrial layout and cultivation?" Yang Tiancheng was also pondering, "This is a mutually causal issue. So where do you think you should make a breakthrough first?"

"Improving the investment environment is not a matter of overnight success, but the expectations of the Central Committee and the Provincial Party Committee for our Zhongzhou City have always been on us. Therefore, we must find ways to improve the investment environment, such as how to form a systematic improvement in infrastructure construction, and we cannot make a hammer and a stick. Build this road today, build that bridge tomorrow, and lay pipelines on this area the day after tomorrow. This will not only be detrimental to the city's image, affect investors' perception, but also be also conducive to concentrating on major tasks."

Sha Zhengyang was not polite. It can be seen from the road that Zhongzhou urban area seems backward, old and messy in planning. This may have a lot to do with the poor financial situation in Zhongzhou.

The poor financial situation these days is nothing more than the weak tax base and the lack of land value. The former is a historical problem, the contribution of the secondary and tertiary industries is insufficient, while the latter is a slow development of the real estate industry, resulting in poor land use value, but this is even more a double-edged sword.

"What do you mean is to make a fuss about improving the investment environment?" Yang Tiancheng frowned slightly. The other party said that this is a big question, and it will not take effect overnight. Do you have to wait until the results are made in this regard before talking about other things?

"No, Secretary Tiancheng, you and I are facing great pressure now. You and I are both on the same boat. The provincial party committee and government are watching us. Similarly, the seven million ordinary people in Zhongzhou are also watching us. When I came, the secretary and senior officials talked to me. They directly mentioned that Zhongzhou should solve the problem of the driving role of the economic engine in the province in the agglomeration and development, and solve the problem of the driving role of the people in Zhongzhou and even the labor income increase in the province. I guess you must be urged by the province more tightly,..."

Sha Zhengyang looked at Yang Tiancheng, and Yang Tiancheng nodded with a wry smile.

"Then we can't wait until everything is ready before we can talk about development. The province will not give us so much time. So on the one hand, we do have to spend a lot of effort to improve the investment environment, but the more urgent and important issue is that we must first come up with one or two decent results and give an explanation to the province." Sha Zhengyang was calm.

Yang Tiancheng's eyes narrowed again and nodded thoughtfully: "Zhengyang, it seems that you have prepared for a long time. Well, I am both excited and looking forward to it now. Very good. Can you tell me in detail what aspects you are considering to make a breakthrough?"

"Secretary Tiancheng, what do you think is the biggest shortcoming in our Zhongzhou?" Sha Zhengyang asked a question.

"The lack of scientific research strength in education and scientific research, especially higher education and manufacturing, is the biggest hidden pain in our Zhongzhou." Yang Tiancheng said without hesitation.

Sha Zhengyang nodded. This is the biggest gap between Zhongzhou and Handu, Chengdu, Wuhan and even Xi'an, and it is not easy to make up for it. However, no matter how difficult it is, it must be made up for it. Otherwise, this gap will become more and more prominent. As the times develop, urban competition will become more and more fierce, and this gap will become a fatal flaw.

"Ordinary education can be solved and improved through various methods in our city, but higher education is difficult to solve by the city alone, so we must rely on external forces and rely on the central and central ministries and commissions." Sha Zhengyang paused, "I used to have some strategies to attract foreign universities to settle in Handu when I was in Handu. I have achieved some results, from last year to this year, the University of Science and Technology of China has established branches and graduate schools in Handu,..."

Yang Tiancheng obviously knew this situation and couldn't help but sigh: "Zhengyang, Zhengyang, what did you ask me to say about you? I love and hate you. If you came to our Zhongzhou two years earlier, would you say that the University of Science and Technology of China consider that our Zhongzhou will set up a branch?"

"Secretary Tiancheng, this University of Science and Technology branch is not as good as Hanhai Semiconductor, but it is indeed possible." Sha Zhengyang said honestly.

Yang Tiancheng shook his head and took his palms back again, sighing.

If the University of Science and Technology of China is really willing to go to Zhongzhou to set up a branch, it will be worth it even if Zhongzhou pays a great price.
