The expectations of the provincial party committee and government for Zhongzhou, or the partners Yang Tiancheng and Sha Zhengyang, are a bit high and anxious, and Sha Zhengyang has already felt this.

It is estimated that this should be under development pressure from surrounding cities such as Handu, Chengdu and Wuhan.

In the morning, Sha Zhengyang received a call from Executive Vice-President Zhou Jianchuan. Sha Zhengyang had never met Zhou Jianchuan before, but only knew about this person.

Zhou Jianchuan asked about some ideas on how to introduce educational resources on the phone. It seemed that Yang Tiancheng couldn't wait to exchange opinions with relevant leaders in the province, hoping to attract the attention and attention of the province.

After Sha Zhengyang discussed some views on how to attract higher education resources to Zhongzhou on the phone, Zhou Jianchuan invited Sha Zhengyang to come to him after the People's Congress to discuss the relevant work in detail. Sha Zhengyang also happily accepted the invitation.

Zhou Jianchuan is also a relatively practical young and strong person in Pingyuan Province. He served as mayor of Caizhou at the age of 37, as secretary of Caizhou Municipal Party Committee at the age of 40, and was transferred to secretary of Wanqiu Prefectural Committee at the age of 42. Two years later, in 2000, he served as member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee. In 2002, he served as member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and executive vice-president.

The Executive Vice Provincial Chief I made a phone call with him in such a short time, which also shows that the Pingyuan Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government did feel the pressure, which also means that Zhongzhou must take more violent actions in the next step to meet the expectations of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government.

"Mayor, this is my responsibility, and I have no choice but to do so, but the conditions and environment in Zhongzhou are somewhat different from those in Han, so you must be mentally prepared for this." Sha Zhengyang said this, and of course Lei Shiqun could only hold it up with his chest, "What kind of work do you have, just arrange it."

"Well, after the People's Congress, I will definitely have some ideas to implement. I need to be familiar with the current situation in the city, but you are different. You are very familiar with the situation in the city, and the province is also urging you tightly, so I have to consider some projects coming in and stabilize everyone's hearts first." Sha Zhengyang was straightforward, "I don't have much energy to connect, coordinate and implement, but this is another very critical step for us to open up the situation, so I hope you will carry this burden first."

Lei Shiqun's eyes lit up and he immediately reacted, "Mayor, are you saying that there will be a batch of projects coming in, and the scale will not be small? Then, in the Zhongyuan New District..."

"I don't seem to have much clue in the new district, and I don't see his specific ideas about the planning concept of the new district. I don't agree with simply positioning the new district as a manufacturing park, so these projects should not be placed in the new district for the time being. You can consider arranging in the suburbs of district and county development zones or industrial concentration zones..."

Lei Shiqun immediately realized from Sha Zhengyang's words that Sha Zhengyang was not very satisfied with the work of Zhongyuan New District or Xue and his party. He did not ask too much, but just nodded steadily: "Well, the conditions in some places in our suburban counties are still acceptable. If there is really a lack, our city can also solve this problem. Please rest assured by the mayor."

"Well, Secretary Tiancheng and I have exchanged opinions. Zhongzhou should be based on lofty and forward-looking plans, but the primary issue should still be based on solving practical problems. So I have considered some aspects. First, the introduction of higher education resources. Secretary Tiancheng is very interested in this. In the morning, the i-Master of Jianchuan Province also called me and hoped to implement and promote it as soon as possible. I plan to connect with the province as soon as the People's Congress ends. Then you and I go to the i-Master of Jianchuan Province to report. Which deputy mayor in the city is in charge of education now?"

Sha Zhengyang easily mobilized Lei Shiqun's interests with common topics.

Lei Shiqun immediately threw away some other thoughts and began to think about this issue: "Higher education resources? Mayor, are you saying that there are higher education institutions to move to our Zhongzhou?!"

"Moving in? Now this kind of opportunity is basically unlikely. Whoever will let the colleges and universities under his jurisdiction move away? Then the local leaders will be the sinners of the times unless it is arranged by the central government." Sha Zhengyang shook his head, "So we can only settle for the second best and seek some colleges and universities that are planning to expand enrollment and expand to implement new campuses and branches in our Zhongzhou."

Lei Shiqun hesitated for a moment, "Mayor, this is probably difficult, right? If it is an ordinary university, if it is a new campus or branch across provinces, there is basically no such possibility. But if it is a national key university, that is, a university directly under the Ministry of Education, then if we want to build new campuses and branches, we Zhongzhou will compete with the coastal cities and cities like Chengdu, Handu, and Wuhan, so we are afraid there is no advantage, right?"

"Shiqun, if there is no difficulty, then no one can do it?" Sha Zhengyang smiled and said, "It's just that it's difficult and challenging, so we will work hard. We have to go ahead and do the work of the Ministry of Education and universities themselves. In addition, the central government expects that some policies to support the construction of the central region will be released in the second half of the year or early next year. This is our biggest advantage. Of course, if our Zhongzhou can develop better hardware conditions in all aspects, I think we still have hope. We can also take advantage of other cities before they can react, and catch them off guard first..."

Lei Shiqun thought that Sha Zhengyang should be somewhat sure, or some targets were targeted, no wonder even Zhou Jianchuan had to call to inquire.

The resource channels that have been trained in the central government are indeed different. If so, it will be very good news for Zhongzhou.

"Mayor, if there is really hope, then I think the provinces and cities will do their best to support it. Our Zhongzhou is too lacking in resources." Lei Shiqun thought about it, "In fact, Zhongyuan New District can consider it in this regard. I think the resources of the cultural and educational sector can become a highlight of the Zhongyuan New District, as long as it is really possible to get such resources in."

Sha Zhengyang glanced at Lei Shiqun and praised in his heart. Lei Shiqun is a person who does practical things. He did not think about other things just because Xue and his team controlled the dominance of the Central Plains New District. Just this sentence can also show that this person is not a bad mind. No wonder cá qīngtai strongly recommends it to him.

"Well, where to put it, it mainly depends on the considerations of other universities, environment, infrastructure, popularity, and geographical location. All we have to consider is to provide them with sufficiently rich options, and the initiative is not with us." Sha Zhengyang shook his head, "In this kind of dialogue, we are in a passive disadvantage. If we want to improve, we can only put some effort into creating."

Lei Shiqun sighed, "Mayor, this is the gap between our Zhongzhou. The province is not very satisfied with the city. The main reason is that our Zhongzhou has not done environmental construction and industrial cultivation in recent years. Our plain is an inland poor province. Even Zhongzhou, as the capital, is not much better. It lacks industrial foundation and project investment. It is difficult to build an environment. Hardware requires funds, software needs to update thinking and expand its horizons. These are often interdependent and cause-and-effect, and lacks two things may form a vicious cycle. I have also tried to break through this dilemma in the past two years, but to be honest, the effect is not good. It is not that I don’t understand the truth, but that I have failed to catch it...."

"Take hardware facilities as an example, we all know that Zhongzhou is in a good location and is in the world. However, building a highway requires massive capital. Even if we can obtain some support from the province and the central government, we lack financial resources and the gap in the early stage is large. If you want to make up for it, you have to increase investment. Where can you get money? We lack pillar industries. Except for the food industry, I think Zhongzhou is still quite adept, and the others have either not formed a complete industrial chain cluster, or they still have shortcomings and shortcomings in competitiveness. Such a big city still has to shoulder the responsibility of its province to take us as the leader. Can you do without three or five decent pillar industries? It is definitely not possible, so how to cultivate it? In terms of talents and educational resources required for R&D, we are weak, in terms of industrial foundation, we are poor, there are few endogenous enterprises, and the difference between capital and coastal areas is even greater. What should we do?"

"Attracting foreign investment, it is easy to do, and everyone knows that the guests are going to have a strong family. The cities in coastal areas are worse than ours in all aspects. There are Chengdu in inland areas, Wuhan and Han are all over our heads. Why do they come to you? We are even worse than those who invest in soft environments. Our cadres are used to their current state. You can imagine the difficulty. Without some specific factors, it is difficult, or it is easy to turn into a gust of wind and then rebound quickly."

It was probably a long time since I found a suitable opportunity to pour out. Lei Shiqun had a sudden burst of smell and poured out some of his anger and dissatisfaction in his heart in one breath.

The province is not satisfied, the municipal party committee is not satisfied. Yang Tiancheng is a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and even serves as the i-director of the Municipal People's Congress. Of course, he is qualified to criticize the municipal government. Now the former mayor has left, and two deputy mayors have gone to the National People's Congress and the CPPCC. As the executive vice mayor, he has almost become the main responsible person in the current government team.

Of course, Lei Shiqun wanted to clear some topics in front of the new mayor. He would not shirk his own responsibilities, but he had to figure out that this was not the responsibility of a certain person, nor was it the responsibility of the municipal government. The municipal party committee has no responsibility? The province has no responsibility?
