"Mayor, what do you mean is that such a huge group will bring employment in other service industries?" Ji Zi'an was naturally not a mediocre person when he was able to become the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee. Although he performed poorly, it was caused by many factors, and he was still very sensitive to these things.

"This is inevitable." Sha Zhengyang nodded, "You can imagine that so many people produce, live, and live here. Their most basic consumption must be, such as catering. We don't talk about big hotels and restaurants, but I can't predict how many low-end snack shops, barbecue stalls, and side dishes are needed for the time being, but I think there will definitely be no small number,..."

"These stalls also require waiters, chefs, etc., who actually have low requirements for labor skills. They are most suitable for those in rural areas who are not young and cannot keep up with their learning skills, but they still have basic labor force and need to make a living and make money. Even if they solve hundreds, one thousand positions, it is not easy. It is equivalent to adding a stable wage income to hundreds or thousands of families every month. This income may be the most important support for them to support the elderly and raise children...."

Sha Zhengyang knew that what Ji Zian was most concerned about and paid attention to was the employment issues of the lowest level of labor force in the vast rural areas, especially those vulnerable groups who were in their thirties and forties, had a low level of education, and had obvious difficulties in re-learning labor skills.

Such a group often has old people and young people. When they need money, relying solely on the little harvest in the field can at most be a frugal life. However, if you want to make your life better, you need to increase your income from other channels. This type of ordinary service industry that does not require any special skills is the best source of income.

Ji Zian nodded heavily, and he also thought of this, but it was not as far away as Sha Zhengyang thought.

"With the entry of such industrial projects, it will inevitably bring a lot of construction. Industrialization drives urbanization, from factory construction to urbanization and then to the construction of municipal infrastructure required for urbanization to the construction of residential housing. This is a considerable process, and the construction industry will also become an indispensable pillar industry in the future development of our Zhongzhou industry,..."

Sha Zhengyang continued to depict.

"This industry is often the industry with the largest demand for primary labor. We all know that the threshold for basic labor skills in this industry is low, or that this demand has huge demand on the coast and in our Zhongzhou. This will allow our local rural surplus labor to complete employment and consumption locally, which is also a very important channel for increasing income."

Ji Zian nodded silently.

The situation depicted by Sha Zhengyang may indeed be a reality in the future. For these surplus laborers in the countryside, those young people are actually relatively better, they are free of worries and learn things quickly. When they go to coastal areas, no matter which type of enterprises they are, they can start on the road in two or three months, become experienced in a year or two, and they can adapt much more to the external environment.

But for those groups in their thirties to fifties, it is not that easy to learn industrial operation skills.

To let this group go out to work in coastal areas, it will also bring about many social problems.

Whether it is the elderly who are empty nests at home or left-behind children, these problems will arise, especially when these children and adolescents do not receive care and education from their parents for many years, their growth will definitely be affected. This involves a considerable group of the next generation in the future, which cannot be ignored.

But due to life, they had to leave their hometowns and leave their children to work and earn money. If they could create an opportunity for them to work locally, or within the province, then this would be much better.

"Solving the problem of the surplus rural labor force in Zhongzhou and even the plain province is the top priority. Well, the main goal in our city is of course the problem of Zhongzhou City, but the province hopes that Zhongzhou will assume its greater responsibilities and share the responsibilities and pressure for the province. The amount of surplus rural labor in our province is too large, and a considerable proportion can only flow to Beijing, Tianjin, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta. The provincial party committee and government hope that in our Zhongzhou can quickly build a manufacturing base that can absorb a large amount of labor. At the same time, relying on this manufacturing base, we should steadily advance the Central Plains urban economic circle. This is actually an enlarged version of our Zhongzhou Ring Economic Belt...."

Ji Zian also laughed, "The province is whipping the fast bull. Who made our Zhongzhou the provincial capital? However, through this time BYD's investment promotion, I went to Guangdong several times. In addition to negotiating and contacting BYD, I also contacted many companies in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Dongguan, Foshan, Zhongshan and Zhuhai. I also inspected the development environment there. Compared with the gap and advantages between our Zhongzhou and there, I feel very touched."

Sha Zhengyang didn't expect that Ji Zi'an would be so proactive after being mobilized. He was quite happy and immediately asked: "Let me tell me what the gap is between our Zhongzhou and them, what are our advantages, and how to learn from each other's strengths or make up for your strengths or avoid your weaknesses?"

"The gap is very large, and it is hard to describe it. But the biggest problem is that they have formed a relatively perfect model. The contents of this model include a complete industrial chain, a rich and complete system, and a smooth channel for import and export. This will become more obvious after joining WT, and this advantage will become more and more prominent as time goes by. In addition, from the government level, a loose and thoughtful service system and an efficient and powerful work style are also an important part of building such a comprehensive model."

It is obvious that Ji Zian also spent some time investigating and making a very pertinent statement.

"Then we have a big gap in these aspects, but we can catch up. What is our advantage?" Sha Zhengyang continued to ask.

"Salary advantages, land advantages, and power advantages, these are the points I can find. The power advantages should be phased. I estimate that as the country's investment in electricity increases, this advantage may not exist in three to five years. The salary and land advantages will probably last longer. After all, this objective condition is there." Ji Zian also seemed a little heavy. "The problem is that we have so few advantages but we have so many disadvantages. How can we make up for it and catch up? If the service system and work style are at our government level, we can work hard to improve and improve, but the industrial chain, róng zī system, and import and export channels? I think these factors are really a bit tricky."

"Lao Ji, my view is a bit different from you." Sha Zhengyang shook his head, "In my opinion, as our investment promotion series of measures and projects are in place, all links of the entire industrial chain will come in profit-seeking. This is determined by production demand and market economy. Of course, there must be another process,..."

"There are indeed more problems in the róng zī system. Our inland areas are relatively conservative and seem more cautious in implementing policies. Lao Lei and I have also considered this. For example, we will hold a promotion and matching meeting in Beijing and Shanghai, mainly for foreign banks and joint-stock banks. We welcome them to settle in Zhongzhou and introduce our industrial development and policies. In addition, we also plan to form Zhongzhou Bank. Well, a bank that mainly serves the development of local small and medium-sized enterprises in Zhongzhou. For example, we will connect with some venture capital funds and encourage them to come to Zhongzhou to land...."

"As for the import and export channels, I think the distance is not a problem. The key lies in the degree of thoughtfulness and meticulousness of our work. The transportation cost may have some impact, but it is offset by our salary level and the advantages brought by land costs. I think the gap is not big, but I think the real problem is our own service style, deep-rooted official-oriented thinking, habitual style of eating and taking cues, inertial movements of dragging one and grinding one and grinding one, and superior manager thinking. This is not a special event or two, nor can it be completely reversed by adjusting a few leading cadres. It takes one year, two years or even three or five years to achieve certain results. The problem is that during this period, the coastal areas are also developing and innovating. We are very tight and the pressure is greater."

Ji Zian had to admit that it was no accident that Sha Zhengyang Energy became the mayor.

The other party has considered these issues that he is still worried about and has even begun to look for countermeasures, and his foothold and focus are different from his own.

Giving Ji Zi'an the feeling that Sha Zhengyang is sometimes considering the problem with the thinking of a high-ranking city official. For example, he looked at the three aspects he was worried about lightly, but instead attached special importance to the service system and work style issues that he thought were relatively easy to solve, and thought it was more difficult to solve completely, which touched him more.

Perhaps this is the gap. Before Sha Zhengyang came, Ji Zian was very dissatisfied with the working environment of Zhongzhou City, dissatisfied with Yang Tiancheng, Tan Zhenguo, Xue and his party, and even more dissatisfied with the former mayor. He felt that the other party was incompetent and felt that it was a bit complaining about the world.

He even thought about asking for a report like the provincial party committee to request a transfer, and was unwilling to continue working in Zhongzhou. But now, after Sha Zhengyang came, he felt a change that arises from the inside, and this change is still growing, which greatly encouraged and confident.
