Chapter 438 Two things
With the words in front of Chen Huai, Luo Qing and Feng Yumei felt a little relieved, so there was no need to worry about a great conspiracy waiting for them to fall in. Xiao Haomin asked his wife to go and add two pairs of bowls and chopsticks to Luo Qing and Feng Yumei, and sat down and talked while drinking.
Luo Qing was not busy drinking, and while being excited, he sat down and sorted out his thoughts a little, and said:
"The Yushan Lake Dam was built by mobilizing tens of thousands of migrant workers in the 1960s. It is the largest project in the history of Yushan. The completion of the Yushan Lake Reservoir not only created great benefits for the county in aquaculture, but also the Yushan Lake Hydropower Station is currently the county's money bag..."
The Yushan Lake Hydropower Station has an installed capacity of only 4,000 kilowatts, and the annual power generation is even one-two or thirty of that of Meixi Town Power Plant. However, the hydropower station uses hydropower to generate electricity, and the operating cost is very low.
The Yushan Lake Hydropower Station can now bring about tens of millions of income to the Yushan water conservancy and power system every year; however, in addition to removing some necessary costs, including the Yushan Lake aquaculture, the entire Yushan Lake Reservoir can share the benefits of relevant parties of about five or six million yuan.
These benefits are nothing in the eyes of large consortiums or in areas with abundant finances. However, in Yushan County, where local fiscal revenue is less than 20 million and per capita annual income is less than 1,000 yuan, it is a big cake that everyone wants to compete for.
Now the Yushan Lake Hydropower Station and the Yushan Lake Reservoir Management Station are two brands in a team, and are deputy section-level public institutions directly under the county water conservancy bureau.
Chen Huai read Luo Qing's report several times. He also took the opportunity to visit Yushan Lake before. He had contacted Luo Qing twice, but he had not had any in-depth talks. He still wanted to listen to Luo Qing discuss the current problems facing Yushan Lake with his own ears.
Luo Qing was also cautious and did not talk about some deeper issues, but talked about the current situation that the Yushan Lake Hydropower Station is currently facing, saying: "Yushan County is very poor, with low fiscal revenue, and the income of the hydropower station can make up a large part of the profit. The hydropower station generates the largest power generation during the water abundance period, which is more than ten times or even dozens of times that of the dry season. In order to create more profits, the hydropower station strives to store water, raise the water level, and generate as much power as possible during the water abundance period. At this time, a contradiction arises. Can the dam and the surrounding lake embankments bear such a high water level for a long time? Moreover, during the water abundance period in summer, Donghua often encounters typhoons passing through, which often brings unpredictable Torrential rain. Once the reservoir fails to release water in time and make enough storage capacity, it is very easy to exceed the Jingji water level when it encounters heavy rain. Also, due to the low fiscal revenue in the county, we expect the hydropower station to create more profits. Over the years, the investment in the reservoir is very small. The Yushan Lake Dam has been built for more than 30 years without a large-scale reinforcement. The daily maintenance funds are only small enough to make small fuss and cannot completely eliminate dangers. In this case, when we work in the hydropower station, we are frightened and can only pray that there will be no typhoons or heavy rainstorms. Otherwise, we cannot predict any dangers that the reservoir will collapse. The possibility of the Yushan Lake Dam collapse is not lacking..."
"It can't be so serious; if the Yushan Lake dam collapses, who can take on this responsibility? The county cannot ignore such a big risk, right?" Xiao Haomin's lover also sat next to him. When Luo Qing said this, he felt that he might be a little exaggerated. It is impossible that the problem is so serious that the county does not pay attention to it.
Chen Huai smiled, and it was not for Xiao Haomin's lover to interrupt. If everyone in the world had the string of "responsibility" in their hearts, the Shigang 12.9 explosion spray accident that killed thirteen people would not have happened.
He went to the Yushan Lake Hydropower Station in person. His major was not water conservancy or hydropower, but he could also see that there were some serious problems.
In addition to the problems of the Yushan Lake dam and lake embankment, there are also serious administrative problems.
There are hundreds of staff members in the Yushan Lake Hydropower Station, but the on-the-job rate is less than one-third. In addition to Luo Qing staying at his post for a long time, Chen Huai went to Yushan Lake twice during the working day, but he was unable to meet other webmasters.
In order to achieve success in reform and reform, in Shen Huai's view, it is necessary to overcome the serious bureaucracy in the current system as much as possible, so that those who are capable, responsible, and want to do things can go up, and those who are skilled in internal friction and drag down.
After hearing Luo Qing explain the problem of Yushan Lake Reservoir in detail, time passed without realizing it. Chen Huai looked at his watch and it was almost nine o'clock.
Xiao Haomin's lover also retrieved the child from Feng Yumei's house and forced him to go to bed. Chen Huai said: "Now there are people in the city who don't want me to do too many things, but when I come to Yushan, I think there are two things that I still have to do, but the way of doing it must be particular..."
Feng Yumei couldn't help listening to Chen Huai's words with all concentration.
She knew very well about the situation of the Yushan Lake Reservoir, but she also knew that there were too many people involved in Yushan County and too big the net, they could not afford to offend them, and they were not able to provoke them. She has suffered too much in recent years, and it is not easy for her and Luo Qing to get along. Without the impulse and passion of her youth, people will easily become realistic and secular. She even advised Luo Qing to resign from her public office and stay away from the Yushan Lake Reservoir. She hoped to save her family first. Some things were not something she worked hard, but she could solve them by perseverance. She no longer wanted to be a car with a mantis arm.
But Luo Qing has his persistence, and Feng Yumei can understand it.
Now, there is a strong figure like Chen Huai who is willing to take over and solve the problem of the Yushan Lake Reservoir. Feng Yumei is naturally looking forward to it. This can also help her husband relieve the responsibilities on his shoulders and hearts over the years.
But Feng Yumei didn't understand why there was a city that didn't want Chen Huai to do too much, nor did she understand how Chen Huai would solve these problems if Chen Huai didn't come forward directly, nor did she know what other thing Chen Huai wanted to do.
Feng Yumei didn't even understand how Xiao Haomin got on the line with Chen Huai.
Chen Huai did not reveal more details of the plan to Luo Qing. Feng Yumei knew it, but said, "Website Manager Luo, you go directly to the city tomorrow to find Song Xiaojun. Song Xiaojun is now the secretary of Deputy Mayor Yang Yuquan. I will give you his contact information. He will take you to meet Mayor Yang. After you arrive in the city, Mayor Yang will have arrangements..."
Chen Huai took out paper and pen from his briefcase, copied Song Xiaojun's contact to Luo Qing, and said to Feng Yumei: "Director Feng, the county industrial and commercial bureau owes me a report. You will help me keep an eye on it in the past two days to get it back. Webmaster Luo and Mayor Xiao need to do something, and we want to help them attract firepower. Another thing is that many problems in Yushan County need to be cleaned up well, otherwise many things will be greatly discounted if they want to do it."
****************** Chen Huai left quietly from the back door of Xiao Haomin's house. Feng Yumei and Luo Qing did not rush back. They still had many questions in their hearts. It was not convenient to ask Chen Huai directly, but they hoped to get the answer from Xiao Haomin.
Feng Yumei and Luo Qing did not leave. Xiao Haomin knew what they were thinking and spread his hands and said, "I have never had a conversation with County Mayor Chen. I don't know if I have ever mentioned to you that when I was in college, Gu Peiying, the current director of the Municipal Education Commission, was still teaching at Donghua Normal University. Some time ago, Director Gu called me over and said that County Mayor Chen might come to work in Yushan. It was not until then that time that I met County Mayor Chen for the first time."
In the mid-1990s, local officials were still mainly promoted from their hometowns, and cadre exchanges and avoidance were initially formed. It has not yet fully formed a climate, making the network between local officials particularly close.
Feng Yumei and Luo Qing are not familiar with the situation in the city, and they don’t know what the relationship between Gu Peiying, director of the Municipal Education Commission, and Chen Huai, but Xiao Haomin is always better than he has to put on the line with Chen Huai through his previous university tutor and Chen Huai.
Feng Yumei and Luo Qing were not good at asking about the good or bad rumors about Chen Huai.
Feng Yumei said to Xiao Haomin in a tentative tone: "County Chief Chen is really capable of attracting investment, and his ability to run a business is also first-class. Meigang and Meixi Town have developed very fast in the past two years. If Yushan County can develop a company like Meigang, many problems can be solved..."
Yushan County is poor.
The county also wanted to earn one or two million more from the Yushan Lake Hydropower Station to maintain such a high water level during the flood season, and ignore such a high water level during the flood season, which poses a threat to the dam itself. It is also because every place needs money to have no money to return it to the hydropower station to strengthen the maintenance of dams and lakes.
Feng Yumei and the others didn't know much about the city's affairs and struggles. They only knew that Chen Huai was offended by the municipal party secretary and was punished and kicked to Yushan to sit on the bench - this is probably what Chen Huai said, some people in the city don't want him to do things in Yushan - but they also knew that the steelmaking scale of Meixi Town could exceed one million tons in 1996. Not to mention other side income, the tax revenue brought by the direct output value of only 3 billion yuan may be nearly 200 million yuan.
Although Liang Zhenbao, Gao Yang and the Zhang Youcai family, who are entrenched in the local area, are very careful about the arrival of Chen Huai, for more cadres and the masses, as long as they know the rise of Meigang and Meixi Town, they are still looking forward to Chen Huai's appointment.
It’s pitiful to think about it. Even if Feng Yumei is promoted to deputy director of the county government office, the year-end bonus before the Spring Festival may be only 2,000 yuan.
When colleagues or superiors and subordinates give gifts, many people are still used to going to the vegetable market to cut a piece of meat and buy a fish to deliver it to the door; there is very little cash given in the officialdom of Yushan.
Some people even joke that the current corruption in Yushan County is still in the early stage of socialism, and after all, it is poverty.
The poorer you are, the more you fight. Countless people are staring at the interests of the big sesame, fighting for blood. But Yushan can really introduce a completely different development pattern like Meixi. In addition to the few leaders in the county, how many middle and lower-level cadres don’t want to try and get tens of thousands of dollars at a time?
It is just that the development of a new pattern is not an easy task. Liang Zhenbao, Gao Yang and the Zhang family, who have been rampant in Yushan for many years, can no longer bring more hope to everyone. Many people naturally hope that Chen Huai's taking office can bring some changes.
Xiao Haomin could see from Chen Huai's words and deeds that Chen Huai valued the backbone Luo Qing very much. Otherwise, it would be impossible to contact Luo Qing by contacting Luo Qing before he even understood that Luo Qing and Feng Yumei were actually husband and wife. Facing Feng Yumei and Luo Qing and his wife's questions, Xiao Haomin also told him calmly, saying: "What County Magistrate Chen said is two things he should do after he arrived in Yushan. One is to solve the problem of the Yushan Lake Reservoir, and the other is to build the Yupu Highway. One is the current urgent threat in Yushan County, and the other is that if Yushan wants to develop, a good entry and exit path must be laid on the foundation."
"I really need to build Xiapu Highway?" Feng Yumei worked for so many years, so she naturally would not imagine anything unrealistically, and would not expect Yushan County to change the poor and backward appearance at once. She knew how important it is to build Xiapu Highway well. Thinking of the pain of entering and leaving Yushan County, she couldn't help but sigh and said, "If you can raise three to five million yuan from other places and renovate Xiapu Highway well, many problems can be solved."
The total fiscal revenue of Yushan County is only 20 million, and the total fiscal expenditure per year is only about 30 million.
There are 600,000 people and 16 townships in the county. In addition to the Yupu Highway, which is more than 40 kilometers long, there are three to four hundred kilometers of roads in other counties and townships. The annual transportation infrastructure can only be withdrawn by less than two million yuan, and the amount that can be distributed to Yupu Highway is very small.
Nowadays, many counties hope to get three to five million from the city and build the Yupu Highway out of the county.
