Chapter 2141

Su Xinghui asked about the situation in the Economic Development Zone during this period, and Jiang Zhiqing answered one by one.

During this period, the Economic Development Zone was mainly carrying out land acquisition work. They incorporated the 15 square kilometers of Yangjialing Township into the administrative division of the Economic Development Zone, and the land acquisition compensation work was proceeding in an orderly manner.

The terrain of Yangjialing Township is mainly hilly. In the past, this area was one of the poorer areas in Chongjin County. The land in the east of Chongjin County is fertile, and the harvest of crops such as rice is quite good, while the hilly area in the west can only grow some crops such as corn and sweet potatoes, and the income is naturally not as high as in the east.

Therefore, hearing that the Economic Development Zone was going to acquire land and introduce enterprises, and give priority to recruiting workers from the common people within the scope of land acquisition, the common people here were very enthusiastic and very cooperative with the work of the Economic Development Zone Management Committee, and the land acquisition compensation work proceeded relatively smoothly.

However, new problems have arisen. Now more and more enterprises are coming to the Economic Development Zone to invest. Many of those who invest here, such as Hong Kong businessmen and Chinese businessmen, spontaneously let their friends come here to invest, and large companies such as Hou Group, Mi Group, Xie Group, etc., have also attracted many of their suppliers to come here to invest and become their supporting enterprises.

They can be said that one large enterprise has attracted a batch of supporting enterprises, forming a complete industrial chain, which makes the Economic Development Zone flourish. At present, more than 100 enterprises have been determined to invest.

With so many enterprises, many of them are not small in scale, and the county is also preparing to move some of the original state-owned and collective enterprises in the county to the Economic Development Zone. In this way, more than half of this 30-square-kilometer area has been occupied.

Such a situation is very rare for a county-level Economic Development Zone. Generally speaking, a county's Economic Development Zone has enough space of 10 or 20 square kilometers, because the enterprises they can introduce are quite limited, but Chongjin County is different. Now the enterprises coming here to invest are like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, one after another.

Therefore, Jiang Zhiqing hopes to expand the area of the Economic Development Zone again. He hopes to expand the area of the Economic Development Zone to 50 square kilometers, and the expanded area is still allocated from Yangjialing Township.

After Su Xinghui heard this situation, he pondered for a moment and nodded, "Okay, you can submit another application report, and the county will approve it for you as soon as possible."

Jiang Zhiqing nodded happily, "That's great, then I guess I don't have to worry this year."

Su Xinghui said, "Your Economic Development Zone has expanded a lot in area now, and manages so many enterprises. The annual output value is estimated to account for more than half of the county. Your level is a bit low. Let's do this, I am going to apply to the city to raise the level of your Economic Development Zone by one grade, to the deputy county level."

As soon as Su Xinghui said this, everyone present was surprised and happy. Su Xinghui had also talked about the upgrading of the Economic Development Zone before, but he had never said when to upgrade the Economic Development Zone, so everyone had already forgotten about this matter.

Today he came to the Economic Development Zone, but suddenly said that he wanted to upgrade the Economic Development Zone when everyone was not psychologically prepared. How could they not be surprised?

The upgrading of the Economic Development Zone to the deputy county level is beneficial to everyone present, especially Jiang Zhiqing. Last year, he was only a deputy bureau chief. At the end of last year, he became the director of the Economic Development Zone Management Committee and was promoted to the positive section level.

And if the Economic Development Zone really succeeds in upgrading this year, then Jiang Zhiqing will immediately become a deputy division-level cadre. This speed of promotion is comparable to Su Xinghui.

Others can also be promoted by one level, especially Tang Chaoxin. How many years has he been the director of the police station at the stock level? This time the Economic Development Zone is upgraded, he can naturally rise with the tide, and his level will be promoted to the deputy section level.

You know, the directors of several police stations in the county are at the deputy section level, and the director of the Chengguan Police Station is a member of the Party Group of the Public Security Bureau. Tang Chaoxin feels faceless when he goes to the county bureau to attend meetings.

Therefore, Tang Chaoxin was the first to shout, "County Magistrate, are you telling the truth?"

Su Xinghui looked at Tang Chaoxin with a smile and said, "Old Tang, do you think I'm telling a lie?"

Tang Chaoxin said, "How can that be? Everyone in our Chongjin County knows that County Magistrate Su is a hero who says one thing and means another, and absolutely cannot tell a lie. I'm just too surprised. If the Economic Development Zone is upgraded, I, a small stock-level cadre, can also become a deputy section-level cadre!"

Li Zhongwen and Pan Sheng also seemed to be unable to believe their ears. They are only in their twenties now. If the Economic Development Zone is upgraded, can't they also become deputy section-level cadres? This is really a huge surprise!

Su Xinghui smiled, "Old Tang, work hard, I believe that the deputy section-level cadre will not be your end."

Tang Chaoxin grinned and laughed. He suddenly remembered something and said to Jiang Zhiqing, "Director Jiang, then I will congratulate you in advance for becoming a deputy county-level leader."

Jiang Zhiqing did not look ecstatic. He still said very indifferently, "Old Tang, no matter what position you are in, it is the same work, so you don't need to congratulate me."

Jiang Zhiqing is not pretending. He has never been a fan of officials. If he were a fan of officials, then when Pang Xingjie was talking to him, he would not have openly clashed with Pang Xingjie. Didn't he know that if he offended the Provincial Party Secretary, his official career might come to an end?

Since he was not afraid of losing his official position last time, he would not be ecstatic because of promotion this time. When clashing with Pang Xingjie, he didn't expect Su Xinghui to be able to turn over, but Pang Xingjie left the position of Provincial Party Secretary.

Of course, it would be wrong to say that Jiang Zhiqing is not happy at all to be promoted, but Jiang Zhiqing does not want everyone to celebrate because of this, which feels like a monkey wearing a hat.

Su Xinghui also saw Jiang Zhiqing's reaction in his eyes. He still appreciated Jiang Zhiqing's temperament. Being able to remain calm at such a moment is not something many people can do. People with this temperament will definitely achieve great things in the future.

However, Su Xinghui did not despise Tang Chaoxin's surprise. Tang Chaoxin is almost forty years old, and he is only a stock-level cadre, and he has been a stock-level cadre for many years. Having the opportunity to be promoted is equivalent to turning over for him. This joy is beyond words.

Seeing that everyone was very happy, Su Xinghui was also very happy. He said to Jiang Zhiqing again, "Zhiqing, there is one more thing you have to pay attention to."

Jiang Zhiqing said, "What is it? Just say it."

Su Xinghui said, "It's like this, for those factories in the Economic Development Zone that have been shut down, if there are suitable buyers willing to buy them, you can help them bridge the gap, but the price must be reasonable, and you can't let people take advantage of the fire."

Li Zhongwen shouted, "County Magistrate, why do you want to do this? They treated you like that and almost destroyed you, and you are still so kind!"

Pan Sheng also said with some incomprehension, "Yes, County Magistrate, I don't think those people are worthy of sympathy."

Su Xinghui asked with a smile, "Do you all think I shouldn't do this?"

Tang Chaoxin said, "I think so too. We should be clear about grievances."

Su Xinghui said, "Being clear about grievances is the way of the Jianghu knights, but we are not knights, we are national cadres. National cadres should have more breadth of mind. Although Chen Changqiao and others are wrong, even if they are wrong, it should not be such a consequence. They have already borne the consequences they should bear, and we should still do what we should do."

Jiang Zhiqing nodded, "I think the County Magistrate is right. Chen Changqiao still has a wife, children, and parents at home, and the whole family depends on him for a living. But he will stay in prison for at least a few years this time. If his factory cannot be sold, how can his family live?"

Du Changfeng said, "It is indeed the case. If this factory cannot be sold at a reasonable price, this will always be an unstable factor."
