Chapter 3210: Several Policies

So, was Su Xinghui a person who could do things? Of course he was. Wu Jianbai had always been very concerned about Baozhou's development. Although he hadn't been there himself, he often read reports about Baozhou and had exchanged views with Wang Guoxiong several times, because Wang Guoxiong had been to Baozhou twice.

Wu Jianbai was the Governor of Yanbei Province, and he naturally hoped to achieve some results in Yanbei Province. In Yanbei Province, the best development momentum now was Baozhou City. If he didn't pay attention to Baozhou City, who would he pay attention to?

And why did Baozhou City have such a good development momentum? Wu Jianbai naturally knew it was because of Su Xinghui. Wu Jianbai came to Yanbei Province a year later than Gan Yuru and a bit earlier than Su Xinghui. Baozhou's economy had always been lukewarm, but after Su Xinghui arrived, it had super-conventional development. How could Wu Jianbai not see it?

Therefore, he had always had a good impression of Su Xinghui, a person who could do things. The two had not communicated face-to-face before. Today's face-to-face communication made his impression of Su Xinghui even better. Su Xinghui spoke and acted straightforwardly without extra beating around the bush, which was something Wu Jianbai appreciated very much.

Since the temperaments matched, Wu Jianbai didn't beat around the bush either: "Comrade Xinghui, don't worry. This time there are policies, and they will be big policies. However, the Provincial Government is discussing and passing them, and it is estimated that it will take some time to be issued."

Su Xinghui said happily, "Then can you reveal the general content to me first?"

Wu Jianbai said readily, "Sure. These policies mainly have the following content. First is transportation. Baozhou City's current transportation situation is quite good. There are provincial roads and railways within the territory, and the expressway from Baozhou to the capital is also under construction. However, if it becomes a sub-center city, this transportation situation will not be enough to support a sub-center city, so we will prioritize Baozhou in the layout of expressways."

Wu Jianbai's words made Su Xinghui overjoyed. If a few more expressways could be added in Baozhou, Baozhou's transportation would be greatly improved, which would naturally be great good news for Baozhou's development.

Wu Jianbai said, "The second is preferential treatment in tax payments. The Provincial Government plans to reduce the proportion of tax payments from Baozhou, allowing you to keep more financial revenue for local construction."

This second point was also a very practical policy. If the province allowed Baozhou City to keep more financial revenue for local construction, then with Baozhou's current economic scale, Baozhou could have at least several hundred million more in construction funds every year. In this way, Baozhou's financial situation would be much more affluent, and the construction progress of Baozhou's new district would naturally be greatly accelerated.

Wu Jianbai continued, "The third is that the province will issue policies to support Baozhou City's high-tech industries, automobile industries, etc. Investors investing in these industries in Baozhou will receive policy support, and there will be considerable preferential treatment in taxes and subsidies."

This policy was also very practical. This could increase Baozhou's attractiveness to these industries, making these investors willing to settle in Baozhou. In this way, Baozhou City's construction would naturally be greatly accelerated, and it might even quickly form advantageous industries in high-tech aspects.

Wu Jianbai said, "And the province is expected to increase support for Baozhou University, giving some inclination in teaching staff, scientific research strength, and school running funds."

This last point was also very practical. Increasing support for Baozhou University could accelerate Baozhou University's pace toward a first-class university, increase Baozhou's foundation, and similarly increase Baozhou's strength—increasing Baozhou's soft power.

Su Xinghui said, "I know, Governor. Thank you!"

Wu Jianbai said, "Don't be in a hurry to thank me yet. These policies still need to be discussed and passed by the Provincial Government collectively. I alone cannot decide. Maybe some policies will not be passed by then; you must not blame me."

Su Xinghui said jokingly, "How is that possible? I am too late to thank you."

Although Wu Jianbai said so, Su Xinghui knew that since he could reveal these things to himself, he must have had the confidence to say them. Otherwise, a governor would absolutely not speak empty words. Therefore, these policies basically had no changes. On the contrary, there might be a few more by then.

Wu Jianbai nodded slightly and said with a smile, "I hope your Baozhou City can make good use of these policies, accelerate the pace of development, and drive the surrounding cities to develop together. Only then can it be considered shouldering the responsibilities of this sub-center city."

In this regard, Wu Jianbai's entrustment was the same as Gan Yuru's. Both hoped that Baozhou could shoulder the responsibilities of a sub-center city. After all, a sub-center city was of great importance to Yanbei Province, and this was also a decision made by the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government with great determination. If the predetermined goals were not reached, they would also be very passive.

Su Xinghui said solemnly, "Governor, please rest assured, our Baozhou City will definitely use our greatest efforts to shoulder the responsibilities of this sub-center city!"

Wu Jianbai nodded with satisfaction. Su Xinghui got up and said, "Governor, then I won't disturb you anymore. I'm leaving."

Wu Jianbai knew that Su Xinghui definitely couldn't sit still. Yes, he heard the policies he revealed to him, so he naturally had to go back early to make some preparations. Wu Jianbai said, "Fine, then I won't keep you."

After leaving Wu Jianbai's office, it was almost noon. Su Xinghui called several old friends in the provincial capital and invited them to have lunch together. Hearing that Su Xinghui had come to the provincial capital, they naturally agreed in one breath.

Having lunch with them, they all congratulated Su Xinghui, because they also knew that Baozhou becoming a sub-center city was a great good thing for Baozhou, and of course, it was also a great good thing for Su Xinghui.

During the meal, Su Xinghui also asked them to help him when the time came. They could really help Su Xinghui. For example, Gao Zhiyong could provide funds to Baozhou City, Hu Quanyou could incline toward Baozhou City in the construction of power facilities, and the other department heads could similarly incline toward Baozhou City in their respective areas of work.
