Chapter 3361
The achievements of these three industrial parks are truly astonishing. For instance, the enterprises in the Angao Industrial Park are primarily traditional industries, including steel, electrical appliances, and so on. Currently, the annual output value of the Angao Industrial Park has already reached several billion, and the number of enterprises here continues to grow, with the output value rising accordingly.
The Mabu Automotive Industrial Park is centered around the Ernest Automobile Manufacturing Company, having built an automotive industrial park with over a hundred enterprises. At present, the monthly output value exceeds one billion, with an annual output value of over ten billion.
As for the Weiqi Electronic Information Industrial Park, it is still in its initial stages, and the output value it can currently generate is not very high. However, its potential is astonishing, and in the future, it will become the largest electronic information industrial park in China.
Usually, Fang Zhonglin would be amazed just by seeing the GDP figures of these three industrial parks. Now, coming to inspect the site in person makes him even more invigorated. It is flourishing and full of vitality—a quality Fang Zhonglin rarely sees, and one that is highly infectious.
Regarding the urban construction work in the new Baozhou urban area, Fang Zhonglin also feels it is excellent. He thinks it is even better than the urban construction work in Yanzhong City. The planning for the urban construction here is very scientific and rational, and its implementation is powerful. This is the "Baozhou Speed" that surprises people.
In short, Fang Zhonglin is very satisfied with everything he has seen in Baozhou City. His subsequent inspections of surrounding cities like Xihe also left him very gratified. These cities have conducted rational industrial layouts around Baozhou City, allowing them to share resources reasonably, benefit each other, and develop together, carving out a development path with unique characteristics.
Before coming, Fang Zhonglin had originally thought that this Nanchang River Basin Economic Cooperation Zone should have, more or less, some "water" (exaggeration) in it. However, after seeing it for himself, he discovered that this economic cooperation zone indeed has some real substance and is very worthy of being promoted throughout Yanbei Province.
Fang Zhonglin immediately made up his mind to provide the Nanchang River Basin Economic Cooperation Zone with some better policies, allowing them to develop even better, to create a demonstration zone for Yanbei Province, and to drive the economic development of southern Yanbei Province.
Fang Zhonglin's high praise for the Nanchang River Basin Economic Cooperation Zone also made the leaders of the several cities here beam with joy. Since Governor Fang approves of such a cooperation model, they will naturally have to unite even more closely around Baozhou City in the future and establish even closer economic ties.
Fang Zhonglin returned to Yanzhong, but he left behind endless hope for the people here.
On this day, Su Xinghui was finally able to get off work and go home on time. As soon as he returned home, he discovered that the atmosphere in the house was a bit different; everyone seemed to be suppressing laughter. He asked, "What's wrong? Why is everyone so happy today?"
Niuniu really couldn't hold it in anymore. He unbuttoned his collar, revealing a bright red Young Pioneer scarf from inside, and said to Su Xinghui, "Dad, I joined the Young Pioneers today!"
Only then did Su Xinghui suddenly realize. No wonder everyone was so happy; it turned out Niuniu had joined the Young Pioneers. He couldn't help but think back to the day he joined; at that time, he was just as happy as Niuniu!
Su Xinghui asked, "Niuniu, you were in the first batch to join, right?"
Niuniu said proudly, "Yes, I was in the first batch. Today is the anniversary of the founding of the Young Pioneers, and I even became a squadron leader. During today's flag-raising ceremony, I even went up on stage to guard the flag."
Niuniu took out a two-stripe armband and handed it to Su Xinghui to look at. After looking at it, Su Xinghui said to Niuniu, "Niuniu, you are truly amazing!"
Niuniu's performance at school during this period had been very good. The strict training he received at home from a young age had shown its effects. He stood out at school like a crane among chickens, becoming one of the most excellent students. Therefore, although his becoming a squadron leader had a certain connection to Su Xinghui, it was also the result of his own efforts.
Because of this, Su Xinghui certainly wouldn't dampen his self-confidence; for children, it is still better to focus on encouragement.
Hearing his father's encouragement, Niuniu clearly became more confident. He told Su Xinghui some interesting things that happened at school today, and Su Xinghui listened with great interest until Lu Xiaoya brought out a table of steaming dishes and called the father and son to eat.
Niuniu had joined the Young Pioneers, which made Su Xinghui feel his son's growth. Yes, Niuniu was already six and a half years old; he was no longer that ignorant little child. He would eventually grow into a brave and excellent man, which was what made Su Xinghui most gratified.
Time flies like an arrow. In the blink of an eye, it was already late October, and the weather in Baozhou City was starting to get cold again, which meant the snow season was about to arrive once more.
The first two years after the Su family came to the north, they were a bit unaccustomed to the snow season here. However, now they had adapted very well. In any case, everyone would take off their coats as soon as they entered the door, and the house was as warm as spring. As long as they weren't active outdoors all day long, the snow season wasn't inconvenient at all.
Therefore, the Su family had become accustomed to the arrival of the snow season. Su Wenjun and Guo Suhua, the old couple, just like other ordinary northern elderly people, also started stocking up on Chinese cabbage, which is the most common vegetable in the north during winter. Besides Chinese cabbage, there were potatoes. These two vegetables would be the ones they ate the most during the winter.
In fact, in Baozhou now, even in the snow season, there are still many varieties of vegetables. Qian Qian Dapeng vegetables have been widely promoted in rural Baozhou, and all kinds of vegetables can be supplied to the market during the snow season.
This is also the "Vegetable Basket Project" that Su Xinghui focused on promoting after coming to Baozhou. Although Baozhou's economic development is fast, because Baozhou's climate is different from the south, the variety of vegetables in Baozhou in winter was still a bit monotonous. In order to improve the lives of the common people, besides developing industry, Su Xinghui also promoted greenhouse vegetables.
Now, the effect of these greenhouse vegetables can already be seen. Although the weather is already very cold, tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, bitter melons, long beans, eggplants, baby bok choy, and other vegetables can still be seen in the market, and their supply can be guaranteed.
Although Su Wenjun and Guo Suhua also stocked up on plenty of Chinese cabbage and potatoes, they would still buy some fresh vegetables every day to ensure the whole family could eat well. This made them exclaim that the winter in the north now is not much different from the south; any vegetable can be bought.
Of course, fresh vegetables on the market in such a season are still relatively expensive, but for the Su family, they could afford even the most expensive vegetables.
Su Xinghui also thought of many ways to control the prices of these out-of-season vegetables. On the whole, the prices of these vegetables were acceptable to the citizens. Now, the income of Baozhou citizens is generally much higher than before, so they can still afford to eat some out-of-season vegetables.
Everyone says that the snow season in Baozhou is much easier to get through than before, and this is all thanks to Mayor Su. If it weren't for Mayor Su coming to Baozhou, the lives of Baozhou people would definitely not be as good as they are now. Su Xinghui's prestige is truly at its zenith.
