Chapter 3720

This news was undoubtedly a shot in the arm, making Linshan City's economic development suddenly have a momentum of going further on the basis of a hundred feet. All kinds of investors suddenly flocked to Linshan City, and all kinds of talents also came to Linshan with Linshan City's talent introduction policy, looking for opportunities here.

The provincial government's decision also made many people look at Linshan City sideways. They were very unwilling. Why could Linshan City, with such a poor economic foundation, also become one of the two provincial sub-center cities?

Especially those cities whose GDP ranked above Linshan, they were very unconvinced. Why couldn't they get such treatment?

However, the provincial government's reasons were also very sufficient, leaving them speechless.

First, to become a provincial sub-center city, generally speaking, it must be more than 150 kilometers away from the provincial capital city, so that it can drive the economic development of remote areas in the province; second, it must have huge economic development potential. Linshan City introduced more than 30 billion in foreign capital in more than four months last year. Who has this ability? Whoever has this ability can also be given such treatment.

This reason was very strong, leaving the leaders of those cities speechless all of a sudden. Yes, who has this ability? It only took a few months to arrive in Linshan to introduce more than 30 billion in foreign investment. If given a year, they wouldn't have this ability either!

The news of Linshan City becoming a provincial sub-center city was also good news for Linshan College, which made it much easier for them to introduce talents. During this period, with the help of Professor Yang Yuanshen, they were constantly improving various conditions for their application to upgrade to a university.

Now one of the main conditions holding them back from upgrading to a university was that the number of professors in the school was insufficient, and the proportion was not enough. But as Linshan City became a provincial sub-center city, plus Professor Yang Yuanshen's huge influence, in the past few months, Linshan College had also introduced many talents, making Linshan College's faculty strength rapidly strengthened.

This made Xie Wenkuang beam with joy. With the joining of this big bull Yang Yuanshen, it seemed that Linshan College's upgrading to an undergraduate university was just around the corner.

This day, Xie Wenkuang also came to Su Xinghui's office, saying that Linshan College was preparing to apply to the Ministry of Education this year to upgrade to an undergraduate university, and the hope of success was quite large, because Yang Yuanshen's joining gave them a lot of guidance. Now various conditions of Linshan College could basically meet the requirements of the Ministry of Education.

Su Xinghui was also very gratified after hearing this. For Linshan, to build a provincial sub-center city, the improvement in culture, education, and health was also necessary. Therefore, being able to have an undergraduate university was, of course, the best.

The current Baozhou City was almost having a second undergraduate university, because Baozhou Normal University was said to be applying for upgrading to an undergraduate university this year, and it was said that the possibility of successful upgrading was very large, because Baozhou Normal University's development in recent years was also very rapid, so various conditions were also basically up to standard.

If Baozhou City had two undergraduate universities, and Linshan didn't have any, then the gap between the two provincial sub-center cities would become larger and larger.

Su Xinghui immediately stated that the Linshan Municipal Government would fully support the upgrading of Linshan College, especially those hardware facility conditions that needed further improvement. The Linshan Municipal Government could increase appropriations to let Linshan College upgrade its hardware facilities.

This made Xie Wenkuang also very happy. Linshan College now wanted to upgrade to an undergraduate university, and it did need further upgrades in some hardware facilities. Because Linshan City's past economic development was not satisfactory, the appropriations and investment for the school were relatively limited, making some hardware facilities of Linshan College also a bit backward.

Now, although their scores could barely meet the standard, if the municipal government could appropriate more funds to upgrade the hardware facilities well, then the possibility of successful upgrading would be even greater.

Xie Wenkuang then put forward the request to Su Xinghui to upgrade some of the school's scientific research facilities and instruments. The conditions of Linshan school in this regard were still relatively poor.

Su Xinghui asked Xie Wenkuang to submit a report to the municipal government. As long as it was a reasonable request, the municipal government would satisfy them. He asked Xie Wenkuang to treat the school's upgrading work as the most important work this year, only allowing success and not allowing failure, and the municipal government would be the strongest backing for Linshan College.
