Chapter 4017

Xin Jing said, "It's fine. I hired a nanny who lives at home to take care of the elderly, so I have hot meals to eat when I get home."

Hearing Xin Jing's words, Su Xinghui finally felt at ease. He also recalled the days when the two of them were partners, and his heart felt warm. He said, "Then I must congratulate you once again!"

Xin Jing said, "Congratulate me for what? If it weren't for you, how could I have reached this day? Therefore, this Standing Committee seat was completely given to me by you."

Xin Jing's words were indeed sincere. Before Su Xinghui went to Baozhou, she was just an ordinary vice mayor. Her work ability was acceptable, but she had little work experience. Although she was still young, because she had no background, there was not much room for advancement.

It was precisely because Su Xinghui went to Baozhou that Baozhou developed rapidly. While by Su Xinghui's side, Xin Jing also learned many work methods and accumulated a lot of work experience, which is why she has now grown into a senior cadre capable of handling matters independently.

And the fact that Xin Jing could serve as a member of the Provincial Party Standing Committee is truly entirely due to Su Xinghui's contribution. If Su Xinghui hadn't developed Baozhou to its current state, what qualifications would Xin Jing have to become a member of the Provincial Party Standing Committee?

Therefore, Xin Jing maintained a calm mindset regarding this Provincial Party Standing Committee seat. What she cared about more was Su Xinghui's opinion. It could be said that she took this Provincial Party Standing Committee seat for Su Xinghui's sake; if Su Xinghui was happy, she was happy too.

Su Xinghui said, "You can't say it like that. Isn't your current work ability also very strong? In the past two years, not only has Baozhou's GDP ranking not been overtaken by Yanzhong, but the gap between the two has actually grown wider. This shows that your work ability is also getting stronger and stronger."

The GDP gap between Baozhou and Yanzhong City is indeed growing wider now. Besides the fact that the production capacity of the large enterprises introduced by Baozhou City previously is gradually being realized, Xin Jing is not without credit.

In the past two years, Xin Jing has also introduced many investors and invested in the construction of many enterprises. Enterprises like the Tongbao Group are now expanding their scale quite rapidly, which is inseparable from Baozhou City's support for them. These are all Xin Jing's achievements, and Su Xinghui has been paying attention to all of this.

Hearing Su Xinghui's affirmation, Xin Jing felt sweet inside. Although she also knew that anything between her and Su Xinghui was impossible, and she was unwilling to do the kind of thing that destroys someone else's family, just one affirmation or one acknowledgment from Su Xinghui was enough to make Xin Jing happy for a whole day.

Xin Jing said, "Thank you, Xinghui. I am very happy."

Hearing the strange tone in Xin Jing's voice, Su Xinghui's heart skipped a beat again. He hurriedly said with a smile, "Alright then, I won't talk to you for now. I have to go attend an event."

Xin Jing said gently, like a wife, "Alright, go ahead. You must take care of your health."

Yu Chunchu called Su Xinghui; he also had some questions he wanted to consult Su Xinghui about.

Yu Chunchu said on the phone, "Xinghui, regarding the recent Central spirit, it says we must vigorously develop high-end manufacturing and high-tech industries, complete industrial upgrading, and create high-quality GDP. However, most of Chengjiang City is still traditional manufacturing, and many are small and micro-enterprises. Are all these enterprises to be eliminated?"

The current Yu Chunchu is already the mayor of Chengjiang City. In Jiangyou Province, he is also a dazzling new political star, and under his governance, Chengjiang City's development momentum is also very good. In particular, Hanhai Technology built a solar photovoltaic equipment manufacturing base in Chengjiang City, and Chengjiang City, relying on this manufacturing base of Hanhai Technology, also built a new energy industrial park, which is developing quite well now.

However, Chengjiang City's manufacturing is mainly traditional manufacturing, and there are quite a few that are "low-quality GDP" with relatively high energy consumption. Therefore, this caused Yu Chunchu some confusion, and he could only call to consult Su Xinghui.

Su Xinghui said, "Chunchu, actually, to complete industrial upgrading, it doesn't necessarily mean all those small and micro-enterprises must be eliminated. Some small and micro-enterprises with low energy consumption and no serious environmental pollution can also continue to survive. These small and micro-enterprises are the main force for employment. And those backward production capacities don't necessarily all have to be eliminated; the government can help them carry out technical transformation and industrial upgrading."

Actually, Su Xinghui knew that this confusion of Yu Chunchu's was also the confusion of many local government leaders. What is high-quality GDP? Are all small and micro-enterprises backward production capacity? Must backward production capacity all be eliminated?

The emergence of this kind of confusion did not surprise Su Xinghui, but in reality, this is also a misconception.

Backward production capacity is not equal to small and micro-enterprises. Many large chemical plants and cement plants, although large in scale, have high energy consumption, serious pollution, and backward production processes; these are also backward production capacities.

And small and micro-enterprises are also not equal to backward production capacity. Many small and micro-enterprises, although small in scale and traditional manufacturing, are full of innovative spirit, have low energy consumption, meet pollution standards, and have high efficiency. This cannot be equated with backward production capacity and can also be considered high-quality GDP.

Even for enterprises with backward production capacity, one cannot simply eliminate them all with a single stroke. The truly correct approach should be for the government to use policies to help them carry out technological transformation, turning backward production capacity into advanced production capacity, and transforming low-quality GDP into high-quality GDP. Through such a process, industrial upgrading can be completed.

During this process, the policies the government can implement include tax incentives, assistance with project renovation funds, preferential financing interest rates, and so on. In this way, the government does not need to provide too much capital to help enterprises carry out technological transformation.

Of course, if such backward production capacity cannot take advantage of the favorable wind of policy to complete industrial upgrading, then they can only be washed away by the great waves and eliminated. This is the natural law of survival of the fittest and is unavoidable. What the government needs to do is to try its best to help them complete industrial upgrading.
