Chapter 906

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Yes, being able to participate in this great feat can be considered a fortunate thing!"

Hou Guangbi smiled, "Are you mobilizing me to participate in this great feat too?"

Su Xinghui said, "You could say that. In fact, China is currently the region with the most dynamic economy in the world. In recent years, China's GDP growth rate has exceeded ten percent, which is the highest among the major countries in the world. What concept is this? This means that as long as it develops at this speed for a few more years, China's total economic volume will have a qualitative change, and surpassing developed countries like France is only a matter of time."

Hou Guangbi took a sip of tea and looked at Su Xinghui with great interest.

Su Xinghui continued, "Let's talk about the economy of Shangjun County. In recent years, the GDP growth rate of Shangjun County has been around thirty percent, which is outstanding in the entire Hudong Province. Therefore, the economy of Shangjun County can be said to be the most dynamic in the entire Hudong Province and even the entire Central China region. Investing in Shangjun County will definitely yield generous returns."

"Thirty percent?" Hou Guangbi was somewhat moved, "Are you telling the truth?"

Su Xinghui said, "This is an official figure. If you don't believe these figures on paper, you can also go to the scene to take a look. As the saying goes, seeing is believing."

Hou Guangbi said, "Then where are you planning to take me to take a look tomorrow?"

Su Xinghui said, "Let's do this. Tomorrow I will take you to the first stop where I started working after graduating from university, Meng Hu Ling Township."

"Meng Hu Ling Township?" Hou Guangbi said, "Is that the most remote township in Shangjun County? The township in the far west of the county seat, which is all mountainous?"

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Yes, that's the place."

Hou Guangbi said, "How did your first job end up there? I visited there when I was young, and it can be described in four words: poor and remote."

Su Xinghui smiled, "Grandpa Hou, it's not poor and remote there anymore."

Hou Guangbi asked with great interest, "What does it look like there now? Tell me about it."

Su Xinghui said, "Grandpa Hou, you have to allow me to keep you in suspense. What it looks like there now, you will know when you go to see it tomorrow."

Hou Guangbi laughed loudly, "You're keeping me in suspense? Alright, then we'll go to Meng Hu Ling tomorrow. I want to see with my own eyes what it has become now."

Su Xinghui said, "Then please rest early. We will come to pick you up tomorrow morning!"

Su Xinghui left Zhuangyuan Lane and was walking on the way home when suddenly his pager went off. He took out the pager and saw it was a call from Zhang Kaishan's home. He estimated that Zhang Kaishan had something to find him for, so he went to Zhang Kaishan's home.

Zhang Kaishan's expression was very solemn. Seeing Su Xinghui arrive, he took Su Xinghui to Comrade Ji Tao's home.

Comrade Ji Tao said, "Little Su, you're here. Tonight, a leader from the city called me."

Su Xinghui's thoughts turned very quickly, "Did the province put pressure on the city?"

Comrade Ji Tao nodded and said, "Yes. This leader criticized the county, saying that the county doesn't consider the overall situation."

Su Xinghui smiled, "Did he mention my name?"

Comrade Ji Tao said, "You're still smiling after he mentioned your name? Don't you have any pressure at all?"

Su Xinghui said, "Of course I have pressure, but you can't have a mournful face just because you have pressure, right? Wouldn't the pressure be even greater then?"

Su Xinghui wasn't surprised at all that the province put pressure on the city. The officialdom in China is like this, one level pressing another. He considered himself an exception, but the city definitely couldn't withstand this pressure. Once the city couldn't withstand the pressure, it naturally had to put pressure on the county.

Comrade Ji Tao pointed at him and smiled, "You Little Su, your heart is really broad."

Su Xinghui said, "Then what did this leader say about me?"

Comrade Ji Tao said, "What else could he say about you? He said you don't respect leaders, don't consider the overall situation, and love to show off individual heroism."

Su Xinghui smiled, "Secretary Ji, you have to testify for me. I respect leaders very much!"

Comrade Ji Tao laughed loudly, "You are so cheeky even in front of me, the County Committee Secretary. And you call this respecting leaders!"

Hearing the words of the two, Zhang Kaishan's solemn face couldn't help but reveal a smile.

Su Xinghui said, "Then did this leader give any instructions? What does he want us to do?"

Comrade Ji Tao said, "He just told me about the gap between Shangjun County and Jiangcheng in terms of investment environment, and asked us in Shangjun County to recognize the facts and not have any illusions."

Su Xinghui said, "He is a leader of Yulin City, after all. Shangjun County is also under Yulin City, right? How can he speak like this?"

Comrade Ji Tao said, "This leader said that this is for the sake of the overall situation and for the interests of the entire Hudong Province."

Su Xinghui said, "Isn't this selling out the interests of our Shangjun County to please the province?"

Comrade Ji Tao said, "Little Su, don't say things like this. Otherwise, if others hear it, they will say you are parochial."

Su Xinghui said, "I'm not afraid if they say we are parochial. Jiangcheng wants to develop, so Shangjun County shouldn't develop? I'd like to see what their faces look like when Old Mr. Hou decides to invest in our Shangjun County!"
