The new urban area project has just taken shape, but it has already created a sensation across the country. After the Qiong-Han integration project was implemented, Hongda Group built a number of similar Qiong-Han integration projects across the country in a replicated form, but basically maintained the original model without major technological breakthroughs. However, in the construction of the new urban area, Hongda Group invested more funds in upgrading the design and concepts.

Caoyao's new urban area project incorporates elements of green design, green living, and green economy. Both the lifestyle and service formats are built on the basic concept of low energy consumption, low pollution, and low emissions. Outsiders commented that this will be a revolution in future urban planning.

Cao Yao's officialdom has been on track because many projects have been put on the right track. Unlike the previous running-in period, the game is no longer as fierce as it was before. It has moved more to the underground level and more around the resources of lower-level cadres. Therefore, Guan Ruofei has been very busy recently, constantly adjusting the candidates, but his excellent business ability has allowed him to quickly sort out a network of relationships that is conducive to balance.

Fang Zhicheng did not pay much attention to the relationship networks of his subordinates, because the organizational relations were always in the hands of the municipal party secretary, and those were not his strong points. As long as they did not affect his drastic reforms in Caoyao's municipal development, he could remain silent.

Chang Mengyuan has taken a lot of actions and is particularly close to Zhang Xiaoliang. Knowing that he cannot seek support by talking directly to Fang Zhicheng, he hopes to get in touch with some of Fang Zhicheng's resources through Zhang Xiaoliang.

The reason why Chang Mengyuan was willing to humble himself was mainly because he felt that Cao Yao was undergoing tremendous changes, local factions were becoming increasingly weakened, and Wang Guoyue had not only improved his layout at the middle and high levels, but had also gradually infiltrated the lower levels. In particular, the recently launched 10,000-echelon plan made Chang Mengyuan, who was in charge of party and mass work, feel greatly threatened.

The so-called 10,000-team plan is a talent project. Because local development must bring in people, Wang Guoyue plans to recruit 10,000 fresh graduates from major universities across the country and put them in various positions. Although they are not recruiting cadres within the system, they will select outstanding talents from them and incorporate them into the later civil service team.

With these 10,000 people, plus the "Cao Yao University Town" project that Sui Qi recently applied for to the Ministry of Education, more than 30 universities will build branches in the university towns designated by Cao Yao in the future. Cao Yao's talent pool will be sufficient to support the growth and development of the entire social and economic system.

The earth-shaking changes and the foreseeable future have made local factions panic. The successive arrivals of Sui Qi, Wang Guoyue and Fang Zhicheng have made Cao Yao move forward at a high speed in a direction with unlimited prospects. Although there will be difficulties, it is full of expectations.

The one who has changed the most is Qu Kang. He started out as a secret planner, but now he has gradually let go of his power because he found that if he continued to interfere, he would be condemned by thousands of people and the initiator of destroying Cao Yao's good situation. Qu Kang is about to retire, and he doesn't have many ideas. If Cao Yao can really make progress, it would be a good opportunity for him to take advantage of the situation and impact the vice-ministerial level.

For Qu Kang, he can already see the focus of his career, and retiring as a vice-minister in the province is the best way.

According to Su Mo's arrangement, Fang Zhicheng took several people to Xiangnan Province for research. In his impression, Xiangnan is an underdeveloped central province, adjacent to Yuezhou Province and Xiangbei Province, with a population base and economic output ranking last. But after arriving in Xingzhou, the capital of Xiangnan Province, he found that his previous views were too one-sided. Whether in terms of urban planning or social environment, it is full of special temperament.

The Xiangnan Provincial Government is located in the southeast of the city. In order to promote the local economy and build a southeast business district, the provincial government was moved south. Facts have proved that the effect is good. Due to the leadership of the provincial government, the surrounding housing prices have risen a lot, and a large number of commercial and entertainment infrastructure are also provided.

After getting off the train, someone greeted him at the South Station. The person who received him was Cao Yaokun, the Secretary General of the Xiangnan Provincial Government, a department-level cadre, which was an exceptional reception standard. Fang Zhicheng was a member of the Standing Committee at the prefecture-level, so he was usually received by a deputy department-level cadre, which was considered to be giving him enough face.

Of course, this cannot be viewed according to common sense in official circles. After all, Fang Zhicheng's uncle is the second-in-command of Southern Hunan Province. At the same time, the purpose of Fang Zhicheng's trip is also the request of the number one figure in the provincial party committee.

Cao Yaokun shook hands with Fang Zhicheng enthusiastically and said with a smile: "Zhicheng, welcome to Xiangnan."

Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Secretary Cao, I didn't expect you to come and pick me up in person. I'm really flattered."

Cao Yaokun waved his hand and said, "No need to be so polite, let's get in the car and talk. Governor Su just called to ask about it, so I'm afraid we'll be late."

Fang Zhicheng nodded, told the others to get on the Audis behind, and followed Cao Yaokun into the front Audi. Fang Zhicheng knew very well that such a reception standard had reached the ministerial level, and even if a deputy ministerial level cadre came to southern Hunan, he might not be able to enjoy such treatment.

After getting into the car, Cao Yaokun called Su Mo and after a few words, handed it to Fang Zhicheng. Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "I have arrived safely. The reception standard is a bit high. I am flattered."

Su Mo smiled faintly and said, "I still have some things to deal with here, let's talk when we meet later."

It only takes half an hour to drive from the South Railway Station to the provincial government. Fang Zhicheng and Cao Yaokun kept chatting. Cao Yaokun was a very talkative person. He talked about interesting things in not very standard Xingzhou Mandarin, which added a bit of humor and wit.

After several months, I finally met Su Mo. He looked much more haggard than the last time we met, with more fine wrinkles around his eyes and a little gray at his temples. After Fang Zhicheng introduced the people he was traveling with, Cao Yaokun arranged for someone to take him to another office. Fang Zhicheng stayed in Su Mo's office, and the two chatted intermittently.

Su Mo was handling some official business, and he did not hide it from Fang Zhicheng. During the marking process, he asked questions from time to time. Fang Zhicheng knew that Su Mo was deliberately testing him, so he gave his own opinions seriously. Although Su Mo did not say anything, it was obvious that he agreed with Fang Zhicheng's opinions.

"You have seen the economic situation in Xiangnan Province. It is far inferior to Huainan. Although Xingzhou's urban planning is good, in fact, if it is applied to other cities, there will probably be huge differences." Su Mo put down his pen, rubbed his eyebrows, and said softly.

Fang Zhicheng said with emotion: "Southern Hunan has mobilized the whole province to build Xingzhou, and this approach has begun to show results. Xingzhou is the gateway to southern Hunan. Taking the core city as the center to drive the development of the urban agglomeration is the right idea."

Su Mo nodded, thinking that Fang Zhicheng must have done his homework and studied the development of Xiangnan carefully. He said, "This is the development strategy that Secretary Tang has focused on promoting during his tenure, and it has been successful. Although the total economic volume of Xiangnan Province has not reached the first-tier camp, the city's influence is firmly in the forefront. The economy has also continued to grow in recent years. More importantly, our finances are not based on a real estate bubble."

Shonan is located in central China, and its geographical location limits its development. However, under such a premise, it is surprising that Shonan's media ranks among the best in the country.

At the same time, the housing prices in Xiangnan are now well controlled, and can be said to be the lowest among all the provincial capitals in the country. The housing prices are related to the local consumption level, but also because the government has taken many measures to control the housing prices, the real estate industry in Xiangnan has been highly recognized by the national leaders.

Su Mo and Fang Zhicheng chatted for a while about the current political situation in the country. The commotion in Ganzhou Province has gradually calmed down. The head of the Chinese Football Association was also summoned by the national leaders because of this matter. It is said that he made a statement on the spot and signed a military order to rectify the atmosphere in the football industry within three years and provide a good foundation for the standardized development of football.

The phone rang a few times, Su Mo stood up and said with a smile: "Let's go, Secretary Tang will have 30 minutes later, let's go over."

Fang Zhicheng was quite excited. The Tang family monster was a recognized genius in the officialdom in recent decades. The feeling of meeting such a person was no less than meeting the head of state.

The Tang family's evildoer not only has an excellent strategic vision, but also has a flawless way of dealing with people. Anyone who communicates with him will be infected and influenced by his charm. Fang Zhicheng felt his heart beating faster, and wanted to learn that special magic from him.

Chapter 1010 The Internet is not subversive

It rained a lot in Xingzhou. It was cloudy when Cao Yao's inspection team arrived. After they came out of the provincial government, they started writing about the rain.

The provincial government is located in the south city, while the provincial party committee compound is located in the city center. The distance is not too far, but because there are many vehicles in the city center, it took about half an hour to reach the provincial party committee compound.

The Xiangnan Provincial Party Committee compound looks extremely old from the outside. It was expanded after the founding of the People's Republic of China based on the old residence of a wealthy businessman. Unlike the modern feel of the provincial government, the walls are uniformly painted red, which adds a sense of vicissitudes in the continuous autumn rain.

The buildings in the courtyard are not high, usually six stories high, and the leaders work on the top floor. Building No. 1 is naturally the office of the provincial party secretary. After the car stopped, some people came out with umbrellas. Su Mo got out first. The leader was a young man who looked about the same age as Fang Zhicheng. He took the initiative to shake hands with Su Mo and said with a smile: "Governor, hello!"

Su Mo nodded and introduced to Fang Zhicheng: "This is Secretary Tang's secretary, Comrade Xiao Cheng."

The secretary of the provincial party committee secretary is known as the second-in-command. Although his rank is only at the deputy director level, he has enormous power and is the spokesperson for the provincial party committee secretary.

Xiao Cheng glanced at Fang Zhicheng's face lightly and said with a smile: "This is Mayor Fang, right?"

Fang Zhicheng took the initiative to step forward, shook hands with him, and said with a smile: "Hello, Secretary-General Xiao!"

In addition to being the secretary of the provincial party committee secretary, Xiao Cheng also served as the deputy secretary general of the provincial party committee, so it was not an exaggeration for Fang Zhicheng to call him that. Although there was only a one-letter difference between secretary and secretary general, Xiao Cheng felt completely different. Xiao Cheng knew Fang Zhicheng's identity, he was younger than himself, and he also had the support of the Su family. Although he was only at the deputy department level now, his future was limitless.

Xiao Cheng knows his boss very well. He is a man of great vision. His willingness to meet with Fang Zhicheng proves Fang Zhicheng's strength.

Xiao Cheng felt the soft and warm power coming from his palm, and smiled faintly: "I have always been curious about what kind of person you are. I didn't expect you to be so young. It's surprising."
