He smiled and said, "Zhicheng, the Qiong-Han integration project has been progressing so well that Secretary Wen specifically praised Hanzhou at the provincial work conference at the beginning of the year. However, we still have to make persistent efforts to maintain the current good momentum and strive for greater success."
Fang Zhicheng said quickly: "Secretary Xia, I told you last time that if you want to get things done, you have to give us soldiers and food."
Xia Lanshan glanced at Fang Zhicheng unhappily, and said to Hu Gang beside him, "How has your government discussed the materials submitted by Xiaguang District last time?"
Hu Gang smiled faintly and said, "Secretary Lanshan, our government has discussed this issue, but there is no conclusion yet."
Xia Lanshan frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "What's the problem?"
Hu Gang smiled bitterly and said, "It had already been decided to give Xiaguang the most favorable policy, but there were some minor problems with the finances."
Xia Lanshan nodded and said, "Oh? Zhao Ling is in charge of financial issues. Is he here today?"
Hu Gang shook his head and said, "Mayor Zhao went to a meeting at the ministry yesterday."
Xia Lanshan was a little unhappy and asked, "What exactly is this little financial problem?"
Hu Gang said: "The finance department has analyzed and concluded that according to the policy of the Xiaguang District document, more than 90% of the companies that settle there can enjoy tax exemptions within three years. At the same time, the municipal finance department will also subsidize each company with about 200,000 yuan in financial support."
Xia Lanshan glanced at Fang Zhicheng, and Fang Zhicheng immediately understood that Xia Lanshan wanted him to explain.
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said: "The financial department's analysis is good. In the short term, the finance is in a loss state, but it has not calculated the long-term financial revenue."
Hu Gang smiled and didn't explain too much, because this matter was not about him trying to trip up Fang Zhicheng.
When Xia Lanshan saw that Hu Gang did not answer Fang Zhicheng, he guessed the reason.
There is a certain tacit understanding within the municipal party committee. Although Xia Lanshan favors Fang Zhicheng, he still has to save some face for Zhao Liang in front of Fang Zhicheng. Zhao Liang is very useful to Xia Lanshan. On the one hand, he is used to balance the relationship with Hu Gang. On the other hand, Zhao Liang is indeed capable of attracting a lot of funds in the ministry. Without Zhao Liang, it would be difficult for Hanzhou to obtain funds. Without funds, how can we talk about policy benefits
So even after such a big incident at the Palace Bar, Xia Lanshan still retained the position of executive vice mayor for Zhao Liang.
He waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Let's wait until Comrade Zhao Ling returns from Yanjing before discussing it." Then Xia Lanshan glanced at Hu Gang intentionally or unintentionally.
Hu Gang used a clever trick. He didn't want to become a sinner for Zhao Liang, so he told Fang Zhicheng in a tactful way. It was mainly because Zhao Liang, who was in charge of finance, disagreed with many of the financial policy supports of Xiaguang District.
Fang Zhicheng was naturally extremely depressed. He had been full of confidence, thinking that as long as he could let Xia Lanshan see the progress of key projects such as the intra-city project, Xia Lanshan would definitely support him unreservedly. However, he did not expect that Zhao Liang would appear halfway and ruin his plan.
Fang Zhicheng could guess the reason why Zhao Liang was hindering him. The Royal Palace Bar incident almost made Zhao Liang completely depressed. Now that he was back in position, he would naturally not let Fang Zhicheng have a good life.
It can be said that Zhao Ling is not afraid of anyone in Hanzhou. Even Xia Lanshan gives him some face. He strives to obtain billions of financial grants for the Hanzhou government every year. If it were anyone else, who would have such ability
Afterwards, the group investigated the third phase of the industrial park and several other projects. Knowing that the new investment policy they applied for had not been approved, Fang Zhicheng was not very enthusiastic and only made a symbolic introduction.
After the investigation, when Xia Lanshan got on the Coaster first, Hu Gang deliberately fell behind and whispered to Fang Zhicheng, "Xiaguang has many good projects and unlimited potential, but if we want to get the city's support, we need to go to the financial department more often."
Fang Zhicheng knew that Hu Gang was reminding him, and said with a smile: "Thank you Mayor Hu for the reminder. Please take care of it as well."
Hu Gang pressed Fang Zhicheng's shoulder and said nothing more.
Hu Gang's attitude is very clear. He seems to be on Fang Zhicheng's side, but in fact he has bad intentions. He is eager to get involved with Zhao Ling and then reap the benefits. This is the reality of the officialdom. There are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal intrigue.
Chapter 0617 This guy really knows how to play
Today's research meeting of the municipal party committee leaders in Xiaguang was ultimately a lot of noise but little action. This was the first time Fang Zhicheng suffered a setback since he became the district party secretary. He originally thought that he could use this opportunity to obtain good policies for Xiaguang District from the city, but he did not expect that the financial department would suddenly interfere, so that the original plan was shattered.
Xia Lanshan’s words today were very clear. If the finance department does not give in, the policy cannot be implemented, so Fang Zhicheng must work hard on his own and strive to pass the approval of the finance department.
This not only made Fang Zhicheng very embarrassed, but he also had a bad relationship with Zhao Liang. Wouldn't it be a waste of time if he tried to coordinate on his own
At the same time, Fang Zhicheng was trying to figure out Xia Lanshan's thoughts, probably hoping to put some pressure on himself. Xia Lanshan was also a veteran in the officialdom, and he knew how to control people's hearts. Although he was optimistic about Fang Zhicheng, he would never be soft-handed when it came time to give Fang Zhicheng a blow. In Xia Lanshan's eyes, Fang Zhicheng was just a soldier under him, and arrogant soldiers would be defeated, so he should be given some setbacks at the right time.
As for Hu Gang, he was eager to create an opponent for Zhao Ling. Some time ago, Hu Gang submitted a construction plan for a rural cultural square project to Xia Lanshan, but Zhao Ling rejected it on financial grounds. Hu Gang was furious, and now that Xiaguang District had encountered the same trick as Zhao Ling, he naturally thought of playing a borrowed knife to kill someone, letting Fang Zhicheng and Zhao Ling fight.
Only by being in it can you understand the complexity of the struggle.
In the evening, Chen Chao and Zhang Xiaoliang found a food stall to eat, ordered a few side dishes, and chatted while drinking. Zhang Xiaoliang filled a glass of beer for Chen Chao and said, "Director Chen, you've done a good job. Secretary Fang is used to bringing you along to any event now."
The two clinked glasses. During this time, Chen Chao could feel that Fang Zhicheng had gradually dispelled his doubts about him and had let him do many things. But in order to gain Fang Zhicheng's trust, Chen Chao used many means, even causing complaints from the district party committee office.
Chen Chao drank all the wine in his glass and smiled modestly, "I am the director of the district party committee office. I will follow wherever the district party secretary goes. But District Chief Zhang, you are not the leader in charge of key projects at all, and Secretary Fang still asked you to rush to the site. This is reuse and trust."
Zhang Xiaoliang waved his hand and whispered, "I know Secretary Fang quite well. The things you did in the district party committee office some time ago touched his heart. Secretary Fang looks young and easy-going, but in fact he is very tough. Deng Shaoqun is strong on the outside but soft on the inside, while Secretary Fang is soft on the outside but strong on the inside."
Zhang Xiaoliang has been with Fang Zhicheng for a while, so he has a very deep opinion of Fang Zhicheng. Zhang Xiaoliang's professional ability can only be considered average, but he is very talented in reading people's minds. He is good at interpersonal communication and good at adapting to the situation. In the officialdom, interpersonal relationship handling ability sometimes exceeds professional ability. Because government work often involves organizational work that requires communication from top to bottom and coordination and overall planning, interpersonal relationships have advantages, and efficiency in handling problems is greatly improved.
Chen Chao nodded in agreement, "Secretary Fang is a very courageous person. However, his character will also lead to many difficulties. For example, he suffered a loss today and was tricked by Zhao Liang."
Zhang Xiaoliang put down his chopsticks and said in a deep voice, "I have some knowledge of Zhao Ling. He is very arrogant. He has always been rampant in Hanzhou, relying on the support funds he can get from the ministry. Even Secretary Lanshan can't do much to him. Secretary Fang is indeed in a difficult situation when he encounters such an opponent."
Chen Chao sighed and said, "Although Xiaguang District is developing rapidly now, it is difficult to speed up without financial support. Secretary Fang plans to attract 10 billion yuan in investment this year. If there is no attractive investment policy, how can we attract those big companies?"
Zhang Xiaoliang said: "If the finance department refuses to give support to Xiaguang District, then we will have to resort to some extreme measures."
Chen Chao was slightly startled and asked in confusion: "What do you want to do?"
Zhang Xiaoliang waved his hand, his expression softened, and he smiled faintly, "I just said it casually, don't take it to heart."
Chen Chao could tell that Zhang Xiaoliang might have come up with some scheme, but since he didn't tell him, he didn't ask any more questions. He took a long breath and changed the subject, "Old Zhang, I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, I don't know where I would be exiled to now!"
