Since the next day was the official start of the Haichuan City’s Hong Kong Investment Promotion Conference, Sun Shouyi and the others had just arrived in Hong Kong, and they had spent a few hours on the plane, and they were tired, so Lu Xin only symbolically picked up the wind for them. They were sent back to the hotel to rest without much drinking.
After returning to the hotel room, Sun Shouyi was a little bit excited, and also worried about whether the investment promotion activities could be held tomorrow. If he couldn't sleep, he asked Fu Hua to come over and chat with him.
After watching it for a while, Sun Shouyi turned around and smiled and said, "Fu Hua, I have to admit that Hong Kong is prosperous. This small place contains such strong economic strength."
Fu Hua smiled and said: "This is to give full play to the powerful effects of a free economy. Hong Kong is known as the freest economic port in the world. The government pursues a policy of non-intervention in economic behavior as much as possible, and Hong Kong's economy can develop so well. And we On the mainland side, the government is always worried that if they do not manage it, the economy will go down. In fact, it is really unfounded worry."
Sun Shouyi laughed and said: "Yes, some economists said that the more government liberalized the department on the mainland, the better the development, and the more deadly the department, the worse the development. This way. In fact, it is not conducive to economic development."
Fu Hua smiled and said: "Yes, let’s just register a company. In Hong Kong, the threshold is very low, and it can be done on the same day. However, the industrial and commercial departments in the Mainland are faced with a lot of difficulties. That doesn't work either. It seems that people registering companies are doing harm to others. It takes at least half a month to register a company. Enterprises are the foundation of the economy. It is so difficult to run a business. It not only dampens the passion of entrepreneurs, but is also detrimental to the development of society and economy.
Sun Shouyi smiled and said: "This is indeed a problem to be solved by letter. It is not someone else. Just say that this time Mr. Lu and Ding Yi are involved in the old city reconstruction project, which requires dozens of official seals for a project, which is simply torturing. "
Fu Hua smiled and said: “You can ask for money to stamp a seal. This is actually the rent-seeking of the municipal government department with the help of power. This is where the gray income comes from."
Sun Shouyi laughed and said, "The hands that shouldn't be stretched are still not stretched. Look at the Ma Genshan case in Taihe City. How many officials have been imprisoned because they stretched out their wrong hands? Once the officials were corrupt. Someday, I will bear the corresponding responsibilities."
Fu Hua smiled and said, "Mayor, we are talking privately. You don't need to use the official tone."
Sun Shouyi smiled and said, "What's wrong, isn't it true that I'm telling you? This time, many officials were indeed punished for corruption."
Fu Hua smiled and said, "But the fish that slipped through the net were more and bigger? I heard that this time you and Secretary Jin went to the province in person to ask Secretary Lu Ji to stop the investigation of the case."
Sun Shouyi glanced at Fu Hua, smiled and said, "Your news is pretty well-informed. You even know that Secretary Jinda and I went to the province to stop the investigation. But you have to understand one thing, Secretary Jinda and I went like this. The request is not that we want to shield corruption, but that if we continue to investigate, Haichuan’s political situation will definitely be unstable. Now stability is the greatest. For Haichuan, Secretary Jin and I have to do this. Anyway, the main facts of the case have been established. Clear."
Fu Hua smiled and said: "Mayor, I am not going to blame anyone, but I cannot agree with you that the main facts of the case have been found out. The most important thing in this case is Ma Genshan from Taihe City. The two million that the Bureau of Finance took away, I would like to ask you, did you find the two million? If you didn't find the two million, the case was stopped. Do you say that this will keep the people from doubting it?"
Sun Shouyi glanced at Fu Hua and then said, "Doubt, Fu Hua, what are you doubting? Are you doubting Secretary Jin?"
Fu Hua smiled and said, "Mayor, don't look at me with this kind of eyes. It is not what I suspect, but what people outside are suspecting. I believe in Secretary Jin's personality, knowing that he will definitely not be able to do it. This happened, but people outside did not believe him. Now there are a lot of private discussions about Secretary Jin, which has a very bad influence on the Haichuan Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government."
Sun Shouyi smiled bitterly and said, "I believe Secretary Jin is innocent in this matter. As for what the outsiders say, we don’t care about it or think about it. Let’s think about the current investment promotion activities. I don’t know how many people will come to our promotion tomorrow."
Fu Hua smiled and said: "This mayor, please relax. Mr. Lu is also a very influential person in Hong Kong. Many of the activities he organizes are for the sake of saving face. There will certainly not be fewer people coming tomorrow."
Sun Shouyi smiled and said, “It’s useless if there are a lot of people coming. It depends on whether we can reach a cooperation with Haichuan City. I tell you, what I want is the actual use of funds, not just the use of funds under contract. . I don’t want to play with that kind of empty-headed stuff."
Fu Hua laughed. The so-called contract use of funds is actually a word game played by many officials in investment promotion, and a fraudulent method of boasting about their political achievements. The contractual use of funds is actually quite different from the actual use of funds, because many investors may not actually invest the funds after initializing the investment contract. In reality, there is often a kind of ridiculous difference between the contractual use of funds and the actual use of funds, or even more.
This is also a typical practice of official fraud, and it is also a common problem in officialdom. Speak up the numbers so that you can decorate yourself.
Fu Hua said: "It's not easy to say how much money you can get now, but the mayor, if you come, you will be at ease. At this time, it is useless to worry."
Sun Shouyi said: "That's true."
Fu Hua said: "Hey, Mayor, I think I need to report something to you. This time you might have to pay more attention to He Feijun and Deputy Mayor."
Sun Shouyi frowned. After the Gu Mingli incident, he had a grudge against He Feijun in his heart, so he did not want to hear Fu Hua mention He Feijun's name. He glanced at Fu Hua and said, "What's wrong with He Feijun? Why should I pay more attention to him?"
Fu Hua said: "You didn't see him getting close to Mr. Lu at the reception banquet today. You also know what industry Mr. Lu is in. You have to be careful not to let He Feijun get into trouble."
Sun Shouyi thought for a while and it was indeed. It seemed that He Feijun wanted to try his best to please Lu Xin at the banquet. It was a bit too much to toast and chat with Lu Xin. Obviously he was very interested in Lu Xin. An official was very interested in businessmen, and Sun Shouyi couldn't think of any good intentions.
Sun Shouyi smiled bitterly and said, "He Feijun, this time I don’t want to bring him out. But he is the deputy mayor in charge of industry. I came to Hong Kong to attract investment. There are many industrial projects among the projects. I can’t explain it without taking him. Well, Fu Hua, I will try to pay close attention to him."
Fu Hua smiled, no more words. In fact, he just wanted to remind some Sun Shouyi, not what he wanted to do to He Feijun. The time he and Wu Yi came to Hong Kong, he was on a gambling boat. He knew that there was nothing to eat, drink and play on the gambling boat. Lu Xin himself was a sidekick. It is hard to say that people like He Feijun will be able to defend Lu Xin. Got to live by yourself. Especially He Feijun itself is not reliable.
This time he came to Hong Kong to attract investment. It was Sun Shouyi's first overseas visit since he became the mayor. Fu Hua naturally didn't want to see He Feijun make trouble and shame the entire economic and trade delegation, so he spoke to remind Sun Shouyi. Now that Sun Shouyi understood what he meant, he didn't say anything anymore.
Sun Shouyi sighed at this time and said: "Fu Hua, I am under a lot of pressure now. Although Ma Genshan's case has nothing to do with me, a large number of officials were arrested, which severely hit the cadres. Our morale is now lifeless in Haichuan’s political arena, and the cadres don’t have the energy to do anything. My new mayor is unlucky enough to encounter such a start."
Fu Hua also understands the current situation in Haichuan City, and Sun Shouyi is not false at all. But to reverse this situation, there is no special medicine that can be effective immediately. He smiled and said, "Mayor, take your time. Don't be anxious. After this period of time, the situation will slowly turn around."
Sun Shouyi smiled and said, "Fu Hua, although I know you will definitely not accept this arrangement, I still can't help but want you to return to Haichuan to help me. You know, now Li Tianliang commits suicide. , Haichuan City has vacated a position as a deputy mayor. If you want to, I can help you arrange it."
Fu Hua smiled and didn't say a word. He knew that he didn't need to answer. Sun Shouyi himself said that he would not accept it. What's more, Sun Shouyi had this idea. He didn't really want him to go back to the city government to work. There is a very crucial checkpoint in it, that is, Jinda, the secretary of the municipal party committee. Jinda will definitely not support Sun Shouyi's idea. .
Sun Shouyi's alliance with Jinda is very strong now, so naturally he will not fall out with Jinda because of Fu Hua.
Sun Shouyi was a little bit disappointed. He looked at his watch and said, "It's late, Fu Hua, go back and rest. We will be busy tomorrow."
The two ended their conversation, and Fu Hua went back to the room to rest.
The next day, at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center, the Haichuan City Hong Kong Investment Promotion Conference officially opened. Lu Xin fully demonstrated his network and influence in Hong Kong. The actual number of companies and the number of attendees far exceeded the expected scale. Sun Shouyi looked very energetic.
