Chapter 29 Entering the state

Politics determines everything, and this proverb applies at any time.

No one can ignore the influence of the machine tool factory in the city. Liang Kaishan, director of the Municipal People's Congress, was the former director and party secretary of the machine tool factory. Xiao Chao, now a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the Organization Minister, is also a cadre who grew up from the machine tool factory. Although he only served as the deputy secretary of the Party Committee, he had ten years of work experience in the machine tool factory and had deep feelings. He once remembered it with Deng Ruoxian about his work experience in the machine tool factory. Even after being transferred to the city for more than ten years, cadres from the machine tool factory often came to the city to ask Xiao Chao for help.

The easy first and then difficult mentioned by Deng Ruoxian, Zhao Guodong, first, first, used all his strength to operate the listing of the drilling and mining equipment factory, was not unconsidered, and it also proposed it on a certain occasion, but it was strongly opposed by Liang Kaishan and Xiao Chao.

They believe that the city's energy and resources are quite limited. The machine tool factory, an enterprise that is related to the stability of the industry in the city, is obviously much worse than the drilling and mining equipment factory in terms of survival difficulty. It is the top priority for the reform of industrial state-owned enterprises in the city. It must not be shaken at all. Even if the drilling and mining equipment factory is not listed, it can survive. There is no comparison between the two.

Zhao Guodong had also exchanged views with Chen Yinglu on this issue. Chen Yinglu finally persuaded Zhao Guodong to keep his attitude on this issue for the time being to avoid affecting the preparations of the People's Congress. Deng Ruoxian also knew the complexity of the problem at that time, so he did not pursue this issue too closely.

Now that the People's Congress has passed, the position of Mayor Zhao Guodong is stable, Deng Ruoxian naturally has to put this issue on the agenda.

"Mayor Zhao, we can't just do nothing because of the attitude of the machine tool factory?" Deng Ruoxian was a little emotional. "We are not without the machine tool factory going public, but the machine tool factory has many problems. After several steps, we have blocked the threshold. The China Securities Regulatory Commission cannot pass the preliminary review. How do you go public? Now the sponsors and issuers are almost psychologically hindered. What do they want to do in the city?" Deng Ruoxian said angrily.

He rarely has this kind of emotion. It is because he is overwhelmed by the listing of the machine tool factory that he has such words.

Zhao Guodong pondered silently.

The Toyota Coaster carriage fell into silence. Although there were still several cadres from the municipal government office sitting on the car, they all kept quiet very tactfully. Mayor Deng was always resolute and calm, and rarely complained. They rarely saw this situation today.

"Old Deng, what is the key to the machine tool factory that cannot pass the preliminary review?" Zhao Guodong knew that the domestic listing has great policy and arbitrary nature, especially in the past two years, state-owned enterprises have been constantly solving problems through this method. Companies that are several times worse than machine tool factories can also go public openly. Logically speaking, there is no chance of going public by machine tool factories.

"The core assets are unclear, the assets and liabilities are too high, and there are some tax problems, and the quality of the issuance application materials is not high." Deng Ruoxian said it vaguely, and it is indeed not advisable to explain in depth in this situation.

Zhao Guodong actually knew the problems of the machine tool factory, but Deng Ruoxian had always been operating this matter, so he did not ask about it in detail. Now the machine tool factory is in trouble and even affects the preparations for the drilling and mining equipment factory. This has to attract his attention. Even though he knows that pushing the machine tool factory, a hot potato, to the market, may not bring much light to the machine tool factory, but how can you know if you don’t try it?

"Does the core assets be clear? Are you considering divesting non-core assets? Don't seek big, but seeking precision. Now, you still expect how big the financing amount is. It's not realistic that you can launch it. State-owned legal person stocks still account for the majority of the market. The city has no objection. What else is there to make trouble in their factory?" Zhao Guodong snorted, "The debt is too high. Are there any other ways to solve it?"

"The financing amount may be somewhat different from what the factory hopes, but this problem can be solved through the city's work, but the debt problem is the key." Deng Ruoxian said it was very obscure.

Lu Qiuchen told him clearly that he would never agree to the matter of using the municipal finance to pay for the holes in the machine tool factory and clearing the obstacles for the listing of the machine tool factory. This hole would drag the city finance into the abyss. At that time, Deng Ruoxian implicitly told Lu Qiuchen that in fact, he could think of other ways to make up for it after the machine tool factory was listed. As the largest legal shareholder, the management of the city was also controlled by the city, so he could do this, but Lu Qiuchen still expressed his deep congratulations and refused this plan.

Zhao Guodong also understood the meaning of Deng Ruoxian's words. Of course, he also knew that after the company went public, the city that owns controlling stake still had great control over the machine tool factory. There were too many ways to operate, so there was no need to get entangled in this issue.

"Old Deng, I think this is how many days will be left before the Spring Festival. Let's study it. The development of drilling and mining equipment factory cannot be affected by the obstacles in the listing of the machine tool factory. Of course, we must also consider the concerns of some comrades. We will think of the three issues you mentioned. The first two will be solved, and the second one will probably have to be carefully considered by the factory and the sponsor, and strive to make a final decision in the next time."

Zhao Guodong's tone was quite peaceful, but the firmness revealed in his words was unquestionable. It seemed that Zhao Guodong was trying hard to settle these two things, which made Deng Ruoxian's already depressed mood suddenly regain his vitality. No matter what tricks the other party used, Deng Ruoxian believed that Zhao Guodong dared to boast about it, so he naturally had his own reliance. After being elected, Zhao Guodong should also sweep away the difficulties and restraints of the previous contemporary mayor.

"Mayor Guodong, a rare guest, a rare guest." Liang Kaishan was quite surprised by Zhao Guodong's visit. Although the city government had contacted his secretary before, he had passed the political glory period and was now accustomed to having his own schedule without other work.

In the morning, he worked for an hour, and then walked around the Qujiang River and then took a walk to Yaohu Park. Since he took office as the director of the Municipal People's Congress, he has basically insisted on this living habit. Looking at the scenery and the mountains and breathing in the fresh air, Liang Kaishan is very glad that he has been persisting in defending the natural landscape environment of Huaiqing for so many years. Only in this way can all Huaiqing citizens, including him, maintain such a pure land in the current economic tide polluted by bizarre nature.

"Director Liang, what you said is just criticizing our municipal government for being too little supervised by the Municipal People's Congress?" Zhao Guodong said half-jokingly.

"Haha, Mayor Zhao, you are so good at speaking." Liang Kaishan laughed loudly and waved his hand to invite Zhao Guodong to take his seat.

Liang Kaishan actually has a good impression of Zhao Guodong, especially when Zhao Guodong was the executive vice mayor, he put forward the view that Huaiqing's natural landscape environment should not be polluted. He would rather sacrifice some high-pollution GDP than keep clean water and soil for future generations. This made Liang Kaishan feel good about Zhao Guodong, a young executive who he originally did not take seriously.

It is naturally a bit of background and ability to come to Huaiqing for such a young age, especially since it is said that this executive made a big splash in Ningling for economic development and was recognized by the provincial leaders. This made Liang Kaishan very alert to Zhao Guodong at one time, worried that the other party would rather make some political achievements than to sacrifice Huaiqing's ecological environment despite the actual situation of Huaiqing.

However, Zhao Guodong's statement and later performance made him feel relieved. Zhao Guodong fulfilled his promises when attending meetings of the Municipal People's Congress several times, developing the economy and protecting a high-quality ecological environment in parallel, and using Huaiqing's high-quality ecological environment as a way to attract high-tech and low-pollution industries to enter Huaiqing and revitalize Huaiqing's economy.

It was precisely because of Zhao Guodong's performance that Zhao Guodong proposed this grand new urban plan and was successfully approved by the Municipal People's Congress with the strong support of Liang Kaishan. He raised almost no doubts. However, the minor modification of the urban plan proposed by the previous municipal government was stuck on the Municipal People's Congress, causing a dilemma and finally left it alone.

This also shows Liang Kaishan’s trust in Zhao Guodong.

"Mayor Zhao, you've just taken office now. Isn't it a lot of work pressure? It's the New Year again, why do you have time to sit at our National People's Congress?" Liang Kaishan knew of course that there must be something wrong with the other party, and it must be a big deal. Otherwise, with the relationship between the two of them getting along well, there was no need to visit them in person.

"I won't go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. Director Liang, I don't want to go around the circle. I have to report on my work like you. Please support me." Zhao Guodong didn't say nonsense and went straight to the point.

After Zhao Guodong introduced his purpose, Liang Kaishan fell into deep thought. Zhao Guodong's last sentence said that the best development opportunity of drilling and mining equipment factory should not be missed, otherwise it may become the biggest regret of this ruling party, which made him feel.

Zhao Guodong's attitude is very sincere. Perhaps because of his youth, he can still bear the face. This moved Liang Kaishan very much with his disciples' attitude of treating elders with his juniors. He has seen many young leaders Liang Kaishan, including those who are young and arrogant, and those who are self-proclaimed. However, a role like Zhao Guodong who was quite violent during his tenure as executive vice mayor was very gentle and polite in front of him, and Liang Kaishan really couldn't bear to refuse.
