Chapter 19: The Willows

The public quarrel between the two heads of the evaluation team did not avoid the ears of other members of the evaluation team. Although the small conference room was covering the balcony, the sound from the gap still made several members of the evaluation team look at each other.

"Director Xu, I just proposed a solution. It is obvious that your approach only satisfies your personal wishes, but when we go back, we cannot submit a letter to our superiors. Could it be that the unit sent us out to get such a result? Is this just in Tangjiang, Rongshan and Pennsylvania?" Zhao Guodong said calmly.

Xu Ming felt a little bored. Tang Jiang was like this, so it was conceivable that Rongshan was not easy, and the most troublesome thing was Pennsylvania.

In fact, the whole thing started to get bored from Pennsylvania. Angui Expressway was suddenly promoted to an unprecedented height. Even the leaders of the Planning Commission felt that it was quite difficult to cool down Pennsylvania now. The problem is that you can only choose one of Anyu Expressway and Angui Expressway, and Anyu Expressway must be started first, both public and private, which is that simple.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Ming tried hard to control his emotions. This guy was just like him, but he was also a pawn and was ordered to come. However, what the other party said was indeed reasonable. He also needed to go back and submit a job. The same was true for those from the land and construction departments. These guys came together and wanted to break off their relationship, which was expected.

However, Tang Jiang's attitude is indeed a bit unexpected. If Rongshan and Pennsylvania have the same attitude, then this matter will be a bit troublesome.

Xu Ming was also a little confused when he was attacked inside and outside. What should I do? Thinking of this, Xu Ming couldn't help but curse in his heart. Even though he knew it was a hot potato, he was unwilling to come, but in the end it fell on his own. After this trip, the benefits were not as good as he offended many people.

"Chapter Xu, I also know your difficulties. You can also be in your position, but whoever lets you stand in this position will have to take responsibility, right?" Zhao Guodong smiled slightly.

"Brother, you need to consider the consequences clearly when doing things. Some things are not as simple as you imagine." Xu Ming stared at the other party and said coldly.

"Director Xu, I've taken your kindness, but I'm different from you, and I don't need to think so much like you." Zhao Guodong blinked, "In fact, we all know that this assessment is just a formality. How can the real decision be changed because of our casual walk? This is just a handicap to comfort the frustrated party."

Xu Ming was stunned. He didn't expect that this guy could see so thoroughly, but why did this guy still have to be so persistent and dissatisfied with him?

"Chronichou Xu, you and I are in different positions, so we take different responsibilities, but we all have the same ideas. As long as we can complete the task successfully, it is considered a matter of handing over. But now your approach is obviously unable to achieve the results we want." Zhao Guodong said with deep meaning.

"Director Zhao, you don't have to make a puzzle for me to circle around. Tell me directly if you have any ideas. I, Xu Ming, are not a person who is not responsible." Xu Ming stared at the other party's eyes.

"Simple, we must include all the objective difficulties they have. However, we also need to join the local government's enthusiasm, the enthusiasm of the people and the preparations made in advance, so that we can gain recognition from the local government." Zhao Guodong saw Xu Ming shook his head repeatedly, and said to himself: "As for our evaluation team's opinions, we can wait for the complete summary of the evaluation data of the entire line to make an opinion."

"Director Zhao, I know what you think, but this method is not feasible at all. Tang Jiang is like this. Pennsylvania will only be tougher. When the two sides are combined, it will only be worse. They will not sign now. In the end, the conflicts will be concentrated on me. Humph, you are putting me to death." Xu Ming sneered, "I am not younger than you. You can get up if you fall."

"Then Director Xu, do you think you can pass the situation now?" Zhao Guodong also tore through the veil of warmth and said coldly: "The Tangjiang Municipal Government has sent someone to sort out the materials and prepare to directly report the work of our assessment team to the provincial government. Who do you think should bear this responsibility?!"

Xu Ming was shocked. He didn't expect that Tangjiang City would be so terrible and would really force himself into a dead end?

Xu Ming felt dizzy and was in a state of high tension these two days. The leaders of Tangjiang City were nominally here to cooperate with the work, but they were all questioning the situation they had collected and understood. In fact, many situations were indeed placed on the leaders' desks, but now they were going to pick the bones in the nitpicking eggs. How could Tangjiang not react strongly?

"Director Xu, it's better to take a rest if you are unwell." Zhao Guodong said with some advice.

Xu Ming's eyes lit up, as if he tasted a little of it, but his face was full of pain, "Oh, sorry, I've had high blood pressure, Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhang!"

When Director Xu Ming of the Provincial Planning Commission was admitted to the senior officer ward of Tangjiang First People's Hospital due to excessive fatigue, the work of the evaluation team was successfully carried out. Some of the previous disputes were solved immediately. Tangjiang City also made some concessions and agreed to make some modifications on some key issues in accordance with the requirements of the Provincial Planning Commission. The evaluation team also wrote a lot of work done by Tangjiang in the early stage, and focused on analyzing and evaluating the difficulties that Angui Expressway may encounter in the Tangjiang section and the effective measures taken by Tangjiang City to solve the problems that may arise.

Although the evaluation report cannot satisfy everyone, it can be regarded as meeting the intentions of both parties. Zhao Guodong, who temporarily presided over the work of the evaluation team, quickly cut off the mess. After solving the Tangjiang problem in half a day, he spent another day to implement the Rongshan section problem, and then rushed to Pennsylvania without stopping, completing the Pennsylvania regional situation assessment in three days.

The answers submitted by Pennsylvania are more rich and detailed, and have even refined the work plans that every town and village needs to do. This makes Zhao Guodong admire Liu Daoyuan's organizational and mobilization ability and decision-making ability. No wonder Mianzhou and Jianyang are so nervous. Compared with the preparations made by Pennsylvania, Tang Jiang thought he had spent a lot of effort, but there was still a considerable gap.

After having dinner with the leaders of Pennsylvania at the Sanyuanhong Hotel, Liu Daoyuan, member of the Pennsylvania Prefectural Committee, Executive Deputy Commissioner Liao Yongding, member of the Pennsylvania Prefectural Committee and Secretary-General Wang Yunshan, stayed there.

"Guodong, you have known Commissioner Liao and Secretary Wang. It seems that your assessment is constantly turbulent. I heard that firecrackers have even begun to set off firecrackers to celebrate the Anyu Expressway is about to get on the horse." Although Liu Daoyuan could not see any expression, Zhao Guodong could feel the burning and anxiety in the other party's heart.

There are two major events in Pennsylvania now. One thing is that the Angui Expressway is launched, and the other big event is that the Pennsylvania area is about to be abolished and the Prefectural Party Committee Secretary Liu Daoyuan is responsible for the Angui Expressway project, while the Abolishment and Urban Development Bureau Commissioner Sun Yifu is fully responsible for the removal of the Angui Expressway.

"Secretary Liu, Commissioner Liao, Secretary Wang, I dare not be fooled in front of you. The Anyu Expressway is undoubtedly higher than the Anyu Expressway in terms of return on investment only. Whether the province adopts part of the loan investment by finance or top financing, the Anyu Expressway is more optimistic. Therefore, this is probably the main reason why the province tends to get on the Ma'anyu Expressway first. Secretary Liu is also familiar with our Director Cai. You are also very clear about the opinions in the department. It is a dilemma. Even if Director Cai wants to protect the Anyu Expressway, the decision is not in our hands."

Zhao Guodong was also very calm and expressed his opinion without reservation. "As for this re-evaluation, I don't think the province pays attention to it. Unless the province can find another financing channel, this evaluation report will not affect the province's decision."

He sighed softly, and Liu Daoyuan had actually known the result for a long time.

The economic advantages of Mianzhou and Jianyang determine that the Anyu Expressway will be launched first. At present, leaders can only focus on economic indicators. As for local economic development, need to improve transportation, farmers need to get rid of poverty and become rich, and grassroots governments need to improve people's livelihood, these are all big slogans. Economy is needed everywhere, poor people everywhere, and everyone needs to get rid of poverty and become rich. However, the money is only so big, and when stuffed into this mouth, there will naturally be only hungry over there.

The problem is that the belly of Pennsylvania is getting hungry and getting flatter. Jianyang and Mianzhou are adding icing on the cake. It is right to let some people get rich first, but they also have to consider the issue of getting rich together. The provincial party committee and government should have a higher eye on this point.

"Guodong, do you think there is no hope at all on Angui Expressway?" Liu Daoyuan snorted softly.

"It's not that there is no hope. Angui Expressway will be repaired sooner or later. However, as soon as the Anyu Expressway is on board, it will basically completely delay the provincial finances unless it is found another way." Zhao Guodong was not easy to say it clearly at this time. In fact, he was already looking for opportunities when he learned that he was about to take office as deputy director of the expressway office.

Funding is the biggest problem that plagues any local government on highway construction. Just relying on fiscal investment or guarantees, it can only develop at the regular speed. Anyuan transportation is already behind. If you want to develop leapfrog, you must take extraordinary measures.

Adopting the bot method to open up overseas funds, forming joint ventures to raise funds, and even adopting ABS bond-based financing are common ways to integrate international practices into China's reality in the future. However, in this era, it was a bit outrageous. Not to mention that the provincial level is approaching, I am afraid that it may not be acceptable to get it from the State Planning Commission and the Ministry of Transport.

But Zhao Guodong also thought that since he came to this expressway and had some memories of the dreams of future generations, why can't we let the measures that gradually become routine become reality ten years ahead of schedule? Of course, I don't know how many obstacles you need to overcome behind this, but as long as there is hope, Zhao Guodong thinks you can give it a try.
