Chapter 54: Surface

Zhao Guodong made an explanation of the economic development ideas of Hualin County in 1997 at the Standing Committee and the County Government Office Meeting. Relying on the construction of the forage base in the northern Qiu District, the construction of the forestry and fruit base in the southern Qiu District and the development of the suburbs agricultural vegetable and fruit industry, we encourage the development of the tea-making industry and tourism industry, and take advantage of the opportunity of old city renovation to accelerate urban construction, guide the healthy development of the construction and real estate industries, and actively guide the food industry and tourism industry as the leading service industry to become the pillar industries of Hualin County.

This 1997 development plan of Hualin County, which was discussed for more than a month by Zhao Guodong and Gui Quanyou and absorbed the opinions of several deputy county magistrates, attracted great interest from the Standing Committee at the county party committee standing committee. In particular, Zhao Guodong mentioned that it was necessary to encourage the development of the dairy industry and strive to develop the dairy industry into two leading industries that are on par with the meat products processing industry. This also made the Standing Committee question the core of Hualin County's goal of adjusting the agricultural structure to directly point to the abandonment of grain production.

Especially Miao Yuehua, who is in charge of agricultural work, is even more opposed. In her opinion, the development of hilly animal husbandry and mountain forestry and fruit industry can certainly improve the agricultural efficiency of these areas, but the basic point of grain production cannot be lost, especially the construction of suburban vegetable and fruit bases. She believes that there are not many fields suitable for growing grain in Hualin County. If the suburbs are positioned as a production base that combines vegetables, fruits and animal husbandry, it means that the entire Hualin County has given up grain production, which is contrary to the country's major policies.

Cao Yuan also had limited support for Miao Yuehua's opinions, believing that the issue of developing fruit bases should focus on the southern hill area rather than the Pingba area, which would occupy effective land that could have been engaged in grain production.

However, although Cao Yuan had different opinions on Zhao Guodong's opinions, he only raised objections at the office meeting and was relatively quiet at the Standing Committee, which surprised Zhao Guodong.

"Quanyou, it seems that the ideas of our county cadres are still some problems. I went to the Agriculture Bureau to investigate and heard some opinions. They all believed that if the suburbs of the city are positioned as vegetable, fruit and dairy production bases, then Hualin County's grain production will basically be abandoned, and this basic national policy with grain as the main theme will be abandoned. Is this in line with national policy? What era is now? The term of grain as the main theme can be mentioned at the national security level, but in detail, it needs to be adapted to local conditions. Our Hualin County is not a traditional grain-producing area, and whether it is grain yield or total output, there is no mention of the whole city and the province. Why do these people just hold on to this point?"

Zhao Guodong sighed. He did not expect that the construction of a suburban modern agricultural base in the suburbs would be subject to such great doubts. In Zhao Guodong's view, Hualin County has unique soil and water and heat conditions. Especially in the suburbs, this area is also very suitable for grain production, but it is more suitable to develop modern suburbs agriculture. Greenhouse vegetables, off-season vegetables, fruits, dairy cattle breeding, and even horticultural flower industries can be vigorously developed, which is very beneficial for increasing unit land output and digesting surplus labor. However, this unexpectedly attracted so many doubts.

"Mr. Zhao, I think that although the idea you put forward has caused some reactions, it has attracted everyone's interest in general. Although there are some objections, I think it is normal to have controversy. Moreover, their opposition to doubts are different. For example, Secretary Luo and Secretary Wan questioned this question mainly because they are worried that giving up grain production is not in line with the above policies. If the city supports us in adjusting the agricultural industrial structure, I believe they will change their attitude. As for County Mayor Cao, although he has objections, I think he did not make a statement at the Standing Committee, and the most important one is County Mayor Miao. I think she mainly thinks that if you develop according to your vision, the position of the importance of agriculture in our flower forest economy will decline significantly and gradually become an auxiliary industry for other industries."

Gui Quanyou attended the county party committee standing committee and observed the performance of the leaders at the standing committee very carefully. The conclusions drawn were basically in line with Zhao Guodong's view, but Miao Yuehua's strong rebound was still somewhat beyond Zhao Guodong's surprise.

"It seems Miao Yuehua is worried that I will gradually cut off his power." Zhao Guodong sneered: "It's ridiculous to judge a gentleman by his villain's heart and think of Zhao as a character like her."

"But this is a reality. If according to the plan, mountain animal husbandry and dairy cattle breeding are both food industry services, while fruit industry also serves the food industry, now vegetable bases serve urban development, and the development of tea gardens and tea mountains serves the tea industry, and the degree of integration between them is getting closer and closer, and the work she is in charge is gradually becoming marginalized." Gui Quanyou frowned slightly and said.

"If she really wants to do more work, it would be great. I would beg for it, just because I am afraid that she doesn't want to do it or not." Zhao Guodong shook his head and smiled: "As long as he is willing to do it and is capable, I wish I could hand over all the work in my hands. I am a boss who can give me some advice, how great!"

"Haha, County Magistrate Zhao, your wish can only be ideal. County Magistrate is doing practical things. If you want to comment on others, it may not be in line with China's national conditions." Gui Quanyou also smiled, "The Party is the guiding and commenting organ. One is a matter of purity and the other is pragmatic. This is determined by our country's adherence to the principle of Communist Party leadership."

"Quanyou, what you said is wrong. The government must do practical things, but it is not inconsistent with upholding the leadership of the Party. The government carries out its work under the leadership of the Party. The Party's leadership is to lead in policies and policies, and at the same time provide guarantees in organization and personnel. The Party's leadership and work are not completely empty. It can only be said to be relatively empty. Whether in terms of decisions on policies and policies or organization and personnel, this requires the Party organization to do a lot of real research work. This is the side of the Party's pragmatic work." Zhao Guodong said calmly and did not have any anger.

"County Magistrate Zhao, why do I hear this as if it was said by a county party secretary? It doesn't seem like it was said by a county magistrate?" Gui Quanyou blinked his eyes and asked with deep meaning.

"Quanyou, you don't have to explore the news here. I am still the county magistrate, do you understand?" Zhao Guodong also heard Gui Quanyou's implication and glared at the other party, "You have the intention to think more about your work."

"Hehe, County Magistrate Zhao, I am faithfully performing my duties as the director of the county government office, and there is nothing left to you." Gui Quanyou smiled: "I heard some rumors saying that Secretary Luo might be leaving?"

"Oh?" Zhao Guodong was stunned for a moment and asked calmly: "What did you hear the wind?"

"Deputy Director Xu of the Municipal People's Congress passed away on the ninth day of the late stage of lung cancer. In addition, Deputy Director Jiang of the Municipal People's Congress resigned from his position as Deputy Director of the National People's Congress. He heard that he took his wife to his daughter to settle in the United States. He suddenly had two positions as deputy directors of the Municipal People's Congress. He thought that if he had a suitable candidate, he would have to move. Secretary Luo is now stuck at this age. If he doesn't go up, he will probably miss the opportunity. I heard that the Municipal Party Committee has a good impression of Secretary Luo, and I guess he is interested in letting Secretary Luo go to the National People's Congress."

Gui Quanyou smiled slightly, fiddling with the lid of the teacup in his hand, and said casually: "Secretary Luo is afraid that he will take this opportunity to take a step forward. Moreover, the changes and development of our flower forest in the past two years are obvious to all, which is also a result achieved under the leadership of Secretary Luo as the squad leader. I guess the municipal party committee may also intend to use Secretary Luo's example to encourage those county party secretaries of the same age in other counties."

Zhao Guodong's heart was very clear. In fact, he also received this news before the Spring Festival. At that time, Deputy Director Xu was already critically ill, and Deputy Director Jiang had officially resigned. He had a very harmonious relationship with Luo Dahai, so he informally asked Luo Dahai if he wanted to compete for the position of deputy director of the Municipal People's Congress.

Luo Dahai himself was quite interested, but he was also worried that he was not qualified enough.

He has been serving as the county party secretary for more than a year, and the position of deputy director of the municipal people's congress is generally produced among the senior deputy mayor or the member of the municipal party committee standing committee, or among the top leaders of important municipal agencies with very old qualifications. Among the county party secretary, not many are directly promoted to deputy director of the municipal people's congress. There are also very old county party secretary like Fengting Pigata who has worked for more than two terms. There is hope for him, and those who have just served as the county party secretary for more than a year seem even more thin.

At that time, he knew that he was a transitional county party secretary, waiting to go to the point of the county people's congress to be the director, and he could only retire as the county people's congress director. Unexpectedly, such a variable appeared now.

Zhao Guodong suggested that he could go for appropriate activities, find the old leaders, and visit the main leaders. Zhao Guodong also believed that Luo Dahai had worked for a lot of time with the county magistrate and county party secretary of Hualin County. Could it be that he had not laid any relationship or foundation?

Luo Dahai also followed Zhao Guodong's advice. As Zhao Guodong said, if you don't fight for it, who knows that you want to be motivated? Perhaps the leader thinks you are willing to stay in the county? Even if you fail, the leader will feel that he owes you Lao Luo a favor. In the future, when there are other arrangements, you must consider you Luo Dahai a little, right?

Later, when Zhao Guodong arranged for dinner with Qi Yuhong with Liu Daoyuan, he also vaguely heard that Qi Yuhong seemed to have such considerations, but the leaders could not make it clear whether it could be implemented. It was all slowly figured out from a lot of nonsense in the vast sky, and Zhao Guodong had no idea.
