Director Jia of the county government office encountered obstacles in several provincial-level functional departments. None of the mining procedures were implemented, and the mining project was reported. He felt that the problem was serious and had to report the situation to the county government leader.

After understanding the situation, even though he knew that the Changda Group was obstructing the mining project in the northern mountainous area, County Magistrate Hong did not feel that the matter was that bad. He still decided to proceed with the project as planned. Director Jia reminded: "County Magistrate Hong, should we

Do you need to meet Guan Yuntian and communicate with him face to face?"

"The new team should have visited the Changda Group when they took office. However, when we first arrived, we were busy familiarizing ourselves with the situation and coordinating the relationships between various parties. In addition, we did not know much about the Changda Group at that time, so we missed the opportunity. I feel that now

It’s not appropriate to meet with them. If we want to meet, we have to finish the matter later.”

"Well, the county magistrate still thought carefully. Now that he meets Guan Yuntian, he thought that the local government is asking for help from him. However, Magistrate Hong, the offices of the Department of Land and Resources and the Department of Environmental Protection are really difficult to deal with. Mining procedures

It is indeed difficult to handle. If the procedures cannot be completed, companies will not dare to invest in mining!" Director Jia said.

"What exactly did the Department of Land and Resources and the Department of Environmental Protection tell you?"

"The Department of Land and Resources uses a mineral resources policy card. I told them that although small and medium-sized mining projects are now strictly controlled, special cases should be dealt with. This mineral deposit in the northern mountainous area of ​​Fuyuan County has been discovered for 50 or 60 years and should be mined now.

It benefits the people, but the staff are unmoved and do not take the demands of the local government to heart. As for the environmental protection department, their attitude is even more arrogant. They directly shut me out. No matter how good our environmental impact assessment report is,

They all ignored it."

"Why is that?"

"They believe that mining companies often say one thing and do another, and only care about making money without caring about environmental protection, so they refuse to let the project go."

County Magistrate Hong thought for a moment and said, "You will accompany me to the provincial capital in two days."

As the head of a county, he always has some connections and resources in the political circles. Since he has hit a wall in handling the mining procedures, Lao Hong still insists on pushing the project forward, which shows that he has a countermeasure.

It turns out that one of Lao Hong's college classmates is now a division-level cadre in the Provincial Government Office. Although his official rank is not high, he has a special position. It is said that all government agencies at the department level will give him face.

Lao Hong had been in close contact with the classmate. When he told the other party his thoughts on the phone, the classmate agreed to help mediate.

Three days later, Director Jia accompanied Magistrate Hong to the provincial capital. They first stayed in a five-star hotel. Lao Hong made an agreement with his classmate to meet at the hotel in the evening.

When the matter was discussed at the wine table that night, the classmate surnamed Zhu found it incomprehensible, "Isn't it just a mining license? Isn't it worth all the effort?"

"Old classmate, you live in a temple, so of course you don't know the ups and downs of being far away from the world!" County Magistrate Hong seemed to have a bitter feeling.

"Hahaha, what are you doing? You are also a prince. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. You are free and comfortable. It's so comfortable! It's not like us who are right under the leader's nose and have no freedom at all."

"It's so comfortable! I'm so worried that I can't even sleep. A political achievement is so overwhelming that I can't breathe. If it weren't for political achievements, I wouldn't want to do this job.

Where is my heart?"

"What I just said was a joke. In fact, it is not easy in any position. But I don't understand, is it so difficult to get a mining license?" Director Zhu has never been at the grassroots level and is not clear about the specific matters.

"To be honest, the above policies do strictly control small and medium-sized mining projects. We are also aware of this, but that is for enterprises. This is a government action. I think the demands of functional departments on local governments cannot be compared with

Treat them the same as businesses.”

"Yes, some functional departments are dogmatic in their work and do everything one-size-fits-all. Tomorrow I will take you directly to the leaders of the Department of Land and Resources to ask them to be more lenient. However, this environmental protection issue is a one-vote veto! This is not easy to handle.

"Director Zhu said.

"We have measures to deal with environmental protection issues. We cannot do nothing just because the mineral processing process produces wastewater. If so, wouldn't humans want to return to primitive society? As long as there are human activities, they will inevitably have an impact on the environment. We cannot stop eating because of choking.

, otherwise human society will stagnate. Wastewater pollution is not terrible. As long as it is properly controlled, it will not cause harm to the environment." County Magistrate Hong said clearly.

"So, the environmental protection department is also making a fuss out of a molehill. It doesn't matter. We'll meet with their leaders tomorrow. If you have any requests, you might as well just tell them."

...

The next morning, Director Zhu contacted Deputy Director Guo, who was in charge of resource extraction in the Department of Land and Resources. After explaining the situation, he took Lao Hong to the Department of Land and Resources. In Lao Guo's office, Lao Zhu gave a brief summary of the situation.

Introduction, and then said: "Guo Ting, Magistrate Hong is my college classmate, do you think you can give them a green light?"

"For the mining project in Fuyuan County, Director Xiong, who is in charge of this business, has told me, Director Zhu, the current policy is very strict on small and medium-sized mining projects. You asked me to give them the green light. This is for me."

What a problem!"

"Actually, it's not difficult. The policy requires strict control, but it's not completely stuck! Besides, policies are generally aimed at enterprises. Mayor Hong's project is a government action and is a special situation. You have to do something special.

Well, let’s be lenient with them.”

Deputy Director Guo also felt helpless in response to Lao Zhu's insistence. Although the Director Zhu in front of him was only a division-level official, his position was very important. If he was not given face, it would be difficult to meet him in the future.

Talk. The policy strictly controls small and medium-sized mining projects and does not distinguish between corporate behavior and government behavior. Lao Zhu proposed such an excuse just to skirt the policy. However, if you want to allow mining projects in Fuyuan County, this is appropriate.

reasons.

"What's going on with the report letter? Your project has not been approved yet, but someone has reported it. This is also what makes us embarrassed." Lao Guo's insistence seems to have loosened, and he wants to give Lao Zhu this face.

County Magistrate Hong took over, "Where the mineral deposits are located, there is an agricultural poverty alleviation project developed by a company called Changda Group. They may think that mining will have an impact on their agricultural projects. They probably wrote the report letter. But they did not

Without understanding the actual situation, the mining project will definitely not affect the agricultural project, and we have already verified it with experts."

"So that's what happened? Then let me tell you, I will definitely give Director Zhu's face. The premise is that you go back and handle this matter well. The agricultural poverty alleviation project must not be destroyed.

That's the bottom line!" Due to Lao Zhu's face, Lao Guo told the truth.

"What does Guo Ting mean, as long as the county handles the agricultural project of Changda Group, it can issue us a mining license?" Lao Hong wanted to confirm again.

"You must remember my premise, fully communicate with Changda Group, and do not cause damage to the agricultural poverty alleviation project!" Lao Guo emphasized again.

I have to say that Lao Hong has a really good relationship with his old classmate. Otherwise, Director Zhu would not work so hard for him. After coming out of the Land and Resources Department, having lunch in a restaurant and taking a short rest, that afternoon, Lao Zhu

He took Magistrate Hong straight to the Environmental Protection Department and met the deputy director in charge. Lao Zhu explained his purpose and hoped to be taken care of.

"Environmental protection issues are actually for the sake of your local area, and we are not deliberately trying to make things difficult for you. Isn't it nice to have beautiful mountains and clear waters, blue skies and white clouds? As a functional department, we have leadership responsibilities. How to do it depends mainly on your grassroots leadership."

"We understand the truth, but the local economy also needs to develop. Leaders, please rest assured that we will definitely handle the relationship between the two," said Magistrate Hong.

"Director Zhu, please let them go back. As long as they see the mining license and environmental protection, I can let them go."

It should be said that it is very ideal for things to be done to this extent!

After leaving the Environmental Protection Department, Lao Zhu rushed back to his work unit. When leaving, he suggested to County Magistrate Hong that he go back and seize the time to do the work of Changda Group, and at least stop reporting.

Back at the hotel, County Magistrate Hong and Director Jia did not go back to their respective rooms. Instead, they sat down on a sofa in the corner of the reception hall. "What do you think of the effect of this trip?" Lao Hong asked.

Director Jia, who only accompanied him and said nothing during the whole journey, felt that Lao Hong's question was a bit sudden, "The effect? ​​Good, of course it is good! When the big leader comes forward, the effect is different."

"What should we do next?"

"Didn't Deputy Director Guo of the Department of Land and Resources say that as long as we communicate with Changda Group, he will issue a mining license. When we return, we will communicate with Guan Yuntian."

"Who communicates with Guan Yuntian? You or me?" County Magistrate Hong was undecided about this move.

"Last time on the phone, Guan Yuntian and I had already reached an impasse. If we try to communicate with him again, I'm afraid there won't be any good results. You are a big leader, is it appropriate to come forward directly?" This kind of thing is something Lao Jia, a subordinate, cannot do.

, I really can’t say.

"It doesn't matter if I come forward. The key is that Guan Yuntian and I are strangers. We discussed such a difficult matter for the first time when we met. It's okay if we can talk about it well. If we don't talk about it well, the situation will definitely be embarrassing." In fact, Lao Hong still refused to let go.

shelf.

"How about this? Don't the county government have two deputy county magistrates who stayed from the previous team? Let them communicate with Guan Yuntian." Lao Jia suggested.

"Oh, one is in charge of culture, education and health, and the other is in charge of urban construction planning. How do you ask them to communicate with Guan Yuntian? More importantly, the two deputy county magistrates did not agree to exploit the mineral deposits in the northern mountainous area. They and Guan Yuntian are

One heart!"

Lao Jia disagreed, "County Magistrate Hong, our organizational principle is democratic centralism, and the minority obeys the majority. Although they disagree with the mining project in the northern mountainous area, it is only the opinion of a minority. Since a decision has been made at that time, the two of them
