Chapter 271 Qi Tongwei gets funding, Li Dakang is upset.
After Qi Tongwei left, Fan Shichang made a phone call to Zhang Zhengyang.
"Governor Zhengyang, what have you been busy with lately?"
Fan Shichang didn't bring up Qi Tongwei's matter directly, but instead started by talking about everyday things.
"Secretary Shichang, still the same as always!"
Zhang Zhengyang said.
As the vice governor in charge of transportation and other related work, he is quite busy.
But compared to the provincial party secretary and governor, they are not considered busy.
"Governor Zhengyang, I just learned that Jinshan County in Lüzhou is even poorer than we knew..."
Jinshan County plans to develop through road construction, aiming to help its 600,000 residents live a better life as soon as possible. You should provide more support!
"With the development of Jinshan County, its 600,000 residents will be able to escape poverty."
After chatting for a while, Fan Shichang got to the point and talked about the current situation in Jinshan County.
He was also asked to support road construction in Jinshan County.
"Secretary Shichang, as the vice governor in charge of transportation and other work, I have an unshirkable responsibility to improve the transportation in Handong."
Don't worry, I will support the road construction in Jinshan County as much as possible.
Zhang Zhengyang said.
Judging from the previous personnel adjustments by the provincial party committee and government, Fan Shichang has significant connections in the central government.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to oust Liang Qunfeng to become the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee.
Zhang Zhengyang has been the vice governor for several years and wants to advance further to become a member of the provincial party committee standing committee.
To become a member of the provincial party committee standing committee, one not only needs to have outstanding achievements, but also needs strong support from others.
His relationship is over; he needs a new one.
Fan Shichang was the new relationship he was looking for.
Therefore, Fan Shichang gave him a heads-up, and he will take it seriously.
"Thank you, Governor Zhengyang. Let's grab a couple of drinks sometime!"
Fan Shichang said.
Since he had asked Zhang Zhengyang for help, he certainly couldn't leave without giving anything in return.
"Great! It's my honor to have a drink with Secretary Shichang!"
Zhang Zhengyang said.
Since Fan Shichang had this intention, he naturally wouldn't miss it.
"Director Jiang, this is Zeng Yishan. I need your help with something!"
Meanwhile, Zeng Yishan also called Jiang Wei, the director of the Department of Transportation.
"Minister Zeng, please give your instructions!"
Jiang Wei was flattered to receive the call.
The fact that Zeng Yishan, the new member of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee, asked him for help was a great opportunity to gain Zeng Yishan's favor.
If he wants to advance, it's impossible for him to be promoted directly to vice governor; even becoming vice chairman of the provincial people's congress or vice chairman of the provincial political consultative conference would be difficult.
Only by first becoming the top leader in a prefecture-level city can one have the opportunity to advance.
To become the top official in a prefecture-level city, one needs a recommendation from a member of the provincial party committee standing committee.
Zeng Yishan is a provincial leader, and it is an honor for me to be asked for help by a provincial leader.
When provincial leaders ask for your help, it's just a polite gesture; in reality, they're assigning you a task.
"Director Jiang, it's like this: Jinshan County in Lüzhou plans to repair the road from the county seat to the city in order to get rid of poverty as soon as possible."
However, Jinshan County is very poor and cannot afford the funds on its own, so it needs help from higher levels of government!
The deputy secretary of the Jinshan County Party Committee and executive deputy county head has already gone to your Department of Transportation with an application. Please take note of this matter.
And provide some support to Jinshan County!
Zeng Yishan explained the situation.
"Yes, Minister Zeng, the Transportation Department will provide as much support as possible to Jinshan County!"
Jiang Wei immediately made a guarantee after hearing this.
"Thank you, Director Jiang. I won't bother you any longer!"
Having received Jiang Wei's definite answer, Zeng Yishan prepared to accept the call.
"Minister Zeng, you're too kind. It's all I should do!"
Jiang Wei quickly said.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Wei began to pay attention to the road construction in Jinshan County.
Upon returning to the hotel, Qi Tongwei immediately instructed Ma Ningtao to go back to Jinshan County and open a special account.
Qi Tongwei, along with Du Qiang, continued to visit the Department of Transportation and the provincial government to apply for funding.
Although Zeng Yishan and Fan Shichang will help, you still need to do the intermediate procedures yourself.
Soon, Qi Tongwei received a notification that the Department of Transportation had approved Jinshan County's construction of a high-standard highway connecting the county seat to the city and allocated 1000 million yuan in funding.
Subsequently, the provincial government also approved Jinshan County's plan to build a high-standard highway connecting the county to the city, and allocated 2000 million yuan.
The funds were quickly transferred to the account that Qi Tongwei had Ma Ningtao set up.
Qi Tongwei, accompanied by Du Qiang, went to express their gratitude to the relevant leaders of the Department of Transportation and Vice Governor Zhang Zhengyang.
Thanks to Zeng Yishan and Fan Shichang.
Not long after, the Municipal Transportation Bureau also approved Jinshan County to build a high-standard highway connecting the county to the city and allocated 200 million yuan.
The municipal government also approved Jinshan County's plan to build a high-standard highway connecting the county to the city, allocating 500 million yuan.
Qi Tongwei brought Du Qiang back to Lüzhou and thanked the relevant leaders of the Transportation Bureau, Vice Mayor Du Lianfeng, and Mayor Luo Zhenbang.
When the news reached Jinshan County, many people were overjoyed.
The province and city have allocated funds, so the road from Jinshan County to Luzhou City can be properly repaired.
By next year, transportation between Jinshan County and Luzhou City will be much better.
On the other hand, Li Dakang was unhappy.
Qi Tongwei secured 3700 million yuan from the provincial and municipal governments, allowing the road from Jinshan County to Lüzhou City to be built to high standards.
In this way, the difficulties he had set for Qi Tongwei when he gave him the documents were easily overcome by Qi Tongwei.
What's even more infuriating is that Qi Tongwei got the money and can start building the road.
On his side, however, the funds for road construction are still far from sufficient.
Those companies, whether they are county-owned or private, are unwilling to pay.
And among those shops, very few are willing to pay.
Only cadres, teachers, and medical staff paid one month's salary.
Raising funds is still far from his goal, and it's basically impossible to properly repair all the roads in the county according to his ideas.
If we don't find a way to raise funds, we'll be left far behind by Qi Tongwei.
When that happens, people will say he's not as good as Qi Tongwei.
"Do we really have to ask our superiors for help?"
If you ask your superiors for help, you will definitely get more funding than Qi Tongwei.
After all, the leader is the executive vice governor, whose power is greater than that of Zhang Zhengyang, the vice governor in charge of transportation.
With the funds he has raised during this period, he will be able to build even more roads.
But once he asks his superiors for help, it gives people the impression that he is incompetent and only relies on his superiors.
The leader will also think that he is not capable and always asks him for help with everything.
But how can we raise funds without asking our superiors for help?
Are they forcibly conscripting people?
Li Dakang was conflicted.
Upon returning to the county, Qi Tongwei first reported the results of his funding application to Li Dakang and Yi Xuexi.
Then, 200 million yuan was allocated to the Transportation Bureau to begin repairing the old road from the county seat to the urban area of Luzhou.
He urged Lin Haiyang, who was assisting him, to expedite the planning and design of the new route.
And Lin Haiyang was asked to add a first-class highway route planning and design.
Qi Tongwei has invited the provincial geological team to explore the mineral deposits in Jinshan County. If mineral resources are found in Jinshan County, the reserves are expected to be substantial.
Qi Tongwei would use the mining rights he sold to build secondary or even primary highways connecting the county to the city.
If we're going to build a road, we need to build a good one to completely solve the problem of poor transportation conditions in Jinshan County.
