Rebirth of Minister Qi

Chapter 960 Different Concepts

After listening to Qi Tongwei's words, Xiao Liang knew what he should do this time. He nodded seriously and accepted the task.

"Since you have figured it out, you will be the one assisting Chen Hai in carrying out this mission.

Let Mangchuang take care of the daily work here for now."

Xiao Liang knew that this was a major topic for him. Qi Tongwei had already said that his position would change in the second half of this year.

Whether Xiao Liang will follow him to the lower provinces or go to other departments on his own depends on how much he has learned.

The substitute player Mang Chuang came in immediately and stood by, as Qi Tongwei still had a lot of things to do in the afternoon.

Qi Tongwei came to the third inspection room in person, and Li Hainiao and the deputies were reporting to Qi Tongwei on the situation in Hanjiang Province.

“What is the specific situation?

Tell me more about it.”

Li Hainiao began to report to Qi Tongwei on the fierce fighting in Hanjiang Province.

On the other hand, the Hanjiang Provincial Government held its first quarter executive meeting again.

Jin Xinkai sat in the first seat. His deputy, the executive vice governor, was transferred from Zhili Province. His original position was the head of an important economic city. His name was Wang Yanqian.

Wang Yanqian spoke.

"We will continue to implement the real estate control policies clearly defined by our superiors and adhere to the principle of housing for living, not for speculation.

In the next five years, our province will ensure a net inflow of population into large cities, such as Jinchuan City and Wenshan City, and strive to achieve a proportion of more than 30% of new affordable rental housing, and more than 15% in other key cities.

Second, land and supply optimization: revitalize existing resources and adjust land use structure...

Third, adjust the real estate sales policy, no longer issue sales certificates for buildings under construction, and promote the sale of existing homes as much as possible..."

There are several key points, including suspending several current commercial land auctions and instead converting these lands into affordable housing and public rental housing to provide cheap housing for migrant workers.

During the meeting, the mayor of Jinchuan City, Yue Ting, who also serves as the vice governor, could not wait to speak.

“Governor Jin, these land auctions were booked long ago by Jinchuan City.

The financial funds obtained from land auctions are also intended to alleviate the financial pressure on the city and the province.

It’s not appropriate to change the nature of the land like this.”

Before the top two leaders of the provincial government had even spoken, a deputy with a lower ranking took over, which is rare at any level.

At that time, Jin Xinkai and Qi Tongwei both had strong backgrounds, and they did not dare to question their leaders in this way at the meeting in Dong'ou City.

Jin Xinkai's eyes narrowed immediately. Yue Ting himself didn't dare to say this, it was just Shi Yanan behind him who wanted to ask.

Shi Yanan had already divided the expected returns from several land auctions. Now that Jin Xinkai wants to stop this one, it will inevitably hit the pain points of many people.

Do you know why Li Yuanchao and his gang, with only 200 billion yuan, are using it to drive up housing prices across the country and buy up properties in second-tier cities?

The root cause is that they are not the ones who benefit the most. Instead, the local governments benefit the most from rising housing prices. They can directly raise the land auction prices and create one piece of land king after another. After getting the money, they fill the big holes left by previous unreliable leaders.

For example, the wrong policy direction left by Pei Yihong caused other cities in the province to support so many freeloaders in vain, and those ambitious cadres were able to build ugly buildings.

These all cost money, a lot of money. After the government borrows money to pay for these officials' wrong decisions, it has no other channels to fill the hole.

The money obtained from land auctions can just be used to repay these debts. This is the case in Hanjiang Province. Whether it is Jinchuan City or other cities, they all hope that housing prices will rise so that they can hold a wave of land auctions.

The second entity to profit is the bank. I will not go into detail on how the banks make profits, so as to avoid being beaten to death by the censors.

In short, Li Yuanchao and his team were full of confidence because they knew that local governments needed money from selling land and would actively cooperate with them.

This is exactly the case now. Jin Xinkai and Wang Yanqian want to implement the policy of "housing for living, not for speculation", but Shi Yanan, the top leader, secretly supports cadres from various cities and counties to go against the provincial government.

Wang Yanqian was very angry when he saw that his speech was interrupted.

"Comrade Yue Ting, you will have a speech later. Please finish listening to the policy presentation now."

Yue Ting refused to give in.

“Governor Jin, maybe you haven’t been here long and don’t understand the current situation of our Han River Province.

Many prefecture-level cities are unable to pay salaries and can only pay civil servants’ salaries first. Salaries for employees in enterprises and institutions are paid once every two or three months.

You say it's easy, there's no land auction, but where are the salaries of so many officials going to come from?"

This speech simply ignored Wang Yanqian, the executive vice governor, and he stopped speaking and even put down his manuscript.

"Vice Governor Yue, please return to your seat and speak first."

Only then did Yue Ting reluctantly sit back in his original seat.

Jin Xinkai looked at the members of the provincial government team. Everyone had different expressions, but one thing was certain.

This group of parachuted cadres are not welcomed by local cadres, and the reason is very simple.

One is that they occupied the channel for local cadres to rise. Originally, after several successive provincial party committees in Hanjiang Province, the structure below had become very stable.

Most people took over in sequence, sitting in a row and sharing the fruits of their labor. Suddenly, several cadres were parachuted in, at the provincial party committee level, which naturally affected the overall situation and the speed of their progress.

Another point is that the above policies conflict with their local interests, the two most direct ones are.

One is to clean up redundant positions. These redundant positions are all relatives and friends of local cadres. Taking away their jobs will definitely offend them.

The second is the real estate policy. Many cities are waiting for the money from land auctions to make a profit. Now the provincial government must resolutely implement the above policies. If it does not conduct land auctions, what is the point of building affordable housing?

What should they do with the debts accumulated by these cities? They still have many projects in the pipeline.

In fact, there is a third article, which is that the provincial government has restricted many new large projects, but this article has not been approved for a long time, and the turmoil it has caused is not as big as the above two articles.

This is actually a typical conflict between the central government and local governments. Local governments want to live a more comfortable life, while officials do some small things for the sake of their relatives and friends.

But from the above point of view, if these points are not implemented and the wounds are not mended, the finances of Han River Province will face collapse.

After the meeting, in the governor’s office.

Wang Yanqian rarely threw the documents in his hands on the table. He had been in politics all his life and had never encountered such a situation.

It seemed as if everyone in Hanjiang Province was excluding them.

“Governor, these people are getting more and more excessive. Now Jinchuan City is dragging its feet on implementing many policies of the provincial government.

How do we accomplish the above tasks?"
