PDLP Chapter 216 The Next Focus of Yunmeng Town
Chapter 216 The Next Focus of Yunmeng Town
“Mayor Yue, I think it’s important for the township to have businesses, as this would greatly help increase GDP and tax revenue.”
Without businesses, Yunmeng Town's GDP cannot grow rapidly, and tax revenue cannot increase significantly.
"Secretary Qi, we are also trying our best, but because of the county's preferential policies, private individuals are unwilling to invest in the town!"
Yue Yunfei said helplessly, "The town is no match for the county."
"If private individuals are unwilling to invest, then let the town invest! Let's make use of all those empty factory buildings!"
Since private individuals are unwilling to invest, investment can only come from the town.
"Okay, Secretary Qi, but the town doesn't have much funding to offer!"
Yue Yunfei said that Yunmeng Town's fiscal revenue is good, but its expenses are also high.
"First, see how much funding the town can provide, and then we'll discuss it further!"
By the way, what are your thoughts on vegetable farming and lobster farming?
The main tasks of vegetable planting and crayfish farming still require the strong support of Mayor Yue Yunfei.
"This is a good thing. First, it can increase the income of the people; second, it can increase the town's GDP; and third, it can improve the town's transportation conditions."
Although our town is the county seat and has much better transportation conditions than other towns, many villages in the town still do not have access to roads.
The town can use this opportunity to build roads for villages that have almost no road access!
Yue Yunfei said.
He understood Qi Tongwei's meaning, worrying that his opposition or lack of attention would hinder the promotion of vegetable planting and crayfish farming.
But Qi Tongwei was completely overthinking it. Vegetable planting and crayfish farming are both things that are easy to achieve results, so how could he not do them?
Moreover, this is being promoted throughout the county. If he doesn't take it seriously, he will offend not only Qi Tongwei, but also County Head Fang Zhigang.
Who wouldn't want to be like Biyun Township, generating nearly 30 million in GDP a year?
In that way, Yunmeng Town's GDP can reach the current level of Biyun Township next year.
By the year after next, Yunmeng Town will also become a town with an annual output value of 100 million yuan.
"You just need to understand their benefits. Although they may not generate profits this year, they will definitely generate significant profits next year."
"Scal up the scale, delegate the tasks, and tell the villages to go all out; the town will take care of the sales."
Qi Tongwei said.
He'll handle the sales issues; you just need to focus on your work.
"Yes, Secretary Qi!"
Yue Yunfei believed that Qi Tongwei was not lying. The reason why crayfish farming in Biyun Township had achieved such good results was because Qi Tongwei had found a sales channel in Hong Kong.
With Qi Tongwei around, there's no need to worry about the development of Yunmeng Town.
Afterwards, Qi Tongwei called on other town officials from Yunmeng Town to learn about the work in the township.
Having gained a fairly comprehensive understanding, Qi Tongwei convened a meeting of the Party and government leadership.
"I've talked with everyone in turn over the past few days and have gained a general understanding of the work in the town."
All work in our town is progressing smoothly, and the goals set at the beginning of the year should be achieved smoothly, or even exceeded.
But don't get complacent because of this!
Our achievements are nothing at all.
For the past few years, our town has been the top town among the thirteen townships in the county, but this year, our town will be overtaken by Biyun Township and become the second largest.
Moreover, there will be a huge gap between it and Biyun Township, which is in first place.
Qi Tongwei immediately instilled a sense of urgency in everyone. Although the goals set at the beginning of the year had been successfully achieved, they were already far behind Biyun Township.
No one spoke; it was a fact they couldn't refute.
Biyun Township has now far surpassed Yunmeng Town, and the gap between the two will be even greater by the end of the year.
"Of course, everyone doesn't need to worry too much. I won't let our town fall too far behind Biyun Township."
Therefore, in the next four months, while doing our existing work well, we need to find ways to increase the town's GDP and prepare for development next year.
Vegetable cultivation can generate profits this year, so we need to hurry up and promote it.
Lobster farming will only generate local economic benefits next year, but it can bring tens of millions of yuan in GDP.
Therefore, these two tasks should be the focus of the town's work going forward.
"Deputy Township Head Qiu, these are your responsibilities. You must take charge of these two tasks and complete them as soon as possible."
Qi Tongwei said that vegetable planting and crayfish farming are the key tasks going forward.
"Yes, Secretary Qi, I will definitely do these two tasks well!"
Qiu Rengui nodded; he was already making arrangements for this.
“Our town currently has no businesses, so we need to find ways to attract them.”
With businesses, our town's GDP and tax revenue will increase rapidly.
I know it's difficult to attract businesses because the county has introduced policies to attract companies to set up factories near Lehai Garment Factory.
However, we can leverage our own resources to attract businesses.
I heard from Mayor Yue that there are many vacant sites and factory buildings in the township, which can be used by them for free for a few years.
In addition, the town itself can also invest in and build businesses. Everyone should go down and think about what the town can do.
Then, we need to improve transportation conditions in all villages throughout the town, which can be done in conjunction with crayfish farming.
The next step is to improve teaching quality, which requires regular training for all teachers in the township.
Finally, regarding publicity, the town should actively promote national policies, specifically educate the people on legal knowledge, and incidentally provide literacy education for illiterate residents.
Qi Tongwei continued, outlining several key areas of Yunmeng Town, which were areas where significant progress could be made.
"Yes, Secretary Qi!"
The crowd nodded in agreement, saying that Qi Tongwei was working as an operator in Biyun Township, and they only needed to follow his instructions.
In the days that followed, Qi Tongwei began to conduct research in rural areas. As the Party Secretary of Yunmeng Town, he needed to have a basic understanding of the town.
At the same time, it also serves to supervise the progress of vegetable planting and crayfish farming.
Of course, Qi Tongwei did not forget to promote the achievements of Biyun Township in planting vegetables and raising crayfish, which impressed the people of all 19 villages in the town.
In Biyun Township at that time, cadres took the lead in carrying out the work, and Qi Tongwei assigned tasks to each cadre.
Of course, their family also gained a huge income as a result.
Thanks to Qi Tongwei's promotion and introduction, many villagers in Yunmeng Town are willing to grow vegetables and raise crayfish.
This accelerated the progress of both tasks.
After traveling for half a month, Qi Tongwei had a general understanding of the 19 villages in Yunmeng Town.
Seeing that vegetable cultivation had been successfully promoted and many people were already digging ponds, Qi Tongwei felt relieved.
Qi Tongwei met with teachers from Handong Agricultural University to discuss further cooperation.
In the past, vegetable cultivation and crayfish farming were only carried out in Biyun Township, and there was not much need for teachers.
Currently, all 13 townships in the county are engaged in vegetable cultivation and crayfish farming, which increases the demand for teachers.
Moreover, in the past, we cooperated with Biyun Township, but now we are cooperating with Yunmeng County.
