Chapter 312 Waste is Shameful
Chapter 312 Waste is Shameful
Liu Zhiming has even developed a systematic development strategy.
For example, integrating social capital for joint investment;
Acquire rural land resources through equity swaps to reduce upfront investment;
Initiate cultural activities such as rural reading in the local area, cultivate and create cultural symbols, encourage and support rural poets, singers, writers and other literary and artistic practitioners, and effectively promote the positive impact of culture on the region;
Renovate or rebuild on the original site whenever possible, rather than investing in building too many new sites;
A publicity team was established to work with the local villagers before the pilot development began, and it was essential to get them to cooperate.
This is the most crucial step.
It's impossible to get anything done in rural areas without the support of local farmers.
To put it bluntly, it's easy for a car to get in, but it'll get a flat tire coming out, and you still won't be able to catch the culprit...
Many of his thoughts resonated with Ding Tingting and Dawei.
This caused Dawei and Tingting to exchange glances from time to time, both of them somewhat surprised.
After listening to Coach Liu's ideas, Tingting looked at him with great approval: "Executive Liu, we should have communicated this a long time ago."
After hearing your thoughts, I realize that I still have many shortcomings.
You're often on the front lines, so you see more problems than we can.
I want to learn from you.
In this respect, you are our teacher.
Liu Zhiming was a little flustered when he heard this: "This... I dare not accept this."
Look at my mouth.
They either don't speak, or when they do, they pretend not to listen.
Please excuse my poor appearance.
Dawei quickly replied, "Executive Liu is too modest."
Objectively speaking, your idea is very forward-thinking and practical.
It seems that entrusting you with the responsibility of agriculture, culture, and tourism was the right decision.
I'm relieved.
Liu Zhiming was pleased to hear this, but his face remained humble and apprehensive: "Thank you for the trust of the county party committee and county government, and thank you County Chief Chen for giving me this opportunity."
Next, Liu Zhiming, along with people from the cultural and tourism departments and Ding Tingting, went to the countryside to conduct on-site inspections of some agricultural, cultural, and tourism resources in Yuanshan County.
Because it's a pilot program, the financial support that the province can provide is limited.
Therefore, the development pilot projects we are looking for this time are mainly based on villages, to create small but beautiful pilot projects, and to establish models with limited funds.
The main purpose is to show everyone the actual changes brought about by the model.
They were busy until evening, and only returned home after having dinner in the village.
David's plan to treat everyone had to be put on hold.
Ding Tingting didn't let this go and sent a message to Dawei.
"I'm going back to the hotel now."
Similar to that, I was covered in sweat, and my socks were soaked.
I'm going to take a shower and rest for a while.
"When you're done with your work, come find me at the hotel. We'll go out for a late-night snack tonight."
David was still in the office, waiting for Liu Zhiming and the others to return. After seeing the text message, he raised an eyebrow, his forehead wrinkled, and he rubbed his forehead, looking somewhat troubled.
He's his age and single.
I'm really afraid I won't be able to handle it.
"Okay, I'll come over as soon as I'm done. You can rest for a bit."
"Well, you promised to treat us, so going back on your word is just like a dog."
"Woof woof!"
"That doesn't count. You have to bark like a dog in front of me for it to count."
David was amused by her and didn't reply.
That is impossible.
unless……
Forget it, Ding Tingting won't become that kind of woman, at least not within the next ten years. With her personality, she wouldn't even think of that kind of thing.
Wu Maocai presented the relevant content from the county government's work conference for the second half of the year.
The county government needs to give a report outlining its work priorities for the second half of the year, as well as its economic development plan for the second half of the year.
Li Taoying had been urging this matter for a long time.
After Dawei finished adjusting the personnel of the county party committee, he then asked Wu Maocai to get on with the matter quickly.
"Please review these sets of data again."
Wu Maocai presented several key data points in a table.
They had reached a certain understanding, and Wu Maocai could handle the other less important matters.
With such a thick document, David only needs to focus on a few key points.
"The data is fine, and the work is excellent."
The outlook for performance is also reasonable, neither exaggerated nor conservative.
but……"
Wu Maocai listened attentively, and when he heard Dawei make a change of topic, he immediately took out the fountain pen he was carrying on his chest, skillfully pushed open the cap with his thumb, and unfolded his notebook to take notes.
David clasped his hands together and began to speak slowly.
Overall, the content of this report is quite good.
This marked a departure from Xie Changhe's flamboyant style, and instead presented a more pragmatic approach.
However, being too pragmatic is also not good.
The people we encounter are all different. Some can understand your pragmatic mindset, while others are not interested in your data or the professional content you mention.
Some people just love to hear empty words.
Wu Maocai understood and nodded slightly: "That means we need to do some theoretical work... From which aspects do you think it would be most appropriate to start?"
"Environmental remediation, rectification of polluting enterprises, improvement of air quality, protection of water sources, and enhancement of residents' happiness index..."
Wu Maocai pursed his lips tightly, afraid of bursting into laughter while discussing such a serious topic, and took careful notes.
"clear.
It's actually quite pragmatic.
These things are all closely related to people's lives.
However, one thing is certain: these things are difficult to quantify.
The county government could simply send people to inspect the reservoir, repaint the protective railings, and put up some signs to protect the water source—it would only cost a few thousand yuan and would get a very good response.
As for what kind of protection it brings to water sources and what significant improvements it makes to drinking water?
I don't know, nobody can quantify it.
There are also polluting enterprises and the like. Some of them were originally planned to be shut down, but they are brought up as an opportunity to tell everyone what the county government has done.
Closing down one family is the same as closing down a hundred families.
As long as it's shut down, it means you've done something, you're fulfilling your responsibilities...
The sound of Liu Zhiming and his team talking could be heard from the corridor outside; it was Liu, the executive director, who had returned from his inspection tour.
David glanced at his watch, and Director Wu knew he had something to do. After giving his report, he left without saying anything more.
Dawei got up and went to Executive Director Liu's office.
"Have you eaten yet, Executive Director Liu?"
Liu Zhiming turned around and grinned: "I've already eaten, I've already eaten."
We ate at Zhonghai Village in Zhongkeng Town.
Good grief, we said we weren't going to eat, and the village chief just killed all the chickens and geese in his house.
They say that if we don't eat, it's a waste, and wasting food is shameful.
What can we do about this?
However, Director Ding enjoyed the meal; the food cooked on a wood-fired stove was incredibly delicious.
Liu Zhiming took off his sweat-soaked shirt, took a clean set of clothes from the closet to change into, and poured water for Dawei.
Zhonghai Village has reservoir and river resources, and the high mountains and cliffs on both sides of the river are very beautiful.
There are caves on both sides of the mountain, and it is said that people lived in the caves in ancient times.
There are also many precious plants and herbs on the mountain.
It also has abundant water resources and beautiful scenery.
"Zhonghai Village is a nice place, but the roads are difficult to travel."
Liu Zhiming sighed: "Yes."
If the agricultural, cultural and tourism pilot project could be located in Zhonghai Village, then we could take this opportunity to repair the roads there as well.
The local village officials are all looking forward to it.
The villagers were also very welcoming.
The two chatted enthusiastically for a while.
After drinking a few cups of tea, Dawei offered him a cigarette and closed the door behind him.
"Executive Director Liu, we haven't communicated much before."
I'm younger and lack experience in many areas.
Privately, if I, Chen Dawei, do anything wrong that displeases you, please remind me.
David started trying to win them over.
Liu Zhiming did agree to take on the responsibility of agriculture, culture, and tourism, but that was something Secretary Zhikai had said.
There are still many areas where we need to collaborate with Executive Director Liu.
David needs to have a proper heart-to-heart talk with him so that they can share in the future achievements.
One point needs to be clarified here:
Regardless of how much effort Dawei put into the project that Liu Zhiming was in charge of, Liu Zhiming always had to say in public that it was under Chen Dawei's leadership...
