Chapter 519 The Governor's Thoughts and Demands
Afterwards, Qi Tongwei went to report to Governor Ye Ruyun.
"Now that you have resolved the investment issue, the province will approve your application as soon as possible."
"The Xichun Plaza project in Jincheng city will be postponed for now. You should first create a model and see how it goes!"
Ye Ruyun said after listening to Qi Tongwei's report.
In just two years, Xichun County has transformed from the most backward county in Jincheng to one of the top counties in Jincheng, and is now on its way to becoming a county with a GDP of 10 billion yuan, soon to become the number one county in Jincheng.
The development speed is very fast.
Such rapid development can easily lead to an unstable foundation and insufficient momentum for future growth.
Therefore, Xichun Plaza, a super-tall building, is needed to stabilize future development and allow it to continue its rapid growth.
Such landmarks are more likely to attract businesses to invest in Xichun County, thus promoting the county's development.
The province has invested heavily in supporting Xichun County, not only to make it a county with a GDP of 10 billion yuan and bring glory to the province.
What the province wants is for Xichun County to develop healthily and steadily, and incidentally drive the development of several nearby counties and cities, and even the development of Yucheng.
If Xichun County maintains its current rate of development, it will become a county with a GDP of 100 billion yuan in just a few years, becoming the second pole of Jincheng.
If a Xichun Square were built in the city at this time, it would not play its due role in the development of Xichun County.
This is also why, when Xichun County wanted to extend its first-class, six-lane, two-way main highway, the province required them to extend the road to the border with Yucheng.
Next, the province will require Xichun to also repair the highway to Linqiong City, which will improve transportation conditions between the two places.
By the way, ask Xichun County to extend the secondary road to the border with Qile County, the neighboring Shucheng City.
"Okay, thank you, Governor!"
Qi Tongwei expressed his gratitude.
It's good that the Xichun Square in Xichun County was approved; we can figure out how to expand it later.
We considered Xichun Square in the city earlier because we felt that the province and the city also needed this kind of landmark building.
Which contractor are you planning to hire?
Ye Ruyun asked.
For a super-tall building like Xichun Plaza, in addition to investment, construction is also crucial; it's essential to find a reliable company to build it.
"We plan to approach Xihua Group, a construction company in our province. Only they have the relevant qualifications and experience."
Qi Tongwei said.
Xihua Group possesses dual qualifications for both top-tier building construction and ultra-high steel structure construction. In 95, it undertook the construction of the 160m Crowne Plaza Hotel in the city and has extensive experience in obtaining approvals within the province.
If there is no expansion, the contractor will naturally not need to consider other provinces.
After all, the province and city will definitely require priority to be given to cooperating with enterprises within the province.
Therefore, the only option within the province is Xihua Group.
"Xihua Group is indeed excellent!"
Ye Ruyun said.
Xihua Group can leverage its experience in constructing 200-meter landmark buildings at Xichun Square in Xichun County to facilitate future projects involving super high-rise buildings.
"If you can raise the funds, you can do it at Xichun Square in Mingzhu, Beijing and Pengcheng, but the timing will be a bit later."
This will generate more buzz around Xichun Square in your county and attract more media coverage.
Ye Ruyun said.
Building Xichun Plaza in Mingzhu, Beijing, and Shenzhen can enhance its reputation and attract more attention.
After all, this is a landmark building that is 200 meters high. As the first one of its kind, Xichun Square in Xichun County is bound to attract a lot of attention.
"Okay, Governor!"
Qi Tongwei said.
If the province allows expansion, things will be much easier.
"Isn't your county making great efforts to build rural roads?"
We can't just focus on your county; we also need to properly repair the highway to Linqiong City and upgrade it to a Class II road.
You also need to properly repair the road to Qile County so that Qile County can also develop by utilizing your county's first-class highway.
Ye Ruyun said.
In this way, both Linqiong City and Qile County can improve their transportation conditions and promote development by utilizing the Class I highway in Xichun County.
"Okay, Governor, what about Dingmeng County?"
Qi Tongwei said.
Since the provincial governor had made the request, Xichun County naturally could not refuse.
"You don't need to worry about Dingmeng County. The province plans to extend the first-class six-lane dual carriageway main road in your county, and then it will be built directly to the urban area of Yucheng City."
Ye Ruyun said.
Xichun County has already extended the first-class, six-lane dual carriageway main road to the border with Dingmeng County, and the remaining section will be built by the province.
This will further improve the transportation conditions in Rain City and promote its development.
The development of Yucheng is very backward; the entire prefecture and city combined is not as good as Xichun County.
It's unrealistic to expect them to fund the construction of a six-lane, two-way main road from the city center to the border with Jincheng.
With the highway and the first-class six-lane dual carriageway main road, the development of Rain City will be faster.
Furthermore, it will facilitate the subsequent construction of a highway connecting Rain City to Babu City and Sunflower City.
"Ok!"
Qi Tongwei nodded.
Xichun County can be left alone; otherwise, after finally increasing its fiscal revenue, it will have to spend a large sum of money again.
"By the way, Governor, our county is planning to be upgraded to a city next year. What do you think?"
Qi Tongwei asked.
I'll mention this to Ye Ruyun beforehand and see what the province's attitude is.
"You can apply as long as you meet the requirements!"
Ye Ruyun said.
If Xichun County becomes a county with a GDP of 10 billion yuan this year, then there will be no problem for them to be upgraded from a county to a city.
"Yes, Governor."
Then, Qi Tongwei gave a brief report on other work before taking his leave.
Back in Xichun County, Qi Tongwei called Xia Deqing over.
"County Chief Xia, the Xichun Square project will be approved soon..."
Qi Tongwei told Xia Deqing about the results of his trip to the city and province.
"Secretary Qi, does this mean our Xichun Plaza will be operational soon?"
Xia Deqing said happily.
He hadn't expected Qi Tongwei's trip to the city and province to be so fruitful.
"Yes, now we can start preparing."
I have already spoken with Mr. Zhuang of Qiyuan Company and Mr. Lei of Zhichao Group. They will invest and cover the investment.
However, we still need to give up some investment share to other companies.
As for the construction, just hand it over to Xihua Group; they have the experience and qualifications in this area.
Qi Tongwei said.
Xichun County cannot keep such a large project to itself; it needs to bring in other businesses to attract more investment to Xichun County.
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away!"
Xia Deqing said.
The Xichun Square project is under the responsibility of the county government, and he will definitely oversee it personally.
"Secretary Qi, wouldn't we be at a huge disadvantage if we built a secondary highway connecting the county seat to Linqiong City and Qile County?"
Xia Deqing said.
If Hishun County is to undertake the repairs, it means that Hishun County will have to pay for them, which will increase the financial burden on Hishun County.
"This is a task personally assigned by Governor Ye, so we have to make repairs even if it means suffering losses."
Moreover, we need to have a high vantage point.
Qi Tongwei said.
The tasks assigned by the governor must be completed with great effort.
Otherwise, if the leadership of Xichun County is reshuffled next time, Ye Ruyun can easily bench them with just a word.
