"Our goal in the future is to realize the coordinated development of the Pearl River Delta region with Pengcheng as the center. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides and converges with three rivers. It has a long coastline, a good port group, a vast sea area, a vast internal economic hinterland, and an external The international space is huge! The entire region has a permanent population of more than 80 million people! If a synergy of development is formed, it is not impossible to catch up with the Yangtze River Delta in the future!" Luo Wen said, with hope in his eyes.
"We are now closely linked with Hong Kong and have basically formed a 'shop in front and factory in the back' structure. Pengcheng and Guancheng are working hard in the communications and electronic information industry, petrochemical industry, clothing and shoes, toy processing, food and beverages and other industries. , the level of manufacturing industry continues to rise, and Hong Kong is giving full play to its role as a 'shopping paradise' to promote our goods to the world. Now many voices say that China is the 'world's factory', and the Pearl River Delta is the 'world's factory' A pearl! As the world's economic integration continues to deepen, Pengcheng's good days are yet to come." Hua Bo is equally confident.
"Secretary Luo, Mayor Hua, if you need anything from the National Development and Reform Commission, just ask, we will give you the green light and do our best to support you!" Li Yanqing said.
This is not just his personal attitude, but also represents a higher attitude.
"Thank you!"
The secretary and mayor of Pengcheng were very happy.
Of course, given Pengcheng's status, many central leaders are very concerned about it.
But as the saying goes, county officials are not as good as current managers. It would be a good thing if they can get strong support from the executive deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission.
"Jiang Tao, didn't you tell me about the integration of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao and the world-class city cluster before? Please tell Secretary Luo and Mayor Hua about it."
Luo Wen and Hua Bo were surprised when they heard this. They knew that the young man next to Li Yanqing was his secretary.
But it was unusual for the secretary to speak.
Liang Jiangtao paused and said:
"Secretary and mayor, the most economically developed, technologically advanced, and culturally vibrant areas in the world are basically Bay Areas, such as the New York Bay Area and San Francisco Bay Area in the United States, and the Tokyo Bay Area in Japan. There are profound Due to historical and geographical reasons, as the best bay area in China, eastern Guangdong and Pengcheng are uniquely endowed, and it seems that they should develop in this direction to further promote the integrated construction of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, form a synergy for development, and create a world-class city cluster."
Liang Jiangtao expressed his thoughts directly and imagined the future.
He was someone who had talked eloquently in front of Comrade Chen. Of course he would not be pretentious in front of two deputy ministerial leaders.
The two leaders nodded, feeling that what this young man said was somewhat interesting.
“I think the integrated construction not only includes Pengcheng and Hong Kong, Zhuhai and Macao, but also other prefecture-level cities in southeastern Guangdong, such as Guancheng, Huizhou, Zhongshan, Foshan, etc., to further expand the scope of integration and form a cluster effect. ! Of course, there are also key points here. Pengcheng and Guangcheng, as well as Hong Kong and Macao, must give full play to their driving effects and become the growth engine of this region! In the long term, the integration of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao will be an important direction of development, and it will definitely We can build a vibrant world-class city cluster, an international science and technology innovation center, a demonstration zone for in-depth cooperation between the Mainland and Hong Kong and Macao, and a high-quality living area that is suitable for living, working and traveling, and become a model of high-quality development!"
Liang Jiangtao talked eloquently and clearly described the direction of future development.
"Well, you've thought it through very thoroughly and it's very informative!"
"Yes, there are no weak soldiers under a strong general. To have such insight is worthy of being a young talent from the National Development and Reform Commission!"
The two leaders of Pengcheng nodded in agreement.
The picture drawn by Liang Jiangtao is very attractive.
Of course, the promotion of integration has been conceived over the years, and they have been working hard in this direction.
But what Liang Jiangtao proposed was more specific and ambitious.
"Minister Yanqing, two leaders, I have a suggestion. I don't know whether it is suitable or not. Why not draft a development plan and submit it to the committee?" Liang Jiangtao suggested straight to the point.
If you want to do something, do it immediately, don't procrastinate.
What's more, the direction he proposed is definitely right.
As one of China's five major planned cities, Pengcheng has many special policies, one of which is that its economic policies are autonomous and can directly interface with national ministries and commissions.
"Well, I think it will work. I wonder what the two leaders think?" Li Yanqing said.
Secretary Luo Wen was stunned for a moment. Comrade Xiaoliang must have been too resolute.
It is said that the leading cadres in Pengcheng are fast, but compared with Comrade Xiaoliang, they are not called fast at all.
After thinking for a while, he immediately agreed and directly ordered: "Hua Bo, according to what we just discussed, you should form a systematic material as soon as possible, and we will report it to the superior."
He is a very straightforward leader. If he thinks something is right, he will move forward immediately.
"Okay!" Mayor Hua Bo nodded.
He is also a happy master.
In fact, the leaders of Guangdong and Pengcheng basically have this style, otherwise they would not be able to sail this giant ship that rides the wind and waves.
Liang Jiangtao looked happy.
During his trip to the south, he planned to produce several weighty reports.
This is also one of them.
At the dinner in the evening, the Secretary of Eastern Guangdong appeared in person.
He showed that he was very familiar with Liang Jiangtao, and Luo Wen and Hua Bo suddenly realized.
No wonder Li Yanqing values Liang Jiangtao so much. It turns out that this young man has a profound background.
Of course, it's not just that. His knowledge and knowledge are indeed extraordinary and have benefited them all a lot.
...
The next day, the Director of the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region hosted a banquet for Li Yanqing.
The location was chosen at the office of the International Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in Pengcheng, not far from the reception venue where they are currently staying, and it was also named a mountain villa.
There are also winding paths leading to secluded areas, with birds singing and flowers fragrant, and exquisite villas.
However, the overall area is smaller.
The International Department of the CPC Central Committee in Hong Kong is also at the ministerial level and is the highest agency of the central government in Hong Kong. It is responsible for overall coordination and liaison.
In contrast, there is the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in Macau, which is also at the ministerial level.
In the State Council system, the person responsible for Hong Kong and Macao work is also the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council.
These three agencies are all at the ministerial level and are not subordinate to each other. They work together in this area.
Also attending the banquet were the president of Xinhua News Agency's Hong Kong branch, chairman of China Resources Group, chairman of China Merchants Group, president of Ta Kung Newspaper, president of Wenhui Newspaper, and president of Bauhinia Magazine.
Among them, the director of Xinhua News Agency’s Hong Kong Branch is the predecessor of the Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in Hong Kong.
Before Hong Kong's return to the motherland until 2000, the Xinhua News Agency in Hong Kong was divided into two parts. One part was the "small news agency" or "small Xinhua", which was responsible for news and communication work; the other part was the "big news agency" and "big Xinhua", which was responsible for coordinating liaison work.
In January 2000, the original Xinhua News Agency Hong Kong Branch was reorganized.
China Resources Group and China Merchants Group are both Chinese-funded enterprises in Hong Kong. They are strong and have deputy ministerial levels.
