Chapter 2556
After answering the various questions that everyone encountered today, Shi Diwen got up and walked to the huge map hanging on the wall. While pointing to the area on the map, he said to everyone: "This is the current jurisdiction of the East China Sea Region Scope, as you can see, the entire territory of Zhejiang, central and southern Jiangsu, and central and eastern Anhui are all included in the jurisdiction of the East China Sea Region. In order to facilitate the jurisdiction and implement the capital relocation plan, we divided the Huzhou Prefecture near Hangzhou Bay, Jiaxing The government of Hangzhou, the government of Songjiang, the government of Shaoxing, and the government of Ningbo are also temporarily brought under the control of the Hangzhou government for unified management.”

When Shi Diwen said this, he turned to everyone and said: "You should have noticed that the area of ​​this area is much larger than Hainan Island, and the population size is ten times that of Hainan Island. However, we can deploy to Hangzhou The officials and armed forces of the government are much worse than those of Hainan Island."

"Of course, after we start implementing the capital relocation plan, a large number of officials will be transferred from the south to alleviate the employment gap in Hangzhou. However, there is still a process for officials from other places to adapt to the local environment, just like when you came to Hangzhou. Even with the corresponding ability and motivation, it still takes time to understand the local situation.”

"What I want to say is that for a long period of time in the future, we will still have to retain a large number of officials from the previous dynasty, and rely on the gentry class who have greater influence among the people in local governance."

Everyone listened attentively to Shi Diwen's introduction, each pondering in their hearts what this special situation meant to Hai Han.

Except for Wang Anguo, who has been overseas all year round and only recently returned to East Asia, Tao Hongfang and others have been staying in the central area of ​​the country for a long time, and they have access to more information. Naturally, it is not difficult to understand what Shi Diwen described this situation.

However, before coming here, they did not really realize that Hangzhou's current jurisdiction is so large, even larger than Hainan Island.With such a specific comparison, they can understand the difficulties of Shi Diwen's ruling party.

Sanya is the only place on Hainan Island, and there are thousands of people working in various official organizations.The yamen where Tao Hongfang and others are located are not staffed by hundreds of people.As for the yamen in Hangzhou, whether it is the Ministry of Commerce or the Ministry of Culture and Education, there is obviously a huge gap in staffing. Of course, it is difficult to operate efficiently according to the Haihan model, and even had to set up a temporary agency such as the township trial office to deal with it. An important matter such as the imperial examination.

And the administrative malpractices caused by the shortage of personnel are probably far more than what Tao Hongfang and others have encountered today.They are not as thorough as Shi Diwen in understanding the various problems that the government is currently facing in the process of governing, and it is true that they cannot be solved by a few young foreign officials with enthusiasm.

Seeing that everyone looked thoughtful, Shi Diwen continued: "You may have heard about the plan to move the capital before you came, but you may not have a detailed understanding of the planning of this area. Are you interested? Listen to me briefly talk about the situation in this regard?"

Tao Hongfang quickly responded: "The younger generation would like to hear the details."

Several other people also nodded one after another, expressing the hope that Shi Diwen could talk about the plan to move the capital in detail.After all, this is a major event that can affect the country's future development for Haihan Country, which is on the rise.The pros and cons have been debated by the executive committee for several years, and Shi Diwen played a decisive role in the final decision to establish the capital in Hangzhou.As for the specific arrangement of this plan to move the capital, there are probably few people in this world who know more about it than him.

Shi Diwen took a sip of hot tea to moisten his throat, then put down his teacup, and began to explain to the group of young people his plan to move the capital.

Shi Diwen's plan is not as simple as building a new city near the existing Hangzhou City. In addition to moving various administrative agencies in Sanya to make Hangzhou the administrative center of the country, he also hopes to be able to build a new city in Hangzhou. The supporting industrial, agricultural, and commercial areas will be built within the entire Hangzhou Bay, which will drive the development of the entire area and make it the core area of ​​the entire East Asian region in the future.

Shi Diwen proposed the concept of a "Bay Area" to everyone. Instead of taking a single city as the construction target, he wants to use the capital relocation plan to drive the development of the entire region. This is indeed a relatively new idea for young officials. idea.

Tao Hongfang raised a question at this time: "With my country's current financial situation, can it afford such a large-scale regional construction plan?"

"Good question!" Shi Diwen affirmed Tao Hongfang's question: "According to the financial situation of our country in the past three years, although the revenue and expenditure are in good condition, the annual fiscal revenue can even maintain a stable growth. But if the Bay Area is to be built in full accordance with the plan I just mentioned, there will still be a huge funding gap. On this point, Schneider has already made a clear conclusion."

"However, we can think of other ways to solve the problem of funds, such as raising funds from the private sector through investment promotion or issuing bonds. Operating experience."

Shi Diwen was obviously very excited about this topic, and his face turned rosy when he said this: "For example, for some large-scale infrastructure projects that cost a lot of money, we can actually consider introducing private capital to participate in the construction, and then form long-term returns through operation. "

Shi Diwen raised his finger to Hangzhou as he spoke, and drew his fingers all the way to Ningbo in the east on the map: "For example, the currently planned railway line between Hangzhou and Ningbo is more than 300 miles long. If the construction is completely allocated by the treasury, it will probably It will take three to five years to start construction, and the construction period will be very long. But if we introduce private capital, the pressure on funds will be greatly reduced, and construction can be started simultaneously with the implementation of the capital relocation plan. After completion, it will be managed by the Ministry of Communications and operation, and the profits generated are distributed according to the proportion of investment.”

Tao Hongfang asked with some concern: "Will private capital be interested in this kind of business with huge investment and slow payback?"

Shi Diwen nodded affirmatively and said: "Yes, of course! As long as the executive committee makes a decision, we can immediately issue railway construction bonds in the East China Sea region, allowing private capital to participate."

Ning Zijing also asked: "Uncle Shi, it is reasonable to say that rich people are very smart. Could it be that this railway bond has higher returns than their ordinary business?"
