The holiday resort was located in the Guangming District of Dongzhou City. It was the earliest and most successful tourism project in the province. With an annual income of more than one billion, it was even more profitable than the coal mine, which made many people envious. There was not only the majestic and magnificent Puding Mountain, but also the wide and charming Pujiang River. There were mountains and rivers, and after artificial development, it was endowed with more elegance and liveliness. It was simply a gift from nature to this place.
Just this scenic spot alone was so profitable. There were seven or eight scenic spots under the jurisdiction of the Guangming District, with an annual income of nearly ten billion. It had become one of the top 100 counties in China and ranked 46th on the comprehensive strength list. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was overflowing with wealth.
Before Xu Caimao left, he promoted his secretary to be the head of the place, which was enough to show his trust and kindness.
Dongzhou City was the economic center of the province. There was not a single poor county under the jurisdiction of the city. Even the weakest county was many times stronger than Long'an County. Not to mention the Guangming District, it was like a money printing machine that produced money every day.
It was the tourist season now, and the holiday resort was almost bursting with people and cars everywhere. Ordinary people had to pay a huge price to travel, but this was not the case for officials, who could use their privileges to enjoy special treatment at any time.
When the district secretary was coming, the secretary of the local town government, the mayor, the general manager of the hotel, and the heads of the relevant departments followed closely behind to open a green passage for tourists to visit areas that were inaccessible to tourists.
Lu Yiwei clearly remembered that there was a large iron gate installed on the road with security guards. It was still there today, but the iron gate had been replaced with a more advanced aluminum alloy retractable door, and the security guards had been replaced by armed police. At that time, he was particularly curious about what was inside, but because his rank was too low, he could not enter. He only heard that it was a sanatorium for provincial officials. But today, as the secretary of the County party committee, he drove in, truly satisfying his curiosity from back then.
Along the way, there was nothing special, except for a villa every few dozen meters. There were almost no tourists, but when they reached the back of the mountain, there was a different kind of scenery. In the middle of the huge mountain was a large garden with all kinds of entertainment facilities, which was an eye-opener.
Cheng Xiang said in a low voice, "This is an area that has not been opened to the public, mainly responsible for receiving high-level leaders and foreign guests. In addition, many enterprises and units have built sanatoriums and clubs here. There is a special passage to come here, and it does not interfere with the scenic area. "
Lu Yiwei nodded and pointed ahead. "What's that over there?"
Cheng Xiang paused and whispered into his ear, "Most people can't go there. I've only been there once. It's the private territory of senior cadres and military leaders."
Lu Yiwei understood and didn't ask any further. He didn't say anything more.
Cheng Xiang satisfied his curiosity and whispered, "A leader of the central government is recuperating inside and is guarded by the army. The local government can't interfere. At this moment, the leader was living inside, and no one could enter. There's a special military parking apron and airstrip inside. There's only one way out of the mountain. You just need to know. "
Lu Yiwei stared straight ahead. He seemed to have heard it, but at the same time, he didn't. After circling around the various attractions, he stopped in front of a European-style castle. Under the guidance of the staff, they arrived at the spacious conference room on the second floor. Both parties sat opposite each other and began the discussion.
On behalf of the Guangming District, Cheng Xiang welcomed Lu Yiwei and introduced the tourism development in detail. When the participants of the Long An County heard about the future development plan, they were all dumbfounded. It was as if they were living in the last century and didn't know what was happening in the outside world. Guangming District wanted to build the largest health care base in China in the next five years. The total investment was unimaginably large, hundreds of times the current revenue of Long'an County.
Lu Yiwei brought them out this time to broaden their horizons and broaden their horizons. On the other hand, it was to lay a foundation for the upcoming tourism development. Otherwise, they wouldn't know how beautiful the outside world was and how much potential there was for tourism.
Next, the general manager of the holiday villa introduced the scenic area planning and related content. Lu Yiwei took notes carefully and asked many questions. In the free Q&A session, the cadres from Long'an County were ignorant and the questions they asked were childish and ridiculous. Fortunately, Lu Yiwei held the scene and didn't embarrass him.
After the discussion ended, the group moved to the restaurant on the second floor. Just as they sat down, Cheng Xiang received a phone call and came back after a while. "Secretary Lu, I'm sorry. Director Liu Wenli from the Municipal Publicity Department is here with some guests. I'll be right back."
"Alright, do what you need to do. It's fine as long as Deputy Chief Wang is here."
Cheng Xiang left in a hurry. Deputy Chief Wang said helplessly, "Secretary Lu, our Secretary Cheng's daily work isn't to deal with affairs or attend meetings, but to accompany different leaders to the scenic area and eat. He's been here countless times. Today, he's already accompanied three groups of guests. He's very busy. But there's nothing we can do. They're all big leaders and we can't afford to offend them. "
Lu Yiwei added, "This is normal. It's the same for other secretaries. Every county has different priorities. It'd be great if our county was as busy as yours. "
"Let's stop talking and eat. We've also arranged a cultural performance for you. After that, you can experience the hot spring and relax. "
Half an hour later, Cheng Xiang came back with a group of people. When Liu Wenli came in, Lu Yiwei was shocked and quickly stood up to welcome her.
Liu Wenli generously extended her hand and said with a smile, "Secretary Cheng, why didn't you tell me you were coming? You're so busy and I didn't want to disturb you."
Cheng Xiang stood there awkwardly. Lu Yiwei quickly explained, "It was me who told you not to. You're so busy and I didn't want to disturb you. Plus, I didn't want to disturb you, so I just came to have a look. "
Liu Wenli was Zhong Ming's mother and his sister, Lu Ling's mother-in-law. She used to be a deputy mayor and was now a member of the Eastern State Municipal Party Committee and the Head of Publicity. She was promoted so quickly because her family had connections in the capital. In addition, she was quite powerful to begin with. She was known as the 'Iron Lady' in the Eastern State's bureaucracy. Other than that, her younger brother, Liu Wengang, was a shareholder of the Holiday Villa. He had switched to real estate and was doing very well.
In the past, Lu Yiwei was just a poor kid. How could he have come into contact with such high-class people? After entering the bureaucracy, the level of people he came into contact with became higher and higher. Especially after he became the Secretary of the County Party Committee, it was a completely different concept from before. Most of the people he talked to were above the middle class. This was unimaginable in the past.
