The Standing Committee meeting was held on Friday afternoon.
This was the first time Lu Yiwei had actually presided over a Standing Committee meeting since he was in charge of the County party committee, so he attached great importance to it. The members of the Standing Committee also understood their priorities. Some of the Standing Committee members who had already gone back to the city hurried back to attend the meeting.
This time, all 11 members of the Standing Committee attended the meeting, giving Lu Yiwei enough face.
Lu Yiwei sat in the middle of the oval conference table. He was a little nervous when he saw everyone staring at him. However, he must not panic at this time. He should bring out the spirit of a 'First Leader' and hold this meeting well.
As the highest level meeting in a county, the Standing Committee was mainly to discuss important matters that affected the overall situation. Before the meeting, the organizer, the Secretary of the County party committee, would have a private discussion with the Standing Committee members to seek their opinions on the matters to be discussed. Or, they would simply distribute the meeting topics in the form of documents to the Standing Committee members in advance. The purpose of this was to better implement democratic centralism and allow the topics to be passed smoothly.
The most important part of the Standing Committee meeting was the voting session. Whether a topic could be passed depended on the votes in the hands of the Standing Committee members. If more than half of the votes were passed, it would be successfully implemented. If less than half of the votes were passed, the meeting would be adjourned and continued until it was passed.
Under the current system of the country, as long as the topic was favored by the First Leader, it would basically not be passed, and no one would dare to oppose it. However, for Lu Yiwei, the people sitting below were all older than him. It was still unknown whether this topic could be passed or not.
Before the meeting, he did not have a discussion with the Standing Committee members. However, he had communicated with Wu Shixun indirectly and received his strong support. He said that this was related to the development of Black Mountain County, and he thought that no one would dare to oppose it.
The meeting was held at three o 'clock sharp.
Wu Shixun spoke first in the name of the government, and took the opportunity to put forward Lu Yiwei's development concept. Unexpectedly, once this concept was put forward, all the Standing Committee members were stunned and could not keep up with the rhythm.
Lu Yiwei and Zhao Xiaokang exchanged glances and distributed the implementation plan to the Standing Committee members.
Lu Yiwei took the microphone and said, "Dear comrades, you are all my elders. Logically speaking, I shouldn't be sitting here and presiding, but the Municipal Party Committee has put the burden on me, and I can't disappoint the Municipal Party Committee's trust in me."
"I've been in Black Mountain County for a year now. Although I don't have a deep understanding of this place, I've already regarded myself as a Black Mountain citizen. Since you're a part of Black Mountain County, you have to make suggestions for the development of your hometown, find ways to change the face of Black Mountain County, and lead the 300,000 people in the county to become rich together. "
"I can tell you my impression of Black Mountain County without any scruples. Poverty and weakness are the direct portrayal of my county. Why was this happening? The most important thing is that our county doesn't have a decent enterprise, let alone a pillar to develop the industry. It's difficult to survive just by relying on the funds from the higher-ups. Are you all going to watch Black Mountain County develop like this? "
"I received a set of data. Last year, Eastern City's fiscal revenue exceeded 20 billion RMB, while our Western City's fiscal revenue was only 2 billion RMB, only one-tenth of theirs. In comparison, Eastern City's Andu County's fiscal revenue reached 1.8 billion RMB last year, almost catching up to the entire Western City. What about us? We haven't even broken 100 million RMB. "
"Some of you might say that there's no comparison between our county and a resource-rich county. Then let me tell you about a county that's similar to ours, Northern City's Guchuan County. This county is the same as ours, with no mineral resources within its borders. It's a purely agricultural county. However, in recent years, the county has proposed the development of an important logistics hub for the entire province. Since the implementation of this goal, the results have been very good. Their county's fiscal revenue reached 400 million RMB last year. Isn't this the benefit of transformation and development? Back in Black Mountain County, we urgently need to transform and develop. "
"It was pure coincidence that I met Pansy Company. If not for Secretary Yan's invitation to attend the agricultural fair in Suzhou, there would be no subsequent investment. In order to reach this agreement, I visited them three times to negotiate, and finally, the company decided to invest. The establishment of the Pansy Silkworm Factory is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for our county. If we can be like a small town in Jiangnan, forming a 'one county, one industry' development pattern, wouldn't that be even better? "
"My proposal to create the 'Home of Tussah' in the northwest region seems a bit big, but in fact, it's not big at all. Throughout the northwest region, which region has developed tussah farming? Almost none. The development of a county needs its own characteristics, its own brand. If we go out and mention tussah, we can point to Black Mountain County. This kind of brand effect is something that can't be bought at any price. "
"Therefore, I hope that the members of the Standing Committee will carefully consider my idea. If you agree, we will implement this project as soon as possible, and strive to use three years to spread the brand of Black Mountain County."
Lu Yiwei's speech was full of emotion, enough to make people excited. However, the members of the Standing Committee did not seem to be mobilized, each busy with their own work. Some sat there in a daze, some flipped through the documents in their hands, and some lowered their heads to smoke. This made Lu Yiwei a little disappointed.
It was time for the members of the Standing Committee to speak freely. The new head of publicity, Guo Zhenbiao, was the first to open fire. He said: "Secretary Lu, your idea is really good. It can bring all the people in the county to participate, and all the people will become rich. Of course I agree. But in your proposal, there are many details that are not clear. For example, why are you so sure that all the people in the county will participate? This is one of the reasons. Secondly, the quality of the people is different. Some can raise good silkworms, and some can't. If there is a loss, who will compensate? Thirdly, you said that the Pansy Silkworm Factory can be acquired. What are the criteria for acquisition? What about the price? You did not mention any of these. "
Guo Zhenbiao's questions made Song Defu, the Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, unable to stand it anymore. He took over the topic: "Old Guo, Secretary Lu's proposal is only a preliminary proposal, and what you said is the specifics. There is no need to discuss it in this meeting. If you want to bring it up, I will explain it to you. I can't guarantee that all the people in the county will participate, but the problem is, is there a need? Will the people living in the county also raise silkworms? Secondly, this is a market economy, and survival of the fittest. You can't do everything and spoil everyone like a nanny. How can you take care of everyone? Capable people do more work. Those who raise silkworms well will have more income, and those who don't raise silkworms will have less income. This is a very normal economic law. Thirdly, the market for agricultural products is not open to the public. Especially due to natural disasters, the prices will fluctuate. The price of buying silkworms will be based on the market. "
Song Defu's words were watertight, and he rebutted Guo Zhenbiao. Guo Zhenbiao sat there with a black face, and was about to retort when Song Defu interrupted: "Let me say a few words."
"I think that Secretary Lu's proposal is very good. I was born and raised in Heishan County. I grew up here and witnessed the changes in Heishan County. The glory of the past is gone forever, and now it is the poorest county in the entire province. I am really sad and ashamed. I didn't do my best to change the face of Heishan County. I have to deeply reflect on this. "
"Comrade Lu Yiwei has only been in our county for a year, and he was able to come up with such a novel and local topic. I admire him from the bottom of my heart. Why didn't others see the shining point of our county? This shows that their minds are not on development at all. "
"More than half of you here are from Heishan County. Have you thought about the development of your hometown? I don't think so. Not to mention other things, Comrade Lu Yiwei has made a great contribution to Heishan County in the integration of education. How effective is it? He has rewritten the history of education in our county. Two students have reached the Tsinghua University Line. Have you thought about changing it? No, not even me. "
"And today, Comrade Lu Yiwei's' Tussah Village 'made me very touched. What does this mean? He was truly thinking for the sake of Black Mountain County. Who else has ever thought like this? Therefore, I firmly support Comrade Lu Yiwei's development ideas. Even if there is a possibility of failure in the future, I will support it to the end. Without bold innovation and attempts, how can we know whether it will work or not? "
"This is my attitude. My attitude not only represents my personal point of view, but also the county's retired cadres. I'm done. "
Song Defu's words moved Lu Yiwei to tears. He didn't expect that Song Defu would speak out his heart. Even if it didn't pass, he was satisfied.
After Song Defu finished speaking, the venue was dead silent. Wu Shixun wanted to speak, but was stopped by Lu Yiwei. He was waiting. He believed that someone else wanted to speak.
Sure enough, Deputy County Head Zhao Jiancheng, who had never expressed his position, couldn't sit still. He said, "Since no one wants to speak, let me say a few words."
"Comrade Defu's speech just now made me feel ashamed. I am also from Heishan County, but I have never really put my mind on changing the face of Heishan County. It is a bit difficult to speak. I have been working in the Agriculture Bureau since I started working. Later, I became the director, and then the deputy county head in charge of agriculture. Now, I am still in charge of agriculture. It can be said that I have been dealing with agriculture all my life. Our county has a long history of silkworm rearing. It can be traced back to the Qing Dynasty. This is the precious wealth passed down by our ancestors, but we haven't carried it forward. "
"I had similar ideas before, but it was just an idea. I didn't put it into practice. Today, when Comrade Yiwei brought it up, I am very happy and gratified. Finally, someone has found the commanding heights of our county's development. Based on the current situation, revitalizing the silkworm rearing industry is the only way for our county's development. Therefore, I strongly support it, like Comrade Defu. "
With the two senior figures speaking, the atmosphere suddenly became lively, and everyone expressed their opinions. Except for Guo Zhenbiao, almost everyone agreed with Lu Yiwei's development ideas.
In the subsequent show of hands segment, everyone raised their hands. Guo Zhenbiao saw that everyone raised their hands, and he slowly raised his hand reluctantly.
Lu Yiwei didn't expect it to be a unanimous vote. It indirectly showed that everyone could keep a clear head in the face of major issues, and did not vote according to their preferences.
