It was a quiet night.
The next day, the sun rose high in the sky. It was a brand new day.
Chen Xing's work was still carried out in an orderly manner. As the enlarged meeting of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee was held again, the Jiangcheng real estate rescue policy was officially introduced. The time limit of the subsidy policy was half a year, and the specific terms of the policy had not changed much since the last meeting. However, Chen Xing's efforts were not entirely in vain. The original financial subsidies for the purchase of houses in six districts directly under the municipal government had been reduced to four. As the main central area, the housing prices in Fengcheng District had always been very strong. Even in the case of the real estate recession, the housing prices had been rising steadily because the enthusiasm of the citizens to buy houses had not diminished.
As for Jiangfeng District, as the secondary central area, the real estate market in Jiangfeng District was also quite optimistic, and the inventory of the property market was in a reasonable range.
It could be said that the real estate market in Jiangcheng was also polarized. Fengcheng District outshone others, and the property market was hot. Jiangfeng District was also hot. Only the remaining suburban areas, such as Liyuan District and Bijiang District, had serious inventory of the property market, and the housing prices were still at the level of two or three years ago. Even so, the real estate market was still seriously unsalable. Many real estate companies had increased their preferential policies, but the situation was still grim.
Chen Xing could not stop the introduction of the city's rescue policy, but according to the actual situation of the city, reducing the subsidy areas to four was already the limit that Chen Xing could do.
In fact, Chen Xing also learned some secrets. According to the original policy, some people in the city hoped to stimulate the property market in Fengcheng District and Jiangfeng District to further heat up, to some extent, to promote the "panic" of the citizens to buy houses and revitalize the whole city's real estate market. This was also the reason why the original subsidy policy was made for all districts directly under the municipal government, and this idea did have a lot of room for operation.
Thinking about it, the sales of commercial housing in Fengcheng District and Jiangfeng District had always been very optimistic. Some of the hot real estate opened, and there was even a situation where people queued up to buy. Once the government returned the financial subsidies, it was conceivable that the enthusiasm of the people for buying houses would be further stimulated. Once the property market in Fengcheng District and Jiangfeng District was hyped up, it would inevitably drive the market of the whole city. Once the property market in Jiangcheng City was expected to be good, the purpose of the policy stimulus would also be achieved.
Chen Xing's suggestion at the meeting was reflected in this policy change. The scope of subsidies was relatively reduced, which was what Chen Xing could do now. It had to be said that Fu Jianjia gave Chen Xing some face this time. Without Fu Jianjia's approval at the meeting, Chen Xing knew that his suggestion would be put aside. In Jiang City, as the deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and the leader of the Municipal Party Committee, Fu Jianjia's words carried a lot of weight. However, as the mayor, Chen Xing was new here, so his subordinates all knew who to look at.
Chen Xing, what's going on in the city? Why did they introduce the property market stimulus policy so soon? Can't they wait for the housing prices in Jiang City to be higher? The best real estate in the downtown area has been hyped up to more than 50,000 yuan per square meter. In the evening, when Wu Gang and Chen Xing had dinner together, he couldn't help complaining.
This was a policy that Mayor Jing Yi had already started to study when he was in office, and Secretary Fu was behind it. Do you think I can stop it? Chen Xing shrugged.
A policy that Mayor Geng had been preparing to introduce when he was still in office? A trace of surprise flashed in Wu Gang's eyes. The Mayor Jing Yi that Chen Xing mentioned was the former Mayor of Jiang City, Geng Jingyi, but now he had retired to the second line. Hearing Chen Xing's words, Wu Gang immediately understood that this was not a question of whether Chen Xing could stop it at all. As a policy that had been prepared when the former Mayor was still in office, it was not appropriate for Chen Xing to express too many negative opinions at all.
After a pause, Wu Gang quickly captured another key point in Chen Xing's words. Perhaps the real reason was that Secretary Fu was behind it, right?
What do you think? Chen Xing glanced at Wu Gang and smiled slightly.
Alas, our Secretary Fu is good at everything, but he likes big projects too much. He always makes big investments. I heard that he is preparing to build a Huanwan Cross-Sea Bridge project that connects Licheng District and Nanyong City. The total investment is at least 5 billion yuan. No matter how much money the city finance has, it can't afford to spend so much money. Wu Gang smacked his lips.
"You don't need to worry about this. It should be me, the mayor, who should worry about it." Chen Xing smiled and shook his head. The Huanwan Cross-Sea Bridge project that Wu Gang mentioned did exist. As the mayor, even if he was newly appointed, the first thing Chen Xing needed to do after taking office was to understand the overall situation of the city. He also needed to find out the financial resources of the city, understand the development plan of the city in the next five years, and other key matters.
The Jiang City Cross-Sea Bridge project had already passed the early demonstration and was currently waiting for the approval of the state. The total investment budget of the project was 9 billion yuan, and it was one of the key projects of Jiang City in the next five years. Chen Xing was in favor of this Cross-Sea Bridge. Once it was completed, the distance from Nanyong City, a county-level city in the east of Jiang City, to Licheng District in the north would be greatly shortened from the original 40 minutes to 10 minutes. This would play a positive role in speeding up the regional economic circulation of Jiang City, building the economic integration of Jiang City, and promoting the economic development of Jiang City.
"You're right. It should be you, the mayor, who should worry about it. I'm just a Deputy Director of the Water Conservancy Bureau who sits on the bench and goes to work leisurely every day. These big events in the city really have nothing to do with me." Wu Gang grinned. "But Chen Xing, I don't think it's easy for you to be the mayor. The city finance is getting poorer and poorer year by year. I heard that the growth rate of the financial revenue last year slowed down for the first time. No wonder the city can't sit still. According to this situation, the finance has no money. How can they support the large investment of Secretary Fu in the projects?
As the provincial capital, Jiang City is under the eyes of the province. It's not easy for me to be the mayor.
"It's not easy for you to be the mayor, but it's not easy for the people either. Look, as soon as the growth rate of the financial revenue slowed down, the city immediately thought of the idea of using the land finance. The auction price of the land increased, and in the end, it was fed back to the housing price. In the end, the wool comes from the sheep, and the blood is drawn from the people.
"Brother Wu, when did you become so nationalistic? This style is not like you. Besides, even if the housing price rises, it has little to do with you. Your house is not small, and it's at least 130 square meters. It's enough for your family of three to live comfortably. Who cares about the housing price? It's not your turn to worry about it." Chen Xing said with a smile.
"Alas, Chen Xing, you're wrong. Who said I'm not worried about the housing price? My son will also have to buy a house in the future. According to the rising trend of the urban housing price, even if my wife and I have a high salary, we can't afford a house in the urban area of Jiang City. I'm really worried about this problem." Wu Gang said with a smile. "If I hadn't bought this house early, I wouldn't be able to afford a house in the urban area now.
It's still early for your son. I think you're worrying for nothing. "
"Who said it's early? He's going to be in high school. In a few years, we have to prepare to buy a house for him, right?"
Hearing Wu Gang's words, Chen Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "This is the Chinese style of parents."
"Okay, I won't talk about this topic with you." Chen Xing wisely stopped talking about this. "By the way, Brother Wu, you've been in Jiang City all the time, and you've been in contact with many aspects. I'll give you a task, which is to help me understand the situation of the local officialdom. If there's any trouble, tell me at any time."
"Okay, I can handle this kind of thing, and I'll report to you at any time." Hearing Chen Xing's words, Wu Gang understood Chen Xing's meaning, and immediately patted his chest and said.
As they were chatting, Wu Gang suddenly asked, "I haven't seen Zeng Jing on duty recently. Is she going to resume her duties soon?"
"How do you know that she's not on duty?"
"Hey, I often drive past the area where she used to be on duty when I go to work every day. I haven't seen her these days. Although she offended the squadron leader last time, she made a great contribution in the July 23 incident, so it's impossible that she's grounded. Then there's only one possibility, she's going to be promoted." Wu Gang smiled. "The most important thing is that you, the mayor, are helping her. I believe she should resume her duties soon."
"I have to ask her about this, but I think it should be soon. She's probably busy these days, and hasn't contacted me." Chen Xing smiled.
"It seems that I can make a meal out of Zeng Jing. When she resumes her duties, I must ask her to treat me to a big meal." Wu Gang's face was full of smiles. He was really happy for Zeng Jing that she could resume her duties.
"We'll talk about it when she's done with her work." Chen Xing nodded and smiled, glancing at Wu Gang. He knew that Wu Gang didn't have a good time in the Water Conservancy Bureau. Although Wu Gang didn't take the initiative to ask for anything, Chen Xing also planned to transfer Wu Gang to an important position. But it couldn't be rushed. There must be a suitable position and a suitable opportunity.
While Chen Xing and Wu Gang were eating, Ni Jiali was talking to a woman in a white T-shirt and denim shorts next to a red BMW 3 series in the parking lot of a hotel in Jiangcheng. The woman was quite excited and kept holding Ni Jiali's hand, but Ni Jiali's expression showed that she was in a dilemma.
"Sister Jiali, you have to help me. Whether our company can come back to life depends on this." The woman held Ni Jiali's hand and begged.
"Qingxue, it's not that I don't want to help you, but the key is that without Mayor Chen's permission, I dare not take you to see him privately. If he is dissatisfied with me, he can make me, the deputy general manager, leave with a word." Ni Jiali smiled bitterly.
"Oh, Sister Jiali, I believe you must have a way. Now that Mayor Chen is living in Jiangcheng Hotel, you can help me. If Mayor Chen moves away in the future, it will be more difficult to get in touch with him." The woman said anxiously, and then smiled bitterly. "But it's useless to wait. I have to see Mayor Chen as soon as possible."
"Qingxue, is that advertisement so important to your company?" Ni Jiali was a little puzzled.
It's important, very important. It concerns the survival of our company. Sister Jiali, you also know that my small advertising company has been struggling on the edge of life and death. It's very important to me whether this advertisement can be chosen by the city. If the city has already chosen an advertisement that's better than my idea, then I have nothing to say, and I won't trouble you. The key is that they used their connections to get selected through unfair competition. I can't accept this. I have to find Mayor Chen and make things clear. Back then, it was clearly said that it was an open audition for the public. The woman said agitatedly.
"Since they were selected through improper connections, then you can report it. There's no need to see Mayor Chen." Ni Jiali said helplessly.
"Sister Jiali, to think that you are someone who works in Jiangcheng Hotel. You have worked here for several years. Don't you know about the system? Do you think it's useful for me to report it? " The woman smiled bitterly. "I looked for Mayor Chen because I heard that it was Mayor Chen's idea to promote the Jiangcheng City advertisement on CCTV. Moreover, Mayor Chen takes this matter very seriously, so I think it's more useful to look for Mayor Chen."
