450: Peace Town has surpassed the level of a typical district or county.
"Vice Governor Zheng, if I hadn't known beforehand that this was a town, I would have thought it was the seat of a district or county!"
"As expected of the number one town among the top ten in your Huanan Province; it is indeed extraordinary. Seeing it once is truly better than hearing about it a hundred times!"
Zhang Jiaming spoke up of his own accord.
"To be honest, Director Zhang, this is also my first time in Yushu City, and its development in all aspects has given me quite a few surprises!"
"Heping Town truly deserves its rank as the top town in the province. The street planning and architecture we see before us are already on par with ordinary districts and counties."
Zheng Jiadong said with a smile.
Hearing their conversation, Wan Guoliang took the opportunity to say, "Leaders, according to my understanding, the Heping Town Economic Development Zone has already attracted investments from over a hundred enterprises."
"There are thirty-five enterprises with an annual output value exceeding one hundred million yuan, providing over ten thousand jobs for the local people."
"The annual per capita income in Heping Town has surpassed thirty thousand yuan, making it the leading township in all of Yushu City. It has high foot traffic and diverse, flexible job opportunities, making it easy to find work."
"If the jingnan high-speed railway line passes through Yushu City, Heping Town would be the undisputed choice for the second high-speed railway station."
Hearing Wan Guoliang's words, Zheng Jiadong nodded with a smile, but Zhang Jiaming did not express an opinion, as doing so now would compromise his professional stance.
He understood one thing from Wan Guoliang's words: Yushu City not only wanted to secure the jingnan high-speed railway line passing through but also aimed to establish two high-speed railway stations within its borders.
Zhang Jiaming also realized that Wan Guoliang, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, was completely on Yushu City's side.
As they spoke, the motorcade drove toward the Yingjianzui Scenic Area.
More than ten minutes later, the Yingjianzui Scenic Area appeared before them. On the construction site of the Film and Television City adjacent to the scenic area, work was in full swing.
After everyone got out of the cars, the technical personnel in the following vehicles, after receiving instructions, drove off to survey the terrain and route.
Watching the tourists stream into the scenic area, Zhang Jiaming spoke again, "I've heard of this Yingjianzui Scenic Area, but I didn't expect there to be so many tourists even on regular days."
"Is that project under development over there also part of the Yingjianzui Scenic Area?"
At Zhang Jiaming's inquiry, everyone's gaze fell on Lin Zifeng again. Lin Zifeng signaled to Xu Minghao beside him with a glance.
Xu Minghao quickly said, "Leader, it's like this: the construction over there is not a project of the Yingjianzui Scenic Area."
The Yingjianzui Scenic Area has been fully developed and completed. That construction site is for the Film and Television City project, which we are co-developing with Beijing's Yanran Entertainment Media Company.
"For this Film and Television City project, Yanran Entertainment Media Company has invested seven billion yuan, and Yushu City has invested three billion yuan, for a total investment of ten billion yuan. We are developing a Film and Television City that integrates filming and sightseeing, along with infrastructure for related derivative industries."
"Oh, another ten-billion-yuan project, and it's even a joint development with Yanran Entertainment Media Company."
Yanran Entertainment Media Company is a nationally renowned entertainment company with great strength and significant influence in the entertainment industry.
Once this Film and Television City is built, there's no need to worry about a lack of production crews coming to film. This is a very promising development project!"
Zhang Jiaming spoke with some surprise, thinking to himself, "It seems what Yang Zhongqiang said was true! This Lin Zifeng really is an honored guest of the Li and Yang families."
"Otherwise, that Miss Li, who is famous in Beijing circles, wouldn't have come to invest in the area under Lin Zifeng's jurisdiction. This is clearly intended to boost Lin Zifeng's political achievements."
"With the Li and Yang families as his backers, this Lin Zifeng cannot be underestimated! His future prospects are limitless!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Jiaming spoke again, "Vice Governor Zheng, let's take this opportunity to tour the scenic area as well!"
"Let our Secretary Lin give us a good explanation of the planning for the Film and Television City and its positioning for future development."
"Sure, Director Zhang. I've known for a long time that the Yingjianzui Scenic Area is very famous and attracts many tourists from other provinces."
"I once planned to bring my family here, but I've been too busy with work to make the trip."
"Since we have this opportunity today, we shouldn't miss it. Let's consider it combining business with pleasure!"
After saying this, Zheng Jiadong and Zhang Jiaming, accompanied by Lin Zifeng and the others, walked into the scenic area together.
There were many recreational activities within the Yingjianzui Scenic Area, but given the status of Zheng Jiadong and the others, it was impossible for them to participate in such activities.
They simply climbed the mountain to view the scenery and then took the cable car down.
Lin Zifeng came down in a cable car with Wan Guoliang, following closely behind the cable car carrying Zheng Jiadong and Zhang Jiaming.
The cable car moved slowly, allowing them to enjoy the surrounding views from the air.
Wan Guoliang took this opportunity to say, "Secretary Zifeng, the leaders' inspection tour is almost over. After we go back for lunch, they will be heading to Jianyang County."
"I see that Director Zhang is very satisfied with the inspection in Yushu City. Barring any accidents, the probability of the jingnan high-speed railway line passing through Yushu City is very high."
"This wouldn't have been possible without Secretary Guoliang's help! Thank you, Secretary Guoliang."
Lin Zifeng said quickly.
"Is there any need for such politeness between us? Besides, I only played a supporting role; it was your thorough preparations that really mattered!"
Wan Guoliang said with a chuckle.
The two soon reached the bottom of the mountain. Once everyone had regrouped, they got into the cars and left.
The motorcade returned to the Municipal Party Committee Compound before noon. After having lunch together at the Government Canteen, Zhang Jiaming and the others declined Lin Zifeng's invitation to go to the Guesthouse for a noon break.
Accompanied by Lin Zifeng and the others, they prepared to board the vehicles and depart for Jianyang County.
As they were parting, Zhang Jiaming shook Lin Zifeng's hand and said, "Secretary Lin, this trip to Yushu City has left a deep impression on me."
I now fully believe that you and Yushu City's leadership team have the ability to develop Yushu City into the Pearl of the Orient in the southern region.
Your Yushu City has this development potential, and I believe you can achieve it.
If there's an opportunity in the future, I will come to Yushu City again. I look forward to Yushu City surprising me once more next time, and I look forward to meeting Secretary Lin again.
"Thank you, Leader, for your expectations and the high hopes you've placed in Yushu City. We will certainly continue to work hard, and we won't disappoint you when you visit next time."
Our Yushu City welcomes your visit at any time."
Lin Zifeng said quickly with a sincere expression.
Zhang Jiaming nodded with satisfaction and went to shake hands with Xu Minghao. Only then did Lin Zifeng shake hands with Zheng Jiadong to say goodbye.
Zheng Jiadong once again gave high praise to Yushu City's work. Finally, he kindly patted Lin Zifeng on the shoulder as a gesture of encouragement before letting go of his hand.
Lin Zifeng then shook hands with Wan Guoliang to say goodbye. Wan Guoliang whispered in his ear, "Secretary Zifeng, if there are any unexpected developments, I will notify you in time."
However, the possibility is slim to none. I expect there won't be any surprises, so just wait for the good news in Yushu City!"
After expressing his gratitude, Lin Zifeng went to shake hands and say goodbye to the others.
