Chapter 2066 Central Plains Incident

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    ?The Central Plains Province in the hinterland of China has a vast land, dense population, and abundant products.  Since ancient times, there has been a saying that winning the Central Plains wins the world.

    Five years ago, Hu was transferred to the Central Plains, with great intentions of aspiring to the top of the world.

    This is a land that bred Chinese civilization, with a splendid cultural history of 5,000 years, and the Central Plains Province occupies an important place.  This is also the most densely populated area. From ancient times to the present, among the ten people in China, there must be one from the Central Plains.

    Anyone who is in charge of the Central Plains must go to Yanjing to be the leader.  This has become the norm.  After all, being able to control the province with the largest population in China will naturally win the world.

    Hu Jin sits in the Central Plains, which has deep meaning.

    From the Central Province to the Central Plains Province in one step, the future trajectory of Hu Jin's official career can already be clearly seen.

    Hu Jin, who is in charge of the Central Plains, does not seem to disappoint.  As soon as he came to power, he launched his grand plan of "Five Central Plains", which once set off a construction boom in China.

    However, criticism also followed.

    ? Hu Jin governed in the Central Plains in the same way as in Hengyue City.  He didn't consider the financial bearing capacity at all, and borrowed heavily to maintain prosperity after hollowing out the financial foundation of the original savings.

    The direct consequence of this is that the government's finances have formed a huge deficit, while the common people have enjoyed great preferential policies under the deficit.

    The most typical incident, Hu Jin used three years to suppress the high housing prices in Central Plains Province.

    Housing prices are the key that directly affects the vital interests of ordinary people.  For a long time, the crazy rise in housing prices has made countless families spend three generations of wallets and cannot buy a shelter from the wind and rain.  Many families spend two or more generations working from dawn to dusk for a family.

    Mortgage loans have become a noose around the necks of countless people.  When many people open their eyes every day, they will remember that they still owe the bank tens or hundreds of thousands of debts.  Moreover, this kind of life lasts for more than ten or twenty years, and the longest mortgage can even run through a person's life.

    It's a very harsh reality, and one that seems to be at a dead end.  No family seems to be able to escape the fate of carrying mortgages.

    Just imagine, a person has to run around for debts every day when he opens his eyes, what is his sense of happiness?

    Hu Jin keenly discovered that the main culprit for raising housing prices is land.  Land has become the main source of finance, which has been formed since the real estate market was liberalized.

    Land finance is the main source of countless local governments. To maintain the high-operation and high-consumption administrative functions, the government must have a steady stream of fiscal revenue.

    Land selling was once the main job of most local governments.

    In order to lower housing prices, land costs must first be lowered.  The decline in land costs directly affects local fiscal revenue.  This is a vicious circle, especially after Hu Jin exhausted his finances, and then used administrative means to reduce the cost of land, the hole in the financial deficit became bigger and bigger, and it has reached an irreparable level.

    The land itself is a non-renewable resource.  There is always a time when the land runs out.  Hu Jin once thought about using other industries to replace land finance, but unfortunately he never found a breakthrough.

    When fiscal policy encountered an unsustainable predicament, Hu Jin began to target some people.

    The smart Hu Jin knows that all those who get rich first by taking advantage of the policies have original sins that cannot be washed away.  And these original sins became Hu Jin's target.

    Thus, a massive anti-crime campaign kicked off in the Central Plains Province.

    Hu Jin held a very secret internal meeting.  Meeting minutes are not required after the meeting.  The participants are all people from all walks of life in the Central Plains Province holding heavy fists.

    At the meeting, Hu Jin requested that in the entire province, people with personal assets of more than 10 million should be included in a list.  This list will be kept by him as a top secret document and will never be unsealed.

    The Central Plains is a large province. After decades of economic development, the number of people with personal assets of more than 10 million can be described as countless.

    After the list finally came out, after browsing the list, Hu Jin picked up the red pen in front of him and circled a company named "Zhongyuan Iron and Steel Group".

    Judging from the name, Zhongyuan Iron and Steel Group Corporation should be a state-owned enterprise or a central enterprise.  In fact, this is a completely private enterprise.

    The owner of the company is called Zhang Zhaozhen. Tracing his background, he turned out to be a farmer.

    Zhang Zhaozhen is a flexible farmer.  In his spare time, he makes a living by going from village to household to buy scrap steel.  Zhang Zhaozhen is very famous in the local area for buying scrap iron.  First of all, he never undercuts the price.  Secondly, he never skimped on two.  As time goes by, many people are willing to??Old steel sold to him.

    Of course, Zhang Zhaozhen has a reason for buying scrap steel.  One of his relatives worked as the deputy director of a local steel factory.

    ? Once, Zhang Zhaozhen sent scrap iron to a steel mill. When chatting with him, his relatives complained that the current steel mill industry could not keep up with the demand.  Steel products on the market are rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.

    The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the heart.  Zhang Zhaozhen was not an ordinary farmer. He saw a message from newspapers on TV that the demand for steel in the future market would be a sky-high figure.

    Steelmaking itself is not a high-tech industry.  Once upon a time, there was an upsurge of steelmaking in the society.  At that time, Zhang Zhaozhen was already a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old.  He has personally witnessed the fact that an earthen stove and an earthen stove can produce iron lumps by only burning firewood.

    As a witness of the times, Zhang Zhaozhen believed that he could forge steel.

    When his relatives heard that he wanted to make steel, they came to him happily and proposed that he make steel together in the form of a joint stock.

    When he thought about it, he did it. Zhang Zhaozhen took out all his belongings, plus the 100,000 yuan from his relatives, and borrowed another 100,000 yuan from the bank. With 500,000 yuan, Zhang Zhaozhen started his business.  At that time, it took a very domineering name - Zhongyuan Steel Works.

    In fact, in the early 1980s, 500,000 was an astronomical sum for any family.

    Two months later, on the homestead of Zhang Zhaozhen's hometown, a blast furnace for steelmaking was erected.

    Some people say that Zhang Zhaozhen's success is created by the times.  But Zhang Zhaozhen insisted that it was his courage that made him.  He has a secret that he never tells, that is, he once thought that if his career failed, his only way out was to run and lie on the train track.

    Zhang Zhaozhen has caught up with a good time.  The first furnace of steel he smelted was bought by a local steel mill at a high price, and he promised that they would buy any products smelted by Zhang Zhaozhen Steel Plant.

    Thirty years have passed, and the Zhongyuan Steel Works has grown from a small workshop into a modern steel enterprise group, and its employees have also grown from two of its own in the past to a large private enterprise with more than 10,000 people.

    Zhang Zhaozhen, who has achieved success and fame, has now retired from the top position of the enterprise. His eldest son Zhang Biao took over his class and became the head of Zhongyuan Iron and Steel Group.

    Hu Jin remembered Zhang Biao.  When he first came to the Central Plains to perform his duties, he had direct contact with Zhang Biao at the banquet welcoming him to take office.

    As the boss of a large enterprise and a leader in the industry, Zhang Biao did not show due respect to his young provincial leader.  When Hu Jin took the initiative to toast the company representatives present, Zhang Biao actually shirked his physical discomfort and declined to clink glasses with him.

    If it is said that Zhang Biao showed arrogance when meeting him for the first time, then when Hu Jin went to the grassroots to inspect the enterprise, what Zhang Biao showed was not just arrogance, but arrogance.

    Hu Jin has a deep memory. When he went to Zhongyuan Iron and Steel Group for inspection, Chairman Zhang Biaoyi was holding an important group meeting and did not go downstairs to receive the inspection of the new governor.
