Rebirth of Minister Qi

Chapter 682 Free Trade Zone

Gao Yuliang thought about it for a while and agreed.

“Why isn’t this group called the Port Leadership Group?”

Qi Tongwei smiled.

"Of course, it's to use the tiger's skin to raise the banner. The free trade pilot zone is just this large area, which includes the world's number one port.

It’s still the same reason as last time. Jiangzhou City must boldly launch big projects instead of being restrained. What is the purpose of a port project? Isn’t it to promote international trade?

It would be better to simply place the port project within a large trade policy cluster to promote international trade in all aspects.

Big projects can better convince the leaders.”

Gao Yuliang was basically brainwashed by Qi Tongwei. He knew the special status of Jiangzhou city, the biggest, the most international, the best. The more high-end the project, the more the superiors might like it. He also felt this feeling in his contacts with some of the superiors. The leaders have different expectations for different regions, which can be regarded as adapting to local conditions.

"Okay, I'll do it. I'll first transfer him to the Pujiang New District Committee.

Although there will be gossips there, as long as he has made achievements, all the gossips will be compliments. "

Pujiang New District is still Gao Yuliang's territory. Most of the leadership team were promoted by Gao Yuliang. He has full confidence going there, and it is not a problem to arrange one more deputy secretary.

Pujiang New District is at the level of a full department head, and the deputies in the leadership team are all at deputy department head level, unless clearly at the level of a full department head. The street offices are at the level of a full division head, but all district-level departments are at deputy department head level, which is somewhat similar to a sub-provincial city.

The two main leaders, one concurrently serves as a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, and the other concurrently serves as deputy mayor. Both are at the vice-ministerial level. In terms of status, they are actually higher than the main leaders of sub-provincial cities.

It can be said that he is a very strong force in Jiangzhou City, and the territory he manages is the best experimental field. Gao Yuliang is very powerful in Jiangzhou City at this time. What was said in the previous article that he can sideline the mayor with the support of the secretary is not empty talk.

Qi Tongwei listened to Gao Yuliang's domineering speech and gave him a thumbs up. At this moment, Gao Yuliang was much happier than when he was the deputy secretary of Handong in his previous life.

At least as long as Secretary Zhao is still in office in Jiangzhou City, Gao Yuliang will definitely be the first deputy and will be in charge of the most important work.

A few days later, Ye Biao arrived in Pujiang New District as deputy secretary, without any clear responsibilities, and was waiting for approval from higher authorities for the leading group.

Qi Tongwei was called by Secretary Zhao to the enlarged meeting of the Standing Committee.

Zhao Mengsheng arranged for Gao Yuliang to preside over the enlarged meeting of the Standing Committee. This behavior made Mayor Niu very uncomfortable. Some time ago, he went to his superiors to make a report, but it was of no use. The superiors told him to be a good deputy in execution and not to think about confronting the Municipal Party Committee. At this time, he was very well-behaved.

Gao Yuliang began to explain the overall plan of the free trade pilot zone on the stage. Many members of the Standing Committee were whispering below. This time, the enlarged meeting of the Standing Committee only included members of the party group of the municipal government.

Qi Tongwei secretly observed the expressions of the Standing Committee leaders. Unlike in other novels, he could not tell 30% of this and 30% of that from other people's faces.

There was no extra expression on the faces of these old foxes. Qi Tongwei was sure that even if Gao Yuliang was talking about postpartum care for sows, their expressions would be the same.

The reason is very simple. Secretary Zhao is behind Gao Yuliang. This series of major plans are all Secretary Zhao's ideas. They dare not oppose it openly.

"Ahem, Vice Mayor Qi. Please explain the overall function of this new port."

Zhao Mengsheng took the initiative to ask Qi Tongwei to speak next. This was not on the set agenda. Really, Secretary Zhao really liked to tease Qi Tongwei.

However, this major project was originally proposed by Qi Tongwei, and he was familiar with all the concepts and data. Even if Secretary Zhao did not inform him in advance, it would not be difficult for him.

"Secretary Zhao, Mayor Niu, and all the leaders. Our free trade zone is going to be established in Pujiang New District, which will include a bonded area and a deep-water port, and will divide the entire Pujiang New District into five free trade zone areas.

This will be our national strategy, and a carrier of reform and opening up with new connotations in terms of guiding ideology, strategic positioning, overall goals, tasks and measures for national-level new areas, development zones, and industrial parks.

Within the entire free trade zone, Pujiang International Airport, Pujiang Railway Station and the yet-to-be-named deep-water port are all important components.

I suggest that we establish a closed bonded logistics park based on our first special customs supervision area, namely Gaoqiao Bonded Zone, a comprehensive bonded zone at Pujiang Airport, and a special bonded logistics zone in the to-be-named deep-water port.

At the same time, we will issue licenses to the first batch of enterprises and financial institutions that will be settled in the bonded area, and provide special financial policies and tax incentives to enterprises headquartered in the bonded area..."

Zhao Mengsheng knew that Qi Tongwei's series of major plans were based on the premise that he agreed to let Qi Tongwei take over as the secretary of the Pujiang New District Party Committee. This kid really didn't want to suffer any loss.

The entire bonded area plan is based on the jurisdiction of Pujiang New Area, with only a small part of the territory of other districts. If we follow the principle of unified power and authority, it would be best for the Pujiang New Area District Party Committee and District Government to operate jointly with the newly established Management Committee. If Gao Yuliang, the Executive Vice Mayor, concurrently serves as the Secretary of the Management Committee, it will be helpful for the initial framework building. However, for subsequent operations, it is best to have the District Party Committee and District Government as the main body.

This guy is very shrewd. It seems that he has set his sights on the position of director of the Management Committee this time. As long as he makes achievements, he will take over as secretary of the Management Committee and concurrently serve as district party secretary of Pujiang New Area. This is the order of succession in terms of work. He is afraid of breaking his promise, so he has put forward such a big plan.

After listening to Qi Tongwei's speech, Zhao Mengsheng knocked on the table.

"I think everyone has heard Vice Mayor Qi's explanation. The entire bonded zone plan is now divided into several major parts. I plan to establish a Free Trade Zone Leading Group. Mayor Niu and I will serve as the group leader and executive deputy group leader, and members of the Standing Committee will serve as deputy group leaders. Executive Vice Mayor Gao Yuliang and Vice Mayor Qi Tongwei will serve as the office director and deputy director respectively.

Set up subordinate institutions, the Free Trade Zone Management Committee, Gao Yuliang is the executive party secretary, the current Pujiang New Area Party Committee Secretary and Deputy Mayor Qi Tongwei are the deputy secretaries, directors and first deputy directors of the Management Committee..."

Zhao Mengsheng was very courageous. After the entire draft plan received initial approval from the top leaders, he immediately organized a leadership body and made it clear that Gao Yuliang and Qi Tongwei were the leaders. Gao Yuliang was in charge of the construction of the overall framework, and Qi Tongwei's current responsibility was to focus on the construction of a deep-water port.
