Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1417 Buffer

In fact, after Duan Yun came back from the United States this time, he has always had the idea to set up a high-tech industrial cluster outside Shenzhen Customs. After all, the land here is rich in resources and the environment is also very beautiful.

The coastline of Shenzhen is very long. There are coastlines in Longgang District, Yantian District, Futian District, Nanshan District, and Baoan District of Shenzhen. But the coastlines of Longgang District and Yantian District are the ones that can really swim. The most famous ones are the big and small Meisha in Yantian District. , Nan'ao and Dapeng in Longgang.

Therefore, Duan Yun set up the R&D center in these two areas outside the customs, and the surrounding area is close to the coast. If the development is good, it can be comparable to Silicon Valley in the United States in terms of environment.

"Duan Yun, your idea is very good..." Li Hao obviously understood the meaning for many years, only to hear him continue: "But if you really want to implement it, it will be much more difficult than you imagined..."

"Then what do you mean..." Duan Yun asked with a slight frown.

"First of all, the land development in Shenzhen has always been a focus of our city government's work, but now our special zone is a very sensitive area in the whole country. Any new policies and plans need to be reported. You should be able to understand that it can only be passed through national discussion and approval, right?" Li Hao said seriously to Duan Yun.

The meaning of Li Hao's words is very clear, that is, in terms of land development in Shenzhen, the SZ municipal government does not have the final decision-making power, especially some major development projects must be approved by the high-level state before they can be passed.

In the past 10 years of reform and opening up, the country has been crossing the river by feeling the stones. A wrong move may bring very serious consequences.

Shenzhen was originally an "experimental field" for the country's reform and opening up. Although it has developed well in recent years, there are still many problems. This also requires the country to have a very cautious attitude towards Shenzhen's reform. A final decision can only be made after complex internal discussions.

The main reason why the country divided the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone into the inside and outside of the customs was that it wanted to use the area outside the customs as a buffer zone similar to a "firewall". "Yes, the previous leaders of the Shenzhen government have also been well aware of this truth, so even if the gap between the outside of the customs and the inside of the customs is getting bigger and bigger, they still dare not further develop the areas outside the customs.

Therefore, although the idea proposed by Duan Yun is good, and it is indeed feasible to some extent, even if the SZ city government is willing to do this, due to the country's cautious decision-making attitude towards Shenzhen's development, let this plan full of uncertainties.

The way of thinking of businessmen and government officials is different. Businessmen can have some positive and bold ideas, but the government must put stability first when formulating policies, especially for events that will have a great impact on the local society. Care must be taken when making decisions.

"I can understand your difficulties, Mayor Li, but I always feel that some things cannot be broken or established. If we don't try, we may lose a lot of opportunities..." Duan Yun thought for a while, and then said: "Our Tianyin Group as a The development of a private enterprise to such a scale is inseparable from the strong support and assistance of our city government over the years. Therefore, Tianyi Group also wants to make a contribution to the development of our SZ market. If the city government If you are willing to set up a high-tech research and development center outside the customs, then Tianyin Group will be obliged to make our own contribution."

"Duan Yun, I understand your thoughts, but to develop such a large area outside the customs, the manpower, material resources and funds required are very huge, which is not a small amount..." Li Hao said looking directly at Duan Yun.

"I know it's not a small amount, so if the city government is willing to develop outside the customs, our Tianyin Group can provide 8 million yuan of funds for the development of high-tech industrial zones!" Duan Yun said bluntly .

"8 million funds!?" Hearing the number reported by Duan Yun, Li Hao was startled.

Li Hao had already expected that Duan Yun would contribute money, but he did not expect that Duan Yun would use such a large sum of 8 million yuan for the development outside the customs.

Funding has always been a big problem for the SZ city government.

In 1981, Shenzhen’s finances were tight. The general public budget revenue was less than 1 million yuan, only 8787 million yuan, and the general public budget expenditure was 8411 million yuan. In 1988, Shenzhen’s general public budget revenue exceeded 10 billion yuan, and the general public budget expenditure was 8 million yuan. About 1/10 of this year's total fiscal expenditure in Shenzhen can be allocated by Duan Yun at one time, which cannot but be said to be an astonishing figure.

For any government in mainland China, as long as the funding problem can be solved, other things will be easy to handle.

The lack of economic development in Shenzhen has always been a big problem. Due to the huge economic gap between inside and outside the customs, the local security situation outside the customs has deteriorated year by year. The problem is very serious. This is also a long-standing problem that has plagued the Shenzhen local government for many years.

And if Duan Yun invests the 8 million yuan in development outside the customs, it can provide a lot of jobs for the local area, drive economic development, and thus alleviate some public security problems outside the customs. This is indeed a big deal for the SZ city government The best of both worlds.

"The 8 million RMB is just an initial investment, and we will continue to invest some funds for the research and development of high-tech industries in the later stage." Duan Yun saw that Li Hao was a little tempted, so he continued: "I think Mayor Li will also It must be clear that our Shenzhen’s development over the years cannot be separated from the drive of high-tech industries. It can be said that high-tech is the engine of our Shenzhen’s development. If this high-tech industrial park in Shenzhen outside the customs can be built, it will attract high-tech companies at home and abroad. If you stay here, it will be of great long-term and great help to the overall economic development of Shenzhen..."

"Your idea is indeed good, but you may not know much about the situation outside the customs." Li Hao glanced at Duan Yun approvingly, only to hear him frown slightly and said: "The city government can help you with policy matters." Some support and discounts are provided outside the customs, but the problem is that the current security situation outside the customs is very bad, so bad that you can't imagine. In the past year alone, there were thousands of fights, robberies and thefts outside the customs in Shenzhen, almost every day. Vicious public security incidents have occurred, how many companies do you think will choose to set up enterprises and R&D centers outside Shenzhen Customs in such an environment?"
