Chapter 725: Chapter 493: Gone Mad!

As Linghai officials, we can’t always be "neglecting our duties."

At 8:30 in the morning, Han Yu arrived half an hour early at the Linghai Agricultural Bureau’s third-floor eting room, as notified by the call from the Managent Committee’s Party and Governnt Office yesterday.

The eting that was about to be convened was regarding distant-water fishery production, and it was said that Mayor Qian and Deputy Mayor Zhang, who is in charge of agriculture, would attend.

The heads of several coastal townships, such as the Linghai Agricultural Bureau Fishery Station, Linghai Aquatic Products Company, San Zao Port, the secretaries of several large fishery production teams, and the leaders of several small enterprises engaged in fishing vessel repair and seafood processing, had already arrived.

Yesterday Han Yu had called Deputy Mayor Shen and found out why Mayor Qian specifically nad him to attend this eting, and he was thinking about how to report to the leadership later when the manager of the aquatic products company unexpectedly started talking about the rger of three townships in the developnt zone with several coastal township heads.

Yesterday’s organizational and personnel adjustnts in the developnt zone were drastic.

Although Han Yu did not attend the all-mbers eting of Party cadres in the developnt zone, he was not surprised by the dismissal and demotion of so many officials, as Deputy Mayor Shen had revealed this privately two months ago.

The cadre team was bloated and seriously overstaffed, how to reduce the burden on farrs if the three townships were not rged? After all, so many officials were said to be supported by the fiscal budget, but in reality, it was the common people who were supporting them.

As for the significant slimming down of the Managent Committee, even demoting several vice directors, the main reason was to change the functions of the organization. By shifting all the energy-intensive Party and administrative functions to the newly established Sanhe Street, the Managent Committee could focus solely on attracting investnts and operating the developnt zone to promote economic developnt.

At the sa ti, it was also in preparation for applying for provincial and even national level economic and technological developnt zones in the future.

The goal of the city was to make the developnt zone a provincial-level one within five years, with at least Vice Director administrative level. If we do not adjust cadres now, once the Managent Committee is upgraded, many currently serving officials will not be eligible for promotion due to age, education, and other factors. It would be unreasonable to let people go at that ti; after all, these people have not only contributed but also endured hardships.

If we can successfully apply for a national-level developnt zone in the future, the administrative level of the unit could even reach Vice Director Level. By then, not to ntion that Deputy Mayor Shen will not be able to serve as the secretary and director of the Managent Committee; even Secretary Ye would need approval from the Provincial Committee to take on the dual roles if he wished, as Vice Director Level officials are under the province’s jurisdiction.

In short, the Developnt Zone Party Working Committee cannot have too many mbers, only a few and the best, and the Managent Committee should follow the sa principle.

Han Yu was secretly wondering what virtues and abilities he possessed to still cling onto a seat as a mber of the Developnt Zone Party Working Committee when Mayor Qian and Deputy Mayor Zhang, accompanied by the director of the Agricultural Bureau and the deputy director of the governnt office, entered the eting room.

The current city leadership places great importance on industry. Today, they finally gave attention to agriculture, which excited all the participants, who imdiately gave a warm round of applause.

Deputy Mayor Zhang chaired the eting. After introducing the leaders and participants at the eting, he followed the agenda and invited the comrades attending the eting to speak, mainly to report on the state of fishery production.

Today’s eting was convened by the Agricultural Bureau, with the notice sent out yesterday, so everyone who ca to the eting was prepared to report.

Starting with the secretaries of the several large fishery brigades, they read from their prepared speeches.

The brigade has a total number of fishing boats and fishern; last year, the number of days spent at sea fishing, the amount of fish caught, the money made, and the significant improvent in the living standards of fishern.

After the brigade secretaries reported, the person in charge at the township level summarized and reported on the fishing production of the entire township, followed by the report from the aquatic products company, detailing the total amount they purchased from the sea and the sales made to large cities like East Sea. Lastly, the deputy director of the Agricultural Bureau responsible for Fishery Administration and fishery reported.

All were achievents, presenting a great prospect!

What Mayor Qian really wanted to hear was not these. He put down his pen, looked up, and asked, "What about distant-water fisheries? Do our Linghai fishery production enterprises and fishern go to distant seas for fishing?"

"..."

"Comrades, Dongqi City has been engaging in distant-water fishing in Morocco’s waters with their own fishing vessels since 1992. Are we in Linghai lagging behind in distant-water fishery production?"

"Mayor Qian, Dongqi has a longer coastline than ours, and historically, they have more fishing boats and fishern than we do. They currently have over a thousand fishing boats with proper licenses, which is six tis that of Linghai. Additionally, Dongqi is continuously building new fishing vessels."

"Dongqi has a better foundation in marine fisheries than we do?"

"Much better, just the Lvsi Fishing Ground has supported them for decades."

Lack of ambition, no sense of crisis, and no planning at all for the future developnt of marine fisheries.

However, having said that, this is related to the degree of importance the City Committee and Municipal Governnt give to it, so we cannot entirely bla the people below.

Mayor Qian sighed inwardly and said, "Comrade Han Yu, you are familiar with both the Agricultural Ministry East Sea District Fishery Bureau and the City Agricultural Bureau Fishery Station, and you have traveled to many places, north and south. Please introduce the developnt of distant-water fisheries in Dongqi, Binjiang, and the whole Jiangnan Province to everyone."

"Okay."

Han Yu collected his thoughts and said quickly, "Leaders, I’m not very proficient in marine fishery production, but because of my work, I often deal with the Ministry of Agriculture Fishery and City Fishery, and I have so understanding of this area."

Mayor Qian chuckled and said, "Don’t be modest; I estimate we won’t find anyone in Linghai who knows more than you do."

"Mayor Qian, I better start my report first."

Han Yu organized his thoughts and said calmly, "The severe lag in the developnt of distant-water fisheries is not unique to Linghai; Binjiang City and our Jiangnan Province are the sa. It is fair to say that the developnt of distant-water fisheries in Jiangnan Province is completely disproportionate to the province’s economic developnt."
