Chapter 112 Big Event One

On March 12, 2018, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization held a ceremony at the Truman Library in Independence City, Missouri, and officially accepted Poland, Hungary and Czech Republic as their new members. On that day, US Secretary of State Albright, Czech Foreign Minister Jan Kawan, Hungarian Foreign Minister Maurtoni Yanosh and Polish Foreign Minister Bronislaw Geremek were at the ceremony for Poland, Hungary and Czech Republic to officially join NATO.

People have seen the rapid expansion of "NATO", but Zeng Lingfeng, the reborn man, knows that this also means that another thing has begun to be brewing, that is, NATO is about to use force against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. If it follows the course of history, then the serious damage to the self-esteem of the Chinese people will soon begin. Next month, from April 23 to 25, NATO held a brain meeting in Washington to commemorate the 50th anniversary of NATO's establishment, signed and declared the Washington Declaration, and passed the "New Concept of Alliance Strategy", indicating that NATO has evolved from a "collective defense" organization to an offensive military alliance.

However, Zeng Lingfeng is not good at expressing any opinions on such matters. Besides, China's role in the world has changed a lot compared to this time in his previous life. Especially last year when the Chinese government accepted the merger of the Natuna Special Administrative Region into China, it further shows that China no longer fully adopts a passive defense policy. And the huge improvement in China's space strength is not hidden. It is unknown whether NATO, which is the United States, dares to bomb the Chinese embassy so unscrupulously.

On the same day that NATO expanded eastward, in the distant East, the newly born municipalities also shocked the whole country and even attracted widespread attention worldwide.

"Next, please ask the Mayor Comrade Zeng Chuipu to speak to everyone."

Wang Changxin, executive vice mayor who presided over the meeting, announced the last and most important links of the conference.

In the Yuzhou auditorium, there were applause like tsunamis.

Zeng Chuipu smiled, raised his hands and pressed down. The applause like the sea tide lasted for a long time before it slowly subsided. Most of the cadres respected Mayor Zeng from the bottom of their hearts.

For nothing else, it is a blessing for the people of the city to develop the economy of the new municipality into what it is now in two years.

"Comrades, today's commendation conference is very successful. Our city has indeed achieved certain achievements in the past year, and has achieved double harvests in spiritual civilization construction and material civilization construction. Especially in the field of rural party building work, under the correct leadership of former municipal party secretary Comrade Zhang Youde. Of course, these achievements are inseparable from all the comrades present. Without the joint efforts and efforts of all the cadres and masses in the city, it is not easy to achieve results..."

Mayor Zeng's calm baritone came out of the microphone and echoed in the spacious conference hall.

The cadres all held their breath and stared at the not-tall middle-aged man in the center of the rostrum, all of whom were focused. Everyone knows Mayor Zeng's personality, does not like to say too many clichés, and rarely gives long speeches.

None of the cadres dared to miss this.

Although there will be special documents after the meeting, the documents are dead, and they will definitely not be as rich and accurate as Mayor Zeng said it personally.

"To make progress, achieve results" Mayor Zeng's six-character mantra has long been familiar with the officialdom of municipalities directly under the central government.

"Comrades, I will take this opportunity to talk about two main issues. The first question is to effectively reduce the burden on farmers and increase the income of rural population." Zeng Chuipu said slowly.

The cadres are more straight and upright and stacking their spirits.

"The Third Plenary Session of the 15th CPC Central Committee held in October last year. The plenary session believed that agriculture, rural and peasant issues are major issues related to the overall situation of my country's reform, opening up and modernization. To complete the grand task of my country's cross-century exhibition determined by the 15th National Congress, it is necessary to further strengthen the basic status of agriculture, maintain the continuous development of agriculture and rural economy, maintain the stable growth of farmers' income, and maintain the stability of rural society. my country's reform took the lead in breaking through rural areas. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of reform and opening up, facing the impact of the Asian financial crisis and the challenges of economic globalization, this meeting focused on studying agricultural and rural issues is timely and necessary. The meeting reviewed and approved the Central Committee's decision on several major issues in agriculture and rural work."

In accordance with the basic program and overall deployment of the primary stage of socialism in our country determined by the 15th National Congress, the Plenary Session put forward the goal of building a new countryside with Chinese characteristics from now to two years from now to two years, and determined the policies that must be adhered to to achieve these goals. The Plenary Session emphasized that the primary stage of socialism in our country is a stage that is not reached, especially in rural areas. It is necessary to fully implement the Party’s basic line, and always regard the development of rural economy and the improvement of agricultural productivity as the center of the entire rural work. All policies should be conducive to enhancing the vitality of the rural economy, relying on farmers to use modern technology to advance to the depth and breadth of production, and continuously improve farmers’ material and cultural living standards.

The plenary session pointed out that developing rural productivity and promoting agricultural modernization is a long-term task. We must focus on solving the prominent problems that restrict the long-term and stable development of my country's agriculture, and comprehensively improve the comprehensive agricultural production capacity. We must accelerate the basic construction of agriculture with water conservancy as the focus, improve the agricultural ecological environment, effectively protect arable land, forest vegetation and water resources, lay a solid foundation for the sustainable development of agriculture and rural economy. Water conservancy construction must adhere to the principles of comprehensive planning, overall consideration, treatment of symptoms and root causes, and comprehensive governance, implement the combination of promoting profits and eliminating harm, paying equal attention to revenue and reducing expenditure, and implement flood control and drought resistance. The most urgent task is to increase investment, accelerate the comprehensive management of major rivers, rivers and lakes such as the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, and improve flood control capabilities. Promoting water irrigation should be regarded as a **

To take measures to significantly increase the utilization rate of water. The fundamental way out for agriculture lies in science and technology, and education. The transformation from traditional agriculture to modern agriculture, from extensive management to intensive management, will inevitably require a major exhibition of agricultural science and technology, and conduct a new agricultural science and technology. We must strengthen agricultural scientific research and technology promotion, adjust and optimize the rural economic structure, ensure the stable growth of output of major agricultural products such as grain, improve variety quality, and continuously improve economic benefits. Accelerate the structural adjustment and institutional innovation of township enterprises, formulate and improve policies and measures to promote urban health development, and enhance the vitality of the rural economy. We must promote rural health construction, increase poverty alleviation efforts, strive to increase farmers' income, and effectively reduce farmers' burdens."

Zeng Chuipu usually rarely reads the script. Even at such a city-wide cadre meeting, the same is true. Mayor Zeng was empty-handed, waved his arms from time to time to enhance his tone. Some cadres secretly admired him and spoke the main spirit of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee almost word-for-word, without any delay. It can be seen that this document has long been deeply rooted in Mayor Zeng's mind. Speaking of meticulousness, Mayor Zeng has already made a model.

"In order to effectively implement the spirit of the plenary session, our city must come up with our own things. What I want to talk about is to effectively reduce the burden on farmers and increase the income of the agricultural population. This is a hard indicator. The economy of our city has made certain progress in the past two years. Compared with the past, the financial resources are more abundant. So, how should we spend it when we have money? You may be thinking, of course, it is to reinvest, make the cake bigger, and raise more hens so that more eggs will be produced. This idea cannot be said to be wrong, but it is not comprehensive. If the economic development is carried out, more people should benefit. Our city, strictly speaking, is still an agricultural city. The city has about 70% of the population in the city and the agricultural population. Therefore, starting this year, the part that should be paid for the agricultural tax is fully exempted from the agricultural tax will be borne by the city and each district and county. If some districts and counties have temporary difficulties, the city will give certain subsidies based on the actual situation."

Zeng Chuipu said slowly.

"Ah?" The cadres were shocked and looked at each other. Even the members of the Municipal Party Committee standing committee on the rostrum were shocked and asked each other with their eyes. Everyone saw that even the face of the Executive Vice Mayor Wang Changxin was a moment of confusion. Obviously, even Wang Changxin was not aware of this decision in advance.

"In 1996, the city's total fiscal revenue was 9.5 billion yuan, and the agricultural tax and agricultural specialty tax were only 1.5 billion yuan; in 1997, the total fiscal revenue was 12.3 billion yuan, and the agricultural tax and agricultural specialty tax were 1.5 billion yuan; in 1998, the city's fiscal revenue exceeded 20 billion yuan, reaching 20.5 billion yuan, while the agricultural tax and agricultural specialty tax were reduced to 1.3 billion yuan. Therefore, the conditions for the complete abolishment of agricultural tax and agricultural specialty tax were fully mature. This is a hard indicator. Districts and counties that have not completed this indicator must bear responsibility."

Zeng Chuipu's tone was decisive.

After a moment, Wang Changxin took the lead in applauding, and thunderous applause sounded again from the audience.

"The second question I want to talk about is a people's livelihood project involving the whole city. The reality of coexistence of large cities, rural areas, and mountainous areas makes Chongqing people unable to sit still and sleep well. What kind of exhibition path is the scientific exhibition that conforms to Chongqing?" Mayor Zeng first put forward a thought question that everyone thought about. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

I still add a tail to the back, please support me, recommend votes or monthly tickets, and of course, it is also OK for everyone to give me a reward of Xuelian. Xuelian will not refuse anyone, haha.
