In name only: The land of Handong, I shall rule its fate.

Tell me more.

Sha Ruijin's eyes lit up, like the sun overhead. Why had he summoned Lin Zhiyuan? Wasn't it precisely for this plan that could turn the impossible into possible, and transform constraints into opportunities?

"The reason for establishing the red line for arable land is that my country is a populous country, and it is necessary to ensure the security of basic production, while also avoiding the over-exploitation of the environment."

Lin Zhiyuan smiled slightly, "Isn't this precisely the practical application of the concept of sustainable scientific development?"

"Based on our development philosophy, the first thing we must do is to deeply understand that Jiangdong itself lacks in-depth scientific research capabilities and is not yet capable of leading the world in any particular industry in the short term."

"therefore…"

"Before Jiangdong can grow strong, it needs to learn to be an enclave. The concept and necessity of science and technology innovation enclaves are explained in detail in my development plan for Chuzhou, so I won't go into too much detail."

"The existence of science and technology innovation enclaves can also serve as a bridge for the '4+4 development model'."

"Externally, Jiangdong's food and beverage, textile, and electromechanical equipment industries are connecting with the automated production lines in Luzhou and Yangzhou to complete industrial upgrading as soon as possible, making them more planned, standardized, and clear; the traditional furniture industry is proactively connecting with Zhao Ruilong's IoT platform in Wuzhou and obtaining technology authorization to transform towards modern intelligence and high-end customization."

"In addition to equipment and technological innovation, the municipal party committee and government should also do a good job in planning the industrial chain. The establishment of the Donghu Chemical Industrial Park is a good example. We can refer to the establishment of special textile industrial parks, food blocks, and electromechanical equipment parks in major areas. Jiangdong should become the national textile capital, food capital, and cradle of electromechanical infrastructure."

"But these four traditional industries have almost no barriers to entry, so there's no future in them. That might be good for inland cities, but for Jiangdong and Handong, it's far from enough."

"We will also collaborate with e-commerce platforms in Jiangdong to coordinate operations, create a brand for green consumption and green industries, gradually change domestic consumers' consumption habits, and at the same time focus our main efforts on exports to maintain previous profits."

"But where does this green business card come from?"

Lin Zhiyuan looked at Sha Ruijin across from him and said, "Naturally, it is the leading advanced iterative technology. This is the second meaning of the science and technology innovation enclave. On the one hand, Jiangdong serves as a special factory for brother cities to meet their production needs. On the other hand, it will make use of the high-end talents of brother cities, gather them together, and develop technologies related to green industries."

"For example, the emerging bio-based new materials industry has a potential scale of trillions, but the majority of it is occupied by food-based materials, which is something we cannot do. We can only develop applications of non-food bio-based materials, which is a project that requires long-term special funding subsidies and is considered a small link in the entire green industry."

"To rapidly boost Jiangdong's GDP at this stage, we need to develop the entire value chain. For example, green building materials and new energy are included in the 4+4 plan. Jiangdong has a certain industrial foundation in both of these, especially in new energy-related industries such as photovoltaic energy storage, membrane materials, and laser optoelectronics. These three industries have the potential to cultivate clusters worth hundreds of billions of yuan."

"Remember not to get involved in the complete assembly of photovoltaic energy storage systems; only provide component supply. Otherwise, it will affect the established layout in other cities."

"At the same time, it will be used in conjunction with other pharmaceutical and electronic intermediate materials industries."

"By creating a complete chain from manufacturing to materials to local green consumer brands, we can support basic industries upstream and provide fragmented support for the entire province's industrial chain downstream, which is expected to push the potential of the entire Jiangdong region to the trillion-yuan level."

"Of course, this path will be slow and difficult, and we will need to reach out to some foreign companies that possess key technologies along the way."

"but…"

Lin Zhiyuan concluded, "Now that we've made progress, we might as well apply for a national-level project and designate Jiangdong as a green industry demonstration park."

Just hearing about it made Sha Ruijin feel exhilarated, his mind filled with "trillions" and "national-level industrial parks." As for the foreign-funded enterprises that Lin Zhiyuan mentioned possessing relevant technologies, well, he happens to have a few of them.

Just one point…

Going to Zhao Ruilong to make contact would be tantamount to bowing down to the Zhao family, and I came to Handong with the determination to crush the Zhao family.

Although nothing was accomplished.

And he went to make contact with the Zhao family…

Will his superiors suspect that he is colluding with Zhao Lichun?

Lin Zhiyuan watched everything with a smile.

Ah!

Without understanding what you have in your pocket, how could you propose a development plan centered on intermediate materials?

Their fighting spirit never dies.

Why not have you go and beg your enemy to calm down and burn off the energy you've been sitting in the office all day with nowhere to vent?

"Hi hi!"

The gerbil poison was really a dilemma, so I decided to put it aside for the time being and directly changed the subject, saying, "Governor Zhiyuan, I have read your previous planning report, which includes an additional project for Jingzhou, Lüzhou, and Chuzhou."

"You can't treat the people of Jiangdong differently, can you?"

Lin Zhiyuan shook his head.

"It's not that I don't want to increase investment, but that Jiangdong City currently lacks the material foundation for such investment."

Lin Zhiyuan replied bluntly and cruelly, "Jiangdong's most urgent task is to make up for its backward foundation and get on the same starting line as other brother cities in the province."

"but…"

"I have one more plan and one supplement for the development of Jiangdong."

"We'll see!"

Sha Ruijin instantly put aside his embarrassment and annoyance at being rejected and resumed his work at the desk.

"Membrane materials are a major feature of Jiangdong's new industrial development, and it has a leading level in the country. If it is combined with the optoelectronic supporting component cluster and the digital consumer goods industrial belt, and if it invests in industries such as laser optoelectronic components and optical lenses, it can complete a large cluster of 'functional film - optoelectronic supporting - laser equipment - digital consumer goods - supporting service industry'. With long-term development over ten to fifteen years, it is also expected to reach a trillion yuan."

"The other filing is a deeper extension of the first plan, focusing on high-performance recycled new materials, recovering waste materials including waste plastics and chemical fibers, and chemically reproducing polyester particles and nylon particles to supply downstream production enterprises."

"The advantages are the existing industrial base and technology, which are in line with international environmental protection policies. The disadvantages are the long development cycle and the difficulty in achieving high-performance recycling technology."

"A city's finances are limited, especially given that Jiangdong has been spending a lot of its finances on infrastructure projects. As for the final outcome, it depends on your choice, Secretary Ruijin."

Lin Zhiyuan didn't hold back and laid out all the advantages and disadvantages of the plan.

"I see."

Sha Ruijin nodded. He had also presided over provincial and local government work. He lacked the creativity to start from scratch, but his vision and courage when faced with a clear situation were definitely not lacking.

"However, Secretary Ruijin..."

"Both the Donghu Chemical Industrial Park and the Donghong Membrane Materials Industrial Park hold crucial positions in the two proposals. Are you sure the relevant personnel have no issues with this?"

Lin Zhiyuan turned his upper body and looked directly at the third person who was trying his best to make his presence known.

No! What does this mean?

Is there even one good person left in Jiangdong?
