"Regarding industry, we in Linzhou are not unable to develop, although we are far from having the huge advantages of our neighboring Luzhou. But with appropriate local conditions, there will inevitably be significant development..." He Zhou said thoughtfully.
Lin Anjia frowned slightly, with a subtle expression and a slight lean forward, "Do you think Longhu District is not suitable for industrial development?"
He Zhou pursed his lips and sighed inwardly, realizing that it's not just Longhu District that is unsuitable for industrial development, but the entire Linzhou as well.
In terms of resource endowment, the metal deposits in Linzhou are simply not competitive. At the very least, it lacks the abundant iron ore and bauxite resources that Luzhou possesses, which could support the development of heavy industry.
However, Linzhou also has its own unique advantages, which is its abundant forestry resources, making it the "lungs" of the entire Handong region and also the source of water nourishment for Handong. Once heavy industry is developed, environmental degradation and a decline in water quality are almost inevitable results.
Why has the manufacturing industry in developed countries generally become hollowed out?
One very important reason is the development of heavy industry, which almost inevitably brings with it a large amount of pollution.
The way developed countries solve this problem is by moving factories to other underdeveloped and developing countries and regions around the world, transferring the heavy burden of environmental pollution elsewhere.
The problem in Linzhou is that, driven by political achievements, everyone is very anxious and eager to start more industrial projects as soon as possible, preferably to support the foundation of Linzhou industry.
He Zhou remembers that in "In the Name of the People", Handong truly felt the pain and made a firm decision to pay attention to and control environmental pollution, actually after the arrival of Sha Ruijing.
At the current time, very few local leaders are aware of environmental protection, and many still adhere to the approach of polluting first and then controlling. They do not realize how much cost will be needed to make up for the short-term benefits in the future.
Of course, He Zhou would never admit that Linzhou is not suitable for industrial development, because that would be quite incorrect.
If Lin Anjia gets angry, anything could happen.
The organization has discussed and passed a resolution for him to serve as the deputy director of the Economic and Technological Development Zones. However, the process has not been completed, so no one dares to guarantee that there will be no unexpected events.
Therefore, He Zhou hurriedly explained, "Deputy, I didn't mean to say that our Linzhou, especially Longhu District, is not suitable for industrial development, but I think we should develop industries that are unique to the characteristics of Linzhou in a targeted manner..."
"Tell me more carefully," Lin Anjia said thoughtfully.
He Zhou clenched his teeth and said, "I think that the Economic and Technological Development Zones should actually focus on agriculture, using it to drive a batch of modernized industries."
He is very clear about the idea of the urban area, which is to try to move in the direction of high-end as much as possible, preferably cultivate several benchmark enterprises, and carry out a few technology companies as a public relations project to gain political achievements.
But in He Zhou's eyes, this approach is nothing more than killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.
Economic development is not something that can be achieved overnight, and it cannot be driven by supporting and nurturing just one or a few benchmark enterprises to boost the development of an entire district, or even a whole city, unless it is an extremely influential national enterprise.
However, even if such an enterprise is truly nurtured, it will eventually leave. Linzhou does not receive much benefit from this and cannot truly drive the development of Linzhou.
As for technology companies, He Zhou sneered at them. Even before he crossed over, most technology companies were concentrated in the southeast coastal areas. The technology development in inland provinces, even if combined, was not enough to compete with others. Instead of racking his brains over this, it would be better to focus on the manufacturing industry, especially consumer-oriented enterprises.
Maotai, Wuliangye, Haitian Flavour Factory, pick one at random, what is their market value, annual revenue and profit, and growth rate? How much tax revenue do they bring to the local area?
With a huge consumer market supported by over a billion people, the future of these enterprises is almost limitless. The steadily rising stock prices are the answer given by capital.
Of course, Maotai has a strong background, so it may not be replicable, but other liquor companies can still be used as a reference.
Just the sales of Lao Gan Ma alone reach billions of dollars annually, which is much greater than the contribution of most Internet companies that yearn to make their accounts a loss every year to evade taxes!
In addition, Master Kang, Uni-President, Wahaha, Nongfu Spring, and so on, all of these can also become the target of Linzhou. When other places focus on various seemingly high-end enterprises such as automobiles and their accessories, if Linzhou can focus heavily on the consumer market, it will surely reap towering trees in the future.
"For Linzhou, only by integrating industry and agriculture can we truly have the opportunity to achieve common prosperity, rather than letting the urban-rural income gap widen and making farmers the victims of the urbanization process..."
He Zhou is absolutely right, almost to the point of saying that developing real estate and heavy polluting industries are all crooked paths."
