Anhui's Two Industrial Park Has Become A "Mess" To The Textile Industry For Help!

                Anhui's two industrial concentration zones: the government invested heavily in building chicken feathers for 9 years.


The "new energy industry park" built by the Jiangnan Industrial Concentration Area Management Committee was originally designed to attract new energy industry, but now it is almost in a state of neglect.


After 9 years of being born, the two industrial concentration zones that once built the whole province and invested heavily in construction were almost forgotten, heavily indebted and deeply trapped in the plight of survival.


In February 2012, the concentration area was dealt with "downgrading". From the original "provincial and municipal co construction, mainly provincial" change to "provinces and cities co construction, mainly to the city", the main hall level units were reduced to deputy department level.


The development of Jiaxing depends on the textile industry. But since 2017, the pressure of environmental protection has increased sharply, and the textile mills have been stopped. These factories have begun to move out, and many of them have come to Chizhou.


Provincial leaders should come to investigate. This is a rare thing.


In July 6, 2019, an official of the Jiangbei industrial concentration area administrative committee of Wuhu, Anhui, told reporters that he did not go home to sleep for two days. He had been working overtime in the management committee and had been squinting for a while on the sofa.


On the afternoon of two days ago, when the reporter went to the CMC interview, the whole building did not see a few people, and they were sent out to prepare for the investigation.


160 kilometers away from Jiangbei industrial concentration area, it is located in Jiangnan Industrial Concentration Area in Chizhou City, Anhui province. It is also the province's leading concern. The staff of the secretarial bureau of the Jiangnan industrial concentration area directly told reporters that they were too busy recently to have interviews.


The governor of Anhui is here. The Anhui Daily reported this, the research time is from July 5th to July 7th. Yang Xiaoling, deputy director of the Jiangbei industrial concentration area management committee, told reporters that the governor was very careful and careful in his research. He looked at both the success and the failure. It was to find clues for the development of the two districts.


After 9 years of birth, the two concentrated areas which once built the province's strength and invested huge sums of money were almost forgotten, and few leaders came. Its development is also questioned by the outside world.


In June 15, 2019, the Xinhua News Agency "lookout" published an article entitled "how did the" national pioneer "become a" mess "? The report was written by a vice president of the Anhui branch of Xinhua news agency. According to the report, the two centralized areas were set up for the purpose of undertaking industrial transfer with high specification. The address was once fertile field granary, but it was difficult to run in the end. A large number of land and factory buildings were idle, some projects were out of commission, and liabilities were billions of dollars, which was deeply in the predicament of survival.


The visit of the governor relates to the fate of the two concentrated areas.


Jiangnan industrial concentration area was established in 2010, with a planned area of 200 square kilometers, with an initial area of 20 square kilometers. But at present, there are still lots of land and factories vacant, and many of the farmland levied earlier years are still in a state of neglect.


To undertake industrial transfer


Unlike the common development zones and high tech zones, when the 2010 was established, Jiangbei and Jiangnan industrial concentration zones were assigned special missions to undertake industrial transfer in the eastern coastal areas.


"The emergence of a local development zone and high tech Zone is mainly due to the needs of the development of the region itself, and the emergence of these two areas is mainly due to the development needs of other regions." Li Long told reporters. He has investment in Jiangnan concentration area, and maintains close ties with the CMC officials.


The production of the concentrated area is related to the plan for the demonstration zone of the Wanjiang City Belt undertaking industrial transfer approved by the State Council in 2010. It is the first strategic plan to enter the national level in the history of Anhui Province, and the biggest highlight of the plan is the high level construction of industrial concentration zones.


This plan also illustrates the background at that time: "the eastern coastal areas of China are affected by factors such as rising cost of essential factors, increasing pressure on resources and environment, and intensified competition in neighboring countries, and urgently need to accelerate economic restructuring, promote structural upgrading and promote industrial transfer."


At the beginning of its establishment, two concentrated areas were strongly supported by Anhui province. They all belong to the main hall level units. This level and mode are rare in China.


At that time, the name of Jiangbei and Jiangnan concentrated areas was "Wuma nesting industrial concentration area" and "an Chi copper industrial concentration zone", that is, the industrial concentration zones established in three cities in Wuhu, Ma'anshan, Chaohu (changed to county-level cities in July 2011) and three cities in Anqing, Chizhou and Tongling. One of the reasons for "saving the province" is to mobilize resources from all over the country.


With the strong support from the provincial authorities, the two concentrated areas set off a wave of great development. According to media reports at that time, Anhui province put forward the general requirement of "laying the foundation for one year, achieving results in three years, and developing five years".


The following officials also actively support. In October 2010, when the construction of the Jiangnan concentrated area was completed, the news of "the mayor's car was turned over by the villagers" was also noticed nationwide because of the problem of land expropriation and demolition.


According to media reports at that time, when he was a member of the Chizhou municipal Party committee, who was sacked in Huainan on 2014, when he took part in the demolition negotiations in the centralized area, he claimed that "not to be mayor, but also to flatten the town in 20 days", aroused the anger of the local villagers and overturned his car. Mei Long town is the core starting area of Jiangnan concentrated area.


Banks also sniffed business opportunities, holding money to support the development and construction of the central area. Many banks provided 20 billion credit for Jiangbei concentration area, and 10 banks provided 180 billion loan for Jiangnan concentration area.


According to the original plan, these loans are not very high. According to the official website information of the Anhui provincial government, in January 2011, when Wang Jiangsheng, deputy director of the Jiangnan concentrated area management committee and Secretary of the discipline committee, said in a briefing, to build a first-class domestic undertaking platform, only the infrastructure investment should be about 100 billion yuan according to the "nine links and one leveling" standard.


High specification built


In the past 9 years, two areas with "golden spoon born" have been playing high and high, hoping to build a high standard construction area.


In 2016, Cao Jinping, deputy secretary of the Party Working Committee of Jiangbei District, said in a media interview that although the initial planning of the concentration area was "undertaking industrial transfer", it was by no means "picking up all the dishes in the basket".


The leading industries in Jiangnan concentrated area are equipment manufacturing, electronic information and modern service industries.


In order to build a high standard "new town", the two concentration areas were also distributed in the initial infrastructure, and the 12 Lane luxury roads can be seen everywhere. However, due to the unexpected development, there are few vehicles on these roads, and no traffic lights have been installed at some crossroads.


Jiangnan concentrated area also built a large number of industrial parks ahead of schedule. In order to attract hi-tech projects, the CMC has built three major industrial parks, namely, science and technology incubation, new materials and new energy.


However, these industrial parks have not been fully occupied, and few well-known enterprises have been settled in. The new energy industry park is in a state of neglect.


Li Long recalled to reporters that when the park was built, the CMC asked them to complete the construction of office buildings. But in his view, the construction of office buildings is mainly aimed at concentrating the "face" of the district and looking at it. Later, it was also proved that office buildings were not well rented, and rental shops were standardized.


According to public information, the master plan for the two centralized areas was approved by Anhui Province in 2016, and the period before 2016 was the period of large scale demolition and construction.


This high standard construction has brought huge debts to the two concentration areas.


According to the "lookout" report, from the land acquisition and demolition to infrastructure construction, Jiangbei concentrated area has invested 12 billion yuan. Up to the end of the first quarter of 2019, there was still 4 billion 600 million yuan in the central area. The debts in the Jiangnan concentrated area are more than about eight billion yuan, which only pays 170 million yuan a year.


A report material from Jiangnan concentrated area shows that up to now, the total fiscal expenditure of the Jiangnan concentrated area is 10 billion 288 million yuan, but the standardized factory buildings and land can be redeemed and realizable assets, valued at 7 billion 580 million yuan (excluding bridges, roads and other public welfare assets), of which only 2 billion 342 million yuan (including office buildings, factories, heating, etc.) can be operated assets.


"Looking at the development process of centralized areas, we did not adhere to the idea of" rolling up one piece, recruiting one piece and becoming one ", eager to get the image and success, and invest huge funds in building road networks, factories and public rental housing according to the way of" making city ". "Input-output ratio" is low in consciousness, causing huge debt pressure. The above report material reads.


At the same time, due to the poor investment situation throughout the year, the lack of hematopoietic capacity in the two concentration areas is also faced with a lot of problems.


"In the early stage of infrastructure construction, we need to borrow and develop, and debt formation is normal. The solution is to cultivate industries and increase available financial resources. Yang Xiaoling explained to reporters, "we have worked out a resolution of ten years, and now we are advancing according to the schedule, there is no problem."


Jiangnan district management committee rejected the reporter's interview. However, the financial data released on its official website revealed part of its solution to debt - to raise debts by debt.


According to its official website information, in 2019, the revenue of "general government debt" in the Jiangnan concentrated area was 381 million 110 thousand yuan, all of which were newly issued general bond income. These new general government debt income will be used to repay the principal of the current maturity bonds.


"Holding the money of the public to make human feelings".


At the beginning of its establishment, the concentrated area was strongly supported by Anhui provincial leaders. However, at the end of 2011, it was transferred to the western provinces and fell after six years. For some local people, this change in politics has made the concentration area less supportive.


In February 2012, the concentration area was dealt with "downgrading". From the original "provincial and municipal co construction, mainly provincial" change to "provinces and cities co construction, mainly to the city", the main hall level units were reduced to deputy department level.


Yang Xiaoling explained to reporters that the demotion is to facilitate the leadership of local governments. Wuhu is the main hall level, and the centralized district is the main hall level. If Wuhu's leadership is concentrated, "this is always a bit out of order."


"In fact, it is not a demotion. The Secretary of the Wuhu Municipal Committee also serves as the first Secretary of the Party Working Committee of the District Management Committee." Yang Xiaoling explained to reporters that "market based" is also a trend, and the level of the problem is not important.


The direct effect of "demotion" on the concentration area is personnel adjustment.


At the same time, the directors of the two CMC committees changed, and the former directors of the CMC were transferred to other cities as mayor.


In addition, the staff who had been deployed from all over the country were also faced with the problem of retention. Yang Xiaoling recalled to reporters that at that time, the provincial government formulated humanized measures and wanted to go back to the original units. The place that would like to stay would help solve the problem of family reunion.


In addition to downgrading, some preferential policies promised in the province were gradually recovered.


For example, in April 2011, Anhui issued the notice on the financial system of Jiangnan industrial cluster area in Jiangnan Province, stipulating that the two centralized areas will set up a level of finance. After January 1, 2011, the newly established enterprises in the centralized area will provide the tax revenue as the income of the concentrated area, and the centralized area will also enjoy the power of economic management of the Municipal People's government.


The income of paid use fees and the income from the transfer of state-owned land use right in the newly built construction area in the centralized area can be used as the income of the government funds in the concentrated area.


This makes the newly established concentration area have great flexibility in fiscal control, but this document failed to continue and was declared invalid in 2017.


In addition, in the past 9 years, the two centralized districts have been replaced by four directors of the CMC.


The situation in the Jiangnan concentrated area is even worse. Zhang Quan, director of the second administrative committee of the government from February 2012 to November 2015, was investigated in 2016 for alleged violation of laws and regulations.


The contents of the comprehensive adjudication document and the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection were all heavily indebted when Zhang was in office. But the CMC also issued the "condolence fund" for the three consecutive years to a number of municipal units without affiliation. The total amount was millions of yuan. The Central Commission for Discipline inspection condemned it as "holding the money of the public to make human feelings".


In addition, under the guidance of Zhang Quanfa, in the case of insufficient investment in a company in Beijing, the Jiangnan concentrated area also provided huge rewards for it. At the same time, the regional construction investment company also provided false guarantee for the company to help them to defraud bank loans.


The report materials in Jiangnan concentrated area also wrote that, by the influence of Zhang Quanfa's failure, some cadres of the CMC were frustrated in their entrepreneurial enthusiasm, and the phenomenon of "throwing away the burden", "doing less work, not having trouble" and "making a monk fighting a day" were widespread. At the same time, there is also the idea of "never concern about oneself, hang on high", and the problem of "drag" and "wait" is very serious.


"In those few years, the development of concentrated areas is basically at a standstill." Li Long recalled to reporters.


More and more like development zones


The "uncompleted tail" of the two industrial concentration zones is also largely related to the relatively weak industrial base in the region.


Located in the east of Chizhou City, the mealong town is located at the junction of Tongling city. When it was not developed, it was mainly located in agriculture and was called "granary in the south of the Yangtze River". Chizhou's GDP has been in the bottom of Anhui province for many years, while melon is also a backward place in Chizhou.


Jiangbei District is located in Shenyang town, Wuhu, with relatively good industrial foundation. Wuhu's development level is second only to that of the provincial capital Hefei, with famous enterprises such as Chery automobile. However, Shen Lane town did not belong to Wuhu at first, but Chaohu. In July 2011, Chaohu was divided into Wuhu city when the prefecture level city was revoked.


Shen Xiang town is located in the fringe area of Wuhu. It is separated from the city by the river, and the traffic is inconvenient. Only one bridge can cross the river from downtown to Shenyang town. When crossing the bridge, the vehicles in the field need to pay 20 yuan.


"Site selection is no problem. According to the original plan, the two concentrated areas to undertake the industrial transfer in the field need a complete land for planning. Mei Long and Shen Lane are smooth and close to the Yangtze River waterway, so that they can plan better. Li Long analyzed to reporters.


When a centralized area is set up, it is led by the provincial government, not in the planning of the local government. After the demotion and policy decline, they will be integrated into the local development plan by local leaders.


But in this process, the original intention of "undertaking industrial transfer" in the early years was gradually forgotten. Li Long has a clear feeling that he thinks that the industrial concentration area is more and more like an ordinary development zone and a high-tech zone, which can not be misplaced.


Take Jiangnan concentrated area as an example, it has 7 industrial parks in Chizhou. According to the official website of the Chizhou municipal government, in January 2016, the Chizhou municipal government also held a special meeting to study the problem of collaborative investment in the Jiangnan concentrated area, the city development zone and the Chizhou high tech Zone.


However, according to the guidance of the Chizhou municipal government, the leading industries of the three industrial parks are not very different.


For example, the leading industries in the concentration area are equipment manufacturing, electronic information and modern service industries. The leading industries in the development zone are the electronic information industry, the high-end equipment manufacturing industry and the modern service industry. The leading industry of the high tech Zone has a "energy conservation and environmental protection".


In fact, in the competition for investment in the Development Zone, Jiangnan concentrated area does not have much advantage. Chizhou development zone is located in the urban area, and transportation and living facilities are far more convenient and mature than the centralized areas.


Chen Li, a native of mealong Town, worked in a lithium battery company in the concentrated area. She told reporters that their company was not very good at recruiting people, and some young people with knowledge and technology were unwilling to work in the countryside. After the rent expired, the lithium battery company moved away from the concentration area and went to Wuhan to develop.


Jiaxing textile saves Jiangnan


In the past 9 years, the industry transfer in the Yangtze River Delta is imperceptibly taking place when it is difficult to concentrate on the concentrated area. Enterprises in South of Jiangsu moved to northern Jiangsu, and enterprises in Zhejiang and Shanghai moved to Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi.


According to the requirements of the "Wanjiang City Belt undertaking industrial transfer demonstration zone planning", the concentrated area is to strive for the leading area of cooperation and development, deepen the division and cooperation with the Yangtze River Delta, and form a common development industrial pattern.


However, with the decline of policies, demotion and personnel changes, the concentration area led by two cities in Wuhu and Chizhou has lost the advantage of initial docking. The two concentrated areas have begun to find their own way of development.


According to the official website of Jiangbei concentrated area, in recent years, Pearl River Delta enterprises began to appear there thousands of miles away, and the three enterprises in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai did not come to many places.


"According to the design at that time, we are close to the Yangtze River Delta to undertake the industrial transfer in the Yangtze River Delta region, which is more convenient. In the process of implementation, this piece has not yet been put into force." Yang Xiaoling told reporters.


At the same time, relying on the local industrial base of Wuhu, Jiangbei concentrated area still adheres to the requirements of high specification construction and aims at high-tech industries. According to Yang Xiaoling, they set up the threshold for investment, and have rejected many chemical and textile enterprises that they want to settle in.


The Jiangnan concentrated area has finally lowered its figure, and formulated a stage plan to "live first and further develop", and began to "catch the earth's gas" to undertake the industrial transfer in the Yangtze River Delta region. The most important task is to undertake the textile industry in Jiaxing, Zhejiang. The media in Chizhou and Jiaxing often report the news of visits and exchanges between officials from different places.


In the Jiangnan concentrated area, we can see a scene of "Jiaxing textile saving the Yangtze River", and more and more Jiaxing textile mills are beginning to gather there.


A textile accessories factory owner told reporters that the textile industry turned out to be a pillar industry in Jiaxing. Jiaxing's development depends on the textile industry. But since 2017, the pressure of environmental protection has increased sharply, and the textile mills have been stopped. These factories have begun to move out, and many of them have come to Chizhou.


"When we first arrived, there was no restaurant or shop on the road. Now, one night, the roadside is full of cars, most of which are Jiaxing's cards." The boss briefed reporters.


In the concentration area, a "Jiaxing restaurant" also came into being, specializing in Jiaxing cuisine. The boss is a native of Jiaxing. He greets the guests with the most words: "what is the boss doing recently?"


Li Long also told reporters that before these Jiaxing textile mills came in, their factories were basically vacant, and now they have been rented by textile mills.


While resolving the stock plant, these textile factories also played the role of dealing with zombie enterprises. According to the above report materials, there are 9 local zombie enterprises in the Jiangnan concentrated area, some of which have been joined by textile enterprises.


However, a Jiaxing boss who came to invest expressed concern for reporters. He was worried about whether the centralized management committee had seriously thought about the development law of the textile industry.


He told reporters that the textile industry is a basic industry and can not disappear from the market. However, it is also a highly polluting industry. If the concentration area is not well planned, it will not be able to deal with the pollution problem. After 35 years, the rent will expire, and the Jiaxing textile mill, which is here, may be moving again.
