A mountain is jointly managed by many dads.
The first and second stacks of Sandiequan Waterfall in Lushan Mountain belong to the Administration of Lushan Scenic Area, and the third stack belongs to the jurisdiction of haihui town in Lushan District below the mountain. Bailudong Academy at the southern foot of Wulaofeng Mountain in Lushan Mountain is one of the "Four Great Academies in China". The surface buildings of the scenic spots are managed by the Lushan Scenic Area Administration, but the administrative division of the plot is Bailu Town in Xingzi County. The Lushan Scenic Area Administration, which is fully responsible for the protection, planning and construction of 330.4 square kilometers of Lushan Mountain Scenic Area, can only manage the core scenic area of 46.6 square kilometers of Lushan Mountain for a long time, that is, the area of Guling Town on the mountain. However, the administrative division of Guling Town belongs to Lushan District at the foot of Lushan Mountain …
This is the chaotic status quo of the multi-management and multi-head management system before the establishment of Lushan City. For more than 30 years, the management system of Lushan Mountain is not smooth, which leads to the development of tourism in Lushan Mountain, and the tourism resources in Lushan Mountain cannot be planned and developed in a unified way, which seriously restricts the development of tourism in Lushan Mountain.
In 2015, Lushan’s position as the "leading tourist" in Jiangxi fell for the first time and was surpassed by the rising star Sanqingshan. According to official data, in 2015, the total fiscal revenue of Lushan Scenic Area Administration was 431 million yuan, while the total fiscal revenue of Sanqingshan Scenic Area was 461 million yuan, which was 30 million more than that of Lushan Mountain.
Since the middle and late 1980s, Jiangxi provincial government and academic circles have also realized that there are many disadvantages in the management of "one mountain for many treatments", especially after Anhui province revoked the establishment of Huangshan City in Huizhou in 1987, Jiangxi’s discussion and motion on the establishment of Lushan City have never stopped. After being put on the agenda for nearly 30 years, the dust finally settled in the spring of 2016.
On April 8, The Paper learned from the relevant government departments in Jiangxi Province that the State Council has approved the revocation of Xingzi County, the establishment of county-level Lushan City, and the transfer of Guling Town in Lushan District of Jiujiang City to the jurisdiction of Lushan City. The administrative areas of the former Xingzi County and Guling Town in Lushan District are the administrative areas of Lushan City, and the people’s government of Lushan City is located at No.45 Ziyang South Road, Nankang Town. Lushan City is directly under the jurisdiction of Jiangxi Province and hosted by Jiujiang City. No.45 Ziyang South Road, Nankang Town is the former residence of Xingzi County People’s Government.
In addition, the State Council also agreed that Lushan District of Jiujiang City should be renamed Lianxi District.
According to People’s Daily, Lu Xinshe, governor of Jiangxi Province, revealed at the Jiangxi Tourism Industry Development Conference held on April 27th that the State Council has approved the establishment of Lushan City, and with the establishment of the "city" system, it will bring new opportunities to the tourism development of Lushan Mountain. The person in charge of Jiujiang said that it will comprehensively speed up the establishment of Lushan City.
The establishment of Lushan City this time is another major adjustment of administrative divisions after 32 years.
The establishment of Lushan City means that 60% of the mountain and 35% of the scenic spots located in Xingzi County, including Bailudong Academy, Moya Stone Carving Group and other famous scenic spots, will be brought under the jurisdiction of Lushan City. At this point, the management system of Lushan Mountain has been further straightened out, and the situation of "one mountain for many treatments" will also break the ice for many years. The newly established Lushan City governs more than 80% of the mountain and tourism resources of Lushan Mountain.
Many interviewed experts believe that the establishment of Lushan City is the key to ending the situation of "one mountain and many treatments" in Lushan for many years. After the establishment of Lushan City, it will help to further expand and strengthen the tourism industry in Lushan and Jiujiang.
The establishment of Lushan City this time is another major adjustment of administrative divisions after 32 years. All the pictures in the text are from Oriental IC.
Provincial Party Committee Secretary’s High Position Promotes Lushan to Set up a City for Re-opening.
The call for Lushan to set up a city has a long history. The last round of setting up a city was put on the agenda in 2010, and this round of motion began in 2015.
According to Jiangxi Daily, from August 11th to 13th, 2015, Qiang Wei, secretary of Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee, used three days to investigate the tourism promotion in Lushan Mountain. Qiang Wei pointed out that it is necessary to plan the tourism development of Lushan Mountain as a whole, and build a "Great Lushan Mountain" with reform wisdom, so that the mountains and mountains, the mountains in the south and the mountains in the north, and the scenic spots and urban areas will develop together, and the mountains, lakes and rivers such as Lushan Mountain, Poyang Lake and Yangtze River will complement each other.
Qiang Wei repeatedly stressed that in recent years, the development of Lushan tourism industry has made great progress, but compared with the potential of resource endowment and brand reputation, there is still considerable room for development, and there is also a big gap with the advanced peers. It is necessary to deepen the reform of Lushan management system and mechanism and inject strong vitality and vitality into Lushan development; It is necessary to establish the concept of global tourism planning, comprehensively plan, systematically design and coordinate the development of "Da Lushan" tourism industry, and promote Lushan tourism to become the vanguard of the province and the most beautiful business card among the world’s famous mountains.
This special investigation is widely understood by the outside world that the work of setting up a city in Lushan will be restarted.
At that time, many people familiar with Jiujiang confirmed to the The Paper reporter that "not long ago, Jiangxi provincial leaders also went to Xingzi County for investigation and investigation." Based on this analysis, they also believe that "the’ Lushan City’ is likely to speed up again."
In August 2015, Huang Guanhua, director of the Civil Affairs Bureau of Xingzi County, said in an interview with Jiangxi New Legal News that the application for Lushan City began to be vigorously promoted, and the specific plan has not yet been decided.
The Paper reporter learned that before Qiangwei went to Jiujiang to investigate the tourism work of Lushan Mountain, the relevant departments of Jiangxi Province were already making preparations for setting up a city for Lushan Mountain.
Many government officials in Xingzi County confirmed to The Paper that before Jiangxi Provincial Party Secretary Qiang Wei went to Jiujiang City in August 2015 to investigate the tourism promotion of Lushan Mountain, the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government appointed experts from Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences to Xingzi County, Lushan Scenic Area Administration and other places to solicit opinions on the establishment of Lushan Mountain.
On April 15, 2016, an informed expert who participated in the formulation of the plan for setting up a city in Lushan revealed to The Paper, "The plan for setting up a city in Lushan was entrusted to Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences. In May 2015, Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences received the project of setting up a city in Lushan, and the process of making the plan lasted for half a year. It went to relevant counties and districts in Jiujiang City for seven or eight times, repeatedly soliciting opinions from relevant districts and counties and Jiujiang City, and finally formed a plan and reported it to the provincial party committee and government for approval, and then Jiangxi.
The above-mentioned experts said that since the 1980s, the discussion on setting up a city in Lushan Mountain has gone through six provincial party secretaries, and the management system of Lushan Mountain has not been straightened out. This time, it is also to integrate the tourism resources of Lushan Mountain and sell the brand of Lushan Mountain, so the setting up of a city in Lushan Mountain is put on the agenda again.
In addition to rationalizing the management system factors of Lushan Mountain, the central mainstream media exposed the ticket charges of Lushan Mountain for two consecutive years, which was the "fuse".
During the Golden Week of the 11th National Day in 2013, CCTV exposed the phenomenon of "ticket in the ticket" in Lushan Scenic Area. According to some netizens’ statistics, except for the entrance ticket to 180 yuan, it costs 1,396 yuan to visit other scenic spots, and the other expenses such as ropeway and sightseeing bus are as high as 1,792 yuan. The root of the phenomenon of "getting a ticket in a ticket" lies in the management system of Lushan Mountain.
After a lapse of one year, one week before the National Day, on September 23rd, 2014, People’s Daily published a letter from a reader in Xiamen, Fujian Province in the 19th edition of the reader’s letter-"It’s not right to sell tickets to visit Lushan Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall".
Two or more interviewed experts close to the government said that Lushan Mountain was exposed by the central mainstream media around the National Day Golden Week for two consecutive years, which greatly touched the main leaders of Jiangxi Province, so they made up their minds to straighten out the management system of Lushan Mountain as soon as possible.
However, Ma Zhihui, director of the Institute of Economics of Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences, told The Paper that the exposure of Lushan ticket chaos is only one of the factors, and the more crucial factor is that Jiangxi was brewing when it formulated the 13th Five-Year Plan in 2015, and Jiangxi should make great moves in tourism, build a trillion-dollar industrial club of Jiangxi tourism, and rank among the first phalanx in the country. Last year alone, Jiangxi issued opinions and policies on several strong tourist provinces.
"In the past, Jiangxi paid more attention to the development of industry and paid less attention to the development of service industry than it does now. But last year, the whole economy was under downward pressure, and the tourism industry and cultural industry paid more and more attention." Ma Zhihui said that Lushan, as the top brand of tourism in Jiangxi, has the conditions to set up a city in this background, and everyone has reached a consensus.
Many interviewed experts believe that setting up a city in Lushan is the key to ending the situation of "one mountain and many treatments" in Lushan for many years.
Compromise Scheme "Xiaolushan City"
In fact, in addition to the high promotion of the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government, Jiujiang City’s preparations for setting up a city in Lushan Mountain have also started in 2015.
According to a person familiar with the Jiujiang government, a leading group for deepening the reform of Lushan system has been set up at Jiujiang level, with Lin Binyang, mayor of Jiujiang, as the leader of the leading group, Zhan Yong, deputy secretary of Jiujiang Municipal Committee, as the first deputy leader, and the office of the leading group located in Lushan Scenic Area Administration. Yang Jian, member of the Standing Committee of Jiujiang Municipal Committee and secretary of the Party Committee of Lushan Scenic Area Administration, is the director of the leading group office.
After about half a year’s investigation on Lushan tourism by Qiangwei, new progress has finally been made in deepening the reform of Lushan management system and mechanism, and the application and preparation for establishing Lushan city are also progressing in a low-key and orderly manner.
According to Jiujiang TV’s "Live Jiujiang" report, during the two sessions of Jiujiang City in early February 2016, Zhang Wenli, director of Jiujiang Tourism Commission, said in an interview that setting up the city of Lushan Mountain was a major task in the reform of Lushan’s system and mechanism in 2016.
In an interview, Zhang Wenli also "spoiled" part of the plan for setting up the city of Lushan reported by Jiujiang Municipal Government.
Zhang Wenli said that the establishment of the city of Lushan means the withdrawal of Xingzi County and the merger with the Lushan Scenic Area Administration to establish Lushan City. The Lushan Scenic Area Administration and Xingzi County are responsible for the establishment of the city. The written application materials have been submitted to the relevant departments, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs has reported it to the State Council, which will probably be approved after the Spring Festival. After Lushan is established as a city, it will also be under the jurisdiction of Jiujiang.
This is the first time that Jiujiang officials have responded to the news that Lushan has set up a city.
A number of interviewed experts told the The Paper that the county-level Lushan City is only a "Little Lushan City" scheme, and its jurisdiction has been reduced a lot. In previous discussions, there were many plans to set up a prefecture-level "Da Lushan City" following the example of Huangshan and Zhangjiajie, but "Da Lushan City" involves a large adjustment of zoning, and its interests are difficult to balance, so it is less likely to be approved.
Not only that, at the two sessions of Jiangxi Province and the National People’s Congress in 2016, deputies to the National People’s Congress submitted relevant suggestions on accelerating the establishment of Lushan City.
At the end of January 2016, Zhang Lingfang, a representative of Jiangxi Provincial People’s Congress, submitted the "Proposal on Accelerating the pace of setting up Lushan City" during the two sessions of the province.
According to Zhang Lingfang, the Jiujiang Municipal Government has recently submitted an application to the provincial government for setting up a city in Lushan. Considering that setting up a city in Lushan involves many related parties, she suggested speeding up the adjustment of the administrative division of setting up a city in Lushan.
In Zhang Lingfang’s view, it has a long history to straighten out the management system of Lushan Mountain. If substantial progress can be made in this zoning adjustment under the impetus of the provincial party committee and government, it will not only improve the competitiveness of Jiangxi in the urban agglomeration in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, but also help to straighten out the management system of Lushan Mountain and make the tourism industry bigger and stronger.
"Lushan’s tourism resources are very rich, which are divided into mountain and mountain resources. However, due to the poor administrative system, Lushan’s tourism resources cannot be integrated." On January 28th, Zhang Lingfang said in an interview with The Paper that setting up a city in Lushan Mountain can integrate the tourism resources on the mountain and under the mountain, and keep the guests, which is very beneficial to the future development of Jiujiang tourism.
More than a month later, at the National People’s Congress, on March 9, Lu Yonglan, a representative of the National People’s Congress from Jiujiang Workers’ School in Jiangxi Province, also set up a "drum and shout" for Lushan Mountain in Jiujiang City, his hometown, and suggested that the State Council accelerate the pace of setting up a county-level Lushan City. She submitted to the Fourth Session of the 12th National People’s Congress "Suggestions on Strengthening the Policy Support for the Establishment of Lushan City".
Since the establishment of Lushan City involves the subordination of Lushan management system and the integration of resources, it also involves the adjustment of two county-level administrative divisions. Lu Yonglan pointed out that "in order to better integrate resources and maintain local social stability, it is necessary to accelerate the pace of establishing Lushan City."
Coincidentally, a month later, Lushan finally succeeded in setting up a city.
On April 8, the relevant person in charge of the Jiangxi Provincial Government said in an interview with The Paper, "We have just received a letter from the State Council approving the establishment of Lushan City in the past two days, and it is currently being approved by relevant provincial leaders and relevant offices. After completing the relevant procedures, the Jiangxi Provincial Government will form a more detailed and detailed document."
Lushan mountain is rich in tourism resources, which can be divided into mountain resources and mountain resources. However, due to the poor administrative system, Lushan mountain tourism resources cannot be integrated.
Tracing back to the idea of setting up a city in Lushan Mountain
As early as 1984, at the beginning of the establishment of Lushan Scenic Area Administration, the Jiangxi provincial government and scholars studying tourism realized the disadvantages of the system of "one mountain for many treatments".
Relevant parties have held relevant meetings and seminars for many times, trying to integrate tourism resources and change the management system of a number of dads in Lushan Mountain, and the idea of setting up a city in Lushan Mountain came into being.
In 1985, the Jiangxi provincial government sent experts to Lushan for investigation and study to improve the management system of Lushan scenic spot.
"In the spring of 1985, it took about three months to do research in Lushan Mountain, and then formed a report to Zhao Zengyi, then governor of Jiangxi Province. The general idea was Dalu Mountain, and he appreciated our report." Zhou Hanshu, former deputy director of the Propaganda Department of Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee and head of the domestic expert group on Lushan’s application for world cultural heritage, said at the "Lushan Management System Seminar" organized by the Development Research Center of Jiangxi Provincial Government in 2001.
In 1986, the Jiangxi Provincial People’s Government studied the improvement of the management system of Lushan Mountain Scenic Area at the 75th and 81st meetings of the Governor’s Office, and decided to change the current practice of entrusting Jiujiang City with the custody by the provincial people’s government and establish a streamlined county-level institution directly led by Jiujiang City People’s Government, so as to form a unified and powerful leadership over Lushan Mountain. And decided to set up an investigation team, put forward a plan and report it to the Jiangxi Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China for examination and approval.
This is regarded by the outside world as the embryonic form of Lushan’s idea of setting up a city. However, Zhou Luanshu said that it was at the time of the transition and was later put on hold.
"In the mid-1980 s, relevant government departments began to investigate and improve the management system of Lushan Mountain, but at that time, the specific idea of setting up a city in Lushan Mountain was not clearly put forward." Ma Zhihui said that the discussion of setting up a city in Lushan Mountain should be in the late 1980s.
Professor Ding Wenkui, the founder of the discipline of "Landscape Science", the expert consultant of the Ministry of Construction and the State Forestry Administration, and the first director of the Institute of Landscape Science of Tongji University, included an article in "Research on Scenic Spots" edited and published in 1988-"A Brief Introduction to the Overall Evaluation Research Method of the Development of Scenic Spots in Jiangxi Province", which mentioned the plan of "canceling the organizational system of Xingzi County, setting up a new Xinglu City, implementing the unified management of the whole mountain, with the management institution located in Xingzi County". The author of this article is Zhu Guanhai, former chief engineer of Jiangxi Urban and Rural Planning and Design Institute.
Since then, in 1996, 2000 and 2010, the idea of setting up a city in Lushan Mountain has been put on the agenda for many times, but in the end it was shelved because of problems involving demarcation, benefit distribution and streamlining institutions.
"When Lushan declared the world cultural heritage in 1996, it was proposed for the second time to solve the problem of this system, but five years passed because the declaration was in a hurry." Zhou Luanshu said at the above seminar that the establishment of Lushan City has been delayed for a long time. In essence, some interests are difficult to settle. The leading cadres and drivers on the mountain are reluctant to merge with Xingzi County because Xingzi County is an agricultural county. After the merger, the cadres and workers on the mountain are worried that their income will decrease.
In May, 1999, Jiangxi Economic Society, Jiangxi Jiangxi Cultural Research Institute and Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences Rural Economic Research Institute jointly held the "Academic Seminar on How to Play Lushan Brand in Jiangxi Tourism" in sha he, Jiujiang County. At that time, Li Guoqiang, president of Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences, Wu Jingbai, member of the Standing Committee of Jiangxi Decision-making Advisory Committee and former director of the Provincial Construction Department, Shuai Huanwen, member of the Standing Committee of Jiangxi Decision-making Advisory Committee and former Party Secretary of the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and experts and scholars attended the meeting.
"At that time, most officials and experts attending the meeting thought that it was urgent to unify the management system of Lushan Mountain, and Lushan City should be established as soon as possible, especially after Huangshan and Zhangjiajie were established, which greatly promoted the all-round development of local tourism and economy. Therefore, it was a consensus to establish Lushan City, but there were different opinions on the jurisdiction, administrative level and municipal administration location of Lushan City." Lu Hua, former dean of the School of Geography and Environment of Jiangxi Normal University, recalled to the The Paper reporter.
At that time, the Lushan Scenic Area Administration was merged with Xingzi County and Jiujiang County to form Lushan City, and the opinions of changing Lushan District into the suburb of Jiujiang City were in the majority. The plan of merging two counties and one mountain was "Zhonglushan". As for the administrative level of Lushan, some think it should be a prefecture-level city; Some advocate setting up county-level cities first and upgrading them to prefecture-level cities later, because county-level cities are easy to approve.
As for the location of the city, most people advocate that it should be located in Shahejie Town, Jiujiang County, because it is the intersection of Beijing-Kowloon Railway and Jiuwu Railway, only ten kilometers away from Jiujiang Airport, and has a broad development hinterland. Some people also advocate that it should be located in Nankang Town, Xingzi County, so as to facilitate the development of scenic spots in the south of Lushan Mountain and Poyang Lake tourism and integrate the development of "mountains, cities and lakes".
The above-mentioned seminar is only a big discussion on the establishment of Lushan city in academic circles, but it also lays the foundation for putting Lushan city on the official agenda again in 2000.
In 1999, several experts from the Decision-making Advisory Committee of Jiangxi Provincial Government jointly wrote to the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee, calling for rationalizing the management system of Lushan Mountain as soon as possible, and taking Lushan Mountain as the leader to form a tourist belt integrating famous mountains, rivers (Yangtze River), lakes (Poyang Lake) and famous cities. Focusing on playing the "Lushan Brand", Jiangxi Province has reached a consensus that a new Lushan City should be established as soon as possible, and all areas belonging to Lushan Mountain should be included in the management of the new Lushan City.
In 2000, Liu Jifu, then the mayor of Jiujiang, publicly proposed to "straighten out the management system of Lushan Mountain and set up Lushan City" in the article "Jiujiang has a bright future-Jiujiang’s cross-century modernization".
Later, in August 2001, Liu Shangyang, then secretary of Jiujiang Municipal Committee, also mentioned in his speech at the 13th plenary (enlarged) meeting of the 10th Jiangxi Provincial Committee that "the management system of Lushan Mountain should be straightened out as soon as possible and the tourism mechanism should be changed. Straightening out the system means that through the establishment of Lushan City, the scenic spots on the mountain and under the mountain will be managed in a unified way, and the current situation of the management of Lushan Scenic Area will be solved. The transformation mechanism is to set up Lushan Tourism Co., Ltd. by promoting the strategic reorganization of tourism resources and taking the market as a link. "
However, at the beginning of 2000, the discussion plan of setting up a city in Lushan Mountain was not recognized by Xingzi County.
A number of retired veteran cadres in Xingzi County confirmed to the The Paper reporter that the plan for setting up a city at that time was to set up Lushan City with the southern ring road of Lushan Mountain as the boundary, and all the roads around Lushan Mountain were under the jurisdiction of Lushan City. If this plan is implemented, villages and towns with rich tourism resources along Lushan Mountain, such as Bailu, Hot Springs and Pass in Xingzi County, will be designated as Xingzi County.
"At first, I just heard such a rumor, but later (Xingzi County Government) asked the leaders of the Civil Affairs Department of Jiangxi Province, and they said that they had discussed this matter." A retired cadre at the official level in Xingzi County revealed to The Paper that this plan is not scientific, and the opinions of Xingzi County have not been sought. Many villages in Xingzi County are surrounded by Lushan Highway and pass through the village. According to the above plan, many villages have to be artificially divided into two administrative divisions. Obviously, it is unrealistic, and the people in Xingzi County are not willing to do so. At that time, the public was angry. After hearing the news, the leaders of the four teams in Xingzi County immediately rushed to Nanchang to reflect the opinions of Xingzi County to the provincial party committee and government.
"At that time, Governor Shu Shengyou received us. At that time, he also admitted that he had this idea, but it has not yet formed a document. If you have opinions, I will consider your opinions." The above-mentioned planetesimals retired cadres said.
The reporter from The Paper learned that the plan of setting up Lushan City with the southern ring road of Lushan Mountain as the boundary was considered by Xingzi County to be a plan put forward by the Lushan Mountain Scenic Area Administration. Later, after four teams from Xingzi County went to the province to reflect their opinions, the plan of setting up Lushan City was adjusted, and the plan became "the merger of mountain counties (Lushan and Xingzi County)" to set up Lushan City.
"With the merger of Shanxian County, the Lushan Scenic Area Administration is unwilling. More than 30 people’s congress deputies, CPPCC members and relevant staff members in Lushan and Guling Town jointly wrote to the province to reflect their opposition to the merger with Xingzi County." A retired cadre at the level of Lushan Scenic Area Administration, who asked not to be named, said, "They also agreed that the Lushan system should be solved, but they didn’t think of the plan of mountain-county merger. At that time, Xingzi County was a small agricultural county and the tourism industry had not yet developed. They were worried that the merger of mountain and county would drag down the tourism development of Lushan."
A retired department-level cadre who once worked in the Lushan Scenic Area Administration revealed to the The Paper reporter that in the effort to set up a city in 2000, the Jiangxi provincial government had planned to set up Lushan City in Huanglaomen Township, Jiujiang County, but the interests of all parties were difficult to settle after a row on the mountain and under the mountain. After a while, setting up a city in Lushan was no longer the case.
Since 1985, the problem of rationalizing the management system of Lushan Mountain has been discussed for more than 30 years, and the dream of setting up Lushan City has finally come true.
Behind-the-scenes Concealment of the Failure of Chongguan in 2010
In the following years, although the relevant government departments of Jiangxi Province and Jiujiang City no longer publicly expressed their attitude of setting up a city in Lushan Mountain, the voice of academic circles about setting up a city in Lushan Mountain has not stopped.
Gan Xiaoqing, the current president of Jiujiang University, published the book "For the Tomorrow of Poyang Lake: Ecological Protection and Comprehensive Development of Poyang Lake" in 2004. In his book, he also mentioned that it is necessary to solve the contradiction between the unified planning and construction of scenic spots around Lushan Mountain and the division of administrative management system as soon as possible. "After our investigation, it is suggested that Lushan District and Xingzi County be merged to form Lushan City, and the development of tourism resources should be planned, constructed and managed in a unified way. On this basis, a tourism group enterprise based on scenic spots should be established."
Professor Min Luolang, then deputy director of the Business Administration Teaching and Research Department of the Party School of Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee, mentioned in the book "Entering WTO and Jiangxi Economic Development" in 2005 that Lushan City was set up on the basis of the Lushan Scenic Area Administration, and part of Xingzi County, Hukou County and Jiujiang County were included in the city.
In 2010, the Lushan Scenic Area Administration commissioned the School of Tourism and Urban Management of Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics to make a Strategic Plan for Tourism Development of Lushan Scenic Area.
The plan puts forward a plan of "Great Lushan City", and the administrative management of Lushan City is located at the main hall level. The specific plan is: cancel Xingzi County and set up Lushan City, which is a city with districts and districts at the main hall level. Administrative divisions include: the area under the jurisdiction of Xingzi County, the management scope of Lushan Scenic Area Administration, some towns and villages under the jurisdiction of Lushan District (Guling Town, haihui town, Weijia Town, Gutang Town, Lianhua Town and Saiyang Town), and some towns and villages under the jurisdiction of Jiujiang County (Shahejie Town, Shizi Town, Minshan Township and Mahuiling Town).
According to this plan, Nankang Town, the resident of Lushan City, consists of Xingzi District, Shahe District and Lushan District, and the Lushan Administration Bureau, Xingzi Economic and Technological Development Zone and Shahe (formerly Jiujiang) Economic and Technological Development Zone are also established. Change the Lushan Scenic Area Administration to the Lushan Administration, which is an agency of the Lushan Municipal Government, with the specification of deputy department level; The Working Committee of Lushan Administration Bureau of the Communist Party of China was established as an agency of Lushan Municipal Committee, with the specification of deputy department level. The functions and institutions of Lushan Administration and Lushan City do not overlap. The finance of Lushan administration is not only set up.
"The plan was reported to the Jiangxi provincial government, but the provincial government did not adopt this plan." An expert who participated in the formulation of the "Great Lushan Mountain" plan told the The Paper reporter that when the "Great Lushan Mountain" plan was made, it was known that the possibility of adopting this plan was very small.
In the same year, the establishment of Lushan City was once again put on the agenda by the government.
"The motion to set up a city in Lushan in 2010 was not put forward by the Lushan Scenic Area Administration, but by Jiujiang City and investigated by the Jiangxi Provincial Civil Affairs Department." An original guide from the Lushan Scenic Area Administration told a reporter in The Paper.
Recently, many officials familiar with Xingzi County told The Paper that in 2010, Jiujiang applied for the establishment of Gongqing City, and at the same time, it also packaged Xingzi County and Lushan Scenic Area Administration under its jurisdiction to apply for the establishment of Lushan City.
At that time, the idea was that Sujiadang Township and Zequan Township were allocated to gongqingcheng city, and the other two surrounding towns were allocated to Xingzi County as "compensation". However, with the failure of Lushan Mountain to "rush to the city", the idea of allocating the other two towns to Xingzi County ran aground, and Sujiadang Township and Zequan Township failed to be zoned away.
"In 2010, the plan to set up a city in Lushan was done together with the plan to set up a city in Gongqingcheng." In an interview with The Paper, Ma Zhihui, who participated in the formulation of the plan for setting up a city in Lushan in 2015, said that in 1997, the state suspended the withdrawal of counties to set up a city. At that time, the Jiangxi provincial government considered that the withdrawal of counties to set up a city had been suspended for more than ten years. Except for ethnic minority areas and Xinjiang Construction Corps, it was very difficult to declare the two plans for setting up a city together. Therefore, at that time, only the "Gongqingcheng set up a city" was reported to the State Council, and the procedures for setting up a city in Lushan were only handed over to the Jiangxi provincial government,
After waiting for five years, the establishment of Lushan City was restarted again. At the beginning of April 2016, the establishment of Lushan City was finally approved. Since 1985, the problem of rationalizing the management system of Lushan Mountain has been discussed for more than 30 years, and the dream of setting up Lushan City has finally come true.
"When I heard that Lushan was going to set up a city, I knew that the result was a failure." A Ningbo businessman who invested in tourism development in Xingzi said that he came to Xingzi to invest in 2005. Every year for 11 years, he heard the news that Lushan had set up a city, and he was a little numb, but he didn’t expect it to be true this time.
"Setting up a city in Lushan Mountain is definitely a good thing for the development of tourism in Lushan Mountain. After setting up a city, tourism in Lushan Mountain will definitely develop rapidly." The businessman said confidently.
