Paihu Lake, located in the western suburb of Xiantao City, Hubei Province, is a provincial wetland nature reserve, which is rich in paddlefish. Due to the superior geographical and ecological environment, the once quiet here is being broken under the temptation of interests.
A few days ago, an insider revealed that Bao Si Group, a daily chemical giant, quietly built a golf course in the name of eco-tourism development zone in Paihu Wetland. This project has been banned by the state. National Business Daily (Weibo) reporter rushed to Xiantao to find out? Paihu is building golf? It's already open to the locals. Secret? , the relevant functional departments said? Not clear? The enterprises involved are even more silent.
Golf course fog
More than ten kilometers west of Xiantao City, there is a huge lake, which is connected with Hanshui River by a long river. This is Paihu Lake. According to historical records, the original water surface of Paihu Lake is 1 10 square kilometers. After vicissitudes of life, only the water surface is about 13. 5 square kilometers.
165438+ 10 15, under the guidance of local people, after walking through a dusty road under construction, the reporter of China Business Daily finally found the Paihu eco-tourism scenic spot. Across a river more than ten meters wide, the reporter saw that in the rather dense forest gap, workers passed by from time to time in the construction site near Paihu Lake.
At the bridge head of the only bridge leading to the construction site, two male workers are arranged to be on duty day and night, mainly responsible for? Stop all outsiders from entering the construction site? . When asked by a reporter whether there is a golf course under construction, one of them immediately replied:? This is not a golf course, but an eco-tourism area. ? After many times of communication, the reporter was finally not allowed to enter the construction site. Our boss told us that people outside can't go in? .
Although the above-mentioned staff categorically denied that the high court was being built at the construction site, but? Paihu is building golf? Has it been made public in Xiantao? Secret? . Many villagers living around Paihu Lake told the National Business Daily reporter:? I've always heard that Paihu will build golf and hotels. I've been talking for years, but I haven't done it yet ? Not only that, but also a large part of people in Xiantao said, is golf being built over there? .
What the local people say is not groundless. Chutian Metropolis Daily, a local newspaper with a large circulation in Hubei, published a signed article on March 7, 2009, saying that Xiantao Paihu Lake will develop international resorts including golf courses.
Almost at the same time, Xiantao Daily, the organ newspaper of Xiantao Municipal Committee, reported that on February 28th, 2009, at the report meeting of the work achievement of Paihu International Holiday Project, experts from the international team of Paihu Project focused on the work progress and project construction concept in market positioning, planning and design, key points of golf course design, project implementation plan, ecological protection, etc. .

I wonder what it is doing. ,? There is no specific provision for the project content in the land transfer contract? Knowing the situation, he said?

? Bao Si department? be in the background
As one of the few provincial wetland nature reserves in Hubei Province, the protection and development of Paihu Lake has been concerned by all parties. According to the data, as early as June 5438+065438+ 10, 2004, WWF and Hubei Forestry Bureau included the project "Paihu Wetland Protection Community Management Plan" funded by Xiantao Forestry Bureau, focusing on the resource investigation and species protection of Paihu Wetland Nature Reserve, as well as the construction of small facilities for wetland protection and management.
But a year later, it was reported that Paihu Lake would be developed into an eco-tourism scenic spot with a golf course, integrating eco-tourism, leisure and holiday industries. The driving force behind it is called. Xiantao's largest taxpayer? Bao Si Group.
The reporter of National Business Daily found in the article "Preliminary Study on Diversity of Winter Bird Resources in Hubei Paihu Wetland Nature Reserve" on the website of Xiantao Environmental Protection Bureau that as early as the beginning of 2005, Xiantao Wanju Investment Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Xiantao Wanju), a subsidiary of Bao Si Group, signed the Framework Agreement on Paihu Development with the Xiantao Municipal People's Government. According to the agreement, Xiantao Wanju will invest more than 300 million yuan to develop Paihu Lake into an eco-tourism scenic spot integrating eco-tourism and leisure vacation within 10 year. According to the original plan, Paihu Scenic Area will build a tourist activity center, a healthy tourist area, a wetland park and a leisure resort, including villas, resorts and conference centers.
This fact is also well recorded on the websites of Xiantao Archives and Archives Bureau.
? Perhaps because of financial problems, the actual progress of Paihu Scenic Area is not very fast, and Xiantao has also looked for Bao Si Group many times. ? An insider who has been observing the project for a long time told reporters. According to public media reports, during the five years after signing the contract, the main leaders of Xiantao Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government communicated with Liang Liangsheng, Chairman of Bao Si Group, on the development of Paihu for many times.
In May this year, the situation changed. Xiantao City Land and Resources Bureau made it public? Land transaction information? It shows that on May 3, 20165438, a company named Xiantao Paihu Development Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Xiantao Paihu) suddenly purchased the plot of Paihu Scenic Area 17. What is the land use? Business attire? .
On the website of Hubei Administration for Industry and Commerce, the reporter of China Business Daily inquired the following information: the registered capital of Xiantao Paihu Lake is 20 million yuan, and the legal representative is Hong Yuanping. Its main business scope is real estate development investment business, tourism development investment business, commercial development investment business, comprehensive development investment business of agriculture and forestry, aquaculture and processing business, transportation business, market development business, docks, ports, hotels, restaurants and entertainment services.
? This company also belongs to Bao Si Group. ? According to the above-mentioned local insiders in Xiantao, Hong Yuanping, the former party secretary of Ganhe Sub-district Office in Xiantao City, was hired by Bao Si Group with a high salary after his resignation as the president of Xiantao Wanju Investment Co., Ltd.
The main business has become real estate?
In the environmental impact report (table) published by the Environmental Impact Assessment Department of Hubei Provincial Environmental Protection Department, the following introduction is made to the Xiantao Paihu International Holiday Living Area project: This project? The construction of reception service center mainly includes original ecological boutique hotels and clubs, five-star conference hotels and clubs, health centers, ecological holiday houses and holiday center towns. .
As a giant in the daily chemical industry, Bao Si Group has chosen the lucrative real estate industry as its development direction. In fact, gradually diluting the contribution of the main business and entering the real estate industry in an all-round way appeared as early as when Bao Si entered San Maia.
On February 24, 2007, 65438+, C-BOL Group took 6. At the price of 2.6 billion yuan, he took over the equity of Xiantao Wool Group 100% from Xiantao and became the actual controller of Hubei Maiya. At the press conference at the end of that year, Liang Liangsheng, chairman of Sibao Group, also said that he would inject the high-quality assets of Sibao Group into ST Maiya to become bigger and stronger. Up to now, three years have passed ahead of schedule, but we haven't seen any substantial achievements of Bao Si Group. ST Maia, whose main business is wool textile industry, announced on April 20 16 that it would make full use of the land resources owned by the company and set foot in real estate development and sales-related businesses at an appropriate time to expand new profit growth points for the company.
Regarding whether there is a golf course project in the development of Paihu Scenic Area led by the Group, the reporter of the National Business Daily contacted Director ST Maiya and Mr. Xiong, Minister of Media Department of Wuhan Headquarters of the Group. However, as of press time, the other party did not give a clear reply.
Li Jingyan, deputy director of Xiantao Land and Resources Bureau, made it clear to reporters that Paihu Lake is a wetland nature reserve. If golf and villas are really being built, it must be illegal? .
