百万元负债村蝶变产业强村 能人返乡苦干带来“山乡巨变”

Core Viewpoint - The transformation of Maojiacong Village from a heavily indebted and underdeveloped area to a nationally recognized civilized village is attributed to the dedicated efforts of the village leader, Cheng Gangquan, over the past 20 years [1][4]. Group 1: Background and Initial Challenges - In 2005, Maojiacong Village was known for its severe poverty, with debts exceeding 1 million yuan, lack of infrastructure, and a declining population as young people migrated for work [4][6]. - The village faced significant challenges, including inadequate transportation, poor water quality, and lack of communication, leading to a strained relationship between the village leadership and residents [4][6]. Group 2: Infrastructure Development - Cheng Gangquan returned to the village in 2005, motivated to lead improvements despite having a stable life in the city [4][6]. - The first major initiative was to construct a 9.8-kilometer cement road, which took 6 years and required over 3 million yuan in funding, achieved through persistent efforts to secure government support and community contributions [6][8]. - Following the road construction, efforts were made to address water supply issues, culminating in the successful installation of running water in every household [6][9]. Group 3: Economic Development and Industry - Recognizing the need for economic growth, Cheng Gangquan focused on developing local industries, leading to the establishment of the first enterprise, a traditional brown sugar production base, in 2016 [9][10]. - The village has since attracted multiple agricultural enterprises, resulting in the conversion of 2,430 acres of land for various agricultural and ecological projects, significantly increasing local employment opportunities [9][10]. - These initiatives have provided over 50,000 work opportunities annually, generating an additional income of over 4 million yuan for villagers [9][10]. Group 4: Leadership Philosophy - Cheng Gangquan emphasizes that rural revitalization requires practical efforts and a willingness to tackle both infrastructure and industrial challenges head-on [10].
