2025.12.17 本文字数：1384，阅读时长大约2分钟 作者 |一财评论员 在日前召开的中央经济工作会议上，习近平总书记强调：所有规划都要实事求是，追求实实在在、没有 水分的增长，推动高质量、可持续的发展；对于脱离实际急躁冒进、层层加码、乱铺摊子的，要严肃问 责。 应该看到，这些年驰而不息纠正形象工程、政绩工程，取得了很多成效，但尚未根治，有的地方还出现 了新变种。比如，有的地方开发区大而不当，有的地方展会论坛活动无序发展，还有"数字注水"、虚假 开工、"开票经济"等各种表现形式。 因此，追求实实在在、没有水分的增长是一项长期艰巨任务，尤其在高质量制定"十五五"规划及"十五 五"要取得良好开局的关键时期，更是如此。 过去唯GDP论英雄的理念造成了官出数字、数字出官的不良现象。有的地方在增长方面先设定指标，然 后一级压一级，压到最基层。如此而言，数字的真实性可想而知。 GDP早已不是对地方领导干部政绩考核的主要指标，当前考核更着重科学发展、高质量发展，但根深蒂 固的GDP情结仍然有着深刻影响，原因之一是这一指标更加直观、更加体现政绩。由此也就引发了"数 字注水"、虚假开工、"开票经济"等"变种"的产生。 ...
