Chapter 3740
In addition to inspecting the itinerary for Tiandu Industrial Zone, Shi Diwen had another event that he had to attend when he returned to Sanya this time, which was the commemorative ceremony of the construction of Shengli Fort.
More than 30 years ago, when people traveled through the journey, they first arrived here, they spent two months building the stronghold of Victory Fort on the coast of Yulin Bay, which also kicked off the beginning of the establishment of the Haihan Kingdom.
For thirty years thereafter, Victory Fortress has always been the center of power in Haihan Kingdom. All core national departments, especially the Executive Committee of the Supreme Power Organization, are located in Fort Victory.
Although there is no magnificent palace here, it is just a castle with a not-so-large area, it is an unbreakable spiritual fortress in the hearts of the people of Haihan.
Even the various currency notes issued by Hai Han were printed with the pattern of the Victory Fortress, which allowed even the Hai Han citizens who had passed through Sanya to clearly know what the Victory Fortress looked like.
In fact, the fortress built by traveling through the crowd for two months was much simpler than the Victory Fort known to the people today. It was only after several years of renovation and expansion that it gradually formed the appearance of Victory Fort today.
Since the completion of Victory Square many years ago, a ceremony will be held in the square at the beginning of June every year to commemorate the feat of travelers who built Victory Fort here.
This celebration ceremony is limited to Sanya and is not as grand as National Day. However, for the hundreds of time travelers who came here, the completion of Victory Fort is of great significance. This is the first large-scale infrastructure project they completed in this time and space, and it can be said to be the foundation of Haihan's country.
Even though the Executive Committee and some major departments have moved to Hangzhou, this special commemorative event is still held on time every year without any impact. As long as there are members of the Executive Committee in Sanya, they will definitely attend this event.
For Shi Diwen, this activity is both familiar and unfamiliar. Of course, he attended several commemorative activities in his early years. However, after Hai Han occupied Zhoushan, he rarely returned to Sanya for a long time, and there were very few opportunities to encounter this time. In fact, he had not participated in this activity for more than 20 years.
Moreover, in the past, this event was hosted by several members of the Executive Committee. Shi Diwen could just watch the ceremony next to him, but this year he returned to Sanya as a member of the Executive Committee and was the only senior executive officer present, so he naturally became the protagonist of the event.
Local people in Sanya remained enthusiastic about this commemorative event as always, and tens of thousands of people gathered in Victory Square early. In addition to participating in this traditional event, they also wanted to see this "newcomer" from the Executive Committee.
Of course, Shi Diwen is not an unknown person in Haihan. After all, he is also a well-known official, and his name is often seen in various newspapers. But he left Sanya early, and the local people were not so impressed by him. Many young people had never even seen this big man.
The more than 100 time travelers who still settled in Sanya have a divided attitude towards this activity. Some people were no longer interested in this, so they simply didn't come; the other people were invited to attend the event for the purpose of watching the excitement and showing off their presence, and wanted to see what mission Shi Diwen returned to Sanya with.
After a lively dragon and lion dance, the celebration finally came to the highlight, and Shi Diwen stepped onto the podium built in advance.
Generally speaking, at the annual celebration, the Executive Committee will announce some policies or development plans to boost people's hearts in public. The onlookers were eagerly looking forward to Shi Diwen, who hosted the celebration this year, could also bring some good news to Sanya. The onlookers were not disappointed. The first news announced by Shi Diwen was that the Executive Committee determined that Sanya will continue to maintain its position as a regional central city in the future, and implement a policy of reducing and exempting tariffs on imported and exported goods, as well as further improving the port facilities of Sanya Port and Shengli Port, expanding the port scale, and increasing the production capacity of Sanya shipyards, etc., a series of measures to consolidate the status of local trade ports, such as the implementation of a series of measures to consolidate the status of local trade ports.
Ordinary people may not understand what a "regional central city" is, but they can understand the measures to reduce taxes and burdens, support ports and shipbuilding, and there was a burst of cheers immediately.
After all, among Sanya's main industries, ports and shipbuilding are very important basic parts, and the number of related employed people is as many as tens of thousands. Other industries such as production and manufacturing, service industry, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline fishery and other industries benefit more or less from these two basic industries.
After Hai Han moved the capital to Hangzhou, the local people in Sanya will inevitably feel abandoned, and the superiority of living under the "roots of the imperial city" will disappear. Many people even believe that after the various government agencies moved from Sanya, this place will gradually decline and then become an ordinary harbor in the South China Sea.
However, these policies announced by Shi Diwen undoubtedly expose all kinds of rumors that are unfavorable to Sanya. As long as the ports and shipbuilding industries are still there, Sanya can continue to maintain a prosperous state.
These policies announced by the Executive Committee are actually closely related to the process of overseas expansion. After all, Hangzhou is too far away from its current main direction of overseas expansion. In the South China Sea, it is necessary to have a mature large trading port like Sanya to undertake the transportation of various materials from south to north.
The second news announced by Shi Diwen is also related to overseas expansion.
The Executive Committee will provide generous treatment to people who actively immigrate to designated overseas areas, including Phuket, Hambang Port, Fubo Port, Zhenhai Port, Southern New World Swan Port, Beimen Port and other new overseas colonial sites.
In addition to traditional measures such as distributing settlement fees, allocating real estate and land, and reducing personal taxes, special allowances will be issued to professionals engaged in science, education, culture and health, as well as craftsmen with skills, and these personnel will be given priority as appointments for vacant positions in local government offices.
If an immigrant who was originally not a Hai Han native can apply to the government for naturalization to become a Hai Han and enjoy naturalized treatment after the settlement reaches a certain time limit.

Although these treatments are limited to the locals in Sanya who live a rich life, there are also many people here who are not so happy. These generous treatments for moving to overseas colonies do sound very touching.
Shi Diwen then announced the third news, namely the arrangements for the Hainan Island imperial examination this year.
As in previous years, Sanya will be the venue for this imperial examination. In addition to local students on Hainan Island, students who have passed the junior selection examination from Sing Tao, Luzon and other places will also go to Sanya to participate in the subsequent advanced selection examination.
In addition, foreign students who are interested in serving Haihan for a long time have also been allowed to participate in the imperial examination for the first time this year. Those with excellent grades will have the opportunity to work in the Haihan official residence. This is undoubtedly a major benefit with far-reaching impact for foreign students who go to study in Haihan at their own expense.
