More than 2 billion yuan of private capital has been invested in the construction of the town. The built-up area has expanded from 0.4 square kilometers in 1997 to 5.8 square kilometers.

The environmental landscape of Bishuiwan villa area, Wenchang new area and other communities infiltrates the spirit of water into each building. Combined with the architectural form and topography, the town environment and local space are well integrated. At the beginning of 2002, Zhangguo town introduced IS014001 environmental management system into towns to standardize environmental management behavior, and passed the third-party certification in the next year, becoming the first small town in China to pass this system certification.

On June 28, 2000, Hui Liangyu, Secretary of Jiangsu provincial Party committee, made a special visit to Zhangguo Town, praising Zhang Guo for "emancipating the mind, making ten thousand taels of gold" and "thinking decides the way out and thinking decides the way out". Economists come to town for special research and think that "Zhang Guo's road" is a charming road to develop private economy, enrich the people and strengthen the town, an inspiring road to help the people get rich and start a business, and a distinctive road to rural industrialization and urbanization. This road can be called Zhang Guo's road of the rise of Central Jiangsu.

economic construction

In the mid-1990s, the economy of the whole town fell into a low ebb. Ten of the 14 town run enterprises lost money, and their profits and losses were more than 6 million yuan. Among them, eight enterprises were insolvent, reaching 50 million yuan. The town's finance was on the verge of collapse. According to the reality of his own development, Zhang Guozhen always put emancipation of the mind in the first place, and put forward "development is the hard truth, success is the true truth", "do not dispute time, discuss major events, and do not comment on the actual achievements". On the basis of taking the lead in promoting the reform of enterprise property rights system, he vigorously developed the private economy, and realized the benign interaction among the capable economy, the people's economy, and the cadre economy Development has promoted the rapid rise of regional economy. First, let go to develop the economy of capable people. At the beginning of the ninth five year plan, Zhangguo town made the best use of the situation and put forward the development strategy of "developing the town with capable economy and industry" in time, "go out, please come back". Through the "five linkage" of publicity, model driving, policy mobilization, service promotion and administrative promotion, we will try our best to create a more relaxed entrepreneurial environment and transform the advantages of doing business abroad and potential capital into the advantages of local economic development to the maximum. There are more than 1000 private enterprises in Zhangguo Town, with a total investment of more than 1.5 billion yuan, absorbing over 10000 surplus labor force and over 10000 migrant workers. Private economy has become the main economy and rich economy. Second, we should strive to expand the people's economy. "Everything is long, people-oriented". With the rapid rise of private economy, we timely propose to vigorously expand the "people's economy", try every means to guide the whole people to start businesses, fully release the people's potential, so that more farmers can go out of the fields and jump out of the countryside by developing the secondary and tertiary industries, going out for business, and working in factories, and strive to pursue industries, projects, jobs, and money for every family . At present, it is common for all people to start businesses in Zhangguo.

The number of employees in the secondary and tertiary industries of the town reached 88.2%, and the per capita net income of farmers reached 7000 yuan. A large number of farmers embarked on the road of prosperity and well-off through independent entrepreneurship, realizing career transformation, identity transformation and role transformation. Third, we should actively guide cadres' economic development. Zhang Guozhen always adheres to the guidance of "big cadres and small cadres, those who can lead the masses to get rich are good cadres" and "to discuss heroes with development and use cadres with actual achievements". He takes the initiative to push cadres at all levels to the front line of development, encourages them to take the lead in getting rich and lead the masses to get rich, actively explores enterprise oriented and market-oriented cadre management methods, and tries out the annual salary system, forming an incentive mechanism for cadres to benefit the people At present, most town and village cadres have recruited and cultivated or set up their own enterprises. The main economic indicators of the town maintained a good momentum of rapid growth. During the Tenth Five Year Plan period, the GDP of the whole town and the budget revenue increased by 2.03 times and 2.5 times respectively. In order to speed up the construction of new countryside, in 2008, they clearly put forward that GDP and fiscal revenue should be doubled in three years, and strive to take the lead in realizing an all-round well-off society in 2009.

In 2006, comprehensive coordination and scientific development were highlighted to create a new situation. First, town and village construction was promoted as a whole. Centering on the "taste, function and connotation", we will further speed up the optimization and beautification of the town, complete the demolition of Guangming Road in the town, and build Bishuiwan and Wenchang communities, with a new construction area of 50000 square meters and a green area of 80000 square meters. At the same time, we should adhere to the new "5 + 1" principle
