Chapter 906 Daming is not strong enough (second update, please subscribe)
Is it an immigrant ship?

Aircraft carrier?
Actually, none of this matters, what is important?
Of course, the Tibetan army is at the people's disposal. Compared with any other country, Daming has its unique advantages in this regard.

Why unique?
Because many industries in Ming Dynasty need to accept the official control of the empire.

The so-called "control" does not mean "rule", but actually relies on administrative legal means to directly intervene or control production, circulation, distribution and other links and various sectors of the economy.

From the comprehensive planning of different industries based on the overall situation of the national economy, to the support and encouragement of the government, it is "planned state capitalism" to put it bluntly.And this is also the root cause of the rapid rise of Daming Industry.

In the past ten years, from the "Company Overall Development Planning" formulated by the company's "Industrial Policy Office" to the "First Five-Year Plan" formulated and implemented by the "Imperial Economic Control Committee" and the "Second Five-Year Plan" that is currently being implemented, Daming Industry and commerce in China has developed by leaps and bounds.

According to the plan of the Imperial Economic Control Committee, after the completion of the third five-year plan, Ming Dynasty will surpass Britain and become the world's number one industrial power.

As a pillar heavy industry, the shipbuilding industry naturally needs to be controlled. From the ship type to its basic parameters, it is based on the recommendations of the Ministry of the Navy, the Ministry of Transportation and other relevant departments, and is implemented by the committee. Just like last year, the committee required all The merchant ships under construction must switch to oil-coal dual-purpose boilers, in order to reduce the use of coal and ensure fuel safety.

After all, Daming has less coal and more oil.

Normally, the Economic Control Committee was very busy with work, but after the outbreak of the war, the work of the Committee became even busier. Almost every day, the nine-story building of the Committee was brightly lit until dawn.

Although the sky has become slightly brighter, there are still many offices with lights on in the Economic and Political Commission Building.

"All factories, including workshops, must be brought under control!"

The sleeves of the shirt were casually hugged to the elbows, Yi Pingan raised his eyes and said a little excitedly.

"In Daming, there are 6251 private workshops engaged in metal processing. They have 4.75 sets of various metal processing machine tools. The number of machines is almost three times that of Nanhua Arsenal. The section chief, I think, must be included in the scope of control, through control , put them into the scope of the empire's military supplies production, um..."

After thinking about it, Yi Pingan said.

"This is mobilization. The mobilization of the empire is not just the mobilization of manpower and material resources, but also includes the mobilization of all production enterprises and suppliers in the empire!"

Since the declaration of war, all factories in Daming have been transferred to the wartime system, and the Economic and Political Commission must of course cooperate with the implementation of the wartime system and start their work. The problem.

"On the one hand, there is a sharp increase in orders, and on the other hand, the output is not enough. If we want to mobilize, we must mobilize all enterprises with production capacity, even small workshops with only one machine. I think that if these workshops are mobilized , let it join the unified production, our weapons supply can be increased by at least 30%.”

Listening to his subordinate's report, Li Shifeng rubbed his temple and said.

"Right now, there is no need for this at all. The control of thousands of workshops is a very cumbersome task that requires a lot of manpower and material resources. Moreover, as far as the current situation is concerned, the military has already captured Montevideo. , even if the war expands to the mainland of Brazil, the war will end soon. At least now there is no need to mobilize those workshops, and the production of civilian products also needs them. We can't invest all the factories in military supplies. Regardless of people's livelihood! After all, this war will not last long at all."

The section chief's answer made Yi Pingan argue loudly,
"Section Chief, even if the war is over soon, we won't need it this time, but what about the next war? We can try this first, and when the next war breaks out, we can..."

"Next time, let's talk about the next time. For us now, there are two tasks. The first is to complete the mobilization control, and the second is to complete the goals of the "Second Five-Year Plan" as scheduled. Due to the impact of the war, "Second The implementation progress of the Five-Year Plan has lagged behind by 10%. If this continues, the entire "Second Five-Year Plan" will inevitably be affected. If we fail to complete the plan as scheduled, then you and I will be criminals of the empire. In short, I still say the same thing If you complete the plan, you are a national hero, otherwise, you are a criminal!"

After Yi Pingan left the office, Li Shifeng looked at his background through the glass window and said to himself.

"What a stubborn guy!"

After finishing speaking, Li Shifeng walked to the wall chart again, staring at the annual plan wall chart, his brows knit together.
"Really, at the current speed, by the end of the year, this year's annual plan may fall behind by more than 20%. By then, we will really be criminals of the country!"

After thinking about it, Li Shifeng said again.

"We must find a way to solve these problems!"

……

War will promote industrial development, but it will also hinder industrial development. For the industry and commerce of Ming Dynasty, which is in its take-off period, the outbreak of war is like a double-edged sword. While promoting development, it also affects the original plan.

"Because a large number of machine tool companies and machine companies switched to military supplies, our supply of machines and large equipment has been reduced by 30%, which directly affects the implementation of the five-year plan,"

Although he did not adopt his subordinate's suggestion, Li Shifeng went to the director's office that morning and reported the progress of the plan one by one.

"In short, due to the problem of equipment supply, the implementation progress of many large-scale projects has been affected. Now, if this problem is not resolved, the plan will definitely be affected."

"If it doesn't work, the equipment should be imported from abroad!"

Listening to the report of his subordinates, Wang Guodong, the director of the Economic and Political Affairs Commission, thought for a while, and then said.

"There may be some additional expenses in terms of funds, but there is no way around this. After all, this is a special period!"

Then Wang Guodong asked some questions related to the production of military supplies, and at the end, he still said helplessly.

"In the final analysis, our industry is still not strong enough. The "Second Five-Year Plan" and "Third Five-Year Plan". Only after these plans are completed can we truly become the world's number one industrial power. It won't be like now, in a hurry, unable to meet the military orders!"
