The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 221 Headquarters Location
Eight days passed quickly.

In addition to spending time with his family, Liu Tao also handles official business.

Visit an old friend and pick up some orders.

Then he had to leave the capital and return to the city.

The climate in Yunnan Province in May is already quite good, with daytime temperatures of about 5 or degrees and nighttime temperatures of about or degrees.

After Liu Tao arrived in Kunming, he first visited Wang Tiezhu.

Although the two are not subordinate to each other now and are on equal footing in terms of rank, Liu Tao is very grateful to Wang Tiezhu.

If Wang Tiezhu hadn't valued and promoted him, he would never have achieved what he has today.

Moreover, after he took over Panshan Machinery Factory, Wang Tiezhu helped him a lot, coordinating with supporting factories, coordinating railway transportation, and coordinating electricity and water power.

It can be said that leisure has ensured the development of Panshan Machinery Factory.

When Wang Tiezhu saw Liu Tao again, a smile appeared on his face and he stood up to greet him.

Wang Tiezhu has deep feelings for Panshan Machinery Factory. After all, Panshan Machinery Factory was built from scratch during his tenure, and he spent a full ten years in Panshan Machinery Factory.

Moreover, when he arrived at the Yunnan Provincial Defense Management Office, Panshan Machinery Factory also greatly supported his work and helped him solve many problems.

Wang Tiezhu went to Beijing to attend a discussion meeting on the issues and development of the Third Line Factories. He felt quite relaxed. No provincial defense management office in the country was as relaxed as his, and did not need to face the troubles of the Third Line Factories.

Even all the third-line factories in Yunnan Province are now profitable and developing rapidly.

In the past two years, Panshan Machinery Factory has cultivated supporting factories and allowed third-line factories to produce screws, telescopes and other parts, so that these third-line factories have developed along with the development of Panshan Machinery Factory every year.

Panshan Machinery Factory has money and pays these supporting factories regularly without any arrears.

In addition, the large-scale expansion of Panshan Machinery Factory also promoted the development of construction materials such as cement, steel, sand and gravel. Design institutes and construction teams were not short of work, which made Wang Tiezhu always feel proud when he met other people.

Moreover, whenever Liu Tao came to Kun City, he would always come to visit the old factory director.

Liu Tao and Wang Tiezhu discussed the restructuring of Panshan Machinery Factory and mentioned that after the restructuring, the headquarters of China Panshan Group Corporation will be located in Kunming.

"It would be better to place it in Kunming City as the transportation there is more convenient. Do you plan to place it in the city or somewhere else?" Wang Tiezhu asked.

"If we put it in Haikou, there is the 356 Factory. It is near the Dianchi Lake in Haikou, close to the 356 Factory, so it is convenient for us to do some things. Moreover, we are not in the civilian field after all, and are not suitable for densely populated areas, which is not conducive to confidentiality." Liu Tao has thought about this.

When Liu Tao went to 356 to check the construction progress, he also made a special trip to the surrounding area for inspection.

It is truly in the suburbs. Although the terrain is relatively flat, it is about 30 kilometers away from the city. It is a suburb within the suburbs. There are few people and a lot of land.

Liu Tao even chose the position.

Wang Tiezhu nodded. Confidentiality is the top priority of the military factory.

Once leaked, it can easily lead to serious consequences.

Confidentiality and security are two very important core issues for any military factory.

After returning to Panshan Machinery Factory, Liu Tao formally established the headquarters preparatory team.

As the leader of the preparatory group, I selected three deputy factory directors as deputy leaders. The entire preparatory group had as many as a hundred members.

Liu Tao was holding a topographic map with a red box circled on it, which covered an area of ​​10 square kilometers, or 15000 acres.

The terrain in this area is relatively flat, with an altitude of 1900 to 2000 meters, and it is full of forests and fields!

According to Liu Tao's planning ideas, China Panshan Group Corporation is located in the middle, China Southwest Ordnance Industry Group Corporation and China Southwest Industrial Group Corporation are located on both sides. They are not subordinate to each other and each has its own headquarters building, office area, research institute, and dormitory area.

Such a large piece of land also includes shopping malls and other things.

This part serves as a connection with the outside world.

Unlike the completely closed Panshan Machinery Factory, the headquarters is semi-closed. Hospitals, shopping malls, etc. are shared with people in the surrounding area.

However, the headquarters will be under semi-closed management, and no outsiders are allowed to enter.

Even the parks will be semi-enclosed parks.

After Liu Tao gave instructions to the preparatory group, he naturally handed the matter over to the preparatory group to handle, including land ownership, land acquisition and resettlement of immigrants.

Of course, this also includes design.

This kind of design naturally cannot be handed over to European and American countries, after all, it involves confidentiality.

Afterwards, Liu Tao did not put too much energy into the headquarters matter. With so many people in the preparatory group, if he had to do everything by himself, then what was the point of setting up a headquarters preparatory group.

Liu Tao focused his energy on a group of young college students, a total of one hundred people.

Liu Tao taught them how to use office software, documents, spreadsheets, and presentations.

These can greatly improve office efficiency.

For example, entering information, writing documents, etc.

Zhao Guoping was also part of this study, and this time he brought ten cadres from the combined brigade to study.

These computers were all produced by Panshan Machinery Factory itself, with a computing power of three million times per second, which is definitely the top level among personal computers.

Each of those who came to participate in the training had undergone strict political review and signed a confidentiality agreement.

After all, the computers he made were too advanced.

It is at least five or six years ahead of the personal computer market.

As for these office software, they can greatly improve office efficiency instead of having to write everything manually, which is too slow.

If we were to say who in the world knows the most about personal computers in this era, it would probably be Liu Tao.

Even people like Steve Jobs probably can't compare to Liu Tao in personal computers.

Only Liu Tao deeply understood how great a change computers would bring to the world, so much so that he later called it the third industrial revolution.

He didn't think about getting involved in the Internet at that time because it was not realistic because there were too few people who knew computers.

Not many people in the country know how to use computers.

He asked Jinlong Computer to donate a batch of computers to universities every year and cooperate with universities to develop computer-related majors in order to cultivate talents.

Only with a certain foundation can personal computers be popularized and the Internet be realized.

And this time will take at least ten years.

In the short term, it would be great if we could realize the connection between the local area network and various factories within Panshan Machinery Factory.

Liu Tao plans to spend three years on this process.

First of all, it takes about three years to train people who are proficient in computer office work and research.

Secondly, it will take about three years to build the network and the factories and headquarters.

In many cases, just because he has mastered a technology does not mean he can popularize it.

Because the popularization of technology also takes time.

This time must be waited for patiently and realized step by step, and it cannot be achieved all at once.
