The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 375 Liu Ziyu's Excitement

Liu Ziyu was shocked.

You know, she comes back at least once a week.

She knows a lot about computers because she has a Kinglong computer at home, and it is a top-of-the-line model. It is said that one sells for tens of thousands of dollars in the United States.

Others can only use computers during computer classes, but Liu Ziyu can use computers frequently.

This enabled her to always stay at the top of the class in computer science courses.

She even thought she was better than the computer teacher.

Normally, when students ask the teacher questions and can’t get answers, Liu Ziyu will always help them answer them.

Even though she understood that every month when Liu Tao returned to Beijing for vacation, Liu Ziyu would ask Liu Tao questions. So far, none of the questions she asked had stumped Liu Tao.

She knew that Liu Tao's level in the mechanical industry was among the best in the world.

In her opinion, Liu Tao's computer skills were very impressive, at least far better than her teacher's.

But she knew that Liu Tao was very busy and might not have many open classes a year.

Last year, there were only four courses at Beijing Institute of Technology, all of which were held in the auditorium of Beijing Institute of Technology. As a result, not only students but also teachers went to listen to the lectures.

Liu Ziyu attended two classes. The entire auditorium was packed. All the empty seats were occupied.

Even well-known professors from Tsinghua University and Peking University went to attend his lectures.

During the communication session, those famous professors were like students asking questions of their teachers.

She had never heard that Liu Tao was recruiting graduate students.

In her opinion, Liu Tao is so busy that he has no time to supervise graduate students.

"It happened just a few months ago, at Beijing Institute of Technology." Liu Tao smiled faintly.

Now, Capital Institute of Technology has been officially renamed Capital University of Technology.

He is currently supervising two graduate students, both of whom are pursuing a master's and doctoral degree.

One is in the field of firearms and the other is in the field of artillery.

It takes eight years to complete a master's and doctoral program.

Liu Tao will not relax the requirements either, because relaxing the requirements would be irresponsible towards students.

"Brother, how many graduate students will you recruit next year?" Liu Ziyu asked.

Liu Tao rolled his eyes at Liu Ziyu, "Why are you asking so many questions? You don't know much, but this is a rare opportunity."

"Of course, if you want to study abroad that's no problem," Liu Tao said.

He has never been abroad, has no connections with any prestigious overseas universities, and has never dealt with them.

But with the power of the country, it is possible. Now the country is strengthening exchanges with Europe, the United States and Japan, and there will be places for studying abroad in various famous universities.

This is a cooperation. China only needs to pay part of the tuition fees, and the other part will be provided by these countries as low-interest loans or even interest-free loans.

Then these students have to live frugally, work part-time, and get scholarships to complete their studies.

It is not easy to study abroad in this era, and no student's family can afford the cost of studying abroad.

The tuition fees for universities in Europe and the United States are tens of thousands of dollars a year, and the living expenses are also high. No Chinese family can afford the tuition and living expenses for studying abroad.

"I won't go abroad to study. I will come to you to study for a master's and doctoral degree." Liu Ziyu said.

Liu Tao smiled and said, "If you study for a master's degree here, you will have to hide your identity and may not even go home once a year. Don't cry when the time comes."

The talents he wants to train are all top talents and will be exposed to many secrets.

Naturally, confidentiality and security work will be at a very high level.

It is normal to hide your identity and be unable to go home for years. "I won't do that. I have a good family background. I have no complaints even if I hide my identity for the rest of my life," Liu Ziyu said.

Growing up in such a family, one will learn much more than others through osmosis.

Most people of Liu Ziyu’s age may not even know about the confidentiality system.

However, Liu Ziyu knew about the confidentiality system and was exposed to it when he was very young.

Outside, if someone asked Liu Ziyu about his family, Liu Ziyu would immediately become alert and then have a prepared family background.

As for people asking Liu Tao or Liu Zhenbang for advice, Liu Ziyu would be clueless about anything.

Then call the police immediately.

"Brother, you take care of the child first. I'll ask someone to cook more rice." Liu Ziyu said.

Liu Tao nodded.

Then I played with the children. The games the children played were simple, but they were very happy.

Sit on a seesaw or swing and you can have the most genuine laughter.

You can have a lot of fun just playing in the mud.

Finally, it was time for dinner. Liu Tao asked each child to wash their hands and feet and took them to the restaurant.

There are two people cooking here, one is Liu Tao's aunt, and the other is Zhu Lin's cousin.

Because there are too many people here, one person can't handle it all.

With two relatives cooking for you, you can rest assured without having to worry about being poisoned.

Zhu Lin picked up a piece of pig's trotter and gave it to Liu Tao, saying, "Why did you come back early this time?"

"I went to inspect the Beijing-Kowloon Railway and came back on the Fuxing EMU." Liu Tao said with a smile.

In fact, he should have come back in three days, so returning to Beijing now is considered early.

"I heard that the Beijing-Kowloon Railway will be opened soon?" Liu Hongying was curious. "The news reported that this is a century-old project that the country is currently carrying out."

China now has two century-old projects, one is the Shenyang-Haikou Expressway and the other is the Beijing-Kowloon Railway.

The total investment of Shenhai Expressway is 30 billion RMB, with 500,000 construction workers.

The total investment in the Beijing-Kowloon Railway is 70 billion yuan, with over one million construction workers.

"A part of the line will be open to traffic next year, and the whole line will be open to traffic in 1987. This time the state has invested billion yuan in the construction of the 'Beijing-Kowloon Railway' and millions of people have been put into its construction," said Liu Tao.

Next year, a 'Fuxing' EMU will be put into service again on the 'Beijing-Kowloon Railway', with a portion of the line open for trial operation.

The time nodes in the entire schedule are clearly arranged. For a project like this, even if there is a delay, it will not be delayed for more than a few days.

Everyone only thinks about completing it ahead of time, not delaying it.

"Oh my goodness, it's really an investment of 70 billion RMB!" Liu Hongying exclaimed.

She had watched the news, but Liu Tao could definitely not be wrong in saying this.

70 billion RMB is an absolutely unimaginable amount of money for China.

After all, the country's annual fiscal revenue is only 1400 billion yuan, which means that the country's annual fiscal revenue is only enough to build two "Beijing-Kowloon Railways".

It can be seen from this that the total investment of 700 billion yuan in the "Beijing-Kowloon Railway" is so shocking that it is not an exaggeration to call it the "project of the century".

Zhu Lin and others were greatly shocked when they heard this. They didn't know the specific details, but it did not stop them from feeling shocked and excited.

Liu Tao briefly introduced the "Beijing-Kowloon Railway". He had not told them much about the "Beijing-Kowloon Railway" before.
