The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 887 China Southern Power Grid!

"Comrade Liu Tao, tell me, how do you plan to integrate the Southwest Power Grid?" The leader was tempted, as the prospects for this were really bright.

As for the fact that this would make the Southwest Power Grid too large, it was not even within the consideration of the leaders.

They are all state-owned enterprises and are the same to the country.

Just like China Mobile Group and China Telecom Group, the competitive situation between the two is conducive to promoting the development of China's communications field.

Although China Mobile Group's asset scale, revenue scale and profit scale far exceed those of China Telecom Group, the higher-ups can use China Mobile Group to whip China Telecom Group, allowing China Telecom Group to constantly innovate and develop itself, and continue to grow and develop.

The same is true for China National Petroleum Corporation and China Petrochemical Corporation. In the competition between the two, China National Petroleum Corporation is far ahead, but China Petrochemical Corporation also learned from its mistakes and is moving forward courageously.

The formation of two major structures, the Southern Power Grid and the Northern Power Grid, is completely acceptable to the higher authorities.

"There are two plans. One is to re-evaluate the hydropower stations and power stations in each province, and each province will use this to invest in the new Southern Power Grid. When it makes a profit in the future, dividends will be distributed annually according to the shareholding ratio. The other plan is to evaluate the assets of the Central China Power Grid, the East China Power Grid, and the Southern Power Grid, and buy them all out." Liu Tao proposed two plans.

Both of these options are feasible.

The assets of the East China Power Grid, Central China Power Grid and Southern Power Grid are not too large and can be acquired with money.

Of course, you can also buy shares, which can save a lot of money.

When the two plans came out, the conference room was immediately in an uproar.

Because the beneficiaries of these two plans are different.

The meeting lasted for two days and finally reached a consensus.

Southwest Power Grid will re-evaluate and invest in the acquisition, and the money will be distributed among the parties.

Liu Tao was not surprised by this situation, because the local government would definitely be eager to get rid of the burden of the power grid system so that they would not need financial subsidies every year and would have a cheaper and more stable electricity supply.

After completing this task, Liu Tao did not leave Beijing because the annual National Science and Technology Awards ceremony began.

The National Science and Technology Awards Ceremony is an annual grand event in China's scientific community and attracts much attention.

One or two national high science and technology awards are awarded every year, and the winners of the national high science and technology awards every year will be famous throughout the country.

The National Highest Science and Technology Award is the highest level award among China's five national science and technology awards. It is awarded to scientific and technological workers who have made major breakthroughs in the forefront of contemporary science and technology or have made outstanding contributions to the development of science and technology, and have created huge economic or social benefits in scientific and technological innovation, transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and high-tech industrialization.

This award is a lifetime honorary award and a final award. It is the highest recognition for scientific and technological workers who have devoted their entire lives to the great cause of national rejuvenation.

By now, China has several highest awards.

The National Highest Science and Technology Award is the highest award in the field of scientific and technological research that scientific and technological workers can receive.

The Two Bombs and One Satellite Medal is specially awarded to those who have made outstanding contributions to the research of the two bombs and one satellite. Most of them gave up the glory and wealth abroad and resolutely returned to their impoverished motherland. They are like a beacon, illuminating the future of the entire nation. This award is exclusively for 23 two bombs and one satellite heroes!
The August 1st Medal is awarded every five years. It is the highest honor of the military. It is only awarded to military personnel who have made great contributions, established outstanding merits, and had a far-reaching impact on the country and the entire military in safeguarding national sovereignty, security, and development interests and promoting national defense and military modernization.

The July 5st Medal is used to honor outstanding party members, outstanding party workers and advanced grassroots party organizations across the country. The National Honorary Title Medal is awarded to recipients of national honorary titles. The names of national honorary titles are prefixed with "people", such as "People's Scientist", "People's Educator", "People's Artist", "People's Hero", etc. National honorary titles are generally awarded once every five years, on the fifth and tenth anniversary.

The Medal of the Republic is China's highest honor medal, awarded to outstanding individuals who have made great contributions and established outstanding achievements in China's national construction and defense.

The highest individual military merit is the first-class merit, and the highest individual military honor is the first-class combat hero.

The only honors Liu Tao had ever received were the "Two Bombs and One Satellite" Medal and the First-Class Combat Hero.

He probably won't have the chance to get these two honors in his lifetime.

The National Science and Technology Awards Ceremony was extremely grand. The annual awards ceremony is definitely a grand event for the scientific community.

In recent years, China has made new discoveries and breakthroughs in the field of science and technology every year. As long as you make outstanding achievements, you will definitely be rewarded.

Of course, this is also a platform for communication among the Chinese scientific community.

Normally, most people are scattered all over the world, working in different units, and it is difficult for them to see each other in a year, but here, a stage is provided.

For example, Liu Tao was communicating with Qian Xuesen at this time.

They could only meet once a year on this stage. Normally, even if Qian Xuesen went to Southwest Associated University, Liu Tao might not be in Kunming.

Liu Tao was in Kunming, and Qian Xuesen was not necessarily in Southwest Associated University.

Since Southwest Associated University got on the right track, Qian Xuesen resigned from the position of dean of the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics and retained only the title of honorary president of Southwest Associated University.

The current dean of the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics of Southwest Associated University is Wang Yongzhi, who was recommended by Qian Xuesen.

The two were communicating at this time, and it was the launch vehicle.

To be precise, it is the Long March 3C carrier rocket.

The Long March 3C carrier rocket is improved on the basis of the Long March 3B carrier rocket. Its main task is to launch payloads into geosynchronous transfer orbit. It can carry out multiple satellite launches with one rocket or launch satellites in other orbits.

The Long March 3C carrier rocket is mainly responsible for launching missions such as the Tianlian-1 satellite, Beidou navigation satellite and the Chang'e lunar probe.

The Tianlian-1 satellite is China's first geosynchronous orbit data relay satellite. It is mainly used to provide data relay and measurement and control services for the Shenzhou manned spacecraft and subsequent manned spacecraft. It also provides data relay services for China's medium and low-orbit resource satellites and measurement and control support for spacecraft launches.

Last November, the Tianlian-11 satellite was successfully launched into space using the Long March C carrier rocket at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center.

The Chang'e lunar probe is an important part of China's three-step lunar exploration project.

The three-step lunar exploration project was when the lunar exploration project was first launched and implemented, and it determined the three-step strategic plan of 'orbiting, landing, and returning'. Only by completing the three-step lunar exploration project can we be considered to have the capability of manned lunar landing.

In July 1995, the Chang'e-7 lunar probe was launched for the first time, and the carrier rocket used was the Long March C.
