The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

Wang Tiezhu had a smile on his face.

If we can't merge factories this year, doesn't that mean we can do it next year?

This couldn't be better news.

Those three factories are difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, they can still survive the Spring Festival.

After all, each factory has its own land, which can be used for farming and breeding, making it self-sufficient and not starving to death.

As long as the New Year is over, Panshan Machinery Factory will take over these three factories, and some factories will be transferred to the local industrial bureau, and the Yun Provincial Defense Management Office will be able to say that it will be light and easy.

At that time, there will no longer be any factory director who calls him all day long to complain and do things badly, just to get planned quotas or funds.

He may also consider applying for retirement next year.

After all, he was content to let his successor go into battle lightly and without any burden.

"Then we'll talk about it after the Spring Festival. During this time, you should be well prepared to complete the order and prepare for the work group of the Fifth Machinery Department." Wang Tiezhu said: "You don't have to worry about aluminum alloy, titanium alloy and other materials, I will coordinate them. We will deliver the goods in a timely manner without any delays.”

Wang Tiezhu also knows that Liu Tao has a heavy burden on his shoulders now.

The top priority is to complete the order worth nearly 100 million US dollars.

This order was watched by the Fifth Machinery Department and the entire Yun Province.

Although the nearly 100 million U.S. dollars of foreign exchange will not fall on Yun Sheng, it is of great benefit to know that for such a large order, the corresponding supporting factories will be greatly stimulated.

Without the development of Panshan Machinery Factory, many units would have fallen into operating difficulties.

The spring breeze of reform and opening up has already blown in several coastal provinces such as Guangdong Province, but this spring breeze has not yet reached Yunnan Province.

Focusing on economic construction, the impact on Yun Province has been very obvious, that is, funding from the state will be significantly reduced.

In the past third-line construction, Yun Province was the rear area of ​​the southwest and was also on the border. Due to its special geographical location, Yun Province could receive nearly 2 billion in funds for third-line construction every year.

In fact, the country invested heavily in the construction of the Chengdu-Kunming Railway, which connected Yun and Shu provinces and greatly improved transportation conditions.

Liu Tao nodded slightly.

The most difficult period of Panshan Machinery Factory has passed, and what we are doing now is unfolding in an orderly manner. Although there are many things, there are no difficulties in a substantial sense.

If you need money, you will have money, and if you need people, you will have people.

Everything just takes time to get used to.

Panshan Machinery Factory is on the right path and does not require Liu Tao to worry too much. There are corresponding people to handle many things. This is also an important reason why he still has the mind to engage in research and development.

Wang Tiezhu left with the expert team and corresponding information. According to Liu Tao's convention, the number of this anti-aircraft machine gun is 'Type 78 anti-aircraft machine gun'. In fact, according to normal naming, Type 79 is more in line with the naming convention.

But he could also say that the research and development started in 1978 and was successfully developed in 1979. It is also okay to name it Type 78. Several previous firearms were named in this way.

Liu Tao restarted a production workshop specializing in the production of Type 78 anti-aircraft machine guns.

Of course, in the early stage, we start with familiarization, then trial production, and then enter small batch production.

The first group of people he called were all those who had produced Type 54 anti-aircraft machine guns before and had experience.

After this group of people become familiar with each other, some new people will be transferred to lead the new ones with the old, thereby gradually growing the production team.

Liu Tao did not rush to develop anti-aircraft guns. Instead, he served as a technical guide while repairing the machinery and equipment shipped during this period, bringing these machinery and equipment to the factory-fresh state and installing them in the corresponding production workshops.

Liu Tao is already very familiar with doing this.

This has greatly increased my skills in machine tools, and I am very familiar with all kinds of machine tools.

Like previous machine tools, this batch of machine tools have been used for decades, and there are even machine tools from the First World War.

However, after being repaired and restored to factory condition, these machine tools are still very useful.

Before you know it, it’s time to separate rooms again.

This time there will be a second batch of housing allocations.

Liu Tao looked at the second batch of housing allocation lists and signed his name on the document after feeling that there was no problem.

The second batch of housing allocations has a total of 300 units, no villas, all 120 square meters of houses.

This also means that 300 workers and cadres will be allocated houses and moved out of dormitories and tents, which will also greatly alleviate housing pressure.

Moreover, this time it was not just the second batch of housing allocations. Shopping malls, hospitals, kindergartens, primary schools, and middle schools were all completed. He had to urge them to recruit medical staff and teachers.

This time Liu Tao wanted a lot of people, 200 doctors, 500 nurses, and 290 teachers, totaling close to a thousand people.

These rely on Panshan Machinery Factory, which simply can't get so many people, so they have to rely on the Yun Provincial Defense Management Office. Fortunately, the distribution is done on a contract basis. As long as the coordination is good, it can be solved.

The announcement of the second batch of housing allocation lists immediately caused a sensation in the entire Panshan Machinery Factory. After get off work, many people ran to the nearby public notice board to see if their names were on it, without even bothering to eat.

Room allocation is something that everyone is looking forward to.

No one doesn’t like to live in a big house and a beautiful house.

And when they see their name appear on the list, everyone will be ecstatic.

Although the list will be announced for a week, and those who are allocated housing have to wait for a week, and even if someone reports it, the relevant departments will conduct an investigation. If there is no evidence, it's fine. If it is really found, the housing allocation of the reported person will be cancelled, but everyone is willing to wait and is not afraid of investigation.

The ideological work held every month, "seeking truth from facts" and "practice is the only criterion for testing truth" have been emphasized again and again, and have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and have gathered consensus. It is impossible to exaggerate as before.

This time, the housing allocation is like a dose of heart tonic and heart-stimulating agent, which makes Panshan Machinery Factory run faster and faster.

This is the benefit of a factory in a period of rapid development. Any contradictions will seem insignificant during this period, and will be covered up by rapid development instead of erupting.

Liu Tao just returned home and saw his second sister "Liu Honglei" with three children.

"Uncle~~" The three children saw Liu Tao and called sweetly.

Liu Tao smiled. Since his sister and her family arrived, the huge house seemed much more lively.

"Sister, how is your work? Are you adapting?" Liu Tao asked.

"Not bad. I can start my internship in a few days." Liu Honglei said.

Her job was relatively easy. She only served tea and water in the office every day, made sure the area she was responsible for was clean, and could leave work on time every day. It was much better than being an educated youth before.
