The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

Liu Tao looked embarrassed.

It's not that he doesn't want to help.

In fact, there are hundreds of these third-tier military factories, distributed in the three provinces of Sichuan, Guizhou and Guangxi, and they are all in hidden places, often far away from cities.

More than 200,000 people, including family members, are one million people.

Panshan Machinery Factory was completely helpless.

With the updating of machinery, flow operations, and worker skills training, production efficiency has been greatly improved, and there is actually no need for so many workers.

There are hundreds of military factories, and their daily output is barely comparable to the current Panshan Machinery Factory.

Not to mention, the production capacity of Panshan Machinery Factory is still in a rapid climbing stage.

When these factories are completed, Panshan Machinery Factory itself will be able to produce millions of Type 78 pistols, millions of Type 78 pistols, more than 100,000 Type 78 general-purpose machine guns, more than 100,000 heavy machine guns, and more than 100,000 Type 78 general-purpose machine guns. Thousands of heavy sniper rifles and tens of thousands of anti-aircraft machine guns.

As for the output of bullets and cannonballs, it is even more amazing.

It is no exaggeration to say that the output of bullets and artillery shells can catch up with the sum of other military factories.

Although there are many third-tier factories, the production capacity of many third-tier factories is not high. The production capacity of those hundreds of military factories will most likely be inferior to that of the current Panshan Machinery Factory.

This means that if these military factories are merged, there will be no need for these military factories to produce weapons and ammunition at all.

But judging from the leadership, these military factories must be handed over to Panshan Machinery Factory.

Liu Tao frowned. This meant that he had to open up business in the civilian field and build new factories to produce civilian industrial products to feed so many people.

Regardless of the more than 200,000 people, the average monthly salary for each person may be thirty or forty yuan, but it cannot withstand the large number of people. When there are more people, they will only be paid according to this salary level, which means they will get 60 to 80 million yuan a month. , even if the salary alone is hundreds of millions, it is not impossible.

This is definitely a huge burden.

"In the past, when your Panshan Machinery Factory received other third-tier factories, didn't you accept them in batches? Now you can also accept them in batches, and it will take a few years to take over these third-tier military factories." The leader said slowly, "If we don't have the ability, we It goes without saying that if you have the ability, you must take it on, and we Communists must dare to take responsibility.”

The other leaders all looked in agreement and looked at Liu Tao.

Liu Tao's scalp couldn't help but feel numb. This didn't give him any way out.

"Leader, if that's the case, our Panshan Machinery Factory can take on this responsibility, but I also have conditions, and I hope the leader can agree." Liu Tao said bravely.

The leader said: "Let's talk about it. As long as it doesn't go too far, the ministry will definitely support you."

As long as Panshan Machinery Factory takes over these third-tier military factories, the burden on the Fifth Machinery Department will be reduced by at least half, and it will have more funds and energy to deal with other third-tier military factories and large military factories.

"First of all, our Panshan Machinery Factory will develop business in the civilian field. We need to adjust the organizational structure, such as learning from advanced foreign experience, forming a group, and dividing it into military business and civilian business." Liu Tao kept writing in his notebook, and then said .

These were originally some of his thoughts and plans about Panshan Machinery Factory, but the time was not ripe before and he did not put it forward.

"This will involve personnel adjustments, including the establishment of the group, which requires strong support from the leaders, as well as coordination and communication with other ministries and commissions in terms of sales in the civilian field." Liu Tao said.

At this time, one system is distinct from another, and each has its own business.

"On this point, we agree in principle, and other ministries and commissions will be coordinated and communicated by the ministry." The leader said solemnly: "If you have any difficulties, you can tell them."

All state-owned factories originally implemented a factory director responsibility system.

The factory director is also a senior party official and has great say.

The superiors will only be in charge of the factory director. As for internal personnel, it is more the factory director who makes the appointments and then files them with the superiors.

"Secondly, Panshan Machinery Factory will build two production bases in Sichuan, Guizhou and Guangxi provinces, one for the weapons industry and one for the civilian sector. The land required for the production bases requires coordination from the ministry, and the construction also requires coordination. All provinces will help." Liu Tao said, "The last thing is that after the college entrance examination is resumed, the first college students will graduate. Please ask the ministry to assign some college students to our Panshan Machinery Factory."

The first batch of college students, college students, will graduate next year, while undergraduate students will graduate the year after that.

As the first batch of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination, these people are very popular.

Liu Tao naturally hopes that Panshan Machinery Factory can allocate more college students.

These college students are easy to train and become talents. After a few years of training, they can become technical and management backbones.

"Your Panshan Machinery Factory will make a list of the various majors and the corresponding number of people it needs, and submit an application report to the ministry. In principle, we will support you." The leader nodded slightly.

These conditions are not excessive.

Panshan Machinery Factory is a reform pilot, so these are still allowed.

Liu Tao seemed to remember something and patted his head: "Leader, there is another condition. We want to send some people to Xiangjiang, Europe and the United States every year to study, broaden their horizons, increase their knowledge, and learn some modern enterprise concepts."

"Well." The leader hesitated for a moment: "Comrade Liu Tao, this is not a trivial matter. If someone goes out and runs away unwilling to come back, you, the factory director, will be held responsible."

"Leader, it's going to rain and my mother wants to get married. If you don't want to work with us for the rejuvenation of China and don't want to come back and run away, then let him go!" Liu Tao's eyes were full of determination: "Everything will happen. There are advantages and disadvantages, and you can’t not do it just because of the disadvantages.”

The leader pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, the organization agrees in principle."

If you want a horse to run, you have to feed it.

The leaders agreed to these conditions which were not excessive.

After the meeting, Liu Tao came to Wang Baoguo's office and couldn't help complaining: "Boss, why don't you give me a break in advance and help me say something?"

"The leaders have said that those who are capable will work harder. I am optimistic about you!" Wang Baoguo laughed, with a smile on his face.

What Liu Tao didn't know was that it was he who proposed this matter.

The Fifth Machinery Department has to deal with so many things. It can be said that even if the Fifth Machinery Department has money now, it is still beyond its capabilities.

Originally, various ministries and commissions communicated and coordinated and planned to transfer these third-tier factories to the local industrial bureaus. However, after investigation, they found that the situation was much more serious than they initially expected.

If it is directly and crudely assigned to the local industrial bureau, it will put a huge burden on the local industrial bureau and put a lot of pressure on the local government.

And for these third-tier military factories, I am afraid that many of them will eventually become unable to operate and go bankrupt.

Although the word "bankruptcy" is taboo in this era, state-owned factories are iron rice bowls, and the state will not ignore them. So far, no state-owned factory has gone bankrupt. When it comes to bankruptcy, everyone only stays in Western capital countries, which is a very evil thing. Only capitalists will cause it.
