The host said that after the start, Yan Huiqing coughed to let everyone focus.Yan Huiqing is not an ordinary person. He was a diplomat in his early years, and this situation is the least of his worries.Therefore, he said calmly: "I am Yan Huiqing, Deputy Prime Minister of the Cabinet of the Republic of China. Today, on behalf of the Cabinet of the Republic of China, I announce the completion of the second five-year plan of our country. The first five-year plan of our country was from 1924 to 1928. The first half of the year is the adjustment period for China's first five-year plan. From June 1929 to May 1929 this year is the five-year period of the second five-year plan formulated by the Chinese government. First of all, I want to say Yes, we have completed the second five-year plan satisfactorily and smoothly. These five years are five years of success and five years of great industrial development in our country. China has preliminarily established a sound industrial system."

"During the second five-year plan, the cabinet approved a total of 129 large-scale projects, and built more than 129 large-scale supporting factories around the 2170 large-scale projects. In addition to the 129 large-scale projects of the Economic and Development Commission, 331 projects were approved by provinces across the country. Key projects. And in the past five years, there were 8 new factories nationwide with an investment of less than 7000 yuan. In the second five-year plan, we not only successfully completed the original goal, but even exceeded the original plan .”

"Now I will announce the data of the second five-year plan to you in detail."

"Now we announce the specific data of the second five-year plan. Minister Fan (Fan Xudong), you come."

"Yes."

Fan Xudong, former Minister of Chemical Industry, was promoted to Minister of Industry this time.From a successful businessman to a successful government official, Fan Xudong's life is a miracle.

When mentioning the chemical industry in China, Fan Xudong cannot be avoided.

Because China's chemical industry has never been able to avoid Fan Xudong at every step from its inception to its current development.The current leading figures in China's chemical industry are either from the China National Chemical Corporation that Fan Xudong was in charge of back then, or from the students taught by Fan Xudong and the others.Because of Fan Xudong's contributions, Fan Xudong was successfully promoted to the Minister of Industry this time as a reward for his merit.Fan Xudong left the post of Minister of Chemical Industry to Li Zhuchen, a general who Fan Xudong began to follow Fan Xudong when he was in China National Chemical Corporation.He is a talent in the chemical industry with better organizational and coordination skills than Fan Xudong.

Fan Xudong is a typical technical cadre.

He is personable and elegant.Pushing the glasses on the bridge of his nose, he said: "We start with the mining industry, and we are the first to publish data on coal production. In the second five-year plan, my country built two coal plants in Baotou, and Tangyuan, Heilongjiang. The county built a coal plant, all of which are national key projects. However, these three coal plants are independently completed by Chinese technicians from the design, integration of required equipment, assembly of coal plant equipment, and final production. This shows that our country has It has the ability to independently design and build coal plants."

“我国在第二个五年计划当中,新建年产量超过500万吨的国家级煤炭厂三个,新建年产量在100万吨到500万吨的省级煤炭厂十六个,新建年产量不到100万吨的小型煤矿厂58个。五年当中新建77个煤矿厂。”

"By 1933, my country's coal production was 700 million tons. Compared with 1928 when the first five-year plan ended, my country's coal production increased by 700 million tons within five years. This year, my country's coal production has another big increase, and it is estimated that my country's coal production will reach [-] million tons this year."

"I am here to announce that my country's coal output is the largest in Asia, and has already surpassed the United Kingdom and Germany. It is second only to the United States in the world, ranking second in the world."

"Crack-pump-"

"Whoa whoa-"

At first, only Yan Huiqing applauded, and the people around followed Yan Huiqing's applause, but soon the reporters below followed suit.There are journalists from various countries here today, but China has the most journalists.Many Chinese media came to the scene.

Hearing the data announced by Fan Xudong, many people were very proud.

The output of coal is [-] million tons, which is something that China in the past would not have dared to imagine, even ten years ago.In other words, before Fan Xudong announced the coal production data, no one would believe that China's coal production could reach [-] million tons.

Because the large coal plants in China used to be controlled by foreigners.

Which were the largest coal plants in China back then?

The more famous ones are the Kailuan Coal Mine, the Fushun Coal Mine, and the Jingxing Coal Mine. They are the most famous major coal mines in China.But these coal mines are controlled by foreigners.The Kailuan Coal Mine is controlled by the British, and there was a lot of controversy over the ownership of the Kailuan Coal Mine.It even involved people like Zhou Xuexi who were like the money bags of the Beiyang Army, but in the end the Kailuan Coal Mine was still snatched by the British.Many people in the top ranks of the Beiyang Army were very dissatisfied, but facing the British, there was nothing they could do.

The Fushun Coal Mine is owned by the Japanese.

After the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese frantically exploited Fushun coal mines.Because the coal in Fushun Coal Mine is of good quality, the coal used in Japan's naval arsenal is all coal from Fushun Coal Mine.From the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Northeast local government worked very hard for the Fushun Coal Mine Plant, hoping to take back the Fushun Coal Mine Plant.But those people's efforts were in vain.

The same is true for Jingxing Coal Mine.

One of the major shareholders of Jingxing Coal Mine is Duan Qirui's younger brother, as well as relatives of other Beiyang Army bosses.But it was still bullied by Germany, and in the end it was Germany that dominated.

At that time, China's coal production was not high.And most of them are coal factories controlled by foreigners.But now, after 20 years, China's coal production has reached [-] million tons, which is already the second largest in the world, second only to the United States.More importantly, at present, China's coal plants are all China's own.

So such data is too exciting.So they couldn't help but applaud together.

"Premier Yan, it's not that I want to question this figure, but I really can't understand it. China's coal production is so high, I really doubt where it is used. China can consume so much coal Coal production?"

A British reporter stood up and expressed his doubts.

The highest coal output in British history was 2.7 million tons. In recent years, the economic situation has not been very good, and British coal output has dropped a lot.Seeing that China, which was bullied by Britain in the past, produced [-] million tons of coal, they would never believe it.Why did China increase coal production by more than [-] million tons in the past [-] or [-] years?

If coal production is really digested internally, then the industrial strength and economic strength of a country can be seen from the side.Because coal is energy, how much energy you can consume shows how far your industrial strength has reached.A country with strong industrial strength must consume a lot of energy, which cannot be faked.So British journalists are even more skeptical, can China consume so much coal with its industrial strength?

Yan Huiqing said with a smile: "Originally we were going to accept your inquiries after publishing our data. But since this reporter has voiced his doubts, I will give you a brief explanation of the general situation of coal use in our country. I Let’s use the situation in 1933 as a general explanation.”

"Our country's coal output in 1933 was 700 million tons. In 1933, our country exported 6400 million tons of coal to Japan, our country's railway and highway transportation consumed 3800 million tons of coal, and our country's iron and steel industry consumed 2400 million tons of coal. China's power plants consume 1400 million tons of coal, industrial boilers consume 1500 million tons of coal, building materials (cement, glass, ceramics, bricks) consume 3100 million tons of coal, domestic coal consumption consumes 3900 million tons, and shipping consumes 4000 million tons. In addition to these and other sporadic uses, our country can completely consume these coals. Not to mention the current coal production, with the development of our country, there will be no problem in consuming [-] million tons or [-] million tons of coal in the future."

Infrastructure is actually the most coal-consuming.

Steel, asphalt, cement, glass, ceramics, and bricks required for infrastructure construction require a lot of coal.Let’s talk about glass. With the current technology, one kilogram of glass requires almost two kilograms of coal.A house of [-] square meters to [-] square meters can weigh more than [-] kilograms even if there is less glass.Some good houses can even weigh more than [-] kilograms.That is to say, for such a house, the glass alone will consume [-] kg to [-] kg of coal.

Of course, among building materials, it is not glass that consumes the most coal, but cement.Why the real estate industry can become an economic pillar industry.

Just look at this.

The real estate industry will consume a lot of steel, cement, glass, bricks, ceramics, etc., and these industries are related to coal, other mining industries, and transportation industries.Moreover, the real estate industry will drive the furniture industry, home appliance industry, and even the automobile industry.It's a whole set of industries.

It can be seen how much GDP a real estate can drive.

In China's [-]nd Five-Year Plan, so much coal is consumed, and one of the big ones is investment in urban expansion and the development of other cities.Japan's rapid increase in coal imports is also related to this.Because China's production of building materials cannot meet domestic construction, China has imported a large amount of cement and glass from Japan in recent years.The result was a massive increase in Japanese coal imports.

There is also urban construction, which requires a lot of transportation.The current trains are all steam trains, which consume 150kg to 200kg of coal per kilometer.All this adds up to a staggering amount of coal consumed by the railways each year.

"Premier Yan, I still have great doubts about the data you released. In particular, the power plants consume 1400 million tons of coal, and the iron and steel industry consumes 2400 million tons of coal. I have the most serious doubts."

The British reporter was not forgiving.

He believes that the data released by China is very inaccurate.The power plant consumes 1400 million tons of coal, which cannot convince him.Some power plants with good equipment and good technology can generate 2000 kilowatt-hours of electricity per ton of coal. 1400 million tons of coal generate 280 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity.

Of course, the technical equipment of China's power plants must be relatively poor, but no matter how poor a ton of coal is, it should be able to generate 1500 kilowatt-hours of electricity.After all, China's power plants are also designed by foreign experts and built by importing foreign generator equipment.

Even if one ton of coal generates 1500 kilowatt-hours of electricity, 1400 million tons of coal can generate 210 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity.Even with 210 kilowatt-hours of electricity, China's power generation is shocking to the world.

How could China's power generation be so high.

Including the consumption of 2400 million tons of coal by the iron and steel industry, he did not believe it at all.The iron and steel industry consumes coal as fuel, as does coal for PCI.Even if China's iron and steel plants are relatively backward in technology, but consume 2400 million tons of coal, the output of crude steel should be 1300 million tons, or 1500 million tons.

He didn't believe it, absolutely didn't believe it.

Yan Huiqing has always been smiling, because he is a diplomat, and expression management is his forte.But I was already very angry in my heart. This little British reporter interrupted several times and didn't understand any rules.Not only do they not understand the rules, but they also question the data released by China with deep contempt.

Like, can you also have such high data in China?

Condescending, contemptuous attitude is palpable.How can Yan Huiqing be happy in his heart, so Yan Huiqing said: "This reporter, we have just reported the data now, you can rest easy. Later we will announce our steel production and our power generation. Then you will know gone."

"Minister Fan, continue."

"Yes."

Fan Xudong nodded and continued to introduce the data.

"In 1933, my country's gold output was 33.2 tons, crude copper output was 7.8 tons, aluminum ingot output was 23.4 tons, tungsten placer output was 3.6 tons, and pure tin output was 2.6 tons. The output of non-ferrous metals and some other non-ferrous metals will be announced by the Ministry of Industry one after another.”

"The following will announce my country's manganese production and steel production."

"The output of manganese and steel will be announced below. After the integration of the First Five-Year Plan and the Second Five-Year Plan, my country mined 1933 tons of manganese ore in 64."

After non-ferrous metals, there are ferrous metals.

China's mining industry already has a good foundation, but China's metallurgical industry is currently in a relatively backward state, and many are even in a primitive state.Therefore, in the Second Five-Year Plan, China imported a large amount of machinery and equipment for the metallurgical industry.
