Beiyang reactionaries

I found that there was no problem, so I continued: "The next thing I want to talk about is the output of agricultural machinery in our country. During the Second Five-Year Plan, the Economic and Development Commission focused on the construction of Shenyang Agricultural Machinery No. 1933 Factory, Shenyang Agricultural Machinery No. Agricultural Machinery Factory No. 3.1. In 2.2, my country’s tractor output was 0.6 units. Shenyang Tractor Factory, that is, Shenyang Agricultural Machinery No. 0.3 Factory’s tractor output was [-] units. It's [-] vehicles."

"In 1933, the output of my country's seeders was 8700. The output of the Second Shenyang Agricultural Machinery Factory was 5600, the output of the Second Xi'an Agricultural Machinery Factory was 2600, and the output of the Wuchang Tractor Factory was 500."

"In 1933, the output of my country's combine harvesters was 7200. The output of the Shenyang Agricultural Machinery No. 4400 Factory was 2600, the output of the Xi'an Agricultural Machinery No. 200 Factory was [-], and the output of the Wuchang Tractor Factory was [-]. tower."

"In addition to the production of tractors, seeders, and combine harvesters, my country's agricultural machinery factories also produce a small amount of bulldozers and excavators, but the output is limited. In 1933, Shenyang Agricultural Machinery No. 740 Factory and Xi'an Agricultural Machinery No. 580 Factory produced a total of [-] bulldozers. , [-] excavators."

"During the Second Five-Year Plan period, my country integrated the original machine tool factories and expanded them into five major machine tool factories: Beijing Machine Tool Factory, Shanghai Machine Tool Factory, Tianjin Machine Tool Factory, Wuchang Machine Tool Factory, and Chongqing Machine Tool Factory. Moreover, machinery and equipment were imported from Europe and America, and Xi'an Machine Tool Factory was built. Factory, Taiyuan Machine Tool Factory, Shenyang Machine Tool Factory.”

"In 1933, the number of machine tools in my country was 17.2, and the production volume was 2.7."

Fan Xudong only briefly mentioned the matter of the machine tool, and did not introduce it in detail like the previous industrial data.In fact, during the Second Five-Year Plan, the Ministry of Industry attached great importance to the machine tool industry.Because with the development of China's domestic equipment manufacturing industry and machinery industry, the demand for machine tools is astonishing.In the past few years, China has imported more than [-] machine tools of various types from Europe, America and Japan every year to meet domestic needs.Therefore, the machine tool industry is the top priority in the Second Five-Year Plan.The Ministry of Industry merged the formerly scattered machine tool factories across the country and established five major machine tool factories.

In order to gather strength, the original machine tool factories, machinery and equipment, and technical personnel were all merged into the newly established machine tool factories.With one order, even if many machine tool factories are unwilling, they can only agree.However, their assets are valued and incorporated into the shares of the new factory.In this way, the five major machine tool factories are typical government-business joint ventures.

Same as before.

Although the Ministry of Heavy Industry is a major shareholder, it is not a major shareholder with absolute advantages.The construction, management, production, and sales of factories are all handed over to businessmen.The Ministry of Heavy Industry guides production direction and conducts financial supervision.

Like Shanghai, there were more than a dozen small and medium-sized machine tool factories.However, in order to take advantage of the scale, they were all merged into the Shanghai Machine Tool Factory, and Hu Juewen served as the general manager of the Shanghai Machine Tool Factory.Shanghai Machine Tool Factory has also become the largest machine tool factory in China, with a yearly production capacity of 8000 machine tools.

It not only integrates domestic machine tool strength, but also imports a large number of machine production equipment from the United States and Germany.

Focus on building Xi'an Machine Tool Factory, Taiyuan Machine Tool Factory, and Shenyang Machine Tool Factory.So far, China has already had eight large machine tool factories, but these machine tool factories have added a lot of new equipment.Moreover, skilled workers who produce machine tools are not capable of acting as workers on simple assembly lines.

Lack of a large number of senior technicians.

Although China has built a large number of technical schools and trained a large number of technicians in recent years, the training of senior technicians is still relatively slow.It is not very difficult to train some simple assembly line workers, and they can get started after a few months of training.However, some machinery factories need skilled workers with real skills. These people need to be trained for several years instead of a few months.The technical school trains such workers, but after leaving the technical school, these workers still need to practice for a few years before they can gain enough experience and be able to work independently.As for senior technicians, it is impossible without more than ten years of training.What China lacks now is the talents in this field.

Let's say welders.

If it is something simple, such as some daily things, then there is no technical content, and you can become a welder after a short study period.However, in some important fields, such as the shipbuilding industry, the requirements for welders are very high.It's not that you can work as a welder in a factory just because you know how to weld casually.Those welders needed by the shipbuilding industry can only be employed with excellent skills.Such welders cannot be trained in one or two years.Unless they are very talented, what such a welder needs is years of accumulated experience.

Many factories in China have been built, but the output cannot increase, which is the reason.

The same is true for the machine tool industry.

The eight major machine tool factories in China, if the output is designed according to the design, the annual output can reach more than 1933 units.But the current situation is that China's machine tool output in 2.7 was only [-] units, which was less than half of the designed output.

But in any case, China's machine tool production has already made a qualitative leap.The plan of the Ministry of Industry is that until 1940, the number of domestic machine tools must reach 60.

At present, the number of machine tools in China is less than 20, that is to say, for China to manufacture in six years, plus imports, a total of more than 40 machine tools.All imports are too expensive, so the Ministry of Industry has high hopes for domestic machine tool companies.It is hoped that they will produce at least 20 or more machine tools in the next six years.

"I have already released the basic industrial data of our country. More detailed data will be released by other departments later. Premier Yan, I am done here."

Fan Xudong revealed all the important industrial output data.In fact, among the industries of this era, there is one industry that occupies a large share.That is the military industry.

In many countries, military spending accounts for a very large proportion of fiscal revenue.The proportion of China's military expenditure and fiscal revenue in these years is also about 30%.

However, the military industry is classified as confidential data, so it was not revealed.

"it is good."

Yan Huiqing nodded.

Looking at the man below, he said: "The data of the Ministry of Industry has been released. If you reporters are still interested in knowing more accurate data, you can go to various departments of the cabinet to ask yourself. The Prime Minister has ordered that for the industrial data in 1933, all reporters are completely Open. Therefore, various departments will not hide those data. As long as the reporters use formal channels and contact these departments in advance, they will definitely entertain you. Of course, if you want to visit various factories, you can also contact the propaganda department. You can also contact those factories by yourself, there is no problem. As long as your procedures are legal, the cabinet will support it. Because all the data released this time were announced after our cabinet conducted statistics. During the statistical process, due to various For various reasons, there may be some small errors in the data, but there is no exaggeration or concealment in the big aspects. As the deputy prime minister of the cabinet and the deputy director of the Economic and Development Commission, I am here to give you a guarantee. Next , we will announce the results of the Second Five-Year Plan in terms of transportation construction. Member Yu, tell me.”

"it is good."

Yu Youren nodded.

Then he moved Mike to his side and began to say: "Transportation is the foundation of a country's development. The Prime Minister often said 'to develop, build roads first', which is the role of transportation. In the Second Five-Year Plan, the Ministry of Communications planned six railways, And continue to lay Shanghai-Kunming Railway and Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway. I will explain them one by one here.”

"The Jingtong Railway from Beijing to Tongliao started in July 1929 and opened to traffic in September 7. However, because there are other supporting projects that need to be improved, it has not yet been fully delivered. It will not be delivered until February 1933. It was officially delivered and put into operation. The Beijing-Tongtong Railway is 9 kilometers long, and it is the second main railway line connecting the inside and outside of the customs besides the Beijing-Harbin Railway.”

"The Baotou-Lanzhou Baolan Railway started construction in April 1930 and was officially opened to traffic in May 4. It will be officially delivered in October 1934 this year. The total length of the Baolan Railway is 5 kilometers. Because it connects Inner Mongolia and Gansu , and because of the connection of the Beijing-Baotou Railway, the connection between North China and Northwest China has been enhanced.”

"The Taiyuan-Jiaozuo Taijiao Railway started construction in May 1930, opened to traffic in July 5, and was officially put into use in January this year. The total length of the Taiyuan-Jiaozuo Railway is 1933 kilometers, and it is an important freight channel for coal in Shanxi. to the southern provinces and eastern coastal provinces."

"The Lanzhou-Qingdao Railway from Lanzhou to Xining started construction in June 1930, opened to traffic in August 6, and was officially put into use in February 1931. The Lanzhou-Qingdao Railway is 8 kilometers long and is the first railway to enter Qinghai."

"The Ying-Xiamen Railway from Yingtan, Jiangxi to Xiamen, Fujian, started construction in September 1929, opened to traffic in April 9, and was officially delivered in September 1932. The Ying-Xia Railway is 4 kilometers long and is the most important railway in southeastern provinces."

"The largest railway project in the Second Five-Year Plan is the Beijing-Kowloon Railway from Beijing to Jiujiang, Jiangxi. Construction started in July 1929. In May 7, the track laying of the entire line was completed, and the northern section of Hubei was opened to traffic. However, the Jiujiang Yangtze River Bridge was not fully completed. , so the Beijing-Kowloon Railway was not able to be completed. The Beijing-Kowloon Railway has a total length of 1934 kilometers, and it is another railway line that runs through the north and south besides the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway.”

"On behalf of the Ministry of Communications, I announce that the six railways planned in the Second Five-Year Plan have been successfully completed."

Of the six railways planned at the beginning, except for the Beijing-Kowloon Railway, which has not been completed because the Jiujiang Yangtze River Bridge is too difficult to build, the other railways have been successfully completed.

Yu Youren is very proud of being a cabinet member in charge of the Ministry of Communications.

"In addition to the six railways planned in the Second Five-Year Plan, the Ministry of Communications continued to lay the original Shanghai-Kunming Railway and the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway during the Second Five-Year Plan. The Shanghai-Kunming Railway has a total length of 1933 kilometers, and it is another important railway line connecting east and west besides the Longhai Railway in my country."

"The Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway was laid to Urumqi in October 1932, and the section from Lanzhou to Urumqi was officially opened to traffic in January 10. As an extension of the Longhai Railway, the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway opened to Urumqi, which is the first railway in Xinjiang and the mainland. "

"During the Second Five-Year Plan period, the Ministry of Communications personally invested and laid 5200 kilometers of railways, local governments laid 970 kilometers of local railways, mining companies laid 680 kilometers of railways for the transportation of minerals, and private funds invested in the construction of 440 kilometers of railways. The entire Second Five-Year Plan During this period, my country has laid more than 7000 kilometers of railways.”

Big investment, big construction.

Mainly these infrastructure projects.Urban expansion, railway construction, and road construction are the most able to stimulate the economy.Because infrastructure projects cost the most.

"Everyone, the data to be released by the cabinet today has been released. If you have any questions, you can ask them now."

?

"How was the response?"

"It's very big. All major newspapers in Europe, America and Japan have reposted news from our country."

On June 1934, 6, the Chinese government released such detailed industrial data for the first time.The result was a worldwide sensation.Not a national sensation, but a real global sensation.It was far more sensational than when the Soviet Union announced that they had completed their first five-year plan a year ago.The famous newspapers in the world have almost all reprinted these data.

The data from the USSR a year ago was pretty good.

It should be said that it surprised many people.Because the data of the Soviet Union also exceeded the expectations of many people, breaking the original law of industrial development.

But the surprise was the surprise, it was just a little unbelievable, but it was not as shocking as China gave them.Because the Soviet Union was born out of Tsarist Russia after all.Although Tsarist Russia's industry is not good, but in any case, Tsarist Russia is also a veteran imperialist country, known as the "European Gendarmerie".Tsarist Russia still has a sufficient industrial base.

Just look at the industrial data of Tsarist Russia in 1913.

In 1913, the national power generation capacity of Tsarist Russia was 20 billion kWh, and the output of crude steel exceeded 400 million tons.And Tsarist Russia can manufacture its own weapons.Of course, Tsarist Russia's industry is average, so the military industry is not very good.

During the First World War, Tsarist Russia dispatched millions of troops.However, many of them did not have weapons at hand, and those troops with weapons were also very short of ammunition.

The industry is poor, but there is a foundation, this is Tsarist Russia.

Therefore, although the achievements of the first five-year plan of the Soviet Union are very dazzling, many people do not believe it, but there are still traces to follow.But China is completely different.

Just 20 years ago, what kind of country was China.The government of the Republic of China, which had just been established at that time, had no money in the central government, so Duan Qirui and Cao Kun, starting from Yuan Shikai, all had to look at the face of the General Taxation Department of China Customs.Because half of China's finances came from customs at that time.The Chinese government dare not do anything about what the General Tax Department of Customs says.A small customs general tax department can interfere in China's politics, economy, and military at will, and it is simply the overlord of China.
