Tanaka Yoshiichi kept sighing today.After thinking for a while, he said, "The strength of the Chinese government is getting stronger and stronger, beyond our imagination. It seems that I will meet Duan Xun."

"Prime Minister, the above is the preliminary content of the third five-year plan formulated by the Economic and Development Commission."

1934 8 Month 15 Day.

After two months of deliberation, the Economic and Development Commission came up with the content of the third five-year plan.Before the meeting, Duan Xun took a rough look at this document.

Now it is necessary to consider this plan based on the reports of various departments.After all, what is written in writing is completely different from listening to the reports of various ministries and commissions in person.

"Prime Minister, the third five-year plan, let the Ministry of Industry talk about their plans first."

"it is good."

This is the meeting to formulate the third five-year plan, and all the ministries of the cabinet participated.Minister of Industry Ren Hongjun began to report on the plans formulated by the Ministry of Industry.

In fact, the plan is not isolated.

Each department's plan will have a relationship with other departments.After the Economic and Development Commission summarized the plans of various departments, it conducted more detailed discussions before finalizing the five-year plan.It's just that when reporting, it is still handed over to each department to report.

"Prime Minister, the third five-year plan of our Ministry of Industry is mainly divided into four major directions. The first is to consolidate the achievements of the second five-year plan. In the second five-year plan, our Ministry of Industry directly invests in the construction of factories There are more than 2100, plus factories in various provinces, cities, and private investment, there are as many as 500 large factories with an investment of more than 4000 million. However, the output of these factories has not reached the designed output. The problems here are very complicated. Many. Including our country’s lack of management experience in these factories, lack of factory technicians, lack of cooperation among factories, etc. Therefore, the first goal of our third five-year plan is to increase the output of these factories and let the output reach the design output As long as we can make the output of these factories reach the designed output, then our industrial data can be increased by at least half."

"kindness."

Duan Xun nodded, very satisfied with the first general direction of the Ministry of Industry.

The Great Leap Forward of the Second Five-Year Plan has brought about a sudden burst of factories in China and a sudden increase in industrial data.There are more than 500 large-scale factories with an investment of more than 4000 million yuan, and more than 500 factories with a downward investment of less than 8 million yuan.Among them, small factories with an investment of less than 7000 yuan account for the majority, with [-] factories.It can be said that during the second five-year plan period, China's industry took a real leap forward, and the number of factories increased astonishingly.What Duan Xun is most worried about is that the Ministry of Industry is starting to float up.

After all, the second five-year plan of China's industry is a real leapfrog development.If the Ministry of Industry squints its eyes in the face of such industrial data, and then only focuses on quantity and blindly builds factories, then it will be troublesome.As far as the current situation is concerned, it is not so easy for China to digest the factories established in the second five-year plan.

It's not just that the output of these factories is limited, and the designed output has not yet been reached.What's more important is that such a large output cannot be easily digested by China at present.

It is difficult to digest these. If you blindly pursue the quantity and continue to build a large number of factories like the second five-year plan, then it will be really troublesome.Not only is the output undigestible, but the blind expansion of the number of factories requires more workers.If urbanization proceeds too fast, it will also deal a heavy blow to China's agriculture.Agriculture is the foundation of stability, and China cannot be starved for the sake of industry.

Of course there is one big problem.

The government owed too much money for the second five-year plan.There are 24 billion US dollars in loans from financial institutions in European and American countries alone, and there are also many domestic loans.The Bank of China turned on the money printing machine, and the money was not printed casually.The government needs to borrow money from banks to lend money.Now that the money has been loaned out, the interest alone is not a small amount.The money is not printed for nothing, the government can take it for nothing.

If the third five-year plan only knows to build factories blindly, then the debt will continue to increase.This will seriously affect the government's finances.

It looks pretty good now.

The Ministry of Industry is not overzealous, and knows to stabilize the results of the Second Five-Year Plan first.

"The second is to continue to improve our country's industrial system. After the first five-year plan and the second five-year plan, our country's industrial categories are relatively complete. But some aspects are still a lot worse, or even completely blank. The first The three five-year plans are mainly to make up for leaks and improve our country’s industrial system. Therefore, the Ministry of Industry plans to focus on the development of metallurgy and precision instruments in the third five-year plan. Let our country have a better foundation in metallurgy and precision instruments.”

Chinese industry already has a certain foundation.

It can even be said that China's industrial scale is already very good, and the foundation is relatively solid.But after all, China's industrial development time is limited, and it is impossible to develop everything.So at present, China's industrial categories are not complete, and there are still many defects.The Ministry of Industry will make use of the Third Five-Year Plan to supplement these deficiencies.

Especially the metallurgical industry.

China has a vast territory and abundant resources, and a large amount of resources are exported every year.Therefore, China's mining industry is very developed, and mining data is number one in the world.It is a pity that China's metallurgical industry is very backward in technology.The result is that many minerals in China are not processed in China, but are exported directly, and a lot of money is lost.

The metallurgical industry is currently a big shortcoming in China.

Therefore, it is necessary for the Ministry of Industry to focus on the development of the metallurgical industry in the third five-year plan.In terms of precision instruments, this is China's absolute shortcoming.

Due to the limited development time of precision instruments, China has always been a rough and crazy industrial development model.However, as China's industry has a certain strength, it must take the road of quality.In order to develop technology in industry, precision instruments must be developed.

There is no crazy industrial development, but key development, key construction, and key breakthroughs, which is a very good idea.

"The third is to continue to introduce technical personnel. In the third five-year plan, we will import much less machinery and equipment than in the second five-year plan, but the pace of introducing technical personnel cannot be slowed down. In the next ten years, Our country still lacks a large number of technical personnel. Therefore, the introduction of technical personnel should be a long-term plan of the Ministry of Industry. The Ministry of Industry is willing to reserve part of the foreign exchange allocated as funds for the introduction of technical personnel."

Slow down the pace of importing machinery and equipment and increase the introduction of technical personnel.

The lessons are too great.

The second five-year plan is actually such a good opportunity.If China's reserves of technical personnel can be sufficient, then China will be able to soar into the sky in the second five-year plan.Many factories don't have that many problems.

But it is precisely because of the lack of technical personnel in China that many areas of the Second Five-Year Plan have become raw rice.There are machinery and equipment, and factories are built, but the output cannot increase.

Therefore, while the Ministry of Industry is cultivating talents, it must continue to introduce technical personnel.Mature technicians from European and American countries have made great contributions to many factories in China.

"Talent is the most precious wealth."

Duan Xun supports the Ministry of Industry's plan.

Talent introduction should be regarded as a long-term national policy, not just a strategy of the Ministry of Industry.Not to mention anything else, why the United States is the world's leader in history, and why is science and technology the world's number one.

That's because the United States uses the world's scientific and technological talents for its own use.

How many top talents in the world have been won by the United States.If only relying on the talents cultivated by the United States itself, how can the technology of the United States be so good.China's national conditions are different from those of the United States. The United States is a country of immigrants, but China is not.Therefore, China will definitely not be able to accept a large number of immigrants like the United States.But in terms of attracting talents, China can also do its best.China does not accept a large number of immigrants, but it can introduce a large number of skilled personnel.

"The last aspect is the most important task of the Ministry of Industry's third five-year plan."

"Tell me."

Duan Xun is also very interested.

The third five-year plan of the Ministry of Industry is not as vigorous as the second five-year plan. Overall, it is just sewing.Mainly to consolidate the Second Five-Year Plan.

And the choices are good.

But Ren Hongjun said that the fourth aspect is the most important task of the Ministry of Industry.Duan Xun really wanted to know what the fourth task of the Ministry of Industry was.

"Prime Minister, establish a national industrial standard."

"Tell me carefully."

Duan Xun opened the section on the plan of the Ministry of Industry, and asked Ren Hongjun very interested.Ren Hongjun cleared his throat and said, "Prime Minister, the sources of industrial machinery and equipment and industrial technology in our country are complicated. Counting from the end of the Qing Dynasty, the major countries such as Britain, France, Germany, the United States, and Japan needless to say, Italy, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, and Sweden There are machinery, equipment and technology from places like China, Spain, and Portugal. Including the current international students in our country, there are international students from various places. Because of this, there is no uniform standard in our industry.”

"This problem cannot be ignored, because it seriously restricts the development of China's industry. If this problem is not resolved quickly, China's industrial development will fall into a bottleneck and even waste a lot of resources. Many of the accessories we develop in Sichuan have Japanese standards. Of course, there are many German standards. In Wuhan, most of them are German standards, and the accessories are all to meet those German and Japanese products. As for Shanghai, most of the products are produced by British technology, so most of the accessory factories are to meet these products. .In the second five-year plan, we focused on importing American machinery and equipment and American technology. The parts factories we imported together were all American standard parts. In addition, there are a lot of factory parts from other countries, so the parts in the country are not Compatible, there is no unified standard at all. At present, China also has a tractor factory in Wuhan, but the accessories of this tractor factory cannot be used in Shenyang Tractor Factory and Xi’an Tractor Factory. Similarly, the accessories of Shenyang Tractor Factory and Xi’an Tractor Factory cannot be used In Wuchang Tractor Factory. At present, there are tractors produced by these tractor factories in the Construction Corps. But because their parts are not compatible, it is a lot of trouble just to repair them. This is just the simplest example. That's the case with a lot of other things. Just fixing it is a big mess."

"So our Ministry of Industry hopes that in the next five years, we will promote a unified industrial standard across the country and complete the standardization of some common accessories. In this way, the accessories produced by those accessory factories can be used nationwide. Just like the accessory factories in Shenyang and Xi'an When production is limited, spare parts factories in Wuhan, Chongqing, and Shanghai can provide support, so that large-scale industrial cooperation can be completed. And it is best to set a standard for military and civilian use, so that military use can be converted to civilian use, and civilian use is also required. Converted to military use. In this way, in peacetime, military factories can be converted to civilian use to produce products that the market needs. In times of war, civilian use can be immediately converted to military use to help the country produce weapons.”

Duan Xun nodded.

China's industry has grown to its current scale, and it's time to clean it up.

In the Second Five-Year Plan, China learned from the United States, introduced American machinery and equipment, and introduced American technology, which brought a great shock to Chinese industry.Let Chinese industry understand what is modern industry, what is standardization, what is assembly line, and why the American industry is so powerful.Compared with the piecemeal development of the past, China's industry now has a scale.Therefore, it is a very good idea to integrate these industries and let Chinese industries start to move towards a unified standard.

In particular, the unification of the most basic accessories is very necessary for the great development of industrialization.

"Step by step. Don't spread it all at once, it will easily affect industrial production. So list the basic accessories that need to be standardized, and then give the following factories a time."

"Yes."

"The idea of ​​the Ministry of Industry is good. We will formulate a more detailed plan and submit it to the Economic Development Committee for review, and then I will sign it."
