The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

Wang Tiezhu and others had just left.

As a result, Liu Tao received a call from Wang Tiezhu that night.

"What!"

"What did you say!?"

Liu Tao looked shocked.

The title of China's advanced scientific and technological worker is a valuable honor.

It is often only those nationally famous scientists who obtain it.

It’s not like Liu Tao has never won honors. He has won awards from Kunming City, Yun Province, and even the Fifth Machinery Department.

Liu Tao cannot count these honors with both hands.

But this is the first time for this kind of honorary title issued by the state.

That was why he was shocked.

"A total of 33 people were selected across the country this time, and you are one of them. This is the country's recognition of you, and it is also a great honor for you." Wang Tiezhu said solemnly: "I hope you will guard against arrogance and impatience, and never be arrogant and complacent. , continue to work hard and contribute to national defense construction.”

The national advanced scientific and technological workers are selected from all workers engaged in scientific and technological research in the country. There is only one Liu Tao in the entire military industry system. In fact, it is Liu Tao who has continuously developed various types of firearms, which is extremely important to China's national defense construction. meaning.

The development of a firearm takes up to ten or even twenty years.

But Liu Tao was able to develop a firearm with superior performance in a very short time.

Although these firearms have only been around for a short time, they have been tested on the battlefield and are deeply loved by soldiers and have extremely excellent performance.

These firearms will be the weapons and equipment that will be replaced in batches by the army in the future.

Liu Tao is very young. How difficult it is to obtain the honor of a national advanced scientific and technological worker. Wang Tiezhu knows very well that when the list was submitted before, to be honest, no one had expectations.

This honor requires qualifications, and those who can obtain it must be scientists who are famous all over the country.

Wang Tiezhu is now very worried that Liu Tao will be proud and complacent, and it is inevitable to warn him again and again at this time.

Liu Tao put down the phone, his head was buzzing, and he was stunned by this huge honor.

If it was at the provincial level or with ministry honors, Liu Tao wouldn't be like this and would only be a little excited.

But this honor for a national advanced scientific and technological worker is a huge surprise.

It took a long time for Liu Tao to recover.

He clenched his fists, waved them vigorously a few times, and roared excitedly.

At this time, his heart was full of excitement and surprise, and he was full of motivation to move forward.

arrogant! ?

How can it be!

He is a man with golden fingers. How could he be so proud and complacent after achieving such an achievement? !

It would be too small to be proud of even this little achievement!

Now is just the first step in a long journey of thousands of miles, and even better things are yet to come!

Afterwards, Liu Tao began to make arrangements.

The time given to him is only one month!

A month later, he will go to the capital to attend the conference and receive the honor.

The first thing Liu Tao started working on was machine tools shipped from other places. These machine tools can be used to produce bullets and firearms. However, these machine tools have been used for many years and are old machine tools with far less accuracy and efficiency. Not as good as before.

What he has to do is to reset these machine tools to a brand new state.

Liu Tao cannot upgrade machine tools because he is not a machine tool manufacturer.

But there is no problem in repairing the machine tool.

This night, it seemed a bit hot.

In a newly built production workshop, Liu Tao is busy assembling the produced parts.

This production workshop will be specially used to produce heavy sniper rifle bullets in the future.

Otherwise, it would be too inefficient to rely solely on manual production of heavy sniper rifle bullets.

Those who can rely on machines must still use large-scale machine production to improve production efficiency.

Liu Tao believes that the appearance of modern human history is modernization, but its essence is industrialization. Only by realizing industrialization and mastering modern manufacturing can we control our own destiny.

The reason for the rise of the West is industrialization. With the power of large-scale machine production, it has "dominated the world" in terms of economic efficiency and military efficiency, forming a "dimension-reducing blow" to agricultural civilization and collection civilization.

Since the founding of New China, China has always had a goal, which is to turn an agricultural country into an industrial country.

In the past few decades, the United States and the Soviet Union were the two most powerful countries in the world. In order to achieve industrialization, China first learned from the Soviet Union and paid a huge price to obtain 156 industrial projects assisted by the Soviet Union. These 156 large projects It can be said that this is the largest transfer of intellectual property rights in the history of human industrialization, and it has established China's industrial framework in one fell swoop.

It can be said that no matter how high you value the 156 industrial projects aided by the Soviet Union, it is impossible to overestimate them.

It directly gave China a framework for industrialization, and it is still a beneficiary even now.

Kissinger secretly visited China in 1971, and Nixon officially visited China in 1972. The relationship between the two parties reconciled, and China also began to learn modernization knowledge from the United States.

Liu Tao has never thought that everything must be done manually, because even if he is given dozens of eighth-level and ninth-level workers, it will not bring about fundamental changes. But machines are different, which can greatly improve production efficiency and Production quality.

For example, once this heavy-duty sniper rifle bullet production line is completed, it will only require a dozen people to complete the production capacity of several thousand people.

This is because he cannot build a too advanced production line, otherwise the production efficiency will be further improved.

This is a very embarrassing situation that Liu Tao is facing now. The machines he builds cannot be too advanced, otherwise no workers will know how to operate them, and workers have to be retrained. After a long period of exploration, they can slowly master it.

"Find some time to get air conditioners installed in dormitories and factories." Liu Tao was sweating profusely.

It’s the scorching heat of mid-summer at this time. Even if it’s late at night, you’ll be sweating while working.

Of course, this is something I have thought about in my mind, and it cannot be realized for the time being.

It's very simple. To build an air conditioner, you must have electricity to use it. But now that the hydropower station has not been built, the electricity is not enough for current use, let alone for supplying air conditioners.

In order to save electricity, dormitories even use less lamps for lighting and instead use candles and kerosene lamps.

Before I knew it, it was already dawn outside.

Liu Tao looked at the assembled production line and smiled.

After working for so long, I finally built this bullet production line.

Liu Tao began to debug the production line. After the production line was built, he didn't know whether it could be used. He had to continue debugging it.

With the help of the upgrade system, Liu Tao constantly corrected mistakes.

Brush brush brush~~

The glimmer of light kept flickering.

Every glimmer of light is Liu Tao repairing defects.

It wasn't until about nine o'clock in the morning that the production line was debugged. Liu Tao yawned, showing a tired look, and lay down to sleep in the production workshop.

Even Liu Tao, who is young and strong, cannot bear the continuous high-intensity work.

When I got off the bus, I just closed my eyes for three seconds when the sound of Liu Tao's snoring could be heard in the production workshop.
