The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

At the beginning of the year, according to data released by the newly established Administration of Foreign Exchange, foreign exchange reserves were only US$183 million!

The entire country’s foreign exchange reserves are only US$183 million!

And foreign exchange reserves include not only US dollars, but also British pounds, Hong Kong dollars, francs, German marks, rubles, etc.!

I’m afraid it doesn’t even have US$30 million in foreign exchange reserves that are really in US dollars.

As for foreign affairs departments, embassies and consulates in overseas countries, including the United Nations, all need to use foreign exchange, especially US dollars.

Not to mention, with the reform and opening up policy adopted at the end of last year, various fields and units require a large amount of foreign exchange to purchase books, study abroad, purchase advanced machinery, etc.

24.67 million U.S. dollars, if given to Liu Tao, Liu Tao can get almost 70 million yuan.

But Wang Baoguo's opening means that he can only get 37 million yuan.

And now that Wang Baoguo has spoken, it means that this is not only the meaning of Wang Baoguo, but the meaning of the entire Fifth Machinery Department.

The first level of officialdom crushes people to death!

What's more, Wang Baoguo is seven levels older than him in terms of administrative level!

If it is considered general, it is also the third level of official college.

My arms can't hold my thighs!

Liu Tao could only comfort himself secretly. This was considered as sitting on the ground and dividing the accounts, almost half per person!

Otherwise, all the benefits will be taken away by Panshan Machinery Factory, so why should the Fifth Machinery Department contribute?

Wang Baoguo looked pleased when he saw Liu Tao agreeing.

This is a young man who understands the overall situation!

"The ministry has discussed the matters you mentioned last time at a meeting. At the end of the year, an expert team will be sent to Panshan Machinery Factory to inspect. If satisfied, it will be upgraded to a large-scale military factory and placed directly under the ministry." Wang Baoguo said.

Liu Tao's eyes lit up.

If it can be upgraded to a large military factory, then it will not be a loss this time, but a profit.

When Panshan Machinery Factory is upgraded from a small and medium-sized military factory to a large military factory, the administrative level of the unit will not necessarily be improved, because the administrative level of the original Panshan Machinery Factory will appear to be higher because of Wang Tiezhu.

However, it is the same department-level unit, but the administrative level may be different!

It is entirely possible for his administrative level to be raised from level 13 to level 12.

Although the salary will only increase by 18 yuan after being promoted to such a level, you must know that this represents a very important step.

Moreover, it has become a large-scale military factory and is directly under the ministry. This also means that as long as the scale is reached in the future, it will be much easier to upgrade the factory's level.

If it belongs to the Yun Provincial Defense Management Office, then the current administrative level has come to an end, because the level of the Yun Provincial Defense Management Office is there.

Wang Baoguo reminded Liu Tao, "The transformation of the military into civilian affairs is the general trend. This is the result of the decision-makers' proactive strategic response to the domestic and foreign situations."

The army has been transformed into civilians, and now the news has risen.

The current national defense industry, after thirty years of arduous construction after liberation, has formed a relatively independent system with complete functions, supporting facilities, reasonable layout, and a large team. This system has contributed to enhancing the comprehensive national strength of New China and defending New China.

However, as decision-makers make new judgments on historic trends, peace and development are the themes of the world. This also means that China's national strategic focus has shifted to construction as the center. The national defense construction that was in a wartime state in the past has accordingly established a new era of obedience. New guidelines for national construction.

As a result, the huge national defense industry is facing a very sharp contradiction: on the one hand, with the establishment of the national defense industry system and the completion of the third-line construction, military production capacity has doubled; on the other hand, military product orders have dropped sharply. There is a serious imbalance between production capacity and social needs.

It is precisely for this reason that the decision-makers have formulated the policy of integrating military and civilian industries for the national defense industry.

Converting the military to civilians requires the decomposition and reorganization of the production factors of national defense and strives to achieve effective allocation of resources. And this includes five aspects, namely commercialization of material resources, flexibility of equipment resources, diversification of technical resources, etc.!

Liu Tao naturally knew that this was the general trend, and he had heard some things.

In Yun Province, even though the "Red Dragon's Roar" ended not long ago, the production tasks of many national defense and military industries have dropped significantly, causing many military industries to fall into the predicament of suspended or semi-suspended production.

I don’t know how many factory directors went to Wang Tiezhu every two days to complain, either to give them production quotas or to allocate funds.

Worried, Wang Tiezhu tentatively asked if he could take over a few more factories when he was on the phone with Liu Tao.

"The third-tier small and medium-sized factories were transferred from the military to civilians and assigned to the local industrial bureaus. It is so cruel and unfair to the military workers who worked tirelessly and hard back then!" Liu Tao showed a look of intolerance.

"There is no way, the military production tasks have dropped significantly, and we cannot support so many military industry enterprises." Wang Baoguo showed a helpless look.

In the past, I was rushing to compete in the S3 season, so I naturally did it at all costs.

After all, if it’s not on the table, it’s on the menu.

The losers of the S3 season will be dismembered and divided, and even the bones will be eaten by the winners.

It’s different now. If the decision-makers make the judgment that ‘peace and development are the world’s themes’, then the focus will change and economic construction will be the center!

Wang Baoguo was promoted from the Yun Provincial Defense Management Office. In this position, he is more aware of the plight of third-tier military industrial enterprises and how huge the third-tier military industrial enterprises across the country are.

The national defense management offices of various provinces often complain to the Ministry of Machinery.

The words "military to civilian" are just three words, but it contains so much bitterness!

Liu Tao sighed. Reform and opening up is a historical trend. He also knows that China has made great achievements in economic construction after reform and opening up, but behind this, it has also paid a huge price.

This is not to say that there are no advantages and no disadvantages. It is just that among the advantages and disadvantages, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

"You are indispensable for the Panshan Machinery Factory to be what it is today. If it weren't for you, the Panshan Machinery Factory would have had to convert the military into civilians." Wang Baoguo said.

Because of the firearms and semi-automatic bullet production lines developed by Liu Tao, there is no shortage of military procurement due to the installation. There is no upper limit on the production task indicators of Panshan Machinery Factory. In addition, with this foreign trade order, Panshan Machinery Factory can survive It is quite nourishing. At least none of the military factories directly under the Fifth Machinery Department can compare with Panshan Machinery Factory.

The system formulated by Liu Tao has also achieved good results in Panshan Machinery Factory and has become a model for military industrial enterprises. The Fifth Machinery Department is summarizing, studying and promoting it.

"Leader, can Panshan Machinery Factory also take care of some civilian fields?" Liu Tao asked: "If possible, it would be better to make profits in the civilian field and subsidize the military industry."

Liu Tao had a look of expectation in his eyes.

The military industry is one leg, and the civilian industry is another leg.

Walking with only one leg is always unstable. Walking with two legs is stable.
