Chapter 1063: The Difference of One Vote
The creation of aircraft is a big problem, but since they have eaten up the technology of tanks, they are still building tanks very fast!
"We can't just be limited to the current tanks, we must have a special tank research and development department to upgrade our tanks!"
With the continuous changes in national defense in the future, the requirements for tanks will become higher and higher, and research and development can naturally stop.
"Each factory will have a research and development department, and in the future, these tank factories will also be separated, whose tank is advanced, our army will use whom, and the more financial support it gets, other tank factories can only follow behind to drink soup!"
Funds and competition are indispensable conditions for the development of advanced weapons, and if there is no competition, their equipment will remain unchanged for several decades, and they will certainly be beaten!
"Well, that's it, and another point, the territory I have lived in is large, there are all kinds of terrain, deserts, grasslands and mountains, and the water network in the south of the Yangtze River is dense, which means that we need more styles of tanks, so we can't just develop heavy tanks, light and medium tanks must also be developed, and they can play a stronger combat effectiveness with each other!" Liao Fan suggested.
China's vast territory also means more complex terrain, different terrain requires different tanks, if the heavy tank is driven to the area south of the Yangtze River with a dense water network, there is a road is fine, but if there is no road and then encounter continuous rainy weather, the heavy tank is very easy to get stuck in the quagmire, and then it will become a fixed target.
"And in the future, our country will also do arms trade, when we produce a new type of tank, we will follow up the production of a low-profile version of the tank, no need to mass-produce, just make a sample, and use it for export when the time comes!"
Arms is a big deal, and Liao Fan will definitely do these businesses in the future! Arms come quickly, and only when there is money can we build an international community.
"Brother Fan, can our tanks still be exported? Even our current technology is borrowed from the Germans and Soviets! Du Weize tactfully expressed that their technology for producing tanks is not their own, how to export, even if the export can compete with others?
"There is nothing that can't be done, only the unthinkable, you don't dare to think about it, it seems that the future tanks of our country will be like this!"
Liao Fan glanced at Du Weize and was a little dissatisfied, their tanks were stolen with good technology, even if they stole their own, and with technological progress in the future, maybe they would be able to build the best tank in the world.
Du Weize glanced at Liao Fan's expression and knew that he had provoked Liao Fan, what Liao Fan was most afraid of was not that he was incapable, but that he was worried about people in leadership positions who did not want to make progress!
"Brother Fan, I mean that now the whole world is in a state of war, and the magnesium country and the Soviet Union will definitely disdain to buy our weapons and equipment, and other countries cannot afford to pay their high war expenses, let us provide them with weapons, right?"
"That's not what you should worry about, what you have to do is to make the tank better, more powerful, more advanced, as for how to export it, it depends on our ability!"
Of course, arms exports will not be carried out during the Second World War, after the war, the world will be in a different situation, local wars will continue to break out, and small countries will have to protect themselves, but they have no technology, so they can only spend money to buy weapons from other countries.
"Yes, I will definitely urge our R&D department to improve all the performance of the tank as much as possible!"
Tanks and airplanes are conventional weapons in future national defense, but that doesn't mean they're always inconvenient! Moreover, it is more difficult for conventional weapons to make breakthroughs, because fixed thinking has already led to the idea that such weapons should be designed in this way.
Of course, Liao Fan doesn't need their designers to design weapons in a variety of ways, weapons should have the appearance of weapons, but what must be strengthened must be strengthened.
"And now your factories are getting more and more bloated, and there are more and more management departments, and some factories that seem to be not very important to the military and can be converted into civilian use have been contracted out, and all technologies that are not involved in the military can be transferred!"
With the development, their needs for many things are no longer so strict, and they have to be used for the army! For example, in the automotive industry, they don't have to control it, they can completely convert it into civilian factories, and then the military will place orders directly with these car manufacturers!
Du Weize also knew that as they inherited more and more military weapons, the departments under him also became diverse, producing everything! As a result, it has also led to the bloated of various departments, and even the supervision has begun to gradually fall into place!
In particular, the situation of a monopoly gradually began to happen, there was a monopoly in the industry, and the army could forcibly lower the price, but once it was used for civilian use, there would be various difficulties!
If these factories are contracted to individuals, there are manufacturers all over the country, even if there are one or two cases where the price is too high, the people can turn to other manufacturers to buy the products they need, coupled with the strict regulation of the local departments, some of the things that the people need will flow into the people's homes very easily.
Liao Fan's order to Du Weize was to streamline their organization and make their departments more efficient in improving the production and control of special military weapons.
For those things that are civilian, it can be produced by businessmen, increase the productivity of society and increase the employment rate of the people, which is an arrangement that kills several birds with one stone.
Du Weize has more and more experience of the bloated department to which he belongs, the more people are employed in various departments, but despite this, there is still a shortage of them, and more and more wages are issued, which are all taxpayers' money, and they are not used in key places, they are all used to open wages!
Now that there is Liao Fan's order, Du Weize will also unceremoniously streamline their department, which also means that there are many people who are in the dead place and have to lose their jobs, but there are also a group of good technicians who will get higher wages!
The competitiveness of the industry promotes everyone must learn and progress, only in this way can they continue to improve themselves, otherwise once there is an iron rice bowl, most people will become lazy and do not want to forge ahead, which will cultivate the inertia of a nation, which is not conducive to the development of the whole nation!
Since Shen Zhengwen doesn't care about eating, then when he comes to Du Weize, Du Weize must take care of Liao Fan's food! Although Du Weize was a little uncomfortable, he still arranged Liao Fan as properly as possible.
The most uncomfortable thing about eating this time was Liao Fan, because Du Weize also pulled several ministers under him to accompany Liao Fan to eat, although Liao Fan knew a table of people, but this kind of entertainment was really not what Liao Fan was good at, and after a full meal, Liao Fan found a place to rest!
He had to wait for Shen Zhengwen's news in Taiyuan, although their communication tools were already very developed, there were telephones, and Liao Fan was always accompanied by a telegraph, so it was impossible to miss the news! But after the meeting, Liao Fan wanted to know the preliminary plan they had set, if they could open three production lines, they would be able to complete the production of the required aircraft within a year.
The opening of three new production lines involves the scheduling of personnel, and it is necessary to reasonably match these engineers and technicians to ensure that the production is completed according to quality and quantity.
For the sake of their plane, Liao Fan would rather not do anything and board in Taiyuan for a day! This meeting was not an ordinary meeting, and the researchers and engineers under Shen Zhengwen had a heated discussion about it!
The meeting took place in the afternoon, but until the wee hours of the morning, they didn't come up with a result! The strong smell of tobacco in the conference room was almost breathless.
Judging from the messy tabletop, it is obvious that they have all had a fierce quarrel, and Shen Zhengwen has become the person in charge of order, for fear that they will fight, just like when Liao Fan saw him quarrel with Liu Deyun, for fear that the two of them would fight.
Gentlemen don't use their mouths, they all know that they are Sven people, they are good at researching and doing things, fighting is not something they are good at, just move their mouths, and everyone is arguing about whether things are feasible, never for individuals, if they do it, then the nature will change.
"Since everyone is in dispute, then we will use the old way to make a decision, the minority votes obeys the majority, and no matter what the result is, the other party must obey the work arrangement!"
Seeing that everyone had calmed down, Shen Zhengwen proposed that everyone finally vote on whether to continue to build the production line, and then some people would be separated from here and work elsewhere.
As the day dawned, the smoke began to dissipate in the conference room, and the engineers and scientists left the conference room one after another, arguing that they needed to get some rest after a night's discussion.
But Shen Zhengwen can't rest, Liao Fan is still waiting for him to report to work!
"What's wrong? In such a bad state, did you not sleep all night? ”
It can be seen from Shen Zhengwen's face that Shen Zhengwen and the others must have not slept all night last night because of the meeting.
"The results are out, Brother Fan, do you want to know the final result?" Shen Zhengwen was not in the mood to joke with Liao Fan at this time, he just wanted to finish his work and then go back to sleep steadily.
"Don't sell it, now everything is up to you, whether it works or not, it's up to you to arrange!" Liao Fan was also very anxious, but this matter was really not something he could decide.
"Congratulations to Brother Fan, you won, we voted in the end, just one vote away, and the result of the final meeting was to pass the proposal to build three more production lines, but we have a request, after the production of two hundred aircraft, we will choose to close two of these production lines!"
The result was an agreement, but it also meant that many engineers and researchers would have to leave their current positions and start a new life in a new place.
