Billy Zhou's statement ended, and all the participants were silent.

Wang He smiled and said, "Since the formation of the Luzon Committee, it has made great efforts for the prosperity of Manila. I am very glad that everyone has been working diligently, and the main responsibility for so many problems is not you. We formed a joint investigation team, not to liquidate, but to find the problem. At the beginning, our board committee passed a resolution to set up a preparatory group for the founding of the country, hoping that Manila would be used as a pilot to prepare for the company's future founding of the country.

The more problems arise, the fewer problems we will have when we build the country. Many directors of the company have put forward the intention of founding the country more than once, but as you can see, we have only taken over Manila for a few years, but there are already so many problems. If our territory will continue to expand in the future, we will also face many problems of one kind or another.

There are also some people in the Luzon Management Committee who behaved in the course of the Battle of Manila. At the moment of crisis in Manila, he was still acting rashly and even doing something that affected the company's unity and stability. I would like to reiterate here that if such a thing is found again, the company will never tolerate it, and everyone will weigh the consequences themselves.

These problems reflect that our company does have some hidden dangers. ∵ if you don't solve it now, it will inevitably become a stumbling block that will affect the company's development in the future. Don't think that if we stand on the shoulders of giants, we won't make mistakes, and we have to cross the river by feeling the stones. Now the more problems arise as much as possible, the sooner the better, and we still have time to make mistakes. ”

Gao Jianguo also took over the topic and said solemnly: "I agree with Lao Wang's opinion, don't be afraid of problems." If there is a problem, find a way to solve it, and don't always fantasize about copying the system of modern society. can conquer the world in this era. In view of the problems in Manila, we must first strengthen the company's internal security work, and the company decided to set up the Far East Homeland Security Bureau, headed by Ding Xinghao, under the intelligence department of the Military Commission.

In addition, the company will also prepare for the establishment of a legal committee. Of course, the most urgent task at the moment is to train professionals in this field and strive to establish a sound judicial system in the Far East controlled district within two years. In addition, it is necessary to establish a sound supervision and management mechanism, and set up the Far East Supervision Office, which is directly under the board of directors and committees, to audit and supervise the company's control area from time to time.

Many of the company's directors have been hoping that the Far East will build a nation, but in the current situation, the conditions are not in place. Liaodong is in ruins, and it will take several years for the South and Indian Oceans to digest. So the time is not yet ripe for statehood. ”

Hu Wei next to him also nodded and said: "At present, there are too many tasks in the company. If you want to complete it in a reasonable and orderly manner, you must strengthen your execution. Once the founding of the country is established, it will inevitably affect the work efficiency, and I agree with Lao Gao's opinion that the founding of the country should be postponed for the time being, and all resources should be concentrated on construction. ”

Gao Jianguo's opinion was supported by the vast majority of the Standing Committee members and members of the Board of Directors, who advocated first digesting the fruits of victory in the South and Indian Oceans and building Liaodong as much as possible. Settle Japan, Korea and the northern grasslands, and intensify efforts to migrate from the Ming Dynasty.

The meeting lasted one day. The next work was arranged and deployed, and the issues studied at the meeting were gradually implemented.

After the meeting was adjourned, the nine managing directors of the board of directors could not leave, and they had to continue the meeting. This year's work of the company has been fully launched, and Daming's immigration work is in full swing. Lessons learned from last year's immigration preparations.

The company removed a number of elite backbones from the Far Eastern musket militia and strengthened the management of displaced people. Divide the outcasts into squadrons for every hundred. It is equipped with five activists from the Shanxi people who have undergone winter training as team leaders.

After the winter training of the Shanxi Liumin, the company selected a group of backbone activists from them, conducted simple training for them, and then rushed to Henan with the fleet this spring to help Zhou Weifan and them work. Their main task is to guide and communicate with the displaced people. They speak with a Shanxian accent, and the effect of appeasing the displaced people is surprisingly good, and they are also from the displaced people before, so they know the displaced people better, and the displaced people also trust them.

Therefore, this year's work of the organization of displaced people has not been as chaotic as last year, and it has been very stable on the whole. Moreover, before the displaced people get on the boat, they will distribute a backpack containing fried noodles and water, which ensures the food supply of the displaced people along the way, and stabilizes the feelings of the displaced people.

The company's Vladivostok shipyard also launched two large sail carriers last winter. It adopts an iron-ribbed wooden hull, with a displacement of 2,800 tons, a carrying capacity of more than 2,000 tons, a total length of 65 meters, a width of 16 meters, a draft of 6.8 meters, and a sail power speed of 5-7 knots. It is equipped with two large steam boiler power units, with a maximum steam power speed of 9 knots, a maximum coal load of 800 tons, and a range of 5,000 nautical miles at an economic speed of 5 knots.

Work on the design of these two transport-aircraft sailboats began three years ago, and the Vladivostok shipyard has been working overtime to strengthen production in recent years, and more than 100 ships of both types have been launched due to the strong demand from the Admiralty of the Military Council for clippers and sloops.

It was not until the winter of the previous year, when the company decided to implement a large-scale plan to transport the people of Shanxi Province through the Guò Yellow River waterway, that the shipyard began construction of two demonstrator sailboats. Because the construction period was not urgent, Li Qicong was not in a hurry. The bulk of the forces are still constantly building two types of light warships.

The invasion of Manila by eight European countries last spring made the company's top management realize the importance of large transport aircraft sailing ships, so they immediately instructed the shipyard to speed up the construction of two transport aircraft sailing ships.

At this time, 70 percent of the two ships had been completed, and Li Qicong concentrated a large number of forces and launched them in the spring of this year. Because it was mainly to meet the needs of maritime transportation in the Far East, it was not built according to the standards of warships, and the weight of the iron parts of the iron ribs of the hull was not as much as half of that of the 800-ton cutting-edge sailing ship, and the hull was wide and clumsy, although the cargo load and seaworthiness were greatly improved, but the speed and maneuverability were also correspondingly reduced.

However, the construction cost is lower and the construction speed is faster than that of the cutting-edge sailboat. Thanks to modular components, all hull components can be mass-produced at Vladivostok enterprises and assembled in shipyards.

Moreover, compared to warships, if all resources are concentrated on construction, the assembly speed only takes 9 months. Two demonstrator-type vessels have already gone to the waters of Jiangsu and Zhejiang to participate in this year's transportation of displaced people from Shanxi and Shaanxi, striving to find problems in a few months of navigation tests so that they can be improved in the future. As soon as the various parameters meet the design requirements, next year the Vladivostok shipyard will concentrate its efforts on mass production and construction.

With the current production capacity of the Vladivostok shipyard, 8-12 ships can be launched in a year, which can greatly alleviate the current pressure on shipping in the Far East. (To be continued......)
