The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

Five-axis machining center, which is only used in Europe and the United States.

Belongs to the international absolute embargo!

Any five-axis machining center produced will be monitored by the Output Control Coordinating Committee!

It is no exaggeration to say that the five-axis machining center is the most advanced equipment in military manufacturing equipment.

There are not many units in the world. This most advanced processing equipment is mainly used for the processing of high-precision military equipment, especially the processing of core parts such as fighter jets, tanks and submarines.

Even though the Soviet Union had strong industrial strength, it did not have a five-axis machining center.

This is also an important reason why Soviet submarines are relatively noisy!

Liu Tao's goal is to have a four-axis machining center at the lowest level, and a five-axis machining center at the best.

But now, it's obvious that you can't buy it by buying it, you can only do it yourself.

"Leader, before the 256 factory was transferred to our Panshan Machinery Factory, I once proposed to build a large tank manufacturing plant in Yun Province. Is the design team ready now?" Liu Tao asked.

He went to Factory 256. As a result, he was not very satisfied with the factory area of ​​Factory 256, but the production capacity of Type 59 tanks was very limited.

Factory 256 only produces a few dozen Type 59 tanks every year, and the largest crane in the production workshop is less than 20 tons. It is obviously unable to produce Type 80 self-propelled anti-aircraft guns and Type 80 main battle tanks.

As for the production of tank barrels and diesel engines, they are far from up to standard.

To this end, he specifically requested that a large tank manufacturing plant be built, and the location of the plant was also selected.

But I haven’t seen the design team for a while.

"The design team has been formed, and we have mobilized elite soldiers and generals from all over the country." Wang Baoguo said, "Comrade Zhenbang will take you there later."

"Is it really necessary to invest such a large amount of money?" Wang Baoguo frowned slightly: "The country has no money to allocate to you, so it can only allocate people to you."

"It is imperative to produce self-propelled anti-aircraft guns and tanks!" Liu Tao sighed: "Otherwise, even a machine factory may not be able to satisfy it."

No. 1 Machinery Factory is undoubtedly the largest tank manufacturer in China.

It also has the most machinery and equipment, which is far beyond the comparison of 256 Factory.

In front of No. 1 Machinery Factory, Factory 256 is like a younger brother.

"It covers an area of ​​10,000 acres and has an investment of one billion. This area is almost a quarter of that of a machine factory!" Wang Baoguo looked at Liu Tao.

The No. 1 Machinery Factory covers an area of ​​more than 20 square kilometers and is the largest tank manufacturing plant in the country.

But that is a machine factory located in the prairie, a vast area with sparsely populated areas.

The new factory area Liu Tao chose to build for Factory 256 is located in a mountain city. The landform of the mountain city is dominated by hills and mountains. It is not easy to build such a large factory area.

In particular, the investment reached one billion, and all the money had to be paid by Panshan Machinery Factory. The state had no money to allocate to Panshan Machinery Factory.

"No matter how big the investment is, it's worth it!" Liu Tao's eyes were full of determination.

One billion is enough to invest now, but maybe in a few years it will be 10 billion.

More importantly, it will most likely be difficult to obtain such a large piece of land by then.

As long as this tank factory is completed, it can produce 100 self-propelled anti-aircraft guns or tanks every month, and the annual production scale can reach 1,200 vehicles.

And unlike No. 1 Machinery Factory and Factory 256, this will be a brand new modern tank manufacturing plant.

After completing the prototype this time, Liu Tao couldn't wait to come to the capital to sell it, hoping to get a big order and build this modern tank factory with a deposit.

Wang Baoguo looked at Liu Tao deeply, and he found that he could not see through Liu Tao at all.

Sometimes he wanted to split Liu Tao's head open to see what Liu Tao was thinking.

This kind of courage is simply appalling.

One billion was invested in building a tank manufacturing plant, but how much did China invest in building a machine plant?

Liu Tao went through the formalities first, got the money first, and settled down.

He was already familiar with this matter and completed the procedure quickly. He only needed to wait until he returned to Kunshi and go to the bank in Kunshi, and the money would be completely transferred to the account of Panshan Machinery Factory.

Later, Liu Taocai came to the Design Institute under the leadership of Liu Zhenbang.

This design institute is specifically responsible for the planning and design work of the military factory affiliated to the Fifth Machinery Department.

When Liu Tao was discussing with the person in charge, he couldn't help but frown slightly, because he found that the other party's ideas were based on the previous tank manufacturing factory.

Considering this line of thinking, the built tank manufacturing plant simply cannot meet his requirements.

"It seems that I need to be more involved in this matter. Come up with your own ideas and plans first!" Liu Tao thought to himself.

However, topographic surveying and geological drilling work can be carried out by them first.

After leaving, almost after get off work time, Liu Tao and Liu Zhenbang took the bus to Shichahai.

During the few days that Liu Tao returned to Beijing, Liu Zhenbang and Chen Fang would go to the courtyard house in Shichahai. On weekends, Chen Fang, the mother-in-law, would accompany Zhu Lin.

That night, Liu Tao accompanied his wife on a night trip to Shichahai. At this time, the night was quite cool and there was no heat during the day. Many people were playing in Shichahai.

You can even see that there are many more people doing business here than before.

There are obviously more self-employed people.

It's just that self-employed people don't have a formal status now. In the eyes of many people, they are speculators and they may be arrested at some point.

At this time, being a self-employed person doing small business is actually a very risky thing.

No one would become self-employed unless they were very flexible or had no choice but to do so.

Even if you earn a very low salary in a company, it is better than being a self-employed person.

Since the educated youth returned home, the number of registered unemployed youth across the country has reached an astonishing 15 million. And this is only the registered ones. If you add in the unemployed young people who have not registered, it is estimated that there are at least 20 million!

Moreover, many parents left their workplaces in order to give up their jobs to their children. In order to reduce the burden on their children, these people became self-employed and started small businesses one after another.

Liu Tao then saw that many middle-aged people in Shichahai were in their forties or fifties.

"Shichahai is getting more and more lively now, and college students will come here to play." Zhu Lin held Liu Tao's hand and touched his belly unconsciously with the other hand.

Now Zhu Lin has also shown her pregnancy, especially now that she is wearing less clothes.

What Zhu Lin was wearing today was obviously fashionable compared to the people around her.

Liu Tao smiled and said: "This place will become more and more lively in the future, our country's economy will develop better and better, and people's lives will continue to get better and better."

"Shichahai is very close to the university. It's normal for students to come when they have time." Liu Tao said, "When I was in school, I would come here for a walk on weekends."

Here in Shichahai, there are Beijing Normal University, Jiaotong University, University of Political Science and Law, University of Finance and Economics, Beijing Jianzhuan University, and a little further away, there are more universities.

For college students in this era, the state provides a monthly subsidy of 19.5 yuan in meal stamps and an additional 2 yuan in hardship subsidies, which means they can receive a monthly subsidy of 21.5 yuan, which is more than the monthly income of many ordinary people. Be high.

If you save some money, you can even send money home.

It costs nothing to go to college, and there is a monthly national subsidy, so college students will naturally go out to play more.
