Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry.

imperial capital.

The victory in the war boosted domestic enthusiasm, and the whole country was filled with the spirit of hard work and rapid progress.

Watching the scene that was like a raging fire, Ren Zhong, a bystander in this world, felt a vague sense of uneasiness.

Looking at the adjustment list of the 25th Plan brought by Staff Officer Ye, it adds tens of millions of tons of steel production capacity, tens of millions of tons of fertilizer production capacity, tens of millions of tons of oil refining capacity, tens of millions of tons of shipbuilding capacity, and tens of millions of tons...

The tens of millions of tons plans completely exceeded the original 25-year plan that he presided over.

In terms of industry, it is a leap forward of several steps.

However, how many people have considered what conditions are needed to implement these multi-million plans? Can enthusiasm alone be enough?

However, it is not all about seeking progress. For example, in education, Ren Zhong initially pushed for an education-based plan, spending a large portion of the budget on building 100 universities and 10,000 primary and secondary schools. Now some people are starting to complain.

After all, these things require a lot of resources, and building a university is no cheaper than building a million-ton steel plant.

"During the 500th Five-Year Plan period, each province with a population of more than million must build at least one polytechnic university, one normal university, one advanced vocational and technical college, and a comprehensive university named after the province. Compulsory education must be extended to junior high schools and primary and secondary schools. These two goals cannot be changed."

Ren Zhong pointed to the adjustment list of the 25th Five-Year Plan, in which some people suggested a substantial reduction in investment in education. This was because some people wanted to invest limited resources in industrial development and achieve the grand goal of catching up with Britain and the United States as soon as possible.

However, when Staff Officer Ye took the draft amendment to seek Ren Zhong's opinion, Ren Zhong rejected it outright.

“These 10 million ton projects are planned too hastily. We do not have the foundation for full industrialization at this stage, let alone the high-level talent support for such a large factory.

Although the illiteracy rate has dropped to 50% after the literacy campaign during the First Five-Year Plan period, this is only a low-level literacy campaign. Our engineers and senior technicians are far lower than those of European and American powers in both total number and proportion of the population. It is impossible to achieve real industrialization and modernization on this basis.

The person who proposed to build blast furnaces everywhere is totally inappropriate at this stage. They cause great pollution and have low utilization and efficiency. They were just a stopgap measure in the war environment. We have finally replaced the old blast furnaces, and now there are people who propose to use them to achieve a steel production capacity of tens of millions of tons. "

"These are not long-term solutions. If we really want to grow bigger and stronger, we must persevere in promoting the development of education and improve primary and secondary school and university education as soon as possible. Only in this way can we obtain a real demographic dividend. Now, except for the smooth development of labor-intensive industries, industries such as the steel industry, chemical industry, and energy industry are lacking in skilled personnel everywhere, not to mention talent-intensive enterprises such as the aviation industry. Our three major aviation industry groups now have a shortage of technical personnel of up to tens of thousands each year, which greatly restricts the development of our aviation industry."

"Take the Y-47 passenger aircraft that we have developed based on the C-6. Even though the technology is mature, the skilled workers on the production line cannot keep up. Our annual production capacity is only 12 aircraft, which is far from meeting the needs of our aviation industry development. You should know that our aviation industry will need at least 500 passenger aircraft in the next five years. Because our production capacity cannot keep up, airlines can only wait."

"The domestic flights are now fully booked, and cannot meet the aviation needs of the people across the country."

"Although we have opened four aviation technical colleges, it is still not enough. The number of students enrolled and graduated each year is less than 4. This is a drop in the bucket for the aviation industry, which is starving. I suggest that all science and engineering universities should open aviation departments to study aviation-related technologies.

Of course, before that, at least the plan of one university in four provinces (regions) must be completed.”

"This is a very difficult task," Staff Officer Ye said with a wry smile, "We now have 50 provincial administrative regions. Although according to your idea, we will select 30 provinces and regions that meet the requirements after merging these provinces and regions, we have to consider building a total of more than 120 universities of various types. If we remove the ones that have already been built, we will have to build at least 100 new ones. Now we have to complete this goal within 5 years. For local finances, it is indeed a heavy burden."

"Education is a long-term plan. No matter how difficult it is, we must grit our teeth and carry on. I believe there is a way to achieve it. Don't think about building a high tower on quicksand. Without the support of talents, it is an unrealistic fantasy to consider achieving comprehensive industrialization now." Ren Zhong said without giving in.

"We need not only to build good schools, but also to provide favorable policies for teachers, and transfer a group of people from key universities to new schools to teach and train talents. At the same time, we need to do a good job in technology transformation and application from universities to enterprises and training."

"Staff Officer Ye, we have experienced the vigorous Beiyang Movement, but the result is nothing but an illusion. But if we have more than 5 colleges and universities in five years, and can train more than 50 college students every year, we will have more than 50 engineers and researchers every year in the next five-year plan to support our huge scientific research and industry to develop rapidly. It is completely unscientific to build a modern industry based on a group of semi-illiterate people who have just finished illiteracy.

The food industry and clothing industry, which are labor-intensive, may be able to do so, but the core workers in industries such as steel, chemicals, aviation, and machinery cannot be qualified by illiterate or semi-literate people.”

"There are more than 20 universities now, but they still haven't reached graduates a year."

What Ren Zhong said actually far exceeded the historical level of the main world. In that time and space, college students were even scarcer. In 1949, there were 2.1 college graduates. In 1951, there were even fewer, only 1.9. It was not until 52 that the number began to increase to 3.2, and continued to grow to 53 in 4.8. This was because the war ended in 49.

It would take until the late 50s to break through the 40 college graduates per year mark. In other words, it would take nearly years in the main world to reach Ren Zhong's desired goal for the th Plan.

Obviously, Ren Zhong has worked hard to support primary and secondary school and university education.

Staff Officer Ye felt that Ren Zhong was right, but he also faced a lot of pressure.

"Brother Ren, someone suggested opening a national central research institute. What do you think?"

"I have no objection. Whoever wants to set up one can do it. I hope that competition in the field of scientific and technological innovation is the best thing. However, the Dawn Research Institute was initiated by me, and has been developed independently without using a penny of the state's money. If someone is eyeing what I have, that's fine. I will leave and start over and build another Dawn Research Institute. As long as the country does not stop personal scientific research, I think it will not be too difficult for me to rebuild a Dawn Research Institute." Ren Zhong said calmly.

These people have been thinking about this for a long time.

Although it is extremely risky for a country's technological lifeline to be in the hands of a few people, once the wrong direction is chosen, a lot of money and time will be lost. This has happened many times in history.

But Ren Zhong is an exception. After all, he is the one who owns the main world's technology tree. As for the technological development trends in the next 50 years, no one in the world of Bright Sword is more qualified than him to lead.

Staff Officer Ye shook his head, he already knew the outcome of this topic. In fact, he was also disgusted by some people who were more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything, and who used the banner of the country but actually had their own ulterior motives.

The Liming Research Institute is now well-established and is not only a leader in domestic scientific research, but also a core shareholder in many giant companies. It has long since left the category of a money-burning monster and has become a veritable treasure trove.

Many people are naturally jealous of such a behemoth. However, Ren Zhong has a lot of prestige, so it is not easy for him to intervene in the research institute under the Liming Institute.

According to the rules set by Ren Zhong, research projects are based on the project leader system. Whoever undertakes the project is responsible for the allocation of funds. The Liming Research Institute has independent audits to ensure the compliance of various links in the middle.

Having said that, Ren Zhong hardly cares how the project leader carries out the project, as long as the results can be produced. At each milestone, an expert group will conduct a realistic review to determine whether the project progress has met expectations and whether there have been any deviations.

Since the directions of large projects were all decided by Ren Zhong, even if he did not understand the technical aspects of these projects, he could take them to the main world to ask his increasingly large number of technical consultants for evaluation. Thanks to the transactions between the two worlds, Ren Zhong in the main world was not short of money, so he could organize the employment of real experts from all walks of life as technical consultants.

That way, no one can blind his eyes.

In terms of technology, he is the only god in the world of Bright Sword!

Fortunately, the culture and personnel of the Liming Research Institute were brought up by Ren Zhong himself in the beginning. Most of them are real experts who are dedicated to scientific research. Ren Zhong only needs to solve their worries, from the initial good food to the current complete financial freedom. The core backbone's food, accommodation and medical care are all covered by the institute. Even if the salary they receive will not be too high due to domestic conditions to avoid criticism, they do not need to consider buying a house or a car for their family.

So for the core members of the Dawn Research Institute, the improvement in living conditions is simply earth-shaking.

It has already exceeded the level of high salaries they earn abroad.

It is much better than those within the system, which is one of the reasons why some people are keeping an eye on the Dawn Research Institute.

Fortunately, the leaders are clear-headed and do not take the complaints of some people below seriously.

"Brother Ren is right. Some people are just too idle. When they see others are capable, they think they can do it too." Staff Officer Ye was not surprised at Ren Zhong's words. Anyone would quit in this situation. And he had no doubt that even if the higher-ups designated the Liming Research Institute to be transformed into a national central research institute, Ren Zhong would make a call and the core members among those people would join the team without hesitation.

Leaving behind some marginal personnel thinking they can just muddle through, actually accomplishes nothing.

Moreover, the equity structure of many investment companies is complicated and not so easy to obtain. You may not be able to obtain the real benefits, and instead get into trouble.

Fortunately, Ren Zhong had anticipated this situation. He did not have too many demands in this world. In fact, he still had no intention of integrating into this world, even though he invested more energy in this world and his achievements reached unimaginable heights.

But in his heart, he is still an outsider, just like entering a game world, and he will not choose to spend his life in this world.

In this way, Ren Zhong actually doesn't care about anything here. Even if he has to start all over again, it's just that to him.

However, as an important footprint left in this world, Ren Zhong would not give in easily, so he straightforwardly expressed to Staff Officer Ye his determination to start over again.

Today, he has quite a few friends around him. Almost all of them in the Eighth Route Army Headquarters are his supporters. People of Li Yunlong's level are ranked outside the top 20.

Therefore, those who are jealous can only do some small actions at most.

"Let's forget about it. Our country is currently experiencing rapid technological development. Who would be willing to start from scratch?" Staff Officer Ye simply stood on Ren Zhong's side.

"As for education, since Brother Ren insisted, I have to bite the bullet and bear it. The main reason is that some people are fanning the flames all day long. The leaders are a little uneasy and always want to do it faster, faster."

"Staff Officer Ye, there is actually a swear word in my hometown, which means taking too big a step can easily lead to trouble. Some plans are obviously not practical and will lead to losses." Ren Zhong shook his head. He was indeed speechless with some people.

But this is normal. The situation is quite harmonious now. Thanks to the rapid growth in science and technology, and the complete victory over the rogue Eagle Alliance, the global market has been opened up. Everyone is pursuing development in harmony, and there are fewer unexpected problems.

Food production is of vital importance and has always been given great responsibility, so various water conservancy projects, mechanization, hybridization, fertilizers and other enhanced buf attributes have been continuously strengthened, and the effect is far better than the historical time and space of the main world.

Now that the door to wheat imports has been opened, the problem of having enough food should be solved.

So Ren Zhong should not panic, because the world will eventually become more friendly to Todai because of them.

He has grasped the backbone of military science and technology, and has done a good job in military-to-civilian transformation to lead the direction of large-scale industrial development. The final revival will obviously be advanced by many years.

For a passer-by like him, if he could live to see the day when Tokyo University stands at the top of the world, it would be worth his journey through time.

After this little episode, some messy things are bound to happen, but the overall environment has changed too much, and some weird things are destined to be suppressed and will not have a big impact on the mainstream. Ren Zhong doesn't care about these things.

After the development of roll-on/roll-off cargo ships, the idea of ​​building large ships gradually matured. In Ren Zhong's heart, the development of the navy has its own rhythm, so after the destroyer, Ren Zhong's next goal is to develop a small flat-bed - Mistral-class amphibious assault ship!

It’s not that he doesn’t like the 075 small tablet, but this thing is highly confidential. All that can be seen now are a few super simple schematic diagrams. Ren Zhong in the main world doesn’t dare to inquire about this thing casually.

In comparison, the Mistral-class data is much more detailed. Although it is impossible to obtain detailed design drawings, Ren Zhong does not need them. He only needs to outline the functional zoning in the blueprint.

Thanks to their own shipbuilding experience, the team is now fully capable of designing the specific details themselves. The ship is not a big problem, but more problems lie in the supporting facilities, such as the crucial helicopter!
