Chapter 234 Project 201
After the secretary-general Wang Zhaoming left, Song Biao recruited Mei Yiqi, executive director of the Science and Technology Committee of the Advisory Bureau, to the office and asked Mei Yiqi to draft a detailed report on the Empire 201 project.
The legendary Tsinghua president completed his PhD in Industrial Physics at the University of Virginia in the public fund study abroad program of Central Imperial University. He served as executive director of the Science and Technology Committee of the Neijing Advisory Bureau and was responsible for following up on the 201 countries.
Science and technology research engineering.
Mei Yiqi was still very young at this time. She was just over thirty years old. She was tall and thin with glasses. She was really a typical scholar. In the craze of almost blind worshipping the emperor across the country, she is currently the Central Emperor.
When the principal Huang Zhongliang recommended him to serve as the executive director of the Science and Technology Committee of the Neijing Advisory Bureau, Mei Yiqi was naturally extremely excited, but in the past six months since the 201 project was officially launched, he had not had the opportunity to meet the emperor.
Suddenly, he received a call from the emperor directly in the office and asked him to report his work. Mei Yiqi was so excited that he was busy and he was in a hurry. He didn't know how nervous he was.
Accompanied by the eunuch, Mei Yiqi entered the office, and found that the emperor was drinking tea in front of the window outside the balcony. The huge office was so magnificent, but so empty. The marble on the ground was as smooth as a mirror.
It can almost capture Mei Yiqi's figure.
He approached a little, helpless, wondering whether he had to salute in the center of the hall or walked forward to salute. Fortunately, the eunuchs were experienced and signaled him in advance and led him to the emperor and bowed.
I heard that the tall and thin middle-aged and young man in front of me was Mei Yiqi. Song Biao showed some interest and asked Mei Yiqi to sit down in front of the balcony with him, and asked someone to prepare a tea cup for Mei Yiqi.
When the brewed oolong tea was delivered, Song Biao personally poured tea for Mei Yiqi and said, "In the past, there were refreshments when we received people for the first time, but unfortunately, almost no one wanted to eat half a piece of palace snack here, which was always a waste.
.So it’s cancelled. The rules have been changed now. When you go out, the eunuchs will prepare a box of palace snacks for you.”
Mei Yiqi hurriedly thanked: "Your Majesty is so polite..."
Halfway through his words, he thought this was too stupid. He hurriedly changed his words: "Thank you, the emperor."
As he said this, he was so embarrassed that he was about to stand up, feeling more and more that he was too unruly. How could he be on an equal footing with the emperor?
Song Biao signaled him to sit down and said, "You are lucky. It's just my rest time. You can come in and report your work at a more casual time. You are not responsible for military and political affairs, so you don't have to be so stubborn. Sit down,
Tell me about 201."
Mei Yiqi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Reporting to the emperor, since the plan was determined, a total of 127 projects were formulated from May last year to yesterday. It involves electricity, railways, ships, chemicals, pesticides, machinery, radio,
31 major projects including medicines, covering a wide range of areas, including 35 projects such as hybrid rice proposed by the emperor. They have been officially established and some projects are progressing smoothly. In the case of insufficient researchers, we also recruit foreign experts and
Consultants assisted in the solution. Currently, there are 11,348 domestic scientific and technological workers and 7,493 foreign experts assisted in the work. Some technologies such as rolling homogenized marine steel plate research work has basically achieved the first phase of the results at this stage.
Projects such as high-power steam turbine generator sets and high-voltage transformers have German technology and their basic work at the Northeast Electric Power Industry Research Institute. The progress at this stage is also very smooth."
Song Biao nodded slightly with satisfaction, and then asked: "Where is the field of nuclear physics?"
Mei Yiqi thought about it and replied: "Prince, these are all industrial application research. As long as the ideas are correct, progress will usually be compared. However, some basic scientific research fields may not have real results in more than ten years.
It is also a very normal fact in scientific research, so we still need heaven. A heaven can often be worth thousands of mediocre researchers."
Song Biao agreed: "Yes, you said it very correctly. I think so too. Therefore, the empire should put education first. The empire has a large population and there is absolutely no shortage of children with heavenly potential, but lack of
The truly appropriate education helped them become pillars of the empire.”
Mei Yiqi said: "My ministers think that the empire has gradually had a relatively good foundation in university education. Whether it is Zhendan University, Central Empire University, Imperial University of Science and Technology, or provincial universities in each province, the level is still
Gradually improving, but basic education still needs to be strengthened. How much good basic education can be created, and universities can cultivate real academic elites."
Song Biao nodded in agreement and said, "You are right, but the national conditions of the empire are here. Although our education expenditure this year is almost the same as that of the United States, there is still a big gap compared to that of the United States. The key is
Because our country has a large population and the pressure on basic compulsory education is heavy, it can only provide formal primary and junior high school education in provinces with good economic conditions, while poorer provinces mainly guarantee basic literacy education and illiteracy work. This still requires step by step
Come on, there is no reason to say that you can walk the road of others in a few years."
Mei Yiqi replied: "The emperor is wise."
Song Biao came to Mei Yiqi, not to talk to him about education, but instead asked: "Is there any difficult funding situation in the 201 project?"
Mei Yiqi said: "The Prime Minister attaches great importance to the 201 project. Currently, three main methods are adopted. One is that the basic scientific research part is mainly through cooperation with universities, and the other is that industrial technology adopts subsidies and support to the factory.
Carry out related work; third, government investment is mainly done in the military and special areas. From the current perspective, the total cost is still relatively abundant, mainly because we must do what we can at this stage, with few pioneering things and catching up
There are many things. Especially the large number of methods of directly hiring experts from abroad, which makes us significantly more efficient in catching up with technology. Some foreign experts have already engaged in a large number of related research in China.
It is easy to achieve results, and the expenditure is relatively low. Overall, many industrialists are also very active and enthusiastic in this. As long as it is the call of the imperial government, whether it is to improve technology or technology, or it is
It is required to train more scientific researchers and train more senior technicians. The industrialists are all actively responding. I have also dealt with many industrialists in the past six months. I am quite touched, so I also believe that the funding for the Empire 201 project is not
The problem. What's more, the large scale of the empire's investment is not a problem in itself. Confidence and enthusiasm are the key. The people have such confidence and enthusiasm, and patriotism and loyalty to the emperor are above everything else. This is the fundamental reason why the Empire's 201 project will be successful!"
After hearing these words, Song Biao remained silent for a while.
After a while, he and Mei Yiqi reminded: "Let everyone be rational. Chasing over the powers and national liberation has never been done overnight. The important thing is to explain to the internal parties. We must do some basic emergency responses to the 201 project.
The plan can provide temporary emergency loans for some companies. Secondly, technical personnel should be supported to actively participate in entrepreneurship, and banks with sufficient capital should be encouraged to participate in investment technology. Professional investment banks can be established. The government can contribute part of the capital or set up a China alone.
Investment Bank is specifically responsible for closely cooperating with the 201 project.”
Mei Yiqi agreed.
Although he is not an internal official and has a low administrative level, in his position, his responsibility is to be responsible for the special exchange channels between the emperor and the internal government for the 201 project.
Song Biao is very interested in the 201 project. It is not something that Mei Yiqi can satisfy her by simply reporting. He also carefully browsed the information and reports that Mei Yiqi sorted out, and consulted Mei Yiqi.
After some opinions, some special comments were made on each key project.
At this time, Song Biao had already determined that if China wants to continue to develop, it can only rely more on technological progress rather than simply relying on investment growth.
Taking advantage of the economic crisis in Germany and France and the war and depression in Europe, as well as the special situation within the Soviet Union, the empire recruited a large number of outstanding scientific and technological personnel and experts from Europe and the Soviet Union. Not only did they add scientific and technological research in their own country, but they also stole the large number of German and European countries.
Some important technologies.
Such a job can be called hiring for foreign experts, robbery by fire, or technology theft, because the empire is targeted to hire experts and scientific and technological personnel from various countries. In some important projects, the empire will also
Secretly transfer technologies through other operating channels, such as providing special funds to assist the military industry, and converting part of the debt into aid loans in important companies such as Krupp and Thyssen.
For example, in terms of shipbuilding steel, the Empire itself has mastered the Classa series of shipbuilding steel through Bethlehem, but it has continued to cooperate with Germany in secret, introduced people and technology from Germany, and transferred to the KC series of shipbuilding steel. The country
We are also continuing to promote hardening research on alloy steel and surface carburizing technology at the Northeast Metallurgical Industry Research Institute.
By comparing the two technologies, the Empire used the KC series process combined with the Classa ratio to test the... series of surface carburized silicon-molybdenum alloy steel, with an average value of about 7% higher than that of the KC series, especially in response to the heavy weight
The performance of bullets is superior.
In the fields of electrical, chemical, steam turbine, internal combustion engine, submarine, etc., the scale of the Empire introduced from Germany was amazing. In Qingdao and Haizhou, the Empire specially opened the German area, and introduced more than 4.75 million professional personnel from Germany, just in chemical industry
In the dye industry, the Empire expanded its entire set of technical and technological formulas in just three years, and its products were four times larger.
In the fields of mining exploration, agriculture and education, the empire introduced directly from Europe to a huge scale, especially the empire adopted the policy of recognizing dual nationality, and the European population living in China (excluding Russians) surged from 5.23 million people in 1913 in 5.23 million people
By 1921, 224.33 million were the nationality accounted for 31%, while the population of Russian foreign and nationality increased to 35.84 million.
Among them, the Russian population mainly lives in Siberia, the three eastern provinces, the Far East Province, and the French are mainly concentrated in Shanghai, Fuzhou, and Germans are concentrated in Liaoning Province, Tianjin, Qingdao, Weihai, and Belgians are concentrated in Tianjin, Shanghai, British and Irish are mainly concentrated in
Concentrated in Shanghai and Hong Kong.
Since World War I, although the Empire has not launched a national industrial plan similar to 175 projects, the Empire Industry is still in the rapid expansion of technology and total product volume. Especially in oils, textiles, dyes, chemicals, machinery, electrical, automobiles,
The expansion of important industrial fields such as metallurgy is extremely rapid.
The Imperial fertilizer production surged from 1.7 million tons in 1913 to 43 million tons in 1921, and the Imperial automobile production surged from 140,000 in 1913 to 380,000 in 1921, making it the second largest country in fertilizer and automobile industry after the United States.
, Agricultural machinery also increased from 4 million horsepower in 1913 to 3.4 billion horsepower in 1921. Although this indicator is only 1/7 of the same period in the United States, or even 1/3 of the United States in 1910, in the world
It is already one of the countries with large scale of agricultural mechanization.
The promotion of agricultural mechanization has a great effect, which is to save labor resources, which can increase the labor rate and total output of the agricultural population rapidly. The agricultural population can engage in other side jobs while planting crops. It increases the livestock industry and fruit forestry industry.
Together, increase the supply of vegetables, fish, eggs and meat.
With the localization of industrial machinery and the support of imperial fiscal and credit policies, small township enterprises have also begun to emerge to promote national township construction.
Everything comes from one problem, that is, the development of technology.
At this stage, the 201 project is not so much a creation, but rather a quick catch-up with world technology. As long as it is to achieve this goal, whether it is self-development, copying, or directly recruiting foreign experts to solve the replication in time.
, or directly introduce buyout patented technology from abroad in the name of national engineering, everything is for the empire to have advanced technology in the world in a short time.
Corresponding to the 201 project is the "National Industrial Exquisite Movement" proposed by Industrial Minister Zheng Tingxiang, which attempts to promote a reliable and effective industrial quality management system nationwide.
Although the empire exported a large number of industrial products during World War I, the quality was still clearly at a relatively low stage. The Chinese goods mentioned by the British in the past specifically refer to luxurious and exquisite porcelain, but now they refer to the cheap and rough Chinese goods in China.
industrial products.
Like Wang Yongjiang implements tough policies in the Agricultural Institute, the Ministry of Industry has adopted a similar qualification system to learn from Germany. It is mandatory to require skilled workers to receive vocational education and provide skilled workers with more qualification grading protection and enterprise process cultivation tax reduction policies.
, motivate enterprises to recruit and train many senior technicians.
However, if you want to improve the effectiveness of these tasks with time, the simple way is to directly recruit foreign experts and excellent technicians, hire them to work in factories, provide them with good treatment, and invite them to serve as faculty and staff in vocational and technical schools and secondary schools.
, fully absorb European technology.
in the country, a common name for the "National Industrial Superb Revolution" is "domestic product revolution".
The word revolution has already been a bit abused in the empire, but it is undeniable that it is indeed easy to use. As long as it is a revolutionary movement that can strengthen the country and enrich the people, it will always be a warm response.
In this era, the enthusiasm of Chinese people is very pure, at least more pure and simple than it was after a century. Many industrialists can even pursue quality and craftsmanship at all costs in responding to the tide of domestic product revolution.
In this passionate era, industry is always associated with a strong country, and most of the people who run industry come from the upper class and have many ambitions and hopes.
Project 201 is a special project in such an era. In order to catch up with foreign technology, the empire must have the technology of other powers, and the empire must even develop high-level technology. Most of the
Industrialists who devote themselves to this, scientific researchers are not for wealth and reputation, but for the dream of restoration of a powerful empire.
We are a generation who worked hard to restore China.
As long as our passion and confidence are not wasted or consumed by the warlords and rioters for no reason, we can create an achievement and miracle that belongs to the Chinese nation in this era.
Why can't Chinese people stand on the top of the world in the first half of the 20th century?
Yes, even in this year, after the founding of the Emperor of China, the total output value of the empire was only 1/3 of that of the United States, and the per capita was only 1/12. However, the empire is still developing rapidly, and the Chinese people's confidence is rising.
With strong self-esteem, patriotism and loyalty to the emperor, everything is so beautiful. As long as the government does not make mistakes and the emperor does not make mistakes, the Chinese people will be able to dominate the world within thirty years and stand at the top of all nations and countries.
The empire is flying forward and chasing, and now all it needs is a 20-year peaceful environment, that's all, but Song Biao is very worried about Japan, the eternal troublemaker.
When talking to Mei Yiqi about the progress of the 201 project, he always felt bad in his heart, and always felt that Japan's disaster would sooner or later bring great trouble to the empire on the issue of Papua Guinea.
This is obviously not a problem. Since World War I, Japan has sought various ways to obtain German Guinea. Japan has long been envious of the gold and copper mineral resources here, and Britain has also agreed to Japan's request.
After China occupied German Guinea, Japan never stopped competing and negotiating. From arrogance to negotiation, from negotiation to toughness, Japan's attitude changed several times. After the Washington Conference, Britain and the United States took compromise with Japan as Britain and the United States took
Japan's attitude towards policy and sympathy for Japan on this issue may become tougher again.
