Chapter 204 Industrial Development

As a result, the more than 50,000 troops of the Zhenguo Army, which were reorganized into the Southern ** Army, gradually eliminated the hidden dangers that local troops may be unfaithful to the president. However, this process will be long-term and needs to be carried out slowly and excessively, which will easily cause resistance within the army, unnecessary troubles and internal unrest.

Time flies, and day by day is spent in a tense life. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, state institutions gradually started to operate smoothly, and all work is proceeding in an orderly manner. The most important changes in the country, in addition to the political system changing from a feudal monarchy to a bourgeois democratic system, education changes are also the most tremendous, followed by the development of industry, agriculture and national defense. However, the development of the following projects is very slow, and it will take some time to show great results.

A large number of industrial investment projects have also been launched one after another. The industrial categories involved are very complex, and civilian and military industries complement each other. However, in order to ensure national defense needs, Zhenhua's investment is almost dominated by military-industrial enterprises, while the development of civilian technology still depends on the power of national capitalists themselves. Li Tiancheng will temporarily invest very little in this area.

Judging from Zhenhua's large number of R&D centers and research institutes, almost all are projects closely related to the military industry. The achievements of the Automobile Research Institute can of course also develop the civilian field, but its scientific and technological investment is specifically designed for military industry, and civilians are just an accompanying result.

The China Dragon Coin was officially launched into the market after half a year after its founding. At this time, the ratio of dragon coins to US dollars was around 150 to 1. The value of 150 yuan dragon coins was equivalent to one dollar. One tael of silver could also be exchanged for 100 yuan dragon coins. People gradually began to accept this new currency. The circulation of this new banknote appeared in the streets and alleys, and the silver coins would gradually fade out of the Chinese market.

The design of the dragon coins is similar to that of traditional currencies. A serious avatar with Li Tiancheng's short hair is added on it, which is consistent with the tradition that every founding leader will appear on national currency. The dragon coins also adopts a variety of anti-counterfeiting technologies, such as invisible patterns, stripes and other anti-counterfeiting marks, and there are five or six types on it. It is more than enough to deal with the counterfeiting technology of this period.

The dragon currency is only circulated in the domestic market, and cannot flow into the international market like the British pound and the US dollar. It takes a long way to go to achieve the circulation status of the world currency. The country has not formulated a development schedule for this, and it is too early to move towards internationalization.

One year after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the development achievements in the industrial field have gradually seen certain results.

When the first bottle of refreshing Coke was launched in Europe and the United States, it attracted great attention from European and American consumers. This drink is very refreshing, delicious, sweet and delicious. It has the flavor of several fruits. It has some delicious food additives, which greatly surpasses traditional single-tasting beverages, such as wine and tea, ordinary orange juice, apple juice and other beverages, which can make up for the lack of taste in traditional market drinks.

This kind of Coke quickly caused a whirlwind in Europe and the United States. Just one month after it was launched, its sales volume in Europe exceeded 100,000 bottles, and subsequent sales volume rose sharply until the monthly sales volume of one million bottles, and the profit per bottle was as high as three dragon coins. The cost of each bottle of refreshing Coke was only about two yuan, and the profit margin exceeded one hundred%.

Since there was no product of the same type in the world at this time, the monopoly status and effect of refreshing Coke immediately appeared. It quickly monopolized the markets around the world, with an average profit margin of up to 15%, which is not surprising. The sales situation in some areas is better. A bottle of refreshing Coke is sold in China at four yuan, and Europe at more than five yuan. Some countries have even sold at more than eight yuan due to shortage of supply. This beverage immediately became a favorite drink for the courts and nobles of various countries. All countries treat it as a fashion product. Only the working class and aristocrats at the upper level often enjoy the taste of referring refreshing Coke, which ordinary people rarely taste once.

However, trade protection was very popular in this era. In order to protect the domestic beverage industry from being seized by refreshing cola too much, countries have added tariffs and quota restrictions on the sales of refreshing cola. For example, the UK has raised the entry tariff of refreshing cola to more than 50%, which has greatly restricted the sales of Cola, which costs up to eight yuan per bottle, in the UK.

People's incomes during this period were generally low. Although Europe seemed very developed, compared with later generations, it was actually similar to those in rural areas. The consumption level was limited, and few people could consume this fashionable drink frequently.

With the implementation of trade protection in various countries, the foreign sales rate of this beverage has gradually been controlled to be around one million bottles per month, with an annual profit of around fifty million dragon coins, that is, three million US dollars, or more than one million pounds.

The fate of other products is similar. As China's trade deficit with Britain and the United States quickly narrowed by more than 50%, countries have seen that Chinese products are about to have a strong impact on the global market. The trade deficit will soon become a surplus, and what will follow will be a huge trade surplus. If the world market is all open to China, the industrial development of various countries will be quickly interrupted, and the world will become the exclusive stage for China's industrial products. This is something that countries do not want to see. Therefore, the trade restriction policy on China's products will soon become an important measure for countries to protect their national industries and markets.

From a long-term perspective, the prosperity of the domestic market is the key, and industrial development will take a long time to go through.

Products that also caused a sensation in the European market include folding umbrellas, rice cookers, plastic lighters, various agricultural machinery, condoms, contraceptives, cold medicines, instant noodles, ham sausages and other practical products, involving all aspects of civilian products. The emergence of each product has caused a whirlwind around the world, and of course it is also restricted by trade protections from various countries.

A few products cannot be rejected by trade protection, such as the new antibiotic anti-inflammatory drugs penicillin and streptomycin, which have been in short supply, and the profit margin once exceeded 300%.

Penicillin is a pharmaceutical product that appeared a few years ago. Its market share is now as high as 90%. Its position in the world's medical market is supreme. Nowadays, whenever people in the world suffer from bacterial infections, the first thing they think of is the antibiotic drugs such as penicillin and streptomycin produced by China Zhenhua Pharmaceutical Company. Their effects are irreplaceable for a time and have saved the lives of millions of civilians.

Because of the irreplaceability of these commodities, the trade protection of various countries cannot be too strict. This is a fundamental interest in people's health. Countries cannot set too many obstacles to penicillin cyclones. They will only turn to protect their products unless they have the same type of products developed in their own countries.

Since the country has just been established, all government staff work very hard and the close cooperation of all departments of the state institutions has led to an unprecedented enthusiasm for working people in the country.

The clear and clear domestic politics, the integrity and dedication of the new government, the love for the people, care for the people's lives, helping people get rid of poverty and become rich, helping farmers increase grain production, helping workers train and worker training, free education system, subsidy system for poor students, and relief system for hungry people. These new policies have made the people feel an unprecedented new atmosphere.

The common people who have been in oppressed for thousands of years and have lived in a difficult situation have felt the warmth that spreads throughout the society for the first time. The equal status of themselves and government officials. The people's mental outlook is immediately very different from before. The laughter and joy gradually replaced sorrow and worries, and the relationship between the people and the entire social relations have become much more harmonious. The social cancers that have previously existed widely existed, such as theft, robbery, **, **, opium smoking, and children and women, were greatly curbed for a while. People all shamed against violations of laws and regulations, hoping to gain the respect of the society, support themselves, and make a living through legitimate channels.

The industrial and agricultural development of the new China country in the first year has shown a new trend of great strides.

The total agricultural output value has increased by more than 10%. Because hybrid rice has not been widely promoted at this time, the results of the first year are far from enough. The vast number of regions will gradually promote hybrid rice planting in the next year. It is expected that in three to five years, the national rice production will double, the problem of self-sufficiency in major grain varieties will be basically solved, and the phenomenon of starvation will be basically eliminated.

Industrial investment maintained unprecedented prosperity, with industrial investment exceeding 10 billion yuan, close to 100 million US dollars, and the total industrial output value of the whole year was 1.5 billion US dollars, reaching more than one-third of Japan, one-fifth of the UK, and one-percent of the US, and the total industrial output value increased by about 50% throughout the year. This development speed maintained the original development speed of Zhenhua Group.

In 1912, the total output value of Zhenhua Group's total industrial output value increased from 50% to more than 65%. The total output value of the fourteen provinces was about 50 million US dollars, and the total output value of Zhenhua also reached more than 50 million US dollars. The total output value of the fourteen provinces was 100 million US dollars. Industrial production activities were mainly concentrated in Shanghai and its surrounding areas. Now Zhenhua's total output value has reached 90 million US dollars, an increase of more than 70% over the same period last year, which has attracted another year of high development.

At this time, the huge industrial investment effect in the past year has not yet appeared. It is expected that the national industrial development speed will exceed more than 60% from the second year, maintaining an unprecedented rapid development trend. This development speed is also much higher than the development speed of Europe, the United States and other countries...
