Chapter 2425

The differences between paper planning and practice are of course inevitable, and when various departments of Haihan strive for budgets, they often exaggerate some planned projects. On paper, the construction cycle is shortened and expectations are increased.

Benefits and avoiding talking about possible risks are often used methods. By the time problems begin to be exposed in the implementation stage, the sunk costs are often too high to stop, so we can only bite the bullet and deal with them.

The project continues.

Of course, the Ministry of Industry's plan for the petrochemical industry also had these problems. Wang Hui had been tricked by Tao Donglai without even realizing it. Although Lu Zhanpeng was aware of it, he couldn't interrupt the conversation and could only count on Tao Dong.

Don't let this cause you to have too many negative views on the Miaoli project.

In fact, Tao Donglai doesn't think there are too many problems with the Ministry of Industry's plan. There are some discrepancies in some small places, which are still within the acceptable range. Of course, it would be best if all links could be made more perfect.

But that's it.

"Is it possible to further shorten the time required for the industrial upgrading process?" Tao Donglai asked.

Wang Hui responded: "This... I'm afraid it's a bit difficult..."

As he spoke, he looked at Lu Zhanpeng. He was about to leave office, and Lu Zhanpeng, who took over the job, could respond positively to this kind of problem.

Lu Zhanpeng also knew that this problem could not be circumvented, so he took the initiative to respond: "Mr. Tao, it is not impossible to shorten the time required, but there are also some specific difficulties for us. The main thing is the personnel arrangement. Our

Most of the technical staff are in Sanya, and here they are mainly industrial workers. Whether it is me or others who are responsible for the technical upgrading work here, they will face a serious shortage of manpower, so there may be actual needs.

The time is longer than expected. But due to national conditions, it is unlikely that we will transfer all the technical personnel from Sanya here."

Lu Zhanpeng’s words are not to shirk responsibility. They are indeed the current reality in Haihan Kingdom. Many time travelers engaged in technical work are not willing to leave the superior living environment in Sanya and settle in areas with relatively difficult conditions for a long time. Otherwise, Miaoli’s

There is no need for local officials to set a one-year term, and relevant technical personnel will take turns to serve here.

In fact, everyone is aware of this problem, but no one can come up with a good solution. Of course, the Executive Committee can order the transfer of personnel to Miaoli to contribute, but if mandatory transfer is implemented, good results may not be obtained.

Now, the current practice of rotating stations in Miaoli was a compromise that was reluctantly achieved after repeated discussions among all parties. If we want to make changes, we may have to face a lot of chaos.

After listening to this, Tao Donglai pondered: "Human resources is indeed a big problem... At present, we can probably only alleviate the demand for talents by cultivating relevant technical personnel. You have to work hard and lead more

With some apprentices, perhaps one or two generations later, this situation can be effectively alleviated."

In view of the current situation, it is difficult for Tao Donglai to remain optimistic about the improvement of this situation. Moreover, similar situations do not only occur in the petrochemical industry, but also exist in most fields except the military. Tao Donglai and others

Before traveling, I had a lot of ideas about how to transfer the various privileges held by travelers to the hands of naturalized citizens. I was also worried that many travelers would be unwilling to give up their rights, or that they would form separate systems in overseas colonies.

situation. But no one expected that among the 400 to 500 people who participated in the time-travel operation, only about one-tenth of them were willing to take the initiative to leave Sanya and go out and explore.

This has led to the lack of civil and technical officials in most of Haihan's overseas colonies, and they have to be filled by military generals, who are responsible for military and political affairs. Some senior positions in overseas colonies are automatically filled by naturalized officials. In these areas

There is no power distribution problem that Haihan's senior officials once worried about - most of the specific work of local governance is currently carried out by naturalized officials.

Affairs in civil affairs, trade, culture and education are fine. These jobs are similar in ancient times and modern times. It cannot be said that the technical threshold is too high. As long as you have a little training and remember the various rules and regulations formulated by Haihan, you can handle things according to the rules. But the threshold for technical officials is

It's relatively high, such as in infrastructure, agricultural technology, petrochemicals, mining, machinery and other fields. If you want to be qualified for the position of regional director, you probably won't be able to meet the standard with just three to five months of training.

The vast majority of current naturalized technical officials can only deal with general problems. When encountering major matters or projects with relatively high technical requirements, they can often only wait for the travelers to make a decision, or even go to the site in person to direct the problem in order to solve the problem. For example,

If Liu Shanxia does not come to preside over the next series of infrastructure projects to be started in the Miaoli area, the actual construction effects of these projects may be greatly reduced, and even insurmountable engineering problems may arise in some projects, such as crossing the Houlong River.

Liu Shanxia’s foremen were unable to come up with a corresponding construction plan for the reinforced concrete bridge over the Yangtze River.

The same is true for Miaoli's petrochemical industry. Of course, Wang Hui and Lu Zhanpeng each have apprentices, but the problem is that it is difficult for them to pass on all the professional knowledge they have mastered to apprentices who do not have a solid foundation in just a few years.

Even if a person knows the production process of oil extraction and refining, and has mastered the various mechanical equipment used in the oil extraction area, he or she only knows what is happening and does not know why it is happening. There is still a long way to go to reach the professional level possessed by Wang Hui and Lu Zhanpeng.

The technological upgrading of the petrochemical industry means the use of more advanced technologies. This is an area that the apprentices have never been exposed to. They can only follow instructions and the places where they can help are very limited.

Tao Donglai estimates that it will take a long time for these technical officials to take charge of their own affairs. At this stage, they can still only rely on time travelers to continue to play the leading role. Lu Zhanpeng's answer has basically confirmed that the petrochemical project is unlikely to achieve the rapid progress that Tao Donglai expected.

Although helpless, this is an indisputable fact at the moment. No matter how ambitious the top executives of the executive committee are, they cannot break the objective laws.

Just when Tao Donglai was ready to accept the reality, Wang Hui took the initiative to propose a solution: "Maybe I can stay for a while and help Lu Zhanpeng complete the preliminary preparations. This can at least save some time."

.”

Lu Zhanpeng said happily: "It would be great if you could stay. Then the work efficiency will definitely be much better than if I work alone!"

Although Tao Donglai didn't think that if the two of them stayed in Miaoli at the same time, one plus one would be more effective than two, he would definitely be happy to see Wang Hui's willingness to extend his service and stay to help. As for whether Wang Hui's doing so was beneficial.

Tao Donglai didn't care about any selfish motives. However, Tao Donglai still wanted to explain everything that needed to be said, lest Wang Hui think that he had suffered a loss in the future.

Tao Donglai asked: "I heard that your family has moved away from Miaoli. If you plan to stay, what will your family do?"

Wang Hui said: "At this point, we can only let them return to Sanya first. But Mr. Tao, I have extended my working period in Miaoli, so should my vacation after work be extended as well?"

Tao Dong agreed immediately: "That's no problem. If you stay here for one more week, you will get an extra day off afterwards. You will also receive a lot of various benefits and subsidies during this time, is that okay?"

Since Wang Hui took the initiative and Tao Donglai was willing to accept it, the two parties quickly agreed on the terms and decided to extend Wang Hui's working hours in Miaoli, and the treatment he enjoyed would continue to be the current standard. However, the original work handover process

Still unchanged, as soon as Wang Hui's term expired, Lu Zhanpeng took over as local official.

Tao Donglai spent half a day visiting the local petrochemical industry and listened to some of Wang Hui and Lu Zhanpeng’s ideas and plans for industrial upgrading. After lunch, Tao Donglai went to Liu Shanxia’s workplace to meet with him to discuss local issues.

Some details of infrastructure projects. Compared with the petrochemical industry, that is Tao Donglai's old profession, and he can also give some valuable guidance.

"You're willing to stay and help, it's not just for my sake, right?"

After Tao Donglai left, there were no outsiders around, so Lu Zhanpeng directly asked Wang Hui his questions. He could think of the general reason why Wang Hui asked to stay, but he still wanted to hear the other party confess on his own. With Wang Hui's

Due to his temper, he believed that the other party would not find any excuses to excuse himself.

Wang Hui nodded and responded: "It's not easy to come here. Of course I also want to do some big things that can be passed down to future generations. However, due to the conditions here, many things can only be thought of and cannot be realized at all. But this time the Ministry of Industry

It is indeed a rare opportunity to take the lead in industrial upgrading. I think I can help a little by staying. If I can make some achievements, I will have more bragging rights for future generations. Mr. Tao happened to be here too, so I directly

If you apply with him, you don’t have to report to Sanya anymore.”

Lu Zhanpeng smiled and said, "You are really thoughtful!"

Lu Zhanpeng didn't mind that Wang Hui would share the credit if he stayed. In some aspects, he was actually very similar to Wang Hui. He also focused on technology and was not very good at running other aspects. As for local officials, he was even more of an amateur.

Wang Hui is willing to stay for a while longer, which means that Lu Zhanpeng can have more time to familiarize himself with various local affairs, and his tenure can be a little more relaxed.

Moreover, Wang Hui is also a good professional. It is also a good thing for Lu Zhanpeng to have one more person to share the heavy work. The executive committee hopes that the implementation process in Miaoli can be consistent with the plan, and Lu Zhanpeng can do it alone.

You can't do it if you work hard, but with Wang Hui's help, the hope of success will be greater.

Tao Donglai announced to the three of them in the evening that day that he would leave Miaoli the next day and continue his journey north. However, the circumstances of his visit to Miaoli required the three to keep it secret for the time being, and it would not be made public until at least three months later.

Even Lu Zhanpeng, who came to Miaoli by boat with him, didn't know much about Tao Donglai's itinerary and destination. But after hearing what he said, the three people here understood that Tao Donglai might have other secrets on his trip north.

For higher-level tasks, the itinerary must be kept secret for safety reasons. Even if you agree solemnly, you will ensure that local personnel who know Tao Donglai's whereabouts in the past two days will also implement the same confidentiality order.

"Everyone, no matter where we are or what kind of work we are doing, we must remember that what we do today may affect the historical trend thousands of years later. And the reason why we are here in this time and space

, is to change the historical development process here. When to go with the trend and when to go against the trend, it is all based on the interests of our country. And which step you can take depends on your respective abilities.

That’s a lot of effort.”

After Tao Dong said this, he raised his wine glass and motioned for everyone to join in a toast. As for how everyone interprets his words, it depends on the individual's destiny. People who just want to live a peaceful life will not be able to live a peaceful life in Haihan at this stage.

Under the current development trend, it is definitely okay to be a rich man and live the second half of his life like an aristocrat. But if you want to take a chance and strive for the treatment of leaving a name in history, then you may not live too comfortably.

Although Tao Donglai is the head of the executive committee and has almost enjoyed the treatment of a head of state for many years, when something big happens, he will have to leave his comfort zone in Sanya and go overseas to deal with problems. He also hopes that those around him will

Colleagues can have the same sense of responsibility and consciousness as themselves and try their best to complete every task.

Regarding the various conditions and external support required for the development and construction of Miaoli, Tao Donglai has actually made a lot of arrangements. Before coming to Miaoli, he had had a secret meeting with Xu Xinsu in Zhangzhou and exchanged views on the current international situation facing the Ming Dynasty.

At the same time, Xu Xinsu was required to provide Miaoli with various materials needed for development and construction. After all, compared to places like Penghu, Kaohsiung, and Chicken Coop, Fujian's products are much richer and can fully supply Miaoli's needs.

However, the Miaoli area, or even the entire island of Taiwan, was not the focus of Tao Dong's trip, so he only stayed in Miaoli for two days. After getting to know the local situation, he was ready to leave for his next stop. Miaoli is next.

How to develop, how to carry out resettlement and industrial upgrading at the same time, from Tao Dong's point of view, it is all a matter for these three local officials.

You must know that there are many overseas colonies in Haihan, and often only one person serves as a local official, and he can still manage them in an orderly manner. If the three of them can't even do this job well, it means that their abilities are lacking after all. If they want to be delegated in the future,

If you take on such a heavy responsibility, you must consider it carefully.

In the early morning of the next day, Tao Donglai did not allow them to be sent far away. He took his subordinates out of the oil production area, took a transportation boat to the seaside dock, and then set off on an official ship. Two warships and a supply ship also accompanied the official ship.

Let’s leave Miaoli together and continue heading north.
