Chapter 293 Speed up, speed up! (Fourth update, please subscribe)
Half an hour later, a black Mercedes-Benz drove into the Governor's Office. As soon as the car stopped in front of the porch, Paul Conor got out of the car. Then he walked straight in.
As the director of the Borneo Construction Planning Office, the agency he leads is currently the largest government agency in Borneo - with more than 700 employees, most of whom are experts in various fields. It was this institution that dominated the construction of Borneo's industrial economy.
In the past year, German experts in this agency have formulated a "Four-Year Construction Plan" based on the actual situation in Borneo in accordance with the planning and implementation of the German Four-Year Plan. The plan aims to build basic industries for Borneo. Once the plan is completed, Borneo will complete its transformation from an agricultural country to an industrial country.
Participating in the formulation of the plan were not only experts in the German economy and industry, but also officials from the German "Four-Year Plan Central Office". As the head of the agency, Paul Koner was originally from Germany. Four-Year Plan Central Office Director.
Not only scientists and engineers, but even exiled Nazi officials could also display their value in Borneo. This is how people can make the best use of themselves.
Paul is even on the war criminals list and is wanted by the Allied War Criminals Tribunal, but this does not prevent him from being a senior official in Borneo and in charge of economic and industrial construction.
As a former high-ranking Nazi official, Paul is very competent at his job. A person who can promote Germany's four-year plan step by step without the interference of Goering and other Nazi agencies has absolutely first-rate work ability.
It is precisely because of the existence of this group of experienced former Nazi officials that Li Yian only needs to grasp the general direction in the construction of Borneo, thus saving a lot of energy.
When Paul walked into the room, Li Yian had already put the fifth edition of the draft construction plan outline on his desk.
"Paul, please sit down."
Li Yian said with a kind smile at Paul.
"I asked you to come here because I have something to consider. I need you to provide some opinions to make a decision."
"Sir, what opinions do you need me to provide? ?”
“Construction!”
Li Yian pushed the draft in front of him and said.
“Look, now the Americans have dropped the atomic bomb on Japan. This weapon will definitely make Japan surrender. If my estimate is not bad, it should be within the next week. I was watching carefully just now. I took a look at this draft, which is very detailed. It should be said that if it is realized, Borneo will jump from the current poverty to a A truly industrial country, even one of the top industrialized countries in the world!"
Li Yian is not exaggerating, but is telling a fact. According to the construction plan of the "Four-Year Plan", when the plan is completed, In the future, Borneo will become the largest industrialization in Asia. Well, there is no longer anything to do with Japan. Japan will definitely be emptied out!
"My question now is...can we implement this plan by the end of this year or the beginning of next year!"
Faced with Li Yi'an's question, Paul thought for a moment and said.
"Sir, you should know that no matter what kind of construction is carried out, there must be a certain foundation. This foundation involves all aspects. In the past year, our industrial planning was basically based on the next "four years" "Plan" mainly focuses on the infrastructure construction required. After all, cement, steel and other building materials are necessary for industrial economic construction. Although currently, our progress is half a year ahead of schedule, but due to After careful consideration, my suggestion is to implement it as soon as January next year..."
In the next ten minutes, Paul explained the prerequisites for the implementation of the plan one by one, and finally emphasized.
"Sir, we must first have a certain industrial foundation before we can fully implement the construction."
Faced with Paul's answer, Li Yian's brows furrowed. I really want to make a leap forward. "Well..."
Li Yian said after thinking for a moment and thinking about the operating model of industrial parks in later generations.
“Can we build the factory first? Yes, that is to build the factory building first. Most factory buildings are actually universal. As long as the factory building is built, the rest is to install the equipment. As for equipment, we still have tens of thousands of equipment in North Africa, and after Japan surrenders, we can go to Japan to dismantle it. In this way, the construction of the factory and the dismantling and transportation of the equipment can be carried out at the same time. This should save a lot of time. ”
What is the model of future industrial parks?
Isn’t it just to build the factory first? Build the factory first and then attract investment. Manufacturing companies can install equipment directly in the existing factory, thus saving a lot of infrastructure time.
Then Li Yian continued.
"Of course, some large professional factories, such as metallurgy and cement companies, will definitely need a lot of professional equipment and professional factories. We can also start advanced factories according to the type of factory. The main bodies of these factories are Almost, you can also complete most of the infrastructure first, and then make appropriate adjustments after the equipment arrives..."
Later, Li Yian explained.
“Now that the war is about to end, after the war, the most important thing is to develop the economy. If our factory can be built one month ahead of schedule, then we can enter the market one month ahead of schedule. This market is not just It’s not just for Borneo, but for the whole world, so I hope it can be done earlier. The question is, how to advance these 817 industrial projects in an orderly manner!”
The key projects among the 817 industrial projects! There are 179, which is more than the Tangshan First Five-Year Plan. What is the extra? They are just some key livelihood projects. After all, there is only one textile factory in Borneo, so we cannot rely on imports even for cloth.
In fact, there are fewer heavy industry projects than in the First Five-Year Plan, such as no heavy tractor factory and no tank factory. These projects have been placed in long-term planning because Borneo does not have too urgent defense needs.
However, there are two planned shipyards, and they are very large. Compared with tanks, ocean-going merchant ships are more important to Borneo. Even after the war is over, a large number of Liberty ships will be purchased, and Borneo must also build Developing a huge shipbuilding industry is inevitable for an island country, and this means adapting measures to local conditions.
As for the tank... it's really not important.
These German experts have formulated construction plans based on local conditions. Of course, Li Yian also participated in it to guide the general direction. This general direction is "building a country through trade", which is foreign trade.
After thinking for a moment, Paul said.
“This requires re-adjustment of the plan. We must include projects in advance and try our best to turn the overall plan into a progressive implementation. Well, basic projects will be carried out first, and some projects will be carried out by the end of the year. Or if we implement it next year, I’m afraid we can only do so much.”
As the former director of Germany's four-year plan, Paul knew very well what the leader's will was, and what he needed was to realize the leader's will, which was related to whether he could gain the leader's trust.
“But I will push this forward as much as possible.”
“Well, good!”
Li Yian said.
"Let's do it!"
