Chapter 1083 The Industrial Miracle of Modernization (Second Update, Two-in-One)
What is Nanyang’s biggest advantage?
It is the miracle of Nanyang!
Nothing is more convincing than the Nanyang Miracle. The United States can say that we are developed, and the Soviet Union can say that we are awesome, but the problem is that they have been developing for decades, even hundreds of years. That is not strong and developed. Of course.
But what is the biggest feature of the Nanyang Miracle?
That's fast - after two four-year plans, Nanyang has become the world's third largest economy after the United States and the Soviet Union, and the most important thing is that Nanyang has developed on a blank basis.
Such an astonishing achievement has already blinded the eyes of the world. As the most beautiful boy in the world, how can he not be admired and admired?
So, in an instant, Hassan's heart was moved, and he asked:
"Are you willing to tell us this plan?"
"Not tell us this plan. You, but provide you with a complete solution!”
Li Guoren turned to look at Zhao Peiqi on the side and said:
"Director Zhao, otherwise, you can introduce it to them,"
"Okay, let me explain it."< br>
Zhao Peiqi said. As an official sent by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry, his responsibility is to explain to them the "National Modernization Plan" - this is a plan formulated by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry and several departments at the request of Your Excellency. Because his English level is high enough, he can talk directly to the other party. After all, during the trade dispute with the United States, he argued with American business officials in English.
“First of all, I want to ask, what can we do with 200 million US dollars!”
Zhao Peiqi said without waiting for the other party to answer.
“A miracle can be born—a modern industrial miracle!”
When hearing Zhao Peiqi say these words in a sensational tone, Li Guoren thought it was a salesman. In fact, , officials from the Ministry of International Trade and Industry actually played this role.
What is sales pitch?
Isn’t that just bragging!
Anyway, bragging doesn’t mean you have to pay taxes, so let’s brag.
A modern industrial miracle!
Although Zhao Peiqi hadn't explained it carefully, he could read an excited look on Hassan's face. Two hundred million US dollars... actually can't do anything, but the other party told him that it can bring about a modern industrial miracle!
If someone from other countries said this, Hassan would never believe it, but the person who said this is a Nanyang person!
Nanyang people - they are the people who are best at creating miracles!
Everything they create here is a miracle in itself!
"Sir, do you want to know about our "National Modernization Plan"? This may take you a long time."
"No problem, no problem, I want to know Yes, is your "national modernization plan" real? "
Hasan asked.
Faced with doubts, Zhao Peiqi said seriously:
"Sir, you can't doubt the credibility of a Nanyang person like this. You should know that Nanyang always keeps its promises, whether in the mall or in the international community!"
"Uh..."
< br>Hassan was a little embarrassed. What Zhao Peiqi said seemed to be true. Among other things, Nanyang's commitment to Israel and Hungary is well known. They made it and kept it, even if they were enemies of the Soviet Union.
Just thinking about it makes people envious. If Nanyang can promise to protect Iran, Iran will no longer have to worry about the threat from Russia... It seems that this can be fought for!
However, this kind of thing is not something that he needs to consider now. In the future, there may be opportunities in the future. Hassan believes that one day, the king will appoint him as the prime minister of the government, because the king needs someone to push forward. modernization of the country.
Is there a more suitable candidate besides myself?
At this time, Li Guoren said:
"Director Zhao, you should introduce our modernization plan to Chairman Hassan."
"Okay!"
Zhao Peiqi nodded and said.
"Chairman Hassan, as we all know, the concept of modernization is very broad and has too many cores. From an industrial system perspective, if it includes heavy industries such as aerospace, shipbuilding, and metallurgy, then let alone US$200 million, it would be US$10 billion. It’s totally not enough. The modernization plan we provide is to help an industrially underdeveloped country establish an industrial system that meets its basic production needs.”
We have never thought about building airplanes or cars, at least not yet!
Hassan has never thought about building any large-scale projects. After all, the reality is there. Iran can’t even build airplanes or cars, let alone bicycles. It’s just a dream. That too has boundaries. We have to do it from a realistic perspective, but in the future, Iran will definitely build airplanes and cars. Who knows? If you travel to Southeast Asia, the same goes for Iran!
Hasan continued what Zhao Peiqi said and asked:
"Mr. Zhao, can you introduce the industrial system you are talking about in detail and what industrial projects it includes?"
< br>
Nodding, Zhao Peiqi said:
"Absolutely. The industrial system I am talking about is a simplified one based on the needs of underdeveloped industrial areas, such as small steel plants, which can meet the basic construction needs. Small cement plants, cement, and steel are all indispensable basic materials in the country's modernization construction. Small machinery factories, and then small fertilizer plants. With fertilizers, agricultural output can be further increased. With these industrial projects, basically Being able to establish a basic industrial foundation in a region. In addition, we can also help you build power plants, textile factories, printing factories, food factories, etc. These factories are medium-sized and mainly produce consumer goods. "In fact, this is. What?
It is the "Five Small Industries" in the special period of Dongda University in another world. Those small factories and small industries based in county towns may seem backward, but they can definitely be called industries, especially for agriculture like Iran. For the country, these factories may not be advanced, but they are enough to allow it to step into the door of industrialization - at least you can touch a door frame, even if you can't touch it, you can still see it. And the results can be seen in a short time. After all, the construction cycle of a small factory is shorter, and the results can even be seen within a year.
Hasan silently recited the names of these projects mentioned by Zhao Peiqi. As the chairman of the Economic Committee, he naturally knew that cement, steel, fertilizers and even agricultural machinery were all lacking in Iran. , and Iran currently has similar industrial plans, but those plans...require large amounts of funds
After thinking about it, Hassan nodded and said:
"Mr. Zhao, I think these projects you mentioned are indeed the basic industries that a country needs most. If you own these enterprises, then basically It has achieved a certain degree of industrialization. However, you have always used "small". I want to know what size you mean by small. Can those small factories meet normal demand? "
< br>Faced with doubts, Zhao Peiqi said bluntly:
"Chairman Hassan, we can't become a fat man in one bite, small... It is based on both capital and market demand. , just like the fertilizer plant, Nanyang can provide the most advanced large-scale fertilizer production and equipment in the world. Its annual production capacity is a large-scale plant with an annual production capacity of 300,000 tons of synthetic ammonia and 480,000 to 520,000 tons of urea. But the problem is that Iran What is the annual demand for fertilizer? Such a large fertilizer equipment requires thousands of technicians. Can Iran provide the corresponding technicians? "
Faced with the rhetorical question, Hassan fell silent. Not to mention 300,000 tons, even the technical personnel needed for the currently planned 100,000-ton fertilizer plant cannot be found in Iran. This is why the project has been postponed to this year. Even if it is postponed to this year, Technical personnel also need to be hired from abroad. Not only that, the capital required to build a fertilizer plant is also huge.
This is also the reason that restricts Iran's development. The lack of funds and talents directly affects their construction, and there is only one way to solve the problem - hiring technical personnel from abroad. This is what they did in history. In order to support the country's industrialization, Iran hired tens of thousands of technicians from the United States and Europe. At its peak, including their families, there were nearly 100,000 Americans and Europeans living in Iran.
While these people brought modernization to Iran, the lifestyle they introduced also changed Iran to a certain extent - this was even the cause of the revolution, with foreign technicians occupying high positions.
Hassan said:
“Our fertilizer import volume last year was 70,000 tons, and it is expected that it may exceed 80,000 tons this year.”
“Okay, let’s do the math. ”
Zhao Peiqi said,
“The small fertilizer plant equipment we provide has a designed production capacity of 20,000 tons, which can meet 25% of your needs, and it requires only more than 40 technical personnel. , the others are ordinary workers. As long as they have a junior high school or even elementary school education, they can participate in basic production. I believe this is what you can provide. At the same time, its production capacity is completely within the acceptable range of the market. In this small After the fertilizer plant is put into operation, your technicians can be trained in this factory and then set up similar small fertilizer plants in other cities. By replicating this, you can have a fertilizer industry system that is completely your own in the future. "< br>
Hassan had a surprised look on his face:
"Mr. Zhao, when I hear you say this, I completely understand. What you said is absolutely correct. For us, as long as we have A fertilizer factory with an annual output of 20,000 tons is the foundation for establishing a fertilizer industry. There is no need for us to build a 100,000-ton factory. "
"At least there is no need for now!"
Zhao Peiqi continued:
“Let’s look at the machinery factory. As a country dominated by agriculture, you don’t need to establish a heavy industrial system now. Therefore, the machinery factory should produce small equipment that serves agriculture. , as well as meet some daily machinery maintenance needs. It can not only produce agricultural machinery, but also small tractors, electric motors and water pumps. The small machinery factory equipment we provide can exactly meet your needs for producing these products."
Experts from the Ministry of International Trade and Industry have even helped them compile a list of equipment for a machinery factory, explaining everything from how many pieces of equipment are needed to the building area of the workshop. Zhao Peiqi only needs to show the list to the other party.
“...After the machinery plant is completed, it will be able to produce 2,000 small four-wheel tractors, 1,000 three-wheel tractors and 3,000 tons of agricultural machinery every year, which will not only meet basic agricultural production needs, but also meet rural transportation needs Needed. "
At this time, Hassan and others were fascinated by this "national modernization plan" and admired it. As an official with a background in science and engineering, Hassan was able to fully understand everything the other party said, and knew that what he said was completely correct. Hassan was not an ambitious person, and he was very aware of Iran's shortcomings in industrial development.
Lack of money is not the most important thing. There is no money to borrow. The most important thing is that there is no talent. The plan proposed by the other party is precisely based on the "lack of talent". Because the scale is small, the number of technical personnel required is very limited. Even if it is difficult to meet the demand for a while, only a few foreign technical personnel need to be hired to meet the production requirements.
“Then there is the small steel factory, which has an output of less than 50,000 tons and mainly produces rebar for construction. In the early construction, the main use of steel was in the construction industry, and this is also The reason for building a small steel plant..."
While listening to the other party's introduction of the small steel plant project and investment, Hassan was completely conquered by the other party. There was no way. Who had seen it before? In this way, a primary industrial system can be established with only 200 million US dollars.
After Zhao Peiqi finished the introduction, Hassan quickly asked:
“I calculated that the total investment in these factories is only 100 million US dollars, so what is the other 100 million US dollars used for? Place? ”
"Of course it's the factory's infrastructure, which is also a big expense. Well, besides that, there's also a hydropower station,"
"Hydropower station? There's actually a hydropower station!"
Hassan The others opened their eyes wide as if they were listening to Arabian Night Talk.
“Yes, the development of agriculture is inseparable from irrigation, and irrigation needs to consider water conservancy construction, and hydropower stations are undoubtedly the best choice. It can not only meet irrigation needs, but also generate electricity to meet factory needs. production needs, so it is very necessary to build hydropower stations, which is also an indispensable energy link in the national modernization plan!"
As soon as Zhao Peiqi finished speaking, Hassan no longer hesitated, he said directly! Said rightly.
"Mr. Zhao, you don't need to introduce it in detail. I believe in your knowledge very much. Well, now please give us a good plan for Iran and see what industrial projects we need to build and how much it will cost. I believe , the plan you proposed to us must be very suitable for us."
Hasan said sincerely.
“Even if there is no loan from Nanyang, we will choose this plan. I believe that as long as this plan is implemented, a miracle will be born-a modern industrial miracle!”
