Chapter 352 The Unspeakable Concealment
z
Heng was very nervous. After all, when he reached his level, time was his own.
The next morning, I went to the State Council to discuss work matters. In the afternoon, I made an appointment with Director Zhang to meet, and in the evening, I was invited by Boss Zhu to have dinner together.
The work matters are mainly about the development of Panshi's recent careers. Regarding this content, there has been a relatively comprehensive report material, and many of the problems were personally verified and sorted out by Fan Heng.
However, after hearing Panshi's development, the leaders in charge of the State Council also had some regrets in addition to admiring it. After all, this development model is difficult to replicate. Unless there are rich people like Fan Wubing willing to invest, if Fan Wubing did not have the strong support of Panshi, there would be no such developed basic conditions as now, there would be no such intensive large enterprises, and it would be even more impossible to attract so many foreign investments.
According to Panshi's incomplete statistics, in the first three months of this year, Panshi's foreign investment projects involved more than US$500 million. As a small-scale emerging prefecture-level city, this is a very impressive achievement.
When Director Zhang met with Fan Heng, he specifically ordered Fan Wubing to come too, so the three of them met in Director Zhang's new office.
Since he decided to set up the General Equipment Department, Director Zhang has changed his military uniform. This time when Fan Wubing saw him, the three Venus stars on his shoulders were particularly dazzling.
After seeing Director Zhang, Fan Wubing immediately went up and snatched the golden stars with his hands without saying a word.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?" Director Zhang immediately covered his epaulette with his hands and turned around to avoid it.
"I'll see if it's pure gold-" Fan Wubing said with a smile.
"Is this thing easy to try?" Director Zhang said with some confusion.
The senior management decided to establish the General Equipment Department. It is a major measure taken to implement the Military Strategic Policy of the Military Commission in the new era, adhere to quality building of the military, strengthen the military, adapt to the development of the socialist market economy and the reform of state institutions, and unswervingly follow the path of elite troops with Chinese characteristics.
The establishment of the General Equipment Department is also of far-reaching and great significance for further strengthening the centralized and unified leadership of the Central Military Commission over the entire army's weapons and equipment construction sites and promoting national defense and military modernization.
The system of the People's Liberation Army's three headquarters will be broken for 40 years. The beginning of weapons and equipment in organizational regulations is as important as military training, political work, and logistics support.
Before the establishment of the General Equipment Department, the specific development direction of our army's weapons and equipment areas, long-term planning and other work adopted the planned economic model. And with the requirements of our army's weapons and equipment construction sites in the future, the overlapping and parallel management system of multiple departments in charge of national defense science and technology and weapons and equipment also restricted the development of the weapons and equipment industry.
Director Zhang personally poured the father and son and cooked tea for himself. Then he said to Fan Heng. "It's too busy recently. We have fewer opportunities to meet. If you didn't go to Beijing to report on your work this time, I don't know when I'll see you."
The relationship between the two was established when they met in Guangzhou. It was because Fan Wubing came up with the design intention of a snowstorm torpedo that Director Zhang had the opportunity to get to know Fan Heng and get to know him in depth. Over the years, the relationship between the two families gradually developed from working relationships to relatives, which was a bit unexpected.
After all, whether it is the bond between them or the guy Fan Wubing?
Fan Heng smiled and said, "We are all serving the country. Just call if you have something to do or not. There are still opportunities to meet. People are more important than knowing each other, so it is not necessary to meet."
Director Zhang is the preparatory director of the General Equipment Department. At this time, he has already taken the rank of general and is about to become the head of the four headquarters who run side by side with the General Staff, General Political Department, and General Hou. His future is also estimable, and in the future development of the army, the General Equipment Department will also play a greater role.
"In fact, this time I made an appointment with you. In addition to personal friendship, there is also something to talk about in business." Director Zhang said to Fan Heng.
Fan Heng asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
As a local administrative official, I don’t have much interaction with the military, which means I often go to the garrison to send condolences when I support the army. Apart from that, I really don’t have much interaction, especially when Director Zhang solemnly wants to talk to him about things, which makes Fan Heng feel a little difficult to understand.
Fan Wubing replied casually, "What else is there? It must be that Minister Zhang General Zhang needs you to work for him."
Director Zhang waved his hand helplessly and said to Fan Wubing, "I originally wanted to see you, but now I find that finding you is just a mess for myself. You might as well go out and come back in half an hour. Then we will be almost done with our affairs."
"No problem, I'm not doing well yet
Here, this opportunity is rare." Fan Wubing laughed.
In fact, what Director Zhang wants to talk to Fan Heng is a little enlightened in his heart.
After the test of the Gulf War, the country is currently deeply moved by the new weapons and attack methods used by Western countries such as the United States in wars. From a military perspective, the Gulf War revealed to mankind the changes brought to the battlefield by new technologies since World War II. It shows the diversity and complexity of modern wars. Simple steel wars have become history, and new technologies and new equipment dominate the outcome of the war. Electronic technology is widely used to all soldiers and services, allowing the allies to achieve the expected military and political goals at a very small cost.
From a strategic perspective, while mobilizing troops, the United States isolates Iraq internationally and blocks it, making it unable to rely on imported military equipment and spare parts to engage in a protracted war, and uses its powerful air force to frequently attack Iraq's strategic goals in depth, thus greatly weakening Iraq's comprehensive national strength.
In the battle, electronic technology was used to interfere with the enemy's communication and command system, making the enemy's various arms and legions blind and deaf. They also used the air force's advantage to continuously attack them, weakening the enemy's combat power to the minimum. After the ground troops were put into battle in the later stage, they used elite armored troops to assault the enemy's depth, divided and surrounded the enemy's heavy army, and ultimately caused the most elite Iraqi unit, the Republic Guard, to suffer a devastating blow.
Tactical attention is paid to the coordination of various military branches and make full use of our own advantages. What is particularly eye-catching is that we successfully intercepted Iraq's Scud missiles with Patriot missiles, greatly boosting the morale of the troops of many countries and strengthening the confidence of the allies to win.
From all the above directions, we can see that the outcome of modern wars is no longer determined by military strength and unilaterally, but should be politically supported by the international community, with technological and equipment advantages, flexible and changeable tactics, and the strengths of oneself and the weaknesses of the enemy, so as to achieve consistency in battle and strategy, and ultimately achieve its political, military and economic goals.
And there is another important point, that is, due to historical reasons, most domestic military-industrial enterprises have lagged behind in development, and many enterprises will go bankrupt if they do not operate well, and they will not be able to provide the army with various military equipment that meets the conditions for modern combat.
Under such circumstances, the country has the idea of establishing a general equipment department. On the one hand, it is to reintegrate domestic military industrial resources, survive the fittest, extract the essence, and on the other hand, it is to completely separate the civilian and military parts, get rid of the burden and go into battle lightly, strengthen scientific research and design and manufacturing capabilities, and provide advanced modern military equipment guarantees for the army.
However, the accumulated problems are difficult to recover, and the problems of state-owned enterprises are very difficult to solve. Even the problems among military-industrial enterprises cannot be solved in a day or two. Director Zhang also needs time to adjust the existing military resources at this time, especially reintegrating some large military-industrial enterprises to develop advanced military support industries that meet the conditions of modern warfare based on this.
Panshi has had many large military-industrial enterprises in history. Although it is a bit backward now, the cadre and staff team that has been formed over the years is still sound. I believe that this is what Director Zhang wants to talk to Fan Heng. After all, these things cannot be separated from the strong support of the local government.
Half an hour later, Fan Wubing returned to Director Zhang's office and found that both of them were sitting there scratching their heads with some worries.
"I said it's not true? What can make you two so worried?" Fan Wubing said in surprise.
There is indeed a reason for the two people's worries, but the reasons are not worthy of being told by outsiders.
After Fan Wubing's curious questioning, Director Zhang explained the reason, which was indeed related to military-industrial enterprises, but it was not consistent with what Fan Wubing imagined to develop military-industrial enterprises in Panshi.
Because Director Zhang told Fan Wubing that because there are too many foreign-funded enterprises, Panshi is no longer suitable for developing high-end and cutting-edge military industries, he found Fan Henglai this time for money.
"The money problem?" Fan Wubing became even more strange. Could it be that the investment in military or scientific research funds was insufficient?
Due to the implementation of the tax sharing system in the past two years, the financial situation of the central government has improved greatly. There will be no problem of insufficient military expenditure at this time, right?
"It's about transfers-" Director Zhang said in a concealment, giving Fan Wubing the feeling that he wanted to say but he was still willing to stop.
It seems that it is a bit indescribable! Fan Wubing asked about the details in curiously, and Director Zhang told the reason.
Chapter completed!
