Chapter 352: Unspeakable Secret
Heng's time is very tight. After all, as a leader at his level, time is 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. In the evening, I went to have dinner together at the invitation of Boss Zhu.
Regarding work matters, we mainly talk about the recent development of Panshi's various undertakings. Regarding this aspect, we have already had a relatively comprehensive report material, and many of the issues were verified and sorted out by Fan Heng himself.
However, after hearing about the development of Panshi, the leaders in charge of the State Council felt a little regretful in addition to admiration. After all, this development model is difficult to copy. Unless a wealthy man like Fan Wubing is willing to invest, if there is no Fan Wubing, Without the strong support of Wuyi Zai Panshi, it would be impossible to have such developed basic conditions, nor to have such a dense concentration of large-scale enterprises, nor to attract so much foreign investment.
According to Panshi's incomplete statistics, in the first three months of this year, the funds involved in Panshi's foreign investment projects exceeded US$500 million. As a small emerging prefecture-level city, this is a very impressive achievement.
When Director Zhang met with Fan Heng, he specifically asked Fan Wubing to come over, so the three of them met in Director Zhang's new office.
Ever since he decided to establish the General Armament Department, Director Zhang had changed into military uniforms. When Fan Wubing saw him this time, the three gold stars on his shoulders were particularly dazzling.
After Fan Wubing saw Director Zhang, without saying a word, he immediately stepped forward to pick out the gold stars with his hands.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?" Director Zhang immediately covered his epaulette with his hand and turned around to avoid it.
"Let me see if it's pure gold-" Fan Wubing said with a smile.
"Is this a good place to try?" Director Zhang said, somewhat dumbfounded.
The top management decided to establish the General Armament Department. It is to implement the Military Strategic Guidelines of the Central Military Commission for the new era. Adhere to building the army with quality and strengthening it with science and technology. Adapt to the requirements of the development of socialist market economy and the reform of national institutions. This is a major measure taken to unswervingly follow the path of elite troops with Chinese characteristics.
The establishment of the General Armament Department will further strengthen the centralized and unified leadership of the Central Military Commission over the construction of weapons and equipment for the entire military. Promote national defense and military modernization. It also has far-reaching and significant significance.
The three-headquarters system that has existed for 40 years in the People's Liberation Army will be broken. Weapons and equipment work began to be as important as military training, political work, and logistics support in terms of organizational regulations.
Before the establishment of the General Armament Department.
The specific development direction and long-term planning of our military's weapons and equipment are based on the planned economy model. and. With the future high-tech war, there will be requirements for the construction of weapons and equipment for our army. The overlapping and parallel management systems of multiple departments in charge of national defense science and technology and weapons and equipment also constrain the development of the weapons and equipment industry.
Director Zhang personally poured the tea he had brewed for the father and son. Then he said to Fan Heng. "Things have been too busy recently. There are far fewer opportunities for us to meet. If you hadn't gone to the capital to report on your work this time, I don't know when we would be able to meet."
The friendship between the two was established when they met in Guangzhou. It was because Fan Wubing came up with the design intention of a blizzard torpedo that Director Zhang had the opportunity to get acquainted with Fan Heng and get to know each other in depth. In the following years, , the relationship between the two families has gradually developed from a working relationship to a relative, which is a bit unexpected.
After all, the link between them is Fan Wubing.
Fan Heng said with a smile, "We are all serving the country. If you have anything to do, just call us. There are still opportunities to meet. It's important to know each other. It's not necessary to meet in person."
Director Zhang is the preparatory head of the General Armament Department. He has already achieved the rank of general at this time and will soon become the head of the fourth headquarters that will keep pace with the three headquarters of the General Staff, the General Political Department, and the General Logistics Department. His future prospects can be estimated. , and in the future development of armaments, the General Armament Department will also play a greater role.
"Actually, this time I'm meeting with you. In addition to personal friendship, I also have some business matters to discuss." Director Zhang said to Fan Heng.
Fan Heng asked curiously, "What is it?"
As a local administrative official, I don't have much interaction with the military. I usually go to the station to give out condolences when I support the army. Other than that, I really don't have much interaction, especially at this time, Director Zhang solemnly said: Fan Heng found it a bit difficult to understand when he had to talk to himself about things.
Fan Wubing casually replied from the side, "Is there anything else? It must be Minister Zhang and General Zhang who need you to do work for him."
Director Zhang waved his hand helplessly and said to Fan Wubing, "I wanted to see you at first, but now I realize that asking you to come here is simply adding trouble to myself. You might as well go out for a walk and come back in half an hour. By then our matters will be almost settled.”
"No problem, I haven't recovered yet
Coming down here, this opportunity is rare. "Fan Wubing laughed for a while.
In fact, Fan Wubing was somewhat aware of what Director Zhang wanted to discuss with Fan Heng.
After the test of the Gulf War, the domestic public is deeply touched by the new weapons and attack methods used by the United States and other Western countries in the war. From a purely military perspective, the Gulf War revealed to mankind the changes that new technologies have brought to the battlefield since the Second World War. It shows the diversification and complexity of modern warfare. The simple steel war has become history. New technologies and new equipment dominate the outcome of the war. Electronic technology is widely used in various arms and services, enabling the allies to achieve their expected military and political goals at a very low cost.
From a strategic point of view, while the United States is deploying troops, it is isolating Iraq internationally. It blockaded it, making it unable to rely on imported military equipment and spare parts to carry out a protracted war, and used its powerful air force to frequently and continuously attack Iraq's strategic targets in depth, thereby greatly weakening Iraq's comprehensive national strength.
In battle, electronic technology is used to interfere with the enemy's communication and command system, making the enemy's arms and corps blind and deaf. And use the air force advantage to continuously attack them, reducing the enemy's combat effectiveness to a minimum. After the ground forces were put into battle in the later period, they used elite armored forces to attack the enemy in depth, split and surrounded the enemy's heavy troops, and finally dealt a devastating blow to Iraq's most elite force, the Republican Guard.
Tactically, they focused on the coordination of various military services and made full use of their own advantages. What was particularly eye-catching was the successful interception of Iraq's Scud missiles with Patriot missiles, which greatly boosted the morale of the multinational forces and strengthened the confidence of the allies in their victory.
From the above various directions, we can see that the victory or defeat of modern wars is no longer determined unilaterally by military strength, but should be politically supported by the international community, with technical equipment advantages, flexible and changeable tactics, and using their own strengths to overcome the enemy's weaknesses, so as to achieve unity in battles and strategies, and ultimately achieve their political, military and economic goals.
And another important point is that most of the domestic military industrial enterprises have lagged behind due to historical reasons, and many enterprises are on the verge of bankruptcy due to poor management, and are simply unable to provide the army with various military equipment that meet modern combat conditions.
Under such circumstances, the idea of establishing the General Armament Department came up in China. On the one hand, it is to reintegrate the domestic military industrial resources, let the fittest survive, and extract the essence. On the other hand, it is to completely separate the civilian part from the military part, get rid of the burden and go into battle lightly, strengthen scientific research and design and manufacturing capabilities, and provide the army with advanced modern military equipment support.
However, it is difficult to reverse the accumulated problems. The problems of state-owned enterprises are very difficult to deal with. Even the problems in military enterprises cannot be solved in one or two days. Director Zhang also needs time to adjust the existing military resources at this time, especially to reintegrate some large military enterprises, and develop advanced military support industries that meet the conditions of modern warfare on this basis.
Panshi has had many large military enterprises in history. Although it is a bit backward now, the cadre and staff team formed over the years is still sound. I think this is what Director Zhang wants to talk to Fan Heng about. 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 the two of them were sitting there scratching their heads in worry.
"I don't think so? What can make you two so worried?" Fan Wubing said in surprise.
There are indeed reasons for the two people's worries, but the reasons are not to be told to outsiders.
Under Fan Wubing's curious questioning, Director Zhang finally told the reason. It is indeed related to military enterprises, but it is not consistent with Fan Wubing's imagination of developing military enterprises in Panshi.
Because Director Zhang told Fan Wubing that Panshi is no longer suitable for the development of high-precision and cutting-edge military industries due to too many foreign-funded enterprises. He asked Fan Heng to come this time for money.
"Money problem?" Fan Wubing was even more puzzled. Could it be that the military expenditure or scientific research funds were insufficient?
In the past two years, due to the implementation of the tax-sharing system, the financial situation of the central government has improved greatly. It is not possible that the problem of insufficient military expenditure will occur at this time?
"It's about the transfer problem-" Director Zhang said evasively, giving Fan Wubing the feeling that he was hesitant to say it.
It seems that there seems to be something unspeakable here! Fan Wubing asked about the details with curiosity, and Director Zhang told the reason.
