Section One Five-Year Plan One
In the industrial zone across the Wenlan River, the chimneys are emitting thick smoke. With the development of industry, there are more chimneys. These chimneys are spewing black smoke into the blue sky, announcing the latest progress of industrialization for travelers. chapter.
But this industrialization is still in its early stages. Ma Qianzhu thought to himself.
After D-Day, they fought, built, and engaged in diplomacy, and finally gained a firm foothold. The executive committee has insisted on giving travelers a better living environment from the beginning. Although they were ridiculed as "tourism" before the journey, in the past few months, they have been able to persevere in this unfamiliar environment. , there were no large-scale mood swings, and it was entirely due to the high standard of living conditions - not to mention, Ma Qianzhu himself felt that if he had to live in a tent after working for the executive committee for a day, he would drink There was smelly water, defecation in the grass, bathing in the river, and a group of vicious natives outside brandishing knives and guns, always ready to chop off their heads, and he would most likely have a mental breakdown.
The so-called original wild survival only caters to the cultural life requirements of the petty bourgeoisie who show off their professional equipment after dinner. They express appropriate indignation towards industrial civilization to show their love for the original ecology of nature. But if you want They lived for three days in a place without flush toilets or hot water for bathing. They would cry and shit in their crotches.
However, the industrial civilization of the Time Travel Group is too fragile. All the items of modern life that the Time Travel Group enjoys, and the machines and weapons that make the natives of this time and space tremble with fear and respect them like ghosts and gods, are all based on the items brought by the building from another time and space. Over time, they are losing these reserves. Wen Desi clearly pointed out at an executive committee meeting that the current status quo of the Chuan regime's prosperity is false, because the reality is: "We are slowly losing blood."
What has been lost is the blood of modern industrial civilization. Those scrapped parts, burned gasoline, lost motorcycle hours, mechanical life, aging rubber, and plastic parts. Every time Ma Qianzhu sees the report from the planning committee, he will feel a sense of urgency.
If a minimum self-sufficiency system cannot be established before the life of these devices is exhausted, the time traveler's plan to control East Asia and colonize Australia within a generation will be completely bankrupt.
The key is that even the most knowledgeable people among them about the industrial system have no way of knowing which kind of materials will cause the industrial upgrading of the Crossing Group to reach a bottleneck when they are exhausted. Therefore, the industrialization process must be started while various materials and equipment are still abundant.
How should we plan for the modern industrial system, the biggest killer of time travel?
He thought for a long time, took out a leather-bound notebook from the drawer of his "Holy Ship" brand white wood desk, and opened it. This is an essay about his thoughts and plans on how to build an industrial system.
What the time traveler has to do is to rebuild a complete industrial system. In his opinion, this system must:
The area should be as small as possible and the distribution should be as concentrated as possible. The fewer the number of major industrial areas, the better. However, there are no restrictions on pure mining points and mineral processing points.
Providing all the industrial products that the industrial society of the 19th century could produce, from machine guns to condoms to cars. Of course, it is not limited to being exactly the same, as long as the performance and operating mechanism are similar.
It can be self-sufficient and can support itself, update equipment, and maintain operations without importing any parts or knowledge from the outside. It can develop and continue to improve scale, processing accuracy, and even steering. For example, after a few generations, we will switch from fossil energy to nuclear fusion energy.
There should be a large seaport or a large inland port relying on a large river as a logistics center. A Three Gorges-level water conservancy hub connecting mining sites around the world, taking into account organized irrigation, flood control and clean energy. A processing and R&D center, a highly developed agricultural area with sufficient margins
Next to the logistics center is the petrochemical industrial zone. Taking into account the location of the hydropower hub and the main iron ore area, determine the artesian irrigation area and processing center, especially the metal smelting industry. Moreover, since the whole world is at your disposal, it should be transported by pipeline as much as possible. Railway transportation of coal should be minimized and coal slurry pipelines or pit-head power stations should be used to solve the problem.
If the terrain is not limited, it is best to place them in multiple ring-shaped areas in a rice shape on the plain. Different divisions of labor such as scientific research, life, production, entertainment and raw materials are divided into several according to the needs of raw materials in industrial categories. The environmental protection of the small cross ring area connected to the level of product demand must also be considered. The living area, entertainment area and scientific area are arranged in a tripod shape in the center of the entire grand circle. Raw materials are connected as much as possible through underground pipelines and load-carrying railway lines similar to the Daqin Railway, and personnel transportation is realized through an elevated light rail system. Industrial areas and production areas are best located close to 10,000-ton deep-water, ice-free ports and railway hub areas that connect to the open sea. Several Xiaolangdi-level hydropower stations are dotted far enough away from the entire city, and desalination plants that serve as flood control, irrigation water for agricultural areas, and back-up for urban domestic water must also be considered. Several small experimental reactors can be installed in the scientific research area as appropriate.
When he saw the word reactor, Ma Qianzhu realized how far-fetched and idealistic his thoughts were. Although there are many senior technicians from Core 405 Company in Zhongli, this thing should not be expected within the second or third generation - provided that they can pass on their knowledge, experience, and ideas to the next generation.
In the conference room of the Executive Committee Building, a meeting on the next development plan is being held. This is an enlarged meeting of the Executive Committee, and the participants include not only the Executive Committee members, but also the main leaders of various subordinate departments.
The theme of the meeting was future development planning. Most of the leaders of these departments were promoted during the recent organizational restructuring. They are all very proud and ready to show off their full economic capabilities. Each department proposed its own construction plan.
"Our current top priority is to complete the second phase of the Bairentan Hydropower Station," said Chang Kaishen, general manager and chief engineer of Lingao Electric Power Company.
“The reason why this project could not be completed in the past was largely due to our lack of labor force. Now that there is so much labor force and there is no shortage of cement, masonry, and bamboo reinforced concrete supply, it should be completed as soon as possible. "
“Can the safety of bamboo-reinforced concrete dams be guaranteed?”
"The Japanese used bamboo reinforced concrete to build water conservancy facilities during World War II. According to their experience, bamboo reinforced concrete is more reliable than using it to make prefabricated building parts." Mei Wan said, "We really need to investigate the issue of reliability. , our current small vertical kiln cement itself is not up to standard.”
"It's just that the structural strength is poorer and the lifespan is shorter. Besides, the rolling dam of the Bairentan Hydropower Station in the 20th century was also mainly made of stone. We can follow suit. If it doesn't work, we can also make do with a turf-earth dam."
Zhan Wuya nodded repeatedly: "I agree to expand power facilities as soon as possible. With the current power supply level, the operating rate of the machinery department is too low." Many machine tools in the machinery factory have not yet been opened - Hainan has high humidity, so opening After sealing, the maintenance work is heavy, and the traverser also lacks enough grease.
"The chemical industry department also has the same opinion," Ji Situi said. "If it weren't for the lack of electricity, our home-made electrolyzers would have been put into operation long ago. Caustic soda, bleaching powder, etc., could be produced immediately - these things are so useful."
"Can the power transmission and distribution problem be solved?" Ma Qianxu asked.
"It can be solved." Chang Kaishen was confident, "We have a complete set of equipment and can set up the Bairen-Bopu 110 kV line - this way the transmission loss will be smaller. Since the Executive Committee regards both sides of the Wenlan River as its main base, The equipment brought from the original time and space will be mainly used here. I believe that in the future we will be able to produce simple power transmission and distribution equipment."
"If it is decided to build the second phase of the Bairen Hydropower Station, it will not only be a problem of a hydropower station, but also a part of the comprehensive management project of the Wenlan River Basin." Ma Qianxu said.
He then unfolded his vision. This was a quite complex project. In addition to expanding the Bairen Hydropower Station, it was also necessary to build a sluice downstream of Bobu, repair the revetments, and dredge the river channel to adjust the water level of the Wenlan River. Ensure there is sufficient water even during dry periods.
Ma Qianzhu said: "Ensuring the water level of the Wenlan River has two main benefits."
First, it is conducive to inland river navigation. Although the Wenlan River is the largest river in Lingao, the water level difference between rainy and dry seasons is too large, so inland river navigation can only stay at the level of small rowing boats. In the driest season, some river sections A large number of rocks on the river bottom were exposed. Although the flow was not cut off, boat transportation was no longer possible. With the Bobu sluice, the water level in the river can be maintained at a basic depth.
Ma Qianzhu is a person who is extremely interested in canals. He has worked on a large number of canal projects in his spare time. The most ambitious one is naturally the inland shipping line of the Songliao Canal-Luanhai Canal-Beijing-Hangzhou Canal that he envisioned. . Of course, this plan can only remain in his notebook until the Travelers conquer all of China, but it is possible to canalize the Wenlan River.
Second, it is conducive to adjusting water storage capacity and is beneficial to industrial and agricultural production. At present, the irrigation benefits of Wenlan River are far from being fully realized. There are basically no canals in the large fields along the river. Watering relies on manpower and water trucks, which is extremely inefficient. The modern agriculture and industry that the traverser will promote will consume a lot of water. With the water gate, industrial and agricultural water use in the dry season can be guaranteed.
Everyone at the meeting was excited by the wonderful prospects outlined by Ma Qianxu. What Wu Nanhai saw was the criss-crossing irrigation canals; what Wen Desi saw was the fleet of barges on the canals; what Zhan Wuya saw was the countless turbines and power stations; what Xiao Zishan saw was the rafting trip on the river on the weekends family,.
