Yan Jiecheng has not been home for two weeks, so it goes without saying that he needs to write a checkup on the weekend.
He shouldn't be too familiar with this writing. After all, I wrote a lot in my previous life.
The key problem is that Yan Jiecheng's small class is about to start, so he is busy preparing handouts.
If I hadn't been a man for two lifetimes, I would have a profound understanding of these things and have accumulated a lot of experience.
It's really not easy to do it in such a short period of time.
It took almost a month for Yan Jiecheng to finally prepare the lecture materials.
To be honest, these days, all the materials have to be written by hand, which is really hard work.
For lectures, Yan Jiecheng specially wrote lecture notes on the themes of "Railway and Economy", "Railway Technology and Innovation", "The Significance of Developing High-Speed Railways", "Exploring the Direction of Railway Reform" and "Eight Verticals and Eight Horizontal Blueprints".
Not counting the illustrations, these handouts contained more than 150,000 words. Yan Jiecheng felt that he was simply a model worker.
Cai Ketian was holding a copy of "Railway and Economy" written by Yan Jiecheng on the side and was reading it with gusto.
From time to time, I also express some personal opinions.
“If you want to be rich, build roads first. What you said is so right.
The phrase "the road to Shu is difficult" expresses the sadness of our people in Sichuan and Shu.
Railways are of extremely important significance in promoting economic and social development and serving people's travel.
The Baocheng Line has indeed made great contributions to our Sichuan and Sichuan over the years.
Although I was aware of the importance of railways before, it was only after reading the content in your book "Railway and Economy" that I truly understood their inner connection. "
Yan Jiecheng said with a smile: "According to the laws of economic development, the exchange of goods and talents between regions will become more frequent.
Like the Land of Abundance, the isolated island economy under the small-scale peasant economy will become increasingly difficult in the future.
Developing transportation in Sichuan will be the most important means of economic development. "
Cai Ketian sighed: “Yes, if we want to revitalize the economy, we can only improve transportation first.
However, the development of transportation requires funds. Doesn’t this problem fall into an infinite loop again? "
Yan Jiecheng also had a headache when he heard this. Everyone is making money these days. But there is no money from top to bottom, so it is really difficult to do this.
Yan Jiecheng remembered that at this stage in his previous life, the country borrowed a lot of debt from Xiaori for development.
This Japanese yen loan to China has promoted the rapid development of economic and trade between the two countries.
At present, more than 40% of Japanese yen loans are used for railways, ports, airports, electricity, etc. accounting for 19%, communications accounting for 5%, and urban construction also accounting for 4%.
For example, part of the funds for the current upgrade of the railway come from this.
This has also led some people to say that Japanese yen loans have made great contributions to China’s economy.
Of course, this is all bullshit in Yan Jiecheng's eyes.
It's just a case of everyone getting what they need.
We use other people's money to develop the economy and people's livelihood, and we also take the opportunity to share part of our development dividends.
Besides, Xiaozhi probably knew that Europe and the United States had bad intentions towards him, so he just wanted to make arrangements in advance to hedge against it.
Therefore, don’t say it’s noble, and don’t use dirty methods in your daily life.
In the international game, our skills were inferior and we lost completely. If you don't blame others, you can't help others pay for it after being sold, right?
Such people are either bad or stupid!
After Cai Ketian finished speaking, he didn't expect to be able to answer.
Then he looked at Yan Jiecheng and asked, "Then why do some railways specifically pass through no-man's land? This should have no economic effect."
When Yan Jiecheng heard his question, he stopped writing, took a sip of tea, and said: "Our country is a multi-ethnic and unified country with a vast territory and prominent uneven development.
The population of the vast western region west of the Heihe-Tengchong line only accounts for 5.6%, but its land area accounts for 57.1%.
Economic backwardness and uneven development can easily give certain organizations and extremism opportunities to take advantage of.
Therefore, in the construction of new railway lines in the central and western regions, we should fully grasp the important connotation of the contradiction between development.
From the perspective of territorial balance, national defense, and national unification, we should give full play to the ability of railways to drive regional development, plan appropriately in advance, and select construction standards reasonably.
There's nothing wrong with that, right? "
After Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, Cai Ketian immediately understood what Yan Jiecheng meant. He nodded and said nothing more, but carefully read the materials written by Yan Jiecheng.
New week.
Yan Jie followed everyone to the classroom as usual.
However, when he arrived in the classroom, Yan Jiecheng went directly to the podium.
Everyone was not surprised when they saw it.
After the class started, Yan Jiecheng saw the school principal and leaders, as well as the school's professors who specialize in teaching and doing research, all sitting down and listening to the class.
Yan Jiecheng was not polite and directly picked up the chalk and marked it on the blackboard.
Railways and economy are these five characters.
Then, he said with a smile: "Dear students, today I will share with you the relationship between railways and economy."
Yan Jiecheng did not bring any lecture notes, but walked in the classroom and talked between the desks.
"Everyone knows that railways are the main artery of the national economy and play an important role in promoting social and economic development."
Yan Jiecheng said with a smile: "But what are its specific functions? I'm afraid no one can tell them all!"
After Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, he continued his lecture without waiting for others to answer.
“Throwing through the clouds of history, looking back at the hard times.
From the day it was born, Huaxia Railway has been closely linked to the destiny of the country and nation, the cause of the organization, and the interests of the people. "
When Yan Jiecheng came here, he couldn't help but sigh. After all, railways have a great relationship with China's modern history.
The railway appeared very late in China, but as soon as it appeared, it brought political significance that far exceeded its economic value and greatly changed the history of China.
China was very reluctant to accept the railway at first.
As early as not long after the Opium War, businessman John spent his own money to build a 500-meter-long small railway in the capital to advertise.
As a result, the Empress Dowager Cixi was so frightened that she ordered it to be demolished.
Later, the first real railway in China was the Wusong Railway built privately in Shanghai by a foreign company. In the end, it was bought out and demolished by the imperial court.
The first railway built by the Qing government itself was less than 10 kilometers long.
Because they were afraid that the opposition would cause trouble, they only dared to use mules and horses to pull them, and they were known as horse-drawn carriages.
But the Qing government could not stop such a scourge as the railway.
Later, the direct trigger for the fall of the Qing Dynasty was the road protection movement that took place in Sichuan and Shu.
Railways also brought unexpected by-products to political life in that era.
That was the numerous train station assassinations.
Ito Hirobumi, Prime Minister of the Little Japanese Cabinet, Song Jiaoren, the leader of the Kuomintang, Xu Shuzheng, the warlord, Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Zongchang, the kings of Northeast China, and so on.
They were all assassinated on the train line, which can be called a unique culture.
From being regarded as a monster to desperately protecting railways, the attitude towards railways in the past century and the logic behind it represent the repeated impacts of humanistic concepts.
Yan Jiecheng recovered his thoughts and continued:
“Our country has a vast territory, deep and vast inland areas, a large population, and unbalanced resource distribution and industrial layout.
Railway transportation has outstanding comparative advantages among various modes of transportation and plays a particularly important position and role in economic and social development.
Railway is an important transportation infrastructure in the country and one of the resource-based and environment-friendly modes of transportation.
It is not only the main artery for the development of the national economy, but also has the characteristics of safety, economy, convenience, benefits, fast speed, large transportation capacity, and all-weather transportation. "
When Yan Jiecheng said this, he couldn't help but stop and take a sip of tea.
Then he said: "These are commonplace questions, and I don't have much theory about the railway artery.
Today, I want to talk about the role of railway construction in stimulating the economy and its impact on economic development along the lines. "
After Yan Jiecheng said this, everyone was a little curious.
Only those professors studying economics had their eyes flashed, as if they had thought of something.
Yan Jiecheng said with a smile: "The economic development of a region is closely related to the local traffic conditions. The development of railways plays an important role in the transformation of urban structure and industrial upgrading, promoting the improvement of urban functions and promoting industrial agglomeration.
It can be said that railways are a catalyst for urban economic development. Railway construction accelerates the integration of regional economies, strengthens communication between economic zones, and transforms urban transportation into public transportation.
The more important significance lies in smoothing the flow of people and accelerating the circulation of production materials.
The rapid flow of people and the rapid circulation of production materials are inevitable prerequisites for promoting rapid economic and social development.
Traditionally, we agree that the significance of railway transportation lies in the circulation of goods, but ignore the benefits brought by the movement of people..."
In the next few days, Yan Jiecheng talked about "Railway Technology and Innovation" again.
Yan Jiecheng explained what railway development is, science and technology first.
I introduced to you in detail the achievements made in technological innovation, basic research and other aspects.
In recent years, we have continued to leverage our industry advantages and achieved remarkable results. Yan Jiecheng even claimed that he wanted Huaxia Railway to become a "business card" representing China's image.
Yan Jiecheng's lecture explained what is the unique charm of railway technological innovation.
When everyone heard this, they thought it was Yan Jiecheng's ambition.
In the class on "The Significance of Developing High-Speed Railways", Yan Jiecheng raised a question of quantity and quality.
Yan Jiecheng believes that high-speed railways will bring qualitative improvements to the economic development of the areas where the lines pass.
As for Yan Jiecheng's class on "Exploring the Direction of Railway Reform", the discussion was very heated.
They are very interested in the economic contract responsibility system proposed by Yan Jiecheng to build roads based on input and output.
Yan Jiecheng had long wanted to propose reforms in the ministry, but Zhu Huimin had always been in charge, so he didn't propose it now.
Later, the old leader was in charge again, which seemed to be a transitional period.
There was obviously no time to propose reforms, so it was delayed again and again.
Now Yan Jiecheng can only give lectures in class, so that everyone can discuss them together, which can be regarded as a collective effort.
In order to adapt to the current requirements of economic development, Yan Jiecheng proposed that railway development should shift from production-oriented to operational and pioneering, and from restricted transportation to adaptive transportation.
Only in this way can the railway's self-reform and self-development capabilities be enhanced.
In the school class, after discussions between students and school professors, everyone always felt that Yan Jiecheng's so-called large-scale contract idea completely clarified the ideas and clarified the direction for railway transportation production and reform and development.
This is absolutely possible and will create a new situation for railway development in the new era.
The school even sent relevant materials to Yan Jiecheng’s proposal of the railway bureau’s economic contracting responsibility system and the implementation of the modernization of railway enterprise management.
As for Yan Jiecheng's class lecture on "Eight Vertical and Eight Horizontal Blueprints", everyone thought he was drunk.
They all said that Mr. Yan’s idea was a good one, but then they stopped talking.
But you cannot regard your inner wishes as a blueprint for the development of an industry.
Even Shu Hongping, who usually acts steadily and behaves appropriately, couldn't help but say: "This little teacher Yan, ah... I think it's better for us to be realistic. This kind of blueprint is simply impossible to realize."
Everyone's reaction was as expected by Yan Jiecheng. The eight vertical and eight horizontal lines looked really scary.
The more Yan Jiecheng talked, the more excited he became, dancing with joy as he talked. Yan Jiecheng couldn't help but feel happy when he thought of the high-speed rail network extending in all directions in later generations.
Analyze with everyone, why each line is selected in this way, and what are the benefits of this design?
As he talked, everyone was attracted by his words. I was deeply impressed by the developed transportation network he described.
Huida Fujun's face, which has been through many vicissitudes of life, seems to have more wrinkles than usual.
He couldn't help but look at the map. He really couldn't imagine what life would be like if there were railways in the high loess slopes of Huangyuan and the northern part of Yuanxi Province.
I’m afraid not ordinary people can eat white flour steamed buns every day!
If Yan Jiecheng knew what Tian Fujun was thinking, he would definitely tell him, let alone the white flour buns. Even Roujiamo, everyone is tired of it.
But when it came to the discussion session, everyone seemed to wake up collectively. He showed an expression of shame as he was confused by Yan Jiecheng's words just now.
When Yan Jiecheng saw this, he knew in his heart that they didn't believe it. But human beings all have the same desire for a better life, so they are attracted.
Seeing this, I just smiled and told everyone that this was just a family thing.
After all, some of them can live to that time and see it with their own eyes.
After Yan Jiecheng's week-long lecture, everyone found that Yan Jiecheng was very optimistic about the future development of the railway.
This situation makes everyone feel a little incomprehensible.
After all, they are all confused about future development.
Although they are confident in building this country, everyone is now confused. Only Yan Jiecheng is optimistic and confident about future development.
In the end, everyone just attributed this to the characteristics of young people.
After all, young people are full of passion and are at the stage when newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.
The school principal, however, has different opinions than others. He felt that this was Yan Jiecheng's infinite love and trust for the organization and the people.
Otherwise, there would not be such a grand blueprint.
