In the process of rapid economic development in Blanca City, huge economic benefits are inevitably accompanied by a large number of crime and pollution problems. San Jose can only try its best to avoid pollution problems and arrange its factories in the suburbs, away from water sources. Various crime issues are dealt with on a regular basis.
He didn’t know whether industrialization in La Pampa would be successful, but he did spend money to continue.
When it comes to planning the future development of cities in La Pampa Province, the focus will be on the construction of five major cities in the future, namely the four coastal cities headed by Blanca City and the old provincial capital of Santa Rosa.
These cities are all in development conditions, have good natural conditions, and have great development potential.
Despite some initial discomfort, San Jose now manages the province of La Pampa as easily as he manages the city of Blanca.
In addition to the five major cities, other cities in La Pampa Province have also been included in the development plan, but they mainly develop the primary industry, that is, agriculture and animal husbandry.
The other cities after the merger may seem huge in size and area, but their development potential is basically very poor.
Although the area of these cities has expanded and the population has indeed increased, it can only be said that the land is still vast and sparsely populated. This situation is also helpful for the development of agriculture and animal husbandry. The only problem that needs to be solved may be the land issue, but there are many La Pampa Many agricultural and pastoral areas in the province have gone bankrupt, and land is concentrated in a few companies or families. Several of those who opposed Saint Jose were killed, and now many have been acquired by Future Agriculture.
St. Hesse does not engage in land distribution or anything like that. He just sets up a professional farm planting company to turn farmers and herdsmen into farm workers. This is the best way he can think of.
The hematopoietic capacity of these small cities before the merger was extremely poor, and there were also some very serious problems, such as no own resources, no own industry, and poor geographical conditions, so it was very difficult to create enough jobs. .
But the fundamental problem is still the lack of people. There is not enough population. Even if 10 cities with a few thousand people are merged into one city with tens of thousands of people, it is still meaningless. In fact, it is just a larger town.
But Saint Jose will not give up these cities easily, and the geographical location and natural conditions of La Pampa Province are actually quite good. If there are really capable people to develop them, it is not impossible.
There is still a good chance that we can solve the transportation problems and then work hard to develop and increase the population.
This is a contradictory community. If there are no jobs, there will be no job retention, and if there is no job retention, there will be no jobs.
Moreover, these places are not coastal cities, so it is difficult to develop decent secondary and tertiary industries.
The three small cities along the coast still have great opportunities. If they can develop as quickly as Blanca City, they will not be far behind.
The essence of economic development is the gathering of people, logistics, and capital flows.
Now Blanca City has become the economic development center of La Pampa Province. If several more industrial cities are developed in the future.
Then when the time comes, just some fiscal funds can be released and fiscal transfers can be made to support these remote cities, not to mention that there is no chance of development now.
At least the chances are much greater than before.
...
In order to raise enough development funds, the La Pampa Provincial Office began to issue construction bonds. This is the third article of San Jose to rapidly develop La Pampa Province in addition to increasing fiscal revenue and establishing various banks and urban investment groups. way.
And it’s legal and reasonable.
Issuing bonds is nothing new in Argentina.
In the past, it was not feasible for La Pampa Province to issue bonds because the local governments were too poor, and the bonds that could not be purchased by people were just a pile of waste paper, or toilet paper.
Real foreign investment is actually very limited. Even banks controlled by the State-owned Assets Committee of the Provincial Department of Government cannot increase their own loans indefinitely. A large increase in loans can easily lead to corruption crises and government trust crises, and this debt cannot be withheld. of.
In terms of investment, the Cohen Consortium is not just owned by Saint Hesse. The Cohen Consortium has become a complex community of interests. He can control the general direction. He is the helmsman, but charity cannot guarantee basic survival and survival. Development is necessary.
He cannot always use the Cohen Consortium to invest in La Pampa Province and Blanca City for free. If the Cohen Consortium collapses sooner or later, it will also cause dissatisfaction among many subordinates.
What's more, a truly healthy government should have a reasonable development plan. San Jose has guided Blanca City Hall on a suitable development path, and now it is time to let them run on their own.
The investment in a large number of infrastructure construction, highways, railways, and water conservancy facilities is very huge, and it is necessary to use appropriate construction bonds.
San Jose officially announced the construction of the Colorado-Blanca Bay Canal Power Generation and Water Conservancy Project on July 16. The La Pampa Provincial Office and Blanca City Hall jointly issued a five-year, $80 million construction project. Bonds, used for preliminary construction work.
Utilize the existing blocked historical rivers and lakes to introduce water from the Colorado River into Blanca Bay to provide Blanca City with an urban clean tap water supply system sufficient for 3 million people. At the same time, we will arrange the construction of power station water conservancy facilities upstream to build a The large-scale hydropower station can supply the electricity consumption of 300,000 people for a year.
The Cohen Consortium and private chambers of commerce will subscribe to some of these construction bonds, and many will be provided to citizens for subscription. The interest rate is much higher than that of banks, making it a very reasonable financial product.
With the credit endorsement of the two major governments, all subscriptions were successfully subscribed in less than a week, raising a huge amount of construction funds. This attempt was a great success.
This kind of fundraising speed is quite rare in Argentina.
It is enough to prove the credibility of the new provincial government office.
San Jose quickly stepped up its efforts, formed a water conservancy project construction team and a research team, initiated the project, and launched the project directly. Troops were also transferred from the La Pampa Defense Force for water conservancy project security work.
Issuing bonds is at best a small test. Real development still depends on industry, especially the development of heavy industry. The Provincial Office of La Pampa uses the resources and funds of Blanca City, as well as financial resources, bank loans, and issuance selection. The new La Pampa Provincial Industrial Investment Company is established.
Continue to introduce and build more industrial enterprises, build large-scale heavy chemical plants, and prepare for the establishment of more science and engineering universities. The first five-year development plan includes the construction of La Pampa University of Technology, La Pampa University of Technology, and the expansion of La Pampa University. Important proposals include Polytechnic University.
The meeting report plan specifically stated that by the time 60 years comes, the steel production target of La Pampa Province will exceed 12 million tons. The current gap is around 5 million tons. We will continue to focus on supporting Blanca City Steel United Company and Hans Steel. company, and is preparing to build the La Pampa Steel Plant, which will also be constructed at another location in Blanca City.
Other key development plans including the petrochemical industry, coal industry, automobile industry, and machinery manufacturing industry have been included in the new government's proposal, and a large number of key support companies and factories have been divided into preferential treatment in terms of taxes, policies, loans, etc.
The Blanca City Customs, which cooperates with the Argentine National Customs Administration, also established cooperation with the La Pampa Finance Department and the Taxation Department at the request of San Jose to obtain more available fiscal revenue.
In the new five-year plan, the focus is on building and supporting 100 large enterprises, and establishing industrial sectors such as steel, aircraft, automobiles, tractors, chemicals, heavy machinery, precision instruments, and shipbuilding. Each important sector has at least 1-3 large enterprises.
For example, Blanca Customs now imports machine tools tax-free, and even subsidizes the company if it imports too much. Of course, this is not done in name. What the Customs does is import tax rebates.
If many large industrial machine tools cannot be imported, there is a white glove company in Saint-Jesse, which specializes in helping these companies "import" industrial equipment and machine tools. He started out as a smuggler, and Prali International Trade still has a large number of smuggling projects. It's just very "legal" smuggling.
Blindly restricting the import of industrial equipment will not protect domestic industries, but will also harm the development of other industries. With the support of Blanca Customs, Saint-Jesse can do many things much more conveniently.
Prali International imported a large amount of American equipment in Brazil, transported it to Argentina through various smuggling channels, laundered it and transformed it into Argentine machine tools, and then sold it to factories in La Pampa Province at a low price.
The machine tool factory under Philip Industries can currently only produce some small machine tools, the cost is also very high, and the quality is average.
This time, a large amount of support funds were obtained to produce domestic machine tools and equipment. These machine tools that Argentina can produce will be charged high import tariffs. There are no smuggling channels on the market, and they will even be heavily cracked down by customs.
If you want to become a big manufacturing country, machine tool production, manufacturing and research and development must keep up. Philip Industry also took advantage of the trend to make Philip Machine Tool Factory independent and became one of the 100 industrial enterprises supported by La Pampa Province, and there are still many orders. , you can live relatively smoothly.
If we pursue industrialization in an open and honest manner, the cost will be too high, and the chance of failure will be too high.
In order to develop industry, St. Jose is now using all kinds of means. One US dollar is worth three US dollars.
The current investment in basic industries in La Pampa Province, with this economic scale, will at least more than double the population of La Pampa Province.
Moreover, there is still a young and middle-aged labor force, and Saint Jose can only place its hope on domestic immigrants and a small number of ordinary foreign immigrants.
As for the issue of birth rate, we can only leave it to time.
Urbanization and industrialization are the best contraceptive pills.
…
The new high-ranking official St. Jose Cohen, who had gradually adapted to the rhythm of the provincial government office, finally began to have his hands free to prepare for the professionalization of the army.
In fact, as long as he grasps the general direction of the affairs of the La Pampa Provincial Hall, he will naturally have his subordinates to implement it, and it will even be easier than when he worked at the Blanca City Hall.
Saint Jose no longer has so much time and energy to waste on such trivial matters, and the newly promoted people in the Provincial Department of Government are all capable people.
These subordinates are rich in experience and each is responsible for their own role. They can communicate well with other provincial government departments, the presidential office and the parliament at the top, and the city halls of various places at the bottom. They are basically young and promising.
No one dares to look down on him because of his age.
Step by step, he reformed the provincial government office in his own direction and established a relatively complete fiscal and taxation system, which could exert influence on the subordinate municipalities. Blanca City Hall was the most important link.
The construction of La Pampa Province requires external resources. Some important companies of the Cohen Consortium and the American Sequoia Investment Bank also have a large amount of capital flowing into the four coastal cities of La Pampa.
The Cold War can be said to be the greatest "war" in human history, and various technological inventions are emerging one after another. Saint Jose is eyeing various technological inventions in the United States and the future of California - Silicon Valley.
There is no such thing as venture capital, and many electrical appliances and semiconductor material technologies have just started. It is an era when huge profits can be made. Companies such as Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel have not yet appeared in the future, and Bell Labs has only just started to start a business.
San Jose only needs to imagine some electrical appliances and electronic products in the future, and then invest in immature technologies to make a lot of money.
The coming 1960s and 1970s are an era of explosive technological development. Modern industrial products will increasingly focus on electronic technology. Argentina does not have the foundation to develop this industry, let alone Taiwan, South Korea and Japan, which can rely on the United States to develop itself. electronics industry, but we can also get something from it, and even reserve some technology from the United States.
The U.S. government has invested a large amount of money to develop the "American Dream", flaunting democracy and freedom, giving St. Jose a lot of opportunities to increase wealth and expand. As long as there is enough foreign investment, the rise of La Pampa Province is inevitable.
Moreover, by diversifying the wealth and transferring it, it can also avoid Sequoia Investment Bank and Blackstone Investment being too eye-catching. After all, this is a foreign company disguised as an American consortium.
Basically, as long as the company's accounts reach a profit of 50 million US dollars to 100 million US dollars, it will inevitably lose or lose more than 40 million US dollars. As for whether the money is invested in California or Mexico, or in Japan or Brazil and Japan, it doesn't matter. It didn't cause much trouble.
In this way, Sequoia and Blackstone investment banks are basically only ranked 20th to 50th on Wall Street. On the contrary, many emerging financial groups have emerged, distracting the FBI's attention.
After World War II, American conglomerates and multinational companies were undergoing crazy expansion and globalization. It was normal to make profits and lose money when doing business. Many media and families even believed that Sequoia was under the curse of expansion, which is the so-called curse of expansion. The $100 million trap is also known as the "Sequoia Trap". Many experts and professors have studied it in business schools.
In the future, the largest organized armed gang selling flour and smuggling arms in the world will be the CIA. New Cohen Heavy Industries’ arms smuggling business is licensed and licensed by the CIA. This is also because New Cohen Heavy Industries’ cheap weapons are manufactured by the United States. What was missing, New Cohen Heavy Industries obtained the drawings and data of the Czechoslovak version of the AK-47, optimized the Argentine version, and exported it directly to the free United States of America, only to obtain the protection rights of the CIA.
But all this has nothing to do with Saint Hesse. New Cohen Heavy Industry was independently spun off by Saint Hesse, and it was hung on the name of a subordinate. It made enough profits for Saint Hesse every month, and it was tacitly acknowledged. It was allowed to enter the Nanyang market, and this was the first time that Saint Jose "regularly" exported arms in Nanyang.
The essence of the arms trade is an extension of political influence. Fortunately, there is still a market for small arms and artillery as long as they are of high quality and low price.
For large arms sales, negotiate with the country. For small orders, you can go to African tribes to sell arms. New Cohen Heavy Industries' arms are quite easy to sell in Africa, and they have always been selling well, but they are too poor.
The arms market is actually quite special. It does not fall under the category of free economy. It is more about the continuation of political interests. The orders of New Cohen Heavy Industry are very scattered, and the number of large orders is very small.
Now New Cohen Heavy Industry can still fish in troubled waters, and can also provide support for some important arms research and development. It is already extraordinary to be able to maintain profits in the tens of millions.
Just like the five largest arms dealers in the world in the future, their names are: the United States, Russia, the United Kingdom, France and New China.
Yes, they are the top five gangsters. If they were ranked in the top ten, there might be Germany, Spain, Italy, Sweden and the like.
In the new century, Germany sometimes ranks higher than the UK.
New Cohen Heavy Industries can now "export" arms to Latin America normally, and all this is based on "friendly" protection fees.
If it is exported to Latin America, basically every 1 million US dollars earned will be contributed to the CIA with 300,000 US dollars, and privately you can also smuggle 1 million US dollars in profits, so you will not lose money anyway.
In the future, there will be no place on earth that can avoid the five gangsters. Even New China, which seems poor now, still has a lot of prestige in Asia, Africa and Latin America, but the two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union, are too powerful.
Just as war is a continuation of politics, the arms trade is actually the same!
In South America, the influence of the United States is at its peak, and Argentina, where Saint Jose is located, cannot avoid it. Therefore, he tried his best to open up the relationship between the CIA and the United States, actively imported American weapons and American machines, and showed favor to American arms dealers. However, Saint Jose Most plugged in only import products they need and deliver benefits to the United States.
The bad thing is that the United States itself is the largest arms dealer in the world, so the United States will actively crack down on other small arms dealers. After the nationalization of Rennes Military Industry, the smuggling export volume basically dropped to zero, and was then taken back by New Cohen Heavy Industries. , and even expanded three times.
The United States has never been strong enough to do whatever it wants, so Saint Jose has enough opportunities to develop.
…
Time soon arrived on August 1st, and the weather in Blanca City today was only 11 degrees Celsius.
The La Pampa Defense Force organized a winter exercise plan and prepared to start a new round of optimization work.
Some of the soldiers who have been optimized from these troops will have priority to apply for the Blanca City Police Department.
A large-scale expansion of soldiers at the end of last year over-expanded the number of troops, resulting in many training plans that were not implemented in place.
This time it is also for the purpose of implementing the elite soldier plan, and it is also considered to save expenses.
Judging from the current situation, Buenos Aires is not yet in chaos, and it is unnecessary to reserve so many soldiers. Moreover, a large number of working-age labor and childbearing people have been lost.
The La Pampa Defense Force will abolish at least 1-2 regiments, and Saint Jose is willing to let the Radical Party enter the army.
There was no Radical Party in the original La Pampa Defense Force. In fact, most of the soldiers were just like St. Jose once did. They basically graduated from elementary school and were able to become squad leaders after graduating from middle school.
As those who command the guns, these people can only be said to be professional soldiers.
Saint Jose hopes that the army will have real combat effectiveness and high-quality combat effectiveness to fight for ideals.
But this can only be said to be an idea.
Unless the country changes.
Otherwise this can only be a small-scale experiment.
However, it is also feasible to allow the Radical Party to enter the army.
We only need to develop some of the leading military officers into radical parties, rather than stuffing radical party members into the army.
But what is the Radical Party? After all, it is still a capitalist party, and it does not have much idealism. It is amazing to be able to play around with a national institution.
What's more, the military, a violent institution, is not simple.
The current combat effectiveness of the La Pampa Defense Force is not comparable to that of the Cordoba Defense Force.
Far worse.
The root cause is quality, training, and investment issues.
For an army to be able to truly fight and fight tough battles, it needs too many things.
This is not a situation like using mercenaries or security teams at the beginning. It can only be said to be playing house.
From institutional construction to investment in weapons development, it has taken countless years for a country as powerful as the United States.
From the War of Independence to the Westward Expansion, to the Civil War, the First World War, and the Second World War, it was all the strength that was built to build the world's largest military power.
As great as the Soviet Union, it was also supported by the strong national strength and industrialization system inherited from the Tsarist Russia era, which enabled the victory of the Great Patriotic War and the victory of World War II.
As close as Brazil, it also sent an expeditionary force to Europe.
And now the weak Argentina is fighting more civil wars. It seems that a century has passed since the last foreign war.
Just relying on a few books and some simple concepts is not enough.
We need enough training, enough exercises, enough investment, enough institutional construction, and the improvement of the quality of army soldiers.
It requires long-term efforts and even the blessing of ideological and cultural support.
The reform of the military is also advancing steadily.
San Jose can only change as it goes.
Fortunately, there is no shortage of various arms and weapons.
San Jose poached dozens of young officers from the Ministry of Defense for military training.
