Chapter 164 Confusion and Ambition

Zhao Guoping looked thoughtful.

An experimental force?

This is the true meaning of synthesis camp! ?

Naturally, it’s great when things work well, but when things don’t work, there are also experiences of failure.

He only saw that with so much investment in the combined camp, the army simply could not support it. Even if the army's procurement did not require much profit for the state-owned factories, the army's annual military expenditure could not build many combined camps.

But they didn't see the real significance of this combined battalion force.

Liu Tao saw Zhao Guoping's thoughtful look and nodded slightly. He was a young man who was good at thinking. He came from an extraordinary family and was a top student at Tsinghua University. He was also good at thinking and was indeed a talent that could be cultivated.

People are indeed different.

No matter how much you train some people, their upper limit is there. Even if they are reluctantly promoted, they will be squeezed out, and then they will end up miserable due to various poor performances.

But some people have a very high ceiling and can keep moving up. All they need is often an opportunity.

There is no doubt that Zhao Guoping is the kind of person who can be cultivated.

Liu Tao still admires Zhao Guoping.

"Reform and opening up, focusing on economic construction, is the current national policy of the country. First, the external environment has been greatly improved than before, and it is difficult for major countries to start a war. The possibility of a world-level war is unlikely in the short term. Second, the focus has shifted to economic construction. On the other hand, people's lives can be improved, and at the same time, they can learn advanced technologies and concepts from Europe and the United States, import advanced equipment and production lines from Europe and the United States, and also import resources. When the economy gets better, the country also has money, and it is easier to increase military spending. "More." Liu Tao said slowly: "For example, our automobile industry is still very weak and cannot support the semi-motorization and motorization of the army, let alone mechanization."

Zhao Guoping thoughtfully wrote it down in his notebook.

This was not the first time Liu Tao had said similar words to him, but it was from the perspective of military construction.

Army building is actually closely related to a country's industrialization level and comprehensive national strength.

Both the Soviet Army and the US Army have achieved mechanization, because they represent the highest level of industry in the world and the best economy. Bipolar hegemony is a joke, and China is still far behind.

Not to mention China at this time, traditional European powers such as Britain, France, and Germany were far behind the Soviet Union and the United States.

This started when the Soviet Union and the United States joined forces to dismantle the British and French colonial systems. Britain and France had to accept it no matter how unwilling they were. They lost the Suez Canal and various colonies.

The world independence movement after World War II was not only due to the fact that the strength of the traditional Western powers was greatly weakened by World War II and the awareness of national independence was awakened, but it was also secretly supported by the Soviet Union and the United States, and from a certain perspective, this was the real main reason.

"Poverty is not socialism. A rich country and a strong people are socialism." Liu Tao said.

Zhao Guoping's body trembled and he looked surprised.

These words shocked him greatly.

After returning home and taking a shower, Liu Tao went to the study.

His study can be said to be a big secret.

Those two computers alone contained huge secrets.

The computing power of every computer exceeds even the supercomputers of this era.

The most advanced supercomputer in the world now is Cray-1. Since its birth in 1975, it has been the most advanced supercomputer in the world so far. It sells for more than 10 million US dollars and has a power of 115 kilowatts, which is enough to run about 10 family. It uses Freon cooling, a 64-bit system, an operating frequency of 80MHz, and only 8MB of memory. If vector instructions are used properly, the peak speed can reach 250megaflops/s, and the weight reaches 5.5 tons.

In terms of running speed, it was far worse than his computer.

The value of these two computers alone is immeasurable, not to mention the information stored in the computers.

The design information of various firearms, the Type 80 self-propelled anti-aircraft gun and the Type 80 tank are all here.

He connected the printer to the computer and printed data in batches, saving a lot of manpower, material and financial resources.

Even the design data of the machine tools are stored in the computer instead of manual drawing like before.

In order to facilitate the storage of information, he even put a lot of effort into creating a memory.

Because of the importance of this place, the security level here is very high. There are at least 4 guards here 24 hours a day. Therefore, his second sister's family moved out of his place and moved into the house allocated to them.

Only Liu Tao lived in such a big house.

Turn on the computer, enter the password, and enter the desktop.

Later, Liu Tao uploaded the design data of several CNC machine tools to the storage.

Sitting on the chair, Liu Tao closed his eyes slightly and took a short rest.

Before, he had thought that China's foundation was no different from his own.

He once had an ambition to complete his plan in a short period of time, so that China could reach the level of the Soviet Army and the US Army in a few years.

When he actually did it, he found that he was stupid and naive.

Things were not as simple as he imagined.

In this era, China, even if it has detailed drawings, cannot produce it, because China has only initially realized industrialization, and the level of industrialization is very rudimentary, and it is difficult for parts to be processed to meet the requirements.

The more advanced the weapon, the higher the processing precision and the higher the need for high-precision machine tools. China lacks both high-precision machine tools and the talents to operate them.

In other words, he had to start from the basics and develop CNC machine tools by himself. After developing them, he had to make and use them by himself because he needed more advanced CNC machine tools.

He developed advanced self-propelled anti-aircraft guns and tanks, but tank manufacturers could not produce them because they could not process parts without advanced machine tools. Even if they bought machine tools, they would not export high-end machine tools to China. Even if they bought high-end machine tools, they would have to transport and install them for more than half a year. There were no workers who could operate them, so they had to ask foreigners to teach them. It would take at least another year to teach them.

He had to do everything by himself, and even had to cultivate supporting industries and production units.

He was confused. He had thought more than once that if he went into business by himself with the help of the system, he could easily become a tycoon, a world-class super tycoon, and make money easily. He would lie down and count money until his hands cramped. Why bother so much?

It's just that every time I think of it, in the past thirty years, after the founding of New China, all our industries were blank. Chiang Kai-shek brought most of the good things to Taiwan, but the Party and the country were indomitable, paid huge sacrifices and blood, and finally built a preliminary industrial system. Even if this industrial system is very rudimentary, it has already surpassed at least 80% of the countries in the world.

In the next thirty or forty years, China will still suffer a lot, pay a lot of painful prices, and suffer a lot of humiliation before it can build a complete industrial system, complete China's industrialization, and win the so-called industrial pearls.

He couldn't bear to give up and enjoy it alone. He wanted to be a trend-setter in this era of courageous advancement, so that China can industrialize faster and take fewer detours.
