In other places, there are some small iron and steel factories that do not have railways. More than a dozen trucks transport steel products every day, and dozens of trucks transport coke, ore, and other raw materials every day. If the railway and water terminal are within 10 kilometers from the factory , 20 trucks are enough to support this small steel mill.
"It is so close to Tangshan, a large steel base, that Qinhuangdao Iron and Steel Plant may have to pay attention to the difference from Tangshan Iron and Steel in its future development," Wang Heshou said.
Factory director: "We are more than 100 kilometers away from Tangshan, which is indeed very close, but Qinhuangdao can absorb all our steel products locally. In fact, before our factory was put into operation, it was not easy for the units in Qinhuangdao to go to Tangshan to get steel products."
Wang Heshou: "Yes, most of Tangshan's steel products are supplied to Tianjin and Beijing."
Tang Hua: "So it is still necessary for the Iron and Steel Industry Bureau to locate the fourth large-scale iron and steel enterprise in Tangshan."
The new Tangshan Iron and Steel Plant has been included in the "Second Five-Year Plan". Construction started in 1958. There are two phases of the project, each with an annual output of 150 million tons.
Tangshan is a place that I am interested in, not only because the demand for steel in North China is increasing, but also because the south of Tangshan is Caofeidian, which is a shipping terminal with great potential with a waterway depth of 36 meters.
Other ports in Bohai Bay, including Tianjin and Qinhuangdao, are not as deep as Caofeidian...
By 1964, when the second phase of the project was completed, Tangshan's annual output of 300 million tons could be supplied by Hebei iron mines and Hebei coal mines.The third and fourth phases will be later.Tang Hua estimates that with China's industrial product output growth rate and export competitiveness, by that time, it should be able to support the import of industrial raw materials such as ores from abroad.
……
Starting from Qinhuangdao, go deep into the inland along the road, and travel about 180 kilometers to Chengde.
Qian Xuesen is doing trouble in Chengde.
Ren Xinmin was sent to Wuliangsuhai to follow up on the test situation of Dongfeng-2's 67-ton thrust first stage.
The prototype of the engine went to Chengde for a ground test.
Judging from the Wuliangsuhai test in July, in the first test, the main nozzle of the 7-ton engine worked normally, and the rocket flew up to the sky and then fell back. However, from the data of radar tracking and optical tracking, the rocket’s swimming engine has The working state of one nozzle is abnormal, but it is covered up by the multi-nozzle + automatic deviation correction of the control system.
Therefore, after the test in July, Ren Xinmin and the base troops picked up parts in Wuliangsuhai.
It takes one month to pick them up. Of course, the main reason is not to find parts, but to analyze the main cause of the failure on the spot at the base.
"Director Qian, Ren Xinmin has analyzed the main reason, and he is preparing to return to Tianjin."
Tu Shoue said to Qian Xuesen.
"The efficiency is quite high," Qian Xuesen said. "According to our procedures, we find faults, change the process if it is a production problem, modify the plan for a design problem, and then send the new machine to Chengde for testing."
Tu Shou'e: "The 40-ton engine was tested once, but the 60-ton engine failed once. What we need to do is to test the [-]-ton engine. It is estimated that the probability of something going wrong is higher."
Qian Xuesen: "Not necessarily. In scientific research and engineering design, sometimes there is a bit of luck..."
……
evening.
A rocket engine test stand in Chengde.
With the engine installed on the test bench, everything is ready to go.
On the 4th floor of the vertical test platform, more than 20 meters were dug underground directly opposite the nozzle to build heat-resistant gas channels and diversion channels, which can test rocket engines with a thrust of up to 600 tons.
As a vertical test bench, it can accurately measure the control force and interference force acting on the engine when the servo control mechanism is working. Generally, it is more convenient to do the swimming nozzle engine on the vertical test bench.
The duty officer in the basement of the test bench reported on the phone that everything was ready, and looking out the window, the green light on the fourth floor of the test bench was also on.
"The experiment has begun." Qian Xuesen said into the phone.
Two seconds later, there was no movement on the test bench.
Qian Xuesen:?
5 seconds, 10 seconds, ...
Tu Shou'e: "It may be bad luck today."
Chapter 135, Davarish, that thing is smoking
When constructing a new Tangshan Iron and Steel Plant, or starting any construction projects in Tangshan, there is one thing that cannot be bypassed: the 1976 Tangshan Earthquake.
But Tangshan had to carry out industrial construction.The first is that Tang Hua can't explain it to others; the second is that if Tangshan does not carry out any industrial development, how will the hundreds of thousands of Tangshan citizens live?
Moreover, Tangshan is the concentrated area of modern industry in the north, and it can even be said that the foundation of heavy industry is the best in North China.
Starting from the Westernization Movement, Kailuan Coal Mine, Tangxu Railway, Qixin Cement, Tangshan Electric Power, Tangshan Ceramics, Tangshan Iron and Steel... China's first mechanized coal mining mine, the first standard gauge railway, the first steam locomotive, The first bucket of machine-made cement and the first railway bridge were born in Tangshan.
Now in 1956, when you said, "We are not going to develop in Tangshan, let North China Heavy Industry do it in another place." The other 14 committees of the State Planning Commission regarded you as an alien.
After returning from the Qinhuangdao Iron and Steel Plant, Tang Hua found a map at his residence and drew a circle with a radius of 18 kilometers around a point 50 kilometers west of Tangshan City Hall.
……
"For the new plant of Tangshan Iron and Steel Company, it is more appropriate to use Baigezhuang District in the southeast of Tangshan City as the site."
On the beach, Tang Hua drew a large circle with branches to indicate Tangshan, a small circle to indicate the location of Bogezhuang, and then drew a coastline.This place is not called Caofeidian yet. Caofeidian is a poetic place name dug out from old papers because people in the 21st century think that Bogezhuang is too earthy.
"This is still within the scope of Datangshan, not far from Tangshan City, and the terrain is flat. The investment in building a special steel plant railway branch line will not be too large. Also because of the very flat terrain, Bogezhuang is suitable for building a national-level super-large Iron and steel enterprise base. Another advantage of Bogezhuang is that it is close to the sea, and the sea area is very deep.”
Although it was scheduled to start construction in 1958, both the chairman and the prime minister were very interested in the new Tangshan Iron and Steel Plant. They asked Tang Hua and Li Fuchun during the swimming break to ask how the preparations for the Tangshan Iron and Steel Plant were going.Tang Hua talked about the current thinking of the Ministry of Heavy Industry.
"The geology of Bogezhuang has been investigated by an exploration team jointly formed by the Ministry of Geology and comrades from the Soviet Union. The coastline near the sea and the depth of Bohai Bay have also been investigated. Generally speaking, it is superior to Tangshan," Tang Hua said, " The urban area of Tangshan is built on a very thick soil foundation, while the soil layer of Baigezhuang is slightly thinner, with rock formations underneath, which are more suitable for the construction of overweight or super high modern buildings."
"In the past few years of the development of the First Five-Year Plan, we have also found that many areas in the south cannot find coal-iron complexes, and there is no condition for the development of a large-scale steel industry. In this case, starting from the overall situation of the country, we will build large-scale steel in the north Base, finished steel products are supplied by sea to southern provinces, especially Fujian and Guangdong provinces, to support their cities, transportation construction, machinery manufacturing, shipbuilding and other industries.”
The chairman waved back and told the guards to bring the cigarettes and matches.He lit a cigarette, took a puff, and asked a question:
"Wuhan Iron and Steel, Baotou Steel, and Anshan Iron and Steel. You used to talk about large iron and steel companies. Now Tangshan has become a super-large steel base. How much bigger is this super-big than big?"
"We plan to use 15 years to build the new Tangshan Iron and Steel Plant in five phases. The first and second phases of the project basically take the new Maanshan Iron and Steel Plant as the benchmark, reaching an annual output of 150 million tons and 300 million tons respectively; starting from the third phase , The scale and technical level of Tangshan Iron and Steel's new plant will have obvious innovations, and when the fifth phase of the project is completed, the output of Tangshan Iron and Steel's new plant will reach [-]%, "Tang Hua paused here:
"2000 million tons per year."
Chairman: ...
Prime Minister:……
Vice Chairman Liu: ...
Li Fuchun: ...
Prime Minister: "That's enough steel to supply all the provinces in the south. Judging from the first half of this year, our national annual steel output in 56 is only about 600 million tons."
"15 years was 1973, and I was 75 years old at that time," the Prime Minister said.
Chairman: "Well, don't sigh. I am 73 years old and 80 years old, and I haven't sighed yet."
"As China's industrialization continues, the amount of steel used in energy, machinery, precision instruments, ships, and vehicles will continue to increase. Not only heavy industry, but also light industry and agriculture also require steel, such as large water conservancy projects and agricultural machinery and tools."
"Another place where a huge amount of steel is used is urbanization, which means building a well-developed traffic road system and building a large number of urban houses. In order not to occupy too much cultivated land and improve the efficiency of urban operation, urban buildings will gradually be taller in the future. With the development of modernization, there are even a few skyscrapers, and the steel consumption per square meter of high-rise buildings is much higher than that of low-rise buildings.”
"To measure the level of a country's industrialization, there is a standard of 'accumulative per capita steel possession' and 'total national steel stock'. We have not been able to industrialize in the past 100 years, and we have not accumulated much steel. Now we have to catch up , From adobe houses to buildings, from dirt roads to roads, and even household items of all sizes, more and more will be made of steel in the future.”
