The oil and gas produced now can only be burned for the time being, and it is not a waste of it anyway.If it is not burned, it can only be discharged to the ground, which will pollute a large area of ​​land.

After the daily output is measured, the oil well can be temporarily capped, and the oil well will continue to be unsealed after the oilfield facilities are built.

"Captain Hong, good job...today is a memorable day." Li Siguang said to Captain Hong.

"Today is December 12th. I have wine, and I've prepared it," Captain Hong took out a bottle of soju, "Minister Li, can you make do with it?"

Li Siguang took the wine bottle, took a sip from it, and handed it to Captain Hong. "The 5th, 6th,...8th wells were drilled, and finally the results came out. I will return to Jinan and report to the central government."

Zhanggai Village - Thirteen Maps - Zibo - Jinan.

As soon as Li Siguang got into the car and started to drive, he began to think about how to start the telegram he sent to the central government after he arrived in Jinan. He didn't notice that the Land Rover couldn't move after less than two kilometers. .

"Xiao Chen, that's strange. Why do I feel that the car is sinking?" Li Siguang asked the driver, Xiao Chen.

Chapter 70, emergency meeting of the Planning Commission and the General Directorate of Petroleum

In addition to the construction factory inherited from the government, there is also the authentic inheritance of Hanyang Iron Works in Chongqing-Chongqing Iron and Steel Company.

WISCO's factory history and official literature will not say that its predecessor is Hanyang Iron Works.Because it is not.

The predecessor of Chongqing Iron and Steel Company can be clearly traced back to Hanyang Iron Works.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, at the beginning of 1938, the Japanese army invaded Wuhan, and the Hanyang Iron Works immediately started to move westward.The national government formed the Hanyang Iron Works Westward Relocation Committee to prepare for the demolition, but the Hanyang Iron Works still suffered heavy losses during the relocation process.It was a year and a half after moving to Chongqing that the iron and steel factory settled in Dadukou and started operation for the first time. The name was also changed from Hanyang Iron Works to Steel Relocation Association.During the Anti-Japanese War, 90% of the small amount of guns and ammunition produced by the government was made of steel from the Iron and Steel Association.

At the end of 1949, the military command was preparing to blow up the Chongqing Iron and Steel Works (No. 29 Factory of the Ordnance Administration) before retreating, and buried more than ten tons of explosives. Fortunately, the workers' picket team eliminated the explosive detonators placed on the main equipment at the expense of 18 workers.By April 1950, except for the 4-ton blast furnace, which was still being repaired, all other major equipment had resumed production.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the main job of Chongqing Iron and Steel Company was to produce rails for the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway, which was completed by the end of 1952.There is also the production of billets for the construction of the arsenal, but the construction plant was undergoing technological transformation and equipment adjustment until 1951, and low-volume production was not started until 1952.

After the opening of Chengdu-Chongqing Railway, Chongqing Iron and Steel Company is producing rails for Baocheng Railway.

……

"In 1952, the steel output of Chongqing Iron and Steel Works exceeded 10 tons for the first time, reaching 10.2 tons. In 1953, the annual steel output was 12.3 tons. Eleven months have passed in 1954, and the steel output has reached 11 tons. In addition, due to the According to the needs of the factory, about 12.5 tons of raw and wrought iron we produce every year are directly provided to the farm tool factory instead of steelmaking.”

Zhao Wengang, general manager of Chongqing Iron and Steel Company, reported to the work.

Today's work report meeting is actually "three parties present": Chongqing Iron and Steel Group, the State Planning Commission represented by Tang Hua, and the Chongqing Municipal Government agency represented by Chongqing Municipal Party Secretary Cao Earth.

Chongqing is not a municipality directly under the Central Government.It was a municipality under the jurisdiction of the Southwest Region (Southwest Bureau) for a period of time before, but it was revoked in June 1954, and it is now a city (regional administration) under the jurisdiction of Sichuan Province.

However, after the state changed Chongqing to a provincial city, its political and economic treatment remained unchanged, and a separate state planning system was implemented.

Zhao Wengang: "In 1953 and 1954, the expansion of Chongqing Iron and Steel's freight terminal was completed in advance, and coal and iron ore support were also in place. Theoretically speaking, according to the current supporting construction, the annual output of Chongqing Iron and Steel can be expanded to 80 tons. "

Chongqing Iron & Steel was one of the only two domestic iron and steel enterprises with an annual output of more than 10 tons before the introduction of Suyuan. It was known as "North Anshan, South Chongqing" in the Ministry of Heavy Industry. In 1953, after research by engineers and workers of Chongqing Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., the steelmaking high open hearth furnace equipment was made for the first time. This is a very important milestone in the localization of domestic iron and steel equipment.It is impossible for Chongqing Steel to stop at 10 tons or 10,000+ tons, and it will definitely develop further in the future.

Tang Hua: "The reason for the expansion to 80 tons is because of the demand for steel for construction of factories, Baocheng Railway and subsequent railway construction rails. The heavy steel production capacity occupied every year is 20 tons, and it will gradually reach 25 tons per year by the end of the second five-year plan. Tons. The remaining production capacity of Chongqing Steel is used for local construction in Chongqing and Sichuan Province. Regarding the relationship between local and central enterprises, the State Planning Commission’s idea is to strengthen communication and ensure smooth cooperation. Chongqing accounts for half of the steel used for local construction. Other places in Sichuan account for half of this quota, so you need to formulate local development plans and calculate the amount of steel used."

Cao Earth: "80 tons minus 20 tons, and then divided by 2, is 30 tons. Chongqing needs all of them. You can expand production capacity according to the annual output of 80 tons."

Zhao Wengang: ...

Cao Earth: "Automated weaving factories, Chongqing paper mills, dyeing and weaving factories, these are the projects arranged by the State Planning Commission in Chongqing in the next two years, but we don't have to work, we have to build roads. And longevity Power Plant, Chongqing Power Plant, Chongqing Plastics Factory, Changshou Chemical Plant No. [-], Chongqing Timber Comprehensive Processing Plant, Chongqing Meat Factory, Chongqing Canned Food Factory, Chongqing Thermos Bottle Factory, except for those two power plants that are directly under the control of your State Planning Commission. Every business is locally relevant.”

Tang Hua: "In addition to the Changshou Chemical Plant, do you build a second chemical plant?"

Cao Earth: "Yes, the Changshou Chemical Factory is a factory built by the General Administration of Ordnance Industry. It makes gunpowder, right? The Second Chemical Factory is a daily chemical factory."

"There is also a big place where steel is used. Chongqing municipal engineering, sewers, and water pipes all use steel and cast iron. The cableway at Lianglukou and the small cross trolleybus project at Shangqing Temple are to be built. There is also Yubei Highway outside the city. There are at least 4 bridges, which need to be made of steel. Not to mention the industrial and living areas.”

"In terms of agricultural infrastructure, it is planned to build 3 mechanical water lifting projects and 16 small reservoirs, requiring 9 mu of irrigated farmland..."

Tang Hua could tell that if it hadn't been for the 50% quota of steel used in Chongqing at the beginning, this Cao Earth could have eaten all 60 tons of steel.

"These construction plans all involve the use of steel and iron. Some projects use quite a lot of steel. I believe you can use up 30 tons now. It may not be enough. When you make plans, you have to make some trade-offs. There is an arrangement relationship." Tang Hua said.

Cao Earth: "Yes, we have to arrange the order. But you also know the current situation in Chongqing. It is difficult to build a city with many mountains. If the urban area is to run smoothly, it needs a lot of municipal construction to ensure it."

……

"After dividing the steel, it's time to divide the money." Tang Hua said.

By the end of 1956, Chongqing's First Five-Year Project was almost finalized, either starting construction or preparing to start construction.The new key workers for these projects are 12500 people.

The reason why we say they are essential workers means that in the plan, these 11500 jobs are all normal jobs. These people in the steel factory are for steelmaking, these people in the arsenal are for making guns, and these people in the power plant are all in jobs. generating electricity.

This is the statistical method currently used by the Planning Commission, key workers and positions, in addition, there are 20% of the internship posts to train and reserve talents for other new enterprises in the future, and 10% of the administrative posts.

In addition, it is the factory ancillary facilities mentioned before.According to the practice in the 5s and 60s, the number of basic staff is 11500, and the total number of employees is 16000, but the total number of recruits will eventually exceed 2.

These people run cafeterias, restaurants, snack shops, barber shops, tailor shops, movie theaters, etc. in the factory... There are even another briquette factory in the factory to make briquettes for employees.

"Add 16000 people to the establishment. Their salaries plus the in-kind benefits paid by the factory will have 120 to 130 million yuan per month, which will be transferred from the state treasury to these workers," Tang Hua said. Fifteen million or so."

"Now there are two ways to do it. One is a salary of 1500 million yuan a year. The workers get all their daily consumption needs from the service organization in the factory, and the rest is deposited in the bank. The 500 million yuan goes from the state to the bank. From the hands of the factory workers, and from the hands of the workers into the factory, into the bank, anyway, they all go back to the country, and it has nothing to do with you in Chongqing.”

"The second approach, we want to save trouble, 16000 people is enough, and we don't want to add thousands of jobs to these enterprises. Let's assume that the savings rate of workers is 33% now, with a salary of 500 million, workers We have 500 million in the bank, or 1000 million for consumption. Can Chongqing divide the money?"

Zhao Wengang: "Well, for the efficiency of workers' production and the convenience of life for single workers, there is still a canteen in the factory, but we need to minimize the ancillary facilities outside the canteen."

Cao Earth: "Your factory is still contracted out for food. Let me think about it..."

"Manager Zhao didn't say a contract, but there is a place to eat in the factory. And based on the experience I have seen in so many factories, the quality of food in most canteens is very average." Tang Hua said with a smile, "Last year, the central government made a decision on the development of agriculture. The resolution of the production cooperatives actually mentioned the idea of ​​collective public ownership of the economy.”

Cao Earth: "Three-level ownership, team-based?"

Tang Hua nodded, "The workers sell meat and buy vegetables, and come out on weekends to have a tooth festival, it can be solved."

Cao Earth: "Ah? Isn't this something that farmers can solve by picking their own vegetables and bringing them into the city? I thought you were talking about the hairdresser in the commissary."

Farmers picking their own vegetables and selling them in cities can certainly solve the problem at present, but it may not be so in the future.With a food basket with social division of labor, this model can go further.

Dismantling large state-owned enterprises, at least some of their functions, can make money more efficient.

The wages of the workers are exchanged for the vegetables of the farmers, and the farmers have an extra income. In the past three years, they added one piece of clothing, but now they can add two.The money goes to the mills, and then to the tailors, cotton farmers, and weavers, and on and on.The money that was originally withdrawn directly has now brought in textile factories and tailor shops, and the vegetables eaten by the workers are fresher, and the farmers are charged a few dollars more every month. The textile factory is not slow-moving and has money to expand.

"Secretary Cao, the reason why this matter needs to be discussed and discussed instead of letting it develop naturally is mainly to make life more stable after the socialization of logistics," Tang Hua finally said, "I'm afraid that one day the vegetables will suddenly be unavailable. The door is closed, and the price of honeycomb coal has skyrocketed, so it is very uncomfortable. Let the country distribute regional living subsidies, and you will be fine in a few months; without subsidies, the boys can’t afford to shave their heads. Everything must be planned and prepared first. good."

……

Besides Tang Hua in Chongqing, Xue Muqiao, another planning committee member, is doing almost the same thing in Xi'an.

Speaking of the root cause, it is still related to Tang Hua's statement in front of the Prime Minister to streamline various machinery industry departments.Not only the top management, the chief accountant and the two ministers of the finance department are especially concerned about the efficient allocation of the middle and lower levels and the factory establishment, because it can save more money.

But at this moment, it is just the beginning. Run it first and try to see if it works well. If there are any areas that need to be improved that have not been considered, then slowly go through the whole country.
