Chapter 1458: Want money

What is the "heavy weapon of the country"? This is!
For a 5-meter-wide thick plate rolling mill, Shen Hong casually gave an estimated investment of 3 billion yuan, and the two young masters who have always been accustomed to big-handedness all smashed their tongues.
He didn’t know that in another time and space, Huaxia made up its mind to start the 5-meter wide and heavy plate rolling mill until the beginning of the 21st century. The equipment was in charge of the headquarters of Magic Capital Baosteel. The first phase of the project started on September 8, 2002, in 2005. It was officially put into production on March 1. This behemoth with a rolling force of 10,000 tons has a power of 20,000 kW only for the main engine. It can roll thick steel plates with a maximum width of 4.8 meters, a thickness of 150 mm, and a length of 25 meters. The maximum weight is 25.3 tons!
The complete equipment of this rolling mill was integrated by Huaxia General Assembly. The double-cast rack alone weighs 388 tons. Hans Siemens has undertaken the construction of electrical and automatic control sub-systems, and the total cost of this system is-4.5 billion yuan!
It was also after this system was officially put into production that Huaxia's reconstruction project of the "Varyag" was successfully implemented-because Huaxia was finally able to produce aircraft carrier flight decks and structural steel on its own!
Now students should understand, why the "Varyag" was dragged back in 2002, but it has to wait until April 26, 2005 to officially start construction, right?
Tan Zhenhua had only vaguely heard in his previous life that "aircraft carrier steel" had gone through difficult research. It is only today that he understood the joints, and this also prompted him to make up his mind after gritting his teeth.
"3 billion is 3 billion, Mr. Shen, can you give me a suggestion, who can come forward to be responsible for this? I did it!"
...
In the next period of time, Tan Zhenhua became a trapeze and traveled to Munich and New York many times to meet with Skeff. Mellon, Ernst. Feng. After repeated negotiations, Siemens finally reached a series of agreements and decided to build a whole set of continuous casting thick plate production line in Ningdu Special Steel Plant.
The overall design of the production line is led by the Central Iron and Steel Research Institute, and more than 70 research institutes from the Ministry of Metallurgy and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology have participated in the planning and design. The annual design production capacity of the production line is 1.8 million tons. The newly constructed main production workshop is 1356 meters long. The plant is 276 meters wide and covers an area of ​​550,000 square meters. The main production equipment includes: three 300-ton refining converters for embryos; a 5050mm four-high reversible finishing mill with attached vertical rolls, with a maximum rolling force of 10,000 tons. The self-weight of the frame is 536 tons; two 245 tons/hour walking heating furnaces, a MULPIC control cooling system, a 9-roll full hydraulic hot straightening machine, an 11-roll full hydraulic cold straightening machine, and a 54x76m cooling bed , A cooling bed with a width of 38x27m, a high-efficiency cutting line and ancillary facilities consisting of a head segment shear, a rolling double-sided shear, a splitting shear, and a fixed-length shear. The entire construction period is scheduled for 36 months.
(The above equipment and data refer to Shagang's 5000mm thick plate continuous casting production line built and put into operation in 2009, the author's note.)
In addition to research units, many related companies such as China Second Heavy and Quadruple have obtained a large number of equipment orders from this project, and Siemens VAI (a company engaged in the design and manufacturing of metallurgical equipment under Siemens, one of the industry’s top three) The collaborative design unit of the project also undertook the construction of some precision components, and Mordo Rockwell became the main contractor of the automatic control system of the entire production line.
Looking at these equipment lists and engineering quantities, we can see that 3 billion is not enough to spend... The final total cost of the project is 4 billion!
This is 4 billion in 1991, and the housing price per square meter in the capital or the center of the magic city is less than 1,000 yuan!
Although Tan Er attended the grand contract signing ceremony with a smile on his face, cut the ribbon, and dug the first shovel of dirt, but he was dripping blood in his heart-especially the infrastructure construction of these heavy industries is too costly. , Seeing the wallet is the same as taking the special weight-loss drugs, and gradually losing weight. How can you live this day?
Just count and look at the huge swimming pool being dug in the Jinling Shipyard and the 16,000-ton free forging hydraulic press that is being built. It is already on the agenda to jointly invest with the Ministry of Aviation in a new aviation material factory. The planned 60,000-ton die forging hydraulic press, as well as several new research and improvement subjects for aero engines, the "Flying Leopard" modification plan, the carrier-based early warning aircraft...any project is the ancestor of burning money. Everyone is a bottomless pit that swallows gold, and I don't dare to think about it.
To tell the truth, when he was in the military world, he used to pretend to be Xiaobai as a keyboard man. He gave guidance to the entire Chinese military system and promoted writing. He had a kind of strategizing and rushing to me. But now I really let him After he got started, he realized that there were too many things he didn't understand, and Huaxia needed to make progress, and there were too many and too complicated projects that needed to be invested. Many of them needed to spend a lot of money, great efforts, and the power of the whole country. Project-like this heavy plate rolling mill. He didn't know that he needed this stuff before talking to Cai Qigong. After talking with Shen Hong, he learned that it costs so much money to do it, and so much money. After that, it will only be possible to solve the problem of an aircraft carrier's flight deck in 3 years-but to build an aircraft carrier, the problem that needs to be solved is more than a steel plate?
Just looking at the cost of an aircraft carrier may be at the level of tens of billions of yuan, but if you have to figure out the industrial system behind it, it will not be tens of billions. I am afraid it will be hundreds of billions, trillions of investment, and countless efforts of generations. , The accumulation of wisdom and sweat!
Thinking of this, Tan Zhenhua couldn't help but sympathize with the surprised third brother. It was really empty and full of pride but completely lacking a model of down-to-earth ability and willingness to do things. The year he came back was 2017, and this time and space passed by. It has been ten years, and the "Vikrant" aircraft carrier that has been in the water for N times in the third brother's family has no idea.
Although it is the established policy of Tan Zhenhua and "Red Flag Capital" to invest in these major projects, but this period of time is always inaccessible, which makes Tan Er scratch his head-his investment projects like to solve problems from the root cause, and doing so often burns The money burns very badly, and it can pay back...the effective cycle is also relatively long, that is to say, it needs a particularly sufficient capital turnover.
But now there are too many places to spend money. Let’s not talk about building those two islands and the bottomless pit of the two
three one
projects. You are like the company managed by the new official Wu Juewen— -Not to mention the undeveloped copper mines and oil and gas fields in Burmese jade, as well as the Indian government that he used his father’s relationship to contact. The two sides have already discussed the joint mining of Molucca and Sulawesi nickel mines. After exchanging opinions, the other party welcomes "Hongqi Mining" to participate in the international bidding for the mining rights of some mineral deposits-you see, this is a bidding, and the main competitors are long-established companies such as Sumitomo Metals and Mitsui & Co. Some of the minerals will inevitably mean a large amount of basic investment.
You have to spend money everywhere, no, even though I got a vote from the Japanese National University, I can’t just sit and eat all the time, right?
want! Do it! money!
