After listening to Chen Zhen's words, Lu Jiadong fully understood that the provincial conference on the military industry system held by the Provincial Department of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense was very sudden, and all military factories in Guixi Province received emergency notices temporarily, and it was also indicated that the directors of each factory must be present, and the leaders of all military factories in Guixi Province are all old foxes who have gone through ups and downs, and when they received this urgent notice, they naturally knew that this meeting was extraordinary, and since it was different from the past, it would naturally cause all kinds of speculation about the content of this meeting!

Wanshan Factory is no exception, and after receiving this urgent notice, it also made various speculations, some people think that it may be a major equipment research and development project, some people think that it may be a major personnel change, and a very small number of conspiracy theorists believe that it should be a large number of fighting meetings for the whole person, and so on.

However, among the many speculations, there is a very unique point of view, that is, Lu Jiadong's theory of reform of the military industrial system, and its central idea is that the military industrial system will face major adjustments, and the production, research and development and manufacturing of weapons and equipment will be reduced, which is tantamount to entering a cold and bitter winter for the entire military industrial system.

As a "traverser," Lu Jiadong knows very well that with the determination of the basic national policy of the country's reform and opening up, China's national defense and military spending has been greatly reduced, and the phrase "the army must be patient" has established the basic policy of giving way to economic development in the military building.

Although this contains the profound political philosophy that the wealth of the country promotes the strength of the people, and the strength of the people can make the country strong, it is undeniable that such a policy has prompted the army to compress a large number of orders for weapons and equipment. Many weapons and equipment under research or pre-research have been forced to dismount, the production tasks of various military factories have been reduced again and again, and the operating rate of production lines has plummeted. Gone are the days of hustle and bustle!

The Provincial Department of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense convened this emergency meeting at a time when the Sino-Vietnamese War had just ended, the front was basically stable, and the country's general development policy for the next 10 years or so was basically established.

Their rebuttal is also very powerful, that is, the border war is still going on, and who has the courage to reduce the task of weapons and equipment production at this critical juncture. Even if the military-industrial system agrees, it is impossible for the old generals of the army who have come from the mountains of corpses and blood to agree. Besides, since the end of the special period, we have been clamoring for the reduction of production plans and the reduction of the number of weapons and equipment research and development every year, but which time has it been serious?

As long as this kind of rumor is along, the director of the research institute and the director of the manufacturing plant will join hands and go to the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense to make trouble. Later, the senior cadres of the army will support them, and this weapons and equipment project will continue to survive, such is the case with the J-9 of a factory in the southwest, which is rumored to be dismounted every year, but every year it is safe and sound, and at the beginning of this year, there were rumors that this aircraft under research would be dismounted, but after the coordination of the Air Force, it was not also retained.

This is true for such high-end equipment, and the same is true for ordinary weapons and equipment. Not to mention far away, let's just say that this Wanshan factory, every year receives two or three notices of production task reduction, and is embarrassed to say that it is a military factory. But every time after receiving the notice, the factory director will go to the provincial department to take a turn, and it will not take long to come back and there will be an urgent notice of supplementary production.

Because of this, Lu Jiadong's view has not been taken seriously, and even the leaders of Wanshan Factory, such as Chen Zhen and Xing Xinghua, who have always trusted Lu Jiadong, feel that Lu Jiadong's point of view is a bit unfounded, not only the leadership, but even Yang Limin, who advances and retreats with Lu Jiadong, also has reservations about Lu Jiadong's view. And his words also represent the common idea of the vast number of military workers:

"The military-industrial complex is the eldest son of the Republic and the cornerstone of the country. How could it be cut!"

Of course, not everyone in the Wanshan factory opposed Lu Jiadong's views, for example, Liu Liang, Chen Zihao and some students of the youth training class supported Lu Jiadong very much, but these people were in the factory after all, and they were only out of blind worship of Lu Jiadong, so this support was not loud.

And Lu Jiadong is not very surprised by this situation, after all, not everyone is a traverser like him, and many people are not ready for the upcoming tide of reform on the other side, and his almost subversive views are indeed unacceptable to many people, but no matter what, since he has the dream of military industry and the dream of strengthening the army to be reborn in this era, even if he can't change such a historical trend, he must use his small butterfly wings to keep fanning, even if he can't change the overall situation of the reform of the entire military industrial system, but at least he can add a few pieces to the Wanshan factory"Warm cotton clothes"!

It is with this idea in mind that Lu Jiadong vigorously opposed the view that the scale of the factory was expanded and there was no need to retain the labor service company at several factory leadership meetings and factory affairs meetings, and the reservation of the labor service company almost reached a stubborn attitude.

Lu Jiadong's actions were not understood by anyone before, but Chen Zhen, who was sitting next to the hospital bed today, looked at Lu Jiadong on the hospital bed with gratitude on his face, and his tone became extremely kind:

"Before, I saw that you tried your best to keep the labor service company, and everyone thought that you had feelings for it, but now it seems that you have indeed played a good move to keep it there, at least it will leave a way out for our factory!"

"The factory director is right!" As soon as Chen Zhen's voice fell, Qiao Junfeng, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but nodded: "In the second half of the year, the production task of our factory was cut by one-third, and it is likely to be cut by half next year.

"Cut so much!" Listening to Qiao Junfeng's words, Lu Jiadong couldn't help but be a little surprised, although he knew that the production task could be cut, but he didn't expect to cut so much at one time, although the current production quota is allocated according to the scale of the new large factory, but if it is cut by half, even if it is a small factory before the expansion, it is only normal operation, and it cannot be reached at full capacity, and for a large factory, this production volume cannot even be reached to maintain the production line.

Seeing Lu Jiadong's expression, Chen Zhen, the director of the factory, also shook his head helplessly: "Our factory as a key project of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense and the General Armament Department, the pilot of the relocation of the third-line military industry, the production task is still relatively large, and the plan of the Red Star Factory and Guinan Factory of the same scale as ours in the second half of the year has been reduced by two-thirds, and it will be reduced by one-third on this basis next year.

"Xiao Lu, you just got sick this time and didn't go there, if you go, you will know, when the provincial department read out the news, the directors of all military factories in the province were fried at that time!" Qiao Junfeng was still a little energetic at first, but it didn't take long for his tone to become lonely:

"If it was before, it would be useful to make a fuss like this, but this time it is different from the past, the attitude of the provincial department is extremely tough, and anyone who intercedes will be rejected, and a few factory directors are angry but they slapped the table on the spot, scolded their mother, and the provincial department's method is also very absolute, and immediately removed the directors of these factories, so that no one dares to make trouble again!"

Qiao Junfeng couldn't help but glance at Lu Jiadong on the bed as he spoke: "Xiao Lu, haven't you seen the sad scene when you walked out of the venue after the meeting, which military factory leader is not a person who has come through ups and downs, but there is no one who walks out of the venue without tears, and if you can't explain to the old and young masters in the factory, it is endless!"

"It's okay to say that the production task is reduced, but the most hateful thing is that they have cut all the projects under research!" Qiao Junfeng's voice just fell, and Yang Limin, who was sitting on the other side, was even more angry, Yang Limin was usually gentle and elegant, although he was a little indifferent to others, but he had never seen him angry, but this time it was different, his eyes were full of irrepressible anger, his stiff cheeks were also beating with excitement, and the tone of his voice was even more angry:

"In the newly developed project of our factory, only one model of the semi-automatic sniper rifle improved according to the Type 78 is retained, and other heavy automatic grenade launchers, new general-purpose machine guns, and new individual rocket launchers have all been cut down, in addition, even our newly developed high-precision sniper rifles have not been spared, and the production will be stopped after the production of the existing 100, you say"

"Old Yang, don't get excited!" Looking at Yang Limin, who was so excited that he couldn't speak, Chen Zhen, who was sitting opposite him, couldn't help but persuade gently:

"Don't say it's our light weapons, even the ships that the navy urgently needs, the planes that the air force protects should not also be cut and cut, and those who should be dismounted, don't you also go to listen to this meeting, the air force project will retain a new project of J-8, and the rest are existing improvement projects, and all the others will be dismounted, even the J-9 with three ups and downs will not be spared! You also heard it at the meeting, we must obey the overall situation!"

"I understand the meaning of the country, and I also understand that only when the country is rich and strong can we more effectively support the development of the military industrial system!" Yang Limin listened to Chen Zhen's words, and couldn't help but nodded, but then his face flashed with excitement again: "But the development of the military industry needs cycles and talents, especially in the aviation industry, if the project is cut, the money is left, but it will also cause the stagnation of technology and the disconnection of talents, if you don't keep some research projects now, if you think about it one day and then develop it, it will be really more difficult than climbing to the sky!"

As he spoke, Yang Limin couldn't help but turn his head to Lu Jiadong, and his voice became very eager: "Xiao Lu, are you right about my point of view!"

Lu Jiadong listened to Yang Limin's words, and couldn't help but nod solemnly, and Chen Zhen and Qiao Junfeng beside him also looked gloomy, because everyone knew that the cold winter had arrived!
