Chen Shao, who returned to the imperial study, did not rest, but took out a copy of the "Report on the Development of China's Military Industry" and read it. The report, which is sprinkled with tens of thousands of words, records in detail the scale, production capacity, and pattern of China's military industrial development over the past 10 years.

Military industry: industrial sectors and factories related to the army or war (combat readiness), mainly serving national defense construction, and directly providing weapons and equipment and other military supplies to the troops.

This is a report compiled by Chen Shao himself, which is integrated from several reports. Some of these reports are public, some are secret. For the overall planning, Chen Shao took a moment to sort out the complete report.

This is also a development report that countries around the world do not understand, because it covers many projects that they do not understand, and they probably have not even heard of it. If this report is released, the world situation is likely to be reversed, and then all countries will point the finger at China. Because from the report, the information revealed is powerful.

After 10 years of planning and construction, China's existing military industry covers many industries such as aviation, aerospace, weapons, ships, electronics, and nuclear, and its product range is extremely extensive. Even many advanced ideas in later generations are recorded in detail. Although aerospace is only a tip now, Chen Shao has already planned the plan. In order to be able to develop faster.

Nuclear power, which is no longer a secret within China's top brass, has been built at a rate of one a year, easing the power supply to many cities. This is a secret that cannot be said at the top level of China. The people only use it, and it is not clear where the electricity comes from.

As for the nuclear bomb, which is a weapon of mass destruction, only Chen Shao and the people in the Nepalese military base know about it. If such a thing can be kept secret, it must be kept secret, and the trump card that is hidden is the real trump card.

Most of the products of China's military industry are products independently developed and produced by each of the six major industries, that is, products that are basically developed and produced by one industry alone. However, there are also some important military industrial products that are cross-industry products, that is, products that are developed and produced by two or more industries in cooperation and jointly completed, for example, nuclear submarines and ballistic missile nuclear weapons are products developed and produced by two or three industries, namely, ships and nuclear, aerospace and nuclear, and ships and aerospace and nuclear, while rockets are products with the characteristics of the aerospace and aviation industries. In the future, with the development of science and technology, the boundaries of the industry will become more and more blurred in some new and important products of the military industry, such as rocket propulsion, nuclear propulsion spacecraft, and so on, and this will also have a certain impact on the industrial structure of the military industry.

Therefore, Chen Shao needs a detailed plan to slowly integrate these things together while ensuring concealment. Nowadays, research in various fields has made great progress, and such things are more urgent. And there are some things that many people can't know yet, and only a limited number of people can help them. After all, the more people know, it is no longer a secret, and the trump card loses its utility.

China's current military industry is a complete scientific, technological, and industrial system composed of a number of industries or industries closely related to national defense, with functions ranging from scientific research, production, and maintenance, and its products include not only all weapons and equipment, but also a large number of economic, scientific, technological, and other civilian products of non-defense industries. Supplies such as camouflage uniforms used by soldiers are produced by many civilian companies, but this is limited to the Longteng Group.

Chen Shao now also wants to learn from the advanced countries of the United States and Europe in later generations. Later, the structure of military industrial enterprises in the United States and major European countries was divided into three levels: system main contractor, subsystem/component subcontractor, and parts/raw material supplier according to their role and scale, showing a pyramid shape with a small upper layer and a large lower layer. The main contractor of a large-scale weapon system development and production plan may only be a large company or a contracting group composed of 2~3 companies, but the subcontractors involved and suppliers of parts and components may be as many as 1,000 or even 10,000. For example, the US DDG-51 destroyer program involves more than 500 subcontractors, and there are a large number of suppliers under each subcontractor, such as General Electric, a subcontractor of the project, which has more than 1,200 parts suppliers. The weapon system master contractor, also known as the system integration contractor, is responsible for the overall design, comprehensive coordination, and final assembly of the weapon system, and is at the top of the structural pyramid of the military industrial enterprise, forming the core of the military industrial industry.

Such enterprises are world-renowned large enterprises, such as Lockheed in the United States. Martin, Boeing, BAE Systems in the UK and Thales in France, among others. And Chen Shao plans to build Longteng Group into such a large-scale military research and production company here, but the scale of Longteng Group is already very large, covering countless subsidiaries and sub-groups. According to Chen Shao's initial plan, he wanted to spin off some companies or groups of Longteng Group, let them become independent, and focus on military affairs wholeheartedly in the future. It no longer accepts the jurisdiction of Longteng Group, and is under the royal jurisdiction like Longteng Group, and forms a good competitiveness with each other.

Chen Shao did this not for World War II, but for the Chinese military industry to go further in the future. This is the trend of the development of the military industry in the future, and preparing in advance is also conducive to taking the lead. Since World War II, the pace of new military changes has accelerated, the balance of strategic forces has been imbalanced, and the competition in comprehensive national strength has been fierce. While carrying out military strategic readjustments, various countries are also actively formulating new military industrial policies and development plans and plans, and continue to promote the transformation and benign development of the military industry. It can be expected that in the future, the strategic position and role of the military industry will continue to be strengthened, the readjustment of the industrial structure and product mix will be further deepened, the production of weapons and equipment in major countries is expected to continue to grow, and the innovation capability of military science and technology will continue to increase.

The military strategy, the national defense science and technology strategy, the military industrial policy, and the military industrial reform plan strive to give full play to the leading role and potential foundation of the military industry in the country's strategic forces. Chen Shao wants to formulate a "preemptive" military strategy, and this military strategy clearly defines the military industry as an important part of the "new three-in-one" strategic force. A military industry full of vitality, innovation, and competitiveness is of vital importance and indispensable to China's national defense.

There is also a very important goal for integrating China's existing military industry in this way. In fact, civilian science and technology are closely related to military science and technology, and the development of military science and technology can better promote the progress of civilian science and technology. It is only necessary to enable the military industry to provide high-quality equipment and support for the armed forces, and at the same time, it is also required to serve the development of the country's economy and the scientific and technological base and to promote the formation of a high-tech and competitive industrial system. The military industry will continue to make important contributions to the development of the national economy and science and technology after many years of investment and development in dual-use technologies and dual-use products.

At present, one of the challenges facing China's military industry is that it is necessary to reduce its excess general capacity while maintaining effective large-scale production capacity, and it will pursue large-scale specialization on the basis of realizing collectivization.

With the help of the Red Police Base, China's dual-use technology has a strong complementarity, accounting for half of the country. In addition, due to the results achieved in the continuous development of dual-use technology and dual-use products for more than 10 years, the increasing role of the military industry in economic and scientific and technological development, and the entry of new products into the field of the military industry, it is expected that the proportion of civilian products in the military industry will further increase on the basis of about 50 percent of the current products.

In order to more favorably promote the "conversion of military to civilian use" and "civilian to civilian" and thus further enhance the degree of integration between military and civilian use, the planned development of dual-use technology has become an important development trend in the integration of military industry and civilian use, and is also the main development direction of China's development at present. Dual-use technology is a technology that can be used both for the military and for civilian use.

Chen Shao attaches great importance to dual-use technology, mainly because the development of many high technologies that are vital to the military, such as computers, telecommunications, advanced materials, and advanced technology, has been mainly driven by the civilian market. From an economic point of view, the main reason is that the cost of high-tech weapons has risen for a time, and civilian forces are usually needed to promote the further development of military scientific research.

After the integration, China's military industry will develop in several directions, forming competitiveness and complementarity. However, there are still two years to go before World War II, which gives Chen Shao a relatively large time to prepare, and two years is enough time to integrate all the military factories in the country.

And for some things, Chen Shao also began to plan to gradually let the Chinese high-level know that the integration of military factories is the best opportunity. But this matter needs to be done slowly, and there is no hurry.

The last page of the report is the production capacity of China's military industry at this time, and this data vividly reflects China's war potential today. When he saw the string of numbers, the corners of Chen Shao's mouth couldn't help but show a happy smile.

From the establishment of the first tank factory by the Red Police, Chen Shao has established a complete military production base in the southwest, Guangzhou, northeast, southeast, northwest, Xinjiang Plateau, and Menggan regions. And many of them are underground production plants, and these military production bases are the biggest capital for Chen Shao to win World War II.

As long as the war began, these military production bases continued to produce weapons and equipment. From bullets to airplanes and tanks, they can be produced quickly. And it can quickly replenish troops, because many of these military industrial bases are not far from the military station, and they all have a good transportation environment. Whether it is a road, a highway or even a railway or air, it can be quickly transported to the front line of the war.

Chen Shao attaches great importance to the naval shipbuilding industry, to the research and development of strategic weapons, and to the production of conventional weapons on land and in the air.
