Chapter 213: Construction Achievements

"Visiting Ambassador, please say a few words to the students! You are also the honorary president of Sichuan University, and these are all your protégés! Zhang Lan said with a smile.

Qiao Yu did not refuse, but came to the podium of the auditorium of Sichuan University in the cheers of everyone, the teachers and students of Sichuan University and the guests who came to watch the ceremony all gathered together, many reporters held their cameras, kept taking pictures, Qiao Yu since he served as the governor of Sichuan, is a news figure, every time there are unexpected actions, the country's largest university officially built successfully, but also a sensational thing in the country, everyone is extremely concerned, reporters are also eager to get enough news topics from here.

Qiao Yu came to the middle of the podium and cleared his throat first: "Fellow students of Sichuan University, the teachers belong to you today, Sichuan University, as the largest institution of higher learning in China, can only be successfully built in two years, which is soaked in the efforts of countless people, here I propose that everyone thank Mr. Zhang Lan, Minister of Education, and your president, Mr. Zhang Taiyan, Mr. Zhang Lan personally supervises the work, it can be said that every inch of Sichuan University has the sweat of Minister Zhang, and Mr. Taiyan is recruiting talents everywhereSichuan University can have the top teachers in the country is inseparable from Mr. Taiyan's efforts! ”

After Qiao Yu finished speaking, all the teachers and students and the guests who watched the ceremony clapped their hands together, and the applause was extraordinarily loud, which was also the honor that Zhang Lan and Zhang Taiyan deserved, the applause gradually fell, Qiao Yu waved his hand slightly: "Students, today I stand here and want to discuss with you about your future responsibilities, the Republic of China is the country of the people, everyone is the master of the country, this master is not easy to do, there is a heavy responsibility on his shoulders."

Last year, Sichuan's total grain output increased by 30 percent, and on average, it was more than 430 catties on the head of every Sichuan person, and these 430 catties did not include sweet potatoes, beans and other miscellaneous grains, but were real rice and wheat. ”

The teachers and students present thought that Qiao Yu would continue to encourage everyone, but he did not expect Qiao Yu to talk about the construction achievements of Sichuan, which really surprised everyone, but after hearing this number, everyone also seemed extraordinarily excited, eating a full stomach is the dream that all Chinese have pursued for thousands of years, but did not expect Sichuan to come true, of course, everyone will not have any doubts about this number, because the food supply on the market is full, and the students from the countryside also know that their homes are full of grain for the first time, These cannot be faked, so everyone was even more excited, and immediately burst into warm applause.

Qiao Yu finally calmed everyone down: "Classmates, tell you that this number is not that I am showing off the exploits of Sichuan political axe to you, I hope you can understand why Sichuan can achieve such an achievement, our people have always been out of the way, said to rest, there is no time to rest, why in the former Qing Dynasty, everyone had to starve, and they couldn't eat enough!" The tyrannical rule of the Manchus coupled with wanton exploitation was certainly one reason, but I found that the grain yield per mu in the former Qing Dynasty was as low as it is now, and even if it was evenly distributed, everyone would still starve!

This requires us to explore the problem in depth, I will give just one example, most of the farm tools in the hands of the farmers in the former Qing Dynasty were made of wood, why? Don't you know that iron farming tools are sharper and easier to use? No! But the Manchu Qing Dynasty can not provide a sufficient amount of steel, it can not produce enough agricultural tools, the price of agricultural tools is naturally beyond the scope of the people's commitment, since the Yucheng Iron and Steel Plant was completed and put into operation, last year a total of 130,000 tons of pig iron, 70,000 tons of steel, 40,000 tons of rails, this output is almost one and a half times the heyday of the Hanyang Iron Works, it is with these steel as the foundation, Sichuan can smoothly build the Sichuan-Han Railway, and it can also provide high-quality and inexpensive iron farm tools, with iron farm tools, Naturally, agricultural productivity will increase, and it will be easier to reclaim wasteland.

Of course, these steel also supplied the production of Sichuan Arsenal, it is with our own steel, the weapons produced in Sichuan are about half lower than the price of imports, here I want to tell the students a very simple truth, cannon and butter are one and the same, in last year Sichuan introduced synthetic ammonia technology from Germany, synthetic ammonia is the raw material of gunpowder on the one hand, on the other hand, it is an important part of chemical fertilizer, agriculture wants to develop intensive cultivation is not enough, but also to provide enough nutrients for plants, The gradual promotion of chemical fertilizers in Sichuan is also an important reason for the increase in agricultural production.

The technology of synthetic ammonia requires a high-temperature and high-pressure environment, it needs to use high-quality steel, and this steel is also the material needed to produce large-caliber artillery, military technology and civilian technology are wonderfully intertwined, why the great powers can dominate the world, occupy territory everywhere, why their people can enjoy a rich life, everything is not difficult to understand, we hope that China can become rich and strong, just learn to build strong ships and cannons, just the introduction of the Ming Cook Republic is not enough, What we need is a full set of industrialized facilities.

That is, we must use the mode of operation of industrialization to change our country, only in this way can we really change the face of Sichuan and even China, the process of realizing industrialization is not a simple matter, what is needed is a variety of talents, this is what I said about everyone's responsibility, you are not only carrying the hope of your parents and relatives, or the hope of this country, only if you use the knowledge you have learned in industrial production, China can have hope! ”

There is no doubt that Qiao Yu is cheering for science and engineering, and he is also announcing to the world that he attaches importance to science and engineering talents, but what everyone really cares about is Qiao Yu's new concept and the achievements of Sichuan construction.

Yucheng Iron and Steel Plant was established only for more than two years, put into operation for about a year, and was able to surpass Hanyang Iron Works, it was too shocking, according to the proportion of steel in the country, Sichuan also accounted for more than sixty percent, and now Hanyang Iron Works has relocated the main factory to Sichuan, once the Hanyang Iron Works is completely consumed, Yucheng Iron and Steel Plant will definitely grow into a behemoth, and it is not a dream to occupy more than ninety percent of the country's output.

And people with a heart also found a lot of profound things from Qiao Yu's words, what is called the guns produced by the Sichuan Arsenal are half cheaper than the imported ones, there is no doubt that this is a warning to other forces, Sichuan can produce more guns with the same money, that is to say, Sichuan has the confidence to fight with any force.

And Qiao Yu also mentioned special steel and synthetic ammonia technology, and the implication is also very clear, Sichuan has been able to produce special steel for large-caliber artillery, and can also produce explosives on a large scale, which are real threats, and whoever wants to fight Sichuan must weigh their own weight.

Of course, some people think that Qiao Yu is bragging, but the teachers and students of Sichuan University fully believe in the words of the tour envoy, Qiao Yu has undergone earth-shaking changes in Sichuan since he supervised Sichuan, and they are all immersed in a huge shock, especially those science and engineering students, who heard others tell them for the first time that the hope of strengthening the country and enriching the people is in them, which makes these young people who have not been deeply involved in the world boil.
