Chapter 69: Fiery Cross Reef

"That's right!" I said to Zhou Guiwang on the phone: "As you know, China's economy is facing a period of opportunity during this period. ”

"The battalion commander is talking about trade with the Soviet Union!" Zhou Guiwang asked.

"It should be said that it is not just Sino-Soviet trade!" I said: "Our country has been closed to the outside world for a long time, and now we have trade with neighboring countries, which will obviously stimulate the rapid development of our economy. ”

"Yes!" Zhou Guiwang agreed: "However, Sino-Soviet trade is more obvious, and I was shocked when I heard about exchanging canned food for airplanes a few days ago...... I heard what it is, the project made by the advanced wholesale company, this is a good start! ”

"Hmm." It sounds like Zhou Guiwang didn't know that I actually did it.

However, this is not surprising, there are not many people who know that advanced companies are connected with our synthetic camp, and this era is an era of relatively closed information, so naturally it will not be spread far away.

"I mean." I continued: "It's going to stimulate the economy in a big way, and of course it's going to create a lot of jobs, but the people don't seem to be ready for it." In other words, on the one hand, the factories need a large number of workers, and on the other hand, there are a large number of jobless vagrants in society, which would have been a good thing. But most of these homeless people are unable to work after entering the factory because they do not have the skills and knowledge to do so. This will lead to a series of problems such as a large-scale decline in the quality of goods and low work efficiency of workers. ”

"The battalion commander is right!" Zhou Guiwang agreed: "We have also seen some clues on this point, which is mainly the contradiction between the rapid economic development and the slow improvement of the people...... As soon as it is opened, all kinds of technologies and all kinds of funds will pour in. It's relatively fast. Especially after being affected by the price differential of such light and heavy industries as the USSR. On the other hand. The improvement of the common people is a slow process, just like you told me that in order to develop, we must pay close attention to education, because only education can provide a large number of talents of all kinds for all walks of life. But education is a hundred-year project......"

"We can choose a compromise." I say.

When Zhou Guiwang said this, I remembered that I really told him this before, but it was about basic education, and basic education should "start from the baby", which is really important, but it is far from quenching the thirst.

"A compromise?" Hearing this, Zhou Guiwang couldn't help but be stunned.

"Yes!" I said, "Actually, it's not that our country is devoid of talent. We have a population of more than one billion people, and we have all kinds of talents, but these talents are too few and too few compared to more than one billion people. So what I mean by this is that these people will be used to open vocational schools that will be used to train the unemployed in society and provide them with jobs as appropriate...... You must know that most of the homeless people want to find a job, so I am sure they will be more than willing to do this kind of training. ”

There is no doubt about this, you must know that at this time, there were several large-scale disarmaments in succession, coupled with the fact that the return of the educated youth to the city directly led a large number of unemployed people in society.

These unemployed people have to solve the problem of eating, and if they want to eat, they all have to find employment. At this time, there are relatively few jobs or it can be said that there are relatively few people who can work, so there is a problem of several people or even dozens of people competing for a job.

Thereupon. If they hear that this vocational school can provide them with jobs, they will not want to learn the truth, even if it may take them months or even years longer.

"That's a good idea!" Zhou Guiwang on the other end of the phone thought about it and replied: "We were also aware of this problem before, but it was carried out in the way that the technical team went to the countryside. But now that we think about it, the effect of this method is very limited, on the one hand, we don't know who needs training, so we can only organize the villagers to carry out intensive learning. On the other hand, the time is short, and the villagers can learn very little. In addition, it is impossible to provide timely guidance to the villagers, and no one can ask them when they really have questions. Now you say so, if you can run such a school...... Most of these problems can be solved! ”

I think it's true when Zhou Guiwang said this, it seems that they have recognized this problem and made some efforts, but as Zhou Guiwang said, this kind of effort has not had much effect.

Then I quickly thought that the technical group and the centralized teaching method in the countryside that Zhou Guiwang mentioned were likely to be the prototype of vocational schools, that is to say, with the passage of time and the accumulation of experience, they would eventually think of setting up vocational schools for systematic teaching, and I just advanced this result.

"Also." I said: "We can also unite with all kinds of enterprises in the society, after all, the state lacks funds at this time, we can let enterprises voluntarily donate, donate to schools, etc., I believe that capable enterprises are very willing to do such things, because this is also to provide them with qualified skilled workers or even advertise for them to enhance their popularity, so that we can achieve a win-win cooperation and mutual benefit!" ”

"Good!" Zhou Guiwang couldn't help laughing: "The battalion commander even thought of this, and the battalion commander, you gave us another big gift!" ”

This last sentence was my impromptu idea...... Originally, I still wanted to donate in my name, but when I think about it, where did I get so much money as a soldier? Later, it seemed a little bad for Zhou Guiwang to know that I was the person behind the scenes of the advanced company, so he casually expanded it to cooperate with various enterprises in the society.

In this way, the strength of the more people is greater, and the more burdens the enterprise can bear.

As soon as I hung up the phone, I let go of one thing on my mind...... In this way, at least there will be fewer detours, and the money earned by advanced companies can be regarded as partially giving back to the society.

Suddenly, another phone rang...... It was the headquarters' line, so I didn't dare to pick up the phone without thinking.

"Take a trip to the headquarters!" Commander Zhang's voice came from inside.

"Yes!" I replied.

Listening to Commander Zhang's tone, I knew that something was wrong, and this incident may not be small.

If it was in the past, I would be 100% sure that it was a military thing, but now that there are advanced companies and making so much money, it's a little uncertain.

There is a saying that others will inevitably be red when they see that advanced companies are developing so well and so quickly, and now is a period of cracking down on economic crimes, and it is difficult to guarantee that someone will investigate advanced companies and involve our synthetic camp.

From this point of view, it is really inappropriate for this army to do business, because it will more or less affect the mentality of me and even every soldier in the army, and this mentality is very important on the battlefield...... The battlefield is a place where there is no room for distraction.

But luckily, I soon learned that Commander Zhang didn't come to me because of this.

"There is something wrong in the South China Sea, and there is a bit of friction with the Vietnamese devils." Commander Zhang said.

"Hmm!" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, this devil is really not ambiguous, not to mention competing with us on land, he even got to the sea.

"Here's the way." "A few months ago, UNESCO announced the Global Sea Level Joint Measurement Program, and decided to establish 200 ocean observation stations around the world, and China is responsible for building five, including one in Xisha and one in Nansha," Commander Zhang said. When we built a station at Fiery Cross Reef in the Spratlys, we were blocked by armed Vietnamese transport ships......"

Hearing this, I couldn't help but sigh, this is what we call the 3.14 naval battle in modern times, although I don't know much about this naval battle, but I know that this naval battle is won by our army's absolute advantage, so I don't feel at ease.

"This question is not simple!" Commander Zhang frowned and said: "This Fiery Cross Reef and the nine surrounding islands and reefs are all close to Vietnam but far away from us, for example, this Fiery Cross Reef is only 250 nautical miles away from Vietnam, but it is 740 nautical miles away from us, and it is also 540 nautical miles away from Hainan Island. ”

Having fought the Falklands Naval Battle, of course, I know what this distance means, and the distance between our army and the target is about three times that of the Vietnamese army, which means that our reaction time, reinforcement time, and even fuel and supplies have to be considered much more than the Vietnamese army.

"These objective factors are secondary." Commander Zhang continued: "At present, the strength of our navy has far surpassed that of the army, but we must consider the problem of the Soviet army stationed in Cam Ranh Bay, and the problem that the Vietnamese army itself is equipped with Su-22 fighters with Soviet assistance. ”

"Hmm!" On the other hand, I also knew that Commander Zhang had already done his homework on this situation, and even combined the experience of the Falklands naval battle.

"What do you think?" Then Commander Zhang set his eyes on me.

"I ......" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, and after hesitating, I replied: "Commander, I am not familiar with the equipment of our navy and air force......

Commander Zhang had obviously been prepared for a long time, and he threw a stack of materials in front of me with a "horn".

When I flipped through the information, Commander Zhang frowned and said: "The Vietnamese Su-22 has a speed of 800 kilometers per hour and a combat radius of 1,142 kilometers, and it can reach the sky over Fiery Cross Reef in about half an hour, and it can launch air-to-ground missiles. And the combat radius of our army's J-7 and J-8 is only 800 kilometers, and there is no Fiery Cross Reef at all! ”

This is the dilemma of our army...... You must know that the most important thing in naval warfare is air supremacy, and at this time, our air force had neither the technology of refueling in the air nor the aircraft carrier, so it was beyond the reach of targets beyond 800 kilometers, that is, more than 400 nautical miles.

This is also an important reason why we have been so passive on the South China Sea issue. (To be continued......)
