The industrial construction of the Central Plains Liberated Area has achieved remarkable results, and the speed of urbanization is surprisingly fast, especially Luoyang, a few years ago when the Luoyang Uprising was the city's permanent population of only a hundred thousand people, at that time no one expected that in less than five years, the city's population has unbelievably soared to more than 1.5 million, and around her, Gongyi, Xin'an and other original small counties have also rapidly expanded with the vigorous development of industry and mining into a real city, The total population of the entire industrial zone in western Henan is no less than 5 million (including the rural population), and even a little bit of the urban belt can be vaguely seen
The speed of urbanization is so fast, it will definitely bring a lot of problems, whether it is transportation or living conditions, the current Luoyang is simply not satisfactory, if it is not for the Central Plains Liberated Area People's Government has been desperately building railways and highways in recent years, Hu Weidong is using the mobile board house of later generations to save the emergency, Luoyang will become the future of Mexico City is really hard to say.
Luoyang is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, the mountains and rivers in the territory are vertical and horizontal, the west is based on the Qinling Mountains, the east is adjacent to Songyue, the north is close to the Taihang Mountain and there is the danger of the Yellow River, the south looks at the Funiu Mountain, there is "the river and the mountain arch Dai, the situation is in the premature" said, here is the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties and the birthplace of Chinese civilization and the Chinese nation, and now it has become the largest industrial center in China, so the Red Party has generally regarded this place as the first choice for the future capital. In this way, Luoyang's urban construction became even more important.
In later generations, because the government generally lacked the awareness of overall planning, and also lacked professionals in this area, there were countless problems in the process of urban construction, not to mention the huge waste caused by demolition and construction, not to mention the huge waste caused by demolition and demolition, taking the inconspicuous urban drainage system as an example, the Chinese cities in the 21st century are even inferior to the sewer system built by the Germans in Qingdao more than 100 years ago, which shows how huge the gap between China and the Western powers exists in terms of urban planning. However, now that he has launched comprehensive cooperation with Germany, Hu Weidong will naturally not let go of this good opportunity, and he specially hired a number of urban planning experts from Germany to come to China to guide us in urban planning and construction.
Originally, according to Hu Weidong's idea. Luoyang is the future national capital. Sooner or later, the population could increase to 10 million or 20 million, and in order to avoid future trouble, he hoped that the expansion of Luoyang City would be designed according to the population of 20 million. However, German experts generally believe that with China's level of industrialization, it is unlikely that a megalopolis with a population of more than 5 million will emerge within a few decades. You know, even Germany didn't have such a big city at this time. But Hu Weidong knew how many people there were in Beijing in later generations. Therefore, it is still insisted that the German experts design the urban area as large as possible. But German experts told him that because the Yiluo Plain (the area is only more than 700 square kilometers, it is less than one-third of the total area of the current urban area of Shanghai. ). Coupled with the fact that Luoyang City and its surroundings are full of important cultural heritages, the population of Luoyang City is already the limit to 5 million, and if you want to live comfortably, a population of 2 million is more suitable
For a capital like China, 2 million is obviously too small for a population, but Hu Weidong considers that German experts have calculated the average floor height of Luoyang at present, and that sooner or later the factories in Luoyang's urban area will be relocated to the suburbs and beyond, so there is still a lot of potential to be tapped. But even if Hu Weidong's comments are corrected, German experts still believe that the suitable population of Luoyang is around 5 million, and at most 10 million, which is undoubtedly much worse than Beijing. However, German experts are not only considering Luoyang, they also pointed out that the two cities of Zhengzhou and Kaifeng, which are not far from them, have the potential to develop into megacities, and Hu Weidong's eyes suddenly lit up, as long as Zhengzhou and Kaifeng can accommodate more than 10 million people, then a smaller urban area of Luoyang is not a big problem at all, and even in a sense, a smaller political center is more in line with the trend of later generations.
Later, the development direction of Luoyang was just as they designed, and eventually became the political center and Shijie-level cultural center of China, and its original industrial center function was shared by Zhengzhou and Kaifeng, which had developed into a large city with a population of 10 million, and did better than Luoyang at the beginning. With the drive of this "troika", Henan Province has also been able to rank first in the country's economy, industry and population for a long time
In addition to the distribution of industrial cities, the basic layout of each city and other macro aspects, German experts also put forward their own insights on the details of transportation network lines, drainage systems, civil air defense projects, etc., and have trained many qualified talents in urban planning for China, Chinese people will never forget their warm help and the precious friendship of the German people
Cities are important, but as the largest grain production base under the control of the Red Party, the rural work in the liberated areas of the Central Plains was also highly valued by Hu Weidong. As an industrial party, Hu Weidong had always advocated the establishment of a large number of state farms, but when he came to power, he found that this was not an easy task, because state farms should have a high yield, either a high degree of mechanization, or a high level of consciousness among farm workers, or a high quality of farm cadres.
With the rapid development of industrialization in the Central Plains Liberated Areas and the continuous expansion of the armed forces, the concentration of qualified personnel in the cities and the armed forces has become more and more concentrated, and the problem of a lack of outstanding cadres in the rural areas has become increasingly apparent; in addition, in the past two years, the area and population of the Central Plains Liberated Areas have increased rapidly, and the number of stalls has become larger and larger, and the proportion of state-owned farms in the rural economy of the Central Plains Liberated Areas has gradually decreased. In addition, the lack of fuel and electricity also greatly hampered the expansion and expansion of state farms, as cities and armies certainly had priority access to resources.
As a result, Hu Weidong was well aware that before the end of this industrialization boom and the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the long-term prospect of more agrarian routes had to be put on hold for the time being, and that a rural economic system that was more suitable for China's current national conditions must be found.
Although this system also has many shortcomings, it has extremely low requirements for the quality of rural cadres, and as long as they are not too bastard, they can obtain a yield that is not too bad by relying on the efforts of the peasants themselves, which seems to be in line with the current situation in the liberated areas of the Central Plains, but Hu Weidong soon realized that he had not thought it through and gave up this idea.
