Chapter 638: How to spend so much money
At this time, Lou Dong no longer knew what Li Zhao and the others were talking about, and he had no contact with any turbofan engine at all, and he didn't know how to participate in such content except for a confused face. But apparently not everyone is like him, and the chief engineer of the military factory is more excited, apparently he knows.
At this time, Father Su asked: "These estimates don't cost much, we have more funds left this year than last year, last year we ended up with more than one billion, this year there are almost three billion left, and the current retained funds are nearly five billion." Next year, we will retain more 20% of our profits, which is estimated to reach about 10 billion, and if we spend money at this rate, that is to say, we will have no less than 10 billion funds left by the end of next year."
Li Zhao also had a big head when he heard it, but he really had no choice, the construction of the factory really cost a lot of money, and it was similar to what Li Zhao thought, it was estimated that it would look like three or four billion yuan a year, but because someone made trouble back then, it was estimated that he could not leave so much money every year, so he found a superior leader again, and later set it into two layers, and now there are more and more things to export, and the profits will not be used up at all.
No matter how hard Li Zhao spends money, he doesn't have the ability to spend tens of billions of dollars every year, you must know that there are a lot of projects in the factory every year, more than 20 research institutes, on average, each research institute has dozens of projects, no matter how many researchers are enough, but there are so many research institutes, plus the corresponding construction and the like, it will not take a billion ah, and the bulk of the money is still the various construction and expansion in the factory.
Just like the tank that Li Zhao is testing now, because the electronic system is relatively poor, the money spent on electronics is not too high, and it is still a trial production, the price is already very high, but it does not exceed 10 million units, and after mass production, it is estimated that the cost is only about 3 million, 10 billion, how many tanks are enough to build? More than 3,000, yes, you can directly build more than 3,000 units, which is enough to arm ten divisions of the size of Division Commander Zhang.
So it's not that Li Zhao doesn't spend a lot of money, but that there are too many 10 billion in this era, and it is not what Li Zhao can spend at all, let's just say that the turbofan engine to be developed next, although a large number of titanium alloys are used, but the price of an engine is about one million yuan, of course, this is the money of this era is really valuable, after all, this price is about 40 million yuan in the future, and Li Zhao is only 100 million yuan if he makes 100 million units.
So for such a fund, Li Zhao is really a little powerless, after all, what he can do is also limited, with his braincase, at most, it is just three or four projects at the same time. Now he already has a die forging machine project under his name, and he will be ready to install it after the New Year; The generator project is also ready for trial production after the New Year; The blast furnace project, the design stage, but he doesn't worry too much, this is the deputy director of the plant.
Then there are the tank and self-propelled artillery projects, which are his main attack, but the self-propelled artillery is ready for the chief engineer of the military factory to take charge, he is ready to play soy sauce, and then there are the turbofan engines, test benches, wind tunnels and other facilities to be carried out next, so there are enough projects under his hands.
At this time, not only Li Zhao was worried, but other people were also worried, there was really no place to invest so much money, of course, it was not that it could not be spent, but other places that the 998 Factory could not interfere with, such as road construction, not to mention 10 billion, 1 trillion was not enough to spend, but obviously the 998 Factory could not participate in this.
Faced with this situation, what else can be done, Li Zhao had to say: "It's really not good, hand over part of the finance, we were preparing to have more than 300 million yuan a year, and it felt almost the same, but I didn't expect that there would be so many more at once, and now this situation is really not something we can use up." At most, we are carrying out large-scale technological transformation of several factories now, such as military factories, where the equipment is generally backward and can be invested."
After hearing this, Father Su nodded and said, "That's the only way, then after you go back, think about what equipment needs to be updated in the factory, make the plan as soon as possible, and then we will complete these as soon as possible next year, but although the money is sufficient, it is not allowed to be wasted, and I think everyone understands what I mean."
One of the reasons why the military factory was assigned to the 998 factory was probably that the superiors wanted to replace the old equipment in the factory
It is estimated that it will take hundreds of millions, how can I not find a way to get the wool of the 998 factory? Therefore, it was zoned over, so that it could save research funds, and it would allow the 998 factory to pay for the military factory to upgrade its equipment, but how much money could it cost?
However, after saying this, the director of the military factory in charge of the military industry was happy, without him, the production capacity of the factory is bound to be stronger, and it will definitely be able to leave a group of peers far behind.
Although he was very excited, someone was calmer, and then the chief engineer of the military factory said: "If we update the equipment, it is estimated that a lot of equipment needs to be redesigned.
After Li Zhao heard this, he also knew that this was indeed the case, so he said that the depth of drilling, artillery drilling, where can ordinary industrial production be compared? Therefore, it is necessary to develop exclusive equipment for the military factory, Li Zhao has no big problem with this, that is, he will be a little busy, after all, there is a mature team in the machine tool, and they have been conducting relevant research, Li Zhao only needs to follow it.
Li Zhao said at this time; "That's fine, you've probably mapped the equipment too, right? Send the surveying and mapping over, we will go to the machine tool research team to have a special meeting to discuss it, now they are very experienced, this project should be able to move forward relatively smoothly. Moreover, after we develop the equipment, we can also sell it to brother units, and we can also enrich our machine tool products, but we can kill multiple birds with one stone."
Now what the factory needs is to try to find a way to spend money, this project is just right, can become an extension of the follow-up research and development project of the machine tool, at this time Li Zhao also broadened his thinking, in fact, not only these, there are other can also be studied, such as rolling equipment, the original rolling mill rolling production capacity, now it seems to be insufficient, now it can also be strengthened, in addition to these, you can also develop in other aspects, such as the equipment needed for shipbuilding.
Thinking of this, Li Zhao continued: "Deputy Director An, our rolling production seems to be a little unable to keep up with demand, right? Is it possible to open a new project, you are an expert in this area, we can't lose the advantage, right? In addition to this, we can also develop other research on machining machine tools, such as various special equipment for shipbuilding, and now we can also join in, and now the country is also vigorously developing the shipbuilding industry."
Father Su nodded at this time and said, "This is also a breakthrough, just like that, you have too many projects in your hands, can you be busy?" After all, some projects are really difficult to get off the ground without you taking the lead."
Li Zhao said at this time: "Don't worry, it's a matter of setting up a few more research groups, we now have a lot of mechanical talents to train out, at most I will take the lead, and if there are problems that can't be handled, I will take them to a meeting, and study and study together, you see the current generator project, in fact, the main work is no longer completed by me, I just provide ideas to them, and the solution is mainly dependent on them."
After almost two years of development, the research strength of the factory is actually very strong, that is, the machine tool, if there is no major improvement, basically the personnel of the institute can basically complete, especially on the basis of Li Zhao's design for functional extension, and now the institute has done very slippery.
After listening to Li Zhao's words, the factory suddenly equaled at least dozens of more projects, but in terms of spending money, to be honest, it also doesn't cost much, just take the military factory as an example, it is only a few hundred million, the new steel rolling equipment, after research, is at most tens of millions of dollars, and the new research projects, it is even less, it is estimated that all down, can approve 18 million even if it is very much, this cost is sometimes really very difficult.
Seeing that the industry was almost done, Father Li said, "If there is really no place to spend it, should we make large-scale investment in agriculture? Didn't Li Zhao have a plan for future farming, why don't you start experimenting with that? Obviously, we will have a large number of farms next year, and the entire town near Lijia Village should be included, and if we build that kind of future agriculture, it will really cost a lot of money, so why don't you try it?"
Li Zhao was shocked when he heard it, good guy, his father really dared to think about it, you have to know that
The future agricultural cost is really too big, in terms of the current situation, to build a modern glass greenhouse, the future cost is estimated to be two or three hundred thousand per mu, put it now, it is estimated to be more than 10,000, if Lijia Village counts the surrounding towns, there are at least 100,000 acres of land, if such a is built, as long as half, it will cost 500 million, plus others, a super large farm is possible to invest seven or eight hundred million.
