Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

"The engineering and technical personnel we send to tropical countries to assist in construction are only working temporarily in each country and will leave after their mission is completed. Labor export is different."

"In the form of labor dispatch, we provide experienced workers and technicians to employers in desert countries, sign formal contracts, and work long hours."

Labor costs in developed regions remain high, including the United States, the West, and island countries.

The same is true in the major desert oil producing countries.

Western industrial development has reached a bottleneck period, leading to increased labor costs.

The desert countries have become rich from oil.

Even ordinary people can get a little money from the oil dividend.

It’s probably similar to the iron-clad crops of the Eight Banners descendants.

Even if you do nothing, you can still get the money.

How many people are willing to earn money through labor when they can just do nothing?

After listening to General Liu's explanation, Li Jinjun suddenly understood.

I haven't thought about this section.

"Our country's skilled workers and technicians are hardworking, of excellent quality, and have a certain level of culture and skills."

General Liu told everyone in detail that looking at the desert countries, 40% of them relied on oil to make money, while the other 60% did not become rich overnight due to the emergence of oil and still lived a backward life.

In just twenty years, a clear gap between the rich and the poor has emerged in the desert area.

The wealthy oil-producing countries have begun to experience labor shortages.

As the people of the country have received money from oil dividends, they have become disdainful of hard and tiring jobs.

These wealthy countries have only two choices.

Or introduce labor from neighboring poor countries.

But then again, the people in the surrounding poor countries have a low level of education and may not be willing to work diligently.

For many years, Longguo has continued to provide aid and reconstruction work to tropical regions.

The quality of Longguo's workers and technicians has been highly recognized by many tropical countries.

Through overseas aid, Longguo has trained its troops and established its national reputation.

He once helped the Sang Kingdom build a modern railway.

The aid workers from Longguo overcame various construction difficulties and finally built a large railway line that met transportation standards across the two countries within the specified time.

Due to historical reasons, there is a lot of exchanges between desert countries and tropical regions.

The desert country has some understanding of whether the performance of construction workers sent from Dragon Country is good or bad.

before coming.

General Liu had a brief communication with the old leader.

Once this plan is implemented.

The composition of labor export will adopt the method of old bringing up new.

Arrange some comrades who have experience in aid construction to serve as team leaders and managers.

Help other workers and educated youth who are going abroad for the first time and participating in labor export to adapt to life abroad as quickly as possible.

One foreign aid worker can bring with him at least 20 to 30 workers.

Learn to respect local customs and display the spirit of hard work.

Complete the job at hand to perfection.

The export of labor is not only an export of labor, but also an important step for Longguo to move towards the world.

"Crash..."

There was thunderous applause.

If you don't speak, you won't understand; if you don't argue, you won't understand.

General Liu's words opened up a whole new line of thought for everyone.

Working overseas can not only solve the employment problems of some domestic workers and educated youth, but also increase the country's foreign exchange earnings.

At the same time, it can also bring the Dragon Country and the Desert Country closer together.

Desert countries are also third world countries.

The old leader and General Liu are confident that the local people will establish long-lasting friendships with the migrant workers from Longguo.

When it comes to ideological work and external cooperation.

The Dragon Kingdom has always had its own way.

Domestic personnel go to work in various desert countries and are paid US dollars per month.

After receiving the money, you must send it back to your country.

According to the first phase, 10,000 workers will be sent to the desert area.

The monthly salary is US$200 per person.

Added together, it’s 200 million US dollars.

In a year, that's 2400 million in foreign exchange.

If the number of people increases, the amount of foreign exchange will also increase.

Maybe in one year, Longguo could get 100 million in foreign exchange.

The educated youth sent overseas to work had at least a junior high school education.

If you have been to school and have education, you can learn anything quickly.

Another group of production line workers, although their educational background is not as good as that of the educated youth, have their advantages.

The workers have worked in the factory for many years, are familiar with various mechanical equipment, and have rich production experience.

Once you arrive at your post, you can start working immediately.

"Comrades, it's getting late. If you have anything to say, leave it for tomorrow's meeting. Everyone go back and get some rest."

General Liu glanced at his watch.

He told everyone to go back and have a good sleep, and go to the central agency meeting with full spirits tomorrow.

"Old Commander, I...I have a few words to report to you in private."

Everyone walked out of the venue one by one. Li Jinjun stopped and looked back at General Liu.

"Jinjun, is it that the work of the Fifth Machine Department has encountered difficulties and needs assistance from higher authorities?"

After everyone left, General Liu asked in a friendly manner.

If any difficulties arise, the higher authorities will certainly provide full assistance.

General Liu, who had long served as the head of military scientific research departments, also served as the first Minister of the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building.

When the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building was first established, there was no suitable candidate for minister.

General Liu served as minister temporarily for a few months, leaving behind this bond of friendship.

Li Jinjun said bitterly, "Commander, the problems faced by the Fifth Machine Department cannot be explained in a few words. I would like to ask you to help us persuade Comrade Lin Kaifeng and ask them to help the Northern Machinery Company sell some weapons and equipment to our Fifth Machine Department."

General Liu frowned and said, "Is the funding problem in your department so serious?"

"Ugh……"

Li Jinjun's eyes were a little red.

It's not serious, but it's the end of the road.

Military-industrial enterprises must implement the military-to-civilian policy as soon as possible.

The Ministry will provide financial assistance.

"Don't worry if you laugh at me, old minister. The minister and I are just short of taking a bowl and going to other industrial ministries to beg for alms."

"Two years ago, the research unit below developed a domestic sniper rifle for the frontline troops. There were many problems with this rifle. Technical experts suggested to me several times that we upgrade the existing sniper rifles, but the department had no money..."

Li Jinjun said bitterly.

In 1979, the Dragon Kingdom, unable to tolerate any more, launched a self-defense counterattack against the Monkey Kingdom.

During the war, the Monkey Army used a large number of Soviet-made sniper rifles.

These weapons caused considerable casualties to the front-line troops.

The military scientific research department copied the first domestically produced sniper rifle of Longguo, the Type 79 sniper rifle, by using the captured Soviet sniper rifles.

In 81, 79 sniper rifles were used by the frontline troops of the great powers.

After using it for a period of time, the soldiers reported that the sniper rifle had problems such as substandard accuracy, low hit rate, and excessive bullet penetration.

The Fifth Ministry of Machine Building organized a meeting of experts to discuss the upgrading of sniper rifles.

Due to funding issues, nothing happened in the end.

There were performance problems with domestic sniper rifles, and soldiers were bleeding on the front lines. Li Jinjun, who was in charge of specific business work in the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building, was more anxious than anyone else.
