Rebirth in 1989: Creating the Chinese Technology Empire

Chapter 428 China’s Economic Takeoff: Exports Drive Economic Growth

In the conference room, Xu Huasheng expressed his views.

We must build, we must build, and we must build more. Four ships are never too few, and eight ships are never too many. As for the price, it is also cheaper. Things for home use are more advanced in performance but cheaper in price.

Xu Huasheng directly quoted the price of the bare boat at 50 billion yuan, which is less than one billion U.S. dollars. It is one-third cheaper than the price purchased in Pakistan. But the performance is much better than the one purchased by Pakistan. The power system uses advanced steam turbines, and the speed is directly increased to 32 knots.

At the same time, the functions of other systems have also been improved a lot. If Pakistan purchased a simple version, China itself used a top version. And this ship also reserves a lot of modification space to facilitate final modifications.

Not only are ships cheap, fighter planes are also cheap. The price of an S-14 for home use is directly halved, and it only costs 6000 million yuan. The price is only 1000 million US dollars, and it has higher configuration and stronger combat effectiveness.

"Mr. Liu, even if we don't use this ship for decades, we can recoup the cost and even make money by selling second-hand ships. If our military really doesn't like it after a few decades, we can directly Selling to other countries is also a good choice..."

In the conference room, Xu Huasheng's words made everyone laugh.

Yes, China has been using it for decades and then it really doesn’t look good anymore. It can make money by selling it directly to other countries. This thing is very difficult to build. For some countries with relatively weak shipbuilding capabilities, they will not be able to build this thing even if they are given decades.

China has been using it for a few years, but in the future it really doesn't look good. It feels that it is backward, so it will be retired directly and sold to its brother countries. It can even refit the entire fleet and sell it to them.

In the future, China's decommissioned equipment may still be very advanced and useful for many countries.

If no one really wants it, simply retire it and give it to the Coast Guard. Let the coast guard paint it and then drive it out for patrolling. Equipped with drones or helicopters, the duty capability will be absolutely awesome.

The meeting lasted until very late. After the meeting, Mr. Liu went directly to report the matter. Whether the ship can be built or not depends on whether the country agrees or not. After all, China's military expenditure is very small now, and every ship in the navy is expensive to build. The competition for funds is so fierce that everyone dislikes it.

A very simple example, building a large ship requires 5 billion yuan. If these 5 billion yuan are given to the Air Force to purchase fighter jets, a large number of them can be purchased.

For example, the J-10 that is about to be put into service will be purchased by the military for a sky-high price of 100 million yuan per unit. At 5 billion yuan, 50 J-10s can be purchased directly.

Not to mention the price of the entire fleet. The cost of one fleet is enough for the Air Force to buy hundreds of J-10s. This is the cost of the navy, which is why it is said that the navy of a great power.

Because small countries simply cannot afford a navy, which is too expensive. If you don’t have the money to give you an aircraft carrier fleet, you won’t be able to afford it. The annual maintenance cost of an aircraft carrier fleet is very high.

Although China has made a lot of money in the past two years, the national economy is still in its infancy. The country's economic strength is too weak and its military expenditure is too little. Xu Huasheng guessed that even if China approves construction, I am afraid that not much will be built.

However, it should be feasible to build one first and use it as a technology verification ship and training ship. First use a ship for technical verification and training. When China has money in the future, the technology will be verified and mature, and the soldiers will be trained. Just turn on the dumpling mode and you can build a large number of warships in a few years.

Now China is facing a slightly embarrassing problem. It has technology and equipment, but it is poor and does not have much money. Therefore, economic development is still the most important thing for China in the future.

Only when a country has money can it have sufficient confidence. Only in this way can we support more troops and equip them with more advanced weapons and equipment.

Without money, everything is in vain. The technology of the Soviet Union was so awesome, but it would be doomed without money.

A large ship stirred the heartstrings of Pakistan and China. China is entangled, and so is Pakistan. After all, this thing is too expensive. Even if Xu Huasheng has reduced profits a lot, it is still not cheap.

This is true for China, and it is also true for Pakistan. The purchase price alone for a fleet is US$55 billion. After purchasing it, training fees, maintenance fees, etc. will cost a lot of money every year. Pakistan is not a big dog in the Middle East, it has a lot of money.

Pakistan does not have much oil resources and cannot make money by selling oil. Although there is coal at home, the coal is the lowest grade lignite, and it is not mined yet.

If you don’t have much money, you need to be careful when buying things. After all, Xu Huasheng's price for S-14 was only US$ million.

If 55 billion US dollars were used to buy such advanced fighter jets, it would be enough to buy 275 of them. If Pakistan has 275 advanced fighter jets with performance no worse than F16. Then the strength of the Pakistan Air Force can surpass that of India.

Tangled, Pakistan is also tangled. I worry that I am too poor and that China has too many good things.

Busy in the entanglement, entangled in the busyness, time is also passing quietly.

In the land of China, another Spring Festival is coming.

The land of China once again ushered in the Spring Festival, and countless migrant workers returned home in great force. The number of migrant workers returning home this year is much larger than last year.

This excitement also tells everyone that China's economy is much better this year than last year.

It is indeed much better. In 1993, China's economy can be said to have directly created a miracle, with economic growth reaching an unprecedented %.

最恐怖的是出口额,1993年华夏出口额更是直接翻了很多倍。在过去的1993年,华夏总出口额高达3267亿美元。相对于1992年的1022亿美元来说翻了三倍还多。

Not only that, among export products, the export quota of cheap raw materials has been significantly reduced. In the past, most of the products exported by China were the cheapest resources.

Rare earths, petroleum, minerals, etc.

But this year, most of the products exported by China are high-tech products. Cars, mobile phones, home appliances, base station equipment, etc.

The industrial structure of export products has undergone significant changes.

Among such a large export volume, Huasheng companies are definitely the most dazzling stars. Because of these exported products, Huasheng companies account for more than half. To put it bluntly, the reason why exports increased so explosively in 1993 was entirely due to Huasheng companies. This shows the strength of Huasheng companies. This is also the main reason why China fully supports Huasheng companies. The reason is that companies that can make foreigners money are truly awesome companies.
