Chapter 565 Steel Base

Harvey, an expert on steel industry research at Cambridge University who is on vacation in Singapore, was introduced to Chen Jiaju by Jason in this situation.

Through understanding, this Harvey is not simple. He is only in his early 50s, but he used to be a guest of many British steel giants and has a very deep research on the steel industry.

Especially in recent years, Harvey's research topic has changed from how to expand production capacity as much as possible to the organization and performance of large steel bases. Harvey's new topic is in this era when everyone is crazy to produce and make money, and it is naturally coldly received by steel companies around the world.

Perhaps this is the so-called fate. Chen Jiaju is working on how to plan and set up his own large steel base. Harvey's project on the other side has just come to a standstill, and the two sides can be said to be at once.

After a detailed and long-term interview, Chen Jiaju immediately made a decision to hire Harvey as the chief technical worker of the steel base he was preparing to build.

After learning about Harvey's information through other channels, Chen Jiaju was more sure how accurate he was.

This Harvey is not only a steel expert engaged in theoretical research, but also a technical expert from the grassroots of the steel mill. Such a great talent with both practical experience and theoretical knowledge naturally makes Chen Jiaju happy.

Chen Jiaju came to this small town called Belulan. It was not easy to visit. It was only after several months of exploration that Harvey and his team finally determined the location of the planned steel base on the basis of Chen Jiaju's efforts for safety and stability.

Chen Jiaju knows that not only in this era, steel production is the most important data indicator to measure a country's largest industrial strength. Even in later generations, steel production is also a very important link for those developing countries that are eager to enter industrialization.

Especially in this year when the electronics industry has not yet appeared, if you want to occupy a place in the military, any country will not be backed by huge steel production, otherwise everything will be discussed. The construction of warships is like this, tanks and cannons, and even those fighters that can fly in the sky. Not all parts can be replaced with wood.

Chen Jiaju was very satisfied with Harvey's choice of this place at first sight. Among other things, from the perspective of safety alone, this place is very suitable.

This large open area is located in the hinterland of the Sabah region of North Borneo. Although a small bay is inserted diagonally, if heavy artillery regiments are set up in two places in the bay in the future, the enemy navy coming from the direction of Suluhai has little ability to threaten.

Of course, according to Chen Jiaju's setting, this must be the top priority of defense. In the future, a large number of air forces will be established in this strategic location to prevent enemy air strikes, which is the place that must be paid attention to in the future.

In fact, the most moving place for Chen Jiaju is the strategic location here.

A base-like existence has been established here in Belulan, which can be completely connected with points. In time, it can definitely drive the entire Sabah region of North Borneo.

"Jiaju, this place is good. In Borneo, which is mainly mountainous, it is really rare to have such a large area of flat area. Even according to our biggest design goal, it is more than enough to build a steel city with an annual output of millions of tons!" Li Shiqing looked at the green field all over the place, and his heart was indescribably comfortable.

"It's just a pity. The scenery here is really good. Once we build a steel base here, everything here will no longer exist!" Li Shiqing pouted and sighed.

"For us human beings, this problem is actually a question of whether to lay eggs or eggs. If you want to have both fish and bear paws at the same time, there is no such a good thing!"

Chen Jiaju said calmly: "Our Borneo has advantages that other developed countries do not have, that is, we are located in the tropics, with a lot of rain, and there is a relatively famous wind season in the Sabah region. Whether it is the sewage or the thick smoke discharged, it can be quickly removed, which is also a blessed condition given to us by God!"

Li Shiqing was excited: "I have seen your lecture to the students of the School of Administration. I really didn't expect that your concept of urban governance is quite advanced. Compared with some of my experiences abroad over the years, I feel that if we manage Kuching, including other places that we have gradually begun to control, our home will definitely become a paradise that the world yearns for!"

Chen Jiaju sighed, "If we just shout slogans, we will probably still walk in place in another 100 years. The key is that we must maintain the right direction in the specific implementation work, and the firm stride is the right solution!"

Li Shiqing's eyes moved slightly, and he seemed to hear other meanings: "What? Jiaju, do you have any other ideas to listen to your tone?

Chen Jiaju nodded slowly and said, "A series of administrative agencies in Kuching have been established in just a few years. It can be said that we have strict standards from the beginning, and everyone has worked hard. So far, I am satisfied with everyone's work."

"The problem is that most of the people's current work full of ** is because they have just been out of that kind of poverty, and they still have a deep understanding of the hardships of the past!"

"If we only rely on these people's ideals and ** to motivate and restrain everyone's work, it is far from enough. You know, as the development momentum of our Kuching is getting better and better, the children of these hard-working first generation of Kuching citizens may not be able to experience the hardships of the past. Will they keep longing for and yearning for all the things they have enjoyed since the day of birth?

Li Shiqing's eyelids rolled over. How could he have thought that this evil would think about such a long time!

"Ijiaju, don't be covered by clouds and fog! Just say your point!" Li Shiqing gave his brother-in-law a white eye and was impatient.

In other words, if we can't let the majority of Kuching citizens participate in the work of managing their homes, but just let us so-called pioneers manage it alone. Who can guarantee that while we have strong administrative resources, we will gradually separate from the masses through long-term development and form a self-contained bureaucratic group?

As soon as Chen Jiaju said this, Li Shiqing stopped and stared at Chen Jiaju with a calm face beside him with a shocked face.
