The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

Now, it can be said that there is a shortage of foreign exchange everywhere in the country.

There is a shortage of foreign exchange at the top and at the bottom.

And foreign exchange is needed everywhere!

For enterprises that can earn foreign exchange, there are substantial preferential policies and support.

And Panshan Group is the largest foreign exchange earner in the whole of China. Even oil, which was once a major export, cannot compare with Panshan Group.

The foreign exchange settlement of Panshan Group will be higher, but it does not have preferential policies such as tax rebates like other companies.

But there is no doubt that taking back the foreign exchange settlement rights for military trade is a good thing for Panshan Group. This means that Panshan Group can increase its income by billions every year without having to give the middleman, the China Ordnance Industry Corporation, to make a profit.

In the past, Panshan Machinery Factory had a low administrative level, no influence, and no military trade rights. It had to cooperate with the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building for a win-win situation, and everyone could make money.

On April 20, 1982, Persia concentrated nearly three divisions of troops and a large number of Revolutionary Guards of about 100,000 people to launch the "Jerusalem Holy City Operation" offensive with the goal of retaking the city of Khorramshahr. After 25 days of fierce fighting, it finally conquered the important southern port city of Khorramshahr.

The China National Ordnance Industry Corporation sent people to both Iran and Iraq, and the troops also sent military observers to both Iran and Iraq, taking turns to discuss the war on the battlefield and collect the latest situation of the war.

This knife cut into my body, it was really heartbreaking.

"At least we can fight for another four or five years." Liu Tao smiled.

After suffering heavy losses in succession, Iraq proposed a ceasefire across the board, unilaterally implemented a ceasefire, and withdrew all troops from Persia.

"Leader, you also know the current situation of our Panshan Group. The stall is too big and needs money everywhere. The leaders above also understand our difficulties and are helping our Panshan Group to overcome the difficulties." Liu Tao said with a smile.

There are also canned foods, canned fruits, canned meat and the like, so there will be more exports.

Now both sides are deadlocked on the battlefield, and no one can push the front line. The cruel war of attrition consumes a lot.

He is not afraid of the pressure of supercharging. As long as he can promote the development of China and realize the rejuvenation of China, he will not live in vain.

On the surface, China's GDP in 1983 was 602.09 billion yuan, and the economic growth rate was 12.05%, which is already very fast.

Taking back the right to settle military foreign trade made Liu Tao feel very good.

Since the reform and opening up, the economic growth rate in 1979 was 11.47%, in 1980 it was 11.88%, in 1981 it was 7.59%, in 1982 it was 8.87%, and in 1983 it was 12.05%.

The Iran-Iraq War is now the most important export market for China Ordnance Industry Corporation. China Ordnance Industry Corporation attaches great importance to the Iran-Iraq War.

It can even be said that the whole of China attaches great importance to it.

Iraq's oil revenue in recent years has been more than enough for war expenses. Now it is even using money to hire mercenaries to perform some military tasks to solve the problem of loss of manpower. In addition, some young people in the Arab world have taken the initiative to join the Iraqi army.

Liu Tao knows that for several consecutive years after 1979, China's economic growth rate has not been lower than 10% in any year!

Zou Jiahua asked: "How long do you think the Iran-Iraq War can last?"

But now there is no sign of peace talks between the two sides.

Many are small gadgets, but they cannot withstand large quantities, such as military kettles, which have been exported at least three or four million in recent years.

Billions of net profits a year just flew away.

It's thankless!

Liu Tao smiled. Some things must be done to realize his ideals.

It hurts on the body, and it hurts more in the heart.

Liu Tao did this, even in the eyes of many people, it was something that only a fool would do.

The annual income brought by the Iran-Iraq War is almost as much as 10 to 20 billion US dollars.

The real data is higher!

Keeping a low profile, playing the pig and eating the tiger, this is what China is good at.

There are also military shoes, at least five or six million pairs have been exported.

Saddam is now a hero in the Arab world. Unless the war can be ended in a favorable form, Saddam will not accept a direct return to the pre-war border.

The price difference alone is enough to support the installment payment of naval frigates and destroyers.

Weapons and ammunition, clothes and shoes, canned food, food, etc.

They don’t want to be too high-profile and attract the attention of the United States and the Soviet Union, so as not to cause external troubles.

You must know that before, among all the major ministries, the Ministry of Machine Building had the most foreign exchange, and others who wanted foreign exchange often had to go to the Ministry of Machine Building.

As the largest arms dealer in the entire China, it no longer needs the China Ordnance Industry Corporation to make a profit from the price difference. In the foreign exchange settlement negotiations with banks, Panshan Group’s gains are not less than those of the China Ordnance Industry Corporation.

Now, the settlement rights of Panshan Group's military foreign trade have returned to Panshan Group. Although China North Industries Group Corporation has other military foreign trade, it can't be compared with Panshan Group.

To be honest, they don't want the Iran-Iraq War to end, and they are worried that after the Iran-Iraq War, everyone's comfortable days will be gone and they will have to live a hard life.

"The leaders are making our weapons industry system more difficult." Zou Jiahua said with a frown.

And he also has more confidence to promote the new century project.

Persia was extremely tough, demanding that if both sides wanted to cease fire, Iraq must return to the pre-war border and demand Iraq to compensate for the losses caused by the war.

Otherwise, China would still be China, and wouldn't he be useless?

Now his efforts are driving the development of China, and every one of them is proving that he is realizing his own value and that what he does is valuable.

According to the original history, the early stage was the first stage, that is, Iraq's full-scale offensive, and Persia organized border defense and counterattack. Then in 1981, the second year after the outbreak of the war, Persia began a large-scale counterattack. At the end of September, Persia concentrated more than 100,000 troops and launched a large-scale Abadan counterattack, lifting Iraq's siege of Abadan. In late March 1982, Persia launched the "Victory Operation" offensive, annihilating two Iraqi brigades, severely damaging two divisions, killing and wounding 25,000 Iraqi soldiers, capturing 15,000 people, destroying 360 tanks, shooting down more than 20 aircraft, and seizing hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles.

But now it is different. Panshan Group has grown into a giant and has obtained the right to export military products.

The conditions of both sides are very different, and there is no way to talk about it.

"Now Persia is in contact with the United States, and the assets frozen by the United States may be released. Persia has a lot of frozen assets in Europe and the United States. Even if the Iran-Iraq War continues for another five or six years, it may not end." Liu Tao said confidently.

"You, don't do it for no reason, but participate in the "Shenhai Expressway" project and the "Beijing-Kowloon Railway" project, adding pressure to yourself for nothing." Zou Jiahua shook his head helplessly.

But these are just the data released to the public.

For example, in GDP statistics, it is very obvious.

The current situation of both sides is very different from the original history.

At this time, the war has spread to Iraq. The Iran-Iraq War entered the second stage in July 1982, which was carried out in Iraq.

But because of Liu Tao's influence, the Iran-Iraq War was still carried out on the original battlefield. The two sides were still in a stalemate and engaged in a cruel war of attrition.
