Harbin, Majiagou Airport.

A gray transport aircraft painted with the "Blue Sky and White Day" badge landed steadily on the concrete runway of the airport!

Shortly after the plane landed, a heavy snow unexpectedly encountered!

The transport plane and crew forced them to stay at the airport, waiting for the weather to improve before taking off and returning.

The reporters seem to have received news that Lu Shan returned to Harbin, and the siege and intercept were carried out at the airport.

However, the security department had already set up a cordon, and Lu Shan was able to calmly pass the safety passage and leave directly from the airport!

Lu Shan rarely accepts interviews, and the outside world's understanding of him is the tip of the iceberg, and he remains always low-key and mysterious.

This seems a bit unique in a high-profile and ostentatious era!

But this did not hinder the love of the people of North Manchuria for this young general. Although Dong Kang took over North Manchuria for less than half a year, many gratifying changes have taken place in the lives of the people.

Slow down prices, crack down on criminals, eliminate evil forces without any mercy, reduce taxes for industrial and commercial enterprises, rectify market order, establish shelters, etc.

Especially in terms of military discipline, it is so strict that it is picky!

If a soldier breaks the law, he will be punished with the first level!

Russians no longer dare to bully the Chinese, and Xiao Ri even acts as a human being with his tail between his legs, and other ethnic groups live in harmony. In this way, Harbin, a multi-ethnic and diverse city, suddenly rejuvenates!

Foreigners who have been to Harbin now have the most experience. Although they are the same city, their mental outlook and the face of the city have been completely renewed.

Harbin City has invested far more than before in many areas of people's livelihood, including infrastructure, public transportation, education and health.

The people felt the changes around them, and they also felt their own changes, and they increasingly supported the anti-Japanese democratic union.

"Today we are discussing the issue of integrating power generation companies in Harbin. There are five power plants in Harbin. They are..."

"Now there are more and more power companies, including institutions, schools, hospitals and individuals. According to our development goals, the installed capacity of the existing thermal power plants is far from enough, so it is necessary to add generator sets and establish a new thermal power plant!" Qin Shiyu presided over the new year of Harbin's planned economic development planning meeting.

He is a member of this Development Planning Committee, which he advocated and established himself, so he must participate.

Lu Shan was not worried about Harbin's economic development. It was not because he was fond of power, but because people in this era had no strong sense of forward consciousness, and he had to come and check it.

He wants to develop a limited planned economy in North Manchuria and improve the industrialization level of the North Manchuria region.

"It is expected that our electricity consumption will double next year. The end of the year may be three times or even four times that of now, so capacity expansion is necessary, but thermal power plants are a high-energy-consuming polluting enterprise. Our city must also develop and have enough open space, so we need to pay attention to the location selection!"

"According to the instructions of the Northeast Government Committee, we have prepared two sets of plans on how to integrate the power enterprises in Harbin. First, divide the areas, and each power company must complete the power grid transformation and upgrading and expansion within the specified time, pass the acceptance, and second, all power companies merge and liquidate their assets. After the equity allocation is approved, you will become shareholders of the new power company. You can serve as executives in the company or directly produce dividends from shareholders. In addition, we will set up an electricity price formulation committee to adopt a hearing method to unify the electricity price, and increase and reduce the electricity price according to the increase and decrease of production. However, each increase must not be capped by more than 10%, and only three changes are allowed within a year!" Executive Vice Mayor Zhang Tingge announced.

"Deputy Mayor Zhang, what if coal prices fluctuate greatly and we are bound by electricity prices at the beginning, and what should we do if we lose money?"

"We will implement a dual-track system for stepped electricity prices, residents' electricity prices and enterprises' electricity prices!" Qin Shiyu said, "Residents' electricity prices are strictly controlled and must not be increased or reduced without authorization, but enterprises' electricity usage will be more flexible."

“How to set electricity prices?”

"The electricity price setting will be formulated by the electricity price setting committee. This electricity price committee is composed of three parties, including the power company, ordinary residents, factory business owners, etc. The vote will be decided, and 95% of the vote will be passed before it can be implemented!"

"If we want to expand our production capacity, where does the raw materials come from, what is the price, and if we expand our capacity, where should we buy the generator set?"

"There is no big problem with coal. The existing coal mines we have in hand are not big problem with double the production capacity. It is enough to supply our capacity expansion. We will also have special institutions for coal pricing. As for generator sets, we plan to buy them from Germany. We will send a trading team to Germany for inspection and visit!" Qin Shiyu replied.

"We will establish Beiman Power Corporation with Harbin Power Supply Company. Next, we will send the initial integrated plan to you. Whether you choose the first or the second plan, we welcome it. This is also for the needs of Harbin's future development!" Qin Shiyu said.

"If we don't invest, will you suppress our small power companies?" asked a boss of a relatively small power company.

"No, but as the saying goes, how capable you are and how much rice you have, we will formulate a future phased development plan based on the capabilities of each company. For example, I require that you generate three million kWh a year, but you only complete two million in the end. Then your quota for the next year will increase by 30% from the end of the year, and the remaining quota will be transferred to others!"

"What if I generate more power?"

"The quota will naturally be increased in the next year, but we will increase the quota based on the electricity consumption calculation!"

"The more excess amount you complete, the more quota you will increase in the next year!" Qin Shiyu said, "This quota is not just a number, it is linked to the amount of coal!"

"It is linked to the amount of coal!" The bosses of all the power plant companies they are doing are shocked!

That's right, Lu Shan is engaged in a planned economy. Facts have proved that in an inefficient agricultural country, the planned economy is an effective means to rapidly improve the overall strength of the country and achieve industrialization.

Of course, when the total economic volume develops to a certain extent, the proportion of industry exceeds that of agriculture, the service industry rises, and the products are abundant, the planned economy loses its vitality to promote development.

The planned economy is not wrong, and the market economy is not a trick. It must match the economic situation of a country!

Concentrating efforts to accomplish major tasks, why is the Soviet Union able to complete industrialization in a short period of time? This is the advantage of the planned economy. Although there are many legacy problems, it is undeniable that the planned economy has made the Soviet Union become a superpower in just a few decades.

Especially in the war years, the planned economy was much more effective than the market economy. Lushan wanted to use the strong binding force of the planned economy to create a basic industrial Beiman Empire in a short period of time.

Only on this basis can a powerful army be forged.

If the Soviet Union had developed a market economy, it would probably be destroyed before the end of World War II. Didn’t Chiang like to engage in capitalism? What would he do if he took it?

In the end, it wasn’t lost to the mainland, but I had a life on that small island!

"Yes, as much electricity as you can generate, you can give as much coal as you want. This is one of our main purposes for the meeting!"

"How can this work? You can't do this..."

"That's right, how much coal we buy is our own business. You are a rough intervention..."

"First, we do this to stabilize coal prices, prevent people from hoarding coal, and manipulating coal prices. Second, according to the current situation, I am worried that you are not able to complete the set indicators. Even if you give coal, you cannot safely convert them into electricity. Third, power safety is related to the safety of our country. It is not about how you want it. Fourth, we will not let you operate at a loss, and will reserve a portion of profit space for you. And as your production capacity expands, the profit is quite considerable!" Qin Shiyu said sternly.

"If someone wants to exit, there is no problem, we will not force it, but some of our supporting facilities will not be shared!"

The bosses of many power companies were frightened by Qin Shiyu's words. If they really wanted to do this, they could only choose one of these two solutions. If they didn't choose the basics, there would be no way out!

These people are all human beings, how can you not understand? It has been said that electricity safety is related to national security. It is not easy to find an excuse to deal with disobedient people. How can you fight against powerful agencies?

"For the first plan, we will allocate coal purchases according to the quota, and there will be no restrictions on choosing the second one, but we will have internal allocations, not completely no restrictions!" Zhang Tingge said, "Now it is just a preliminary plan, and it will continue to be improved. Everyone will consider it more when they go back."

"Mr. Lu, what else do you have to say?" Qin Shiyu touched Lu Shan, who was sitting in the first place, and said.

"I, there is nothing to say. I know that everyone likes others to interfere in their own operations, but what I want to say is that electricity is not an ordinary commodity. It not only concerns the production of enterprises, but also the peace and stability of the people. Therefore, we must supervise and understand. At this stage, we can choose these two plans. In the future, we may find a more suitable plan to replace these two plans!" Lu Shan was distracted just now, thinking about Zhang Hanqing's "Tianjin" plan, but there has never been a good solution.

There is no alternative, but Lu Shan feels that the implementation is immature now, and what he wants now is control rather than relaxation.

In order to achieve the goal of rapid industrialization, this must be done. If market means are used, it will be difficult to achieve the desired effect!

This also involves power grid transformation and construction, which can be said to be a very complex basic project.
