Chapter 534: Romanian New Deal (3)

Of course, the large-scale infrastructure construction has attracted more than just the carnival of local businessmen like Udinese.

To say where Lviv has the most industrial atmosphere, it is the steel plant. There are tens of thousands of workers in the steel plant covering an area of ​​several square kilometers, and its annual steel production reaches more than 70% of the national output.

And around the iron and steel plants, there are heavy machinery manufacturing plants that rank among the top in the country. In particular, the No. 1 heavy machinery manufacturing plant in Romania is the most outstanding. This plant is also the only company in Romania that can produce tens of thousands of tons of free forging hydraulic presses and die forging hydraulic presses. At the same time, it also produces hundreds of tons of large-scale technical equipment for metallurgy, mining, energy, transportation, automobiles, petrochemicals and so on.

It can be said that Eastern Galicia, where Lviv is located, has become an indispensable heavy industry base in Romania. The achievements of the previous development of this area are continuously being fed back to enterprises across the country to get rid of the situation of relying on imported equipment.

The country's large-scale infrastructure construction this time naturally also requires the involvement of two companies. Bridges and tunnels need to use a lot of steel, generator sets always need factories that can manufacture it, of course this is only a small part of it. But it does not mean that it is not important, so in order to ensure the construction of the country, the Minister of Industry Baldovin personally inspected Lviv, and these two factories are also one of the key points of the inspection.

Beside the blast furnace of the steel plant, Baldovin stood up to the hot temperature and watched with enthusiasm the workers working by the steelmaking furnace. At this time, it was just when it was out of the furnace. When the workers did some operation, the huge steelmaking furnace poured red molten steel. The scattered molten steel filled the stove with sparks under the already prepared mold specifications. And the conveyor belt carries these hot molten steel through the cold water, the scene of white smoke, but it is by no means a fairyland.

The orderly work scene of the workers watched Baldovin nodding secretly, which made him couldn't help but admire. "It deserves to be the most beautiful scene in the industry."

The steel industry can be said to be the foundation of the current industry. Without steel, there would be no industry. Whether it is light industry or heavy industry, steel is needed as a basic support. This is also one of the reasons why we need to talk about steel output every time when we talk about the national strength of countries in this era. Only when there is steel, there are other industries. If the blood of industry is oil, then the bone of industry is the steel industry.

Baldovin, who knows all this well, would give a compliment when he watched the release of steel.

"All this is the support of the state and the efforts of the workers."

Although Baldovin only praised the prosperity of steelmaking, Middles, as the head of the plant, also made a cautious sentence.

But he was not careful, not to mention Baldovin’s lack of publicity in the political arena, but the Ministry of Industry under his management is the immediate boss of these enterprises. Although the principals of key enterprises like Middles cannot be directly appointed and removed, they still have a huge home court advantage in the power of appointment and removal. At present, how many heads of state-owned enterprises in Romania that the Minister of Industry cannot directly appoint and dismiss can be counted with a single hand.

For Middles' caution, Baldovin shook his head and warned. "Don't be so humble, we can see what you pay in the steel plant. I remember that you overfulfilled the assigned tasks last year, and the production of 2.18 million tons shocked both me and the Prime Minister."

Baldovin’s words were simply praising his performance last year, and Middles, who was extremely proud of the matter, naturally answered very modestly. "This is the contribution of the steel mills, and the mines have also made great efforts for this. Otherwise, the steel mills will also achieve such a high output."

Middles has done everything and thanked not only the steel mills but also those responsible for mining raw materials.

Bardovin listened to him and asked with a smile. "How is the task accomplished this year."

"97% of the 2 million tons of steel tasks have been completed, and it is expected that the tasks assigned by the ministry will be completed within a few days. This year's steel output will not be higher than the end of last year."

Middles’ words made Baldovin very happy, "Very well, under your leadership, the steel plant will surely make a big breakthrough. However, the scale also needs to be improved in terms of quality. The current navy’s demand for armored steel Large, this requires you to increase your research efforts on steel. Strive to get rid of the situation of relying on German technology as soon as possible, so that Romanian steel technology can reach a new level."

Baldovin was silent in politics for many years, and his words of praise and encouragement opened his mouth. After speaking, he patted Middles on the shoulder, indicating that he was optimistic about him.

And Baldovin's praise also made others cast enviable eyes on him. If the eyes can kill, then Middles is already riddled with holes at the moment.

And Middles took the opportunity to continue talking. "Your Excellency, the investment in technology in our steel plant is not small at present. If you are interested, I can take you to the technical department to have a look, where new types of steel are being researched."

Middles' words surprised Baldovin, and then he replied with interest.

"Oh, is it? Then lead the way."

"this way please."

...

In the middle of the night, Baldovin, who had been inspecting for a day, was about to rest. Today’s market results made him very satisfied. He not only saw the scale effect of steelmaking in steel plants, but also saw the tireless research spirit of steel plants on new technologies~lightnovelpub.net~Although there are no results yet, In the explanation given by the factory director Middles, he also had a preliminary understanding of this. Moreover, the expenditure of the steel plant on the technical department is also visible and tangible, not only the latest equipment, but also the top-level staffing. There are R&D personnel from Germany and talents cultivated by Romania. Everything is the same. Well organized.

Of course, he not only visited the steel plant today, but also visited several heavy machinery manufacturing plants in the surrounding area. Especially in the No. 1 Machinery Manufacturing Plant, hundreds of tons of integral steel are artificially made into desired specifications like a dough under the action of a giant hydraulic press. All this made Bardovic feel that Romania is not what it used to be. Although there are small twists and turns, everything is developing and growing in an orderly manner.

One day, Romania's industrial strength will surprise the world.

Bardovic believes in this, because Romania's prosperity comes from everyone's efforts.

As for what he saw and heard today, Baldovin recorded it all. When he returns to Bucharest, he will be presented to the king and the prime minister.

Baldovin, who is satisfied with his heart, needs to rest early, and needs to inspect other companies tomorrow.
