Chapter 2489

Of course, the executive committee cannot blindly exert pressure on these former Ming officials who have not joined Haihan for a long time. In addition to assigning tasks, they must also provide some appropriate benefits to make them realize that being an official in Haihan is also a good idea.

Be able to have goals to strive for.

"I believe that everyone here should know the situation of Zhaoqing Prefecture better than I do. This is also the main reason for you to stay in office. Therefore, the country also needs your efforts in the future governance of Zhaoqing. As far as I know, Zhaoqing is currently temporarily governed by

The Guangdong and Guangxi Regional Administrative Committees have not yet established local administrators, but candidates should be selected from local grassroots officials. I hope everyone here can work hard to strive for such an opportunity!"

As Ning Qi spoke, he looked around at everyone and saw that the faces of these officials were more or less excited. They must have become interested in the benefits he was offering.

After Haihan annexed the Guangdong and Guangxi regions, in order to facilitate the implementation of control, the original state-level yamen were eliminated, and only grassroots county yamen were retained. Therefore, there were a large number of high-level official vacancies in the local area. Regarding this situation, these county magistrates were also concerned about this situation.

They knew it, but they didn't know what arrangements Haihan would make. Now that Ning Qi had spoken out and let them know that he still had room for improvement, he would naturally not be willing to continue to be a small county magistrate.

Simply relying on a sense of responsibility to the country and the people may not be enough to give these officials enough motivation to move forward. After all, they have only changed their allegiance not long ago, and their sense of identity and belonging to Haihan Kingdom may not be enough.

But if their work performance is linked to their personal future, perhaps they will be more motivated to strive.

Briefing meetings like this were also held in several other conference rooms of the Grand Council Hall at the same time. The Ming territory that Haihan had annexed in recent years was so fast that there was no time to train qualified local officials in advance, so he could only

Most areas continue to use the personnel left over from the Ming Dynasty. However, regardless of their loyalty or work ability, these personnel are far from reaching a level that reassures the Executive Committee, so they are organized to go to Sanya in batches to report on their work, and pass

Face-to-face contact, senior officials from the executive committee will personally give them guidance.

Of course, the Executive Committee has also learned about the situation of these officials in advance through the reports they submitted and other information channels. Officials with outstanding personal abilities and certain achievements in local governance have been secretly included in the investigation targets.

, this work report can also be regarded as a face-to-face assessment session.

Officials who can perform well during this period will be given the opportunity to stay in Sanya for a short period of further study. Moreover, the promotion method of local officials mentioned by Ning Qi is not false. If there are outstanding people among them, they may indeed be further promoted.

.After all, at least one-third of the civil and military officials currently appointed by Haihan are from surrendered ministers and generals. Their special status and background will not affect Haihan's evaluation standards for officials.

Ning Qi spent half a day discussing local governance measures with these officials. At noon, he wanted to have lunch with the county officials, but at this time someone came to inform him that Tao Dong came to summon the executive committee members currently in Sanya.

We immediately met at Fort Victory.

The Grand Council Hall was not far from Fort Victory, so Ning Qi left the job of greeting Zhaoqing officials to his secretary, and then returned to Fort Victory in a car that is extremely rare on the market. This new type of transportation has been used in the past two years.

It was only officially used as a passenger car for high-ranking officials of Haihan in 2008. It is only provided to officials who hold public offices. For the public, it is still a marketable and priceless rarity for the time being.

"What's so urgent?" When Ning Qi walked into the conference room, he saw that Tao Donglai, Bai Kesi, Yan Chujie and Wang Tom were all present, so he asked quickly.

"I'm notifying everyone to come back and see something good." Tao Donglai deliberately let it slip and changed the subject: "You haven't had lunch yet, right? Let's eat together first, and then go somewhere else."

Not long after, several other members of the executive committee in Sanya also arrived one after another. Everyone had a simple meal in the canteen in Victory Fort, and then took a bus to the place Tao Donglai mentioned.

The place Tao Donglai mentioned is actually not mysterious. It is a shooting range located deep in Tiandu Industrial Zone. Usually new weapons developed by the ordnance industry department will be tested here, and there are many senior officials like the Executive Committee.

I have been here for the first time to observe the achievements of the ordnance industry department.

However, in the past, such activities were usually notified in advance, and such impromptu gatherings rarely occurred. After Ning Qi got out of the car, he asked Bai Kesi: "Old Bai, what treasures are you so anxious to show everyone today?"

?”

Bai Kesi smiled and said: "What we have been waiting for ten years has finally been developed."

With a rumbling sound, a strange-looking machine drove up from the slope next to the shooting range. This machine had no wheels and actually moved by the rotation of its left and right crawler tracks. On the crawler platform, there was

A rotating turret like a turtle shell. The senior officials present could recognize it at a glance. This should be the prototype of a tank.

"Good guy... Good guy! You really made it!" After Ning Qi saw this steel monster, it was difficult to find the right words to describe his mood, and he could only sigh repeatedly.

Everyone present who saw this thing for the first time felt the same way as Ning Qi, and some even couldn't restrain themselves from swearing.

The Army Department has applied for manufacturing tanks many years ago, but due to various reasons, it has only stayed in the development stage for many years and failed to achieve real results. The design principles of tanks are naturally important to the Haihan Ordnance Industry Department.

We have known about it for a long time, but there are still many technical difficulties that need to be overcome in order to manufacture such a large-scale weapon that is ahead of its time, and the first one to bear the brunt is the engine.

Although the industrial sector began to trial-produce internal combustion engines ten years ago, due to limitations in the manufacturing process, the engine power that can be manufactured is often only a few dozen horsepower at most. This kind of power is not a big problem when used to manufacture cars, but it requires

It is far from enough to drive a tank.

According to data from the ordnance industry department, a light tank with a design weight of only about 12 tons requires an engine with at least more than 200 horsepower. A few years ago, there was finally a breakthrough in engine manufacturing technology, but the engine built

The first batch of high-power engines were all allocated to the navy, which had more urgent needs, to build a new generation of warships.

Although the Army is dissatisfied, it can only swallow its anger. After all, Haihan has always given priority to sea power, and the needs of the Navy have a dominant position in the army. Moreover, based on the current combat needs of the Army, it is actually difficult to use tanks.

Heavy weapons, the symbolic significance of manufacturing tanks far outweighs the practical effects, so related plans have been postponed indefinitely.
