Chapter 2598

As long as Tao Hongfang and others can remember, their father has been a fixed member of the executive committee. As they grow older and gain knowledge, they gradually understand that every change in the lineup of the executive committee means a lot for the country.

The division of power has changed, and the insider information of these high-level officials is very sensitive and is not a topic that can be discussed in public. What's more, they are also stakeholders. Once the walls have ears and are heard by someone with a heart, it may cause unnecessary trouble.

Of course, Ha Jianyi is a special case among their group. His father Harugong is currently in a semi-retired state and is far away from the center of power. It is unlikely that he will come out again. The change in the lineup of the executive committee will have a big impact on him.

It has no special significance and will not have any impact on Ha Jianyi's future.

While the rapid foreign expansion of the Haihan Empire brought huge development dividends, it also covered up many problems that emerged in the process, especially the differences of opinion among senior officials on the national development route and strategy.

It never stops once it starts.

Should we rely on foreign wars to quickly plunder land and resources, or should we steadily develop farming routes? Should we give priority to conquering the East Asian continent, the traditional territory of the Han people, or should we start global competition with the contemporary maritime powers as soon as possible? Should we boldly appoint capable naturalized people?

Officials still continue to limit the inheritance of ruling power to the descendants of travelers; how to stabilize the rule of the increasingly powerful overseas colonial areas, how to handle the international relations between Haihan and the surrounding vassal states... and other issues,

There are often completely different opinions in discussions within the Executive Committee.

And these are only superficial differences. Of course, there are also conflicts of interest that go unnoticed in the audience. Although their parents rarely talk about these, when they enter the officialdom and have personal experience, they naturally

It is not difficult to notice the problems existing in Haihan's high-level power.

After the capital relocation plan proposed by the Donghai Region was approved by the Executive Committee, insiders actually understood that this had paved the way for Shi Diwen to enter the Executive Committee, and it also meant that the balance of power in the Executive Committee would undergo new changes.

From now on, not only will there be one more member of the military on the executive committee, but it will also put an end to the situation in which overseas regional chief officials have been unable to be promoted to the executive committee for many years.

It is now the implementation stage of the capital relocation plan. What changes Shi Diwen will bring to the executive committee and whether it will affect the country's development direction are of course not yet clear to Tao Hongfang and others.

answer, but maybe they won't have to wait too long before they can observe some clear signs.

After the groundbreaking ceremony, everyone returned to Hangzhou City. Tao Hongfang was very interested in the specific conditions of the Hangzhou-Ningbo Railway. He did not go back with everyone, but stayed at the construction site to discuss the design plan with the engineer in charge of the project.

detail.

The engineer in charge of the Hangzhou Railway Station project was named Dai Shao. He was from Guangdong and Guangxi and was in his late fifties. He was specially transferred from the south by the Ministry of Transport. After Tao Hongfang inquired, he learned that this man studied under Liu Shanxia, ​​the Minister of Construction.

, has been engaged in traffic engineering construction in Haihan for more than 20 years, and is a proven expert.

Although Dai Shao did not know Tao Hongfang before, he knew Tao Hongfang's identity. In addition, Shi Chengwu had also greeted him before and asked him to cooperate with Tao Hongfang. He did not dare to neglect now and introduced him in detail.

Some things I know.

The planning and design work of the Hangzhou-Ningbo Railway started much earlier than what is known to the outside world. As far as Dai Shao knows, it can even be traced back to before the establishment of the Donghai Region, that is, when Haihan only controlled the Zhoushan Islands in this area, Zhoushan

The Management Committee has already considered building a main railway line from Ningbo to Hangzhou in the future.

Of course, given the situation at that time, such an idea could only remain in the imagination stage and could not be implemented at all. It was not until Haihan gradually took control of Ningbo Mansion in the past few years that relevant plans were truly included in the agenda.

, only then did the senior management realize that this project was possible, so they handed it over to the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Construction and began to design the project plan.

Dai Shao has been involved in this project for five or six years, and has participated in the entire design of Hangzhou Railway Station. It is probably because of this that he was transferred from thousands of miles away and appointed.

as the person in charge of this project.

"Donghai Region has planned 3,000 acres of construction land for the Hangzhou Railway Station project. The construction period is expected to be two years. After completion, it will become the most important land transportation hub in Hangzhou. The current progress of the project is as you can see, it is just flat.

Excluding some areas, the construction content in the next few months will mainly focus on bringing in materials and leveling the foundation. The construction of the main station project will not officially start until next year." Dai Shao half-bowed and looked at Tao Hongfang carefully.

Explain the preparation status of the project.

Tao Hongfang asked: "Three thousand acres? Does the station in Hangzhou need to be so big?"

Tao Hongfang often took trains when he was in Sanya. According to his understanding, the area of ​​a train station generally ranges from dozens to hundreds of acres. The planned land area of ​​the Hangzhou train station actually covers 3,000 acres.

Mu, in his opinion, is really a bit big.

Dai Shao explained: "Planning such a large area of ​​land is mainly to consider the future development needs of the railway station. In addition to conventional facilities such as station platforms, ticket offices, and waiting halls, workshops needed to maintain locomotives must also be built.

There are warehouses for storing various bulk goods, a special passage connecting the Qiantang River pier, and a station square where cars and horses are parked. In addition, the Hangzhou-Nanjing Railway has planned a special freight train, so the station platform is also designed to separate passengers and freight.

It is a dedicated form and covers a much larger area than the old station.”

After listening to the explanation, Tao Hongfang nodded and said: "That makes sense, but it's a pity that the original planned areas for the stations in Sanya were too small, and now there is not enough space to build a station that separates passengers and freight."

In fact, the train station with separated passengers and freight was not the first of its kind on the Hangzhou-Ningbo Railway. The railway line between Changhua and Danzhou built by Haihan on the west coast of Hainan Island also adopted a platform design with separated passengers and freight when building the train station.

However, when it comes to the area of ​​the railway station, it is indeed larger than the Hangzhou Railway Station that just completed the groundbreaking ceremony.

But as Dai Shao said, if you consider the development prospects of Hangzhou as a capital city, you do need to leave some space, otherwise it will be like the train station in Sanya City, where the limited space affects the possibility of reconstruction and expansion.
