Chapter 3468 The rise and fall of the shipbuilding industry determines the strength of the navy

...As the person in charge of the shipyard, he not only has to consider the advancement of technology, but also the livelihood of the workers and the stability of the shipyard.

He took a deep breath and said slowly: "Mr. Wu is right, these problems are indeed what we must face.

Although intelligent and unmanned production is a general trend, we cannot ignore its social impact.

These workers are the precious wealth of our shipyard. Now we have to let civilization abandon so many outstanding workers for the sake of intelligent and unmanned production. This makes us unable to do anything whether rationally or emotionally, whether for public or private purposes.

Accepted.”

Chief Engineer Zhou Zeng sat quietly aside with deep eyes. He knew that his future might also be affected by this technology.

But as an engineer, he maintains awe and expectation for technological progress.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and prepared to speak, but found that his throat was dry and his voice became hoarse.

Luo Kai looked at the scene in front of him with mixed feelings in his heart.

He was moved by Wu Hao's frankness, but also worried about the coming changes. He knew that this change would have a profound impact on the entire shipbuilding industry, and even the entire society.

While everyone was deep in thought, Wu Hao continued: "We cannot deny that intelligent unmanned production will have some negative impacts, especially for those hard-working workers.

Wu Hao's words made everyone think deeply. We were all confused in our hearts and minds. There was no way to avoid the change. The only thing we could do was to actively respond and find the best solution.

As for the reason, it is very complicated. There are two main points. It is not a technological innovation driven by commercial profit-seeking, because intelligence and humanization cannot save labor costs, improve work efficiency, shorten construction time, and increase the added value of products.

For example, the Xiaoying Empire in the past, before the Mao Xiong, had a weak navy, but now, they all have small ships.

Others say that Nanya Baguo, which has been buying weapons and equipment from Mao Xiong, has a navy that is much weaker than Mao Xiong, including submarines.

But we should also see the huge potential and benefits brought by this technology.

It will slightly improve production efficiency, reduce costs, improve product quality, and make your shipbuilding industry more competitive."

As for Mao Xiong, it's even worse. Now we can only build ships of several thousand tons. In order to make up for the tonnage, we desperately cram weapons and equipment into the big ships, thus creating a strange scene of big ships equipped with small cannons.

Zhou Zeng also nodded, his hoarse voice revealing the engineer's special enthusiasm: "Yes, you need a transition plan.

As for Western developed countries, due to factors such as labor costs and labor shortages, they have gradually lost their shipbuilding industry.

After hearing the speeches of several people, Wu Hao smiled and nodded, then looked at everyone and said.

In fact, in many small shipyards, some jobs have not yet been handed over to robots. For example, specialized welding robots cannot replace the work of multiple workers.

Why do you say that? The main reason is that the world's shipbuilding industry is currently monopolized by several countries in East Asia, and you are not the leader among them, followed by the Japanese country.

It is said that it is going to be sold inside, but I haven't found the unlucky one yet. A certain Baguo in South Asia was a bad choice. It was just that I was trapped by a bear, and now it is a bad trap.

What you want to say is that in fact, the intelligentization and humanization of the shipbuilding industry have been regressing and are being pushed back. It’s just that the changes are too obvious and the regression is relatively fast. Have you noticed it yet?

.

It needs to be rolled back step by step, little by little. This will not only give workers an adaptation process, but also allow the shipyard to move forward steadily in the process of change."

"However," Wu Hao said with emphasis: "Sooner or later, we will have to face what we have to face. Whether to cut the flesh with a sharp knife, little by little, or to cut the mess slowly, in one step, will test the command of decision-makers and managers.

, of course, I don’t have the courage yet.

That situation will continue and the speed will get slower and slower.

Hearing Wu Hao's words, everyone sitting here laughed slightly, but there was a hint of sigh in their expressions. Yes, the once mighty Mao Xiong Navy has not become like that now.

Based on this, if there are not a small number of shipyards to support and push forward the application of intelligent manned technology in the shipbuilding industry.

I paused, looked around, and continued: "That is a profound change, and what you need is to face it head-on and find solutions to the problem.

Make sure that change rolls back smoothly so that everyone can benefit from it, rather than escape from it.”

As for my ten-thousand-year-old aircraft carrier, there is no thick smoke billowing out when it goes to sea. It is said that you can see the plumes of smoke rising into the sky from across the small western ocean.

If there are not a few submarines here to support the facade, I am afraid that with my few dilapidated boats, so-called nuclear-powered cruisers, the product of the hot war period, even the eighth-rate navy is like this.

He often lay down under the sea, and had to follow the tugboat at all times. You still remember the heroic scene of the aircraft carrier lying down in the small ocean, and the tugboat rushing to rescue it against the wind and waves."

Wen Changhong, who had not spoken for a long time, also expressed his opinion at that time: "You think you can't end the pilot project on some production lines first and gradually roll back the intelligentization and humanization.

"Mr. Wu," Mr. Zheng finally spoke, with a trace of helplessness and hesitation in my voice: "You are right, you can escape that change.

At the same time, we will strengthen training and job transfer plans for workers to ensure that we will fall behind in the change."

Mr. Zheng’s brows were furrowed, as if a fierce struggle was going on deep in his heart. I glanced at Zhou Zeng, who was sitting next to me. This silent chief engineer had confusion and expectation for the future in his eyes.

.

It is possible to push all workers into society at once, which will cause very small social problems."

The seventh point is that this may not have anything to do with national interests, geopolitics, national strategy, or even national danger.

That also led to the end of a slight decline in the naval strength of those countries, because the decline of the shipbuilding industry led to a slow increase in shipbuilding capabilities. There are even no countries that have not lost their independent shipbuilding capabilities. There are not some former naval overlords.

, now Wudao has been reduced to the point where it has no ability to build small ships.

However, you need to find a balance point that can push back technological innovation while ignoring the human factor."

Xiaoying actually built two aircraft carriers, but one of them leaked water during the trial voyage, and one lost its propeller during the trial voyage. Now both aircraft carriers are lying here.

"What Xiaojia said makes no sense. Indeed, you can slow down the matter and seek success.
