【Ningxia Memory • Achievements of "Three-Line Construction" That Should Not Be Forgotten】
The construction of the third line in Ningxia began in 1964 from the construction of Wuzhong Parts Factory, and on October 1, 1976, the last "third-line" factory relocated by the 524 Factory in Jilin Province - Hongwei Machinery Factory (code name 5233 Factory, later renamed Ningxia Qinghe Machinery Factory) was completed and put into operation in Guyuan County, which lasted 12 years, and can be said to be the largest industrial construction project in Ningxia so far.
The specific number of people relocated in the "third-line construction" is unknown, but the relocation of all factories includes the relocation of personnel, and the number is very large.
What has such a huge construction of the third line brought to Ningxia, and what does it mean?
In 1978, compared with 1964, the number of industrial enterprises increased by 1.4 times to 1072, of which 27 were large and medium-sized enterprises, which increased the number of industrial categories and expanded the scale of our region.
In 1978, compared with 1964, the total industrial output value increased by 9.5 times to 1.44 billion yuan, an average annual increase of 18.3%, and the fixed assets (original value) increased by 8.7 times to 2.02 billion yuan, making the industrial economy achieve rapid development.
The industrial workforce expanded rapidly, and in 1978 the number of employees owned by the whole population increased by 3.8 times to 143,000 compared with 1964.
In 1978, the proportion of industry in the total output value of industry and agriculture in our region has risen from 24.8% in 1964 to 68.9%, and industry has developed into a leading industry in Ningxia.
These changes laid a solid foundation for the later development of Ningxia's industrial economy.
