In the early 1930s, in the process of socialist industrialization in the Soviet Union, Stalin put forward the slogan "Technology decides everything". When all sectors of the national economy are constantly equipped with new technologies, there are new situations in which professionals who are not skilled in using new technologies and managing modern enterprises are not skilled and some leaders despise talents. Stalin first put forward the slogan "cadres decide everything" in his speech at the graduation ceremony of students in the Red Army Academy on May 4, 1935. Stalin emphasized that talents and cadres are the most decisive capital among all precious capitals in the world, and summarized this idea as "the slogan that cadres decide everything" in 1935. This slogan has aroused the attention of leaders at all levels to the issue of cadres, thus speeding up the training of all kinds of cadres. 1928, there were only 90,000 highly educated experts in the Soviet Union. By 1937, there were 9.6 million intellectuals and cadres in China, including more than 4 million technical cadres, which laid a solid foundation for the development of the national economy and the victory of the Great Patriotic War. Through various channels, the Soviet Union vigorously trained and exercised economic cadres, gave full play to the role of existing technical forces, and improved the level of engineering and technical personnel. Boldly promote skilled workers with creativity and practical experience, expand the technical team, and generally improve the level of mass culture and education. In important industrial sectors, the relative number of experts exceeds that of Germany. There are 540,000 students in colleges and universities, which exceeds the total number of students in Britain, France, Germany, Japan and Italy. Driven by the slogans of "technology decides everything" and "cadres decide everything", the socialist construction in the Soviet Union is flourishing. It should be pointed out that the slogan "cadres decide everything" was put forward under the specific historical conditions that the Soviet Union was seriously short of technical cadres, which was related to the success or failure of socialist construction, and it was inappropriate at any time and under any circumstances.

1September, 935, a socialist competition movement named after Stalkhanov was launched in various provinces-Stalkhanov Movement. On August 30th, 1935, Staha Novo, a young coal miner in Donbass Coal Mine, improved the coal mining method. A three-person coal mining class mined 102 tons in six hours on a working day, which was 13 times higher than that in production quotas on an ordinary working day and spread all over the Soviet Union. On September 8th, Staha Novo set a new record and mined 175 tons of coal in one working day. The Supreme Soviet government seized this typical example, Staha's fame, made reports in various places, and the CPC Central Committee gave him quite generous material rewards and political treatment. Staha Novo became a household hero, and soon the production technology innovation movement named after Staha Novo was widely carried out in industries such as industrial transportation, with the goal of mastering new technologies, improving old technologies and improving labor productivity. Starr Hanov Movement is the embodiment of the selfless labor and initiative of the Soviet people to speed up the pace of socialist construction, which has effectively promoted the construction and development of socialism. Driven by this innovation movement, the industrial labor rate in the Soviet Union increased by 82% during the second five-year plan period, much higher than the original plan of 63%. Due to the Battle of Starr Hanov, the second five-year plan was completed in four years and three months. The second five-year plan for national economic development in the Soviet Union was completed nine months ahead of schedule in April 1937.

During the Second Five-Year Plan period, socialist industrialization and agricultural collectivization were rapidly completed, people's living standards were greatly improved, and various socialist undertakings flourished.

During the "Second Five-Year Plan" period, a total of 4,500 large enterprises in the Soviet Union were completed and put into operation; The total industrial output value increased by 65,438 0.20%, of which heavy industry increased by 65,438 0.39%, light industry increased by 65,438 0.000%, and the total agricultural output value increased by 54% from the negative growth during the First Five-Year Plan period. The national income increased by 109%, the people's wage fund increased by 1.5 times, and the income of farmers on collective farms more than tripled. By 1937, the ratio of total industrial output value has increased by 19 13. In the same period, compared with 19 13, the industrial output of the capitalist world only increased by 44.3%. By 1937, the Soviet Union's steel output reached17.7 million tons, steel13 million tons, pig iron14.5 million tons, coal12.8 million tons, and the power generation was 36.5 billion kWh. After two five-year plans, the Soviet Union has built more than 6,000 large enterprises and established departments such as steel, airplanes, automobiles, tractors, chemistry, heavy machinery and precision instruments. Great changes have taken place in the industrial layout. The industrial level of the Soviet Union has been greatly improved, the modernization and management level of industrial enterprises have been greatly improved, and the technical level of workers has been greatly improved compared with the first five-year plan period. Ural-Kuznetsk steel, heavy machinery and coal bases, Novo-Kuznetsk steel base and Volga-Ural oil base have been built in the eastern region. Tashkent food processing and animal products processing industrial base in Central Asia was built; Established a mechanized mining base in Kazakhstan; * * * Qingcheng Aircraft Factory has been built in amur river Valley in the Far East. 1937 the total industrial output value of the Soviet union accounts for 10.6% of the world, second only to the United States. It ranks first in Europe and second in the world, surpassing Germany, Britain and France. In the whole national economy, the socialist component has won a complete victory. Public ownership and collective ownership have become the economic basis of Soviet society, and the public ownership economy accounts for 99.8% of the national economy.

During the second five-year plan period, the collectivization of Soviet agriculture corrected some deviations, and collective farms developed in a stable direction, paying more attention to the quality of collective farms.

Industry has provided more tractors and combine harvesters for agriculture, and thousands of agricultural tractor stations have been established all over the country. The material guarantee of agricultural mechanization has been gradually strengthened. The rural power grid was gradually established, and the Soviet Union consolidated socialist collectivization during the second five-year plan period. The level of agricultural mechanization has been greatly improved, agricultural technology has been improved, the grain output of the Soviet Union has been greatly improved, and the articles of association of collective farms have been initially formulated, which has made collective farms embark on the road of standardized development. The level of agricultural mechanization in the Soviet Union increased from 2 1% in 1932 to 63% in 1937. Electricity consumption in rural areas has increased sevenfold. The average grain output in five years is close to the level of 19 13. 1937 The grain output of the Soviet Union reached 94 million tons (in converted figures), an increase of 19 14% over 2003. The number of large livestock has exceeded the level of 1928.

According to the calculation of the Institute of Economic History of the American Institute of World Economics, the gross national product of the Soviet Union in 1928 was about 40.9 billion US dollars, and the per capita income was 258 US dollars. 1937 increased to122.8 billion dollars, and the per capita income was 792 dollars. The average life expectancy in the Soviet Union is 6 1.8 years (European part). The Asian part is 55.4 years old. The illiteracy rate dropped below 6.4%. By 1935, the Soviet Union basically realized the purchase of daily necessities and food without relying on tickets. 1933, 1934, 1935, the Soviet union continuously adjusted workers' wages substantially. 1937, the average wage of workers in Moscow reached 90 rubles (about 140 dollars today), and the average monthly wage of workers in the Far East reached 65-70 rubles (about 95-650 rubles today). The average income of the working class actually increased by 45.5% compared with the first five-year plan period. Moscow city planning completed. Stalingrad, Qingcheng, Chelyabinsk, Novosibirsk and many other emerging industrial cities appeared in the Soviet Union. Cities such as Stalingrad have relatively complete supporting facilities and clean and beautiful city appearance. The Soviet Union built a large number of workers' dormitories in many emerging cities, and people's living conditions were improved. In the workers' area in the 1930s, there were many buildings with three to six floors, and heating, running water, electricity and drainage facilities were all available. At that time, most of the newly-built buildings were collective units with several public kitchens and bathrooms. The housing of the Soviet people is still relatively tight, and the per capita living area in big cities is about 7 square meters. During the second five-year plan period, the Soviet Union built 2,730 cinemas and workers' cultural palaces. Greatly enriched the cultural life of the people. Although the conditions can't be compared with today's, the Soviet working class is happier than the workers in capitalist countries during the Great Depression. In rural areas, the government has also begun to build a large number of houses, or to renovate and strengthen them. It is particularly worth mentioning that since 1929, the Soviet Union has built a large number of primary and secondary schools, especially in rural areas. Send a large number of teachers to support rural education. By 1939, the Soviet Union had established a large number of new residential areas, schools, health centers, libraries and film projection spots in rural areas.
