Chapter 731: 735

Simon arrived in Washington at two o'clock in the afternoon. The White House had a grand reception. Clinton and his wife, Vice President Al Gore, new Senate majority leader Bob Dole and New House Speaker Newt Gingrich came forward together.

Referring to the identities of several people, Simon can roughly see the Republican Party's intention to woo him.

Otherwise, because of the position of Simon Democratic Party's important supporters, the Republican Party will definitely send representatives to participate in this meeting, but it is impossible for the two newly powerful congressional leaders to attend together.

The Clintons and Vice President Gore need not say much.

Bob Dole is Simon's competitor in the 1996 US presidential election.

This 71 year old veteran Republican politician began to pave the way for his presidential campaign after Clinton took office. Therefore, he did not hesitate to show Clinton that he could reach a compromise in advance. When he came to vote, he suddenly turned back and directly spoiled the health care reform bill pushed by the Clintons in every way.

The Democratic Party's disastrous defeat in the mid-term election and the failure of health care reform is a very critical factor.

The Clintons had been promoting the health care reform bill on a large scale as an important campaign promise to the voters, but it ended in failure, which inevitably produced a serious negative effect that the more they won, the more they fell.

Of course, the reason for the Democratic Party's disastrous defeat in the midterm election is far more than that. If you want to make it clear, you may need to write a large volume.

Bob Dole is Simon's favorite type of politician.

Standard Neo conservative politicians advocate tax cuts and deregulation of corporate giants, and they are tactful enough and selfish enough to be affected.

Another new speaker of the house of Representatives, Newt Gingrich, is aggressive.

This 51 year old Republican congressman, who is also a veteran politician in his prime of life, has frequently taken confrontational measures to stir up disputes between the two parties since he entered the Congress in the 1970s. In the past two years, he has also restricted Clinton from fulfilling the promises he made to the voters during the election campaign by almost non discriminatory means.

Instead of going to the famous Oval Office of the White House, they went to an ordinary reception room on the West Wing of the White House.

After the waiter delivered coffee and snacks, he quietly withdrew, leaving only six people in the reception room.

To Simon's surprise, it was Hillary who started the conversation first.

"Simon, before you came here, we were still discussing the outsourcing platform to be launched by igrit. In any case, Newt didn't believe that this platform could provide tens of millions of job opportunities every year. I read the information on the official website in advance, but I didn't quite understand it. Could you explain it to us?"

Simon casually held a cup of coffee, heard Hillary speak, and looked at the other four men without any trace.

Clinton's face was as usual, Gore was unheard of, Bob Dole was smiling, only Newt Gingrich, who was named by Clinton, frowned slightly.

Hillary is known for her strength.

Most of the contents of the failed health care reform bill were drafted by Hillary Clinton's team, so the media frequently accused his wife of interfering in politics. According to Simon's information, the failure of the health care reform bill also caused the rift between the couple to a large extent.

Now.

As you can imagine, the four Washington bigwigs certainly don't want Hillary to be involved in this kind of occasion.

The first lady not only ignored the pressure of the four bigwigs and insisted on staying, but also took the lead in stirring up the topic. By the way, he dug a hole for Newt Gingrich without any trace.

It's strong enough.

With this in mind, Simon sipped his coffee and said frankly with a smile: "in fact, this kind of description is a bit of a sneak concept. It is definitely impossible to create a 10 million level job. What outsourcing platforms can provide are relatively short-term part-time jobs, which may be completed in an hour or two. According to this calculation method, there will be more than ten million level job opportunities every year in the future. "

Clinton continued to ignore the men around her and asked, "can there be a million jobs converted by standard working hours?"

Simon shook his head directly: "no, Hillary. Igrit outsourcing platform is essentially a part-time platform, just to make up for the lack of human resources in Silicon Valley, and outsource relatively low-end jobs, so as to save costs. Therefore, this platform is more suitable for school students who need to earn living expenses and housewives who make money to subsidize their families in their spare time. If someone wants to live on this platform, it's OK, but it requires certain professional skills. "

Simon is not a big man in Washington. He doesn't need to pay attention to domestic employment all the time, and he will never be fat in front of these people, so he should be honest.

One million jobs, how can it be that easy?

In my memory, Wal Mart had only 2 million employees around the world at its peak.

However, although it can not provide 1 million jobs, it is not a big problem that the number of registered members of igrit outsourcing platform will exceed one million in the next few years. It's just, as Simon and Hillary said, it's just part-time after all. The number of registered members reaches one million, and it's good to have one tenth of the active users in daily life.This is almost equivalent to 100000 jobs.

Noticing Hillary's apparent disappointment, Newt Gingrich, who had just been named, suddenly uttered a sharp voice and said to Simon, "it seems that this is really just a gimmick."

Simon smiles and shrugs. "If you have to think that, Newt, it's true."

Bob Dole noticed some of Newt Gingrich's signs and said, "Simon, I still don't understand this Outsourcing platform. However, since anyone in the Federation can find a job on the platform, it must be a good thing. Can you tell me more about it? "

Simon thought for a moment and said, "Amazon, Bob, you should know?"

Bob Dole nodded.

Simon said: "Amazon is expanding its product range in the near future. In addition to books, videos and movies, it will also add clothing, cosmetics and other types. All of these products need a special introduction page. At present, the technology can not automatically generate millions of commodity catalog, so it needs to be filled manually. In addition, there are image classification, web page tagging, and other similar basic outsourcing tasks. Anyone who has an Internet connected computer and knows English can receive work orders. "

When Simon finished, Bob Dole said with a smile, "that sounds great. It really suits everyone."

Vice President Al Gore asked, "Simon, what's your hourly salary?"

Simon turned to gore and said, "it depends on the proficiency of the operator and the level of outsourcing tasks. The most basic filling, marking or classification I just mentioned is that the hourly salary will not be too high. If part-time workers are willing to take time to teach themselves some programming skills, their income will certainly be larger than that of being a waiter in a restaurant. "

Simon didn't give an accurate figure, and people can probably guess that the average hourly wage will certainly not meet the federal minimum wage standard.

Bill Clinton, who has just been silent, finally interjected: "Simon, many of these job opportunities of outsourcing platform should be taken away by overseas part-time workers, right?"

Simon didn't expect the president to hit the nail on the head.

According to the assessment made by igritte's team in advance, the hourly salary for the most basic outsourcing task is only about $1 to $3, which can be described as poor for local part-time workers in the United States. However, if they are overseas part-time workers in economically underdeveloped areas, their exchange rate may be higher than their regular income.

Take China for example.

If someone in China can connect to the Internet and sign up for igrit outsourcing platform members, even if they take the most basic tasks and work for 10 hours a day according to the minimum hourly salary of US $1, the exchange rate may be equivalent to the salary of many people in China for 10 days and a half months.

In fact, most of the tasks of igrit outsourcing platform are mainly part-time workers facing overseas underdeveloped areas.

But this point will certainly not appear in the official press release.

Simon is not as honest about this issue as he just said: "there will be some, because the Internet is global. However, limited to language barriers and salary settlement, the outsourcing platform is mainly aimed at local part-time workers in the Federation. "

The reception room is full of smart people.

Simon's answer is obviously not true, but several people did not investigate.

There was a slight pause in the topic. The other five people in the reception room were not eager to stir up a topic. It was not easy to see the young man who had created a series of business miracles. It was absolutely good to communicate with each other more.

Al Gore quickly continued: "Simon, many people think that investment in new technology has overheated. What do you think of that?"

Simon said: "overheating is inevitable, just like when the federal government built the national highway network, there must have been criticism that it was over investment. In the end, it turns out that it was the expensive federal highway network that contributed to the rapid economic development of the United States after the war

It was Al Gore's father, the elder Gore, who proposed the national interstate highway project launched in the 1950s. Because of this plan, the gore family has accumulated abundant political capital.

Hearing Simon's flattering mention of his father's achievements in those years, Al Gore couldn't help smiling, and his favor for the young man suddenly increased.

Hilary did not give Simon the opportunity to easily bypass the topic: "Simon, do you think there is a serious bubble in the new technology market?"

The information superhighway project is also an important achievement promoted by the White House team after they took office.

Since Franklin Roosevelt in the 1940s, no Democratic president has been re elected in half a century. This matter has been clouded over the White House since Clinton took office.

Losing the mid-term election, Clinton's chances of re-election fell sharply again.

if the new technology industry bubble does not last two years, it will be a fatal blow for Clinton and his wife.

Simon doesn't really want to talk about it.

Facing a group of old foxes, he didn't want to be too forward-looking at all.What's more, Simon can no longer see the future of the new technology industry which is now affected by his big butterfly.

It's a completely new era.

Considering various factors, the development of new technology industry in the United States at the present stage is roughly equivalent to that of 1997. That is to say, three years ahead of schedule.

However, under the large-scale propaganda and encouragement of the westero system for several years, the number of personal computers and Internet access users in the federal territory is significantly higher than the level in memory of 1997. The development of software and hardware technology, limited by time, is not as flourishing as in memory of 1997, which is a little backward.

The most important NASDAQ index has soared from about 300 points in 1990 to more than 1700 points recently, which is also the level of 1997 in memory.

According to these factors, the wave of new science and technology can last for another three years.

not surprisingly, the 1996 election is at the peak of the Internet bubble. It will be very easy for Clinton to renew his term when the east wind is blowing.

Of course, things are not absolute.

Because there are too many factors that can affect the development of an industry.

Simon looked at the two Dole who also had a mental concern about this issue. They certainly hoped that the new technology bubble would burst as soon as possible, which would be of great advantage to Dole's capture of the presidency. As for the US economy, which was badly hit by this process, a qualified politician would probably not be able to care much about that.

place obstacles in the way of thinking, and it is hard to say whether the Republican Party will take the lead and break the bubble ahead of time by some policy measures.

thought about it for a moment. Simon said to some people around him or in the dark or dark expectations: "bubbles are definitely there. New industries can not avoid this, and they will inevitably break down in the future. However, compared with the past cyclical recession of the federal economy, the breakdown of the new technology bubble will only lead to a brief callback. After squeezing water, the industry will continue to develop at a high speed, because the transformation of the electrical age to the information age is an inevitable trend.

In fact, a lot of things, there is no lack of experience, a few people all know.

But no one will despise the judgment of the young people in front of them.

Simon didn't give an accurate time limit, which was also expected by Clinton. No one can accurately predict the business cycle, otherwise there would be many speculators who lost their property because they bet in the wrong direction at every economic turning point.

When Simon finished, the Clintons looked at each other.

There are mixed feelings.

the couple realised one thing. When the new technology bubble burst, it is definitely not just the industry itself. It is bound to be closely related to the White House's ruling initiatives in the next two years, and even closely related to the political game at the top of Washington.

Newt Gingrich then asked another question: "Simon, how can you be sure that the transition from the electrical age to the information age is an inevitable trend?"

Simon looked at the Republican tycoon with a young smile: "because many of the core industries in the information age have taken shape, such as personal computers, broadband networks, online websites, mobile communications, etc., these industries have reached the scale of 100 billion at present, and will further reach the trillion dollar level in the future. It can be said that this is a new era The economic foundation of the times. When all these developments spread and change people's lives in all aspects, human beings will enter a new era, won't they? "

Newt Gingrich was questioning the extent of the bubble of the new technology industry. What if

is all a pile of bubbles, there is no future. Bill Clinton's information superhighway project since he took office has become a joke.

Now, with a little thought, Gingrich realized that westero was not bluffing at all.

The foundation of a new era must be a series of large enough emerging industries, such as the electric power and oil industry since the electric age began in the late 19th century, and the derivative fields of automobile, steel and chemical industry. At present, not to mention anything else, it's just Cisco AOL igritte, which is controlled by westero system, that has formed a huge emerging industry with hundreds of billions of dollars.

From these aspects, there is no doubt that the information age is coming.

Al Gore, sitting on the other side, obviously thought of the same place with Newt Gingrich, and timely put forward a slightly sensitive question: "Simon, don't you think westero system has grasped a large number of core industries in the information age, which has hindered the development of the federal new technology industry? We should know that only when there is competition can we make progress and further stimulate the rapid development of the industry. "

Al Gore obviously refers to the antitrust investigation being conducted by the Federal Department of justice against the "Cisco AOL igrit" three giants.

This is a hint that Simon can take the initiative to make concessions.

Before coming to Washington, hearing that the white house used the topic of new technology industry as a cover, Simon realized that this meeting could not avoid the anti-monopoly investigation of the Department of justice.

Simon did not hesitate this time. He shook his head decisively. He looked at the other people in the reception room and said, "with the establishment of WTO, EU, NAFTA and other international organizations, globalization has become an inevitable trend. I don't think you have any objection to this, right?"The five people around don't know why Simon suddenly mentioned globalization. They all nodded slightly and waited for the following.

Simon continued: "unlike the physical industry which is easily separated by regions, the Internet will be a global integrated network. Therefore, any new technology enterprise has the opportunity to rely on this global network for global expansion. Take igritte as an example, we have launched portal websites and other businesses in Canada, Australia, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Japan and many other overseas countries outside the United States. However, because the layout of these overseas countries in the field of new science and technology is relatively backward, our overseas business is also limited and has not yet formed a decisive advantage. Next, we need to continue to cultivate these overseas markets to get a firm foothold. To achieve this, our new technology enterprises must be as strong as our country itself. "

At this point, all five people in the reception room have understood.

Simon didn't stop: "all of you are the key to the future of the Federation, and I don't need to avoid it. In fact, the federal government has lagged behind Japan, Germany and many other countries in the core industry of the electrical era, and we do not have the rich oil reserves of the Middle East. These patterns can not be reversed. Now, we are about to enter a new era. If the federal government wants to remain strong in this new era, it must give up the previous strict anti-monopoly strategy of restricting the development of large enterprises, because we need super large new technology enterprises to capture the world. Only when its strength is strong enough to make our overseas rivals unable to catch up with us, can the Federation completely seize the global hegemony of new technology industry and continue to lead a new era. On the contrary, if you continue to break up and dismember the new technology industry giants that have formed huge advantages according to the traditional thinking, the result is likely to be the same as the failure of the Federation in the fields of automobile, semiconductor, etc., which will be overtaken by overseas countries again.
