Now, there is no doubt that Sir Gao, who put forward the concept of Xiangjiang International Digital Center, has played an authoritative role in the re planning and development of Xiangjiang telecom industry, the infrastructure necessary to realize the status of Xiangjiang International Digital Center.
In short, Gao Xian promotes this huge project through two "hands".
The "left hand" is the Xiangjiang exchange fund authority - Sir Gao, who is the president of the Xiangjiang exchange fund authority with his huge surplus of the Xiangjiang exchange fund, is really grandpa CAI.
When the ghost guy of the Hong Kong government wants to spend money, Gao Xian reluctantly agrees, but Sir Gao should listen to the general direction of spending money, supervision and audit, etc.
In fact, Gao Xian originally wanted to spend money. The reason is not difficult to understand. The role of "lender of last resort" of Xiangjiang banking has been dumped by Huifeng bank to Xiangjiang foreign exchange fund for several years. To put it bluntly, within the scope of Xiangjiang, Xiangjiang foreign exchange fund belongs to a "big banker". Its asset appreciation can not really rely on saving the considerable foreign exchange fund balance that has attracted people's eyes and hearts to the bank for interest.
When Xiangjiang foreign exchange fund has a large balance and must be spent, the safest way is to engage in infrastructure construction to drive the development of Xiangjiang. When this big cake becomes bigger, the asset scale of Xiangjiang exchange fund naturally continues to rise.
And the ghost guy who asked the Xiangjiang exchange fund to help alleviate the pressure on the budget deficit of the Hong Kong government, sir Gao carried out transactions based on this principle.
In the remaining ten years or so, the ghost senior officials of the Hong Kong government want to work easier. The ghost civil servants want to be satisfied with the salary level. No problem. Sir Gao's requirements are certainly not "excessive", as long as you follow the baton.
The "right hand" is Gao's consortium, which plays a leading role in the specific implementation of the plan, leads the development direction of Xiangjiang International Digital Center and avoids spending money.
After all, there are many branches of the Internet implementation route. You choose the wrong direction at the intersection. Although you can turn around and get to the next correct intersection, the waste of resources can not be avoided. Although Xiangjiang's economy is developed, it's true, but the volume is there. Your small arms and legs can't stand the twists and turns, and Sir Gao has worked hard to accumulate the surplus of the exchange fund, It is not allowed to be wasted unnecessarily.
In the process of building Xiangjiang International Digital Center, if anyone makes small moves and acts as a stumbling block, the "left hand" and "right hand" should smoke their mouths. First there is Dadong telegraph group, then Hutchison Telecom, that's all.
In fact, this situation just reflects that the process from using the surplus of Xiangjiang exchange fund to building Xiangjiang International Digital Center is a cake sharing process. Sir Gao, who has "exquisite knife skills", has calculated an account for each force in his heart. Who is dissatisfied, the responsibility is not Gao Xian.
Take the construction of Xiangjiang International Digital Center as an example. Dadong telegraph group's asking price is too high and it's still dawdling. Naturally, it was simply won; Hutchison Telecom, with the full support of Huifeng bank, has an impure motive, which threatens the leadership authority of Gao's consortium in the process of building Xiangjiang International Digital Center. It's nothing to be polite and be excluded.
Although the various forces behind Hutchison Telecom knew that they were also hidden rules, they could only admit it in the end. They could only blame themselves for not understanding the concept of Xiangjiang International Digital Center. They thought that it was all about building more public telephone booths, fighting price wars, and competing for customers with Xiangjiang Telecom's local telephone business.
Gao Xian is well aware of a social phenomenon, that is, it is difficult for people to imagine that things they have not touched are easy to feel ethereal when they are placed on Xiangjiang International Digital Center.
However, this problem is not difficult to solve. As an advocate, Gao Xian directly takes Minitel, a French online service network that has been widely used, to establish an easy to understand image.
Just like in the Internet era, many people think that the WYSIWYG web pages of graphic operation are all the Internet, but there are more "dark matter" that ordinary people can't access on the Internet. In the "prehistoric era" before the advent of the conventional cognitive Internet wave, Internet applications already exist.
The reason why France's Minitel takes the lead is mainly due to the characteristic environment of France - the strong promotion of the government. Like Concorde and high-speed railway trains, it has become a proud achievement of France during the period when western developed capitalist countries are deeply trapped in the quagmire of economic stagflation.
Obviously, the popularization of a new technology, which is vigorously promoted by the government alone, is often reduced to a passing political achievement process without being driven by dynamic application scenarios, and Minitel's success is that there are real application scenarios.
Of course, the first popular application scenario is the online phonebook service, which can not only access the phonebook and address information on the whole public telephone network, but also significantly reduce the cost of printing the phonebook and the manpower to query the telephone directory.
The number of fixed telephone network lines in Xiangjiang exceeded one million in the 1970s; Now it has exceeded 2 million; According to this development trend, by the early 1990s, it will exceed 3 million.
The number of fixed telephone network lines in France reached 23 million as early as 1978, when Minitel was launched.
The consumption of paper printing of telephone yellow pages on this scale and the difficulty of query are quite amazing. I'm used to the convenient thinking of the Internet. I might as well learn from the lens of the protagonist checking the phone in classic old Hong Kong films such as ghost horse double stars. I won't repeat it here.
In addition to the telephone directory service, Minitel in France also has application scenarios such as mail order retail, purchase of air tickets or train tickets, information services, database, message board and so on.
Still use numbers to best illustrate how France's Minitel succeeded. Last year, in 1985, France Telecom made 620 million francs from Minitel; By the beginning of this year, the number of terminals connected to Minitel had reached 1.4 million.
The future in the "old script", Minitel's success, even to some extent, hinders the popularity of the Internet with the world wide web as the mainstream in France.
The most dynamic application scenarios and the most dynamic demand pull of Xiangjiang International Digital Center promoted in the image of Minitel in France are still derived from the status of an international financial center, such as the easiest to think of stock price query, the exchange rate query of the global foreign exchange speculation boom after the Plaza Agreement, and so on.
In order to make the concept of Xiangjiang International Digital Center more vivid and understandable, sir Gao even used his Jianghu identity - three committee members, public office - the president of the Hong Kong Exchange Fund authority, the world's tenth largest foreign exchange reserve, and a member of the Executive Bureau of the Hong Kong government. His wife, a member of the Canadian House of Lords, invited French Prime Minister Chirac, Give a speech on the successful application of Minitel in France.
Later, at the meeting to listen to the progress of the reform of the monopoly system of Xiangjiang international telecommunications, sir Gao asked Li Bancheng, who recently complained, "I heard that after Hutchison Telecom missed the second local telephone business license of Xiangjiang, Li Sheng was very upset?"
Li Bancheng quickly denied and clarified that he had begun to doubt that even with Huifeng's full support behind his back, bidding for the second Xiangjiang international telecom business license would be suspended again! Even from this extension, similar situations are encountered in other fields.
After all, though Li Bancheng is trying to manage his relationship with pweicer, he is not sure that he can match the old fellow of Shen Bi. And Li Bancheng has a faint feeling that this guy is a bit out of place.
Without Huifeng's full support, Li Bancheng is nothing. In this case, in the face of Sir Gao, he almost asked "you don't accept it". He really dared not take the chance and said with a smile: "Hutchison Telecom is really not prepared enough to understand the connotation of Xiangjiang International Digital Center. I hope it can not make the same mistake in bidding for the new international telecom license."
In fact, if Li Bancheng can take out more funds from Huifeng and invest in the construction of Xiangjiang International Digital Center, which will hinder some of Huifeng's financial resources in the next few years, it's better to stimulate Huifeng to expand like Jardine's in previous years. Gao Xian is still willing to "let bygones be bygones", so he laughs: "The investment in the operation of international telecommunications licenses is much higher than that of local telephone licenses. Hutchison Telecom should make more adequate preparations for bidding."
After listening to Sir Gao's "advice", Li Bancheng was thoughtful. This is to fight for financial resources. It's just time to test whether Pu Weishi is kind to himself!
