Eating hot pot on Mayday is actually not a wise choice. The three of them soon www.biquge.info sweating profusely.

However, for those who are tired from the day, it may indeed be necessary to vent the fatigue in their hearts.

Quan Shunyu took a sip of cold beer, straightened out his thoughts, and then said to Gu Chenghe: "Is the second thing...... I'll just ask casually. You are now the leader of the Chinese Internet circle, I don't know what your relationship with those network operators is? ”

Gu Cheng said frankly: "It's not good, I don't follow the path of officials and businessmen." How can a large enterprise with hundreds of billions of dollars look down on a small company like ours with hundreds of millions of dollars? ”

Quan Shunyu was slightly surprised, this answer was something he didn't expect. He has always treated others with himself, and he feels that Gu Cheng must be a bit of an official and businessman with such a young age and such a big achievement.

Especially the few performances that Gu Cheng cooperated with him were too deceptive.

"That's right...... Then there's nothing you can do to help with that. ”

Gu Cheng patted Quan Shunyu on the shoulder: "Don't ink, whether you can help it or not, say it and listen to it first." ”

Quan Shunyu pondered and said: "It's a broker's business, I don't know if you're interested." Of course, there is not much money, the key is to help people sell personal favors -- Huaxia Unicom is talking with SK Telecom and Samsung about the introduction of CDMA standard networks.

Samsung and SK Telecom want to sell the full version of the CDMA service in one step, but the people of Huaxia Unicom are very unimpressed, and have been actively asking for a price reduction and only buying a castrated version of the pure voice communication service, and do not want the full data Internet version of CDMA. So they're trying to find a way to make peace through various channels. ”

This matter is a bit professional, but fortunately, Gu Cheng had some common sense about the development history of the mobile Internet in his previous life, and it took a few minutes to confirm it repeatedly before he understood what Quan Shunyu was talking about.

Historically, in 2002, Huaxia Unicom took the lead in introducing 2.5G CDMA when China Mobile still insisted on using the 2G GSM network in order to "upgrade to a new generation of network to get the opportunity to reverse the decline in competition against Huaxia Mobile".

When Unicom just upgraded to the CDMA era, almost all CDMA mobile phones on the market were Samsung's, which shows that in this network system upgrade case, Dongyi people are the biggest behind-the-scenes promoters.

In fact, it is clear that Samsung is not the only one in this business that has received technology and equipment output. Samsung mainly sells terminal mobile phones, and SK Telecom's subsidiaries benefit the most from the sales of base station equipment on the network side.

SK is the third of Dongyi's five chaebols, smaller than Samsung and Hyundai, and a little stronger than LG and Rakuten.

To be fair, when Dongyi people promoted CDMA technology to Huaxia Unicom in 02, the price was quite fair, and it was rare to give a low price. But there is actually another secret behind this matter:

Because at the time of the transaction, SK Telecom and two other telecom operators were ordered to die by the Ministry of Foreign Communications and the Ministry of Culture and Sports of Dongyi, and in order to cooperate with the Sangyi World Cup, the three major operators of Dongyi must upgrade their networks to the 3G era before the World Cup starts in June.

In other words, SK Telecom, which uses the CDMA standard, will have to upgrade its network to EVDO (CDMA2000).

After the upgrade to EVDO, CDMA technology will gradually be phased out in Dongyi. So SK Telecom and Samsung want to dump this pot to Huaxia Unicom as soon as possible.

However, from the perspective of Huaxia Unicom, CDMA is indeed half a generation more advanced than what they are using.

As for being six years behind the Dongyi people, strictly speaking, it is not a problem, and it may be more in line with the needs of China's national conditions:

Historically, Dongyi's SK Telecom began to operate the CDMA network as early as 1996, and lost it to Huaxia Unicom in 02, and used EVDO by itself, and Unicom lagged behind for 6 years.

Six years later, in 2008, CDMA, which had been transferred to Huaxia Telecom, began to upgrade its EVDO, which happened to be six years behind SK Telecom.

Before the start of the 4G era, Huaxia's mobile Internet has always been 6 years behind the "barbarians". The senior executives of Unicom Telecom think that this is very normal, and they don't think there is any shaking M at all.

At the moment, the 02 World Cup is still a month away. Dongyi's domestic network upgrade preparations have been completed long ago, waiting for the official announcement of the new package plan in June.

And Huaxia Unicom is still arguing about how to introduce CDMA, can Dongyi people not be in a hurry.

……

Although this matter is also beneficial to Dongyi people, Gu Cheng is even more eager for Unicom to accelerate the introduction of CDMA.

After all, this matter can trigger a new round of network upgrade war among major domestic network operators, which is beneficial to all domestic Internet companies.

He now wants to be on YY's non-delay voice chat group, but he can't get on the horse because of the extremely stuck Internet speed!

In this case, it is like he has built a Malacca-class giant ship, but he was told by the port authority that there is not such a big berth. He had already built the A380, but was told that the airport did not have a runway of more than 2 kilometers.

Any opportunity to whip infrastructure upgrades, Gu Cheng should not let go.

So he inquired to the bottom of the matter: "Why are the people of Unicom not willing to upgrade the complete CDMA in one step, but would rather buy the castrated version at a slightly cheaper price?" ”

For this, Gu Cheng couldn't figure it out at all.

Quan Shunyu also replied helplessly: "According to the situation from the previous negotiations, I heard that Unicom feels that there is still a long time to go in the cold winter period of the Internet, and there is no use for the introduction of CDMA's data Internet access part of the business." They just fancy the voice call quality and low radiation of CDMA, and want to play that card to attract mobile users. ”

Even the 2.5G network, which is also CDMA, is divided into multiple versions. Just like in the 3G era, the mobile phone speed is also divided into HSDPA/HSUPA/HSPA...... A bunch of minor versions.

The original castrated version of CDMA, but the call function and radiation are better than the 2G GSM call, but the data network speed is not significantly improved, and the final "complete body" can reach the network speed of 153KB per second, which is about 8 times faster than the 20KB of GPRS.

Historically, China Unicom later introduced a full version of 153KB/s Internet speed, and launched Internet mobile phones and USB Internet cards (for laptops to CDMA networks), but that was in 2004, that is, a year after the end of the Internet winter.

In 02, because I didn't know when the Internet winter would end, Unicom would rather spend a little less money to buy a castrated version than do it in one step, in line with the caution of state-owned enterprises.

This trick later led to a series of waste of repeated construction of network equipment, which can be done at one time, but it has to be disassembled to cost two rounds of effort (because the castrated base station bought in 02 quickly fell behind, and in 04 had to upgrade the hardware again)

What's more, this behavior led to a series of bad effects later, such as allowing Huaxia Mobile to also see the feasibility of "obviously giving the people one step in place, but taking two steps to scrape the money again".

Then in 2006, when Huaxia Mobile also felt that it needed to upgrade its mobile Internet, it was clear that there was already a mature 3G technology around the world that could be used, but it just wanted to get an EDGE "2.75G" to last for a year and a half.

In the end, it was found that the people were not fooled, everyone just refused to use EDGE, and did not let the mobile cut this wave of wool and leeks, so the central enterprises reluctantly announced that they would enter 3G in 2008.

The detours taken by CMDA and EEGE have cost at least more than 30 billion yuan in repeated waste of construction funds. (In the 3G era, the total expenditure on network construction in the country exceeded 700 billion, which was only 5% more wasted in terms of proportion)

In fact, with Huaxia's communication technology reserves at that time, it could directly enter 3G in 2006.

Now, since this matter has been bumped into by Gu Cheng, he definitely can't stand by and watch.

Although China Unicom is small, it is a lever, and the development of CDMA data services can make fixed broadband operators such as China Telecom and Netcom also feel the crisis, resulting in speculation about whether Huaxia Mobile will follow up with the competition, so that all broadband operators will break out into an "arms race".

Any dog-eat-dog relationship between central enterprises is beneficial to the people.

Of course, Gu Cheng is not helping Dongyi people, purely for himself and the country - because no matter whether Gu Cheng makes a move or not, Unicom will eventually ask SK Telecom to buy the full CDMA, but not in 02, but in 04.

"It seems that the key now is to find a way to lobby the top management of Unicom, so that they believe that 'the Internet winter will soon pass, and now upgrade to CDMA to fully integrate and provide everyone with 153KB/s mobile Internet access business is just right', and then the rest of the matter can be discussed."

Gu Cheng thought like this.

The management of central enterprises is very cautious, and it is impossible to gamble with the bosses of private enterprises.

Relying on empty vernacular to reason and talk about economic forecasts will definitely not be able to impress the above, there must be real dry goods, and come up with landmark events to prove it.

It's a lot of brains.

That night, he chatted with Kwon Shunyu for a while, and asked the other party to bring all the details of the negotiations between SK and Huaxia Unicom, and read through them all night.

Two days later, after finishing the preparations for the concert in Seoul, Gu Cheng flew back to China.

He first met with Unicom's high-level negotiator, a vice president surnamed Chen. It is also thanks to the fact that he is now ranked number one in the domestic Internet circle, and the other party reluctantly received him.

Gu Cheng told his prospects, and even took the risk of getting to the bottom of the YY business that was being developed and demonstrated, and promised that "if China Unicom dares to launch the CDMA complete data business, he Gu Cheng is willing to transplant YY to new mobile phones in the future, and contract 1 million copies of the mobile version of YY's voice chat group business package."

As a result, this condition was immediately rejected by Mr. Chen of Unicom. The other person looked at him like an alien: just kidding! If mobile phones can use data for voice group chats, what should we do if the sales of voice call fees decline? Is this a stage or a stage?

Gu Cheng also felt that his ideas were too advanced and a little taken for granted.

The direct contact with Unicom ended in failure, and Gu Cheng could only find another way to save the country.

He reluctantly returned to Qiantang and was at a loss for the time being.
