Chapter 293: Retreat as Advance
readx; "Hehe, I came a little later than I thought, it seems that you are quite nerve-wracking. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Yu Guang saw Fang Zida walking slowly, Shi Lei said with a smile, picked up a small pebble, bent down and threw it out towards the lake. "Ah, it's only three times and it's sinking, I've hit seven jumps before!"
Regarding Shi Lei's sudden appearance of childlike fun, Fang Zida felt a little speechless.
"You shouldn't have said that in front of Rupin, and you're too arrogant. Aren't you afraid that I will report directly to the board of directors in a fit of anger? ”
Shi Lei turned his head and patted the dust on his hands: "Lu Ping is quite loyal, although the contact time is very short, but he can see that he is a person who doesn't like to speak, you have the grace of knowing him, send us back, you will definitely give a word of advice, I believe that you look at people's eyes, since you will say this thing in front of him, you are naturally sure that he will not talk nonsense." Shi Lei picked up another pebble and said with a smile: "I want to try it, can I break the record!" So saying, he bent down sideways and threw the stone out of his hand.
Pebbles skim over the surface of the lake and jump on the surface of the lake.
The light and the reflection of the lake water, the lake is still bright, even if it is more than nine o'clock in the evening, I vaguely see that the stone has jumped on the lake surface four or five times in a row, and I can no longer see clearly, and I don't know if it is still jumping behind.
Shi Lei pointed to Tianmu Lake in the dark: "Mr. Fang, you see, the stone has gone out, and the effect is obviously better than just now, but I can't tell how many jumps it has." ”
Fang Zida frowned, he didn't know what Shi Lei's words meant, but he still said on the topic just now: "You are open-minded, but what if I report this matter to the board of directors?" In fact, you should know that once I report it, most of them will not believe you, and if you say such a thing, you will not increase any bargaining chips, and maybe you will suffer from it. ”
Shi Lei nodded: "This is precisely because you are sitting opposite me, not the other people you are connected to." If it were someone else, I would definitely say something else, each with its own tricks! ”
Fang Zida laughed angrily at Shi Lei's determined look: "Tell me, why are you so sure." ”
Shi Lei shrugged his shoulders: "It's nothing, I haven't had much contact with Mr. Fang, but just because so many employees of Jiangdong Unicom are full of praise when they mention Mr. Fang, I know that Mr. Fang is always a person who will not harm the interests of his friends for his own selfish interests, not to mention that you really reported this matter, in fact, you don't get any benefits, you Unicom will definitely regret marginalizing me." ”
This time, it was Fang Zida's turn to be silent, he was still pondering the real surname in Shi Lei's words, or how far Shi Lei had done things.
"This time, the central government suddenly began to consider the proposal submitted by our Unicom at least more than a year ago, is it really your hands and feet? Who is supporting you? Fang Zida paused, took out a cigarette case from his pocket, took one and lit it, the fire flickered half-brightly and half-dimly under the reflection of the street lamps by the lake, "If you don't make it clear to me, I can't believe you, even if I believe it, others won't believe it, I can't help you anything." ”
"Some things don't necessarily have to take the high-level route, but this kind of thing has the initiative below, and the key depends on whether you can feel the pulse of some people."
Fang Zida pondered Shi Lei's words for a moment, and took two puffs of his cigarette fiercely: "You mean, you have been working hard from the province to make suggestions to the state government in the name of increasing competition in the telecommunications industry in the province during this time?" ”
Shi Lei nodded: "Actually, it's not a suggestion, Jiangdong plus Hangnan, there must be someone to help in Beijing." In short, in the name of economic construction, the central authorities must definitely consider the plan put forward by the two major economic provinces at the same time. At present, the central government attaches the greatest importance to marketization, and the higher the degree of the market, the more it will certainly be in line with the central government's mind. ”
Zida stopped talking, to be honest, he didn't fully agree with Shi Lei's words. He did not believe that the central authorities would really have the determination to completely transition the planned economy into a market economy that had been engaged in for so many years, and that planning was necessary, especially at present, especially in industries such as telecommunications. However, what Shi Lei said also seems to have some truth, if the central government does not intend to give up the means of regulation and control of the planned economy, then the establishment of Unicom seems to be a little unreasonable. I think that at the beginning, the establishment of Unicom actually means that the central government should see the goal of economic marketization, but over the years, although the split of the post and telecommunications department is an inevitable result, it is still a little hard to believe that Fang Zida has broken the situation of telecommunications monopoly.
"The Mobile Communications Bureau has been making a lot of moves lately, and you must know the inside story better than I do. This year? Or next year at the latest? The move is definitely going to be spun off. If my guess is correct, the central government is probably ready to approve the start of the spin-off between mobile and telecommunications, right? The answer Shi Lei knows well, in that life, the State Council approved the restructuring plan of Telecom at the end of this month, and China Mobile began to separate from Telecom, and in April of the following year, it was officially listed to establish a group company.
Fang Zida was slightly surprised, he didn't expect Shi Lei to actually see this. But soon, he smiled again: "You little guy, since you can influence the central government to start considering the construction of our Unicom network, this news can't be hidden from you." ”
Shi Lei said lightly: "So that means I guessed right?" I don't have that much influence, I said it, you have been trying to solve the problem directly from the central government for the past two years, but now the central government's biggest headache is the restructuring and spin-off of telecommunications, how can you care about you? The telecommunications bureau of the Ministry of Railways is still making a lot of trouble, and I can't take care of your communication. Paging this industry, which the river says can call a mess, is now completely given to you and monopolized, but what's the use? How long can your growth continue? I'm afraid it's going to be negative next year, right? In the future, it will be the era of mobile phones and the Internet. ”
Fang Zida had to admit that what Shi Lei said was true, and so did their own analysis, Telecom gave Unicom Guoxin Paging and Shenpu's Guomai Paging together, it seems that Unicom's performance this year will be very beautiful, but next year, the year after that...... At best, in the year after tomorrow, paging will face rapid decline, and Unicom is helping Telecom clean up the mess.
It's just that what Shi Lei said is that he has always exerted influence through Jiangdong Province and Hangnan Province, which has always made Fang Zida have reservations.
"I really can't tell what you say now, what is true and what is false, you little guy, why do I negotiate with you, I always think that you should be older than me? The city is so deep that it is unpredictable. ”
Shi Lei smiled: "I hope for a win-win situation, and I don't need to think about it." The key is whether you want to help the two giants of telecom and mobile all the time clean up the mess. China Mobile has been doing a lot of things about your Unicom recently, right? First the price was adjusted, and then it was forcing you to switch from GS|M to CDMA......"
Hearing this, Fang Zida was suddenly taken aback: "You know all about CDMA?" Moreover, we proposed to build a new network, so how did it become a mobile compulsion for us? ”
Shi Lei still looked calm: "Hehe, it's normal for you not to admit it, you are always a person from Unicom, this kind of thing of knocking out teeth and swallowing blood, after all, it is much better to make a mistake in your strategy than to be forced to turn." I only ask you, your GS|M network has reached the current situation, although it is much worse than mobile, but the gap is always narrowing, you now have the sword of Shang Fang - pricing advantage, if the time comes, when your network set up catches up with mobile, how can mobile survive? Do you rely on overseas markets? Joke! It's just about making you connect and give in to mobile, no matter how nice you say it. If you are still the boss of Jiangdong Unicom today, I may still believe your pretended consternation, but you have already entered the highest level of Unicom, and it is strange if you don't know how much pressure is exerted on you by the mobile side. ”
Fang Zida was silent, although CDMA was indeed a strategy proposed by Unicom itself, but this was indeed a helpless move after being oppressed by Mobile. As a result of blindly entangled with China Mobile on GS|M, I am afraid that Unicom will be limited in the future. Although the approval of the spin-off of China Mobile from Telecom has not yet come down at this time, China Unicom has long known that it is a foregone conclusion. Although the spin-off work will take time, as Shi Lei said, it will take about a year at best. Once the spin-off work is launched, China Mobile will face great market pressure, which is much greater than that of China Unicom, how can they possibly allow China Unicom to have so many convenient conditions to develop? Of course, they would not propose to move Unicom to another network, but all kinds of pressure were inevitable, which gave rise to the idea of building a new kind of network within Unicom, and simply avoiding direct competition with mobile.
Moreover, China Unicom has always taken new technology as the spirit of enterprise, and CDMA is obviously new to the GS|M network in terms of technology, but GS|M has experienced more than 10 years of development, and CDMA wants to catch up, which is almost wishful thinking. Of course, there are also voices within China Unicom that feel that this technology surpasses GS|M in all aspects, but the ideas of those radicals are not supported by people like Fang Zida.
"Are you trying to say that we should take advantage of this and ask the central government for some compensation by retreating?"
Shi Lei nodded: "Just to compensate, lower your posture, CDMA will be CDMA, take a step back, develop comprehensive business, and avoid specialized fields." There is also a new technology as a guise, which is actually quite good. ”
