Chapter 30: The Idea of Expansion (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
"Hello sir, what business do you want to handle?"
Zhao Kang came to the SS City Communication Business Hall, which is the same as the business halls in other places. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info contract mobile phone counter, as well as wired and wireless fixed-line booths.
Seeing someone coming in, the salesman stood up and asked.
"I want to ask, can you handle the business of applying for signal relay stations on uninhabited islands and reefs here?" Zhao Kang said to the salesman who asked the question.
Zhao Kang checked on the Internet before, and Huaxia's mobile signal coverage in the four major islands in the South China Sea is still very wide. It is not a fiction that a foreign illegal fishing boat has arrived in the waters of China and received a mobile text message saying "Welcome to China", and Huaxia Communications has covered all the manned and military islands and reefs in the four major islands of the South China Sea through more than ten years of construction.
The sad thing about Jinquanyu is that there are no inhabited islands and reefs or national defense construction projects within more than 10 nautical miles around, so it cannot receive communication signals.
"This kind of business, I don't know very well. Need to ask our manager. The salesman replied uncertainly.
"Hello, I am the business manager of the SS city branch of the communication company, and my surname is Feng." A middle-aged man walked out of the back door and said to Zhao Kang: "According to the relevant state documents, the relay station cannot be built by private individuals. In addition, the cost of large-scale communication relay stations is also very expensive, and government departments and companies have no projects to expand the signal coverage in the South China Sea for the time being. I suggest that you consider a satellite phone, which is very convenient to use now, and there is no geographical limit. ”
Satellite phones Zhao Kang also booked two, and they will arrive in SS City with satellite TV today. However, although the satellite phone can enable Zhao Kang to get in touch with the outside world, not to mention the cost of six or seven yuan per minute, as long as it cannot change the hard condition of the communication environment of the island, it is relatively weak.
"I have heard that the state is making great efforts to improve the communication environment in the South China Sea. Our company leased an island in Xisha to provide some communication services for tourists to engage in tourism development. At present, there are twenty or thirty permanent residents and tourists on the island, and the number of tourists is gradually increasing, and the number of tourists may reach hundreds after a while. The number of users is not a small number. If you can, your company only needs to provide equipment, and the labor and site costs will be paid by our company. Zhao Kang patiently explained to the business manager, and promised him that he would pay for his own labor expenses, which implied that he could also earn some legitimate benefits.
Although the way to make extra money makes this manager Feng very excited, the construction and maintenance of the communication base station are completed by the communication company itself as an infrastructure project, including construction costs, equipment costs, and labor costs. All the advantages of state-owned enterprises are in the capital budget, but the disadvantages are also in the capital budget.
If there is a project to build an island communication base station in the near future, as a business manager, it is also the fourth largest company of SS City Communications Company, and the construction project can be changed.
The user accommodation rate of the communication base station attributed to the SS City Communications Company is almost negligible, and in order to cooperate with the national defense construction and government requirements, the branch has been in a real state of loss. If there is a large number of customer needs, Manager Feng believes that he can convince the general manager, but unfortunately there is no project plan in this area now.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao. We really don't have such a plan now, and now all the communication base stations are planned by government departments, and we only build them. If Mr. Zhao really needs it, he can consult the relevant government departments. We are now only accepting applications from government departments. Manager Feng reluctantly refused.
Now in the administrative area of SS City, a base station is built, and a lot of money is lost. It's almost the end of the year, and it's time to evaluate the performance, and a group of leaders in the company are eager to reduce the amount of negative profits to zero, and they will definitely not agree to additional expenses.
Although he felt distressed about an income of 50,000 or 60,000 yuan, for the sake of better performance this year, Manager Feng had to refuse.
I thought of the efficiency and attitude of these state-owned enterprises, but I didn't expect it to be so bad. Let Zhao Kang wait for the infrastructure planning of SS City, and perhaps soon Jinquanyu, where Zhao Kang is located, will be covered with wireless communication signals.
By that day, it is estimated that Zhao Kang would have gone bankrupt and liquidated a long time ago, and he would still play island construction. It seems that it is time to go through the path of the government. Zhao Kang walked out of the communication business hall and thought in his heart.
Otherwise, even if Zhao Kang covered all the costs of building the base station, the people in the communication company would not necessarily take care of him. In any case, these companies are capricious and never worry about the lack of users or the collapse of the enterprise, so don't try to find out from them the proactive spirit.
"Hello comrade, I made an appointment with Fang Jiping, director of the Office of the Oceanic Administration." Zhao Kang reported to the armed police post in the city government compound.
"Why are you idle, aren't there a lot of tourists on the island recently?"
When Zhao Kang entered Fang Jiping's office, Fang Jiping had already received an internal phone call from the armed police post.
"Sit, there is a water dispenser next to you to drink water and pour it yourself. I'm not going to be polite to you. Fang Jiping said with a smile at his desk.
"I'm here for two things." After Zhao Kang sat down, he said straight to the point: "There are three islands and reefs 4.6 nautical miles southwest of Jinquanyu, and I want to lease them." What do you suggest. ”
Fang Jiping has always been the direct contact between the official and Zhao Kang, and now the two have a good private relationship, so they will tell him their thoughts directly.
Fang Jiping said with a smile: "Okay! Support for the economic development of SS City is very welcome. However, you should first look for the industrial and commercial department, so that there may be some preferential policies. ”
He continued to joke: "I thought you were worried about the environmental monitoring report of the joint inspection team!" Unexpectedly, Boss Zhao has been in high spirits recently and is ready to expand the scale. ”
"The main reason is that the area of Jinquanyu is limited, and there are few sightseeing facilities and entertainment venues that can be built. Tourists now often complain that their stay on the island is too long. So I'm going to expand the area so that tourists have time and place to get around. Zhao Kang didn't mind Fang Jiping's ridicule, and explained with a smile.
"By the way, what's the other thing, you should have time today! It's half past five in the afternoon, the leader is here, and I'll take you to meet you. You tell him about renting the island yourself. Playing with the pen in his hand and leaning back on the chair, Fang Jiping said to Zhao Kang.
"Another thing is the communication problem on the island. I just went to the telecommunications office, and they said that the telecommunications facilities in SS City have always been planned by the government. Do you have any better advice, the lack of mobile signal is a big pity for Kojima. Zhao Kang said bitterly that he was really worried about the problem of island communication. Zhao Kang didn't know how to solve it.
After pondering for a while, Fang Jiping said, "This really doesn't help much?" After all, there are two systems, and you can communicate with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau about this island lease. I don't think there's much hope, but if you have the chance, you can go through the door of the city government or the HN communication company, so I guess it will be faster. ”
Fang Jiping stood up and said, "Let's go." I'll give the director a call. When we have time, let's go over for a moment. ”
........
"Brother Zhao, I'm Lao Wu. What are you busy with? ”
As soon as Zhao Kang walked out of the municipal government compound, he received a call from Wu Zhipeng.
"It's Brother Wu. I'm now in front of the city hall. Is there anything wrong with you? Zhao Kang asked as he walked.
Zhang Qi had already taken this group of twenty tourists and the supplies purchased by Zhao Kang and took a fishing boat back to Jinquanyu. Therefore, Zhao Kang has spare time to do other things.
Zhao Kang chatted with Director Li for more than 20 minutes and talked about the project of leasing the island. Let Zhao Kang submit the application as soon as possible, and they will report it directly to the Provincial Oceanic Department. He also promised that when Zhaokang Island was officially completed, Director Li would personally inspect it and support the local tourism industry.
After solving one thing, Zhao Kang's mood also relaxed. Through Fang Jiping's suggestion, Zhao Kang has already found a candidate for public relations for the construction of the signal relay station. That was one of the former members of the patrol team on the island, a director of the Civil Protection Office.
"Got time? I'm here in the freezer, you can come over. There's something for you to talk about. Wu Zhipeng said on the phone.
Zhao Kang stopped a tourist bus and drove towards the pier.
"Brother Wu has a good harvest today! There are at least four or five thousand catties of pomfret here. Zhao Kang walked to Wu Zhipeng's freezer, and happened to meet Wu Zhipeng's crew to put plastic baskets in the freezer, and there were fifty or sixty in rows.
Pomfret is also a common fish caught in the South China Sea, although the output is relatively large, but the economic value is not bad, the price per kilogram is about 20 yuan.
"How's it going?" Wu Zhipeng opened his hand and came over and said.
"It's okay, but it will take a little time. It is estimated that I will spend a day or two on Woody Island. said that he may not be able to catch up with Brother Wu next time he goes to sea. Zhao Kang said.
"Wait a minute, let's have two drinks after we're done here. My boatload of fish isn't worth as much as the dozen or so stonefish you keep free-range on the island. Wu Zhipeng said self-deprecatingly.
When he returned today, Wu Zhipeng made a trip to the island according to the usual practice. Zhao Kang had already set off with tourists at noon, but Wu Zhipeng, who had walked around the island, unexpectedly found dozens of stonefish and a lot of lobsters in a certain area.
The stonefish were separated in shallow water by a layer of fishing nets, and Wu Zhipeng counted a total of 37 large and small. There are also large lobsters farmed in a strange farming method next to it.
Why does Wu Zhipeng look strange, it is because these big lobsters are smaller and packed into drink bottles full of holes, and the larger ones are tied to ropes, and there are a lot of dense ones.
Big lobster, Wu Zhipeng didn't want to see Zhao Kang alone, the key was the batch of stonefish. If it is acquired by his brother-in-law, the business of the restaurant will definitely be hot for a while.
In recent years, the number of stonefish caught has been decreasing. In addition, many stonefish are caught before they have grown up, which has led to a sharp decline in the number of stonefish. Some high-end restaurants even feed their purchased stonefish in aquariums in the lobby to highlight the quality of their ingredients.
