Speaking of which, Wang Zhan's lost and found platform still has certain technical barriers, because he finally persuaded the new president of TBB to sign an exclusive cooperation agreement, and the two sides said that the same communication protocol will be used to interconnect each other, and each other's wireless networks will be strengthened, and together they will form a program that can identify the user's usual route, which is a huge technical barrier to competitors.

In this way, it can prevent the bottomless Qiu family from copying his lock screen idea.

However, TBB's life is not easy, because the operator's big media are criticizing them, saying that they use guò to get Internet access through the user's broadband belt, but they do not need to spend a huge amount of investment in telecommunications infrastructure, and may be noticed by the competent authority.

Until the issue of telecom licenses is resolved, TBB is unlikely to sell their city-wide WIFI, which may be N times cheaper, to end users, and they originally planned to sell city-wide WIFI for 100 yuan and 8G/month.

The hard-working president's current trick is to cooperate with podcasts and video websites, indirectly sell traffic through guò copyright content, and make money like a little daughter-in-law and angry bag, Wang Bang is relaxed and gloating.

It is possible to do a little easier to do wireless network business in Africa. In fact, more than 40 drone drop points can provide a full-coverage airdrop network for a Chinese province, which still has a great impact on Wang Zhan himself. This means that about 1,000 drone drop centers will be able to cover the entire African continent, this lost land.

TBB has been sold, their business has not yet opened in Africa, of course, mobile phones are not widely used here, how can anyone use drones to deliver packages? Only in extreme cases will someone need life-saving medicines, and that is basically a negligible business.

The fact that drones can cover Africa cheaply but cannot carry out business has planted a seed in Wang Zhan's heart in ignorance. He felt in a daze that there would be an intermediate state between these two contradictions, as for what? He thought he would figure it out someday.

Everywhere in the world there will be rich and poor, even in the poorest African countries, there will be a landlord in a village, right? Needless to say, 1% of landlords will always have it, and these rich people are in non-first-tier cities in Africa, but they don't even have basic telecommunication services, which is pitiful.

If they can partially solve their problems, it will be a huge market.

There are 800 million people in sub-Saharan Africa, and if 1% of the population has some spending power, there is a huge market of 8 million, a virgin land that no one cares about.

In this regard, Facebook's solar-powered airplane base station and Google's balloon base station are both very good ideas, but they both have archways for the benefit of the African people, and Wang Zhan looks down on this kind of product that cannot be expanded on a large scale, so he wants to create a new way to sell to this 1% of African consumers and make a lot of money.

Wang Fang called Ouyang Fen, who was familiar with the African market, to discuss the major issues of African development.

Wang Zhan: "What is the abbreviation of BBC?" ”

Ouyang Fen: "BBC. ”

Wang Zhan: "If I want to create an African broadcaster, what abbreviation should I use?" ”

Ouyang Fen: "Uh...... ABC, if you don't hate having the same name as the American Broadcasting Corporation. But...... Why did you open an African Broadcasting Company? Is it because you can recruit a lot of beautiful female anchors? ”

Wang Bang said angrily: "Then I can't go to Africa to open a broadcasting company!" I don't have this particular fetish. ”

Ouyang Fen smiled: "This is also true, men become bad when they are rich, why haven't you become bad yet?" Or is it hidden that I don't see it? ”

Wang Zhan: "Okay, there is business. I wanted to do something that no one had done before, sell mobile phones to Africans, even in places where there was no electricity and no telecommunications, and I came up with a very extreme solution -- using a delayed Internet model. What does that mean? It is to first sell solar mobile phones to African villagers, solve the electricity problem, and then copy a copy of the mainstream Internet functions and build them into the mobile phones.

It is preliminarily determined that there will be several kinds: first, graphic news; second, broadcasting; Third, SMS and email; Fourth, voice text messages; Fifth, e-books; Sixth, air tickets, train tickets and hotel reservations; Seventh, e-commerce; Eighth, financial services.

Our development team will customize these services so that most of their numbers are built into their phones, and then update them in non-real-time. It will be updated every hour or so. Because we use the gliding drones I invented to cover the entire continent, these drones just hover over the villages and update the service requests from their phones to our servers.

That is to say, the mobile phones we sell to Africans have a very strange attribute, which are updated every hour, updating users with news, radio, text messages, emails, e-books, submitting orders for air tickets, train tickets, hotels, orders for buying things online, corresponding financial services.

This bizarre custom internet will cover the continent in a very short period of time, so our business is unique, and before anyone else thinks, we can sell our phones to 1% of the 800 million villagers in sub-Saharan Africa, about 8 million, and I'm prepared to charge $100 per phone for a service fee.

You do the math, and when our business is in full swing, we will have an annual turnover of $800 million. It's a nice little business. ”

Ouyang Fen's eyes widened and said, "This ...... The idea...... It's great! ”

Wang Zhan: "No, I'm just here to make money." Make money that others can't think of. ”

Ouyang Fen: "No, you can not only make money, you have also helped many, many Africans!" Since then, every corner of Africa has the opportunity to access the mobile Internet, you are more powerful than Prometheus, and the things you bring to Africans are brighter than fire. You think that if you can send educational programs to the countryside through a mobile phone, how many Africans who are insulated from modern civilization will have direct contact with the forefront of civilization.

Oh my God, it's great! It's so imaginative! Boss! I've never admired someone so much! ”

Her pretty face was flushed with excitement, and she was obviously really excited.

Wang Zhan: "Really? Then I asked you to be in charge of the operation of the project, as the COO of ABC, you promised? ”

Ouyang Fen: "Of course no problem, I've been to Africa, I've seen how spicy and hard African villagers are, and they can still make money, such a magnificent project, if you don't hand it over to me, I'll be anxious with you!" ”

Wang Bang learned a lesson: "I just set up the project, the technology development has not been moved, and the content of the project is only known to God, you know and I know, and it must be kept secret." ”

Ouyang Fen didn't expect Wang Fang to trust her so much, and she was even more motivated, and suddenly remembered something: "You have to help me take care of Ni Hong." ”

Wang Zhan: "No problem, you can go with confidence, and when the business is stable, I will send him to Africa to reunite with you." Because a lot of the content is unique to our weird internet, you'll have to deal with a large number of content partners, including the educational programs you mentioned. Therefore, the operation should be synchronized with the development, and you should be aware of the confidentiality of the project and the proportionality of cooperation. ”

Ouyang Fen: "It seems that this project can also be carried out in rural China, don't forget that we are a developing country, and this is the case during the Chinese New Year, from cities to small cities, and then to counties and villages, the signal has changed from 4G to 3G, 2G, and 0G!" The place where 0G is the same as Africa, there are 500 million villagers in China, and they all need your idea. ”

Wang Bang: "That's right, but it's not so urgent, and most of the Chinese villagers can solve all the problems when they go to the town to catch the market, so it's better to go to Africa to fire the first shot." In fact, I think the hope of mankind lies in Africa. ”

Ouyang Fen: "Why? ”

Wang Zhan: "Because Africa has the world's largest desert, and only if the desert greening is done well, can the world's carbon dioxide emissions be controlled. I think. If the big machine wants to start, it needs energy, and as soon as the energy demand increases, the coal or something will continue to be dug up, which is a bad cycle. On the surface, developed countries have reduced carbon dioxide emissions, but African countries have increased carbon emissions in a lawless place.

Therefore, the only feasible way to control carbon emissions in the world is to green the places represented by the Sahara Desert. ”

Ouyang Fen: "Hehe! The pattern of rich people is different. I also think it's stupid for scientists to study how big machines collect carbon dioxide, haven't they learned a botanical class? Planting trees is the most efficient way to do this. ”

Wang Zhan: "Our inland deserts in China are not suitable for greening, because they are too arid, Africa is different, their deserts rely on the sea, and Israel's desert agriculture is a successful representative, which proves that it is possible to develop agriculture by desalination." I even have a solution that may be disruptive, and since I have said this, I remembered that I used to be cranky, but I didn't expect that now I am also a person with a bit of spare money, and I can try it out. ”

Ouyang Fen was very interested: "Let's talk about it, a rich idler." ”

Wang Zhan: "The core of my idea is that the energy of desalination is actually naturally stored in the sun. Africa lacks everything, but there is no shortage of sunshine. We can make cheap plastic and film into an inverted funnel, and the water vapor evaporated by the sun enters a spherical space through the mouth of the funnel, and after cooling and saturation, fresh water will seep out, and such an inverted funnel will form a cheap fresh water collector, which can collect a puddle of water every day during the day, enough to feed any kind of plant, which I need to discuss with agricultural experts to know what to plant.

All in all, as long as there is seawater, this kind of desert agriculture can be engaged. We can use modern machinery to dig a 100-kilometre trench inland, each covering 1 kilometre of land, and we can conjure up 100 square kilometres of arable land.

My preliminary estimate is that this sudden change of arable land is likely to have a good economic effect, that is, it can make money, it can be scaled up, and we only need to be responsible for providing the appropriate equipment to ensure that Africans flock to it, I ...... You can turn the desert into arable land. ”
