Chapter 21 Political Tasks
"Those notebooks were not at home a while ago, they were boiled with old books, you also know our family's papermaking workshop, buy those old books, old newspapers, old books and come back to prepare for papermaking, how long did I come back to look for it, I know that I regret it after being cooked, and there are several books that I haven't finished reading."
Li Jian has nowhere to find such an expert, and he can't make a few notebooks, and he hasn't had time to write the computer foundation promised Yan Liqiang last time, and he doesn't know what happened to this physical education teacher.
"That's a pity, by the way, what you said about the switch last time, are you familiar with that kind of switch, step-by-step or vertical, or numerical control?"
Hearing Li Jian say that it had been cooked, Luo Rongguang was not surprised, he didn't have much hope, the most urgent thing at the moment was the problem he was anxiously waiting for, the exchange.
The Provincial Post and Telecommunications Bureau wants to buy a program-controlled switch, and needs to find a pilot, I don't know how to choose the Jiangzhou City Post and Telecommunications Bureau, and the Jiangzhou City Bureau does not want to be the first bird, and the Chunjiang County Post and Telecommunications Bureau moved out as a pilot, of course, it does not use the 10,000-door switch, but to first go on a 2,000-door switch.
In the switch market, strong players abound, such as Lucent in the United States, Nortel in Canada, Ericsson in Sweden, Siemens in Germany, BTM in Belgium and Alcatel in France, which are all leaders in the communication industry.
In Japan, our neighbor, there are two companies that use two systems, NEC and Fujitsu, both of which are menacing and ready to sweep the domestic communications market with the big stick of technical barriers.
The manufacturer who came to Chunjiang was Japan's Fujitsu Company, and the preliminary negotiations had been made, but seeing the arrogance of the Japanese company's arrival, and seeing China as a primitive society, Luo Rongguang slipped into the hall of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau by himself at that time, that is, where he met Li Jian.
Luo Rongguang inquired with an acquaintance from the Provincial Post and Telecommunications Bureau before and after, and there is indeed a huge gap between the level of the country and others, so those Japanese people are so arrogant, and they have the capital to be arrogant, if you don't buy their products, then you have to buy Americans, or Europeans, and those products are a lot more expensive than Japanese products.
The most important thing is that if you settle in RMB, it doesn't matter if it is a little expensive, Japanese products are still slightly different from giants such as Lucent, Ericsson, and Siemens, but the settlement is in US dollars, which is a green paper ticket, and this kind of thing is the most scarce in China.
In particular, this is '85, and the foreign exchange reserves of 8.2 billion yuan have just reached in '84, and a few days ago a lot of money was spent because of an agreement reached with the United States to cooperate in the manufacture of aircraft, and this is a sweet jujube given by the United States in order to win over China to fight against the Soviet Union after Sino-Soviet relations deteriorated.
The telecommunications industry is only a small part of the small amount of foreign exchange reserves that we have left, and the myriad of sophisticated technologies and things we can't make that need to be bought from abroad.
Therefore, when purchasing switches in China, we basically first focus on Japanese companies with relatively low prices.
However, the price is only relatively low, it is said that the asking price of a 10,000-door digital switch for each line is 500 US dollars, according to the exchange rate at that time, one US dollar is exchanged for two yuan and eight cents of RMB, and the 10,000-door switch is 5 million US dollars, a total of 14 million yuan, if you add other pipelines, maintenance, auxiliary equipment, etc., it is conservatively estimated to be about 18 million.
This is still the Japanese equipment used, if you use American equipment or European equipment, I am afraid that in the maintenance cost, you will have to add half, 20 million yuan may not be able to take down.
This is the end of backwardness, the war years, backwardness will be beaten, and in the peace years, backwardness will be exploited.
"I just know the principle, but even if I know the principle, the gap between the production period is too big!"
Li Jian knew what a Wanmen switch meant, a provincial capital city in the previous life, but it took two years.
This time Luo Rongguang didn't speak, he only came to ask Li Jian because of his curiosity, and he didn't need to be responsible for the specific things after that, but after arriving in Jiangzhou, he told Zhang Zhihua, secretary of the Jiangzhou Municipal Party Committee, the news as soon as possible, and Zhang Zhihua immediately dialed another number, and after contacting Luo Rongguang, he told him that the meeting with Li Jian was postponed to two o'clock in the afternoon on May 1.
Li Jian, who got the news, collapsed, he was a man of his word, and promised Li Guizhi to take the exam, he didn't think about not going, just heard Luo Rongguang say that Zhang Zhihua wanted to see him, he left a day in advance, and the meeting in the morning can always end at noon, so as not to delay the afternoon exam, the Jiangzhou City Joint Entrance Examination is scheduled to start at two o'clock in the afternoon, and this time it is completely absent.
"County Magistrate Luo, can you make another appointment, I really have to take the exam, and the stakes are very high."
"You haven't been to class for a month, and you still care about what exams, I'll help you ask for leave."
Luo Rongguang said last time that he would ask for leave, but Li Jian refused, he didn't think that he would have to wait so long to see a secretary of the municipal party committee.
"Just ask for leave, can you ask Secretary Zhang, is it okay to make an appointment at night, and he can dispatch it at night."
Luo Rongguang nodded,
"Okay, I'll try."
Ten minutes later, Luo Rongguang came back, his face was a little blue,
"Xiao Li, it doesn't seem to work, Secretary Zhang said, this is a political task, I have called your principal, saying that this is a political task issued by the city, but your principal is full of complaints, as if the city has treated them badly, what's going on?"
When Li Jian heard this, he knew that this matter was misunderstood, it must be that Chunjiang No. 1 Middle School felt that the city took care of Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School, and after knowing that there was such a number one person as Li Jian, he found people in the city through connections and left Li Jian in the name of political tasks, but in fact, this was not the case at all.
There is nowhere to explain, it just happened to be a coincidence, and the idea of Mr. Li Guizhi and the principal of Chunjiang No. 1 Middle School in the joint entrance examination was stifled in the cradle again, which can only be blamed on the wrong time chosen by Secretary Zhang of the Municipal Party Committee, but he can't blame Li Jian for not wanting to go, he feels that he has worked very hard to fight for it.
In the evening, after Li Jian accompanied Luo Rongguang to eat, he took the admission ticket to take a look at the examination room, which was really not too far from the municipal party committee and municipal government, if Zhang Zhihua didn't talk for a long time, he should be able to enter the examination room in time, and the premise was that the examination room was still allowed to be late.
