For Alice Group, there is certainly no reason to pass up such a great opportunity. In particular, Zhang Lan knows exactly what kind of situation the global Internet will develop around the world in a few years, and this opportunity will be even more important for Alice Group.

I ignored this point because of "the lights are dark" before, but now I have found such a good opportunity, if I don't seize it, I'm afraid that this is what I dream about when I dream at night in the future.

Because Zhang Lan is very clear about the development of the Internet in the world after entering the new millennium, the word "explosive development" is not enough to describe the rapid development of the Internet after entering the new millennium, or it is almost the same as "tsunami hit", because no one or country can withstand this surging Internet frenzy.

For a country where the Internet business is still basically in the development stage, if she gives up like this, Zhang Lan feels that she should probably go to a psychiatric hospital to see if there is something wrong with her head.

For such an opportunity, John? Chambers had something else in mind.

For Alice and Yulia? Relations between Tymoshenko, John? Chambers had heard about it for a long time, although it was a pity for Yulia? Tymoshenko is only a deputy prime minister of the government, and she is not in charge of telecommunications, so many things are not very convenient to do, but even being able to connect with a government official of this level is a very successful government PR job for the Alice Group.

The only regret is that John? Chambers did not know now that either to President Leonid? Interest groups led by President President Ma, or Victor? Prime Minister Yushchenko and Yulia? Interest groups led by Deputy Prime Minister Tymoshenko are now desperately trying to win over their bosses, otherwise John? Chambers will not let this opportunity go.

"Mr. Chambers, in the future, Cisco will do business in Ukraine, I suggest you pay more attention." Alice, who figured out this link, nodded and said to Chambers with a smile.

"Yes," John who had already thought of this link? Chambers, how could you not understand what your big beautiful boss meant? He nodded very seriously, "Or when I go back, I can suggest that the Cisco board of directors pay more attention and pay more attention to the business in Ukraine, which will be the last market in Europe that is just under development." ”

Isn't that John? Chambers made the decision in a moment's whim, or in the middle of a pat on the back, because he found that the Ukrainian telecommunications market really deserved Cisco's increased investment, and if that wasn't the case, he wouldn't do it, even if it was his own boss who affected him.

――――――――――――――――

"Miss Jill, a 10,000-ton ship just built by the shipyard is about to be officially launched and seaworthy, will you come to preside over the seaworthiness work this time?" On the phone, the PR manager of Alice's shipyard said weakly to Jill.

"Did you go into the water?". Jill muttered, she really didn't expect the ship to be launched so quickly, although there is nothing special about the construction of this ship, the construction of the entire ship is completely in accordance with the international construction standards and technology of this class of civil ships, and even the engine is a large civilian marine steam turbine imported from Ukraine, the launch of such a ship is originally nothing to be proud of for the Alice Group, but the launch of such a ship can alarm Jill, naturally there is a reason for him.

There is really a reason to alarm Jill, because this ship is the first civilian ship with a displacement of 10,000 tons built by Alice Shipyard, in a sense, the construction of this ship is a big test for the growing Alice Shipyard, because although they are all international unified standards, but the construction workers have different levels of proficiency, different management ability of management personnel, and different processing accuracy of various parts, which will eventually cause the performance of the same ship built will also be very different. This is why the performance of a ship built in Europe will be better than that built in Japan and South Korea for the same class. …,

In order to take a good look at the actual performance of this ship, this ship was not sold to the outside world, but was incorporated into the ocean shipping group of Alice Group to test its actual performance during actual ocean voyages.

At this moment, the public relations manager on the other end of the phone was still waiting with bated breath for Jill, the Alice Group boss, to launch such a ship, if Miss Jill can be invited to participate in the launching ceremony, it will definitely be the glory of the shipyard, but for whether Jill will come, few people have the bottom of their hearts, and the reason why they decided to invite Jill is also because Jill said that when the first 10,000-ton ship was launched, she would come to participate in the launching ceremony of this ship.

"When is the time to get into the water?" After thinking about it, Jill asked.

"On the 23rd of this month." Listening to Jill's tone, it seemed that he was coming to participate, and the voice on the other end of the phone involuntarily brought a hint of joy.

"On the 23rd of this month," Jill muttered, calculating his itinerary, as if he would be able to rush back on the 23rd of this month, "I'm not sure." Well, I'll let you know on the 20th. ”

"Okay, okay, I'll contact you on the 20th." The female voice on the other end of the phone seemed to be relieved, busy with a series of thanks, probably she didn't expect Jill to be so easy to talk to, for this task, originally she thought it was just a formality, but she didn't expect to get such an answer.

Was there such a ship launched on the 23rd? Jill muttered, this is a big event for Alice Shipyard at this stage, if the ship is launched and seaworthy, it proves that there is no problem, it means that the level of construction technicians and technicians in Alice Shipyard has reached a sufficient level, then larger and higher construction level ships can start construction in the future, even if it is a military ship, as long as there is adequate preparation, it is not a problem.

"So fast?" Zhang Lan, who heard the news, also looked surprised, he also didn't expect that the first phase of the shipyard had not even been completed, and this 10,000-ton ship could be built? In Zhang Lan's impression, it would be quite good to be able to build a 10,000-ton ship as early as the end of this year, but he didn't expect to reach such a level in the middle of the year.

This is because Zhang Lan does not have enough understanding of the particularity of the shipbuilding industry, compared with the long production line of the traditional heavy manufacturing industry, the shipbuilding industry can be regarded as a freak in the modern heavy industry, the biggest difference between him and the traditional heavy industry is that the shipbuilding industry is a technology and manpower-intensive industry, more figuratively speaking, shipbuilding is a bit like building buildings, in all the raw materials are ready-made, as long as the supervision is in place, the raw materials are qualified, and the technical level of construction workers can meet the requirements. A ship can be built very quickly, and at no slower pace than a building.

Moreover, Zhang Lan also formed an inertial thinking misunderstanding, thinking that a civilian ship of 10,000 tons is about the same as a military ship of 10,000 tons, but in fact this is far behind, a military ship with a displacement of about 2,000 tons, and a civilian ship with a displacement of about 10,000 tons are almost the same in terms of length and width.

"Well, and according to the practice of the international shipbuilding industry, shipyards that can build qualified 10,000-ton cargo ships also have the ability to build 2,000-3,000-ton passenger ships or passenger and cargo ro-ro ships," Jill nodded, indicating that there was no problem with Zhang Lan's question, and this was indeed the case, "However, based on the previous performance of the professionals we poached, it should not be a problem to build a 10-ton ocean-going giant ship and a 10,000-ton passenger ship, in terms of the construction of military ships, There is no problem in building military auxiliary ships, but further research is needed to build military combat ships. ”…,

"This is also very powerful," Zhang Lan nodded frequently, with a hint of longing in his eyes, "I wonder what kind of construction capacity our shipyard can have next year?" But speaking of which, the next step for us is how to promote our ship and make it acceptable to those who are interested in buying it. "You can't let all the ships built by the shipyard digest them internally, right? A lot of words, even if Alice Group is a big business, but I can't digest it, right?

"That's a problem," Jill nodded, frowning slightly, "It's a problem for the shipyard, but anyway, it's good news. ”

――――――――――――――――

When Zhang Lan was thinking about how to sell the shipyard's products, he didn't expect that the seller would take the initiative to contact him at this time, and the person who took the initiative to find the door was still an old acquaintance.

Zhang Lan was very surprised by this old acquaintance who took the initiative to come to the door, because according to the original agreement, if there were no special circumstances, he could not take the initiative to contact him, what is wrong now, is it because this guy has something to ask for help from him?

But it shouldn't be, this guy is no longer the crude oil smuggler he was at the beginning, he has bleached and escaped the catastrophe that he was hit, and then turned from crude oil smuggling into the real estate field, and now he is actually mixed into a representative of the National People's Congress, with the talisman of the National People's Congress, plus the huge and close relationship network that this guy ran at the beginning, as long as this girl's head is not suddenly as if he was kicked by a donkey, no one will move this hob meat-like guy, What's going on today? ……，
