57. Far East Telecom

As early as 1877, a year after Bell patented the telephone, telephone services were introduced in Hong Kong. In 1882, the Oriental Telephone and Electric Power Company was established to provide public telephone services, and the company was later renamed the China and Japan Telephone and Electric Pany.

In 1925, the Hong Kong Telephone Company acquired the telephone power and granted a 50-year franchise to the local telephone network, which was interrupted by the invasion of the Chinese army in World War II and restored after the war. In 1968, it was granted an additional 20-year franchise with effect from 1975.

In 1988, the Hong Kong Telephone Company purchased all the Hong Kong Telephone to form Hong Kong Telecommunications Limited, referred to as Hong Kong Telecom, which is the predecessor of PCCW, and Hong Kong Telephone Co., Ltd. became a subsidiary of Great Eastern Telegraph.

In 1990, the Hong Kong Telecom Group was reorganized, and the Hong Kong Telephone Company was officially spun off into a subsidiary of Hong Kong Telephone Company Limited.

With the use of instant messaging radio technology, the role of telephone companies will become lower and lower, in order to change this situation, later American telephone companies used their telephone network to lay cables to implement the third generation of mobile communication network services, that is, broadband services, and later used in data television broadcasting and broadcasting.

Although Chen Yihua established Far East Telecom for the service of pagers, there is no conflict of interest with the telephone company, on the contrary, it can also promote the profitability of Hong Kong telephone, but the establishment of the telecommunications company can be invisibly understood as digging the corner of the Hong Kong telephone company, as long as the Far East Telecom slowly develops, it will further swallow the Hong Kong telephone market.

And Chen Yihua will begin to use the pager, the early stage must rely on the wired telephone to complete the Cheng Ren Gong service, now Hong Kong is still the world of British capital, if Far East Telecom is stronger and bigger, it is quite attractive, but also too sensitive, for Chen Yihua, Far East Telecom can not unilaterally hold shares, it must be the introduction of partners.

Far East Telecom finally introduced partners, for the development of the company is also very good, of course, there is no big brother era, just rely on the pager, Far East Telecom may not be very profitable, must enter a pager a year of network access costs of five or six hundred Hong Kong dollars, and the pager will not be so popular so quickly, plus the telecom company labor costs are still a lot, so it may not be as good as the pager to make money.

Far East Telecom really has to wait until the spring comes when it must be the big brother, the use of mobile phones, this is its spring, Chen Yihua is not in a hurry, the construction of the base station in the early stage of the pager can be completely prepared for the use of mobile phones in the future, Chen Yihua in the construction of the pager peripheral base station asked Li Mianhua to be reasonable in the design, which can facilitate the upgrade of the base station in the future, of course, Motorola has encountered such a situation in this regard, after all, the United States has begun to use Big Brother, so for Chen Yihua's requirements, Li Mianhua didn't feel very difficult.

Now Chen Yihua's Far East Telecom has just been established, not everyone will come to find a partner, and everyone has such a vision, the price of the company's shares must be very low, Chen Yihua is not short of money, but lack of relationships.

When the telecommunications company grows bigger, Chen Yihua will expand his capital, and if he is looking for a partner, Chen Yihua is looking for a partner who does not have to have a lot of money, but has strong political and social relations.

The pager's manual help desk needs limited numbers in the early stage, so this means that Chen Yihua needs a Hong Kong telephone company.

Chen Yihua has now introduced more than 50 telephones for Far East Telecom, which is completely sufficient for the early use of pagers, and there is no customer service center in Hong Kong that uses a number and several machines in this way, but the United States already has this technology and uses it, as long as the company's main telephone cable uses American large-caliber optical cable.

The Hong Kong Telephone Company now charges a fixed amount of money every year or month, rather than by who calls.

Of course, Chen Yihua is afraid that his telecommunications company will become bigger, and the Hong Kong telephone will pull his own hind legs, after all, the early use of the human service desk depends on the wired telephone, if the Hong Kong telephone turns its face, then Chen Yihua's telecommunications company and pager will be completely over.

In order to avoid such consequences, Chen Yihua specially found Li Zade and Ji Ying before the establishment of Telecom, explained the situation he was facing, and then everyone took great pains to issue a document to set a trap for Hong Kong Telephone, as long as Far East Telecom can sign this contract with Hong Kong Telecom, then Chen Yihua does not have to worry about the trouble he may face in the future.

To be honest, it is much more convenient for me to have a lawyer, otherwise who can Chen Yihua find in this regard, Far East Telecom is now a little-known company, Chen Yihua wrote in the contract how much money is handed over to the Hong Kong telephone company every year, because this money is not a small number in Hong Kong now, and the telephone company is very profitable, so the Hong Kong telephone company did not hesitate to sign it directly, and the contract requires the Hong Kong Telephone Association to provide enough services to Far East Telecom alone, and it can also be connected to the special optical cable of Far East Telecom, and the validity period of the signed contract is five years.

Chen Yihua believes that as long as three years, Far East Telecom will not be afraid of the telephone company, and does not use much wired telephone, but with the technical reserves of Tianyi mobile phone, I believe that wireless communication can be implemented, and the signing for five years is just for insurance, and the longer the signing, if the other company violates the rules, the amount of compensation will be more, if the Hong Kong telephone company dares to breach the contract, Chen Yihua estimates that this compensation can suck eight points of blood from its whole body.

In fact, the Hong Kong telephone company does not know what the unified customer service telephone mentioned in Chen Yihua's contract is, after all, I have never seen it, anyway, Chen Yihua just wants a special number, and uses his own optical cable to connect the telephone line network, and pays so much money every year, it is strange that the telephone company does not agree, of course, the optical cable used by Chen Yihua's company, the Hong Kong telephone company has also seen it, but it is a little thicker, and the information circulation can be larger, and there is nothing else very special.

Since signing this contract with the Hong Kong Telephone Company, Chen Yihua is happy in his heart, he believes that the Hong Kong Telephone will definitely regret the intestines can be regretted, for the phone number of Far East Telecom's unified customer service, Chen Yihua is very vulgar to ask for a 10086 number.

The number 10086 in the previous life is known to everyone in China, a very bullish number, it is the customer service number of China's telecom giant Mobile Company, and the mobile network domain name of the future is also 10086.

After registering this number from the Hong Kong Telephone Company, Chen Yihua began to giggle incessantly, and the person in charge of the Hong Kong Telephone Company thought that Chen Yihua was a fool, and he would not understand Chen Yihua's feelings when he got this number.

That is always excited, that is always speechless pleasure, that always laughing impulse, I believe that no one in Hong Kong will understand Chen Yihua now, get the number 10086, although Chen Yihua does not know whether Far East Telecom can succeed in the future, but it doesn't matter anymore, get this number, Chen Yihua feels that it doesn't matter if the company is not successful, he has been solid and disgusting with the future mobile company, not to mention how cool it is, Chen Yihua can't help but think badly, he took this number, I don't know what number the mobile company will use in the future.

The contract with the Hong Kong telephone company did not take Chen Yihua a lot of time, and the telephone company did not attach much importance to this contract, and the review was of course fast, and in mid-March, when the transmission terminal of the headquarters of the Far East Telecom Company was debugged, the company's customer service phone had been received and done.

In fact, the receiving terminal of the pager is a large computer, but there is a special use of software, now it is still very clumsy, and it is not mature to use, with the development of Microsoft, Chen Yihua believes that he will have enough software talents to develop this technology from me in the future.

Transferring people from Microsoft, Bill will definitely not do it, but Chen Yihua can transfer people to Microsoft for internships, and he will raise enough salary, and Microsoft will get labor for free, I believe Bill will be happy.

As long as they have software talents, combined with the technology of Apple device manufacturing, I believe that it is not very troublesome to make a terminal that is more advanced than Motorola, and the pager developed into a digital phone in the previous life, and the group should also be because of the development of computer software, the receiving terminal and decoder of the pager will be innovated and can receive digital information.

Far Eastern Telecom was established on March 1, and Tianyi Company was established on March 16, and the pager products came out on the same day, and then began to debug the test, and the Far East store completed the decoration on March 19 to come in to sell the lady.

The sales of pagers Chen Yihua did not advertise, not that advertising is not important, pagers are not like the comic world, you can do without advertising, pagers are products of the new era, there is no appearance on the market at all, and the price is so expensive, if you don't advertise, how can others know it, how do you know its use, ordinary people see such expensive things, and don't know how to use it, who will buy it.

Chen Yihua does not use advertising, but does not want to use advertising at this stage, although the personnel of the Far East Telecom Company are basically recruited, but there is not much time for personnel recruitment, the company has not undergone any training for them, and Chen Yihua's pager appears in Hong Kong for the first time, no one understands, if the business is busy, those operators must be in a hurry.

So Chen Yihua decided to experiment internally for a period of time, Yanjing now has a lot of personnel, Chen Yihua decided to issue pagers to Yanjing's employees first, only charge them the cost price, Hong Kong is a capital society, and it is also a British colony, there is no labor association, Chen Yihua, the big boss, is completely forced to buy it, of course, the people in Yanjing have discounts, only charge the cost price and can be paid in two months, those employees did not complain much, after all, the price is not very expensive, It's like a big boss's ass.

Of course, now Far East Telecom's first store is in Central, there are many white-collar workers, Chen Yihua will ask the company's sales staff to sell to them, I believe that as long as Yanjing's employees or those white-collar workers use pagers for a period of time, they will be like relatives and friends around them.

The number of people in Yanjing Company plus the number of people who promote their own products believe that they can just be used as a test product in the early stage, which is just right for Far East Telecom, which has just been in operation, so that those young ladies who serve customers of telecommunications companies can have an adaptation period, be proficient in the business at hand, know what to do, and will not be at a loss.
