Chapter 94: Ahead
"I'd like to introduce you to a few people, this is Willis, the director of our town planning department in charge of communication line planning......"
Now that the telecommunications license has been obtained, the construction of communication networks must be carried out immediately for NEC, Singapore Telecom and CITIC Communications.
However, the construction of communication networks, no matter how scientific and accurate your design is, is not built wherever you want.
The planning of communication lines, the burial of communication cables, the establishment of relay stations and the arrangement of user aggregation equipment need to be reported to the urban planning bureau, if these are not reported without unauthorized construction, which cable is dug up without knowing it, or damaged, if the branch line is fine, only a small area of users can not call, but if it is a trunk road, it is miserable, the situation is lighter and a large area of the telephone can not be used, serious if all the long-distance calls that need to be relayed have to be stopped.
"We have already looked at the construction line design plans of the three companies, compared them with the existing communication networks, and also considered the current construction projects and the city's plans for the next year.
CITIC Communications, congratulations, your plan has passed our filing, and there is no need to make any modifications, and the construction of the communication network in the plan can be completed in the next six months.
As for NEC and Singapore Telecom, I'm very sorry, there are still many conflicts in your plan that are not in line with the actual situation, such as your NEC plan, Taikoo Shing's current communication lines are very perfect, and the density of existing lines is very large, if your company's services want to enter this area, you have to reconsider the layout of communication cables according to the actual situation.
For example, your Singapore Telecom Group, your plan is basically extended to densely populated areas such as Central, Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei, etc., but not to the remotely located places such as Clear Water Bay and Ho Chung, which is a serious violation of the "Communication Network Construction Regulations" promulgated by us, so we cannot pass your plan either! ”
Before Youde took office, there was no so-called "Regulations on the Construction of Communication Networks", but in order to "benefit the people of Hong Kong for the development of Hong Kong", he promulgated this regulation half a month ago, which clearly requires that all companies that have obtained telecommunications business licenses should have a coverage rate of more than 67 percent of the communication network solutions.
The topography of Hong Kong is mainly mountainous and hilly, and the plains in the coastal areas are narrow, and even if they are desperately engaged in development, the urbanization rate is only 43% so far.
This is the power of the active non-intervention policy, as soon as this regulation comes out, it will definitely benefit the general public, of course they have no opinion, the bitter is the telephone company, the equipment needs to be increased, the construction period needs to be extended, and the operation personnel need to be increased, and these leave funds can not be played.
As for the Great Eastern Telegraph and the Hong Kong Telephone Company, they share the same line anyway, and their telephone network is also spreading to the surrounding areas, and this regulation has very limited impact on them, but the Hong Kong government can boldly announce to the outside world that they treat each company fairly.
"Mr. Director, can we take a look at CITIC Communications' plan, so I think it should be of great help to the revision of our plan!"
This is impossible, Yamashita Yamato, the head of planning of the Hong Kong project department of Japan Electric Company, is a little incredulous, you must know that their head office attaches great importance to this project, in order to start construction as soon as possible, he is the company's top project planner to be sent over.
For the line survey alone, they sent a team of 35 people, and then divided into five teams to survey as long as there are people in Hong Kong.
As for the construction team, to the current position, their Japan Electric Company has formed a communication network construction team of more than 1,000 people, and as soon as the plan is approved, they will immediately rush over from China.
It's a pity that they are fast, but it may be too fast, but the result is to ignore the details of terminal access, this is not a small problem, a building since the completion of its main building, when the integrated wiring, the communication access line needs to be laid together.
Otherwise, just take the external line, the overhead is full of cables are very ugly, not to mention, and often pressed by windows, doors, or something, a long time, or frequent opening, circuit wear will be very serious, for communication companies, it costs money to change cables, and it takes cost to send people to repair, and the cost of such a thing is more, and the cost is naturally high.
And it is often accompanied by complaints, people's thinking is like this, just take people who usually use mobile phones, usually good is nothing, but once the mobile phone is broken, even if it is only for a day, it is definitely a torment.
"Mr. Director, in order to make our group's contribution to Hong Kong's telecommunications industry as soon as possible, on behalf of our group, I also sincerely request the announcement of the plan and design of CITIC Communications!"
Among the three, only CITIC Communications's plan has passed the report, which means that there is another strong competitor for the other two, so whether it is to modify their own plan or understand the opponent's plan, it is very necessary to understand the other party's planning layout.
"Director Willis, we don't agree to make our plan public!"
Joke, the construction plan of the company's communication network is confidential, even if this kind of secrecy is just a decoration for the British, but it is only good for the company to be able to hide one by one, and it is not bad for the company not to disclose it.
"Mr. Representative of CITIC Communications Corporation, the planning plan is completely open, even if you need the communication line layout of Dadong Telegraph and Hong Kong Telephone Company, we can provide it completely.
There are many advantages of the disclosure of the plan, which can not only maximize the use of land resources, avoid the dispersion of lines, and bring difficulties to the follow-up planning and development of land, but also reduce the amount of construction, and reduce the impact of the construction of the project to hinder the normal social order to the bottom! ”
Willis sneered in his heart, make your plans public, let you kill each other, as for the communication network of Dadong Telegraph and the Hong Kong Telephone Company, they can completely change it slightly to give eight false and two true plans, or nine true and one false.
"Well, we agree!"
Since the other party said so, Wang Daqiang did not object, anyway, the plan they reported did not have much conflict with the existing network of Dadong Telegraph and the Hong Kong Telephone Company, and even if it was a conflict, with the company's technology and products, they would definitely be able to defeat the other party.
Moreover, the conflict is only an emerging field, and for them, who have an absolute majority of traditional businesses, people may not care much at all......
