Chapter 115 Tietong

"Because the Japanese market is too small." Zhou Shuo sighed.

"What's the reason for that?" Director Xu said.

"It's important!" Zhou Shuo's expression was very serious, and he said in a cautious tone: "If China's software industry wants to develop internationally, it can't hang on the tree of Japan. The bulk of the software outsourcing industry will always be Europe and the United States, and it will only be Europe and the United States. Compared with the software demand in Europe and the United States, Japan's outsourcing business has neither quantitative advantages nor technical advantages, and the early stage of the industry can be used to train the team, but it is not conducive to long-term development. ”

"And the dignified imperial capital, if it is flooded with a large number of outsourcing business to Japan, then how can we talk about improving the competitiveness of China's software?"

Zhou Shuo secretly sweated, relying too much on software outsourcing to Japan was a very big problem for China's software industry in later generations. The stubbornness of the Japanese market is by no means comparable to that of the European and American markets. Is GE bull or not? As a large multinational company, he has branches all over the world, but only the Japanese company name is GE Japan, not GE (Japan).

The deeply closed Japanese market, which relies on software outsourcing to China, still has a desire to keep as much of its business as possible home. In the end, a large number of low-end data entry, software testing, and low-level development are high-cost and low-profit businesses. In addition to cultivating a large number of practitioners, it cannot intuitively improve the competitiveness and technical level of Chinese enterprises.

In later generations, the imperial capital had 20% of China's software talents, and almost half of the software companies participated in outsourcing business. Among them, in the software outsourcing business with Japan, the imperial capital alone occupies a 60% share. However, it is precisely these businesses that have lowered the determination of software companies to continue to explore the European and American markets, and lowered the technical level of the software industry in the imperial capital. A large number of employees hovered in the high cost of living and low salaries, resulting in a high turnover rate of 20% in the later imperial capital software industry. It not only greatly increases the management cost, but also causes difficulties in improving the technical level of practitioners.

Since he can do it all over again, as the leader of China's software industry, Zhou Shuo certainly hopes that the imperial capital can fight in markets like Europe and the United States, rather than waiting to die in markets like Japan.

"In my opinion, the software industry in the imperial capital should maintain a high-level, high-profit model. Concentrate the outstanding talents of software parks across the country, develop our own excellent software and open up the software outsourcing market in Europe and the United States. Placing the low-end software business such as software outsourcing with Japan in the imperial capital will only make our software industry complacent. ”

"Well said!" The old man sitting in the first seat said in a low voice: "Our software talents must have such a spirit. If you practice in the Japanese market, you will eventually have to compete internationally! ”

Director Xu opened his mouth, but he still didn't say anything to refute after all. In an air-to-air discussion like this, both he and Zhou Shuo have too many cards to play. But since the big leader has spoken above, he has no intention of refuting these false aspects.

"But China's network construction is not perfect, and the software park is built outside the imperial capital, and the hardware conditions are probably not available, right?" Director Xu re-found a direction and asked: "China Unicom was just established last year, and the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications can't even take care of the fixed telephone business, let alone the development of the Internet." Except for the better network conditions in the imperial capital, the network in other regions will not improve significantly in a year or two. ”

Director Xu is in charge of development planning, and if he wants to say that the network situation will not improve in a year or two, then there will really be no improvement. In fact, the early Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications was not enthusiastic about developing the network, otherwise China's first ISP would not have been the turn of a private company, Inghaiwei.

"It's very simple, we don't need the network of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications." Zhou Shuo said lightly.

Director Xu smiled and said, "Communication service, who else can you find if you don't look for the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications?" ”

"And the Ministry of Railways." Zhou Shuo said seriously.

Director Xu was stunned and said, "Could it be that you are talking about it!" ”

"Rail communication network." Zhou Shuo nodded yes and said: "The railway communication network has now begun to be programme-controlled, and compared with the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, the Ministry of Railways is more enthusiastic about developing communication business. As long as there is a railway communication network in the place where the railway is connected, the network formed by using the railway communication can not only solve the problem of data transmission, but also make use of the nation's software manpower to re-subcontract through the network. ”

Zhou Shuo said that there is a basis for this, and by November 1995 at the latest, China Railway Communication Center, the predecessor of Tietong, will be established, which will become the first step for railway communication to enter the market. In 1997, Tietong was put into operation, and in 2000, Tietong Group was established. Railway communications have gradually grown from a logistics unit of the Ministry of Railways to a small communication giant, which has contributed to breaking the monopoly position of telecommunications and Unicom.

"This is too-" Director Xu wanted to say whimsical, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this statement may not be impossible! I can't help but think that this Zhou Shuo really wants to dare to do it. It is no wonder that he can promote such a plan as a vocational college dean to promote such a plan as a software park.

The host of the meeting shook his head when he saw Director Xu's performance, turned his head to look at the old man in the first seat and said, "Chief, it's not too early, do you think today's meeting will be here first?" ”

The old man let out a "hmm", nodded and said under the gaze of everyone in the conference room: "Since everyone has no objection to the planning of the software park, then this matter will be decided first." As for where exactly it will be built, we can continue to study. The idea of using the network for secondary subcontracting is very good, you can organize a document for today's meeting, and I will communicate with the relevant leaders on this matter. ”

Zhou Shuo waved his fist fiercely in his heart when he heard this, and communicated with the relevant leaders, what did he communicate? I am afraid that it is a question of whether the railway communication network is usable. Compared with the construction of a software park in the imperial capital, the chief should pay more attention to revitalizing the software talent market of the entire country.

In any case, the software park plan is a big step forward. It is pure self-deception to expect to sit at home and fall on your head because you have opened up the pre-market project. In the mall, what point of gain is not fought for? As long as you keep moving forward, even small progress will lead to a successful day.

Walking out of the office building of the State Science and Technology Commission, Zhou Shuo said goodbye to Wu Hao happily. Just looking at the surface, Wu Hao seemed to be even happier than him. But it's relieved to think about it, for Zhou Shuo, this is just the first step of the long march, but as long as the software park plan is confirmed, Wu Hao can almost enjoy the joy of success.

Zhou Shuo walked a few steps, and a dripping sound suddenly sounded on his waist. This is the BB machine he only got after returning to China, and he dislikes that Big Brother is too cumbersome, but there are more and more things, so he has to do a paging first and barely cope. Anyway, it won't be long before there will be digital machines sold in China this year.

He found a payphone on the side of the road and dialed the number on it. The phone beeped twice and was picked up.

He picked up the phone and shouted "Hey", and listened to what it said: "Principal Zhou, right?" I'm Niu Xing, when we met at the airport, you gave me a business card. ”

Zhou Shuo smiled in surprise: "It turned out to be Mr. Niu, hello hello!" Shall we come out and sit when we have time? ”

The two of them were originally affectionate and concubines, and immediately the thunder aroused the fire, and when they said a place, they beat the horses and left.

When the two arrived at the agreed place, Zhou Shuo first ordered a fried mein. Fortunately, Niu Xing is not twenty years later, and his time is not so valuable. Zhou Shuo ate the meal first, and said with a smile: "I just came out of the meeting, and I haven't eaten for a day, which makes Mr. Niu laugh." ”

Niu Xing looked at Zhou Shuo with interest, waved his hand and said, "Principal Zhou is a busy man, and I also watched the press conference of Menghai Microelectronics on TV to confirm that it was you." It's surprising that the current vocational high school principals are so powerful. ”

Zhou Shuo said with a smile: "Mr. Niu, don't be joking, I'm just going to join in the fun, Menghai Microelectronics is mainly in charge of Academician Tu Anbei." ”

Niu Xing shook his big head and shook his head, obviously not believing his words. However, he didn't want to inquire about the relationship, and instead asked: "I don't know why Principal Lu Daozhou will find me, we didn't know each other before, right?" ”

Zhou Shuo scratched his head, this is really difficult to explain, could it be that you will have one of the thirds of China's Internet in 20 years? I had to prevaricate: "I have a branch in the United States, and I heard that there is a person named Niu Xing who wants to return to China to engage in the Internet." As for me, I happen to be very optimistic about the development of the Internet, so I inquired about your information. ”

Niu Xing nodded, obviously not wanting to delve into this aspect, and then asked, "I don't know what Principal Dao Zhou wants me to do?" ”

"Mr. Niu wants to do the Internet, and I want to do it too. I don't know if Lu Dao is interested, let's do a career together. ”

Zhou Shuo was a little nervous, even more nervous than when he was face to face with Son. Getting along with Masayoshi Son is nothing more than a business. But for him, Niu Xing is the cornerstone of the future industrial layout.

As his business got bigger and bigger, Zhou Shuo gradually felt a little difficult to support himself. The Keyboard Factory, the Sixty-Four Institutes, monocrystalline silicon, cable modems, Xinke Computer Company, the Software Park, the Six Ears Software, the First Position High School and the Training Alliance, almost every thing requires his full attention to do.

Or is it the old saying, how many nails can he hit when he is covered in iron? Diversification of investments and poor management gradually began to affect his career. Let's talk about the American branch of Xinke, as soon as Yu Qiong leaves, Pang Zhou will have to be nailed there. Pang Zhou wanted to return to China, so Yu Qiong had to go back to him non-stop to hand over his shift.

With the assembly of a multi-million dollar single crystal furnace, he had to throw it down and run to the imperial capital when Menghai Microelectronics was established. Whether it succeeds or not, it can only depend on Yao Dao's efforts.

He desperately needed someone who could help him with some of his work.
