Chapter 494: Base Station

If any 26-year-old young man said such a thing to Li Guigui, he wouldn't even pay attention to it. The mobile phone business is growing, but when will it be able to replace the position of the corded phone? Don't forget that this is 1996, and the future of China is not yet known to even the top seven people in the country.

In the era when it was thousands of years old to install a phone, it is no longer a matter of vision to say that tens of thousands of mobile phones can be popularized, but a matter of courage.

But since this sentence was said by Zhou Shuo, Li Guigui also believed it.

This is not only his own judgment on the future of the market, but also his trust in Zhou Shuo's past achievements. Looking at the eight factories lined up along the Daughter River, what could be more convincing?

"So, Mr. Zhou's next market direction will be to choose the field of communications?" Li Guigui pondered, this news is both good and bad.

Fortunately, even Zhou Shuo values this market, which shows that there is a lot to be done in the field of communications. It's not good, there is a behemoth like Fanhan Group who controls the upstream squeezed in, and a "small" enterprise like itself is afraid that the living space will be greatly compressed.

Of course, if you can catch the big ship of Pan Han Group, maybe it will also be an opportunity?

"Yes." Zhou Shuoyan nodded, and said: "In the next twenty years, whoever has the right to speak in the field of communications will be the pillar of the electronics industry." ”

Li Guigui's face became heavy, he thought that communication would only be a development direction of Fanhan Group, but he didn't expect that in Zhou Shuo's eyes, this market would be so important!

In this case......

Li Guigui quickly made a judgment, and Zhou Shuo was able to tell such an important strategic direction of Panhan Group bluntly. Presumably, he would never allow himself to have any other thoughts. That is, not allies. It's the enemy. What's more, he himself intends to develop in the field of wireless communications, to be honest. I felt a little sleepy and touched the pillow.

He gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay, since Mr. Zhou can afford Huaxing, then what reason do we have not to cooperate?" ”

Li Guigui glanced in the direction of Hu Lao of the Ministry of Electronics Industry, and said seriously: "I heard that Hu Lao is supporting Mr. Zhou behind his back, so the market of Unicom will definitely not be our turn to do it." I still have some relationship on my side in terms of telecommunications, or I will give Mr. Zhou some of the telecom program-controlled exchange, so as to show my sincerity......"

China Unicom's fixed telephone market is far from being comparable with telecommunications, and the two sides must cooperate. Huaxing gave up a little market, and it was regarded as a trading name.

Before Li Guigui's words were finished, Zhou Shuo waved his hand and said: "Mr. Li misunderstood, to be honest, I haven't seen the program-controlled exchange market yet!" ”

"Fanhan Group bought the program-controlled switching technology from the Dream Group in order to obtain the foundation of the network switching technology. Not only will we not want the telecom market, but we also hope that Huaxing can take on this part of the Unicom market. At present, the program-controlled switching is still done with analog signals, and our foundation in this regard is weaker. I'm not ready to continue investing. ”

"Ahh This ......"

Li Guigui is already mentally prepared to cut meat, and with the weak serving the strong, Huaxing and Fanhan cooperate, and it is appropriate to send some benefits. But he never expected it. What I sent out, the other party didn't even look at it! Not only that, but it also gives away a new market!

"Mr. Li, don't think that this market is huge. At present, the program-controlled switch mainly faces the signaling network. However, the development of the Internet will lead to the development of program-controlled switching technology to an intelligent network that is more suitable for computer networks. It's not just a landline network. In the future, with the rise of wireless communication, digital intelligent network switching equipment will definitely have a larger market! ”

In its previous life, Huaxing Group was the world's second largest provider of communication equipment. And it is a company with great potential to win the first place! As the father of such an enterprise, how could Zhou Shuo not understand the communication market? Think about it, the average person may only change a computer in three or five years or more, but how many mobile phones can last that long?

Not to mention not only terminal equipment, signal base stations, network switches, servers, and digital software......

The communications market is definitely a much larger market than the desktop PC market. The network equipment serving the communication market is a strategic node related to the layout of the entire industry!

Later, the base station equipment produced by Huaxing almost monopolized the domestic market and was exported to the world. With such an upstream advantage, once it enters the terminal market, it has the power to destroy the withering and decaying.

Is it to break the blood in the domestic and previous life of the owner Huaxing, or to form a group to complete the unfinished business of the previous life - to overthrow the hegemony of Cisco? Zhou Shuo didn't even need to think about this choice, of course, it was to take advantage of Cisco's lack of absolute dominance and step on it to death first!

Li Guigui listened to Zhou Shuo's sworn analysis, and actually agreed with it in his heart, because this was originally the choice he would have made in history. Maybe a few years earlier, but thinking in this direction is definitely already in his mind.

"Mr. Zhou said this, and I also believe that this market will make a big difference." Li Guigui nodded, and his heart was filled with the same sigh that the hero had seen, and said: "It's just that since the program-controlled exchange market has been given to us, what specific aspects should we cooperate with?" ”

Li Guigui originally wanted to join forces with the two to carve up the domestic program-controlled switch market, but this was vetoed by Zhou Shuo, so there must be an intention to cooperate in the direction, right? You must know that the vast majority of domestic wireless network communication equipment is still the world of foreign-funded enterprises. If you want to grab food, it is easy to say, but it is not easy to do.

"That's what I said earlier, wireless base stations." Zhou Shuo counted with his fingers: "A medium-sized city needs at least two to three macro base stations, and there are more than 600 cities in the country, which is a market of at least four billion." This is only the initial popularization of the market, once the domestic communication network is built, it will inevitably pursue full coverage of the network. Think about it, how much investment is needed for China's 9.6 million square kilometers? As for distributed base stations and indoor base stations, the demand is even greater, and it is impossible to count! ”

With the sound of Zhou Shuo settling accounts, Li Guigui couldn't help but swallow his saliva. This market is too big! Of course, this process may take ten or twenty years, but Huaxing's growth also takes time! When Huaxing swallows and digests the program-controlled switch market, it should just usher in the opportunity for the great development of wireless communications!

Li Guigui took a deep breath, looked at Zhou Shuo and said, "What Mr. Zhou said is right, this market is indeed very important!" With program-controlled switching technology, it should not be a problem for us to work together to solve the network technology of the base station. But to solve the signal problem......"

Both Huaxing and Fanhan used to be network equipment for fixed telephones, and of course there was no signal problem. However, mobile base stations involve wireless signal technology, which is not an easy technology to develop. For research units that do not have a foundation, it is necessary to set up relevant practical rooms from scratch and recruit technical personnel to develop from scratch. Just thinking about the difficulty and amount of work can be daunting.

Zhou Shuo smiled confidently and pointed to a middle-aged man in his forties in the distance. Although he was dressed like an intellectual and had a pair of glasses on his nose, he was a soldier in every gesture.

"That's Director Huang of the 767 Institute." Zhou Shuo said lightly: "Standing with Director Huang is the leader of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, and I think the 14th Institute should have a lot of experience in the signal problem of mobile base stations." ”

Before Zhou Shuo finished speaking, Li Guigui's eyes lit up. Looking at the eyes of Director Huang and the leaders of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, it was like seeing a mountain of gold!

In fact, to put it bluntly, mobile signals are very similar to radars, both of which are processing radio frequency signals. Although there are still very few companies in China that have conducted in-depth research in this area, it does not mean that there are no technical reserves in this area in the military research institute.

It was normal for Zhou Shuo to be able to see this, because Hua Xing did this in his previous life. CLP 14 is a veteran military research institute in China, with a history of the same age as the Republic of China, and the birthplace of China's radar industry. In the previous life, in order to make a breakthrough in mobile technology, Huaxing treated the 14 institutes as a vegetable basket and poached many big bulls who did RF technology.

"How about it, Mr. Li will solve the signal problem, and Fanhan Group can be responsible for the research and development of intelligent network equipment. In terms of servers, we have also accumulated some accumulation. Win the technology of 14 institutes, and we will divide this market equally. ”

"The status of the 14 institutes in the country, I'm afraid it's not easy to mess with......" Although Li Guigui was eager to try it in his heart, he showed a look of embarrassment on his face.

"Mr. Li can choose to poach people, or he can choose to cooperate. Specifically, I believe that Huaxing can make the right choice......"

Of course, 14 is not easy to mess with, which is also one of the reasons why Zhou Shuo is ready to pull Huaxing to do it together. The grievances and hatreds between the 14th Institute and Huaxing in later generations are needless to say. With Huaxing's status in the domestic rivers and lakes in later generations, it is even a little tricky. But to develop the mobile market, it is impossible not to invest in the signal field, so Li Guigui has to be allowed to charge.

Zhou Shuo patted Li Guigui on the shoulder as he spoke, and said with a smile: "In short, this piece will be handed over to Huaxing to be responsible, and the mobile base station is only the beginning of our cooperation, and there will be more fields waiting for us to develop in the future." Whether to eat meat or drink soup depends on Huaxing's own efforts. ”

Li Guigui clenched his fists, nodded vigorously and said, "I know, please wait and see!" ”

"I'm sure Mr. Li won't let me down."

Looking at the watch in his hand, the time for the ceremony was almost over. He has been standing here and chatting with Li Guigui for so long, and he has attracted the attention of many people in the factory. I had to confess my guilt first and walked towards the rostrum. (To be continued......)
