Chapter 203: On the Eve of the Internet Wave
It turns out that there is no eternal friendship between countries, only eternal interests. Therefore, we don't need to think too badly of the other person, and we can't think too well of the object. Preparing both hands may be the right thing to do!
Cooperation with the Kazakh state is definitely an action to gain the initiative!
Soon, the Chinese side got in touch with the Kazakh state.
Life in Kazakhstan is not easy at home, and in order to improve the domestic economic situation, the Kazakh state is also eager to sell resources, and the two sides hit it off.
The two sides immediately sent personnel to inspect and study the route of the crude oil pipeline.
In fact, China's demand for oil at this time is not very urgent, but the domestic development speed is too fast, and the country has formulated an energy strategic plan in order to take precautions!
The main reason why Wujiang Group is also involved is that the country has no money, so it is up to Wujiang Group to invest in crude oil pipelines.
Wujiang Group also took this opportunity to get involved in the oil field, engaged in oil exploration, development, production and sales.
To this end, Wujiang Group has also set up a subsidiary, Wujiang Petrochemical Company!
The reason why Zhao Ye wanted to establish Wujiang Petrochemical Company was to make money on the one hand, and to solve the threat of China's petroleum energy on the other.
Today, the domestic economy is still relatively weak, and the country is not free to vigorously develop the oil industry.
However, Wujiang Group has sufficient funds, and only when money is circulated can it create value.
Moreover, China's development is getting faster and faster, and it needs more and more oil. If the development of Wujiang Petrochemical Company goes smoothly, the market value will easily exceed 100 billion yuan.
At present, China's crude oil origin route negotiations with polar bear countries are likely to reach an impasse.
Zhao Ye is more optimistic about the cooperation between China and Kazakhstan.
After that, Zhao Ye decided not to participate in the negotiations between China and the polar bear country, which was purely a waste of time.
The main reason for this is that the Japanese are stirring up trouble in it, but why didn't the polar bear country take the opportunity to wait for the price to sell?
The intention of the Japanese is obvious: to increase Japan's influence in the Asian region through energy cooperation with the polar bear country, influence the Sino-bear cooperative relationship, and stir up the "Ontario line".
The polar bear country wants to sell oil to China, Japan and South Korea, and wants to raise oil prices to maximize profits.
Therefore, China in the previous life talked to each other for more than ten years.
In the end, however, the "Ontara Line" advocated by China was replaced by the "Tana Line", and the "Tana Line" was actually an improved version of the "Anna Line" proposed by Japan, that is, a modification plan made on the basis of the "Anna Line" far from Lake Baikal.
Judging from the throwing of the "Tanner Line", the polar bear finally resolutely chose Japan.
Crucially, the Tanner Line oil pipeline at that time did not contemplate the construction of a branch line to China. But in order to appease the neighbors to the south, the Polar Bear National Pipeline Transportation Company gave the statement: considering that it is only about 50 kilometers from the border, when the conditions are ripe, an oil branch line can be laid in a short time, which is technically no problem at all
Technically, it does.
China eventually and did build a crude oil pipeline with the polar bear states, but only agreed to a $25 billion loan.
Of course, Japan also provides a lot of loans to the polar bear country.
The polar bear country is full of money!
Of course, Zhao Ye's impression of the polar bear country is not very good, not only because of this matter.
Anyone who knows the history knows it, and there is no need to repeat it here.
A person with an angry youth like Zhao Ye is, of course, a little unacceptable.
After all, he was quite patriotic.
Otherwise, why would China need to buy crude oil from the polar bear country?
China is fully capable of self-sufficiency in oil production.
Even selling oil to foreign countries is no problem.
China's development is bound to be faster than in previous generations.
And there will be no threat of an oil-energy crisis.
According to statistics, in 2021, China's oil production was 200 million tons, and its imports were 513 million tons, with a foreign dependence of 72%.
The dependence on imported oil is too high!
People can't help but sigh and envy the polar bear, which is a vast country with rich mineral resources.
It is often said that "wear clear and do not rebel, chrysanthemum set electric drill".
Zhao Ye often thought that if he traveled to the Qing Dynasty, he would definitely rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Han Dynasty and regain the mountains and rivers.
It's a pity that it backfired.
At the moment, if a simple and cold number is spoken, no one can help but feel sorry for it.
-- More than 5.88 million square kilometers!!
……
……
"Shock therapy" is an absolute deadly poison.
The chaos in the polar bear country will continue for a long time, which makes it even more convenient for the Wujiang Group to poach people to engage in technical information.
Originally, Zhao Ye still wanted to "leave a line", and he really wanted to see him in the future.
But the negotiation of the Sino-Xiong crude oil pipeline made Zhao Ye recognize the other party.
Zhao Ye was not polite, intensified his efforts to poach people, and sent people to vigorously promote the happy life of those Soviet people who came to work in the Borderless Group in the polar bear country!
This poaching is no longer limited to scientific researchers and technicians, as long as they have a skill, they can come to China to work. However, the focus of the poaching has shifted to teachers.
China lacks teachers, but the Soviet Union has a lot of teachers, especially university professors, who are properly qualified.
As for the language barrier, in Zhao Ye's opinion, this is not a big problem.
Many Soviet people who came to work in China were actively learning Chinese, and in less than a year, daily communication was basically not a big problem.
The most important thing about learning a language is the environment.
If you are in a foreign country and surrounded by Chinese speakers, you will learn Chinese very quickly.
In order to help the Soviets learn Chinese, Wujiang Group also opened Chinese language training courses, where everyone communicates and learns from each other to promote their progress in learning Chinese.
Education is the foundation of the country.
Wujiang Group: This can be regarded as digging the foundation of the polar bear country.
Zhao Ye is not afraid that polar bear countries will not cooperate with the Wujiang Group and China.
Otherwise, who else can the Polar Bear Nation work with?
……
The laying of the domestic Internet backbone network is in full swing.
Fiber optic cable pipes have been laid between many large cities.
ZEISS fiber optic cables are constructed by inserting single-mode or multi-mode fibers into a loose tube made of high-modulus polyester material filled with a water-repellent compound. When laying optical cables, the construction is simple, dig a pit, and then bury it directly, and some sections are laid by overhead or pipelines.
In order to speed up the construction of the Internet backbone network, all parts of the country have been mobilized, and the villagers near the line have gone to work to earn extra money.
Just bring your own tools, hoe and shovel.
The people in China have made a lot of money now.
You must know that in the 90s, there was a large population in rural areas, and the vast majority of them were working at home, and very few people went to work in other places.
Zhao Ye didn't expect that the speed of the construction of the domestic Internet backbone network was really beyond his imagination.
"Infrastructure madness" is well deserved.
In addition, China Telecom, telephone, and television networks have also joined forces to lay fiber optic cables in the city.
When the backbone of the domestic Internet is not built, and then connect the urban underground optical cable, the national network interconnection can be formed!
According to incomplete statistics, the construction of the Internet has directly led to the employment of millions of people, and many industries have benefited from it.
China's development speed has hit a peak again!
After Zhao Ye learned about the construction of the domestic Internet backbone network, his heart was excited.
On the side of Wujiang Group, the second-generation Shenzhou computer has already been developed, adding rich and powerful network functions.
It can be said that "everything is ready, only the east wind is owed"!
At the same time, the Borderless Group also developed a laptop computer, which it named iBook.
This product is also the first series of products of Wujiang Group with the "i" order, and its emergence will definitely amaze the world.
Compared to other brands of laptops, the best feature of iBook is that it has wireless networking! Of course, there are breakthrough changes in other aspects, including appearance, body weight, battery life, computing performance, etc.
In addition, Wujiang Group has also developed the HarmonyOS 2.0 system, which has a built-in WWW World Wide Web browser, but the name of the browser is IE, that is: Internet Explorer.
Microsoft chose the name of the browser very well in the previous life, but unfortunately Microsoft's Internet Explorer is not powerful, and many people don't use it. There was a time in China when 360 browser won the first place in the domestic browser market with the name of "safe" browser.
A few days later, Zhao Ye returned to the company, went to Wujiang Computer Company for the first time, and then tried out Shenzhou Computer 2 and iBook1.
The entertainment and office attributes of the Shenzhou Computer 2 and iBook1 have become stronger, supporting better gaming experience, video and audio playback, photo browsing, and multi-functional office.
"Boss, once the Shenzhou Computer 2 and iBook1 laptops are released, they will definitely lead the trend of the times again and truly open up the !! of the Internet era." Qiu Bojun said excitedly to Zhao Ye.
Without the support of China Computer 2 and iBook1, what is the Internet in the United States?
At present, the networks of Shenzhou Computer 2 and iBook1 belong to IPv6, which is not compatible with IPv4, since the United States does not allow Shenzhou Computer and HarmonyOS to land in the American market, then do not log in, let the United States watch China's Internet conquer cities in the world!
This time, Wujiang Group intends to take the opportunity of the release of China Computer 2 and iBook1 to prepare to promote the Chinese Internet around the world.
In the past, the management of all Internet domain names and IP addresses in the world was subject to the arrangements of the United States.
Now, Borderless Group is going to break this situation!
Taking advantage of the fact that IPv4 is a network protocol in the United States has not yet developed, we will make every effort to promote the IPv6 network protocol!!
Hearing this, Zhao Ye couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly at this time, revealing a confident smile, and agreed with Qiu Bojun's words.
Let's ask, what can ordinary people do when they buy computers now? Email? That's it? Interesting?
If they are connected to the Chinese Internet, then they can browse websites, download software online, chat online, shop online, etc., which is simply cool.
Can ordinary consumers in Europe and the United States resist these temptations?
Zhao Ye felt that it was difficult.
And if the United States wants to catch up, it will take more than a year to say the least.
For more than a year, with the strength of the Wujiang Group, it is not allowed to sell its products to Europe and even other places except the United States.
The most important thing is that once the WWW World Wide Web standard and the IPv6 network protocol standard are determined, Wujiang Group has a monopoly advantage in switches, routers, gateways, bridges and other equipment.
After all, there is no one in the world, and there is no semicolon.
Companies such as Cisco in the United States want to open a new generation of switches or routers, but they are naturally one step slower.
One step is slow, step by step, and the global market will be seized by Wujiang Group.
Cisco's glorious history of becoming the world's largest market capitalizer is absolutely impossible in this era.
"In order for Europe and other countries to accept our web standards! We must make further improvements in the content! Zhao Ye pondered for a moment and said.
Although its own side has a great advantage, the United States is the first power after all, and its influence is huge.
Therefore, Wujiang Group must have a great advantage in order to successfully promote China's Internet standards.
Content is key, such as various websites, software, online games, etc......
A set of combination punches came down and completely laid down the situation.
In order not to give the United States enough time to react, the Borderless Group must apply the "blitzkrieg" tactics to business.
Zhao Ye then went to Wujiang Network Company to hold a conference to discuss the development of website content in depth.
Tim Berners Lee, former vice president of the Oriental News Agency Jian Kaiser and others attended the meeting.
In his previous life, Tim Berners-Lee, the "father of the World Wide Web" and the technology god, served as the CEO, CEO and CTO of Wujiang Network at this time, and Jian Kaiser, the former vice president of Oriental News Agency, served as the COO and chief operating officer of Wujiang Network.
Starting with Borderless Network, Zhao Ye has begun to try to use the more popular titles in his previous life.
After the 80s, titles such as CEO, CTO, COO, CHO and so on were hot in the corporate world.
If Internet companies don't call these names, it always feels a bit low.
Zhao Ye is actually more accustomed to these titles.
At the meeting, Zhao Ye looked at Jian Kaize and took the lead in speaking and asked: "Has the national version of the borderless website been built?" ”
"It has been built, and some employees of the Oriental News Agency have directly joined the local branch of Wujiang Network Company and are responsible for the content of the website. These employees themselves are elites in the media industry, and they come from the Oriental News Agency, and they are far more sensitive to news than ordinary people. ”
Zhao Ye is well aware of the importance of website content localization, so from the beginning of its establishment, there have been multi-national versions of the Wujiang website.
Zhao Ye couldn't help but be glad that he had spent a lot of money to set up the Oriental News Agency before, and now he can see the effect, not only can he expand the Boundless Network Company, but the website can also get news directly from the Oriental News Agency.
At the beginning of the development of Yahoo, there was no money, and the news was copied from other places, which was already second-hand news and lost its real-time nature. But even so, it is not liked by users all over the world.
"Well, that's good. However, in addition to developing the Borderless website, you also need to develop more interesting websites, such as the IMDB Internet Movie Database, which is an online database of movie actors, movies, TV shows, TV stars, and movie productions, including a lot of information about the film, actors, film duration, content introduction, ratings, reviews, etc. Guide users to use IMDB ratings to rate each movie released. ”
Due to the fact that the WWW World Wide Web was not released, many websites were not born in the previous life, including the IMDB Internet Movie Database website.
In the previous life, Amazon acquired IMDB in order to expand its business.
The reason why Zhao Ye reminded his employees to develop the IMDB website is mainly for the layout of film and television entertainment, and then negotiate with Hollywood for film and television versions and music copyrights, so as to launch film and television websites and music websites!
The reputation of Wujiang Group is too great, and it is targeted by various countries, where can it dare to be a pirated website~
Now, though, there's a big problem.
The network in Europe is connected to the Internet and does not support IPv6 networks.
Therefore, in order to solve this problem, it is best to acquire an ISP Internet operator and then update the IPv6 network equipment.
You have to update the hardware to promote the website.
The website is the key to success.
Fortunately, the scale of the Internet network at this time is not large, this thing, ordinary people who have nothing to do will open the network, if Wujiang Group can acquire a few ISP companies in Europe, it can better promote China's Internet standards!
Besides, it's still a super lucrative business!!
