Chapter 124: Light

If the USB alliance can be established, then as the standard creator, the U-disk launched by Dongling High-Tech will become the industry standard. The entire computer industry must recognize Dongling High-Tech's U-disk patent!

Holding the standard in hand, if any company dares to jump out and say that their U-disk patent was invented by them, the standard was established by Dongling High-Tech. What can they use to fight Dongling High-Tech? Tactical back-tilt!

"Develop the U-disk as soon as possible. In addition, the Xiaolingtong phone will be the new product of the communication equipment department next year. This product may not be sold to Europe and overseas like the Shenzhou phone, but it should have a market in the country, Taiwan, Vietnam, Japan, Hong Kong, and other Southeast Asian areas."

Li Dongling looked at Chen Tao and said. Whether it is the U-disk or Xiaolingtong, for the Dongling High-Tech technical department, the technical difficulty is not particularly great. Xiaolingtong is simply an enlarged cordless phone, grafted onto the fixed-line telephone network!

With the technical level accumulated by the Shenzhou phone, upgrading and developing a set of PHS phone systems, which is the Xiaolingtong mobile phone, is not a difficult task.

Of course, according to the experience of later generations, from the beginning of its establishment, this system was somewhat non-mainstream, or outdated. Every 200 meters, a base station needs to be built. Frequently changing signal towers will lead to unstable signals, poor indoor signals, and a whole bunch of problems.

But one white covers a hundred ugliness. Xiaolingtong also has one, or the only advantage, which is cheap. The mobile phone is sold cheaply. When a Xiaolingtong is most expensive, it sells for a few thousand yuan. Compared to a mobile phone that costs over ten thousand yuan, it is not known how much cheaper it is. When the production line catches up later, a Xiaolingtong can be sold for a few hundred yuan.

Compared to the ridiculously expensive pager and mobile phone fees, where the network entry fee alone costs a few thousand yuan, Xiaolingtong's call charges are simply not too cheap compared to them. It only costs two cents per minute, and it is a one-way charge!

The machine is cheap, and the call charges are cheap. Even if it has many shortcomings, it is enough for current users to accept it. It is also the most suitable communication product for the country at present.

After reading the two documents of U-disk and Xiaolingtong, Chen Tao felt that the technical difficulty was not very great, and to a certain extent, it was not as difficult as developing a digital cordless phone from scratch.

"It is not difficult to develop a Xiaolingtong phone. The technical department has no problem. The key is..."

Looking up at Li Dongling, Chen Tao hesitated and said, "Where does its signal come from? Xiaolingtong phones need to build too many base stations. With Dongling High-Tech's strength, even if all the money from selling phones is thrown in, it probably won't be enough!"

This is the most critical problem. If Xiaolingtong phones are launched and there is no signal, who would want to buy them? If it relies on Dongling High-Tech to build base stations itself, the cost is really too great, and it cannot afford such costs at all.

"If Xiaolingtong phones are launched, the biggest beneficiary will probably not be Dongling High-Tech, but the Post and Telecommunications Bureau or Mobile or Telecom companies!"

Li Dongling said, "The future sales volume of Xiaolingtong phones will far exceed the number of mobile phones. Currently, the total number of mobile phone users in the country has not exceeded 3 million, right? If Xiaolingtong is promoted, how many users will it have? 10 million, 50 million, or even 80 million?!"

"Even if there are 10 million Xiaolingtong users, the monthly rental fee of 20 yuan per month can reach 2 billion yuan. Coupled with communication fees, caller ID, and other functional fees, how much is the monthly communication fee?!"

Ren Yuefeng, Chen Tao, Hu Zixian, and others all thought of the meaning in Li Dongling's words at this time. Where does the money from selling mobile phones earn more than collecting monthly rental fees and call charges? Selling a machine is a one-time transaction, but call charges have to be paid every month. If you open a mobile phone card, you might use it for a lifetime and pay call charges for a lifetime.

"Dongling High-Tech can negotiate cooperation with the Post and Telecommunications Bureau or Unicom. Since this year, news has been spreading that Telecom will also be split from the Post and Telecommunications Bureau. This will be one of the best partners for Xiaolingtong!"

Unicom, plus Telecom, which will be split next year, plus operators like Mobile, Netcom, Jitong, Weitong, and Tietong that will appear in a few years, must all be anxious to make some achievements to show to their superiors. Xiaolingtong is naturally a partner for these operators to snatch users and increase revenue. There is no need to worry that they will not build signal towers. Not to mention building a signal tower every 200 meters, even if it is building one every 50 meters, when it really rolls up, there will be operators doing it!

Ren Yuefeng, Chen Tao, and others heard Li Dongling's words and nodded in agreement. It is indeed as Li Dongling said. If Xiaolingtong can really be sold to millions or tens of millions of units, then there is no need for Dongling High-Tech to urge them to build base stations. It is estimated that the operators will start acting. Who would go against money or performance?!

"Li Zong!"

When everyone was leaving, Hu Zixian stayed behind a few steps and walked toward Li Dongling after everyone left.

Ren Yuefeng, who walked out of Li Dongling's office, looked back at Hu Zixian, who stayed in the office, and left after thinking thoughtfully for a while.

"I feel that the joint inspection by the Yanjing Economic and Trade Commission and the Foreign Exchange Department still needs to be cautious!"

"It is true that Dongling High-Tech is a big taxpayer and foreign exchange earner now, but in the future, we still have to deal with these departments all year round. Maybe one day, when we have something to ask of those departments in Yanjing, we still need to be cautious!"

Hu Zixian is an old hand in the world. He has stayed in both Pengcheng and Yazhou and has dealt with people from all walks of life. His worldly wisdom and experience are much richer than Ren Yuefeng, who has been in Hong Kong for a long time. He understands that some people can not be flattered, but they cannot be offended. Keeping them at a distance and giving them some face is the best choice.

Otherwise, these people might not be able to help with anything, but they are good at kicking people when they are down and doing bad things!

Hearing Hu Zixian's words, Li Dongling looked at Hu Zixian a few times, knowing that he was also well-intentioned.

Tapping his fingers on the table, Li Dongling thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said to Hu Zixian, "Old Hu, thank you for your trouble. When they come for a joint inspection, Dongling High-Tech will send them a big gift!"

Hu Zixian walked out with a fog in his head, not knowing what Li Dongling meant by this.

After the rest of the people in the office left, Li Dongling calculated that the people from the Yanjing Economic and Trade Commission and the Foreign Exchange Department were nothing more than inquiring about this acquisition by Dongling High-Tech. After all, hundreds of millions of dollars in foreign exchange is really not a small amount.

Now is not like later generations, where domestic companies frequently go overseas to acquire foreign companies. Now the foreign exchange quota is tight, and the Foreign Exchange Department is also acting cautiously, fearing that something will go wrong, not to mention the acquisition of 200 million US dollars. There has never been such a precedent in the country.

The best way to divert a person's attention is to create another big event, diverting the attention of the Economic and Trade Commission and the Foreign Exchange Department from this acquisition by Dongling High-Tech!

After thinking for a while, Li Dongling picked up a phone on the table and dialed a number.

The sign of the Yuhe Leisure Resort has been hung up, and this place has also changed from a deserted small reservoir to a noisy one.

The addition of several construction teams has changed the appearance of this place compared to before. Buildings are starting to be built one after another. The first change is the fishing platform around the reservoir, which has already been built.

A Santana rushed here in a hurry. As soon as the car stopped, Zhang Xiaocheng pushed open the car door, ran down from the car, and rushed toward the place where Li Dongling was.

"My Boss Li, Brother Li, you finally thought of me!"

Upon meeting, Zhang Xiaocheng, the factory director of the Shangguan Town Component Factory, poured out his grievances to Li Dongling.

Li Dongling looked at Zhang Xiaocheng and saw that in less than half a year, Zhang Xiaocheng actually had a lot more white hair, his face was much more vicissitudes, and several blisters had grown on the corners of his mouth.

Handing a fishing rod to Zhang Xiaocheng, Li Dongling looked at him and said, "The component factory hasn't been doing well recently?!"

With a long sigh, in front of Li Dongling, Zhang Xiaocheng had nothing to hide, and the matter of the component factory could not be hidden from Li Dongling at all.

"Since the satellite dish project stopped production, the component factory has also tried several projects, none of which are very prosperous, and there are so many mouths waiting for me to support. Look at my white hair. Every day when I open my eyes, the first thing I think about is paying wages to feed so many mouths!"

Zhang Xiaocheng's face was full of worry, and then he looked at Li Dongling with full envy, "If the component factory could be one-tenth as good as Dongling High-Tech, that would be enough!"

Zhang Xiaocheng saw the changes in Dongling High-Tech this year. The component factory's advantages before were much stronger than Dongling High-Tech, which was a shell company. But what about now? The component factory can't even see the taillights of Dongling High-Tech, and it is even rumored that the Shenzhou brand under Dongling High-Tech is about to become a well-known trademark!

"Brother Li, the component factory can also be considered your own family. You can't just watch it die! It's fine for the component factory to be a substitute processing factory for Dongling High-Tech now!"

Zhang Xiaocheng put his posture very low, still the same as before. As long as he could support so many mouths in the component factory, he was willing to do anything. Zhang Xiaocheng had already lost his face when he took over the position of factory director of the component factory.

"It's not very appropriate for the Shangguan Town Component Factory to be a substitute processing factory for Dongling High-Tech, and it's a bit of a waste!" Li Dongling looked at him and said.

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaocheng's face darkened, and he looked at the water surface with dull eyes. Since the second half of this year, not only the component factory, but factory after factory in Pingyang and even Hanxi began to continuously reduce production and then stop production, and even close down. Especially township enterprises like the component factory were even more tragic, and those that were closed and went bankrupt almost began to appear in batches.

"However, today, I found Brother Zhang for another matter. I don't know if Factory Director Zhang is interested?!"

"You say!"

Zhang Xiaocheng, who was originally a bit disheartened, suddenly heard this, and light appeared in his eyes. He looked at Li Dongling eagerly.

"It!"

Li Dongling took out a lighter and lit it. Suddenly, a ray of light appeared in front of Zhang Xiaocheng.
