Chapter 206
Hearing the introductions of Yang Bohua, Song Luancheng, and others by Li Dongling, Hou Weigui hurriedly stepped forward to shake hands. ZTE makes a living from telecommunications. The Post and Telecommunications Bureau and Hanxi Telecom are departments and units that can affect ZTE's sales in Hanxi.
Hearing Hou Weigui's identity, Yang Bohua and Song Luancheng were also quite polite to him. Many units, hotels, and factory managers in Hanxi also use ZTE's switches.
"Mr. Li, the movement Dongling Gao Ke has made here has caused a lot of opinions from Mobile and Unicom!" Yang Bohua from the Hanxi Post and Telecommunications Bureau took the lead and said to Li Dongling.
What is called local snake treatment? If it were another company that blatantly said it wanted to engage in PHS telecommunications, I guess the Post and Telecommunications Bureau would definitely not respond, let alone support it.
But if it were Dongling Gao Ke, it's hard to say about other places, but at least in this one-third of an acre in Hanxi, the post and telecommunications are supporting Dongling Gao Ke. Otherwise, Yang Bohua would not have come in person today.
As for Song Luancheng, when Dongling Gao Ke approached Hanxi Telecom, Hanxi Telecom actually agreed to the proposal of testing PHS with Dongling Gao Ke for the first time.
Testing PHS is also an attempt for telecommunications to get rid of the shackles of fixed-line telephones and enter the mobile telecommunications industry through a curve. What's more, this was proposed by the company that earns the most foreign exchange in Hanxi and is the largest taxpayer, so telecommunications would not refuse.
Listening to Yang Bohua's words, Li Dongling took out several Xiaolingtong mobile phones and pushed them to Yang Bohua, Song Luancheng, Hou Weimin, and Yin Yimin.
"The promotion speed of GSM and CDMA base stations is too slow, and the mobile phones that support their technology are also too expensive!
PHS has many shortcomings, but its base station and mobile phone costs are several times lower than GSM and CDMA.
After ten years, it may be eliminated, but now, it can support the domestic mobile phone industry in the shortest time, allowing more users to afford mobile phones, and even export PHS base stations and mobile phones to overseas markets!
This Xiaolingtong is the first mobile phone developed by Dongling Gao Ke based on PHS technology. The estimated retail price is 4999. In addition, an agency agreement has been reached with the Japan Telephone and Telegraph Company, and the Xiaolingtong will land in the Japanese market!"
Yang Bohua, Hou Weimin, and others just picked up the Xiaolingtong, and after hearing Li Dongling's words, they all looked at Li Dongling in surprise. They heard different meanings from these words.
What Yang Bohua heard was that PHS base stations, which are considered backward by the outside world, will have the possibility of being exported to overseas markets. If they can really be exported overseas to earn foreign exchange, then the Post and Telecommunications Bureau will definitely support this thing. Whether the technology is advanced or not is one aspect, but whether it can be exported overseas is another aspect!
GSM and CDMA technology is advanced, but has the country mastered the technology? It still has to rely on imports. But if PHS base stations can be sold overseas, for the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, this is a merit and performance in the domestic telecommunications industry, and Hanxi Post and Telecommunications, which supports PHS, is definitely a great merit in the post and telecommunications system. He, Yang Bohua, has also made a great merit!
Hou Weimin and Yang Bohua thought about the same thing. Their attention was also focused on the fact that PHS base stations can go to sea. Being a small overlord of telecommunications equipment in the country and exporting overseas to earn foreign exchange have completely different meanings for a company, especially a state-owned enterprise.
And Song Luancheng's attention was entirely focused on the sentence that the Xiaolingtong price is 4999 yuan. Just this price, technology or something, is completely unimportant. To be honest, big brothers sell for ten or twenty thousand, and pagers sell for thousands, and there are so many people fighting for them. Even if the Xiaolingtong signal is worse, can it be worse than the big brother signal? He can already see the scene of the 4999-yuan Xiaolingtong being snatched up!
Once the Xiaolingtong sells well, it means that telecommunications can increase a large number of Xiaolingtong users. Every month, collecting huge Xiaolingtong monthly rent, call charges, SMS fees, etc., Hanxi Telecom, which he is in charge of, is afraid that it will become the most eye-catching existence of domestic telecommunications in various provinces. Thinking of this, Song Luancheng's breathing could not help but become rapid.
"Mr. Li, are you not joking? Is there really a chance for PHS base stations to be exported?!"
"Is the price of the Xiaolingtong really set at 4999 yuan?!"
Yang Bohua and Song Luancheng asked Li Dongling almost at the same time. After asking, the two looked at each other and knew that they were a bit too impatient, but such things involve their respective futures and official careers, so how could they really hold back.
"It is expected that Tokyo, Japan, will take the lead in opening PHS business compared to Hanxi. After the first month's sales of the Xiaolingtong in Tokyo are released, we will be able to see the performance of PHS!"
Li Dongling said that the Japan Telephone and Telegraph Company is also basically the routine of the Xiaolingtong. The biggest feature of PHS is that it is cheap. Both call charges and mobile phones are cheap, which can quickly attract users on a large scale.
In the previous life, after Japan opened PHS, it won 7 million users in Japan in two years. Later, it lost to PDC led by Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications. It was not a crime of war. It was that Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications was desperately promoting the PDC standard in Japan. In the end, it pushed for loneliness. Except for Japan, no other region in the world used the PDC standard. Japanese mobile phone companies were also led into the ditch by PDC. It was not as good as PHS. At least there were users in the mainland and several surrounding areas, and the number of users worldwide exceeded 100 million!
"I will report the situation here to the bureau in Yanjing!"
Yang Bohua said that PHS is something supported by Dongling Gao Ke, and it can be sold overseas. These are two completely different concepts. The attitude and method of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau will also be completely different.
"PHS is a transitional technology, there is no doubt about this. In the 2G era, it can be used as a substitute when GSM or CDMA base stations are not fully built, allowing users to enjoy 2G communication services and products in advance. But it is an indisputable fact that its technology is not as good as GSM or CDMA. In the next few years, its gap with GSM in terms of technology, especially in terms of call range and penetration, will become larger and larger!
By the 3G era, it may be completely eliminated!"
Li Dongling was saying to Yang Bohua, and also to Song Luancheng and Hou Weigui who were present. Li Dongling was prepared to use PHS to earn a wave of quick money, and by the way, see if he could fool Japan. He didn't want to fool the country as well.
Hearing Li Dongling's words, Yang Bohua, Ning Luancheng, and Hou Weigui all nodded. But that's what they said, but if PHS technology can be maintained for ten years, it is enough for them to fight. Who can say for sure about things after ten years?!
Who can guarantee that if you work hard, spend a lot of money, and invest in the research and development of GSM and CDMA technology, you will definitely be able to earn money in the future? Maybe you will lose more!
"Mr. Li, ZTE hopes to get the PHS base station order!" Hou Weigui said at this time, looking at Li Dongling with burning eyes.
Li Dongling laughed, "This is afraid that it depends on Manager Song's meaning. Dongling Gao Ke's Xiaolingtong is cooperating with telecommunications, and the PHS base station business is also responsible for telecommunications. Dongling Gao Ke cannot decide who will take the order for Hanxi Telecom base stations, but..."
"No matter who makes the PHS domestic base station order, Dongling Gao Ke is willing to authorize the PHS patents and technology obtained from the Japan Telephone and Telegraph Company to the other party for research and development. Dongling Gao Ke hopes that domestic PHS base stations can be developed as soon as possible!"
Li Dongling did not say which company to give the base station order to. In fact, for Dongling Gao Ke, it doesn't make much difference who does it.
But for the company that receives the PHS base station order, it is definitely a big piece of fat. Conservatively estimated, the PHS base stations needed in the country are all over one million units. If they enter the overseas market, the orders will definitely be a big piece of fat.
Song Luancheng saw the look Hou Weigui threw over, and also smiled, laughed, and said, "Hanxi Telecom is of course willing to cooperate with ZTE, but we must see the things. We must not delay the time for Hanxi Telecom to open PHS business. This is a prerequisite!"
"ZTE will definitely not let everyone down," Hou Weigui is low-key, but at this time, he is full of momentum, "ZTE will draw no less than 300 R&D personnel to develop ZTE's PHS base station in the shortest time!"
"I will also ask the bureau for instructions to provide support for companies that research and develop PHS base stations and technology. Not only in the country, if the sales of the Xiaolingtong can meet expectations, according to the agreement between Dongling Gao Ke and the Japan Telephone and Telegraph Company, Dongling Gao Ke also has the right to sell PHS technology overseas!
By then, domestic PHS base stations and mobile phones should also enter the overseas market!"
Yang Bohua said that compared to Song Luancheng and Hou Weigui, he thought further. Whether it is ZTE going overseas, or the Chrysanthemum Factory, Julong, and Oriental Communications selling PHS base stations overseas, it doesn't make much difference to the Post and Telecommunications Bureau. The most important thing is to sell domestic PHS base stations overseas. This is crucial!
After leaving the Yushan Leisure Resort, everyone left in a hurry. Yang Bohua flew directly to Yanjing to report to the Yanjing Post and Telecommunications Bureau. Song Luancheng reported to the Yanjing Telecom headquarters and began to prepare to lay PHS base stations in the provincial capital, Pingyang, and Shangzhong with great fanfare.
ZTE, under the leadership of Hou Weigui, began to draw all R&D personnel, took the information from Dongling Gao Ke, and began to research PHS base stations.
As for Dongling Gao Ke, it was step by step, researching the Japanese operating interface Xiaolingtong, and began to adjust production capacity, preparing for mass production of the Xiaolingtong.
But in Tokyo, the movement made by the Japan Telephone and Telegraph Company was much larger. Nakamura Takeo, who returned to Japan, declared through various media and declared with great fanfare how much credit he had for this trip to Hanxi. In his mouth, he directly made Hanxi start using PHS communication this time, as if he were the godfather of the Japanese telecommunications industry...
But no matter how he boasted, the Japan Telephone and Telegraph Company began to lay PHS base stations on a large scale in Tokyo to prepare for the opening of PHS business. Whether it is a mule or a horse, it has to be pulled out for a walk.
