Chapter 228: Darkness Chencang
"I remember, Director Wu seemed to have been working in the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the Science and Technology Commission before?" Zhou Shuo asked cautiously.
"Well, I was transferred to the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the Science and Technology Commission from ** to the previous year, until the previous year, 1994." Wu Hao thought for a moment and nodded and replied. The Foreign Affairs Bureau of the Science and Technology Commission is not just an external agency of the Science and Technology Commission, but also has the function of foreign affairs management. On one acre and three-point land in Hong Kong, there is still some energy.
"That's great!" Zhou Shuo clapped his hands and smiled happily: "You know, Hong Kong will return after 1997. But before that, Hong Kong was still a window to the West. So I thought--"
"Do you want to import equipment that is embargoed to China through Hong Kong, right?" Wu Hao sighed and said regretfully: "Europe and the United States are not blind people. Those who come through Hong Kong are all they want to let go. If you don't want to put technology in China, you can't get in through Hong Kong."
Although Hong Kong has been a transit port for domestic import trade for a long time, it has been completely de-industrialized before 1997. Especially the high-tech industry, the electronic manufacturing and processing industry that Hong Kong once had, has completely collapsed under the various means of the British government. If Hong Kong's transit port is really that useful, the country would not have to be so upset about the high-tech blockade of Europe and the United States. It directly imported a lot of technologies and settings that prohibited imports before 1997, and then Hong Kong would live together as soon as it returns - how can it be that cheap!
"Haha, Director Wu, you misunderstood!" Zhou Shuo laughed loudly and shook his head, "I don't want to import through Hong Kong, but export through Hong Kong."
"Exit?" Wu Hao was stunned for a moment, and said inexplicably: "What do you want to re-exit through Hong Kong? Listen to my advice. Never touch on illegal things."
Wu Hao is still very optimistic about Zhou Shuo. To put it in the words of later generations, capitalists in this era basically have original sins. But Wu Hao knows that Zhou Shuo's process of becoming a fortune was very clean. This also made him look at Zhou Shuo very differently. In China today, there are too few people who can make a fortune by relying on technology, let alone Zhou Shuo has been abroad. If his flag really falls on the wrong path, it would be a pity.
"Where are you going to say it!" Zhou Shuo was surprised and laughed and cried: "Director Wu, do you think with my current capital, you still need to do those risky things?"
"That's true..." Wu Hao nodded subconsciously. The original sin of capital is all in the primitive accumulation stage. Any capitalist brought white gloves after going ashore, for fear of dirtying his hands. The richer this person is, the more he cherishes his life. Of course, it is impossible to take risks for a little profit.
He asked inexplicably: "Then what kind of export business do you want to do? Do you have to re-export from Hong Kong?"
"Well, it's a long time to talk about it."
Zhou Shuo took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said from the beginning: "You know, when I invested in Menghai Microelectronics, I bought their programmable switch technology from Dream Group for 10 million. At the beginning of this year, after my commission, the Xicheng Sixty-Fourth Institute also successfully studied a broadband cat device. It can increase the Internet speed to 1mbps."
"1mbps!" Wu Hao said in surprise: "If you remember correctly, the Internet access speed of European and American countries is only 28.8kbps now, right?"
Zhou Shuo chuckled proudly: "No, after using the compression algorithm chip developed and designed by Menghai Microelectronics, the fastest Internet access speed in the United States has reached 56kbps."
"But this is not the point. The point is that after taking over the program-controlled switch project of Dream Group, I continued to develop a set of network switch equipment on this basis. This set of equipment, coupled with the high-speed broadband cat technology in my hand, can immediately increase the Internet speed by 20 times!"
"20 times..." Wu Hao said in a daze: "Didn't it leave foreign technology behind? Is this really our country's technology?"
It’s not that Wu Hao can’t believe it. China has only been connected to the Internet for a year. It’s a complete primary school student. If you want to say that you will be rushing to the Premier League and the United States in one year, this is something that Taizu dares not imagine!
Zhou Shuo nodded proudly. This set of killer moves is not just a transcendence in network access technology. Combined with his advanced Internet business awareness, it is definitely a striking beat of the rhythm of the European and American Internet industries! From hardware to software, if he succeeds, the Americans who must be suppressed will not be able to make it within ten years!
"So, you can also imagine what kind of trouble it will cause if this technology trade rashly enters the market, right?" Zhou Shuo hinted with lingering fear.
Wu Hao nodded quickly. After working in Hong Kong for several years, he had already seen through what the capital market in Europe and the United States looked like. If such technology came from a mainland company, various external attacks and judicial litigation would definitely follow. In the end, either the technology was disclosed, or you might simply be sentenced to invalidate your patent, or even theft of commercial information, security loopholes, etc., and then a group of capital tycoons rushed over and ate the lost little fairy without any residue.
"So, if these products are exported to the United States through domestic or any company that has any connection with Liuer Software Company-" Zhou Shuo said angrily and said angrily: "Then I will immediately be the public enemy of the entire American Internet industry."
"So, do you want to use Hong Kong re-export to achieve the purpose of hiding the source of the product?" Wu Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Although what Zhou Shuo was going to do seemed to be more dangerous than he thought, it was indeed unrelated to illegal and criminal activities.
Zhou Shuo nodded and said affirmatively: "That's right, at least before Hong Kong returns, people cannot connect these two products with Liuer Software Company, or Fanhan Group and myself."
"But even so, there is still no guarantee that you will promote this technology smoothly in the United States." Wu Hao said worriedly.
"Director Wu doesn't have to worry about this." Zhou Shuo blinked and said mysteriously: "Of course, others will do the specific commercial promotion. But in order to protect the source of the product, ordinary Hong Kong locals are not so reliable. I think Director Wu can recommend a trustworthy agent for me, and he will help me organize the supply of goods to the United States."
"You have to let me think about this."
Wu Hao certainly understood what Zhou Shuo means. The so-called unreliable locals naturally hope to get official support. Hong Kong is a place where all forces are intertwined. The country must not only have a little power on the surface, but also secretly has many unknown networks of relationships.
His requirements are not high. He can create some false accounts, and at most it is to change the source of goods to Lijiapo or Malaysia. In particular, Lijiapo also has a certain semiconductor industry foundation and is a traditional sphere of influence in the United States. If a bag company can be established, it will be much more reasonable on the surface.
"I'm not in a hurry, but Director Wu can take this list." Zhou Shuo pushed the list of favors that Tu Anbei gave him to Wu Hao and smiled: "If this matter can be done, there will inevitably be many reliable people. Director Wu can choose a part of this list. I can promise that after 1997, I will transfer these people to the Liuer Software Company in the United States one after another."
Wu Hao picked up the list and looked around casually. Originally, he thought it was just an ordinary list, but he didn't expect that the more he looked, the more he would hold his hands, and his eyes were almost glaring out.
"This, the backgrounds of these people are not simple!" Wu Hao said at a loss.
Indeed, Zhou Shuo did not think that these people would have much energy if they could find Tu'anbei. However, judging from the list in Wu Hao, everyone here still has a background. Although they are not related to high-ranking officials, people of that level would not spend so much effort on going abroad. They are either local tigers in the imperial capital or small leaders in ministries and commissions, hundreds of people covered a considerable range.
These people were handed over to him and asked him to choose who was "reliable". To put it bluntly, let Wu Hao receive this favor. This will have a great impact on his future career! Or it will not have immediate results, but in the long run, his path in the imperial capital will be much wider! Perhaps such favors will not have any great use at critical moments, but under the usual news exchanges and worldly affairs, Wu Hao's career will always take one step ahead or have more news in the competition...
How many major events can a person experience in his life? Isn’t it the advantage that he has saved up little by little in his daily life? Zhou Shuo is giving him a future!
"Haha, the relationship between these people is not very useful to me, but I think Director Wu should need it more than me." Zhou Shuo waved his hand and said modestly.
"This favor is really too..." Wu Hao sighed, and found that he couldn't say anything to refuse. No one of the civil servants was willing to be promoted.
Zhou Shuo smiled and took out the documents in his hand and folded them, put them in his pocket, patted his shoulder and said, "Director Wu doesn't need to say anything. The key to our friendship is to communicate with each other. Just like when you heard that I was going to redirect Hong Kong before, I was worried that I would go on a bad path. I know your character and you know my attitude towards work. After all, we are all people with bottom lines, so I feel at ease when dating you."
"Okay, my buddy won't say much, look back!" Wu Hao picked up the wine glass excitedly.
