Parallel Lines of Rebirth

Chapter 621: Foresight is long-term planning

Lei Fang was puzzled. He didn't know much about program control technology, or he had no interest in purely technical things. He asked, "Switch?"

Yan Huangyan turned to Yan Baihu and said with a smile: "You'll have to ask our all-knowing female doctor about this..."

Lei Fang opened his mouth slightly. Yan Baihu was irritated by his expression and asked angrily, "Why, are you surprised that I'm a doctor?"

Lei Fang smiled and said, "That's a little bit. I thought someone like Miss Bai Hu should be a movie star or something like that..."

This is the art of speaking. Yan Baihu's face obviously looked much better. He snorted and protested to Yan Huangyan, "How many times have I told you not to call me Doctor? I'm a full-time professor at Ocean University, okay?"

Yan Qingluan suddenly said: "Please add the word 'deputy' in front!"

Yan Huangyan burst out laughing. Qingluan was the only girl who could choke others to death. Yan Baihu's eyes widened, but he couldn't do anything about Qingluan. He could only vent his anger on Lei Fang and pouted, "You don't even know about the switch. You are so stupid."

Poor Lei Fang, he is a young man who lives in the city, but in this magnificent Rolls-Royce, he is not even as good as an ordinary person and is insulted by a few girls. If others hear about it, they will laugh so hard that their dentures will fall off.

However, Yan Baihu looks very young, but he can be an associate professor in a prestigious university like Ocean University. Even if it is because of Yan Qixiu, he is still a remarkable person.

Yan Baihu produced a laptop computer from nowhere. It was obvious that the material was not as luxurious as those on the market. After turning it on, he started typing randomly and said with a smug smile, "Fortunately, I made preparations early. The information I prepared is very detailed. I will give you a lesson for free."

Then, he explained everything from the types, functions, composition to the operation, principles and systems of programmable switches. Yan Baihu had clear ideas and explained things in simple terms. He made everyone present understand the key points and importance of this technology almost effortlessly. Judging from the teaching results alone, he deserves the title of associate professor!

"So some people say that starting from the 20th century, electronic information technology will dominate the future, and the electronic age is actually the age of interaction. However, China started very late. Generally speaking, there are two stages. The first stage was the research and manufacture of various small and medium-capacity programmable telephone switches in the 1980s. The technology was far behind that of foreign countries, and the market was also divided up by many multinational companies. This is also the main reason for the low telephone penetration rate in the past 20 years. The second stage was the emergence of local area network switching equipment in 1999. In 1994, there was a boom in switching network technology in China. Last year, at the end of 1995, this technology finally made a major breakthrough, which was called a 'revolution' in the industry..."

Yan Baihu paused and said, "Shangning Hi-Tech is a mediocre company. It lacks both competitiveness and core technology, but it has unexpectedly achieved good results in the research and development of switching equipment... Well, let's put it this way, just for Shangning, oh no, it should be said that Wen Liang has this patent. Except for Daxing, Zhongtang and other companies that focus on research and development, there are not many companies in China that can reach the same level..."

"If it is so valuable, why did it fall into Wen Liang's hands? Didn't other related companies consider buying it?"

Yan Qingluan's question also expressed Lei Fang's inner thoughts. Yan Baihu pointed at Huang Yan and said, as if he had finished his work, "I will only analyze it. As for the conclusion, I will leave it to our little Zhuge Huang Yan."

Yan Huangyan had thought about this question a long time ago. He smiled and said, "The answer is very simple. Although this technology has a breakthrough, it is actually of little significance considering the current prospects of the telecommunications industry. In other words, small companies have no strength and big companies are not interested. It is just a piece of chicken ribs. Otherwise, no matter how poor Shangning Hi-Tech is, it will not hand over the gold mine in its hands to others..."

Just like the misjudgment of the development of mobile phones by the postal and telecommunications departments in the early 1990s, they also misjudged the development of the Internet in the mid-1990s. Coupled with the insurmountable presence of major multinational giants, there were not many domestic companies interested in technology research and development, let alone purchasing technology from their peers - if they wanted to buy, they would buy from foreigners!

After hearing what Yan Huangyan said, Lei Fang was even more puzzled and asked, "Then why did Wen Liang become such a scapegoat?"

"Wen Liang is a newcomer with no experience in the telecommunications industry. He might have been fooled by someone... In the current market environment, if it has anything to do with high technology, there will be people trying their best to get in..."

This cannot but be said to be a reason, but considering the Wen Liang that Lei Fang had seen, he would have spent so much effort to set up such a big scheme, only for a chicken rib that was tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away

Is it possible

Lei Fang didn't believe it, and neither did Yan Huangyan. They both looked at Yan Qixiu at the same time. Feng Zhonghuang, who had been silent the whole time, spoke calmly, "The young man's methods have always been looked down upon by others, but he has been able to achieve some results. This is the case with Qinghe and Shangning. They all did the opposite. This time, there must be a turning point that we don't know about..."

“Do you really want to start a telecommunications business?”

At the same time, Ning Xi in Qingzhou asked the same question. Wen Liang walked side by side with her, picked a bunch of willows from the willow tree by the river bank, made a ring and put it on Ning Xi's forehead, then stepped back two steps and smiled with satisfaction, "A beautiful woman has her own dancing colors, a little green leaf is better than a wreath, beautiful, really beautiful."

After Lei Fang left that day, Ning Xi was supposed to return to Dongming City later that day according to the itinerary, but she couldn't stand the pain of missing him and didn't know when they would see each other again, so she found an excuse to stay for two more days. Wen Liang took a special leave, and the two of them stayed in Ning Xi's villa in Jingu Garden all day, inseparable. Even Lei Yu, who came to Qingzhou to play with Wen Liang, couldn't find them. Fortunately, Liu Zhihe and Ren Yi were smart and took him to travel around, eat and drink, and nothing happened.

Ning Xi had to leave today, so the two of them came out of the villa and walked to the bank of Qing River, chatting while walking. When they talked about the capital, they inevitably involved Wen Liang's next plan. Ning Xi knew about buying the program-controlled switching patent from Shangning Hi-Tech, but that didn't mean she had no doubts about rashly entering this industry.

Ning Xi leaned out and looked at her reflection in the river. The slender willow branches pressed against her forehead made her look quite tender and lovely. She was very happy, but she still asked, "You haven't answered my question yet."

Wen Liang sighed and said, "What a spoiler, what a spoiler! But since you asked, let me ask you, how is the person you asked me to find out about going?"

"Wan Siwei? As you expected, the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications will transfer him to Beijing to serve as the deputy director of the Mobile Communications Bureau. The transfer order has not yet been issued, but it will be in the next few days..." (To be continued)
