Chapter 25: Is it so expensive to install a phone?

Views:

As soon as Zhao Yi returned to Kyoto and his butt was still hot, Professor Gu asked someone to call Zhao Yi to his office.

When I came to the office, I found that Professor Gu was the only one there. I closed the door secretly and prepared to face Professor Gu's storm.

"Do you know how long you have been out wandering?" Professor Gu began to question.

"I know I was wrong, but I really have too many things going on." Zhao Yi explained.

"I can't control this. You have to know that you are a student and should fulfill your responsibilities as a student." Professor Gu obviously didn't want to hear Zhao Yi's explanation.

"Professor, there is really no other way, and I may have less and less time to attend classes in the future. I have no choice but to drop out of school." Zhao Yi explained.

"You are really so busy. What are you busy with?" Professor Gu asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Professor, I have opened several companies outside, and I have been busy with the company's affairs during this time." When Zhao saw that he could no longer hide it, he told the truth.

"Why don't you give up your studies just to start a company?" Professor Gu became even more furious when he heard Zhao Yi's words.

"Professor, the investment is huge and is much more important than studies." Zhao Yi said.

"Huh? How much investment?" Professor Gu asked curiously when he heard this.

"Nearly 7 billion US dollars have been invested so far, and there will be a steady stream of investment in the future." Zhao Yi said.

"Where did you get so much money?" Professor Gu asked curiously when he heard this.

"I made some money abroad. I didn't want to support domestic development, so I invested in it just as the country was opening up." Zhao Yi did not want to explain the specific source of funds, but gave a general explanation.

"You are so rich. I guess your mind is no longer on studying, so what are your plans?" After hearing this, Professor Gu calmed down and asked.

"I really don't have time to attend school now, so if the school allows me, I want to graduate early. If I don't agree, I will have to drop out of school." Zhao Yi said.

"It's a pity. I'll ask the school. If the school doesn't agree, I can't help it." Professor Gu could only compromise.

"Thank you, Professor." Zhao Yi quickly thanked him.

After getting away from Professor Gu, Lin Hexia came to the door again and said that the renovation of Prince Gong's Mansion had been completed and it was ready to live in.

So I went to Prince Gong's Mansion with Lin Hexia and walked around the entire house. To be honest, the newly renovated house is indeed more beautiful. The residential area in front has carved galleries and painted buildings, red walls and green tiles.

The residential area of Prince Gong's Mansion mainly includes Tingfeng Pavilion, Leshanzhai, Dangshanzhai, Grand Theater, Quyuan, Ledao Hall, Jiale Hall, Leguzhai, Erzhai, Xijinzhai, Yin'an Building, etc. Finally, On the front is the back building.

Passing through the back building is the back garden, which mainly includes the Dragon King Temple, the Mountain Temple, the Pavilion in the Heart of the Lake, the Hanging Flower Gate, the Tingyuxuan, the Fuzi Monument, and the Bat Hall. The inside is dotted with pavilions, pavilions, and waterside pavilions.

An afternoon passed after visiting the entire palace, and Zhao Yi didn't know where he should live. This is not like sightseeing. There were many people at that time and it didn't feel like anything. But if Zhao Yi was allowed to live here alone, it would be a bit cold and too quiet.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yi regretted buying this place. Not to mention spending a huge amount of money, the living here may not be comfortable. According to Zhao Yi, the villas in later generations are quite suitable for living, as are the mansions in Shanghai. At that time, it was Too much money to show off

"What should I do? It's too quiet, I'm not used to it." Zhao Yi said.

"Then you still want to buy it?" Lin Hexia rolled his eyes and said.

"Isn't it crazy at that time?" Zhao Yi said regretfully.

"Then what should we do? We can only stay here, otherwise it will be wasted. If you can't afford it, leave me a room. I will come and stay here occasionally." Lin Hexia said.

After hearing Lin Hexia's words, Zhao Yi thought it was feasible. He could also let Zhou Jinjue and Zhou Jinyu move in. If Zhou Zhigang and his wife were willing to come to Kyoto, they could also move in. That would increase their popularity. Then find a few people to clean the room and cook. It seemed like Not bad.

Zhao Yi, who was not entangled, decisively moved his room to Ledao Hall, which was where Prince Gong originally lived. It was also close to the back garden, so it was good to wander around the garden in his free time.

The room Lin Hexia chose was also in Ledaotang. It was said that it was so popular. Zhao Yi had no objection to this. Anyway, there were many rooms, so you could choose at will.

After choosing a room, Zhao Yi and Lin Hexia went to the telephone office again and asked the telephone office to help install the phone. People at the telephone exchange began to disagree. In this era, there were no private telephone installations, and there was no service for private telephone installations.

Later, Lin Hexia came forward. I don't know what method was used, but it was done anyway. The installation cost was as high as 5,000 yuan, and the call charges were also extremely expensive. This made Zhao Yi, who was already extremely wealthy, feel a little distressed. This gave Zhao Yi the idea of starting a communications company, vowing to raise the phone bill to a point where ordinary people could afford it.

After having this idea, Zhao Yi asked a law firm to handle the relevant procedures. Half a month later, a company called Hengtong Communication Technology was established in Kyoto, and the person in charge of the company asked a human resources company to help find a guy named Ren Zhengfei.

Following Zhao Yi's instructions, the human resources company finally found this guy after all the hard work, but they couldn't pry the corner at all, and the military's corner couldn't be pried by anyone if they wanted to.

Zhao Yi had no choice but to give up the idea and asked the human resources company to find a person named Hou Weigui.

Since the last selection was not successful, I felt quite uneasy. This time I knew that the candidate was not from the military. The human resources company also worked hard and finally reached an agreement with Hou Weigui himself. Now it is necessary for the aerospace department to release the person. This required Zhao Yi to take action, so Zhao Yi used his previous reputation to visit the relevant leaders one by one, paid some price, and finally let him go.

After having the general manager, Zhao Yi asked the human resources company to cooperate with Hou Weigui to recruit people from major electronics research institutes and companies, and to recruit as many communications majors from various universities as possible for internships.

While communications companies were busy recruiting people, Zhao Yi took the time to study the current status of my country's communications industry.

At present, our country basically uses vertical and horizontal telephone switches. This kind of switch is a mechanical switch. The switching speed is not high and because it uses precious metals, the cost is relatively expensive. As for the program-controlled telephone exchanges that have become popular abroad, there are no relevant domestic manufacturers.

The full name of program-controlled switch is stored program-controlled switch. It is a telephone switch that uses modern computer technology to complete control, connection and other tasks.

The program-controlled switches are divided into analog program-controlled switches and digital program-controlled switches. The main difference between the two is that the analog program-controlled switches use space division switching and the digital program-controlled switches use time division switching. For example, the analog switch has 16 internal rope routes, and the switch can handle up to 16 channels at the same time. There are 16 calls. Users cannot make calls beyond this number. However, there is no such problem with digital switches. Digital switches are non-blocking switching methods.

Analog program-controlled switches also have poor call quality, are prone to interference, have few functions, and have limited transmission distances. The advantage is that they are relatively cheap.

And what about digital program-controlled switches? The main advantages are as follows:

1. Small size, light weight, low power consumption, saving costs.

2. Ability to flexibly provide users with numerous new service functions.

3. Stable and reliable work, easy to maintain.

4. Facilitate the adoption of new common-channel signaling methods and create necessary conditions for the realization of integrated service networks.

5. Easy to connect with digital terminals and digital transmission systems to achieve the integration and unification of digital terminals, transmission and exchange. Lay the foundation for the development of integrated digital networks and integrated business digital networks.

At present, the semiconductor company and precision instrument company founded by Zhao Yi have laid the foundation for the research, development and production of digital program-controlled switches. (End of chapter)
