Chapter 137 Plan C

Steve Jobs was born in 1955. He was one of the inventors of the first personal computer and the founder of "Apple" company that blocked Microsoft's light in Yang Xing's era. His lifelong trajectory is deeply in line with the founder of Intel and the famous saying of Andy Glov, a master of IT industry, that is - only paranoid can survive.

He founded Apple in 1976, and when Apple went public in 1980, he was already a billionaire. That year, the full page advertisement of the Wall Street Journal said, "Apple computers are human bicycles for the 21st century", and there was a huge photo of Jobs. He stood at the pinnacle of his life. Even though Yang Xing's performance is not inferior to him now, his family knows his own affairs and he can only envy this genius.

However, his legend began at this time, and his huge success also heralds a crisis. In 1985, due to his performance decline and he insisted on his own, Jobs was removed from his position as president by the board of directors, and he was forced to leave the company he founded. The "Next" computer company he founded later failed but failed. But the brilliance of genius could not be concealed. Pixar, an animation production company he founded, followed the trend and became the pioneer of the cartoon 3D era, and cooperated with Disney to regain its reputation.

At this time, Apple was in a turmoil. The president of Dell Computer Company even ridiculed the old senior in a disdainful tone. "It is better to end a company like Apple as soon as possible." At this critical moment, on December 17, 2019, major computer newspapers around the world published news that "Apple acquired Next, and Jobs returned to Apple" on the front page. Although it was not clear whether Apple could turn the decline, Jobs's life of ups and downs has well interpreted Yang Xing's request - failure is not terrible, but terrible is defeated by failure.

Yang Xing mentioned that in addition to instilling the corporate culture of not being afraid of failure and being brave enough to try, Jobs also made other references. He watched Apple survive in the Jedi back then. Under the leadership of Jobs, he launched revolutionary digital products such as Mac computers, iPod players, iPhones, iPads and tablets, and he led Apple to a loss of $1 billion to a market value of $222 billion with just one person, overshadowing Microsoft's competitors in the past 30 years. In Yang Xing's mind, his company's biggest competitor in the future is not Sony, not Samsung but Apple!

Since Jobs mentioned, he felt that many epoch-making products that had been prepared with Wu Haijun, Chi Chongrui, Yao Hongji and others for a long time were also at the opening moment, which also gave his subordinates some confidence. In addition to the Xingyue Hotel, the Xingyue Building is the offices of various Zhongxing International companies in the middle, with guards on all sides, and water, electricity and gas lines are completely safe, and are in a secret room with electromagnetic shielding. The security settings are completely set up by Shen Changzheng in accordance with the special confidentiality measures of the Secret Service, and such confidential locations will be set up at the headquarters of Zhongxing International, its subsidiaries and regional headquarters.

Looking at the secret room, three steps, one post, five steps, one whistle, and each channel is densely covered with infrared, audio, and vibrating sensors. Wang Yiren and other senior executives were also frightened when they saw it. They realized for the first time that Yang Xing attached importance to the company's technical secrets. The secret room is spacious and many technicians are doing the final product debugging. Mayor Kan Dongtian, commander of the Jiudu Military Sub-district Liang Man, Zheng Kaiyuan and Wang Yunqi from the 16th Institute of the General Staff, as special guests of Zhongxing International, also came in to visit together.

Everyone was watching the technicians with interest. Chen Changzheng specially reminded him to turn off the portable phone because the electromagnetic interference here would damage the internal circuit of the phone. Wang Yiren and others turned off the portable phone, but found that although the colorful mobile phones Yang Xinggang sent them had lost the signal due to electromagnetic interference, they still worked as usual and did not make the electromagnetic whistle generated when they were disturbed.

Wu Haijun said to everyone as proudly as he offered treasure: "These mobile phones are our latest C Program, with a Chinese-core CDMA-based mobile phone." As one of Yang Xing's three major key plans, the C Program represents Communication, Computer, and Cabletelevision cable TV; it includes a variety of information technologies such as optical fiber, wireless communication, and wired communication network. The ultimate goal is to transform the three major networks of telecommunications network, computer network and cable TV network through technical transformation to provide comprehensive multimedia communication services including voice, data, and images, which is often called the integration of three networks. Of course, that is the ultimate goal. Yang Xing knew that even if he completed the preparation at the technical level, he had to wait for the bureaucratic rules and regulations of domestic segmentation to be surrounded by block divisions, which is only for the long-term plan for the time being, but everyone was still very surprised that they could produce the finished product so quickly.

From the time Wu Haijun returned to Shanghai to contact Yang Xing in 1995, when Yang Xing appointed him as the leader of the technical inspection in Europe and the United States, his main goal was to find promising talents and projects in Europe and the United States with leading IT technology. Wu Haijun fulfilled his mission and brought back a large number of technologies and talents. This is also the confidence that Yang Xing dared to go to Beijing to borrow US$1.1 billion from the Ministry of National Defense, General Staff and other units.

Wu Haijun himself is a double doctor of computer universal chips and mobile phone baseband chips. Under his own leadership, they successfully developed CDMA chips with independent intellectual property rights based on Qualcomm's CDMA chips at the end of last year. After several months of hard work, they cooperated with a Taiwanese company based in Silicon Valley to successfully integrate mobile phone baseband chips into finished mobile phones. Wang Yiren and their new mobile phones have the ability to produce large-scale. The technical team is still working on G** mobile phone baseband chips, and it is close to the end. It is estimated that the finished mobile phones will be launched no later than this summer.

Several military personnel know that the United States and Japan and South Korea are promoting this standard network on a large scale. The domestic military has long introduced technology and set up networks experimentally, but there are lack of key technologies and have never been able to make breakthroughs. It is undoubtedly an unexpected surprise that Stardou Research Institute can develop independent technology mobile terminals. He tried out the new mobile phones in Wang Yiren and others, walked out of the secret room and made several calls across the country through the CDMA network established by the military. I personally felt that the call quality was clear and the interference was very small. I was quite satisfied with the quality of these mobile phones and also met the requirements of the military. Now the problem of handheld terminals has finally been solved. The CDMA network temporarily managed by China Telecom, which was trial-run in Jiudu, also performed normally, which further strengthened their new idea to the senior military leaders to join forces with local mobile communication departments to form a military-local dual-purpose CDMA network.

Military people are interested in mobile phone calls, while Wang Yiren and others are interested in the fact that there is no external antenna for this mobile phone. They asked Wu Haijun the mystery. Wu Haijun explained that this is actually the built-in antenna technology developed by a German company named Hannuojia last year. They originally planned to launch a CH9771 phone number this year, but this company had problems with the patent application for this technology and was in a lawsuit with another company in law. Xingdou Research Institute took the opportunity to purchase its patent at a low price, but instead completed the design of the built-in antenna mobile phone first.

Wang Yiren asked some concerns: "If the other party's company wins a patent lawsuit, wouldn't we still have to spend money to buy patents in vain?" Wu Haijun pointed to Yang Xing with a smile and said, "The other company is a shell company registered by the boss with a lawyer in a foreign country. Patents in the field of communications are very complicated. No company dares to say that it has fully mastered certain types of technology. When I was in Europe the previous year, I collected some patent records from relevant parties as he ordered. It just so happened that Hannuojia's technical patents overlap with some of them. We used this point to launch a legal battle and forced them to choose to sell patent rights in order to meet the challenge. I have never thought of using this method to get such patents. Although it is a little cunning, the boss's way of considering the problem is indeed not as good as we can."

After listening to it, Wang Yiren and the others looked at the figure who stared at the technician explaining the fiber optic communication system and was interested in operating the fiber optic repeater on the spot. They felt that Yang Xing, the person next to him, had a much deeper heart than the wretched and confused look they usually saw, but he always liked to act ordinary in front of everyone.

Kan Dongtian was also very interested in this fiber optic communication system. He asked Yang Xing: "This is what you worked hard to bring Kao to cooperate with the Municipal Glass Factory to develop. I heard that you are planning to invest in Julong Communications Group this time, so this fiber optic communications will make money?" Yang Xing complained that when did he go to Kao for great hardship? The early negotiations were all facilitated by Qingqi. In the end, he just exerted a "turtle-like aura", and Kao obediently fell into his palm.

However, it is not unreasonable that Kan Dongtian is so keen. Jiudu Glass Factory and Julong Communication are both profitable investors in Jiudu City. And unlike the subordinate units such as Dongfanghong Tractor Factory, they are directly affiliated enterprises in the city, Kan Dongtian is naturally more concerned.

It was not too late to develop optical fiber in China. In 1973, when the world's optical fiber communication was not yet practical, the Wuhan Institute of Posts and Telecommunications of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications began to study optical fiber communication. Since the Wuhan Institute of Posts and Telecommunications Science adopted correct technical routes such as quartz fiber, semiconductor lasers and coding standard communication machines, my country has avoided many detours in the development of optical fiber communication technology, and has also made my country less likely to have a high-tech gap compared with developed countries.

However, since my country's optical fiber research has been closed for a long time, foreign technology is basically impossible to learn from, and it is purely self-explored, and the standards adopted are not very consistent with international standards. Therefore, although there is a complete optical fiber communication industry in China, there are many obstacles in connecting with foreign optical fiber communication companies, and a large number of foreign technical equipment must be introduced every year.

After Yang Xing asked Kao to come out, he contacted his disciples who worked in many large fiber optic companies in Europe and the United States. With their relationship, he planned to let Nebula Electronics start a large fiber optic system manufacturer in Jiudu. As a quartz glass fiber manufacturer with fiber optic substrates, Julong Communications, as an optical switching equipment manufacturer, can invest in and provide technical support for Jiudu Optoelectronics Research Institute and other units. This fiber optic communication company is no problem to become the top two in the domestic industry.
