Chapter 3286 The Lively Hong Kong
Seeing Old Chen's appearance, Yang Xiaotao and Secretary Guo exchanged a glance, then both understood each other without saying a word.
However, I'll have to talk to Yang Youning about this documentary about the West-East Gas Pipeline later.
How can you do this job? How can you not keep your boss in mind?
I have to be on TV this year!
As Yang Xiaotao thought to himself, Old Chen's expression softened. "Not bad, not bad!"
"Your last Spring Festival performance live broadcast had a very good impact. The higher-ups are even considering whether to hold it once a year!"
Yang Xiaotao lowered his head and remained silent; hosting a party costs money.
Even the largest family business shouldn't be wasted like this.
Besides, since it's a requirement from higher-ups, then it's up to them to make the arrangements.
It's best if the Ninth Division doesn't draw attention to itself.
Sure enough, Old Chen saw through Yang Xiaotao's thoughts and tapped his finger on the table, saying, "I'll discuss it with my superiors later and finalize this matter."
"As for how to do it, your nine departments have held quite a few events. Please provide a set of regulations."
Yang Xiaotao felt relieved when he heard that they weren't directly assigned to the task, and then nodded and said, "Okay, we'll provide a copy of our experience from the past few years."
Old Chen nodded and continued looking at the television program materials.
"Hey, this legal education program is pretty good!"
Pointing to a program on the program list, Old Chen asked, "What are your thoughts?"
"Is it because of this incident?"
Yang Xiaotao shook his head, "Boss, we've had this idea for a long time!"
"This was just a coincidence!"
"However, this also serves as a reminder that some things cannot be expected to be understood by others on their own; we must constantly remind them of them!"
"The more people hear, the more they understand, and the more capable they become of distinguishing right from wrong."
"At the very least, let them know that there are consequences for their actions..."
As Yang Xiaotao spoke, Old Chen's eyes lit up.
"What do you think about broadcasting the instructions and precautions for using natural gas?"
"Uh…"
Yang Xiaotao didn't react for a moment, but seeing the smile on Old Chen's face, he immediately nodded and said, "Great, excellent."
"We could create a special feature that specifically explains how to prevent and solve these problems..."
Secretary Guo, who was standing next to him, finally came to his senses and took a deep breath when he saw the two of them chatting and laughing.
Sure enough, all leaders are the same – they all have a far-sighted vision!
After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Old Chen nodded in satisfaction, and then added, "Not only should it be reported on television programs, but it should also be promoted on the radio and in newspapers..."
"Our goal is to help people learn knowledge and understand the situation."
"Learn from the mistakes of others, so that you can follow their lead."
"Boss, you're absolutely right. I'll give the order to get it made into a program as soon as possible."
Yang Xiaotao looked enlightened, which made Secretary Guo turn her head away.
After leaving Mr. Chen's office, Yang Xiaotao took a car back to the Ninth Department.
Before I even entered the office building, Yang Youning appeared in front of me.
"So? What's Old Chen's attitude?"
In comparison, Yang Youning is more concerned about the affairs of the television station.
As Yang Xiaotao walked, he explained the situation, "Old Chen had no objections and even encouraged us to do this well."
"Of course, there are two things I need you to do."
Yang Youning's face lit up with excitement. "What is it? Tell me."
Yang Xiaotao quickened his pace and arrived at the office before he could finish speaking. After entering, he said, "The first thing is more urgent."
"Recently, many households have experienced dangerous accidents due to improper use of natural gas. Therefore, Mr. Chen wanted us to make a program explaining the correct way to use natural gas and the precautions to take."
"This needs to be done as soon as possible; we can't delay."
Yang Youning immediately understood Yang Xiaotao's meaning. If this matter was handled well, they would have an explanation to give to Old Chen, and Old Chen would have an explanation to give to his superiors.
"I immediately had people prepare materials and then publicized it in the form of a news report."
"Okay, the second thing."
Yang Xiaotao took the enamel mug that Liu Lixue handed him, took a sip of water, and then said, "The second thing is to make a documentary about the West-East Gas Pipeline project."
You understand, right?
Yang Xiaotao glanced at Yang Youning.
In an instant, Yang Youning understood what was meant.
This is something that will make a name for itself in history.
However, when he thought about the fact that their nine departments were involved, Yang Youning felt a surge of power within him.
He was involved in the project.
In any case, I have to give myself a chance to show my face.
"This task will be completed this year."
Yang Youning set a time limit for himself and then quickly left.
Watching Yang Youning get busy, Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath and pondered to himself.
The publicity department has been quite active lately.
Fortunately, Yang Youning has put all his talent points into publicity, and now it seems he's doing it quite well.
However, even a hero needs three helpers, so we'll need to find someone to manage the TV station's affairs from now on.
It would be best to have Old Chen arrange someone to come.
With that thought in mind, Yang Xiaotao sat down in front of the computer again and skillfully turned on the power switch. This time, the boot speed of the Jiaoyang 75 was significantly faster than that of the Chenxi No. 1, and the interface opened in just one minute.
Then, they continued writing the operating system.
Time flies, and Children's Day arrives as scheduled.
This also means that the release of the Sun75 is approaching.
During this period, Yang Xiaotao also gained some understanding of international affairs.
First, the United States began mass production of Freedom 1, and the supporting facilities, such as printers, were fully adapted.
Furthermore, local governments have begun to introduce policies to prioritize the use of Freedom No. 1, and some factories and shopping malls have also started using Freedom No. 1.
Moreover, during this period, the Dawn One and Freedom One could be seen standing side by side in many shopping malls and factories.
Perhaps because their performance is similar, there has been no one-sided trend in sales.
Even so, the sales of Dawn 1 were still affected.
Then there's the Japanese islands.
This is the largest market for Dawn 1 outside of the United States.
Thanks to the promotion of pagers and printers, Japan purchased a large number of Dawn 1 pagers.
Of course, the emergence of Dawn 1 also promoted the economic recovery of Japan, which is much better than the years of the epidemic.
However, after the United States handed over the design blueprints for Dawn One to Japan, the other side began its 'path to self-reliance'.
The JP50, developed through research, has already begun to be deployed, and in some areas it has started to replace the Dawn-1 paging station.
Foreign trade officials predict that the computer market in Japan will experience a surge in demand starting in June. It is understood that they have already prepared a large number of computers for a complete upgrade.
However, Yang Xiaotao was not worried about the situation on the Japanese islands.
Because the other party relies entirely on the United States for the raw materials used in computer production, especially high-purity silicon.
It can be said that once the United States cuts off the supply of raw materials, the Japanese islanders will be left with nothing but helpless stares at their machines.
Aside from the United States and Japan, the rest are places like France and Britain.
Among them, Britain's computer development was the most rapid.
As for France, their experts, after evaluation, found that developing either Dawn 1 or Freedom 1 themselves would consume a lot of financial resources.
Even if you spend money to buy the design drawings, without sufficient material support, you need to develop the 'basic' industries to make it.
These investments will involve a massive amount of resources.
Therefore, in their minds, it would be better to explore computer software development and application areas than to focus solely on computer manufacturing.
To this, Yang Xiaotao could only say, "As expected of romantic France."
Finally, there's the league.
I heard some news from Li Shengli.
It seems the other side ran into some trouble while researching Dawn One, and the Char One they ended up with was a complete joke.
I wouldn't say it should have the same performance as Dawn 1, but at the very least it shouldn't be too much different.
As a result, the computer was boycotted in China less than a month after it was produced and launched, and in the end, the computer had to be scrapped and remade.
It can be said that within the alliance region, the profits of Dawn One are the least affected.
Well, that's the basic situation internationally.
Something seems to be missing.
Oh, right, it's from India.
Well, their Nirvana computer is still just a design drawing, and nobody knows when it will be built.
In summary, according to the information Li Rong relayed, sales of Chenxi-1 began to decline in March, reaching 80% of February's sales, meaning a decrease of 20%.
It dropped by 30% in April, and now it's down by half.
No wonder Li Rong felt sorry for her.
Last month, I watched as piles of money were being handed to me, but what about now?
With my pockets completely empty, how could I not be anxious?
Fortunately, the Jiaoyang 75 was successfully developed, which gave Li Rong hope of making a profit.
In Yang Xiaotao's office.
"Aunt Rong, the goods have been shipped. Don't worry, the warehouse is full of computers."
"Yes, as long as you can secure the order, we will ship it immediately without any delays."
"price?"
"You should decide that yourself. We don't know much about the situation abroad."
"We won't go to Hong Kong."
"A gaming competition? Forget it, we won't participate this year."
"Okay, I'll contact you again later."
Yang Xiaotao quickly hung up the phone and then looked at Old Chen who walked in.
"What brings you here, sir?"
Old Chen walked over and sat down. "Isn't today the day the Jiaoyang 75 is launched? I came to take a look."
"Are you calling Li Rong?"
Yang Xiaotao walked over and sat down. "Yes, they've already made all the arrangements there. Everything is going smoothly in Hong Kong."
"However, there may be some differences in price."
"price?"
Old Chen frowned. "This first shot has to be a success. Don't let the price affect the plan."
Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "Don't worry, Aunt Rong's business acumen is unmatched by most people."
Old Chen laughed along, "Yes, this woman is quite talented at bargaining."
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaotao could only smile and then began to talk about the computer production situation.
Meanwhile, in Hong Kong, far to the south, things were in an uproar.
Hong Kong.
Since the advent of Dawn One, pagers and printers have immediately propelled Hong Kong's economic development onto a fast track.
Thanks to the convenience brought by technology, Hong Kong's economy has grown year after year and it has now become a world-renowned economic city.
Later, computers such as Freedom One and JP50 were introduced to Hong Kong, further amplifying this financial trend.
Inside the Huimin Store, Xiaoqi followed behind Li Ge and the others, patrolling the second floor of the store.
At the counter, stylish and well-dressed elites were waving their arms and shouting as they handed out bills.
What they were buying was the Sunplus 75 computer displayed behind the counter.
This thing had been advertised for a long time before it entered Hong Kong.
Thanks to the advance publicity from Li Rong, Li San, and others, coupled with the fact that the Jiaoyang 75 is an upgraded version of the Chenxi No. 1, and the game installed on the computer, which is said to be even better than the Chenxi No. 1.
With all sorts of promotional slogans, people in Hong Kong had high expectations for this computer.
Merchants and factories that had benefited from the Dawn One satellite were among the first to come and make purchases.
Of course, those buying here are just retail investors; the real big players are all choosing to wait and see.
After all, even if we lose Dawn 1, we still have Freedom 1, and computers from Japan and Britain.
Therefore, they will not easily take action without receiving definite information.
"Brother Li, where's Third Brother?"
Wei Ge ran in from the crowd and unconsciously swallowed as he looked at the frenzied people.
"I don't know, it should be at the dock."
Li Ge shook his head, then asked, "What's wrong?"
Wei Ge smiled wryly, "The shops in Central are sold out. I came back to see if there are any left."
"Damn it, I thought not many people could afford such an expensive computer, but now it seems there are a lot of rich people here."
Li Ge listened as he watched the sales staff carrying computers out, the bank staff counting banknotes, and the armed security guards standing by.
He then said with a wry smile, "We'll be out of stock soon too."
"You go back first, I'll call my third brother and urge him to hurry up."
Wei shook his head helplessly, "This stuff is good, but the production is far too small."
To everyone's surprise, Brother Li waved his hand and said, "What do you know? It's not that our hometown doesn't produce them, it's that transportation here is being cut off. Otherwise, everyone would have one by now."
Wei opened his mouth, and finally uttered, "Those damn bastards, we'll deal with them sooner or later."
"Alright, you go back first. I still have a hundred units in stock. Take fifty of them back to deal with the situation for now, and we'll talk about it when Third Brother comes back."
"Okay, I'll be going now."
With that, Wei Ge ran off quickly, while Li Ge shook his head helplessly, "I'm going to call Third Brother!"
