Volume Seven, Chapter 113, Dare to Be the First in the World (4)
"Well, I know your concerns." Mao Xiangdong nodded, "The industry pioneers in the future will be determined by the city of Hi-tech Zone. It is different from the positioning of the Economic and Tech Zone. The Economic and Tech Zone is the main force, and the High-tech Zone should be a weather vane for the industry to lead according to the development of the times. Therefore, the Internet industry should be the most suitable development direction for it at present. Of course, industries such as microelectronics, chip design, and biomedicine are also the focus of high-tech zones paying attention to and supporting development, but in this regard, we do not have much advantage compared with other provinces and cities, so the Internet is the top priority."
Sha Zhengyang agrees with Mao Xiangdong's view. Mao Xiangdong is not an entrepreneur or a technical expert. He is a government official. He is responsible for the future development of the entire Han city. Even if the Internet industry is booming, he will also support it when it comes to the development of other industries. Of course, it is safe to be able to distinguish the importance.
"Well, Secretary Mao, it seems that you have big ideas on the development of the high-tech zone." Sha Zhengyang knew that Mao Xiangdong was in charge of the Han capital and was definitely unwilling to be silent. The high-tech zone may be one of its dominant fists. The reason why the Internet industry is so optimistic about is probably in line with the development trend of the high-tech zone.
"As an official, you must always benefit the people. How to understand the word "benefit"? I think that in this era, building up the economy and making the GDP of Han City and the annual growth rate of the people at a certain high level is the simplest and most objective embodiment." Mao Xiangdong paused for a moment, "The traditional industries of Han City must make a difference, but in the future, it is more likely to drive the overall economic development, and the high-tech industries will lead the development trend. Therefore, our municipal party committee and government must have a high-level view and make plans early."
"The future of the Internet industry is definitely a big trend, and its coverage involves a very wide range. I'll take some time to go to your high-tech zone to take a look." Sha Zhengyang is still optimistic about the development of the Heroes High-tech Zone, especially with Mao Xiangdong's support. And Ji Guoli seems to have some vision. Combining the two, it may really make a name for the Handu High-tech Zone.
"That's good. I told Ji Guoli to let him contact you as soon as possible. Secretary of the Party Working Committee of the High-tech Zone, I will temporarily let Comrade Liu Yinbo, the executive vice mayor, serve as the same position, but his work is very heavy, so Ji Guoli is still in charge of the main work. I think the group of people under him are very energetic. If you go and see him, you will also help our High-tech Zone grow better." Mao Xiangdong was very happy.
"Secretary Mao, you are a bit harsh. I can go and see it. I dare not say the guidance. It is best to discuss and communicate with each other." Sha Zhengyang was in a good mood. He really hoped to see that the future Han Dynasty could rank among the most competitive metropolis in China. Even if he couldn't catch up with Yanjing and Shanghai, it should at least be comparable to Shenzhen and Guangzhou.
************
Everything he saw from Handu made Sha Zhengyang excited because he finally felt that his efforts began to change the thoughts of leaders in the system, which was even more exciting than him attracting an investment or starting a company.
The changes in ideological and ideological concepts of a promising leading cadre have a huge impact on the development and changes of a place. Taking Mao Xiangdong as an example, he accepted his own views and believed that the Internet industry has a broad prospect, and Han City can be a pioneer in this regard, so he can use his influence to promote the entire environment in a direction suitable for the development of the Internet industry.
For example, promoting adsl broadband to be the first to try in Han City, the next step may also promote popular commercial use on a large scale. This is one year faster than in Shanghai and Shenzhen in their previous lives. It is hard to say what this step will bring, but Sha Zhengyang also plans to make a difference.
For example, recommend it to relevant people in the Internet industry through various channels and encourage them to start a business in Handu.
Sina and Sohu have no choice, but what about Alibaba and Tencent in the future? Well, in this era, there are more emerging players working hard, such as 8848, which has not yet appeared, like Lianzhong, who is too short to be able to help but still supports it, like Tencent, which has begun to be hidden, but they themselves do not realize it, and Baidu Li, who is hesitating to return to China to start a business,...
In short, countless dream chasers who may make their debut in the future or are silent in the future are now struggling in the crests and troughs of the Internet wave. They still have great uncertainty about their future pie, because this is the norm of things.
If a city with not too bad conditions in all aspects can welcome them to settle down and start a business with an extremely friendly and enthusiastic heart, and is even willing to provide free places and accommodation, provide financial subsidies for them to rent broadband networks, and even coordinate venture capital and angel investors to support them, Sha Zhengyang probably has few people who can resist such a government attitude.
Sha Zhengyang didn't expect Ji Guoli to come so quickly. The next day, he received a call from Ji Guoli as soon as he arrived at the office, asking him whether it was convenient, and then said that he would come to visit him.
Of course, Sha Zhengyang agreed to the other party's request very readily. To be honest, he was also interested in such a person who could see the future direction of the Internet.
Ji Guoli brought a young man to the door. He said that the young man was actually only one or two years younger than Sha Zhengyang. He was also Ji Guoli's junior brother, graduated from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, and he was in the same class as Ding Lei, and he was also familiar with Xiahouzi. Of course, this was all known later.
Ji Guoli has a square face with a national character, strong eyebrows, and a very military temperament. But in fact, he has never been a soldier, but his personality is a bit of a military style, speaks neatly, acts decisively, and is very passionate.
The young man who followed him was Guo Wei. He had a very ordinary name and looked very ordinary. Except for his eyes, he was a little bit awesome, and he worked in Handu Telecom.
This time, Handu Hi-Tech Zone is going to build a so-called "Internet Home" industrial base, which is a cooperation between Handu Hi-Tech Zone and Handu Telecom. Although Handu Hi-Tech Zone wants to make some achievements, for Handu Telecom, this is also a good opportunity to establish good relations with local governments and shape the Handu Telecom brand. Although now, departments like telecommunications do not have much urgency to shape brands, and they will only truly feel the pressure from competitors after they have separated from Mobile.
The topic of the conversation was soon opened, and Ji Guoli had long wanted to come to visit him, because the Hi-Tech Zone took Internet-related industries as a key pillar industry for the next five to ten years to develop and cultivate it. It is said that the reason why Secretary Mao determined this opinion was largely influenced by the youngest deputy department-level cadre in the province and the most famous deputy department-level cadre.
It was incredible to be the deputy director of the Provincial Development and Planning Commission under 30 years old. Ji Guoli thought that he was a real-time department-level cadre at the age of 34, and was promoted to a real-time deputy department at the age of 38. Unexpectedly, a character that was much better than him appeared, which made him curious. It was this person who inspired Secretary Mao to determine the Internet industry as the top priority of the high-tech zone.
Before, Ji Guoli always thought that his performance had won Mao Xiangdong's recognition. Later, he realized that Mao Xiangdong was almost "following the map". Now, he is more familiar with the work of high-tech industries and then found himself, a cadre with a certain understanding of the Internet industry, and eventually made himself the director of the High-tech Zone Management Committee. This official hat is indeed a bit unusual.
"Director Sha, yesterday Secretary Mao called me to the office and briefly talked about some ideas about our Science and Technology Innovation Building. I didn't expect you to think more profoundly and meticulously than us. I always thought that I could understand this work best. Now it seems that you are the real expert veteran."
Ji Guoli's words were very cheerful and bright, and Sha Zhengyang also liked to deal with such people, going straightforward, talking about things and key points directly, exchanging opinions, exchanging ideas, bridging differences, seeking common ground while reserving differences, it's that simple.
"Director Ji, in fact, there is no expert veteran. Everyone puts their hearts on their own and thinks from the perspective of others. Now the Internet industry has just begun to emerge in our country. Everyone is still in a state of ignorance about what they can do with the Internet in the future. Sina is engaged in news information to win click traffic, while Sohu is selling advertisements. What about? Some people are engaged in online chess and cards, yes, chess and card games, and some are ready to sell things online. Well, it seems that someone is already doing this kind of e-commerce website, but how to sell, how to pay for the goods, how much time it takes, it is hard to say now,..."
Sha Zhengyang actually likes to talk about this kind of content with industry insiders because he feels that it can evoke many memories of his own, and unintentional touches can often inspire many memories he has forgotten before, so he needs this kind of dialogue, the more intense it is, the better.
Ji Guoli has been serving as the director of the Management Committee of the High-tech Zone and has always served as deputy director of the Municipal Science and Technology Commission. No matter how you look at it, it is a free job, but Ji Guoli has done a lot of work. He is a graduate of electronics and has always been very interested in high-tech. Therefore, when he was in the Science and Technology Commission, he also traveled around on business trips. He is the busiest person in the semi-unpopular department of the Science and Technology Commission. It is precisely this factor that has made him meet many people and many friends.
