Chapter 166 Teaching by Words and Deeds
But having said that, An Rusong is not absolutely necessary for this cheap piece of land. After all, compared to the land in Banqiao, the land in Enping District will be in the next few years. It will also experience a process of skyrocketing, and its magnitude of increase is no less than that of Banqiao area.
Of course, the most important thing is that investment itself has a political nature. The "Silicon Valley" developed in the Bangyo area will be created during the period when Mrs. Park takes office in the future. The reason why conglomerates such as Samsung and LG invest there is to support Mrs. Park.
And An Rusong is currently wearing the political label of Councilor Kong and his faction. When making investments, he should naturally be more inclined to this side.
Just like now, Councilman Kong does not want to buy his NGN company shares at a low price. He just wants him to build the data center in Enping District. Can he say no? That's not a smart choice.
After all, for An Rusong, this data center is going to be built in Seoul anyway, so there is no fundamental difference whether it is placed in Banqiao area or Enping District.
However, even so, An Rusong did not agree readily. He hesitated for a moment with an embarrassed look on his face, and said: "Mr. Kong, Director Nan, this data center to be built is of great significance to the entire The future development of NGN is very important. It can be said to be the heart of the entire company."
"Well," Councilor Kong nodded with a smile on his face, as if he didn't care about An Rusong. As if he would refuse.
“So, DFJ and Apple have certain requirements for where to put it,” An Rusong continued. “The main reason is that the data center uses water and electricity. The demand in the field is relatively high. If the conditions in Enping District cannot be met, I'm afraid those Americans"
What will happen to those Americans? An Rusong did not say, but the meaning is obvious.
"This is indeed very important," Councilor Kong looked at Nan Xuyu and pointed with his right hand. "You will contact Shanyong later and tell him the specific conditions of Rusong. He must be clear. If If the conditions in Enping District are not met, even if there is no problem here in Rusong, those Americans may not go to Enping. "
Nan Xuyu nodded hurriedly and said: "I will remind him."
After a pause, he added: "However, the conditions in Enping District should be good. There will definitely be no problems in terms of water and electricity."
Congressman Kong nodded and turned his attention to An Rusong.
"Then there is no problem," An Rusong said with a smile, "As long as there are no problems with the corresponding construction conditions, then where to place this data center? Should we build a medium-sized one or only invest in a small one?" ”
An expression of satisfaction appeared on Councilor Kong's face. After thinking about it, he said: "I have been paying attention to your NGN software recently. I found a new startup pop-up window that appeared in the software, as well as the message board in the personal space, and even that The most popular photo walls seem to have the attributes of news media.”
“It does have certain attributes of news media,” An Rusong nodded and said, “Well, it’s in the company’s development plan. , NGN will also launch a portal-like property in the future Something with stronger news media properties.”
“In that case, you have to pay more attention to legal compliance issues,” Councilor Kong said first, and then turned to look at Nan. Xu Yu said, "Xu Yu, later You introduced Rusong and Xiaozai to each other."
After speaking, he turned to look at An Rusong and asked, "Do you know Jin Xiaozai?"
An Rusong shook his head. Let alone knowing him, he has never even heard of this name.
"Hyo-jae is a journalist by training. He previously served as the deputy director of the editorial department of Chosun Ilbo," said Representative Kong. "Currently, he is Minbo's special media assistant, responsible for public opinion guidance and publicity."
An Rusong remembered the name, Kim Hyo-jae. If nothing else happens, after Lee Min-bo wins the election as the new president, this person will be the main figure in charge of public opinion work at the government level of the Republic of Korea.
“You are also aware of a series of things that have happened recently,” Congressman Kong continued, “these are the rumors that are spreading wildly on the Internet. Behind them are the manipulations of the progressive guys. Being good at publicity and agitation and public opinion guidance is the most direct reason for the rapid expansion of the progressive faction in recent years. Considering this, Minbo has put forward suggestions within the party to increase public opinion guidance, and some specific measures will be taken. After he became president "
"One of the key points is the review and regulation of online public opinion," Councilor Kong glanced at An Rusong and said in a serious tone, "If nothing else happens, the public will Bo Hui proposed to establish a five-member 'Broadcasting and Communications Committee' to be responsible for work in this area." An Rusong understood. He thought for a while and asked: "So, Mr. Kong, what will happen to these five committee members. What happened? ”
Don't think that if South Korea keeps saying that it is a democratic country, it is really completely democratic and has no control at all. That is simply impossible. Even for online public opinion, Cheong Wa Dae has a special control mechanism. Aren't the five laws and regulations that have been promulgated since the 1990s specifically aimed at Internet speech?
As for the "Broadcasting and Communications Commission" that Representative Kong mentioned, it should be the country's further control over Internet speech. It is equivalent to a review committee. Of course, this review committee will not review a specific speech. , netizens who post, what it examines is the carrier that carries these speeches and posts, that is, the website.
As mentioned just now, although the NGN software developed by An Rusong is an instant messaging software, it also involves some content of online public opinion, such as pop-up windows, such as personal Space message boards, etc., these are all places where news can be posted and spread, and they will naturally be subject to scrutiny by the Broadcasting and Communications Commission in the future.
This review, a little more lenient and a little stricter, is of a completely different nature for a network company. If NGN company is focused on by the "Broadcasting and Communications Commission" in the future, An Rusong will definitely Very uncomfortable.
So, when Councilor Kong proposes this "Broadcasting and Communications Commission" and proposes Kim Hyo-jae, he is actually trying to manipulate An Rusong - look, even though your NGN is getting bigger and bigger, it is still Investment from the United States has been introduced, but there is still something we can do to you.
An Rusong understood this very well, and he also lowered his stance low enough. The reason why he asked how these five committee members came into being was naturally to further express his political stance.
It is still unknown whether Lee Min-bo can win the election as president, but even if he wins the election in the future and the proposal to establish the "Broadcasting and Communications Commission" is passed by Congress, it is impossible for five members to Appointed entirely by himself.
According to convention, for this kind of committee with an odd number of members, one member will generally be appointed by the president, while the other members will be appointed by congressional negotiation groups that support the president and congressional negotiation groups with other positions. point.
“The specific method of production is not yet certain at present,” Councilman Kong said with a smile, “But one thing is certain, Kim Hyo-jae will definitely be one of them.”
“Then I have to interact more with Mr. Jin," An Rusong said with a smile.
"It's not just Hyo-jae," the smile on Representative Kong's face froze, and he then said, "In the next few days, people from the National Intelligence Service will also contact you. Your data center needs their people. , Gao Yonggou may be responsible for presiding over this matter."
"Hasn't Dean Gao been dismissed?" An Rusong asked in surprise.
Gao Yonggou is the former director of the National Intelligence Service and a close confidant of President Roh. This guy made a big mistake in 2003 and lost his position as director of the National Intelligence Service.
As South Korea's highest-level intelligence agency, in addition to a director and four deputy directors, the National Intelligence Service also has dozens of core figures responsible for the work of various departments. According to South Korea's relevant confidentiality regulations, in the entire NIS leadership system, except for the identities of the dean and four deputy chiefs, the identities of the core leaders of all the remaining 22 departments cannot be disclosed to the outside world.
As a result, in 2003, on a whim, President Roh went to inspect the National Intelligence Service, summoned all the core leadership including Director Gao Yonggou, and took a photo . Later, the photo was published in the newspaper.
As a result, the Republic of Korea itself exposed the entire core leadership of the National Intelligence Service without having to use intelligence personnel from other countries to investigate. Just like that, overnight, the core leadership of the National Intelligence Service was wiped out and became a joke among intelligence agencies around the world.
In the end, when the investigation was launched, the blame was first attributed to the photographer who took the photo. Cheong Wa Dae dealt with a photographer in an attempt to fool the incident. But it is obvious that the opposition party cannot agree. In the end, after some entanglement, Gao Yonggou, who was the director of the National Intelligence Service, took the blame and resigned sadly, and was replaced by the current director Jin Wanfu.
"Dismissal is not expulsion, it is just for showing off to others," Councilor Kong said with a sneer.
“That guy Gao Yonggou is just a dog of the progressives,” Councilor Kong said after a moment of silence, “He might cause trouble for you on certain things. But you don’t have to Worry, just cooperate with his work and don't let him If you find something wrong, he should get out in two months anyway."
An Rusong didn't say anything. He heard that as long as Li Minbo takes office as president, the National Intelligence Service will definitely be there. There will be a turmoil, but we don't know how big this turmoil will be.
