Chapter 240 Return
"Mr. Qingxi, this is what I should do." Faced with the other party's praise, An Rusong bowed quickly and humbly and said, "I am just fulfilling the obligations of a citizen of the Republic of Korea."
< br>
Hearing what he said, several people present laughed. Li Minbo put his glasses back on and said, "There are no outsiders here, so you don't need to be so reserved when speaking."
Immediately afterwards, he said: "Come on, you sit down first, I will see Rihai off, and Mr. Yongtang will go out first."
For Li Minbo, Quan Kaka and Noh Taiyu are naturally his political allies, and they are also the group of people who firmly support him in the Grand National Party. However, political allies are only political allies after all, and they are not his own people in the true sense. , Therefore, many things still have to be avoided.
However, he asked An Rusong to take a seat, but An Rusong couldn't really sit down like that. He just stepped aside and quietly waited for Li Minbo to send the two former presidents out.
After just three or four minutes, Li Minbo sent Quan and Lu out of the house and returned to the living room. At this moment, An Rusong clearly saw a tired expression on his face, although the expression only flashed past.
"Sit down, sit down," he walked back to the sofa before, first pressed his palms towards An Rusong and motioned him to sit down, then straightened the front of his suit, slowly bent down and sat down, and said, "Actually, I wanted to meet you Rusong two days ago. It's just that there are too many trivial matters recently, and all the things that need to be handed over and handled are piled up. I really can't spare the time, so this meeting has been postponed. Drag it to now.”
"Mr. Qingxi, you should pay more attention to rest, after all." An Rusong lost no time in using his flattery technique.
Unfortunately, before he could finish speaking, the other party had directly interrupted him and said: "Don't talk about this. Rusong, I have been paying attention to your NGN software in the past period of time, especially in the volunteers. During the operation, I gained a detailed understanding of it from many aspects.”
As he spoke, he made a gesture to Bai Jinjun who was standing aside. The latter turned and left and went to a room in Nei Jin. When he walked out a moment later, he already had an extra document in his hand.
Li Minbo was not in a hurry. He waited for Bai Jinjun to hand the document into his hand, and then he looked through it roughly and said, "The feedback I got is that although your NGN company has only been established for a few years, Months, the time for NGN software to go online is also so short, but The development speed of the entire company and the number of registered users of the software are growing very rapidly. For now, NGN seems to have become one of the best Internet products in the country, if not the best. "
The documents he held in his hand were all related data about NGN software. Looking at the thick stack, it was enough to show that he indeed paid high attention to NGN software.
"Nowadays, the Internet economy and information technology are being talked about everywhere." Putting the documents in his hands aside, Li Minbo seemed to have tired eyes. He took off his glasses again and placed his hands between his eyes. He pinched his position and then continued, "But, like me People of this pre-war generation can no longer keep up with this trend, so their understanding of this aspect is limited. But the reality is that for the current national economy, this field is a top priority, so it is relevant. There is still work to be done.”
At this point, he stopped, glanced at Bai Jinjun and said, "Taixi also made suggestions to me before. The Cultural Industry Promotion Institute should add support policies related to information technology, or software. I We have also discussed with experts in related fields. The consensus among the experts is that the development of the information technology field will in the next period of time , may become an important engine of economic growth. Although you are not an expert or researcher in the relevant field, you are a practitioner in this field. Compared with those majors who only engage in academic research, your knowledge is obviously It is more intuitive, more sensitive and accurate, so I would like to hear your opinions in this regard.”
"Oh," An Rusong hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Qingxi, the topic you mentioned is very broad. Where should I start?"
"Just tell me your opinion, for example, why you decided to develop this NGN software in the first place," Li Minbo put on his glasses for the second time and said, "For example, what are your future plans for the NGN company."< br>
An Rusong thought for a while and said: "That's right, Mr. Qingxi, the reason why I decided to make NGN software was mainly inspired by similar instant messaging software including MSN, ICQ, and OICQ. My idea at the time was actually very simple. I just wanted to make an instant messaging software suitable for Koreans and mainly in Korean. ”
"Is it that simple?" Bai Jinjun interjected and asked.
"It's that simple," An Rusong nodded and said, "However, this is only the beginning. As the NGN software was actually built, put into operation, and achieved certain results, well, it was mainly because of having a certain amount of experience. After the number of registered users, some new ideas and designs were slowly formed and started to be implemented intentionally, such as the now popular farm game, and the photo wall application.”
After a pause, he added: "This is actually not surprising. After all, all inspiration comes from practice." "In this regard, there is actually no good experience to introduce. NGN Company has been able to get to where it is today." , is actually pieced together by many accidents,” An Rusong spread his hands and said, “Compared to NGN Company’s past, I would rather talk about its future.”
Li Minbo seemed to be a good listener. He looked at An Rusong with a smile and a hint of encouragement in his eyes.
"In my vision, the future NGN company will never be limited to operating an instant messaging software. It will be built into a company that integrates computer technology development, data processing, basic software services, application software services, Internet cultural activities, A comprehensive Internet technology enterprise with multi-field businesses such as Internet information services,” An Rusong said, “Of course, these are the long-term goals of NGN Company.”
"Haha, young people's aspirations are big enough and ambitious," Li Minbo turned to Bai Jinjun and smiled.
"Then, let's talk about your short-term goals first instead of your mid-term goals," he turned back and smiled at An Rusong.
"As for the short-term goals, they are relatively simple," An Rusong said. "The first thing is to burn money. We need to consume the US$62.5 million in the first round of financing. I plan to build a new NGN The company's headquarters will build a medium-sized data center. At the same time, it will establish several overseas data centers outside of South Korea, including Singapore, Japan, Frog Island and other places, and through further promotion, the number of registered users of NGN software will increase. , pushed to more than 200 million.”
"Oh?" Perhaps attracted by the number 200 million, Li Minbo's little eyes lit up and asked, "How long will it take to achieve this short-term goal?"
"The company's new headquarters is already in the process of selecting a location, and related equipment for the data center is also being purchased," An Rusong said. "As long as the funds are in place, these tasks are not difficult. The main ones are the establishment of overseas data centers and new registered users. Both of these tasks are troublesome. After all, these businesses need to be promoted overseas, and NGN Company has only been established for a short time, lacks foundation, and lacks experience in dealing with foreign governments.”
"The problems you mentioned should not become obstacles to the development of NGN Company," Li Minbo said. "Information technology companies like NGN Company should receive support from the Software Promotion Institute, the Digital Culture Industry Group and the Information Promotion Agency. Fund support and assistance ”
He said and turned to look at Bai Jinjun behind him.

Bai Jinjun understood what he meant and immediately explained the situation of these departments to An Rusong.
The so-called Software Promotion Agency and Digital Culture Industry Group are actually affiliated organizations of the Cultural Industry Promotion Agency. The purpose of the Cultural Industry Promotion Agency was to make South Korea's cultural industry bigger and stronger and make it an important part of the Korean economy. new pillar of development.
Just now Li Minbo mentioned a person named "Tai Xi". This person is actually one of Li Minbo's staff. His full name is Ren Taixi. This person is an expert in the financial field. At the same time, he is also a specialist in policy analysis within the party of a large country. Not long ago, he had just made a recommendation to Li Minbo, recommending a person named Liu Incun to be the director of the Cultural Industry Promotion Institute.
As for the Information Technology Promotion Fund, it is a special fund at the government level, established specifically to support the development of a certain industry. Although this informationization promotion fund has not been established for a long time and its scale is not large, it still allocates more than 50 billion won every year. These allocations are used to subsidize certain informationization-related enterprises.
Bai Jinjun told An Rusong that the Cultural Industry Promotion Institute has established branches in Tokyo, Singapore, China and other countries and regions to provide services specifically for Korean-related export companies. Therefore, if NGN Company needs to establish branches overseas, If it is a data center, you can apply for help from the Cultural Industry Promotion Agency, or even apply for a special subsidy from the Information Technology Promotion Fund.
Although the amount of this subsidy will not be too much, it is still a sum of money. The most important thing is that the assistance of the Cultural Industry Promotion Agency is still very powerful. With the assistance it provides at the official level, NGN Company will If you want to establish branches and data centers overseas, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
