Chapter 1386 Yellow Pages Project
After getting Li Guangnan’s attitude, Zhou Zhi followed up and visited the ministry.
As someone who has just won the special prize for technological progress, it is now much harder to walk through the door.
It should be said that the new leadership has a clear understanding of the current industrial ecology, the difficulties and internal and external conflicts it faces, as well as the mess of things Zhou Zhi and Lao Hu are doing, and their relationship with each other.
After Zhou Zhi reported his idea of bringing Li Guangnan to Shanghai for development, Zhou Zhi felt that he was relieved when he saw his leader?
However, the leader did not let up. He only said that he needed to continue to understand the opinions of various parties on this matter, and then mentioned Zhou Zhi's most important task now, asking him not to be distracted by other trivial matters.
Zhou Zhi immediately understood that the company did have a big thing to do now, and said: "Minister Liu, you already know that we have decided to launch the Hanwen Domain Name Yellow Pages Project?"
"What plan?" Minister Liu surprised Zhou Zhi: "What new idea is this of yours?"
It turned out that this person didn't know it yet, so Zhou Zhi had to patiently explain: "Now Hanwenku has basically established its status as the only mainstream Chinese character input method in the world, and according to the latest reports, our country has also become an officially internationally recognized 'Internet country.'"
"For some people in our country. For time-honored brands, we should step up our efforts to apply for international domain names to guard against being registered by others, including domain names with Chinese characters and English domain names. ”
This is another huge difference from the previous life, and this difference was also brought about by Zhou Zhi, so Zhou Zhi is quite proud.
In the last life, due to the inconsistency and lack of widespread dissemination of Chinese fonts, during the most intense period of disputes over Internet domain name registration, there was no such thing as Chinese domain names, because Chinese did not exist in major mainstream The operating system has not been added to the default domain name rules of the World Wide Web Organization.
This resulted in major Chinese companies registering domain names later, and most of them could only register brand domain names through Pinyin.
For example, Luzhou Laojiao, basically
Another important reason for using letters is that the Chinese codes used in different regions are different. If you register a domain name with a Chinese code in one region, it will look garbled in other regions and you will not be able to input it. , others still cannot access your registered address. Only using alphabetical domain names does this problem not exist.
This is of course something Zhou Zhi doesn’t want to see happen, so before the first phase of the Han font library was launched, he had already connected with Microsoft through the Unicode organization and bundled the Chinese Unicode font library into the Windows system.
After that, I used this result to try to compete with Apple. Coupled with UNIX, which is already open source, basically all the mainstream operating systems in the world are equipped with Hanwen library.
Now it has finally come true. The globally unified Chinese code has emerged in this world. It has become natural for a unified Chinese domain name to appear in the international domain name registration rules.
"Xiao Zhouqi's reminder is very timely!" Minister Liu nodded: "The Internet has only been connected to a 64K line now. It is an emerging thing. Even the international rules are not complete yet. If we don't take precautions, Be first in the future If someone else grabs the registration and wants to come back, it will be troublesome."
"The most troublesome thing is not here." Zhou Zhi said with a bitter smile: "The most troublesome thing is that domestic companies have no awareness of this matter. ”
"We have called many manufacturers to remind them, and even the Clover Company has set up a team to take charge of this matter." Zhou Zhi said that he was very happy: "It turned out that the shaved guy had a hot head, and the other party wanted to Either treat us as liars, or say that we have no overseas business and don't need it at all." "How about issuing a document in the name of the ministry?" Minister Liu thought for a while: "But we really don't care about the business. It's not easy to intervene. If several ministries and commissions hold separate meetings to discuss this, wouldn't it be a big deal? It would be very troublesome to coordinate..."
At this point Zhou Zhi basically understands it. Indeed, the attitude of the Ministry is that whether to register a domain name or not is only an act decided by the enterprise. If it is changed to compulsory, it would seem so inappropriate in today's world where we are calling for loosening the responsibilities of enterprises and reducing administrative intervention.
Especially when this ministry is still an electronics department that has nothing to do with business operations, it is even more inappropriate.
Fortunately, Zhou Zhi has already responded: “It’s really hard to over-intervene. If I remind you, others may not listen. Therefore, my idea is to set up a yellow pages management unit to manage the more valuable brands in our country. Brand domain names are compiled into a network yellow pages and managed.”
"If the ministry is not willing to participate too much, our company can register all these domain names first, and it will not cost too much." Zhou Zhi said: "When these companies need to use these domain names in the future, they can come to us. If you want to go back, you just need to return the management fees we have paid over the years."
"Well, it's better to do this." Minister Liu nodded: "Since it's not a big deal, the ministry will do it. I won’t participate for now. I’ll keep my status and be your referee in the future. Better. I know about it, but that’s not the big thing I’m talking about.”
“Huh?”
“This time, both Samsung and Sony are involved. Very enthusiastic. The representatives sent out to invite you to visit are all I’m already waiting in Shanghai.”
“Director Hu meant that this matter couldn’t be done without you, so he added you to the list of members of the delegation. I thought he had already told you. You came to the ministry for this matter!”
"I really don't know about this." Zhou Zhi thought about it and said, "I only know that he has been negotiating with several companies for more than a month. It seems that things are already coming to an end?"
"Yes. , Samsung and Sony are both very active. Samsung agreed to invest in a storage granule together with Huahong in Zhangjiang. Manufacturing plant, which itself is its own needs, in order to compete with several companies in the island country for the world market share of storage components. "
"Sony's attitude is even more anxious and requires immediate cooperation on the MPEG-2 protocol. negotiations, Xiao Zhou, have you got a handle on them? Weakness? Why do the emotions they represent look a little wrong?”
Speaking of this, Zhou Zhi felt secretly happy: “Because we launched the MPEG-1 video decoding chip and VCD first, allowing them to compete with MPEG. -1 All investment in protocol research and development has been wasted ”
“At the same time, we have also obtained multi-format audio decoding chips such as MP3 and WMP. Even if their digital audio decoding chips can be developed now, their competitiveness has dropped to the point where they are difficult to pursue. Extent of investment in R&D.”
"Now Sony still has an advantage in MPEG2 product development. Unfortunately, we are also playing with this, and now it seems that they don't have much confidence in themselves." Zhou Zhi spread his hands and shrugged Shoulder: "In other words, he They don’t have the confidence to beat us in terms of time, efficiency, and R&D costs.”
“If you can’t beat us, then it’s best to join in and play together...”
