Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 174 The Emergence of E-Commerce

Sure enough, Tang Huan's answer immediately made Ivanov very fond of him.

The total cost of the Moscow Olympics is 90 billion US dollars. Such a grand event must not let the Americans mess up. It must break the ice at all levels.

And the Chinese entrepreneur in front of him seems to be a good target.

In addition, this person was born in the Dragon Kingdom, so he could ease the situation in the East while breaking the deadlock brought by the West.

I just don't know what the other party is looking for, it must be nothing more than commercial interests.

Sure enough, Ivanov discovered in the subsequent conversation that Tang Huan always found every opportunity to inquire about the Soviet Union's needs in personal computers.

A relaxed smile appeared on Ivanov's face, "Our country is a planned economy, as long as your products are good enough, you can definitely win bulk purchase orders."

"Of course I have confidence in my product, and its production base is located in Southeast Asia, so there will be a lot less restrictions on trade." Tang Huan said with a pointed mouth.

A shrewd businessman, while Ivanov was commenting in his heart, he also assured Tang Huan that he would provide him with the convenience of business investigation

When Tang Huan left, he got a quite satisfactory result, but Christina was a little unhappy about it. She was cheated into marriage by the Soviet Union, so she naturally disliked her current man to have anything to do with the Soviet Union. .

Tang Huan chuckled, "The bosses are fighting for fame, and we small fish just take this opportunity to do some small business. You won't have trouble with money, or think about it from another angle, what we earn is from the Soviet Union." Money is nothing if you don’t make it.”

"That's true." Christina was coaxed to be happy, and Tang Huan's next plowing in Nanyang was much smoother, and the Queen's throat was almost hoarse.

Tang Huan, who had sorted out all aspects of his work, boarded his private jet the next day and prepared to start his trip to Europe.

However, he received a very unexpected news and had to stop in Florida to visit his salvage fleet.

According to Tang Huan's instructions, Fisher led a new team to continue salvaging the wreckage of the Lady Atoka. Of course, it was not for the scattered treasures that were not worth the loss, but to get familiar with the new equipment and let people like Tang Huan find the wreckage. Chinese new crew members adapt to the working environment.

Then, Tang Huan will give the location of the area where Spanish warships sank in the colonial era and start the actual salvage.

But sometimes, God will make some surprising jokes. This mixed team of rookies and veterans unexpectedly found another wreck of the Lady Atoka, and found a large number of wrecks in it. Gemstones measured in kilograms.

After seeing these salvaged items, Tang Huan couldn't help saying with emotion, "We don't produce gems, we are just porters of nature."

Christina's obsession with gemstones made another mistake, and she couldn't put it down, grabbed one after another, admiring them intently.

"It seems that we mainly use these treasures that were harvested by the barbarians in the colonial era for public welfare, and we have been appreciated by the heavens. Otherwise, how can we explain that luck has come to us again so quickly?"

Tang Huan gave a speech awe-inspiring, making these subordinates feel that they are not just employed by the boss, but are engaged in a great and sacred job. An Anxin continued to be busy.

In order to process these gems, Tang Huan delayed his trip for a few days, and the proceeds were naturally returned to the Shennong Fund. After all, the expenses of projects such as research on HIV can be described as a lot of money.

Moreover, he didn't have much greed in the first place. Even if he did, he was dispelled by the awe of this kind of luck that came again. This thing was too weird, so I still felt at ease spending the money I earned seriously.

Tang Huan explained his thoughts to Christina, and the ship queen was no longer so fascinated.

Next, the schedule of the European tour returned to normal, and Tang Huan's first stop was the UK.

Tang Huan first played with Christina for two days, and then sent her to watch a professional women's tennis match, while he got down to business and visited Li's Voice, the parent company of Li's TV.

In fact, Li's voice is just an inappropriate translation term. The original name Rediffusion is more accurate, because the business of this old British company is very complicated.

In the early days of its establishment in the 1920s, Li's Voice mainly broadcasted radio broadcasts through cables for remote areas in the UK that could not receive radio wave signals. Later, in the 1950s, it also engaged in the business of TV stations, TV rental and sales.

The business scope of the "Voice of Beauty" cable station has also gradually expanded from the British mainland to Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Barbados and other overseas colonies, as well as Thailand.

Li's TV, which transmits programs through radio waves, and its predecessor, Li's Yingsheng, which relies on cables to transmit programs, were established during this period.

Now, Li's voice business has long been diversified, such as cabin simulators, while the status of radio and television stations is not so important, otherwise, it would not have sold Li's TV to Australia after the investment in Canada failed. consortium.

Therefore, the title of Rediffusion is more accurate, and its current CEO, Michael Aldrich, is a celebrity.

Last year, this man invented online shopping, the prototype of e-commerce. He also combined television, computer, and telecommunication network technologies to invent the Teleputer.

Naturally, under the leadership of this CEO, Rediffusion got involved in this business, and even changed the company name to Rediffusion Computers in 1981 in the previous life, which made people think that it had completely switched to a computer business.

Tang Huan was very curious about e-commerce before the advent of the Internet, and almost forgot the real purpose of his trip, which was to take over Hong Kong's Li TV.

Aldridge promised to consider this request from Tang Huan, who has a strong background in Silicon Valley, and then turned his interest back to the application of IT technology.

Through the conversation, Tang Huan finally confirmed that the so-called online shopping basically refers to the B2B model. For large manufacturing companies such as automobiles, this platform will bring great convenience to them and many suppliers .

Discussing this kind of application that was already extremely mature in the previous Internet era, Tang Huan's casual words can make Aldrich shake his heart. In the end, he had to admit with admiration that Silicon Valley is indeed the most developed place in IT technology.

Hearing this compliment, Tang Huan just smiled slightly, and at the same time thought about it, the current set of things made by Aldrich is obviously more suitable for use in conjunction with ERP for corporate use.

As for the specific development level of SAP's ERP, we will have to go to Germany for the next stop to know.
