Rebirth of England

Chapter 919 New Position

"In this cabinet reshuffle, although I am still lagging behind Theresa May, at least I have shortened the gap."

"Theresa has more seniority than you, her position as Home Secretary is difficult to shake, and compared to those core cabinet members, you are too young..."

Barron told Joe Harriman:

"But we can work on the number of supporters within the party, and we are doing well now."

At the beginning of this year, because the public and the media were dissatisfied with some British policies, and many Conservative MPs criticized the coalition government for not taking enough action to promote British economic growth, this prompted Cameron to decide to adjust the cabinet members.

According to Cameron’s spokesman:

Cameron plans to add more young people to his cabinet and those with the ability to help him formulate policies to stimulate economic growth.

However, the main cabinet members and the general direction of economic policy will not change.

In the end, there were no changes to the most important ministers of finance, interior ministers and foreign ministers in the cabinet.

Joe Harriman's position has been adjusted from Minister for Women and Equality to Minister for Business, Innovation and Skills, and concurrently serves as Chairman of the Trade Committee.

It can be said that this adjustment represents an increase in the importance of Joe Harriman in the cabinet. After all, the original Minister of Women and Equality Affairs was often held concurrently by other cabinet members and was a relatively marginalized position.

According to information obtained by Barron, Cameron initially intended to appoint Joe Harriman as Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, considering her previous qualifications as a senior executive of SEM Group, and she was considered a "professional counterpart", but Also because of her previous experience in SEM Group, if she were nominated for such a position, she would probably be opposed by media such as the BBC and Sky TV, so she was ultimately given her current position.

The person who succeeded Joe Harriman as Minister of Women and Equality Affairs was her former deputy Grace Oliveira, who has a close relationship with Joe Harriman. Therefore, in general, it can be said that this cabinet adjustment has made Joe Harriman ·Harriman's "ranking" within the Conservative Party has improved.

And before that, Joe Harriman, based on Barron's advice, had begun to deliberately win over his supporters within the Conservative Party.

Currently, the Conservative Party has a total of 307 seats in the House of Commons, and nearly 40 Conservative MPs are already political allies with her.

At the same time, she is also promoting and supporting some young newcomers. She believes that in the next government, with her support within the Conservative Party, she can win a more important position for herself.

"How should I thank you, my Duke..."

Joe Harriman looked at Barron with his beautiful eyes, and his seductive lips seemed to be hinting at something.

"Do you still want me to tell you? Baby..."

Barron glanced at the dial on his wrist and said with a smile:

"Rosie should be arriving in a while, we can warm up first..."

"I don't want to wait for her to see me in such a mess when she arrives."

Although Joe Harriman said so, the meaning in her eyes seemed to be completely different.

So when Rosie Huntington opened the door and entered Joe Harriman's bedroom, the scene she saw made her face immediately turn rosy...

On July 1, O2 Telecom announced that they have decided to cooperate with Huawei Marconi to start deploying 4G networks in the UK.

As early as March this year, the British telecommunications regulator Office of Communications began issuing radio spectrum licenses to five operators that won the 4G auction.

The five operators that originally obtained 4G licenses were British Telecom (BT), O2 Telecom, Hutchison Whampoa UK Branch, EE and Vodafone.

Of course, just winning the 4G license auction is not the end, because the British side will allocate 4G spectrum from 800MHz to 2.6GHz frequency bands. In the final allocation stage of the auction, these five operators will also "raise their bids". Frequency band selection.

In the end, the allocation phase of 4G spectrum brought additional revenue of 27.16 million pounds to the British government.

It can be said that in this auction, the bids of these operators were relatively cautious. The final auction brought a total revenue of more than 236 million pounds to the British government, which was significantly lower than the British government's original expectation of 1 billion pounds.

O2 Telecom won the most important 800MHz spectrum block. Of course, the British government also has higher requirements for this.

To this end, O2 Telecom needs to launch 4G services suitable for "indoor reception" by the end of 2017, which must cover at least 98% of the British population and 99% of the outdoor population.

It can be said that O2 Telecom’s 4G network equipment purchase is the largest order in the entire British 4G market, and Huawei Marconi’s acquisition of this order is not surprising at all. After all, Barron himself is the major shareholder behind this joint venture.

O2 Telecom's 4G deployment throughout the UK is naturally carried out in stages. The first batch of commercial operations will definitely be the most important London area.

At the same time, obtaining this 4G network order from O2 Telecom and the subsequent performance of its 4G network in the London area are also very important for Huawei Marconi to obtain more related orders from other telecom companies.

They will naturally go all out for this project.

“We welcome investment from all foreign companies in the UK and hope to bring about financial and technical exchanges. The deployment of 4G networks is very important to the UK’s technology strategy and will inevitably spawn more high-tech companies. , which is of great significance to the entire society..."

As Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills and Chairman of the Commerce and Trade Committee, Joe Harriman also attended the ceremony where O2 Telecom and Marconi Huawei launched the deployment of 4G networks and gave a speech on stage.

At this time, Joe Harriman had her long hair tied up neatly, and she was wearing a dark suit and trousers with a slightly neutral color, which could not hide her beauty at all, and gave people a sassy look.

Well, it’s completely different from the Baimei Qianjiao that night...

After participating in this event, Jo Harriman will also lead her team to Silicon Valley. In order to implement the "technology strategy" she proposed after taking up her new position and build a British technology center, she will try her best to persuade companies including Microsoft and Google. Silicon Valley giant increases investment in Britain.

After his visit to the United States, Joe Harriman's next stop is China.

The purpose is naturally to consolidate the results of Cameron's visit at the end of last year, and at the same time strive to attract more investment from Chinese capital.
