In recent years, Western European countries are also facing the problem of economic stagflation like the United States, and their coping strategies are different.
For example, compared with Britain's preparations for the privatization of state-owned enterprises at the parliamentary level, France is supporting state-owned enterprises and has two landmark projects, one is the French high-speed train TGV and the other is the French Internet Minitel. The former has been opened between Paris and Lyon, and the latter has established an experimental network containing 4000 terminals, which will be launched nationwide in France next year.
The name of French Internet Minitel is not English literal meaning such as "small" and "mini", but comes from the abbreviation of French, that is, digital telephone information, interactive media, and then some simple technical information.
In short, France Telecom provides a dial-up network for data communication using packet switching technology. Users accessing the network need to use a terminal equipped with a modem, which is basically equivalent to a personal computer. The cost is a bit like what people are familiar with in the "old script" decades later. Families install broadband, promise to use it for a certain time, operators send light cats and set-top boxes, and France Telecom rents terminals. The cost invested by users in hardware is very low.
The reason why the terminal in the current experimental network is basically equivalent to a personal computer is that its data processing capacity is very low. For example, the monochrome display integrated with keyboard, modem and other parts can only display Limited plain text, but adjust the data transmission speed of the demodulator, which can be called a "leader" in this era, Up to 1200 bits per second.
In any case, Minitel in France is a pioneering and advanced project at this stage. It cannot be started without the strong participation of the government and state-owned enterprises.
In fact, Minitel is also an embodiment of the expansion of French economic policy and even the improvement of social welfare.
Francois Mitterrand is the first left-wing president elected in French history, and the French economic policy is left, including the promotion of nationalization of some industries and the increase of the minimum wage by 10%. In essence, it is stimulating social demand. The application of emerging technologies such as French high-speed train TGV and French Internet Minitel has a better effect.
As for the big cake of equipment manufacturing around Minitel, it is mainly shared by three major French enterprises, namely Matra, radio engineering company and Alcatel.
Among them, French radio engineering company belongs to an electronic enterprise, which mainly manufactures record players, televisions and other products. Philips company of the Netherlands holds 49.9% of the shares. It is the main supplier of Minitel terminal equipment.
First of all, sir Gao, who had a clear grasp of the situation in this regard, said to French Prime Minister Pierre morova who accompanied him: "Mr. prime minister, Minitel, the world's leading project, can be called great, but the shortcomings in specific implementation are also very obvious."
"Using the terminal is related to the most direct user experience. It is easy to use and durable, which significantly affects people's enthusiasm to use Minitel. The technical content is not amazing, but it can not be ignored."
"In addition, if Minitel is successfully promoted, every family in France will have a terminal, which is actually the groundwork for the popularization of home computers and personal computers in France."
"It's just that in terms of personal computer technology, radio engineering companies are more professional. I'm afraid they can't do what they want."
Everyone is a thousand year old fox. Naturally, we can understand the real meaning behind these words.
Pierre morova said bluntly: "Sir Gao, you must have seen that one of the main driving forces of the government's active support for Minitel is that it is enough to stimulate the French economy, including R & D, manufacturing, application and so on. The jobs provided alone are very considerable."
This implies that the sharers of Minitel cake should base their business in France. For example, in the "old script", high-tech giants such as Google, Microsoft and apple focus on making money and don't pay attention to social contribution in the European market.
Gao Xian was not surprised by this. He put on a thoughtful look, finally "clenched his teeth and stamped his feet" and made a path: "I fully understand and admire Mr. Premier's idea of paying attention to social benefits. In fact, this is also the ideal that every responsible entrepreneur strives to achieve."
"In this way, I can lobby IBM's personal computer department to actively cooperate with French radio engineering company in technology transfer, joint development, localized production, etc. the two sides can achieve multi win through joint investment and establishment of the company."
Seeing that Sir Gao's attitude was so sincere, Pierre morova smiled: "Sir Gao has a pattern, Minitel has unlimited prospects, and the participants will definitely get a satisfactory return."
Gao Xian is funny to himself. The eight personal computer technologies are enough to cope with you. In addition, the specific implementation link is delayed for at least a few years. When you create the so-called self owned technology products, there will only be one end, which is far from being left behind by the rapid development of the personal computer industry.
But this has nothing to do with Gao Xian. What he wants is an opportunity to enter the French market.
After Charles Tandy arrived in Paris and started negotiations with the French government, French radio engineering company and other relevant parties, Gao Xian turned his attention to the research on Minitel's business model.
Minitel is really not the wishful thinking of the government. With the level of economic development in France, it can indeed make a profit. The most obvious model is the telephone directory, and the models of mail order retail, purchase of air tickets, train tickets, stock query, message board and so on are not castles in the air.
Even, according to Gao Xian's experience in the "old script", I'm afraid that the telephone voice service with "pink" will soon spread.
Gao Yi's team submitted a preliminary research report to Gao Xian. It is expected that Minitel will provide practitioners with more than $100 million in revenue in three years. Of course, most of it will be taken away by France Telecom.
Gao Xian basically agrees with this research report, but what he pays more attention to is the opportunity to enter the French market.
Zhou Wenyao, CEO of happy technology, who came to Paris to establish a stronghold, said with longing: "boss, Minitel has such a good prospect. Developed countries like West Germany must follow up."
Gao Xian shook his head slightly. "Follow up is sure to follow up, but it's hard to judge whether it is successful or not. After all, the national conditions are different. The strong promotion of the French government and French state-owned enterprises can't be ignored. In fact..."
Speaking of this, Gao Xian stopped, because what he thought was that if Minitel could continuously improve itself and become a world standard, everything would be fine, but if it could not compete with the future world wide web, it would become a resistance to the development of the Internet in France because of its vested interests.
