Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

Especially after that, the broadcast test satellite launched by NASA successfully completed the active delay relay communication. This success made the use of artificial satellites expected by all walks of life.

In 6, the American Telephone and Telegraph Company launched the "Dianxing No. 4" low-orbit communication satellite, which realized the transmission of intercom, TV, fax and data across the Atlantic Ocean at [-]GHz and [-]GHz, and established the technology of commercial satellite communication. Base.

In [-], the Soviet Union launched the "Lightning" synchronous satellite, which completed regional communications and television broadcasting between the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe.

So far, the experiment of communication satellite, and its practical value have been widely recognized.

The important value of artificial satellites in the military field has already been reflected. Now all the world's first-class powers are developing artificial satellites rapidly, and the number of satellites launched is also increasing.

In addition to the military field, the civilian field is more widely used, especially in the fields of communication, broadcasting, meteorology, navigation and positioning.

With the development of the global economy, many military equipment invented during World War I and World War II began to be gradually converted into civilian use, and as artificial satellite technology became more and more mature, its importance in civilian use has also been highlighted. "

"I think that at this stage, human beings have not fully developed the value of artificial satellites. Artificial satellites have a wide range of uses and have great development prospects.

Its civilian value will increase in the future. As European and American countries continue to use technology in the military field for civilian use, the future life of human beings will undergo earth-shaking changes. "

As a later generation, he clearly understands that with the popularization of smart phones in the future, the Internet will explode with amazing potential.

At that time, the value of satellites will be truly reflected. In the future information age, if a country leaves satellites, its development in all aspects will be greatly restricted.

Whether it is the military field or the civilian market, the future is inseparable from satellites, and its role and value can be imagined.

Chapter 741

Those who don't plan for the world are not enough for a moment.

Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain.

In fact, Yang Chen doesn't understand the so-called overall situation, nor does he know in which direction the world will develop in a hundred years. He only understands what the world will look like in a few decades.

In Asia, there is no such foundation as the United Kingdom in developing countries. No matter how rich they are, they will not be able to acquire companies like British Aerospace Corporation.

Even if it is inland, in the field of aviation, the whole country is concentrated, and it took decades to catch up with the footsteps of Western countries.

In the interior, the military field is all state-owned enterprises, and private individuals don't say you have money, even if you have a background, it is useless.

As for the United States, unless Yang Chen is willing to change his nationality and become an out-and-out American, otherwise, he has no chance at all.

The field of military science and technology is a highly confidential and sensitive topic in any country.

In the middle, it really cannot be measured by money.

This time, the UK is implementing privatization reforms, regardless of whether it is a large or small enterprise, military or civilian, important or not, all of them are sold at the same time.

It can be said that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and there is only one time. After passing this village, there will be no such shop.

This is the same as after the disintegration of the Soviet Union in the future, as long as you have money, people dare to sell anything. There is only one opportunity. If you miss it, it will be difficult to find another opportunity.

Now the Conservative Party headed by Margaret Thatcher in the UK has to intensify efforts to promote the privatization of British companies due to economic problems.

Although these enterprises are in the loss stage due to various reasons.

However, one thing we cannot deny is that most of these companies in the UK are world-leading or world-class. After the acquisition, there is nothing to worry about except sales.

To be honest, Yang Chen wants to acquire all of the many companies in the UK. Technology is priceless. No matter how rich you are, without the accumulation of background, the time it takes is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

However, the British are not fools, they will certainly not let outsiders control too many important enterprises in their country, especially some monopoly enterprises.

Therefore, he can only choose the most promising company with stable development.

Electricity and telecommunications, one is inseparable from industry and people's livelihood, and the other has huge potential in the future. These two are more important and meaningful than banks.

"After you went down, you started to work on the acquisition of British Aerospace Corporation, and you could directly talk to the British government when bidding.

We can pay off the shares they sell in cash in one lump sum, if the British government thinks that our acquisition of British Aerospace will endanger the national security of the UK.

You can tell them clearly that we can accept that they split British Aerospace Corporation, and we can give up some things that involve sensitive research and production. "

Yuan Tianfan: "Split British Aerospace Corporation?"

Yuan Tianfan was a little surprised that Boss Yang came up with such a method, but this method is indeed feasible, and it is also very simple and straightforward.

However, if you want to split British Aerospace Corporation, this idea may be difficult to realize, but any military industrial enterprise that reaches a certain scale will inevitably develop in the direction of military and civilian use.

If the military field wants to maintain technological leadership, it must continue to research. The capital investment in this is not a small amount. Selling arms alone is not so easy to find when there is no war.

The development of civilian products is an important direction for all military enterprises to open source, which can relieve the financial pressure of military enterprises to a large extent.

Yang Chen: "Of course, this is a last resort decision. Splitting British Aerospace Corporation is actually good for us. First, we can use this to dispel their concerns. Second, after British Aerospace Corporation is split, the market value will definitely increase. The cost of our acquisition will naturally decrease.”

"Judging from the current global situation, the rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union has, to a certain extent, limited the initiation of large-scale wars. This is no longer World War II for decades. Once the United States and the Soviet Union fight, the world may be directly destroyed.

Both the United States and the Soviet Union understand this truth, so it is obviously impossible for a war on the scale of World War I and World War II to recur.

As for small-scale local wars, before the Falklands War, the whole of the UK was unwilling to expand the scale of the war.

From this point of view, as long as there are no accidents, the military field in the UK in the future is bound to become a low-return industry.

Splitting British Aerospace Corporation may cause British Aerospace Corporation to lose orders from the military and cause serious losses in a short period of time, but in the long run, it is also a burden for us. "

Yang Chen really wanted to split British Aerospace Corporation, he was really not interested in the military field.

The United Kingdom is not the United States. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the U.S. empire frequently launched wars for oil in the Middle East. In addition, the United States still has a huge domestic demand. The U.S. military enterprises do not have to worry about no orders, and they have opportunities to make money.

But the United Kingdom is different. The United Kingdom does not have the strength to launch large-scale wars, and even small-scale wars rarely occur. At most, it is jointly led by EU countries to bully the Middle East and African countries.

There is no major war, the scale of local wars is limited, and foreign sales, British military enterprises have to compete with other countries in the European Union, such as France and Germany. After the British Royal Fleet became history, these two European countries have almost opened up all aspects competition.

In this way, it is obviously impossible for British military enterprises to develop well. Under the advantage of maintaining technological leadership, military enterprises have no debts, so they should laugh.

In fact, even if he can't buy British Aerospace Corporation, Yang Chen is not afraid. If he loses this opportunity, he only needs to wait a few more years. When the Soviet Union disintegrates, he can completely realize his goals from the Soviet Union.

In the previous life, after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, a large number of domestic factories and scientific research institutions closed down one after another, many experts and professors in the military industry lost their jobs, and their income dropped sharply.

Especially in some cutting-edge industries, a large number of first-class engineers have come to a standstill, the economy of the entire country has collapsed, and there is no money to research and develop scientific research projects.

For a scientist, it is cruel to have no project to develop, especially for those scientists who are unemployed and have no food or clothing. In order to survive, they have to accept olive branches from abroad.

In which context, a large number of scientific and technological talents in the Soviet Union have been exodus, and Europe and the United States and other countries do not know how many top talents have been absorbed from it.

From a long time ago, Yang Chen made up his mind that after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, he would use money to open the way and buy some scientists and research equipment he needed to add more foundation to his business empire.
