- 1990 was the beginning of the 1990s, and the most influential things that happened in this year were undoubtedly the Soviet Union¡¯s announcement of abandoning the one-party system on February 2, and Lithuania¡¯s announcement of independence from the Soviet Union on March 11.
With this incident on February 2, the Soviet Union broke its foundation and dug its own grave.
The independence of Lithuania on March 11th was the beginning of the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Since then, the various republics have separated from the Soviet Union. Although Zhou Xingsheng did not know the order in which the various republics separated from the Soviet Union, he also knew that as soon as this opening was opened, The collapse of the Soviet Union is imminent
Historically, the disintegration of the Soviet Union occurred in 1991. He could not remember the specific time.
The Soviet Union, a behemoth that had been hegemonic for a while and had gone through World War I, World War II and the Cold War, spanning the Eurasian continent and the world's most extensive territory, was finally about to disappear due to various reasons. It makes people sigh with emotion. How wonderful things are. It is constantly moving and changing, nothing remains the same.
Of course, the disintegration of the Soviet Union, in addition to shocking people, in today's world, I believe countless people are cheering for it
Although the disintegration has not been officially announced, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Soviet Union, which has been cut off from its foundation, is about to become independent from Lithuania and move toward disintegration step by step. Unless a shocking miracle occurs, it will be impossible to come back to life. Everyone is waiting for the fall of this giant. Next, Guan Bing was breathing, and his hands were already moving quietly.
The Americans, the British, the French, the Germans, and the Chinese were all waiting cautiously while quietly making small moves, digging into the foundations of the Soviet Union.
Needless to say, the Americans are an old rival of the Soviet Union, and they have already been ready to attack.
Needless to say, the British and French have long been dissatisfied with the Soviet Union, a giant that has dominated the European continent since World War II, and have always been afraid of the Soviet Union's torrent of steel.
The Germans are looking forward to it enthusiastically. Because East and West Germany have just been reunited, they naturally do not want the existence of the Soviet Union, a giant that has long interfered in German affairs.
As for China, well, although it is Big Brother and has deep feelings, Big Brother is actually not very authentic, and it is always uncomfortable when the strong Big Brother is sleeping next to him. It is better to disintegrate. Hello, I am good, everyone. Then That's really good
The term "traitor" has been around in mainland China for a long time, but it was not until the beginning of the drastic changes in Eastern Europe and the period when the Soviet Union was so weak that it was about to disintegrate. At home, it has reverberated internationally. On the one hand, the domestic economy implements a dual-track system. On the other hand, the Soviet Union is too short of civilian supplies. It sends domestic civilian supplies to the Soviet Union, and then gets leather and various industrial infrastructure and technologies from the Soviet Union.
The big brother of the Soviet Union lacks everything except industry, especially heavy industry
Zhou Xingsheng, the tycoon, has no reason to let go of such a good opportunity
After the explosive news that Lithuania declared independence from the Soviet Union was broadcast on March 11, Zhou Xingsheng immediately realized that the Soviet Union was about to collapse. If he didn't start trade at this time, it would be too late. He couldn't even drink soup. It's a bit late to start, but it's better than not doing anything at all
So while paying attention to the Internet, Zhou Xingsheng also acquired a medium-sized trading company in Hong Kong and renamed it "Chongguang". It would initially specialize in international trade with the Soviet Union, and then slowly rectify it.
Zhou Xingsheng has two purposes, one is to make money, there is no doubt that the second is to recruit Soviet technical talents
To recruit technical talents all over the world, where can there be technical talents in a country fast and rich? This is the wealth of the Soviet Union for decades, and its richness is unimaginable.
Although the Soviet Union has mostly heavy industries, it is also at the top level in the world in the electronics industry. Otherwise, it would not be able to develop high-tech electronic products such as satellites, various missiles, and advanced aircraft, and it would have a long-term confrontation with the United States.
Zhou Xingsheng wants this kind of talent. He is in urgent need of it!
Zhou Xingsheng himself did not come forward in this matter. Instead, he found a general manager to act as an agent and stand at the front desk. He was invisible behind the scenes.
The company is an offshore company, headquartered in Hong Kong, and the general manager is a Hong Konger. However, the people working under him are half Hong Kongers and half foreigners, mostly Russians and Americans. In a capitalist society, the power of money is almost invincible. For For money, people can even sell their souls. Although few people go to that point, with generous salaries and commissions for more work, even if they go to poach the motherland, the Russians in the company not only do not resist at all, On the contrary, they are more active and excited than Americans and Hong Kong people
There is no way, the Russians are landlords, if they can build a little relationship, they will definitely reach more deals than the Americans and the Hong Kong people, which meansThey get higher commissions and more colorful swords
After half a month of rectification, the international trading company that changed its name to "Chongguang" immediately dispatched
In the first month, the trade volume of Chongguang Trading Company was close to 5 million US dollars, which was a great success!
In the second month, the trade volume directly exceeded 10 million US dollars, doubling that in the first month, and the growth rate was astonishing.
By the third month, at the end of June, the trade volume slowed down without the crazy growth rate in the second month, but the growth rate also reached 50%, hitting a record of 15 million US dollars. the height of
After this report card was released, Zhou Xingsheng was shocked by it
Although the total trade volume is not net profit, judging from the current growth rate, even if the growth rate stops later, the total trade volume this year will exceed 100 million US dollars. If you look at the trade records again, almost every trade volume will exceed 100 million US dollars. The net profit of each commodity is more than 30%, and even more commodities have reached a net profit of 300%, which is no different from robbing money.
According to the report analysis, the net profit will be more than 40% of the total trade volume
In other words, if the total trade volume this year exceeds 100 million US dollars, then the net profit this year will be at least 40 million US dollars!
What kind of crazy data is this?
Even though Zhou Xingsheng now has a net worth of tens of billions, he earned 40 million U.S. dollars and more than 400 million Hong Kong dollars in a year. He was still shocked beyond measure and began to wonder if his eyes were dazzled?
Is this how profitable international trade is?
Zhou Xingsheng himself had a huge urge to start a small company specializing in international trade and earn 400 million a year. The money came in quickly and easily. There is no more comfortable way to make money than this.
Of course, this impulse was suppressed by Zhou Xingsheng in the end, because he was very clear-headed. This was just taking advantage of the fact that the Soviet Union was now in chaos. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, international trade would not be so easy, nor would it be so profitable. On the contrary Yes, setting up a company or doing industry may not be fast, troublesome, and difficult to make money, but it will continue to happen as long as the entire industry does not become obsolete.
??Just when good news comes frequently on the trade front, the preparations for the establishment of the World Wide Web Alliance, which has always been smooth sailing, are experiencing twists and turns, and bad news continues.
The preparations for the establishment of the World Wide Web Consortium have indeed been recognized by most IT companies, research institutions, schools and governments around the world, but there has been constant wrangling among the participants regarding the establishment of the four major global headquarters.
The World Wide Web is destined to cover the whole world, and there cannot be only one headquarters. Whether it is from the considerations of each country or from the actual resource utilization, the participating alliance member states will not agree if the headquarters is located in one place because it is too important; in addition, If you want to cover the whole world, just one headquarters is not enough. Four headquarters, one in America, one in Europe, and two in Asia, are more sufficient.
The quarrel among the participants is based on this issue
With the exception of the United States, which has different opinions on establishing a headquarters in the Americas, most participants agree
But for the plan to have one headquarters in Europe and two headquarters in Asia, except for the Asian side who unanimously agreed, everyone including the United States disagreed, and the reasons were very good. Asia's economy is underdeveloped, and it is even more chaotic on the Internet. Blank, one headquarters is enough, two are a waste
Because of this matter, we keep arguing
Not to mention small Asian countries such as India, Singapore, and the Philippines, they are not qualified, but China and Japan are different. One is the country with the largest population in the world. After these years of reform and opening up, its economic strength has matched its military strength. Its influence cannot be ignored, and it is one of the five permanent countries of the United Nations; one is the second largest economy in the world after the United States, and its products are spread all over the world.
In both countries, there are two universities participating in the preparation of the World Wide Web Consortium. China is the Aeronautics and Astronautics University, and Japan is Keio University.
In the plan of two headquarters in Asia, one headquarters is located in Beijing, the mainland, and the other is located in Japan. Hong Kong does not. It is not that Hong Kong is looked down upon. In fact, in the face of Beijing, Beijing, and Japan, Hong Kong¡¯s voice is really too weak. To quote later generations In one word, it's weak!
In the dispute, the two universities are advancing and retreating together, and the government behind them is also working behind the scenes and mediating many times.
In addition to this trouble, something has appeared in the United States
The United States believes that they invented the computer and the Internet was born there, so they should have invented the World Wide Web. Now Hong Kong has taken the lead, and it is irreversible. They cannot take the initiative and can only became one of the alliances, and was unwilling to withdraw from the alliance. Then not long after, the Ming Dynasty in the United States??Suda University advertises that they are also developing a system similar to the World Wide Web
This matter is causing quite a stir in the industry
Many troubles, one after another, finally came to Zhou Xingsheng, and all parties hoped to achieve their wishes through him
However, Zhou Xingsheng did not take care of it
In addition to requiring Xusheng Technology and a series of rights and interests in the alliance, Zhou Xingsheng does not intend to interfere too much. The World Wide Web is free. The World Wide Web that is independent of any government and institutions is the World Wide Web that truly makes anyone feel at ease. Only then can we truly go global and unify the world.
The fact is just as he suspected. After he made the World Wide Web completely independent and handed it over to Tim Berners-Lee and Lin Xueyi, despite so many troubles, IT giants and research institutions from various countries all turned to the World Wide Web. After that, the World Wide Web Consortium was successfully formed.
On June 1, 1990, in Hong Kong, the World Wide Web Consortium was officially established, with the English logo: w3c! (To be continued) - Didn't finish reading?
