I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World Chapter 593: Free wifi!
Remember [novelmao.com] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
The two New Zealand telecommunications operators originally provided network services in the new country. After the launch of the Quantum Communication Satellite of the Star Ring Trade, the free Wi-Fi service will be provided to the whole country of the new country. The business of a foreign telecommunications operator in the new country was instantly crushed.
There are free things, who will pay for them?
Although the speed of 20Mbps is not the fastest in the world, it is definitely enough. Delays below 20 ping are also impeccable for the user experience. After all, even if this value is lower, the human eye can’t tell.
The service life of a quantum communication satellite is about 5-10 years, and the cost is about 100-200 million US dollars. Star Ring Trade is expected to launch a total of 36 satellites in synchronous orbit. The average annual budget for aerospace activities will reach 1.5 billion US dollars.
Because of the scarcity of resources in the end time, Jiang Chen did not want to waste Jiang Lin ’s time on production, so he transferred the entire production line of quantum communication satellites to the present world. Considering that the quantum communication technology must be kept strictly confidential, this production line has become the most automated production line in the future group of people. 85% of the production procedures are completed by drones.
Although this design has doubled the cost of the production line, it has cut the labor cost of producing satellites to a certain extent.
From a long-term perspective, these investments are still worthwhile!
But no matter what, projects involving space are still burning money.
Perhaps the situation will get better after the space elevator is built.
For the withdrawal of foreign telecommunications operators, based on the principle of not being wasted, Jiang Chen bought New Zealand Telecom ’s branch in the new country at a floor price of US $ 210 million, and took over all its interface equipment and talents. Later merged into Xinghuan Trade Network Project Department to provide technical services for the new country’s Internet interface.
Because of the quantity problem, the function of the quantum communication satellite is only equivalent to a large router. Although this “router” can “observe” the weak electromagnetic wave signal tens of thousands of kilometers through the quantum entanglement effect to realize the Internet data exchange between satellites and conventional mobile phones, but in the final analysis, this router still has to communicate with the ground signal base station connected.
For example, users in the new country want to visit the website of the United States. Although they use the satellite network, the data still has to rely on the ground base station to take a submarine cable.
The innovation of the quantum communication satellite is that the traditional “user-optical solder (or WiFi + optical solder) -server” data transmission model is reformed into the “user-satellite-server” model. And its ability to accept data uploaded by users can be regarded as an upgraded version of Google’s global wifi plan.
When will the 36 satellites of the Star Ring Trade all lift off, and the “WiFi signal” covers the entire earth, and only then will the submarine cable start to withdraw from the historical stage.
Regardless of all technical aspects, perhaps the cheap weather observation service provided by Xinghuan Trading has not made the people of the new country feel any benefits, but the free wifi program received rave reviews as soon as it was launched. Whether you are fishing at home or at sea, as long as you are still in the new country, you can connect to the wifi signal.
At the beginning, when Xinghuan Trading announced that it would provide free wifi to all parts of the new country through satellite, foreign experts dismissed it. However, when they discovered that Xinghuan Trading was really done, these experts and professors were all dumbfounded. Various universities and scientific research institutions almost exploded Xinghuan Trading.
For inquiries from the outside world, the response given by Xinghuan Trading is very official.
1. Communication does not exceed the speed of light.
2. The specific signal transmission route involves corporate secrets, and no response will be given.
But it ’s funny to say that this epoch-making technology was first frightened not by experts and professors, but by a telecommunication, even barrels, and immovable thousands of kilometers away.
Although the satellite must rely on the terrestrial interface to provide users with wifi services, the location of this interface may not necessarily be in the country, and it can be placed in any corner of the earth.
That is to say, Xinghuan Trade only needs to maintain a large Internet interface in the new country to provide wifi to any user in the area covered by the signal through the quantum communication satellite. And these users are connected to the Internet through the interface of the new country, which has nothing to do with the country where they are located.
For some people, this is bad news!
Free wifi? Coverage across the border? This is simply grabbing money!
CTV and other media have voiced overnight, questioning the free WiFi plan of the Star Ring Trade, or will violate the laws of neighboring countries such as Australia and New Guinea, and even the Liu family ca n’t help. The telecommunications industry involves too many interest chains, and even the Liu family cannot face these opposition voices alone.
Liu Xiangguo called Jiang Chen the first time the official media spoke.
“You are not thinking about doing this.”
Unconsidered?
Jiang Chen was baffled when he received the call. He doesn’t remember that he has any plans to start any business in China recently. Is that what Ning Huajian did?
After listening to Liu Xiangguo ’s words, he found that it was not the case at all, so he laughed and explained, “Free wifi will only be implemented in the new country. Regional implementation. Recently, the cooperation project we negotiated with the Telstra telecom operator in Australia also provides individual users with an account online service at a monthly fee of 15 Australian dollars. “
15 Australian dollars is equivalent to 11.6 US dollars, or 75 yuan. Such a price is still very attractive to Australian people who have an average Internet fee of 60 Australian dollars and also restrict traffic. Only a few areas have access to unlimited data and high-speed Internet because of the NBN access point.
Liu Xiangguo was slightly relieved when he heard Jiang Chen ’s words.
“I would like to ask one more question, which side of the interface do you use for the project you are working with in Australia?”
“It can be a new country or Australia, but Telstra is very enthusiastic that they can leave the interface maintenance to them, so we will hand over the interface for users in Australia to Telstra. After all, maintaining the network interface, It’s also a big expense. “Leaning on the office chair, Jiang Chen habitually turned the pen in his right hand and explained to Uncle Liu by holding the mobile phone in his left hand.
Speaking of this, he is still a little puzzled. Xinghuan Trading has never started any business in China. The only two overseas businesses, in addition to the civil war between the Moro and the Philippines, have also recently cooperated with Telstra of Australia in the wifi business.
“That is to say, if Australians want to use the WiFi of your Starring Trade, will they still use the interface of the Australian carrier?”
It’s funny to say that neither Liu Xiangguo nor Jiang Chen understands these professional knowledge very much. The two people discussed these issues with each other and they didn’t understand it.
“In theory, yes.” Jiang Chen nodded reluctantly.
Although he would like to add a sentence to this old man, this is not necessary. But he thought about it for a while, but still dismissed the idea.
After hearing Jiang Chen’s affirmative statement, Liu Xiangguo smiled.
“It turns out to be the case, then I can rest assured. But you wifi …… Just do it abroad, you know what I mean.”
“Don’t you want to surf the Internet for free?” Jiang Chen asked quizzically.
“Do you think that Liu’s family lacks that network fee?” Liu Xiangguo laughed.
Jiang Chen was stunned for a while, and he understood what the old man was pointing, and then he laughed.
“The same is said.”
After talking to Uncle Liu for a while, he hung up the phone.
With the future people group raising more than one billion yuan each year, the Liu family really does not need to worry too much about the family ’s accounts. As long as the future group does not do anything too outrageous, the energy of his Liu family will still be able to stop it, so they can still take this money for a long time …
Hundreds of Internet fees? A sea of water. (To be continued.)
