Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 691 Technical Experiments in CERN

……

After deciding on the Chinese name, Wei Yixin began to discuss with Tang Huan the economic issues of Xiangjiang that he was concerned about.

Although he has experience in dealing with Hong Kong and mainland China affairs during his career as a diplomat, Wilson's political qualifications as a China hand are still relatively shallow compared to the position of Hong Kong governor.He knew this himself, so his humble gesture came from the heart.

"Don't look at the current prosperity of Hong Kong's stock market and real estate, but signs of overheating in the global economy will inevitably make this economy with a special structure catch a cold." Tang Huan said meaningfully: "After you took office, Maybe it will be the same as Sir Youde when he took up his new post, and will soon encounter some difficult problems."

Wei Yixin nodded, taking this reminder into his heart, and then turned to ask tentatively: "At the beginning of this year, there were major changes in the top management of China. Do you think the mainland's policies will change because of this, so as to affect Xiangjiang? economy."

"In terms of politics, you are more professional, so I won't play around with others." Tang Huan laughed, "However, I think Xiangjiang's unique position as the window of mainland China to the outside world will not be shaken for a long time. . Seizing this point, we businessmen don’t need to bother ourselves.”

"How is the relationship between Qinhe and HSBC?" Wei Yixin inevitably mentioned this question. After all, for the small pond of Xiangjiang, it is two evil dragons splashing together.

"My way of doing business has always been to share interests and cooperate sincerely, but if someone came to the door, I would never bow my head and kill. The reason why Jardine was acquired by me at the beginning was also a helpless move under the struggle of emotions."

After Tang Huanyan laid the groundwork insincerely, he said without giving in: "The direction of the relationship between Qinhe and HSBC depends entirely on HSBC's actual actions. After all, it has provoked Qinhe too many times."

Wei Yixin shook his head and sighed distressedly, "It seems that this is another difficult problem that I need to face after I take office."

"It can be said that HSBC is becoming more and more out of place in the British Far East business interest groups." Tang Huan said with irony: "Although I had a fight with Jardine before, the final result is that Jardine has changed completely. After becoming Qinhe, its commercial interests are more guaranteed. Swire Group's approach has the same effect. It has just officially introduced CITIC into the equity structure of Cathay Pacific. But what is HSBC thinking? I really don't know."

Wei Yixin waved his hand, as if to drive away these troubles, and then pretended to be relaxed and said: "Let's talk about some less serious topics, after all, I can't take office with a bitter face."

"That's true." Tang Huan laughed loudly, "Then I'll just talk about it. In my opinion, it's good news. For example, Xiangjiang's commercial films are currently developing quite successfully, and several works have already won awards around the world. million-dollar box office."

"That doesn't depend on your ability to operate well." Wei Yixin obviously worked hard to get to know Tang Huan, the benefactor, and sent a compliment at the right time.

"Believe me, now is the best era for Xiangjiang's commercial films, and it is fully qualified to be a business card of Xiangjiang, which is enough to provide dazzling achievements." Tang Huan emphasized seriously.

"Okay, I will take a closer look when we get to Xiangjiang." Wei Yixin accepted the suggestion.

"All walks of life in Hong Kong will warmly welcome the arrival of the new Governor of Hong Kong." Tang Huan congratulated in advance.

"I hope my new Chinese name will satisfy everyone." Wei Yixin smiled.

……

After privately meeting the new Hong Kong Governor David Wilson in advance, Tang Huan secretly met with Prince Sabah who was sitting in the Kuwait Investment Bureau.

The Kuwait Investment Authority, which is trying to take a controlling stake in BP, is quietly sucking in shares from the market.

Judging from the current situation, if the risk of leaking information is not contacted with large block holders, the progress will be quite slow, and the Kuwaiti royal family seems to be a little anxious.

"Let's wait patiently for a few more months, at least until the results of this year's British general election come out." Tang Huan suggested, frowning: "Although the Conservative Party has a clear advantage, and Mrs. Thatcher is also very popular, but be careful. Wrong. For such a sensitive acquisition, factors from the political level must be taken into account as much as possible.”

Prince Sabah understood that there was no point in being anxious, and Tang Huan was right.He sighed, "It's just like hunting, you do need to be patient."

……

After completing these two tasks, Tang Huan didn't need to deliberately keep a low profile, he could say "I'm here" openly, and the easiest and most direct way was to watch Chelsea's league matches.

There is no doubt that the Chelsea team, which is backed by the big benefactor, has not won the league championship, but has become the most powerful contender. It is getting closer and closer to the goal of winning. In the season from 1986 to 1987, only Victory is in sight.

At this stage, there are two theories circulating in the British football media.

The first one is about Tang Huan, who was rated as the most generous and patient boss.After Gein happily filled all the financial holes for the Chelsea club, the richest man's request for the team's performance was unhurried, quite a sense of letting nature take its course.

The second is about Ferguson, who was named the luckiest and most trusted head coach.With a slow and generous boss like Tang Huan, Ferguson can not only get the player he likes without worrying about the cost, but also implement his plan in an orderly manner.

In fact, even if Tang Huan wanted to make the Chelsea club achieve great success, he would not be able to do so.Because after the tragedy at the Heysel Stadium, English Football League teams were excluded from European competitions.

This negative impact is becoming more and more obvious. One main manifestation is that many outstanding British players and coaches have left in order to obtain a larger professional stage.

For example, Howard Kendall, the head coach of Everton that Chelsea faced today, is said to be working for Athletic Bilbao in Spain next season.

You know, under the guidance of Howard Kendall, Everton won the eighth Division A championship in the club's history in the season from 15 to 1984 after a lapse of 1985 years.

This season, Everton is also the favorite to compete for the league championship, and Chelsea occupy the top two in the league standings, as powerful as Liverpool, but also squeezed to No.3.

But in such a good situation, Howard Kendall still has to leave League One and go to La Liga to strive for greater career advancement.

Therefore, Tang Huan's request for Chelsea is not urgent, let's accumulate steadily first, and when everyone can't stand the bleak market and wants to leave the League One and form another Premier League, we will explode again.

Although they have not yet won their first league title, the Chelsea fans who feel that hope is within reach still showed their love for the team and their support for the club.

When Tang Huan appeared in the box, the camera quickly followed, and there were huge cheers from the stands.

The richest man is very satisfied with this - I spent money, isn't it just for such an effect!

The main people in charge of the British industry also sat in the box.

Tang Huan smiled and said to Michael Aldridge, CEO of Lai Online: "The 30th anniversary of Media Asia TV is coming soon, you have to go to Xiangjiang."

Media Asia TV, which came from the acquisition of Li's TV, has always regarded itself as the successor of "Li's Yingsheng" which was earlier than Li's TV.

On March 1949, 3, Li's Husheng head office opened a Hong Kong Li's Husheng radio channel in Xiangjiang, setting up a Chinese channel and an English channel, providing broadcasts from 22:[-] am to [-]:[-] midnight.

In April 1957, the Hong Kong government issued a license to Li's Voice, allowing it to operate cable TV.

同年5月29日，丽的呼声(香江)有限公司以400万港元资本创办的丽的电视台正式成立，取名为“丽的映声”。从1957到1987年，正好是30周年。

Li Yingsheng is not only the first TV station in Xiangjiang, but also the first TV station in the Chinese area around the world.

The legal inheritance that Media Asia TV wants begins with this "beautiful reflection", and the meaning of the pursuit is self-evident.

Otherwise, the history of Media Asia TV is less than ten years old, far behind its peer TVB, and its qualifications are too shallow to pretend that they don't know how to speak. .

The Xiangjiang media, including TVB, secretly disdain Media Asia TV's behavior of putting money on their faces.

However, when Landi Voice, which was in operational difficulties, was completely acquired by Tang Huan last year, Media Asia TV's historical view was no longer controversial - it was not only the first TV station in Hong Kong, but also the first in the Chinese region around the world. a TV station.

Michael Aldridge naturally understood Tang Huan's meaning——as the CEO of Lidihuosheng headquarters, he went to Xiangjiang to participate in the 30th anniversary celebration of Media Asia TV in order to prove it.

The competition between the top two in the league standings is naturally very exciting. In the end, Chelsea beat Everton with a score of 2:1, indicating that they are one step closer to the championship.

After that, Tang Huan attended two charity events organized by organizations including the Diana Foundation.

Originally, he planned to take the opportunity of coming to the UK this time to watch the latest "007" "The Living Daylights" that replaced the actor of James Bond - "Death by Daylight", but the sample film was not released as planned.

Just like Tang Huan's previous charity activities, he paid close attention to AIDS. The disease is becoming a global pandemic, and the situation is very serious.

The reason is that, in addition to the need to strengthen research on AIDS in the medical field, people still keep secrets about AIDS, and developing countries suspect that the hype about the dangers of AIDS in developed countries is another political conspiracy.

In the face of such a serious situation, the production team of "Dead by Daylight" decided to change the film editing and remove all sexual scenes including James Bond and Bond girls.

Of course, Tang Huan would not interfere with these specific affairs, but just shrugged and joked with director John Glenn, "It seems that it won't be hot-eyed, and "007" with the male lead replaced will be a little fresh novel. do."

……

Next, Tang Huan went to the European continent and walked around to appease the disappointment caused by the technical implementation plan of the California high-speed rail project being snatched away by the Japanese.

Of course, Tang Huan was inevitably dragged by the proud female shipping queen Cristina to admire the new AC Milan stadium that will be officially put into use next season.

With this stadium named after Athena, the only daughter of Tang Huan and Christina, AC Milan does not have to share a stadium with Inter Milan, which is extremely crowded and inconvenient, and AC Milan will also have a stable financial income from now on. .

In the season after the end of the Juventus era, the performance of the AC Milan team was extremely brave. Coupled with the stimulation of this good news, it swept everything more and more. Juventus did not let go.As for Naples without Maradona, let's not mention it.

Condescendingly pointing to the lawn in the middle of the stadium, Christina showed off: "Now my AC Milan, like your Chelsea, has its own stadium, which is considered even. When will we meet in the European arena?"

While teasing his youngest daughter Athena, Tang Huan replied helplessly, "I can't give an answer to this question. It depends on how the clubs in the English League regain their qualifications for the European competition."

……

Athena, the little princess of the two families, is not usually favored.Tang Huan has always taken her with him on his subsequent European trips, even including a visit to CERN on the French-Swiss border.

This large international laboratory is almost completely occupied by the information system solutions provided by Fangyuan Computer and Zheru Software.

One of the biggest application results is undoubtedly the world's leading data processing center, which not only assists in the analysis of experimental data, but also provides a unique and powerful retrieval system for researchers from all over the world to use.

Tang Huan likes the academic atmosphere of CERN very much. There is no bureaucratic atmosphere of NASA and other institutions here, and the quality of the personnel is absolutely excellent. It is simply the world's number one "good" user.

This "good" means that some of Tang Huan's new technological achievements can be satisfactorily applied here; if it is replaced by other users, it is very likely that due to various factors, it will be winked at by blind people.

For example, the data retrieval system of CERN is a technical experiment of Tang Huan.It adopts a WWW service model that is common in the space-time Internet era, and can use hypertext user interface mode to allow scientists to easily find the information they want in the vast and vast database.
