At this stage, all countries are actively promoting the popularization of mass computers, that is, personal computers. The difference is that depending on the strength of the country's national strength, there are differences in the intensity of action.

There is no doubt that the performance of the United States is the best, which has directly counteracted the promotion of economic development, thus invisibly adding a lot of luster to the policies of the Reagan administration.

The situation in Asia is quite special. Due to the different character systems, the technical realization of Chinese character informatization has encountered a challenge that cannot be ignored. After all, since the product is positioned as a mass computer, then language localization must be supported.

In view of the limitations of the existing CPU computing power and memory capacity, Chinese character informatization cannot be realized by pure software. It must rely on hardware, that is, Chinese cards.

Because of this threshold, Fangyuan personal computers equipped with "Tang Code" Hanka quickly squeezed out personal computers of other architectures from the market, even including the developed-series personal computers of Japanese origin.

The smoke of the North American personal computer market war has directly spread to the European market. Many personal computer brands that cannot gain a foothold in the North American market, including cheap personal computers such as Compass and Texas Instruments, have all turned their sights on the European market, making it a low-end place. 8-bit personal computers are popular.

However, due to the Western blockade, the Soviet Union has become a marginal player in this personal computer world trend. Only Western European countries have kept up with the times.

But with Fangyuan PC, ibm-, and Apple Computers, the main forces fighting in the North American market, they also came to the European market to stir up the storm, and local brands of personal computers in European countries have died out, and the United Kingdom has a little resistance. Power.

However, when the scandal of the British "Uncle of the Country" host Jimmy Saville was revealed, the credibility suffered a very serious crisis, which in turn made the rationality of the funds used for the personal computer education program questioned, and the final joint research with Aikon Computer Xun was defeated and completely gave way to Fangyuan Personal Computer.

The French side. After François Mitterrand became the fourth president of the Fifth Communist Party in 1981, he implemented a series of socialist policies, including expanding paid holidays, reducing legal working hours, nationalizing some private enterprises, Increasing social security fees, etc.; however, due to the continued deterioration of the economic situation, it turned to cut public expenditures. Lean towards freedom. ?.??`c?om

Although François Mitterrand has had a series of economic problems at the economic level since he came to power, his public information technology plan, which promotes the popularization of computers, is still quite eye-catching, attracting all kinds of people in the technical field. Academic experts came to participate. Among them, there are many famous people, such as two computer science champions from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology: Marvin Minsky, known as the "father of artificial intelligence", and Nicholas Negroponte.

Tang Huan’s participation is of course very realistic business cooperation. At this time, France, no matter how poor it is, it is many times richer than China.

Like the one in the UK, Tang Huan did not show up at Deng Lijun's Paris public concert, but took advantage of this gap to visit Fangyuan Computer's operating results in France. Its outstanding performance in the field of education is nothing new. It started to show up, which aroused his great interest.

It belongs to the national network established by France itself. It is the abbreviation of "\\\'" in French, and the corresponding English is "", which means "digital telephone interactive media information".

As the name suggests, it is an online service built on the telephone network. It was put into trial operation in Brittany, France in 1978, and officially launched in 1982.

You know, in the original time and space, it was the pioneer of French Internet applications, the most glorious time. The number of terminal equipment installed in France has reached 10,000, and the number of users has reached 10,000.

For this reason, then French President Chirac proudly praised: "The baker in the northern French town of Aubervilliers knows how to check his account. Can this kind of thing happen to a baker in New York?"

Is too successful, even hindering the French Internet exhibition. This situation is the same as that of Western European countries at this stage. The isdn that must start with the entire infrastructure to upgrade is the future, but in the end it turns out that there are better technical solutions that can be upgraded on the existing network-temporarily advanced, leading to another one who does not know that it should be commented as Is it right or wrong?

In fact, in addition to being a science and technology project, it has also been given a political meaning. It's the same as France and NATO remain as if they are separated to show their status as a great power.

Because of this, France Telecom is in charge of operations, and the funds come from the support of the French government. This is the same as that of the United States, which is similar to the online services created by Tang Huan. Recently, it has deliberately changed its name to AOL and other online services. Promoting by commercial companies is very different. ?.?`

Regardless of the difference between the two, it is a delicious big cake. France, which wants to maintain its technology, can only build barriers on the back-end network equipment, and the front-end that users contact, that is, various smart terminals, it cannot monopolize. Faced with powerful personal computers, French companies simply cannot resistance.

Due to the agreement with Apple, the 8-bit first-generation Fangyuan computer could not be sold in the United States, so it found a place in Asia and Europe. After the 16-bit second-generation Fangyuan computer was launched, it became the most popular among French users. Terminal.

The fundamental reason is that, through cooperation with Olympus Group, a partner operating locally in Europe, Fangyuan Computer Co. has launched a model suitable for French people. Although the price is a little bit more expensive, it is a complete set. Personal computers are powerful enough to make users willing to bear the cost.

This kind of Fangyuan personal computer first supports internationalized languages, including the Western European alphabet system including French language with extra accent. All of them have been perfected by computer informatization; secondly, all online services supported, such as train ticket booking, stock inquiry, e-mail, etc., are not a problem; finally, more general-purpose personal computers besides proprietary terminals are supported. Features.

It is precisely because of this crush that Fangyuan Computer easily won more than half of the terminal share, and it is more optimistic about future growth.

In fact. Fangyuan personal computers have always been fiercely replacing traditional terminals. In addition to such a national network for the masses, various giant manufacturing companies, including automobile manufacturers, are also pursuing proprietary networks with e-commerce functions in order to reduce the cost of the supply chain.

Media Asia TV’s predecessor, Li’s TV, is its parent company, Li’s Yingsheng. At that time when Tang Huan wanted to buy Li's TV, he extended his diversified business tentacles into this type of e-commerce field.

In the beginning, the terminal it promoted was a variant of a TV equipped with a computer chip, but now it all adopts a specific model of Fangyuan personal computer.

Just the Fangyuan personal computer produced by the company itself, this year's sales volume will easily exceed 10,000 units, and powerful contributors include these specific terminal areas.

What makes Tang Huan drool the most is that European countries such as West Germany, Belgium, Italy have also moved his mind due to his outstanding performance since he started his service.

During the visit, Tang Huan noticed a very obvious point, the online service provided. It has its own AOL; but some of the online services provided by AOL do not.

Why is this? That's because the function of the French origin back-end network server is not powerful enough.

In this way, Tang Huan has the opportunity to provide a package of solutions including front-end terminals and back-end equipment for those countries trying to follow up.

...

Accompanied by French government officials and French Telecom executives, after the visit, Tang Huan attended the solo concert held by the French president’s wife Danielle Mitterrand for Deng Lijun at the Elysee Palace. François Mitterrand was also present.

The romance of the French is world-famous. Some dignitaries and celebrities, including François Mitterrand, all have hidden love in the dark.

Therefore, Tang Huan specially reminded Deng Lijun in a joke before. "Be careful of being harassed."

Deng Lijun, who has been to Paris several times, didn't take it seriously. Compared with the impression that she was frightened by the bad public security situation after hiding in the United States after the "passport incident," she obviously felt better about the artistic heritage displayed here.

Just as Tang Huan said. Deng Lijun's demeanor at the concert attracted the attention of the French people in the audience.

At the end of the concert, when it was time to thank you, a few French men who thought they were handsome, graciously kissed the hands. Tang Huan looked a little greasy.

It is different from the first lady of the United States, Nancy, who concentrates on assisting her husband Reagan and doing a good job. Danielle Mitterrand, the French first lady, does not live a pampered life in the Elysée Palace honestly, but actively devotes himself to social activities and is a senior social activist.

When Danielle Mitterrand visited Tang Huan’s semiconductor factory fab1 in France, he repeatedly asked about the salary, benefits, vacation and other conditions of the workers there, and even to the point where the boss was annoying, it could be seen Her style of behavior changed.

François Mitterrand is the first democratically elected left-wing president of France. His wife Danielle Mitterrand is a long-term supporter of Cuba, and she can be described as a member of the political arena in the Western world. Be unique.

Therefore, another point that Tang Huan reminded Deng Lijun in advance is that we and each other are only mutually beneficial, each taking what we need, and we must pay attention to keeping a distance in personal relationships.

This reminder was heard by Deng Lijun, but some accidents were still beyond defense.

When Danielle Mitterrand handed a commemorative medal commemorating cultural exchange to Deng Lijun, he said in public: "Telisa, I heard that you have been enthusiastic about charity and concerned about children's education in out-of-reach areas. Recently. I'm going to visit Africa, why don't you come and have a look."

Deng Lijun nodded happily to the invitation of the first lady of France, but Tang Huan, who was on the side, showed an unhappy expression.

He didn't have much to say at that time, so he had to say to Deng Lijun afterwards: "This invitation, find an excuse to reject it."

"Nothing? This is an invitation from the President's wife." Deng Lijun was a little puzzled. "Besides, I am still serving as a goodwill ambassador with UNICEF, and I should be more concerned about this kind of activities."

"Africa is more chaotic, I really don't know what to do in my heart." Tang Huan sighed and explained.

"Is it still dangerous to stay with the President's wife?" Deng Lijun smiled, turning his head to comfort Tang Huan, and finally said what was in his heart.

"After the Paris concert, there will be only one stop on Treasure Island for my world tour. If you can win the chance to hold a concert at the Big Six, then there are two stops left."

"But anyway ~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ After the trip to Paris is over, I must return home to the island in fine clothes, and then I will inevitably cooperate with the official arrangements to attend various public events."

Tang Huan interrupted in a dull voice: "I have reached an agreement with Mr. Jiang. You can refuse these interruptions."

Deng Lijun smiled bitterly, "You just fought for me non-compulsory treatment, but you can't stop the world. After all, my family still needs to live on the island. Now with the invitation of the French president’s wife, I can be honest. Be quiet, and wait for the preparations for the Treasure Island concert to be completed, then go back and sing directly."

Tang Huan was speechless for a while, and when he wanted to find other reasons to dissuade him, Corina Menzelpoulos, the hostess of Chateau Margaux, invited Christina and Deng Lijun to go on vacation and left Paris. .

In less than a week, the Los Angeles Olympics was about to kick off. A series of events in San Francisco were waiting for Tang Huan to attend. He had to shake his head and return to the United States on the Silicon Valley One. (To be continued.)
