Chapter 1174 It’s Time to Establish an Online Payment System
Wu Tao has had a long-standing idea to establish an independent financial system for his entire industrial empire through online payment and Internet finance.
Work in this area has been implemented since the initial application platform created by Tianjing Company.
Later, the Tianxing game battle platform and the payment interface of Qianqianjingting website actually all have the shadow of this strategy.
It's just that at the moment, each company is only operating independently and has not formed a unified payment system. Naturally, its influence cannot be reflected.
Of course, having said that, with the current maturity of the domestic Internet, it is at best the level of the previous life in 2005, and the revenue scale of the entire payment system is not enough to develop to a level that deserves attention.
This is also the reason why this issue has not been put on the agenda.
Now, if it is to serve the overall strategic goal of conglomeration of the entire industry, it is completely necessary to start promoting it and even add some strong medicine to promote development.
That night, when Wu Tao took An Rong back to An's house for dinner, they naturally talked about this issue.
An Dingguo was originally immersed in the excitement of Tianxin Technology and Research Institute's major breakthrough in the semiconductor field. When he first heard that Wu Tao's thoughts jumped to online payment, he felt a little strange and puzzled.
After all, online payment does not sound so easy to accept.
And compared with the size of the semiconductor industry, it is simply not enough. Is it necessary to talk about it in such a big way?
Wu Tao's thoughts were forced back, and at the same time, he used his eyes to stop An Rong next to him from scolding Nai's father.
A wise daughter is better than a mother.
When Gu Jin saw her daughter's small mouth turned into an unhappy look, she quickly picked up her best four-dimensional meatballs and put them into Wu Tao's bowl. She followed the roundabout without losing any embarrassment and said, "Don't just talk, eat the food." vegetable."
Wu Tao really liked Aunt Jin's Sixi Meatballs, so he ate them seriously.
At the end of the meal, seeing Gu Jin's chopsticks reaching into the plate of Sixi Meatballs again, she suddenly felt like crying.
Fortunately, An Rong saw the opportunity quickly and put a large amount of fresh green vegetables with chopsticks into his bowl. There was no room to put the pile of Sixi meatballs, so Gu Jin gave up.
She really is a good wife to me.
Wu Tao burped slightly, raised his head again, and had already thought about how to continue the conversation.
"Uncle An, you are right." After affirming first, An Dingguo looked proud and at the same time, his attention was obviously focused a little more, "Our semiconductor industry has made major breakthroughs, and we really need to concentrate on it. It’s a great direction.”
"...However, it is said to be a breakthrough, but it is actually just a good start." Wu Tao's voice became calmer, as if this great good thing was not done by his people, with a kind of indifference and indifference, "Just like In other words, our chip design level, production level, establishment of chip peripheral ecosystem, etc., all need to be rolled out step by step."
An Dingguo suddenly felt that his throat was a little dry. He picked up a glass of water and drank more than half of the glass. Only then did he calm down. "In this case, you really can't be too high-profile."
"Uncle An, you are right," Wu Tao said with great relief. "With the domestic semiconductor industry just starting out, low-key development is always right. Don't look at the American semiconductor industry giants praising us. Hello, me, everyone. Okay, that’s actually because we’re not good enough to be an opponent in their eyes yet.”
After saying these words, An Dingguo's heart felt cold and he drank two or three glasses in a row.
Originally, he was counting on his political career to be able to benefit from the development of this industry, but now it seems...
Wu Tao saw this, but did not point it out, "Actually, Uncle An, as long as domestic semiconductors are willing to continue to invest and have policies and guidance from all sides, the development of domestic semiconductors will not be a problem. The problem is how to avoid repeating the mistakes of Japan in the late 1980s, or in other words The later the 10 points that make us a thorn in the side of Americans are pushed back, the better.”
The amount of information here is so large that it has made An Dingguo feel embarrassed. The spicy wine remains in his throat, so that his voice is hoarse when he speaks: "This is why you are so low-key in officialdom this time. The reason?"
"That's right," Wu Tao continued with a clear mind: "Japan's semiconductor industry rose so fast back then, but didn't it end up in a mess? But having said that, this has also led to Japan's semiconductor industry being able to become One of the partners we are trying our best to win over..."
But before he could finish his talk, he was interrupted by An Rong: "Oh, don't worry about my dad, let's get to the point quickly. His old man's mental endurance is not as strong as you think. !”
As soon as the precious daughter finished speaking, Gu Jin became unhappy before An Dingguo could say anything, "You kid, what did you say about your dad?"
An Rong spat out her tongue and said, "Mom, Dad, actually he wants you to take the lead in promoting this online payment. For example, in the future, Jinling will be built into a mobile payment city. In the future, whether it is shopping for groceries or taking a ride, You don’t need cash to buy tickets for the bus, you can do it all with just a mobile phone!”
"How is this possible?" These words described the convenience of basic life, so Gu Jin rarely expressed his opinion, "Everything in life costs money, and everyone can't have a mobile phone, right?"
An Rong decisively brought the topic back, pointed at Wu Tao and said, "This is what he said. I think it's pretty good. Nothing is impossible."
So Wu Tao had to patiently explain the idea and development route of online payment.
After a few words, An Dingguo listened and followed up with his thoughts. His expression became more solemn as he listened, "So, once your online payment is established, it will be equivalent to establishing a virtual financial system that is separate from physical finance. .”
"...It's okay when it's small, but once it develops and grows, I'm afraid it will be inseparable from the norms and guidance at the national policy level."
Wu Tao nodded, "Yes, if you want to do this, you have to do it impeccably. So in this regard, I need you, Uncle An, to find a reason to help open up a hole in the policy."
An Dingguo let out a long breath, picked up his chopsticks again and said, "Okay, I'll look into it later."
After seeing Wu Tao off, An Dingguo turned around and returned to the study.
After a while, he put on his coat again and walked out the door without saying a word.
Gu Jin opened her mouth to express concern, but she saw her precious daughter smilingly greeting her husband and opening the door.
"Rong Rong, what do you think of Xiaotao's thoughts? Your father is so anxious."
An Rong put her hands in the pockets of her trousers and retorted with slightly raised eyebrows: "Mom, how can you think like this? Isn't Wu Tao doing this to add some chips to his father's political career? Why do you just do this? I don’t understand his painstaking efforts!”
