Chapter 1241 The Wonderful World Where Everything Is Interconnected
January in London is warmer than that in Jinling.
Compared to the business attire that he often wears, Wu Tao prefers his own outfit today.
Wearing a navy blue fitted windbreaker, lightweight Adidas sneakers, and a pair of black lensless frames, she was not eye-catching at all when walking among the crowd attending the conference.
After bringing his certificate to attend the conference, Wu Tao walked into the venue and did not go to meet Gu Xueli, the representative of China. Instead, he randomly found a seat at the back and sat down.
In today's meeting, he did not want to dictate as an investor, but as an ordinary person, he wanted to feel the charm of technology changing life in this kind of meeting.
As an organizational meeting for global 3G standards, this meeting has been held to this day and has determined several mainstream standards for future global 3G networks.
Different from the previous life, today's China has not proposed the kind of TD-SCDMA that wastes people and money. Instead, it has become the leader of WCDMA and has become the proposer and user of this standard together with Europe.
The same standard system has brought China and Europe closer than before.
In contrast, the United States still uses CDMA2000, making Qualcomm the biggest winner in the North American market.
Of course, the Chinese and European markets have not completely rejected the entry of CDMA2000 networks.
Among the heroes competing for the throne, who will win in the end depends on their abilities.
Wu Tao sat at the venue and felt that the collision of the two major standards systems was still full of gunpowder.
In particular, their respective prospects for the future development of mobile networks, especially the impact and changes it will bring to society and life, are all highly hyped and omnipotent.
It sounds quite exciting.
But Wu Tao shook his head subconsciously. The development of mobile networks has just begun. Many prospects and analyzes are limited by the pattern and vision, and seem too simple and naive.
Of course, Wu Tao thought so in his heart, but he didn't mean to express it with his mouth.
Who would have thought that the blond French guy next to him looked confused and actually took the initiative to ask: "I'm sorry, do you think there is anything wrong with the promotion and outlook of this meeting?"
Wu Tao turned around and looked at the other person suspiciously. He was a guy with blue eyes. He was thin and even had some faint muscle lines.
Dressed in Versace and paired with a Gucci briefcase, he looks so fashionable that he doesn’t look like a technician at all.
The other party was stunned by him, and then he introduced himself with a slight apology: "Oh, I am Claire, from France Telecom."
Wu Tao nodded in response, but he did not mean to introduce himself. He just responded lightly: "I just have a different view on the vision of the organization standard committee. They may be too optimistic."
After saying that, he turned back to drink water without any intention of continuing the conversation.
Claire felt a little dissatisfied, thinking who is this guy? He speaks so loudly, why don’t you go to the bidding committee?
However, the brief interlude did not affect Wu Tao's expectations for this meeting.
At least the successful convening of the conference means that the 3G era is coming, which is much earlier than I remember.
When he thought of this, Wu Tao suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
With the early arrival of the 3G era, perhaps many of our Internet layouts should be launched in advance and promoted as soon as possible.
He took a pen and paper and scribbled on the soft copy, but he didn't pay much attention to the rest of the content.
As a result, it wasn't until there was a small commotion in the venue that he raised his head after hearing the sound and found that the meeting schedule was almost in progress, but the white-haired old man at the speaker's desk seemed to be looking for someone.
Although I don’t know who I’m looking for, why is this handsome French guy Claire next to me so excited?
Could it be that he is looking for a beautiful woman?
It wasn't until his name suddenly came through the simultaneous interpretation headphones that Wu Tao was stunned: What the hell?
The voice in the headset continued: "Now we solemnly invite Mr. Wu Tao, a famous Chinese entrepreneur and the president of Yuanqi Technology, to give a concluding speech for this conference."
After listening to it twice in a row, Wu Tao realized that he had actually been named.
Subconsciously closing the book and standing up, Wu Tao smiled helplessly. He just wanted to attend a technical meeting in a low-key manner, how could he be discovered?
When I thought about it, it was actually no wonder. Everything was recorded when I signed in, so it wasn't surprising that I was slipped out.
Just as he stood up in the noisy venue and was about to go on stage, the handsome French guy next to him suddenly grabbed him and said with a sincere look on his face: "Hey, brother, are you actually leaving? Do you know that there is Lotus down there? Don’t you want to hear the speech from the famous entrepreneur Hua Xia Wu, the founder of mobile phones?”
Wu Tao laughed and shook his head, "Claire, if you don't let go, I guarantee that you may not hear anything from him today."
"Why?" Claire's face was filled with question marks, and her brain was as simple as a fool's.
So Wu Tao had to answer him: "Because I am Wu Tao."
At the same time, the conference hostess, a European girl, had already walked over and said, "Mr. Wu, please follow me."
Claire let go of her hand reflexively, looked at Wu Tao's leaving figure, and murmured: "I actually sat with Hua Xia Wu for three hours without knowing it. My God, Claire, you are such a lucky fool!"
After complaining, Claire suddenly thought of Wu Tao's two casual sentences just now, and her attention immediately shifted to the podium.
Five minutes later, Wu Tao stood still at the speaking table and looked around the venue. The discussion suddenly stopped.
"I am surprised that Chairman Carter discovered it even though it was hidden among the vast number of science and technology workers and standards workers. But I still thank him for giving me the opportunity to leave my views and voice at such an event."
There were some good-natured laughs.
Wu Tao continued easily: "First of all, I am looking forward to the establishment and promotion prospects of the global 3G standard. This is also the main reason why I secretly participated in this closing meeting."
"... Just now, the 3G application prospects described by experts and scholars are very exciting. And the content of my speech today is - the wonderful world of the Internet of Everything."
"...In my vision of mobile networks, everyone can access the Internet from any corner of the world through a mobile phone. This is only the most basic condition. Of course, this requires the joint efforts of all countries and regions around the world."
“…On this basis, not only everyone, but even every device in industry and civilian use can seamlessly access the Internet and become a new component of global interconnection. This is what I call the Internet of Everything. of the Internet of Things.”
Hearing this, Claire couldn't sit still.
As expected of Huaxia Wu, this point of view is really fresh and powerful!
In fact, not only Claire, but most of the people present at the meeting felt a refreshing impact.
This is a brand new argument, rather than the repetition of old arguments since the establishment of the Standardization Committee.
Wu Tao's voice continued to ring over the venue, "This will be a huge world of data, which contains everyone's imprint on this world."
"...Of course, such a complicated data world may be something that the current 3G network is unable to build. Maybe we will have 4G and 5G in the future, but I must emphasize that today's 3G is the beginning of it all!"
"...Let us look forward to this wonderful world where everything is connected! Thank you to each of you."
Wu Tao bowed and finished his unplanned speech.
After a brief silence, the audience burst into thunderous applause that lasted for a while...
