In the early morning of the next day, Gu Ao was woken up by a phone ringtone.

It was around 3 a.m., which was outrageous, with hypotension and irritation.

Gu Ao rubbed his brain and staggered towards the phone.

This must be a call from China, which has such a strange jet lag.

"I'll look for Mr. Gu Ao." The first sentence of the voice opposite seemed a little restrained.

"I am." Gu Ao scratched his hair.

Then the other party immediately relaxed: "Oh, Xiao Gu, I'm a damn goodbye. You didn't disturb you to rest. I have to discuss with you an urgent matter. I also know that you have a time difference, but no matter how late the leader is, I'm not good at reporting on my work."

Gu Ao woke up for two seconds and realized that it was Director Bao.

"Uncle Bao, you said that if you call this number next time, it would be better for you to call in the morning. Maybe I haven't slept yet. This is West American time, three hours later than East American. I'm now at 3 am."

Director Bao on the opposite side choked slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.

Director Bao is also aware of foreign affairs work, but because he had been dealing with Americans in China for many years with Watsonton politicians and even corporate giants on Wall Street, he was used to the 12-hour time difference in his mind.

Now that I’m dealing with emerging giants in Silicon Valley in the first year, I forgot to consider that not everyone in the United States uses Watson time.

He asked Gu Ao's number in California and called him directly. He thought he was polite enough and would catch Gu Ao and get up at around 6 o'clock, but he thought it was 3 o'clock in the middle of the night.

"I'm really sorry, pay attention in the future."

"It's okay, you are the leader, so I just mentioned it casually."

Director Bao didn't take any airs at all: "You are now off-payment and staying with Kissinger to study, so why are you talking about leaders? The day before yesterday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs transferred an application letter from the embassy in the United States to our department. It was all Motorola, Texas Instruments and other major companies. They hope to hold the first global industry technical standard formulation meeting of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Branch of the IEC Society in China with... Tiankun Media. You must have made great efforts in this matter?"

Gu Ao: "Actually, I just happened to meet. It was Han Ting, a teacher from the former department who went out to start a business. He advised me to recommend those American and Japanese companies to go to China for a meeting, saying that this is also a political achievement. By the way, her Han Le Electronics is also the participating unit.

However, I really don’t have the ability to influence those Americans’ decision to open a city in China. I can’t do anything about this. By the way, their intention is to open a city in which city they want to open a city? I don’t even know. At the beginning, I gave them some introduction information. After they learned about the situation in China, they closed the door and discussed it themselves, but I couldn’t even get involved.”

Director Bao heard this, because of the information asymmetry, he had no doubt at all: "So that's the case. Then I will tell you now that the intention of those American businessmen is to hold a seminar in Hujiang to respect Hong Kong-funded enterprises as the initiator.

Are you free during this period? Is Professor Kissinger busy with classes? If you take a leave or something, it will not have a bad international impact, right?"

Director Bao's last two words were so unconfident. Although Gu Ao was once his subordinate, he is now a student of Kissinger. The great god brought it out. Now no one in China dares to underestimate anyone who is in the officialdom.

Gu Ao heard this and felt a little funny: "You have something to say, but I forgot to tell you that the professor has made special adjustments to my studies recently. He will retire next year. In order to bring me to graduation, he is willing to delay retirement for half a year. So I want to have a more relaxed topic and let me participate in his monograph "On China". As long as I submit the manuscript on time, it is okay to ask for leave."

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has actually known the content of Gu Ao's doctoral degree, because he had asked for instructions before.

But the Ministry of Electronics Industry is another system, and obviously has not cared about this matter. At this moment, Director Bao only found out that the first time Gu Ao mentioned it.

"In order to take you, Professor Kissinger has specially delayed his retirement for half a year?" Director Bao was in awe of his stern teeth, and his upper and lower teeth were counterfeited. "Then... if it is really convenient, you can take some time in the near future and report to the minister to me. It is easy to prepare for the reception of the international academic conference."

"No problem, I will be back in the country in the next two days!" Gu Ao pretended to hesitate for a moment before agreeing.

Plan Pass.

In the conversation just now, the reason why Gu Ao pushed Han Ting to the front desk to block the gun was not to share reputation, and pretended not to affect the decisions of Motorola/Deyi/Sony, was to not take responsibility and hate.

In the 1980s, the local protection of major cities in China was very strong, and officials from the border wanted to benefit the local area. This kind of thing that allowed major mobile electronic equipment giants around the world to gather together and open an international technical standards society would definitely be a big shot.

Although this is not a direct investment promotion, if any electronics giant thinks that the city has a good environment, cheap manpower and land, and can also be used for universities and talent reserves, and then a little cooperation... it is simply ineffective.

Maybe the country did not intend to open up certain cities as the second batch of independent cities, but it was said that so many giants and foreign investors were interesting, and policies could be fine-tuned.

If this matter is finally made public, it is said that Gu Ao made the decision. Although the provincial and municipal leaders who benefited will accept Gu Ao's great favor, other competitors will offend him.

This is unnecessary to attract hatred.

It would be better to say to the outside world that it was decided by the foreigner. When it was time to handle the matter, I closed the door and told the people from the benefit area: This matter was actually decided by my brother who helped the foreigner.

Then Gu Ao accepts the favors himself, letting the hatred be carried by Master Foreigner (no one dares to hate Master Foreigner)

When Han Ting hung up the phone, she was actually awake and took a blanket to put on it.

Gu Ao shook the other party's hand: "I'll take you around Silicon Valley during the day and visit it. You have been busy with your business these days in San Francisco. You have been back to China on the evening flight."

"I can do it, be careful and don't be tired."

...

The boats and cars in the middle were busy and there was no need to repeat them. After a day and a half, Gu Ao went to the capital first, and the first to pay a visit to Director Bao.

"Yo, Director Gu is back."

"Xiao Gu, is the United States back?"

Before he could reach Director Bao's office, he was watched by many former colleagues along the way, and many of them were one level higher than him or even two levels higher than him. But no one of them was entrusted in front of him, either from the deputy department or the former colleagues in the main department.

Everyone knows that Gu Ao's further study is worth an upgrade. As the only Chinese graduate student on earth who studied international relations with the former Secretary of State, the moment he gets his doctorate, as long as Gu Ao wants to come back to become an official, he will be able to go to the deputy department in an instant. (It's a pity that he makes too much money and cannot take back his influence, so he can no longer get ashore)

Moreover, these people seemed to have received some news and knew how much political achievements Gu Ao had brought to the minister this time.

"Hey, okay, Director Wu, by the way, where is the Qin State's Qin Bureau? Why didn't he see him? Didn't he be with you?" Gu Ao responded to his personal relationship and struggled.

When the person who was talking to him heard this question, he even showed a mysterious expression: "Don't you know? Old Qin has risen openly and secretly, and on the surface he gave an explanation to the British. He took it down last month, but he has been to xx Heavy Industry as the factory director in the past two days, and the main hall."

Gu Ao suddenly realized.

After finally getting rid of these people, Gu Ao walked into Director Bao's office.

"Director, I'm back."

Director Bao looked full of spring breeze: "Are you back? The minister asked me three times in the morning. Let's go directly to the minister's place to report."

As he said that, Director Bao pulled Gu Ao's sleeve and went out.

When I arrived at the main owner, I was inevitably praised and shook my hands hard.

"Xiao Gu, I just said you are a capable person. No matter what position you are in, you always have to make some big news about shocking motivation. I haven't seen you for only three months, and you've made such a big noise. It's not easy to read even with Kissinger."

"Minister, you are too proud. I am just a coincidence. You know, I used to do some side jobs and have some interest in electronic technology. Since the department adjusted its work, I was full of energy and I was thinking about how to contribute to our electronics career every day." Gu Ao's humble words, which he didn't want to pay, poured out like boiling water.

"I believe that it is hypocritical for others to say this. If you Xiao Gu says this, it is true. Come on, sit down and chat..."

(Several reports from senior management are omitted below)

"... In short, this is the situation. If this academic conference is held well, it will have significant benefits for my country's industrial development to absorb foreign advanced technologies, and it will also win the first springboard for the country to compete for the formulation of international electronic technology technical standards."

Gu Ao finally summarized this.

His last report just now emphasized the issue of "the right to speak for international technical standards". Well, it is roughly similar to the "Huawei and Qualcomm voting dispute" that later generations have learned. But in terms of severity, the communication coding rules must be universal, so the formulation rights are particularly valuable. Other electronic technical standards do not necessarily have to be born or died, so they are not that serious and valuable.

But no matter what, he also made the Minister and Director Bao look even further. In the 1982 period, even senior officials of the department rarely noticed the issue of "the right to speak in the formulation of international technical standards". What everyone was worried about was how to swallow the industrial transfer of developed countries, and they were not as far away as they thought.

"It turns out that this matter has such a great extra meaning, which was unexpected at the beginning..." The minister twisted his chin and pondered, "Then we must do a good job in reception and presidency. Xiao Gu, the department will not come forward directly in this matter, because after all, you have also said that foreigners are more accustomed to industry associations and do not like the government's intervention.

In this city, since foreigners want to be in Hujiang, then Hujiang. I will ask for instructions from above and approve some documents. The country will not pay any money. You can rely on Hong Kong funds to raise funds. If you need local cooperation, we can solve the problem. Other surrounding cities have to undertake some reception diversion work. As long as you do it according to economic laws, it will not be difficult for you."

"Don't worry, Minister, that you will definitely live up to your mission."

Gu Ao of course can afford the entertainment and travel expenses for academic conferences. But what he lacks is the great title that is fully managed in China. If the Ministry of Electronics Industry comes to endorse such matters and promises to him through documents, he will be able to do it.

As for local governments, there are not many things that need to cooperate. Anyway, foreign businessmen come to meet and pay the money they should give. At most, they can take documents and money and ask local governments to make some rectifications on tourism reception facilities/hardware in advance.

If there is no red-headed document, even if he uses the money to ask the local area to rectify hotels and entertainment places, the local area may not be willing to obey it.
