"General Manager Feng, what brings you here for dinner?" Director Fang put down his chopsticks and took a sip of tea.
"Director Fang, I heard our higher-ups are negotiating with Sino Corporation to buy a batch of Sino II satellites?" Feng Yu moved closer and asked.
"That's right. Our satellite technologies are blocked by the US, and we are planning to produce our own components. That's why we are buying a batch of advanced satellites, and we are also researching Dong Fang Hong IV satellites."
There is nothing to hide. Hua Xia's satellite technologies are only above average, and she is still far from the top. But Feng Yu believes that Hua Xia will become one of the top satellites in the world within 10 years or so!
"Our Dong Fang Hong IV satellites have been developing. When will it be completed?"
Director Fang put down his teacup and stared at Feng Yu. "General Manager Feng, why are you asking about this?"
"Sigh … Director Fang, please don't misunderstand me. I want to buy a satellite. I heard our country is ordering a satellite from Sino Corporation. Can you help me buy one? It will be cheaper if we buy it together. "
"You want to buy a satellite? What are you going to use it for? "Director Fang was shocked. Feng Yu wants to buy a satellite? Why does an individual want to buy a satellite?
"Communication. TV programs, phone calls, faxes, radio broadcasts, etc., all use satellites. "
"You can rent one. If you want to rent one, I will help you speak to the higher-ups, and they will give you priority if the price is reasonable." Director Fang rolled his eyes. How many transponders can you use? Why do you still want to buy a communication satellite? Do you know how many transponders a communication satellite needs? Can you even use them all?!
Also, a satellite, from the manufacturing to the launch, to the ground base, etc., will cost at least a few hundred million USD. What's the point of spending so much money?
"Director Fang, I will be honest with you. The cost of a satellite is at least a few hundred million USD, right? If I rent out one frequency band, the annual rent will be about 100 million USD, right? That means under normal circumstances, I can get back all my investment within a year, and I can even make profits in the same year. Even if I don't rent out a lot of frequencies, I can still get back my investment in two to three years. The rest of the time, I will be making money. You want me to spend over a billion dollars to solve something that can be solved with three or four hundred million dollars? "
Director Fang looked at Feng Yu curiously. "You seem to know a lot about this. What, are you planning to do your own correspondence? Or should he make his own radio and television? Let me remind you that our country has strict regulations on this, and you might not be able to make an exception. "Director Fang glanced at Feng Yu.
"Director Fang, don't try to fool me. Our country allows satellite phones, faxes, and so on. Also, I don't intend to set up a broadcasting station in China. I plan to set up a TV station in Hong Kong or Macau. That should be fine, right? When the time comes, the TV signal will be transmitted back to the country for our people to watch. That won't be a problem, right? Our country also allows us to watch foreign TV stations, not to mention our own special region's. "
Feng Yu had already considered this point. China is not allowed to do it, but Hong Kong and Macau can. It was also in Hua Xia's territory. Although it was a special region, there were no restrictions on the transmission of TV signals into the country.
In Feng Yu's previous life, some companies' TV boxes in China can even watch foreign TV programs. Anyway, you just need to pay the monthly fees for the TV box, and China had allowed this.
Of course, China still does not allow people to access some foreign TV boxes. Many countries also do not allow it.
Feng Yu can let Masao Kameda handle the leasing of the TV frequency. The Sixth Sense Group has TV stations in the US, Japan, and a few European countries. Although these TV stations are not big, they are all on satellite channels. Masao Kameda knows more about satellite channels than Feng Yu.
If Feng Yu can use his own company's satellite, why should he rent someone else's satellite? This satellite must be owned by Wind and Rain Holdings. When Wind and Rain Holdings makes money, Masao Kameda will also get dividends.
"You still want to set up a TV station? I had heard from Station Chief Jia. I don't want you to set up a TV station, so you set up a Sohu Channel. "
"Director Fang, I am innocent. I am not the one who set up Sohu Channel. It is Sohu Company. I am a lazy person, and I don't have time to manage an internet company. "
Director Fang looked at Feng Yu from the corner of his eyes. It was obvious what he was trying to tell Feng Yu.
"Alright. General Manager Feng, are you going to buy this satellite for yourself or the company?"
"It's the company. Wind and Rain Holdings. Our Wind and Rain Games is going to host the World E-Sports Tournament. There are many people in the world who like e-sports. That's why we want to set up a gaming channel to broadcast all kinds of e-sports live broadcasts, videos, and lectures. "
"What is this? You all want to set up a channel for a game? Why would people watch other people's gaming programs? " Director Fang is puzzled. He can understand why people like to play games, but why would people like to watch other people play games?
"Director Fang, did you have a video game console when you were young? I don't think so. How was the development of the video game industry after it was introduced? Have you ever seen someone who doesn't play Go but likes to watch others play Go? "
"Watching others play Go is to watch the top players, and I want to improve myself." Director Fang replied.
"That's right. It is to improve myself, and this e-sports is the same. Our country had recognized e-sports as the 99th type of sport. You should also know that this is a puzzle game, right? Don't tell me it's a waste of time. "
"You are lacking in material resources at that time, and you are lacking in material resources. Believe it or not, if you are a kid now, you will also like to play games. Go to the internet cafes, and many people in their 30s and 40s are still playing games. When they are at work, they will still get the Advanced Worker's Award. "
"Also, this channel is not only targeted at Hua Xia. It is also targeted at the Western countries and the US. We will let them watch our programs and earn money from them."
"This … are you sure people will like to watch this?" Director Fang still doesn't believe Feng Yu.
"I am sure." Feng Yu thought to himself. In his previous life, there were many Esports channels. Even on the internet, there were many videos about Esports, and the hits were very high.
It's just like those who like to play basketball and will be excited when they see basketball stars. They will also like to watch these stars play and learn from them. Esports is the same. In Feng Yu's previous life, those Esports masters also have a large number of fans, and even an Esports commentator can get a salary of 10 million RMB!
"Let me help you ask around. I am not sure about this as I am not in charge of this." Director Fang agreed after hesitating for a while.
"Thank you, Director Fang. I am only doing this for commercial purposes. If our country can develop Dong Fang Hong IV, I will surely order one or two units in the future to support our domestic products. "
Director Fang laughed and shook his head. Support domestic products? What a nice way to put it. Why don't you buy Dong Fang Hong III now? It's because your service time is too short.
