Rebirth of England.

Chapter 742 Australian Telecommunications Market
Of course, if Barron wants to achieve his idea, the wishes of the children's mothers, or persuading them, is the first prerequisite.

Among these, the more important thing is to obtain Bonnie's consent - although the two have divorced and Bonnie is already Barron's ex-wife, she still occupies the most position in Barron's heart.

After a week-long vacation on Naira Island, Barron returned directly to Australia.

"So you have other children besides these now?"

After hearing what Barron said, Bonnie gave him a speechless look and said.

"Uh, honey, those were all accidents..."

Although Bonnie and Barron are now divorced, all of Barron's children were born during their marriage...

Even though she had anticipated his infidelity, Bonnie couldn't be very happy now that she knew it.

At this time, what could Barron do? He could only coax her with sweet words.

"No matter what, you are the most important in my heart, baby. Even if I hope that the children can live together, compared to this, I respect your idea more..."

Barron held Bonnie in his arms and spoke softly.

"Asshole, and then you let me be the bad guy?"

Although she was held in his arms, Bonnie still had a cold face and turned to the side, not looking at Barron. She did seem to be very emotional.

"Of course not, baby, I just care about your feelings..."

"If you cared about my feelings, you wouldn't have had so many children..."

At this point, Barron knew that if he continued to reason, it would not be effective. Besides, he was already in the wrong about this matter...

So he directly carried Bonnie to the bed and put her to sleep with his body...

……

Before the end of March, after O2 Telecom acquired Optus, the Australian subsidiary of Liaison Telecom Group, for US$12 billion, they again acquired telecommunications company iiNet for A$10 billion (equivalent to about US$8 million).

Through the acquisition of the Australian subsidiary of Lijiapo Telecom Group, O2 Telecom successfully entered the Australian market. In this market, Optus is the second largest telecommunications operator after Telstra, and iiNet is a telecommunications operator that provides fixed broadband services to users. After completing the acquisition of these two companies, O2 Telecom has consolidated their broadband users in the Australian market.

And with its operating experience in Europe and North America, O2 Telecom will continue to upgrade the mobile communications and broadband networks of the two acquired companies in Australia, and begin to compete with other Australian telecommunications operators including Telstra through more favorable packages.

It can be said that Australia, which was once a place for European criminals to be exiled, does have unique advantages. After the European whites successfully turned the aborigines here into a "minority" through their traditional skills, they kept them in the reserve. The remaining residents, in this vast and sparsely populated land with rich resources, can live a high-quality life just by selling minerals.

"In the next few years, the Australian government will have a plan to build high-speed optical fiber. For this purpose, they will invest at least 300 billion Australian dollars to improve facilities within the country and build an ultra-high-speed optical fiber broadband network covering the whole country. We can also join this plan..."

Giorgio Lamson is the CEO of O2 Telecom Australia. Prior to that, he was an executive at the Australian subsidiary of the Lyft Telecom Group. At that time, as a telecommunications company with a monopoly in Australia, Telstra put great pressure on their development.

Now with the strong support of the parent company O2 Telecom, Giorgio has also become ambitious about the development of the Australian branch.

Prior to this, Telstra had a 45% share of Australia's mobile communications market, Optus had a 35% share, Vodafone Australia had a 15% share, and Hutchison had a 5% share. These four were the four largest mobile communications operators in Australia.

After Optus was merged into O2 Telecom, O2 Telecom's Australian branch added a large number of iiNet broadband users. Although it still has some distance to go compared with Telstra, it can already compete with it in the top two.

Of course, in the field of fixed communications, Telstra still has a great advantage. They occupy more than 80% of the fixed-line market share. Therefore, before this, Telstra was very overwhelming in the fixed-line and broadband fields.

However, we have now entered the era of high-speed fiber optics, and broadband companies such as TPG and iiNet are gradually developing in the broadband market.

Therefore, O2 Telecom Australia is currently able to compete for Telstra's user market through preferential family packages that combine broadband and mobile communications. As long as it can provide more cost-effective services, users will naturally understand how to choose.

As the dominant player in the Australian market, Telstra usually responds relatively slowly...

"Mr. Potter, I'm sorry to take up your time, but there is something I need to discuss with you."

In a cafe in Annapolis, the capital of Maryland, a tall blond beauty said to the slightly bald middle-aged white man in a suit sitting in front of her.

"It's my pleasure, Miss Kahn."

The woman in front of him at this moment, named Hedda Kahn, was not a simple person. She was the assistant to Ivanta TP, chairman of the well-known investment company IC Capital. Therefore, although he was a member of the Maryland Congress, Billy Porter was still very polite to Hedda. After all, when he participated in the congressional election, the committee funded by IC Capital also made a considerable donation to him.

Therefore, if he could give the other party some "rewards" within his ability, Billy Porter would be very happy. After all, these financial backers all need to be maintained.

"It's about a case, or really a case. As far as we know, the state attorney general, Mr. Harrington Porter, is investigating the accidental death of Mr. David Johnson, the former chairman of the Sinclair Group. Of course, Ms. TP doesn't want to interfere and is willing to provide help within her ability. But the only thing is that as a shareholder of the Sinclair Group, Ms. TP knows the importance of the group to Maryland. She doesn't want the normal operation of the group to be affected by some unfounded suspicions. Therefore, she hopes that before obtaining convincing evidence, the Sinclair Group will not become the center of public opinion due to some speculation."

"Ms. TP's concerns are indeed very reasonable, Ms. Kahn. I will pay attention to this matter and urge them not to act rashly."

Billy Porter would not directly inquire about the attorney general's work, but it was easy to convey the connection through some personal relationships.
