One Piece: Thunder Angel

Chapter 173

Haiyuan calendar 1521, October 10th.

After the World Summit was held last year, the first WTO ministerial meeting was held in Apajado, and it has been exactly one year.

The WTO proposed by Arthur is basically a copy of the rules in this world.

It’s just that the WTO ministerial meeting, which was originally held at least once every two years, has been changed to be held again in a year’s time as long as more than 30 countries agree.

It just happens that the WTO has just been established, and all countries need close meetings and discussions, so the second ministerial conference will be held again only in the second year.

The WTO Ministerial Conference is similar to the World Summit, but the number of the Ministerial Conference is obviously larger. Basically, all participating countries must have a representative representative to attend the conference.

Unlike the World Summit, only about fifty kings participated.

In one week, the WTO Ministerial Conference on trade was almost done to the end.

This is just the beginning, and many things are in the initial establishment and exploration. After a few years, the foundation has been almost laid, and this ministerial meeting will only take about three days.

After all, the ministerial meeting is used to discuss more important matters, not trivial matters. As long as the ministers determine the general direction, there will be second and third-level meetings to discuss and resolve the rest.

————————————————

“Three nets plan?” All the representatives of the participating countries, as well as the representatives of a few non-participating countries who participated in the ministerial meeting for the first time, looked at the head of the Angel Empire with suspicion.

“What does the “Three Nets Project” mean?” A country representative asked.

Geer said: “The so-called three networks are power grids, communication networks, and the Internet.”

People are thinking about these three words, but they still can’t react very much for a while.

They can understand this power grid.

Because basically every country, at least the country is connected to electricity. In the capital of the country, the people who live are high-ranking officials, nobles, wealthy businessmen, and so on.

But the communication network behind, the Internet makes them very confused.

“Does the communication network use telephone worms to establish a network?” someone smarter asked.

It’s just that his thoughts are firmly bound by this world.

Phone worm, this thing has been used for many years. When it comes to communication, everyone thinks of phone bugs or letters.

“No! The so-called communication network is a mobile terminal specially researched by the scientific researchers of our Angel Empire. With the signal base station, a mobile terminal can be used to call and send messages to different people.” Geer shook his head, his face Explanation with a smile.

The representatives of various countries looked blank, ‘what is a mobile terminal? What is a signal base station? ’No one understands these two new terms.

Geer knew from the expressions of these people that everyone didn’t understand, so he didn’t stop after speaking, but continued.

“The so-called mobile terminal is like a phone worm, which can carry a mobile signal receiving and transmitting device. This device can be used to make calls, send messages, and even video conversations. In other words, with a mobile terminal, it can be thousands of kilometers away. Look at each other talking.”

“What? What kind of mobile terminal is so powerful? It can also have video conversations? I thought it was no different from a phone worm.” Someone responded quickly and exclaimed, and then the conference hall was full of surprises.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Yes, through a small screen, the other party’s audio and video can be transmitted thousands of kilometers away, real-time, or recorded, for long-distance communication. Of course, the current functions are far more than that! But the three-network plan has not yet been officially announced. Start, so I can’t explain it in detail yet.”

“As for the signal base station, it is a transmitting station for signal interchange and transmission that will be established in every State Construction Project.”

After Geer explained the two terms, everyone almost understood. But the Internet, they still don’t understand what it is.

“What about the Internet? What is the Internet?” someone asked.

“The so-called Internet, also known as the international network, belongs to the field of media. It refers to the huge network that is connected between the network and the network. These networks are connected by a set of common protocols to form a logically single huge international network.”

“This network and the communication network are interdependent, but they are not exactly the same. It is a network that connects the computer networks to each other after the computers currently used by scientists are civilianized. It can be called “network interconnection.”

“On this basis, a global Internet covering the whole world has been developed, called the Internet, which is a network structure connected to each other.”

This time is different from the power grid and the communication network. After Geer finished speaking, the scene was calm. They could understand a single word of what Gehr said, but after composing this paragraph, they were surprised to find that they were very confused.

“You can ask questions, and I will answer them one by one.” Geer smiled.

There was silence for a while before someone raised their hands and started asking questions. After half an hour, these people barely understood what the Internet is.

However, even though they understood, they didn’t have any ideas. Even if it is a communication network, they don’t think it is necessary to establish it, after all, the phone worm is enough.

Mobile terminals only make them feel fresh when they can make video calls. However, this function is not very necessary for them. And the main reason is that it doesn’t look like it can be easily established or cost-free.

And the power grid, they don’t have that big idea.

Anyway, if I live in the country, I can still use electricity. This power grid is said to be spread all over the country, but what does it mean for them?

For ordinary people, candle oil lamps are enough, and there is no need to build a power grid for them.

Seeing that everyone was lacking in interest in the triple play plan, Gehr exhaled a bit embarrassed. Although not many people care about these things, Geer did not expect that nobody cares at all.

Geer thought about it, that’s okay. At that time Arthur told him about the Three Networks plan and told him that each country could only give 10% of the profit.

Even in the face of the god he most admired and admired, Geer refuted it directly for the first time in a rare occurrence.

In his opinion, with the establishment of these three networks and the beginning of universal charging, the profits of each country are probably quite terrible.

In the face of this kind of profit, what is the use even if God is the world’s top powerhouse? It is impossible for those countries to give up such huge profits.

Now these people don’t care, and they can use their attitude. After they are unwilling to undertake the investment, the construction of these three networks can be completely responsible for the angel empire, but afterwards they only give them 10% of the income, and they still don’t remove the capital.

In other words, after removing the capital, even one Chengdu is gone.

Presumably, when the time comes to know that the profit is so high, there is absolutely no way they can do it even if they don’t want it.

After reorganizing the speech, Geer continued to talk to these people about the three-net plan, inviting countries to participate and investing funds.

The amount of investment is determined according to each country’s land area, the number of citizens, the number of towns, and the number of villages and towns.

Because in this world, Bailey’s value is not very high. Just a newspaper costs ten Baileys, so if you want to build these three networks, even in the smallest country, the investment is tens of billions.

As soon as this investment fund said, the representatives of all countries were in an uproar. Tens of billions of Baileys! ? And this is just a preliminary rough estimate for the smallest country!

Speaking of which, if you want to really do it, some of these countries have even invested hundreds of billions of dollars!

This kind of investment is impossible for them to agree to.

In fact, if Arthur hadn’t had his own plan, coupled with the growing pool of funds, in this situation, a large amount of funds from the whole world would be gathered in the Angel Empire. The money can’t be spent for a while, it’s a waste of resources, and Arthur wouldn’t do such a thing.

Now, he also makes early deployment. Anyway, robots are used as workers, this labor cost can be saved, and it is also efficient and fast, and the quality is guaranteed.

Even if these countries didn’t vote for anything, Arthur had to build it. Mastering the power grid, the communication network, and the Internet, to a certain extent, is equivalent to mastering the whole world.

When they become lazy about these things, Arthur can easily control the world!

Rather than fighting, fighting, and fighting the world government, it is better to take the main arteries of the world in your hands.

Originally, there was no intention to allow these countries to invest, and Geer changed his statement. After discussing with the kings of their respective countries, the representatives of these countries basically agreed with the three nets plan.

Once the achievement is 10%, they don’t think it can make any money anyway. Moreover, even if the other party takes away 90% of this kind of investment and construction for the whole world, it is estimated that it will take years to recover the cost.

When the world didn’t understand these three kinds of networks at all, Arthur had the opportunity to grasp such an important weapon.

At the end of October, the meeting ended, and the triple play plan was successfully accepted by all participating countries.

They didn’t expect that they would regret death and death within a few years, but now they all looked happy. Such a huge project, stone, steel, sand, even if the profit is extremely low, but it can’t hold up a large amount.

They don’t have to worry about anything, not only can they make a fortune, but they can also have an income after it is built. Although I don’t think there will be much, it is better than nothing!

As a result, all the representatives of the country took the other side’s brains and we left with a smile on the face of taking advantage of it.

However, they did not think about why the person in charge of the Angel Empire also smiled and took advantage. .
