Furthermore, with the influence of Tiangong Technology, China will significantly shorten the time it takes to transform from a manufacturing giant into a manufacturing powerhouse.

...

Zhou Huicheng was extremely busy after the Canton Fair.

Orders for low-end CNC machine tools are pouring in, with the order booked until March or April of next year.

Tiangong Technology Company not only operates its factory in three shifts, but also built a new factory to produce machine tools.

At the same time, Zhou Huicheng also had to arrange for people to speed up the poaching of people from East Germany.

The situation between East and West Germany is currently quite delicate.

In particular, many people in East Germany longed for life in West Germany and wanted to escape from East Germany, including scientists and engineers from East Germany.

Tiangong Technology aims to intercept them and bring them to China before they flee East Germany.

The rapid development of precision machining technology at Tiangong Technology owes much to the contributions of these East Germans.

Time quickly passed to November 9, 1989.

On that day, the Berlin Wall was reached, and the residents of East Germany surged towards West Berlin and other parts of West Germany like a tidal wave...

Zhao Ye was watching the live broadcast on television at that moment, witnessing the great scene unfolding in Berlin.

He picked up his phone, his expression solemn, and called Zhou Huicheng.

After the call connected, Zhao Ye said in a deep voice, "President Zhou, you must have also received the news of the fall of the Berlin Wall. I predict that with the fall of the Berlin Wall, the opportunity for the reunification of East and West Germany is just around the corner, perhaps as early as next year! Therefore, we need to accelerate the recruitment of personnel, and further increase trade exports to East Germany to earn more East German marks! Whether East Zeiss can acquire West Zeiss depends on this!"

Zhou Huicheng was stunned when he heard this. He never expected that Zhao Ye would predict the unification of East and West Germany.

If East and West Germany were to truly reunify, then...

Zhou Huicheng suddenly remembered his boss's plan: to exchange US dollars for East German marks, and then promote trade between China and East Germany to earn East German marks.

Currently, the exchange rate between the West German mark and the East German mark is 1:4.

Could it be that the exchange rate will change after the reunification of East and West Germany?

That's right, that should be it!!

West Germany is now wealthier than East Germany. After German reunification, in order to stabilize the hearts of East Germans and help East Germany develop its economy, the government might provide welfare to the people of East Germany through exchange rate adjustments.

Perhaps... if the exchange rate between the West German mark and the East German mark became 1:1, the East German mark would appreciate fourfold!

Did the boss predict years ago that East and West Germany would be unified?

My goodness, the boss is absolutely amazing!

Even the most brilliant strategies can't compare to this!

That's truly admirable!

Zhou Huicheng clicked his tongue repeatedly, and for a moment he was amazed by his boss!

"Boss, don't worry, I know what to do," Zhou Huicheng replied.

"Okay, then I'm relieved. That's all for now, I'm hanging up." Zhao Ye smiled slightly and hung up the phone.

With the fall of the Berlin Wall, the signs of German reunification were already quite clear.

The United States and other Western countries also wanted to undermine their Soviet big brother.

At this time, the Soviet Union was preoccupied with its own problems and had no ability to prevent the reunification of Germany. In reality, the reunification of Germany was a process of West Germany annexing East Germany.

East Germany transitioned from socialism to capitalism.

“Most of the companies in East Germany were state-owned enterprises, but Wujiang Group earned a lot of East German marks in East Germany. When the two Germanys were reunified, the German government might have a headache about what to do with so many East German marks that Wujiang Group had…” Zhao Ye finished speaking and couldn’t help but laugh.

At this moment, Secretary Liu Yinyin walked in from outside the door and said, "Boss, the browser department just sent a message that they have developed the first version of the browser."

"Okay, I understand. I'll go there in a bit."

Zhao Ye tidied up the things on his desk and then headed to the browser department.

Because our offices are all in Lujiazui, they are very close to each other.

A short while later, Zhao Ye arrived at the browser department.

Tim Berners-Lee greeted Zhao Ye with a beaming smile, saying, "Boss, you've arrived! We've developed the browser according to your requirements. Please take a look!"

"good!"

Zhao Ye nodded at him.

After a while, Zhao Ye arrived at Tim Berners-Lee's office.

The browser has been packaged into a CD and can run on Shenzhou computers with a CD-ROM drive installed.

In the future, Wujiang Group will sell browsers, HarmonyOS operating system, and other products in the form of software CDs...

Optical discs are inexpensive but have a large capacity, exceeding 600 MB.

Soon, the browser was up and running.

Zhao Ye glanced at the interface, which had many useful functions, including those he had mentioned earlier: forward, back, refresh and reload, website bookmarks, and so on.

However, to Zhao Ye's great surprise, the browser's website was the official website of Wujiang Group, which introduced the group's development history and products. The World Wide Web was, of course, also a product of Wujiang Group, and Tim Berners-Lee had placed it in the most prominent position so that people could learn about the World Wide Web while learning about Wujiang Group.

"I hadn't even reminded Tim Berners-Lee to register the domain name, and he'd already done it himself. In other words,..."

A website is a website, and a domain name is a domain name; the world's first domain name...

Symbolics was registered on March 15, 1985. However, the first domain name was useless because others could not access it. But the world's first website was of extraordinary significance. If this website could be scaled up and strengthened, it would be worth a fortune when Internet concept stocks rise in the future.
