Chapter 907 908 Lack of Power
Chen Fan reached out his hand to take out the phone from his pocket, rummaged through the phone number and dialed it directly.

It was rare for Zhang Quan to be free during this time, and the higher-ups seemed to consider that he had been dealing with business related to Chen Fan for a long time, so he had not arranged other work for him.

In the past few days, he has not received a call from Chen Fan, but occasionally Xie Kai or Li Yihong will call him to get some information from him.

Originally, he should have rejected these things. After all, it is not a company. The information collected by Oaktree Capital should give you extraordinary investment.

However, as a well-rounded person, he certainly wouldn't do such stupid things, not to mention that Chen Fan had told him before that sometimes he would help out.

Chen Fan is one of the shareholders of the company, so naturally he cannot be offended.

Sitting on the office chair, bored, flipping through the mine-digging game that came with the computer, suddenly the mobile phone on the table rang, Zhang Quan took the mobile phone in his hand, looked surprised, and quickly picked up the phone .

"Hey, Mr. Chen, I have time now. You mean to pay attention to Omi Technology Industry Company. Is anyone planning to invest in Bitcoin? Well, I will contact you right away and let them check, but Mr. Chen, Omi Market Technology Company Quite a few, if some small and medium-sized companies or individuals do business in this area, I may not be able to do it here. After all, the scope of our intelligence collection cannot completely cover the entire market. Okay, I know, and I will do my best. "

After putting down the phone, Zhang Quan sat there in a daze for a while, during which time he gradually cleared his mind.

The previous call was made by Chen Fan, asking him to pay attention to those technology companies in the Omega market, to see if they have plans to enter the Bitcoin market recently.

To be honest, this matter is more troublesome.

If it is a well-known technology company in the market, if they formulate a new development strategy to enter the Bitcoin market, it is relatively easy to detect the news.

But the trouble is that there are too many technology companies in the Omi market, large and small, and now the garage culture is popular in the United States, and a large number of new start-up companies continue to pop out of the garage. Before they seek financing, There is no way of knowing exactly what projects they are working on.

For these start-up companies, it is definitely impossible to collect them. They may not even be registered, so it is definitely unrealistic to search from the source, but Zhang Quan also thinks that there is no way. In his opinion, maybe two If the channel is under control, it is possible for others to know the news first.

As an Internet company, it naturally needs a network, so the first thing is to see if it can get news from more than a dozen companies in the United States that provide Internet services.

The second is a venture capital company. If it is a grassroots start-up, it will naturally seek financing after making certain achievements.

According to Chen Fan, Zhang Quan feels that in order to build such a trading website, he needs at least a decent server, at least tens of thousands of dollars, which may be nothing to ordinary people, but to grassroots, that is Big problem.

Of course, the Internet, especially the currency circle forum is also an important channel for collecting information. After all, it is used for bitcoin transactions, so it is natural to post advertisements in relevant forums.

Zhang Quan began to plan what to do next, and after Chen Fan put down the phone, he said to Zheng Xiaopang: "Let's go, the next thing is to wait for news from Zhang Quan."

"Do you think other people will come to this trading platform?"

Zheng Xiaopang followed behind Chen Fan and asked.

"Who knows? I'll call Li Yihong in the car later and ask him to build the website quickly."

Chen Fan didn't turn his head, but slowed down a little and said, "I feel that it is not difficult to build a trading website. I remember hearing Lao Li say that for those who have similar experience in building a website, building a trading website is really easy. It's not difficult, the threshold for this industry is very low.

In fact, after the platform is built, it can be improved as it is done later, as long as the server can be obtained in the early stage.

However, he felt that the initial transaction volume was small, and he didn’t need a good server to meet the needs of customers, so he planned to use the company’s original servers at the beginning, and did not plan to purchase new ones.”

The two quickly went downstairs, got into the small car waiting in front of the gate, and drove away.

"It's here."

After getting off the car, Chen Fan said to Huang Tian, ​​in front of them was that not-so-big warehouse, and now it was their mining factory.

Xiao Chen, a technician who came from Shencheng, was standing at the door. When he saw Chen Fan and Zheng Xiaopang get off the car, he hurried over.

"Hello, Mr. Chen, Mr. Zheng."

There were three people who got out of the car, but he only knew Chen Fan and Zheng Xiaopang, and knew that they were the bosses of the company.

"This is Huang Tian, ​​our partner, bring him over today to have a look."

Chen Fan introduced it to him.

"Hello, Mr. Huang."

Xiao Chen hurriedly said with a smile.

"Hello."

Huang Tian is a little reserved at the moment, to be honest, it seems that no one has ever called him that.

"This is Chen Gong, an engineer transferred from Shanghai, and the actual person in charge of the project."

Chen Fan also introduced to Huang Tian at this time, "In the future, you will have to listen to him for technical matters, he is the professional."

Huang Tian nodded at the side. The three of them chatted for a while in the car earlier. Chen Fan saw that he really wanted to find something to do, so he left the mine to him. Just come and see it every day.

In fact, Huang Tian called him again last night, saying that he wanted to find something to do.

Chen Fan discussed with Zheng Xiaopang in the morning, and decided to hand over the mine to him, after all, as long as it is in operation, nothing will happen.

Chen Fan and Zheng Xiaopang came here today to actually bring Huang Tian to see, and by the way, leave the trouble to him, let him take over and deal with it first.

It should be said that the project at the mining factory is progressing well. A group of equipment installation has been completed, and a total of 2 mining machines have been installed.

The telecommunications company has also brought in broadband and dedicated lines, and now the problem of accessing the Internet here has also been solved.

But the last problem also appeared, which made the mine unable to start trial operation for a long time, that is, there was no electricity.

This is a water plant, which actually has a power supply, but which water plant will install so many electrical equipment, 2 mining machines, and will grow to a scale of 1 in the future. The original power supply line is definitely not enough Yes, as long as it is turned on, it will definitely trip.

Although I have already contacted the power grid and pulled a new wire, it seems that there are some tricks in it, so the line has not yet started construction. The people from the power grid company have come twice, so it is considered that the line has been planned.

A few people walked into the warehouse, which should be called the computer room now. There are two rows of shelves on one side of the large warehouse, on which are neatly placed computer cases, densely connected with each other.

"It turned out that the wires of the power plant were so thin that they didn't dare to start the machine at all."

Xiao Chen stood beside them and explained in a low voice.

"Who is the docking person? I'll go and have a look in a while."

Huang Tian already knew what this place was for when he was in the car. Just now, according to Mr. Chen's introduction, a set of equipment had been installed, but he was stumped by the electric tiger. Right now, all he was thinking about was finding Can anyone help me and get this matter resolved as soon as possible.

After walking around in the computer room, Chen Fan smiled at Huang Tian, ​​"You know, I brought you here today to give you a problem, and solve the power supply problem as soon as possible."

"Haven't you found anyone before?"

Huang Tian asked.

"Such a small matter, is it worth our shot?"

Zheng Xiaopang brushed his presence aside.

"It's a small matter. We'll go back to the city right now. I'll find someone to deal with it. I'll install the wires tomorrow."

Huang Tian didn't care about Zheng Xiaopang's words, but said to Chen Fan.

He had already figured out who to look for before, although this place does not belong to the imperial capital, but the territory of Beihe Province, but here he can still find someone to intervene, it's not that he won't give money, let them pull a wire, how big is it? thing.

In fact, Chen Fan only found out about the power supply line in the morning. They contacted Xie Kai only after discussing to let Huang Tian come here, and it was only from Xie Kai that they found out that the power supply line here has not been arranged.

The power grid company is not saying that it will not install it, but it means that the manpower cannot be arranged, so let's wait.

Naturally, Xie Kai didn't have to deal with such a small matter, it was left to the people below to handle it, and it ended up being delayed until now.

It's all over now, just leave it to Huang Tian to deal with. He has a lot of friends in the imperial capital, so he should be able to find a way out.

On the car back to the city, Chen Fan explained some matters that Huang Tian needed to pay attention to.

After Chen Fan explained the matter here, he had just picked up his own water, but Zheng Xiaopang, who hadn't said much, suddenly asked, "Are you planning to go to Shanghai?"

"Well, that's what it means."

Chen Fan still took a sip of water before replying: "You reminded me, although I haven't heard from Zhang Quan yet, I'm not afraid of [-] or just in case, so I'll go and keep an eye on it.

The system setup over there seems to be about the same, and I have to rush to carry out the stress test as soon as possible. Although the transaction volume may not be large at the beginning, it is always good to make more preparations. "

"Do you need me to follow?"

Zheng Xiaopang asked again.

"It doesn't matter. If you stay here, you should focus on the stock market. Those wine stocks will attract money on dips, and try to collect more bitcoins without alarming the enemy."

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and continued: "Here, Huang Tian has solved the power supply issue, and you all focus on testing as soon as possible and starting up the already installed units.

I remember that the device was only running for a few 10 minutes last time, so I can test it for a while longer this time.

In addition, Mr. Chen also said earlier that using the management software, the entire unit will run for a few hours first, and then some equipment will be shut down. Anyway, the meaning is to test as much as possible.

I thought, if thousands of devices are all started up in the future, it would be impossible without that management software.

At least if something in the equipment is broken, it can be checked immediately and repaired at any time.

In addition, the power consumption of our thing is a bit high, and we have to adjust the number of machines we start from time to time according to the change of computing power, all of which must be taken into consideration.

We can’t cover all the production of bitcoins. If that’s the case, our money is probably in vain. Because others can’t dig it, they will definitely feel that there is something tricky in it, and they will run away sooner or later.

This bitcoin, I thought, can only be maintained and expanded by the effect of making money. Money is a good thing, but we can’t earn it all, so we can get some money out. "

"Huang Tian, ​​remember, call me during the test here, let's watch together."

Zheng Xiaopang smiled and said to Huang Tian.

"Well, okay, I will keep an eye on this side. I have Mr. Chen's phone number, and I will keep in touch with him."

Huang Tian nodded, he just came in now, so he didn't plan to talk too much, listening more and watching more is his current style, "I'll find someone to deal with the power supply issue when I return to the city, and it will be resolved within two days, you guys Don't worry."

Regarding the first mission, Huang Tian was still very confident.

Back in the city, send Huang Tian back first. After all, he didn't drive by himself today, he came here by car. I also learned from the chat later that the water plant where the computer room is located is the asset of the Utilities Department under Chaofan Investment, which is themselves. Huang Tian gave him a thumbs up.

"According to your point of view, it's just a useless warehouse. You have to calculate the rent for us as a computer room, so there's no one else."

Hearing that the lease of the factory building needs to be calculated separately, Huang Tian's eyes widened.

"Waste utilization is still valuable. Besides, if you don't do it there, it won't cost you to rent a space outside."

Zheng Xiaopang gave Huang Tian a blank look at that time.

Chen Fan still followed Zheng Xiaopang to his house for dinner, and he didn't bother to start a fire at home.

After getting off the car, let Li Wu and the others go back. Anyway, here in Baorun Hot Spring Garden, safety is guaranteed.

After dinner, the two sat on the sofa and chatted about Southern Investment Group's investment in the United States. The latest news is that one of the remaining two acquisition projects of the Southern Investment Group in the United States succeeded, and the other failed.

Now the aftermath of Enron's bankruptcy has basically calmed down, and the battle for high-quality assets is coming to an end.

"The southern side will definitely not continue to sell assets. Not to mention, the projects they released at the beginning were still very profitable."

Zheng Xiaopang recalled the news he had read in the morning, and said casually what he knew about the profitability of the projects he had acquired.

"It's not bad. I've set up a shelf of assets around the imperial capital. Hey, I just don't know that Mr. Mu has just lost the Jingtang Port project. I guess I haven't spent all the money on hand. Will I regret selling that project?"

Chen Fan said cheerfully.

"The people in the project department over there have already negotiated with several large groups about the bulk cargo terminal. If the negotiation is successful, the port will just wait to collect money in the future. Coal, ore, hehe, and they spent a lot of money before. The land that was approved by Jin Jin should have been planned by them before."

Zheng Xiaopang laughed.

"Yes, it was planned a long time ago. When the land at Tianjinmen Port was tight, they were unwilling to grant so much land to them. That's why the Jingtang Port project came into being. Otherwise, why would you plan a port if you thought it was so close to each other? The port, traffic is also one of the reasons.”

Chen Fan stretched his waist and said, "Okay, I won't delay you two, I'll go back first."

After talking, Chen Fan got up, greeted Xie Xiaomeng and went home.
