Chapter 648 Another Village in the Dark Willows and Blossoms (4K Chapters)

Wu Qian and Yao Zhaofeng watched Yao Xinlu leave the living room in a hurry, and the moment the door was closed, the whole living room fell into a wordless silence.

It was Yao Zhaofeng who broke the silence, and he said earnestly: "Mr. Wu, you are not yet a father, so you probably don't understand my worries. Lulu is very capable and has a wonderful future of her own, but as a parent, of course you have to give She provides solid backing."

A 350% stake in a company with a market value of 20.00 billion is worth close to [-] billion. This dowry is not insignificant.

If any poor boy can marry Yao Xinlu, it will really save a lifetime of struggle...

Unfortunately, such a story has a high probability of not happening in reality.

Wu Qian can fully understand Yao Zhaofeng's original intention, and he can't force it on this matter, so he can only change his mind.

"Mr. Yao, I understand very well, and I also understand your thoughts very well. If... I exchange some shares of Thames Water Company and Manchester United Club with you, do you think it will work?"

Wu Qian's eyes were sincere and piercing.

According to his thinking, although the market value of his company in Beijing is not low now, compared with companies with decades of history, it is still a little immature in terms of qualifications, but the qualifications of Thames Water Company and Manchester United Club are definitely enough.

Yao Zhaofeng muttered in his heart, you understand what a fart!
How can the father not understand what the daughter is thinking, from Yao Xinlu's series of behaviors, Yao Zhaofeng has already seen that his daughter is in love with the boy in front of him.

The dowry statement is thorough enough, but the other party didn't say anything at all, even if you think about it, this matter is very difficult to handle.

"It's good to understand, it's good to understand..." Yao Zhaofeng said softly, and the sex dropped to freezing point.

Seeing Yao Zhaofeng's slightly frowned brows and distressed expression, Wu Qian was shocked in his heart, and later realized that the message conveyed by Yao Zhaofeng's words was not that simple!
He only saw the surface, but did not discover the deep meaning of the word "dowry".

"Is this implying that I should marry Yao Xinlu?" Wu Qian was surprised.

Asking himself, Wu Qian thinks that Yao Xinlu is good enough, and she handles business affairs impeccably, which saves me a lot of worry. Her appearance, figure, knowledge, and education are all superior, and she is not much worse than those ladies who attended the ball. It's just family background.

But maybe the two are too respectful to each other as guests, but lack the feeling of electric shock.

Besides, Wu Qian didn't know what Yao Xinlu was thinking, and it would be unknown if Yao Zhaofeng was just pushing the flames. Marriage is too common in the circle of rich people.

Not to mention far away, isn't Krasha in the kingdom of heaven the "tool" of the Sergei family?

This is the reality. The tens of billions of dowry that ordinary people can't ask for in a lifetime is not attractive in the eyes of some people who can reach it.

At this time, Yao Xinlu walked gently into the living room with a glass of water.

After Wu Qian tried to understand the meaning of Yao Zhaofeng's words, he felt that it would be impossible to continue the conversation, so he got up and said goodbye politely.

When they were leaving, Wu Qian and Yao Xinlu looked at each other, hesitated to speak.

In the next few days, Wu Qian did not go to the company. While learning about the frontline situation of Solan Kingdom from David, he made many detailed plans around the development of Bai Peila, and some of them have already begun to be implemented.

On the afternoon of the third day after meeting Yao Zhaofeng, Wu Qian was sitting in the study of the villa. On the computer screen, he could see that a remote conference was being held.

What Wu Qian wants to do in the future is to build a city at a small scale, and to develop a whole country driven by a city. No one has ever done such a thing.

A group of think tank executives expressed their opinions and provided suggestions and solutions through their own knowledge.

Fortunately, a city is being created from scratch, and it will be even more difficult to transform it.

Bai Peila, who is so barren and so barren, is like a blank sheet of paper, allowing Wu Qian to splash ink and paint.

The most important prerequisites for building a city are water and electricity. Without these, people will not be able to stay, and there is no need to talk about construction and development.

The water conservancy project is directly undertaken by the Thames Water Company, and technical and engineering personnel are dispatched. In the early stage, it only needs to construct a water conservancy project for a city, and the scale is relatively small.

In addition, Solan has a long coastline, and this unique advantage greatly reduces the cost of seawater transportation after desalination.

Although Thames Water is not solely owned by Wu Qian, his shareholding ratio is too high. In addition, the investment this time is solely funded by Wu Qian, which does not affect the shareholding structure. Other shareholders basically have no opinions. use……

Wu Qian also adopted the proposal of Thames Water's technical executives to build a desalination laboratory near Baipela, hoping to further reduce costs.

The water problem is arranged, and the electricity is next.

Today's mainstream power generation methods worldwide are nothing more than thermal power, hydropower, nuclear power, wind power, and other new energy sources such as geothermal, tidal, and solar power.

Each power generation method has its own advantages and disadvantages. When choosing, Wu Qian struggled with a group of think tanks for a long time.

Thermal power generation is the oldest power generation method. It has obvious advantages and disadvantages. Low cost and mature technology are the biggest advantages. However, low thermal energy utilization rate and pollutants are always big problems that cannot be avoided, and there is no prospect of sustainable development.

Hydroelectric power generation has extremely high requirements on the geographical environment. It needs complex terrain, abundant water resources, and it also needs to be able to form a large drop. The larger the drop, the greater the power generation. These conditions are not available in Solan...

Due to technical bottlenecks and potential safety hazards in nuclear power generation, Wu Qian did not take it into consideration at all, unless he could attract active investment in this area, but unfortunately not.

As for those seemingly high-end new energy power generation methods, due to various reasons, they were excluded one by one.

In the end, after comprehensive consideration of many factors, it was decided to promote wind power generation in Solan.

Wind power generation has obvious advantages such as low cost and no pollution. The only disadvantage is that it has uncertain factors. The natural resource of wind sometimes disappears.

However, for the coastline of Solan Kingdom, which is blown by sea breeze 360 ​​degrees without dead ends, the only uncertain factor of wind power generation no longer exists.

Purchasing wind power generation related equipment is a big expenditure item, but as mentioned in the initial arrangement, we only want to use it in the initial stage, not the best.

Wu Qian successively contacted some countries with very advanced wind power generation, such as China, Germany, Spain, the United Kingdom, and France, and learned that there are indeed many old wind power generation equipment that are about to be retired.

He intends to immediately purchase wind power generation equipment from all over the world and transport it to Solan to build a wind power station after the situation in Solan is initially determined.

As for the construction of the power network, Kureta said that he can help. He will use his personal connections to invite a group of Maoziguo power-related professionals and infrastructure workers to assist in the construction.

After the two basic problems of water and electricity are solved, gas, roads and communications will come.

Africa has very rich natural gas producing countries, but unfortunately, neither Nigeria nor Eki is close to the country of Solan. In addition, in the early stage, the amount of gas consumption will not be too large. If the pipeline is laid, it will cost time and money. The investment is out of proportion to the effect, so there is no need to make a big fuss.

After consulting some professionals, Wu Qian decided to initially import liquefied natural gas by sea to meet the demand. Fortunately, Solan is not far from Qatar, the world's largest producer of liquefied natural gas. Even if it is shipped by sea, the cost will not be very high. high.

In this regard, Wu Qian plans to go to the UK in a few days to talk to Hammerkar, who he knew when he bought Harrods. He believes that the problem is not big, and maybe he can get a small discount.

As for roads and communication, if electricity can be guaranteed, then communication will also be improved, and roads need to be planned according to actual conditions.

In more than two days, Wu Qian's plan was not only as simple as the "five links", but also other aspects such as medical care and education. International organizations have also replied, promising to organize a humanitarian rescue team to Solan in the near future. .

Relying on aid alone for basic education and medical care is definitely not a long-term solution. Medical care and education must be formed as soon as possible.

Now that the situation is not clear, it is not suitable to recruit people in the medical department or model colleges. Once the situation stabilizes, wave money to recruit fresh graduates in relevant colleges, and the scale can be formed in minutes.

"Let's stop here today. I'll take a rest for the plane at night. If you have anything to do, please contact Rosalind. In addition, the development of Bai Peila can be kept as secret as possible for the time being, remember."

The desk was full of all kinds of documents, Wu Qian pulled the document paper, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said to the microphone.

Several people in the video nodded one after another. It should be that no one dares to publicize this kind of thing everywhere. Even if Boss Wu doesn't say it, they don't dare to spread it. It is still quite ethical to become a high-level executive.

Wu Qian nodded, then hung up the multi-party video, turned his neck, and said, "Lu Hao, how is the aspect you are in charge of?"

Lu Hao's guess at the beginning was not bad at all. What Mr. Wu said was more challenging, and he really let him be responsible for part of the development of Bai Peila.

Wu Qian handed over the supply of various main materials needed for infrastructure construction, such as steel, wood, cement, brick, tile, ash, sand, stone, etc., to Lu Hao.

In the past two days, Lu Hao's rest time did not exceed eight hours, and he contacted infrastructure professionals, material suppliers, and various factories everywhere, and his eyes were red.

Hearing Wu Qian's question, Lu Hao said in a hoarse voice: "Back to Mr. Wu, cement, sand, bricks and other building materials without too much high-tech content, I have calculated that the most suitable solution is directly The Lanjian factory is put into production, which is much cheaper than importing by sea..."

Lu Hao announced the plans made in the past two days one by one. Wu Qian and Rosalind listened carefully. If there was anything inappropriate, the two would question it. Generally speaking, the problem is not big.

"Basically in line with our initial expectations. Yes, it can really help, come on."

Wu Qian patted Lu Hao's shoulder with a smile.

Dong dong, there was a light knock on the door, and Luo Xiaxin walked into the study with a tray, followed by a thick fragrance.

"You guys are tired, let's have a bowl of chicken soup first."

In the morning, Luo Xiaxin returned to the capital and brought back a few frozen chickens from his hometown in Hong Kong. They were authentic rural chickens raised at home.

Luo Xiaxin didn't know what Wu Qian and his group were doing in the study all day long, so she didn't ask Cooks and Ball, because if she could help, Wu Qian would definitely say that since she didn't say it, she just didn't want her to intervene .

Luo Xiaxin put several porcelain bowls on the huge desk, the orange chicken soup was very tempting.

Wu Qian took a sip from the bowl and said with a smile, "It's delicious, Xinxin. I didn't know you had this skill before. By the way, Harold and Manchester United have sent invitation letters, and I'll send them to your mailbox later. Print it yourself."

Luo Xiaxin's going abroad is not as convenient as Wu Qian's. If it takes a certain amount of time to go through the formalities according to the procedures, Wu Qian simply asked his overseas company to issue an invitation letter, and it was easy to enter the country.

After all, Wu Qian took out his mobile phone to send an email. When he turned on the mobile phone, he found that there was a short message that he had not checked.

If it's just a messy service number, Wu Qian usually deletes it without looking at it at all, but this one is different. It's a text message from a contact, showing Yao Xinlu.

Wu Qian raised his eyebrows, clicked on the message, and there were only seven short words.

"Call me when you have time."

Wu Qian glanced at the time of the text message, and found that it was lunch time. He turned off the message and sent an email to Luo Xiaxin while walking out of the study.

Although the information did not mention specific things, according to Wu Qian's understanding of Yao Xinlu, if there is no important matter, he will not take the initiative to contact her.

He went downstairs to the yard and dialed Yao Xinlu's number.

"I didn't pay attention to the mobile phone at the beginning, General Manager Yao, what's the matter?" The call was connected quickly, and Wu Qian asked with a smile.

"Wu Qian, have you settled on the matter of the Shipping Group?" Yao Xinlu asked.

"Not yet." Wu Qian replied truthfully. He has been preparing for other affairs in the past two days, and the matter of the Shipping Group is put aside for now.

Small companies look down on them, and big groups can't buy them, so they can only take one step at a time.

Yao Xinlu was silent on the other end of the phone for a while, and said, "If you say that Qiming Shipping Group's 70.00% four shares offer a price of 300 billion yuan, would you accept it?"

The news came very suddenly. Being able to own more than half of the shares basically has the right to speak, and the price is also suitable. There is nothing unacceptable.

According to the normal valuation calculation, 70.00% of the shares of the four should be 260 billion, but if the calculation is a reasonable premium, then 300 billion is not expensive.

After doing the calculations, Wu Qian understood that the remaining part of the shares was still in the hands of Yao Xinlu's father.

"As long as I have the ships and crew at my disposal, there is no problem with the price!"

"Then come to the company now, I'll wait for you here."

After finishing speaking, Yao Xinlu hung up the phone first.

Why did things take such a big turn, Wu Qian didn't think much about it, it didn't matter whether the plane could catch up, and rushed towards the company in a hurry.

　I have a headache every day, and I feel uncomfortable at home, and I have to persist, so hard!
