Ants exploded, I opened a power plant to supply power to the world

Chapter 188 Chapter 187 Tongyi Binhai's revenue soared! Reached billion in one month!
In Binhai, inside the official Development and Reform Office Building, staff from the Legal Department of Zhetong Electric Power and other departments were submitting relevant information. Lin Zhe himself even appeared on the scene.

This time he was going to do something big.

Zhetong Electric Power had already submitted the procedures for this matter several months ago, and now it has finally entered the final stage.

Including the formalities in Beijing have been completed. Lin Zhe is taking a step towards building the prototype of Zhetong Power's future power grid, which is to take advantage of the new energy vehicle boom to expand Zhetong's new energy charging stations across the country.

Even if this matter is accomplished, it will not have any impact for the time being, at most it will make the revenue increase in Zhetong Electric Power's financial report look better.

However, Lin Zhe pays more attention to the representative significance behind this. If all new energy vehicle drivers across the country charge their vehicles at Zhetong Power's new energy charging stations other than at home, then the four words "Zhetong Power" will be engraved in people's minds.

And the most crucial step is that Lin Zhe does not plan to "build" a temporary small power plant in one of these new energy charging stations, but plans to do it through power transmission.

That is to say, within a certain area, Zhetong Power will invest in building a power plant to supply power to several or even dozens of charging stations.

When the time is ripe, it will be Zhetong Electric Power's local power plants one after another, and the circuits are also in line with Lin Zhe's own plan, which is to lay out across the country and finally interweave into a huge power grid, which will benefit not only cities but also thousands of villages.

Although Zhetong Power now has the ability to deploy a small power plant in a city, or even a small power plant in a charging station, and it would be more cost-effective, Lin Zhe just wants to spend more money to do more.

There are more than 600,000 administrative villages and more than 2.6 million natural villages on this ancient land.

In this environment of privatized electricity, most administrative villages can still use electricity from time to time through various means, but most of the more than 2.6 million natural villages are the same as the original Songjiakan Village.

Before Zhetong Power arrived, there was no electricity supply there, which made life inconvenient and productivity could not be improved. Lin Zhe wanted every household to use the environmentally friendly electricity from Zhetong!
……

So now, sitting in the official office building, Lin Zhe's legs shook habitually. This would happen when something big happened and Lin Zhe was nervous. When he was in school, he was often complained about by the female classmates around him because of this.

"Lin Zhe, can you please stop shaking your legs? You're about to break my table apart~"

In a trance, Lin Zhe did not think about the procedure this time, but thought of some things that happened when he was in school. There is one thing in common, that is, no matter rich or poor, people like to reminisce the past, especially when they were in school.

……

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin?"

Lin Zhe came back to his senses after hearing the shouting beside him. The procedural approval had come down, and the branch in Binhai had also received accurate information from the capital. As for the specific results, Lin Zhe had to go there in person.

After nodding slightly, Lin Zhe stood up and then came to the office under the guidance of Zhang Yuliang and official staff.

"Congratulations, Mr. Lin. The approval from the capital has come down. We in Binhai can stamp it for you without any worries."

After saying this, Lin Zhe also showed a look of joy, watching the staff stamp the red official seal on the document of Zhetong Electric Power.

At this point, it is legal and compliant for Zhetong Power to open new energy charging stations across the country, and it only needs to comply with local procedures.

Unlike the new energy charging station in Quanhe, that is an approval within the local area, and it is not a permission for the company, but only a permission for the existence of a new energy charging station on that piece of land.

This time, Zhetong Electric Power Group successfully obtained the license, and Lin Zhe excitedly shook hands with the staff to express his gratitude.

……

In three months, Zhetong Electric Power has made steady progress in the Binhai market, and civilian electricity users have continued to flow to Zhetong Electric Power. As Zhetong Electric Power's performance has soared, companies like Wentai Electric Power are struggling.

They are caught in a vicious circle: as users flow to Zhetong Electric Power, their revenue will decrease, but the boss is reluctant to pay out of his own pocket to make up for the shortfall, so they can only lay off employees or reduce service quality to control costs.

Then the user experience becomes worse as the service degrades, and then more users churn.

It's like a hole on a big ship. If it is not filled as soon as it appears, the gap will only get bigger and bigger until it gets out of control.

Currently in the Binhai electricity market, industrial electricity is basically exclusive to Zhetong Power, accounting for 95% of the market share.

Zhetong is also making great strides in the civilian electricity market. After entering Binhai half a year ago, it now has a market share of 68 percent, and the loss is still continuing.

In this situation of one power company gaining while another loses, one power company has already announced bankruptcy and restructuring, and two others have announced their withdrawal from the coastal market.

Wentai Electric Power even had trouble paying its employees' salaries, but it was impossible for Tian Wentai to give the company a single cent in subsidies.

According to his logic, he makes money from the company, and once the company's money goes into his pocket, it is his own money. Now that the company has no money, it has little to do with him.

It does not affect his life of playing golf and sailing yachts.

Against this background, the staff of Wentai Electric Power Company began to resign on a large scale, no longer caring about compensation. After all, how could they expect severance pay when they couldn't even pay their salaries?
The best strategy is to be decisive and leave immediately to find another way out.

Zhetong Electric Power also "went with the flow" and directly took over the territory of the former "big brother" in the Binhai power supply market, and its share of the civil electricity market rose to 73%.

At the same time, Zhetong Electric Power has acquired a total of 62 plots of land in Binhai alone, and has completed all the necessary procedures and obtained other relevant permits to open new energy charging stations.

These 62 plots of land are spread across Binhai's main urban area, as well as highway service areas, national highways, and other places.

In addition, along the Binhai route to surrounding major cities, Zhetong Power has obtained a total of 172 construction permits for new energy charging stations.

At present, the construction company has begun to negotiate one by one and will then start construction.

……

Another year-end is approaching. In order to have a good new year, the bosses of major power plants in Binhai have all started to actively contact Zhetong Power.

Since we can’t defeat them now, we might as well join them.

Although the conditions offered by Lin Zhe were not favorable, they were definitely not bad. There was a market transfer fee, and their circuits and equipment could also be recycled in a unified manner, which could help them make some money back.

The two sides negotiated the price for almost a week, and Lin Zhe did not show up once during the period. Anyway, it was the staff and senior executives who negotiated. For Lin Zhe, some money can be given out happily, but Lin Zhe has never been a sucker. He didn't give out a penny that he shouldn't have!

A week later, the two parties reached an agreement on the transfer fee for the remaining market share in the Binhai main urban area. Zhetong Electric Power invested a total of 1.65 billion yuan to uniformly acquire the markets and customers of the remaining major power plants.

At this point, Zhetong Electric Power Group has achieved full unification of Binhai.

……

On the top floor of the office building of the Binhai plant of Zhetong Electric Power Group, Lin Zhe was looking at the map in front of him in the president's office.

There are four areas lit up on the map, Quanhe City, Shouli City, Mingpu County and the only super city Binhai.

The other three are cities, but Mingpu on the seaside is a county town.

These are all the current power supply maps of Zhetong Power, and also the user markets of Zhetong Power. Just two days ago, the power supply to Binhai had not yet been completed, but as the remaining companies transferred the market, Zhetong Power naturally completed the takeover.

Binhai's annual electricity consumption is about 160 billion kWh, more than half of which is industrial electricity, mainly high-energy-consuming industries such as steel and chemicals.

In addition, commercial electricity consumption accounts for a lot, and finally there is residential electricity consumption of nearly 30 billion kilowatt-hours.

These constitute Binhai's electricity market and also serve as a source of revenue for Zhetong Power.

Although electricity prices vary for industrial, commercial and residential use, as well as in different time periods, on average Zhetong Power can earn more than 100 billion yuan in electricity revenue a year in the Binhai market. This data will allow Zhetong Power to rank among the top ten domestic power companies by next year.

Adding Quanhe, Shouli and Mingpu counties together, Zhetong Electric Power's monthly revenue has exceeded 10 billion.

Sitting in the office, looking at the map in front of him and thinking about the financial report he had just read, Lin Zhe finally understood Jack Ma's pretentious words "I'm not interested in money."

It turns out that when you have too much money, you're not that interested in it anymore. Of course, the premise is that you have too much.

In the past, when Lin Zhe didn't have much money in his pocket, he would check his bank card or Yu'ebao account every few days if he had a few thousand yuan, either for peace of mind or the sense of accomplishment of saving money.

But now that he has a lot of money, Lin Zhe usually has no desire to read on, mainly because the long list of numbers makes people dizzy.

……

However, although the group’s monthly revenue has reached the 10 billion threshold, the group’s cash flow is not even close to 10 billion.

Because in the past few months, Zhetong Electric Power has earned a lot of money, but Lin Zhe has spent it fast enough.

More than 6 billion yuan was spent on purchasing land and construction costs for more than 100 new energy charging stations scattered throughout Binhai and on various transportation networks under Binhai.

In addition, more than ten billion yuan was spent in market transfer fees some time ago.

There is also the "backup energy base" of Zhetong Power, which is the forest farm of Zhetong Power.

The current "Shima Town Forest Farm under Zhetong Electric Power" can no longer be called Shima Town Forest Farm, but should be called Quanhe Forest Farm of Zhetong Electric Power Group.

Because the scale of the forest farm now exceeds 100,000 acres, Lin Zhe directly achieved it in one step. After all, with such a large market in Binhai, the Volt Ants have a heavy "burden" on their shoulders, and they naturally cannot lack food.

Moreover, in the subsequent market development, leaves are an essential need for Zhetong Electric Power's power generation, so Lin Zhe simply bought more to prevent the ants from running out of food.

Therefore, the expansion has never stopped since the establishment of the forest farm. Now it has become a super large forest farm spanning several counties in Quanhe. The number of forest rangers has increased from more than 30 at the beginning to more than 500 now.

Zhetong's forest farm has become a welfare job in Quanhe, and Zhetong Electric Power Group continuously provides these jobs to people in need.

Of course, the prerequisite is that if you are like those forest rangers of Zhetong Electric Power before, you are qualified for this position, have good character and come from a difficult family, then Zhetong Electric Power will lend you a helping hand.

Just like Li Fanbing back then, he now feels that although he is still very ordinary, he has truly felt the weight of happiness for the first time.

……

"Fan Bing, let's go to the market tomorrow when we have a day off. I'll buy some meat and New Year's goods and send them to uncle and aunt."

After hearing what his girlfriend said, Li Fanbing smiled and nodded.

The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the forest farm has entered a "dormant period". Most of the employees in the forest farm will take a short annual leave, and the rest will be on duty to protect the forest.

As one of the first old employees of the forest farm, Li Fanbing was given a vacation by the human resources department this year. At this time next year, he may have to be on the front line of winter fire prevention in the forest farm, but this year he can go back and spend a good New Year with his family.

In the past, their forest farm had to share the same factory area with the old factory in Shima Town, but now their forest farm has its own compound, which is equipped with office buildings, warehouses, and a canteen.

Their forest farm is also equipped with vehicles, but compared with the "direct" power operators of Zhetong Electric Power, they are not as glorious.

The cars used are all Great Wall pickup trucks from the old factory, except that the words "Forest Farm" are added behind the words "Zhetong Electric Power" on the body of the car.

Although it is an old pickup truck, they are very satisfied with it. After all, it is a vehicle of the forest farm, and it is not an eliminated one. It is just that the power workers of the old factory have also replaced it with Buick Falcon.

The car, which had been used for less than two years, was finally theirs.

Now there is a large forest farm of 100,000 acres. In addition to the factory site in Shima Town, Zhetong Electric Power also has two in other places, and there are more than 50 forest huts of various sizes built inside the forest city.

A few months ago, Li Fanbing officially became the head of the Shima Town forest farm under the Zhetong Forest Farm.

Although he is the person in charge, Li Fanbing still keeps working and goes up the mountain every day to plant and maintain trees with the workers.

In the process, he also met his girlfriend, Xiaojuan, who is also a forest ranger. He has made plans to drive her back to the village to celebrate the New Year tomorrow!
