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

Chapter 225 224 Eyes Opened, Engineer Wang Came to Binhai Factory for the First Time
Nowadays, big companies flock to big cities to make money.

Including Yan Xi, she was thinking that Lin Zhe's next target might be Guangdong or even a big city like Beijing. Taking one of those big cities would be equivalent to taking ten or even a hundred cities in remote areas.

But Lin Zhe told him that Zhetong Electric Power's next stop was neither the wealthy Guangdong and Guangdong regions nor the populous Beijing, but the border of the motherland, to the Northwest.

It's not just the cities of the Northwest, but also the desolation of the Northwest.

Lin Zhe likes to talk nonsense, but when he is serious, he has never lied to himself.

Yellow wine is mellow and easy to drink.

After taking a bite, Yan Xi's face became even redder, and Lin Zhe just smiled at her.

"Take your time to drink. Even though this doesn't taste exciting, it's still quite strong. Don't get drunk before you've had much."

……

In the next two days, Lin Zhe fulfilled his promise. After finishing his work, he took Yan Xi for a walk.

The last time he came here, he was in a hurry and Lin Zhe didn’t have a good time to explore the city of Gusu.

This time, I took Yan Xi with me and went on another tour. On the last day, we even went to the neighboring Wuzhen to experience the water town style.

Compared with some other tourist towns, this one is considered to be quite well developed in the country, with all the high-end hotels available, but Lin Zhe and his friends did not stay here.

We returned directly to Binhai that night.

……

In the Binhai plant office of Zhetong Electric Power Group, Lin Zhe turned on his computer while sitting in a familiar chair.

What I told Yan Xi last night about going to the Northwest was not just talk.

There is a map in the computer, which is of the Northwest region, including Xinjiang Province and Gansu Province.

The span of going directly into Xinjiang is a bit too large, so Lin Zhe plans to use Gansu Province as the midpoint and slowly spread out to the surrounding areas.

At present, Zhetong Electric Power has adopted such a development strategy, including in the two places of Shancheng and Binhai, and the development strategy of Northwest China is the same.

Compared with other areas, the scope here is larger.

Especially since Lin Zhe had decided at the beginning that the development path must include all towns and villages.

For example, in coastal areas, villages and towns are not far apart. In more densely populated areas, there may be a village a few kilometers away, and another town seven or eight kilometers away.

However, the distance between villages and towns in the northwest is very large. In some exaggerated places, the distance between villages starts from more than ten kilometers, and sometimes even reaches twenty or thirty kilometers. The distance between towns may be fifty or sixty kilometers.

Of course, there are places with dense populations that are relatively close to each other, but on average the population density here is much lower.

This also means that Zhetong Power's investment in the local area will be several times that of previous places.

Everyone knows how to do the math, so over there, power plants are basically only found in county towns. In towns, they are not even called power plants, but just power stations operated by individuals.

The machines in these power stations can be said to be large-scale "diesel generators".

When residents in the town use electricity, each household pays and then the electricity lines are connected to you.

The electricity is only supplied for a few hours every day, and once the time machine is turned off, the town will be out of electricity.

This is still in the town. After all, the population is larger than in the village and the people are relatively concentrated. In the villages under the jurisdiction of the town, there may be people in the big villages who have set up entire "power stations" similar to those in the town.

In the small villages and towns, which account for more than 90% of the total number of villages, no one does this and the villagers usually have no electricity.

Occasionally, when electricity is urgently needed, the village has to raise funds to purchase diesel generators and diesel power plants, just like in Songjiakan.

This is the situation here, which is even more desolate than where Lin Zhe and his friends are.

Especially in terms of population, compared to those villages in the south where there are at least hundreds of households, and even thousands or tens of thousands of households, here a village with only a dozen households is considered a small village, and a village with dozens to hundreds of households is the norm.

……

Given the density of people and the size of the population, investing in circuit construction would be a pure loss of money.

Everyone knows how to do the math, so naturally no large power companies would "go to the countryside."

Even for Lin Zhe, if he maintains an absolute profit value under the premise of Ant Power Generation, it will probably take decades for him to recover the investment.

But here, Lin Zhe is willing.

Lin Zhe has not forgotten how Zhetong Electric Power came to be.

At the beginning, it started as a small power plant in Shima Town. It first provided electricity to the people in the town, and then to the people in the villages under its jurisdiction. This is how it attracted the attention of the "Liangshui Building Materials Group" in Liangshui Town.

With a little bit of luck and the fact that Qingchuan Electric Power did not take it seriously, his power plant developed step by step and occupied the markets of several nearby towns.

When he finally entered Lincheng, Lin Zhe did not forget the small villages along the way, including those sparsely populated natural villages with only seven or eight households.

An electric wire was built directly all the way to Lincheng.

Then, he led his troops into the disaster-stricken Tinglin Town regardless of wind or rain. The local people in Lincheng saw all these things.

So Lin Zhe took over the market in his hometown and took over Lincheng.

……

Later, the Fengxiang factory area began to be built, and Lin Zhe still remembers the propaganda in Fengxiang County.

Step by step, they built circuits from the factory to Songjiakan, Lizhuang Town, and the homes of fellow villagers from hundreds of villages in Fengxiang County.

So the people of Fengxiang made their choice and the way they could to give back was to line up at the business hall of Zhetong Power after the power lines of Zhetong Power were connected to the county town.

Lin Zhe clearly remembered that he went to the business hall on the opening day and stood there in the cold wind for a while. He originally thought that not many people would come to "support" him.

But just as he was chatting with Qin Chengping, an old man appeared with soy milk in his hand.

Then came the second uncle, and the third...

Until the line was so long that there was no room left in the business hall, the local folks from Fengxiang stood in a long queue outside the business hall.

At that time, I even paid out of my own pocket to have someone buy soy milk for everyone to warm up.

After Fengxiang, the next was Quanhe, then Binhai, and even those remote islands on the sea had electricity provided to the locals one by one.

I have never forgotten the promise of Zhetong Electric Power to reach all directions and light up the world, and I have lived up to this promise.

……

I have done my best for everyone, and everyone has praised me and the four words "Zhetong Electric Power".

To put it nicely, this is the development history of Zhetong Electric Power, and Lin Zhe will not deviate from this original intention.

To put it bluntly and utilitarianally, this is also Zhetong Electric Power's biggest "marketing tool". People in big cities come from thousands of villages, and they light up their hometowns themselves, and they will also give back to Zhetong Electric Power.

Lin Zhe thought there was nothing wrong with this, he had indeed done it. Just like those charities that are said to be showy, if you can really give money to people in need, it would be better if there were more such shows.

This is what Lin Zhe thought. If this is a "show" and "marketing", then Zhetong Electric Power will definitely market and show off to every corner of the motherland.

After looking at the map, Lin Zhe picked up the phone on the table and called Zhang Yuliang.

"Yuliang, inform Engineer Wang that he has to come to Binhai for a meeting."

……

At the Shima Town Power Plant, Wang Shuqing has been working very enthusiastically recently.

The main reason is that this "old man" has a rather strange personality. As he gets older, he actually likes some "challenges" or new work content.

It was originally a power plant in Shima Town. After developing step by step, it is now considered to have been "finalized".

After all, Shima Town is such a small place, and it is only like this now.

Gradually, he felt that he had lost the "momentum" in his daily work, so he wanted to quit at that time, but Lin Zhe persuaded him to go back and also gave him a full physical examination.

Some time ago, Lin Zhe gave him the position of leader of the "training group" within the group. Although it was not a long-term position, going to Shancheng really made this "old man" excited again.

After returning from the mountain city after completing the work of training new employees, even my wife said that I looked a few years younger.

The day-to-day work feels a little less boring and unexpected.

……

Opening the duty record sheet, Engineer Wang checked it carefully as usual, but at this moment the phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Hello, Mr. Wang, I'm Yuliang. Mr. Lin asked me to arrange for you to come to Binhai. There is something in the group that needs your participation. It may take a few days. I will help you book a ticket, and then someone from the Lincheng branch will pick you up to Quanhe."

Zhang Yuliang is now the head of the president's office, and was one of the first employees to join Zhetong Electric Power.

At the beginning, it was not called a group, but Zhetong Power Plant. Mr. Wang was not officially registered. There was only one formal employee, Lin Zhe, and Mr. Wang's distant relative who was an apprentice was counted as half an official employee.

The first round of recruitment was carried out later. Zhang Yujing was one of the first recruits. At first, she was in finance. Naturally, she had a lot of interactions with Mr. Wang and they were familiar with each other.

So the phone call was not as "businesslike" as communicating with other people, it was a little more polite and respectful.

……

After hearing what Zhang Yuliang said, Mr. Wang was quite curious and asked immediately.

"Yuliang, what meeting did CEO Lin ask me to come over for?"

"Engineer Wang, you will know when you come here. General Manager Lin has set a very high level for this meeting, and confidentiality is required. Not to mention you, I am also curious, but I don't know what the meeting is about."

Since Zhang Yuliang said so, no matter how curious Wang Shuqing is, he can only find out when he arrives there himself.

Besides, this is a work arrangement and I can't shirk it.

……

After get off work in the afternoon, Wang Shuqing also walked home.

Many of the workers in the factory are from Shima Town. They basically choose to drive electric cars or something like that to go home, which is more convenient.

But Mr. Wang felt that he should walk more and consider it as exercise.

When he got home, his wife had already prepared dinner. Wang Shuqing had a very high status in this family.

After all, Wang Shuqing himself had retired from a large provincial power plant, so he had no pension to receive. Now he has been re-employed by a super large enterprise like Zhetong Electric Power.

By chance, he is also considered a "veteran" and is still a factory manager in his old age.

Not only his salary income, but also his status went up directly. Just for this reason, his family respected Wang Shuqing very much.

After returning home today and sitting down, Wang Shuqing told his wife about this. He had to go to Binhai for a meeting of a very high level, and General Manager Lin specifically asked him to go.

Upon hearing this, Wang Shuqing's wife also gave the answer with a smile.

"What does this mean? General Manager Lin values ​​you and respects you. Wow, General Manager Lin is really good to us~"

"Hey, you old woman, why are you still saying this? My ears are almost callused. I know better than you whether Mr. Lin is good to us or not~"

After the laughing and bickering, Wang Shuqing thought about his plans to leave the factory while eating.

……

The next morning, someone from the Lincheng branch was supposed to drive to pick him up, but Wang Shuqing declined and just took the factory car.

We drove all the way from Shima Town to the nearest highway entrance, and then went to Quanhe City.

Then after arriving, Wang Shuqing went straight to the train station. Only then did he open his backpack and take out the prepared pies.

It was still early, about fifty minutes or almost an hour.

The older generation is like this. If they want to catch a bus, they will be in a hurry and arrive a long time in advance. For this, they sacrifice a little time.

Young people may be stuck in time, and the train will basically arrive at the station twenty or ten minutes after it is about to depart. Of course, some people miss the train because of this.

……

That afternoon, the high-speed train arrived in Binhai.

Taking into account that Mr. Wang is old and it might not be convenient to go to the busy big city, Lin Zhe specially asked Zhang Yuliang to pick him up in person.

After all, the two of them knew each other, and Zhang Chen also drove his own Bentley to pick up Mr. Wang.

Walking out with the crowd, when Wang Shuqing was confused and didn't know which way to go, Zhang Yuliang had already called out his name.

"Engineer Wang, this way."

Following the sound, Wang Shuqing saw the finance girl from before, then walked over and took his backpack from the young man next to him.

After a few greetings, Wang Shuqing was led by Zhang Yujing and the others to the train station parking lot, and then he saw Lin Zhe's Bentley.

"Mr. Wang, this is what Mr. Lin specifically ordered. He asked his driver to come pick you up."

After hearing this, Wang Shuqing sighed from the bottom of his heart. Lin Zhe was really amazing. He was lucky to be the "number one employee" of Zhetong Electric Power. He didn't know what blessing he had earned in his previous life.

The car drove smoothly all the way and soon entered Zhuwen District, and then entered the Binhai plant of Zhetong Electric Power Group.

Speaking of which, Wang Shuqing has never been here before. This is his first time to come to the group's Binhai factory.

"Wow, this is really big~"
