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

Chapter 245 244 Lin Zhe buys a house by the sea, Yan Xi stays overnight

As the press conference ended, Zhetong Power began to slowly take over the local power supply market one by one according to the region.

In Gusu City, many citizens were discussing this matter.

In an old residential area, several local neighbors started talking about this while playing mahjong in a mahjong parlor.

For them, it doesn’t really matter who provides electricity, as long as there are no power outages and the electricity bills don’t go up.

"Do you know? We have changed the power company in Suzhou. We are going to change to one called Zhetong Electric Power."

"Yes, I know. Zhetong Power is the power supplier for Binhai. It is trustworthy for large enterprises. I heard that their service is very good."

"Is that true? If the service is good and the electricity bill doesn't increase, then it doesn't matter."

"This must be true. My nephew bought a house in Binhai. I stayed at his house when I went to Binhai last time. There was a problem with the circuit. I called him in the middle of the night and the electrician came in less than ten minutes."

When saying this, old man Zhe also felt a sense of "pride". After all, compared with the people around him, he was the first user to enjoy the Zhetong electricity.

Besides, his nephew is really good. Although the local people in Gusu are not bad either, they are still a little worse than those in Binhai.

His nephew is really capable to be able to buy a house in Binhai.

When this was said, the people around were also surprised. They were not surprised that his nephew could buy a house in Binhai, after all, there were many rich people in Suzhou, but also because his nephew would always bring it up whenever he had nothing to do, and everyone was tired of hearing it.

What surprised me was that he said that someone could come to my house within ten minutes at night.

Then we were full of anticipation for the change of power supply company. After all, we have been in Gusu for so long and naturally we have encountered situations where we needed an electrician at home.

For example, their community uses electricity from Wen Haokong’s power company.

Compared with several other power companies in Gusu, Wen Haokong's power plant is the largest and its service is the best.

But even the best power company in Suzhou, when they encounter the situation where they need to urgently repair the power, they just call customer service, and the customer service will arrange for power operators to come to the door.

The whole process will take at least half an hour, and that's even when it's fast.

If it's slow occasionally, it may take forty to fifty minutes. If it's late at night, the customer service phone number cannot be reached and can only be reached during working hours the next morning.

Now after hearing what the old man said, I feel that it is a good company after learning that Zhetong is such a company.

"Okay, since the electricity price is still the same, wouldn't it be better to switch to Zhetong?"

"That's right. Just look at the Zhetong electric vehicles running on the road and you will know that Zhetong is much better than our current power company."

……

Gusu is so close to Binhai, and now all the power supply in Binhai is provided by Zhetong Power. Local people can find out by just asking or going there to see.

Therefore, it is not difficult for the group to land locally.

The factory in Gusu had already completed recruitment before it started operating, including various types of staff. Now we have sufficient staff and can start operations directly.

Now that this was done, Lin Zhe left Gusu and returned to Binhai.

After staying in Binhai for a few days, Lin Zhe planned to go to the northwest.

In the past two days, the group's research center has made some technological breakthroughs under the leadership of Wu Huachun and others.

Lin Zhe is still quite concerned about this matter.

After all, the original purpose of forming such a scientific research team was to develop something new or make a breakthrough in technology.

……

At the Zhetong Electric Power Binhai Plant Research Center, Wu Huachun and his colleagues have recently made some new breakthroughs in battery storage in the laboratory, according to their report to Lin Zhe.

Basically, it is developing towards the direction of small battery and large capacity.

Lin Zhe is relatively in favor of this development direction. At least he works for an electric power company, so naturally he hopes to make some achievements in the field of power storage.

In the future, it can not only be applied to batteries, but new energy vehicles may also be a new direction.

According to Lin Zhe's idea, if a breakthrough in power capacity can be achieved on extremely small batteries in the future, it will mean a technological innovation with a huge impact that can change the world.

The most criticized issue with the new energy vehicles that are very popular nowadays is their battery life.

At least when people choose to travel by car or go on a long journey, they will definitely not choose electric cars but gasoline cars if they have a choice.

After all, there are not charging stations and charging piles everywhere, but a full tank of gas in a gasoline car can at least run for a long time.

If he can make a breakthrough in technology, Lin Zhe will be able to make a big splash not only in China but also internationally.

Originally, the bottom of the tram was full of batteries, and the range of a tram was no more than a few hundred kilometers after being fully charged. Moreover, 80% of the power would be lost over time, which is the so-called virtual electricity.

The battery life seems to be 300 kilometers, but in reality it needs to be recharged after running more than 200 kilometers.

Although it seems unlikely for now, if a breakthrough in battery capacity can be achieved one day, it means that the battery will have the same range as a gasoline car.

Then Lin Zhe doesn’t even need to be a battery seller. Just like CATL, he can even directly engage in car research and development.

Anyway, these days, there is relatively little threshold for making new energy vehicles for wealthy companies.

……

After returning to Binhai, Lin Zhe first went to the research center, and then had a chat with Wu Huachun and others. Although it was only a small technical breakthrough at present, Lin Zhe was still very happy.

Then I had dinner with them that evening.

On the other side, Lin Zhe's parents also came to Binhai.

And went to Lin Zhe’s new home in Binhai.

I had planned to buy a house in Binhai a long time ago. After all, the headquarters of the group is in Binhai, so naturally I don’t rest in the headquarters office every day in Binhai.

Although my office is very large, it even includes a lounge and cloakroom.

But this is not a long-term solution, I still have to buy a house in the city.

Lin Zhe contacted Wang Zikai directly about this. That guy was a local in Binhai and he was quite familiar with the place. Anyway, he had nothing to do recently, so he asked him to help him deal with the matter.

In the end, I bought a large flat in the city center for more than 40 million yuan.

This was also what Lin Zhe requested. He now had such a large piece of land in the factory area. He didn't have to buy a villa if he wanted to. He could just enclose a piece of land around the factory area and build one.

Besides, apart from myself, my family members don’t come here often, so there is no need for a villa. It would be more convenient to live in a large flat in the city center.

The price was over 40 million yuan. The original landlord was in a hurry to develop abroad, so he discounted the price by several million yuan according to the market price. The house was also fully decorated, and Lin Zhe was very satisfied.

After completing the transfer some time ago, Lin Zhe let others handle it. The decoration is modern style and he doesn't need to make any changes himself, but all the furniture and appliances have to be replaced with new ones.

This was done a few days ago, but I am still in Gusu.

Now after dinner tonight, Lin Zhe went home for the first time. …

This can be considered as "moving into a new house", and Lin Zhe did not hide this matter, so his parents also came. Wang Zikai and Zhang Chao were also at home at the moment.

On the first day of moving in, everyone naturally had to drink and have fun in the house at night, which was considered as "warming up the house".

Lin Zhe's family has this tradition. In Lincheng, if it is the first day of moving into a new house, they have to call a few best friends and have dinner or drinks together in the room.

Only in this way can it be popular enough.

When Lin Zhe arrived at the door of his house, he was still relatively unfamiliar with the place. It was even the property manager who brought him in.

……

After knocking on the door, the first person who appeared after opening it was someone Lin Zhe didn't expect.

Yan Xi actually came. She opened the door wearing a simple and elegant T-shirt, making her look like the owner of the room.

"Hello, welcome home~"

After chuckling, Lin Zhe walked in. The layout of the house was good and the living room was very spacious. In addition to his parents, there were two close friends at home, Wang Zikai and Zhang Chao, who were chatting with his parents at the moment.

As soon as they entered, Jiang Lan also told Lin Zhe about it.

"Xiaoyan came over today to help you warm up your house, and brought a lot of gifts."

Listening to his mother's words, Lin Zhe saw the pile of gifts in front of the storage cabinet in the living room. There were all kinds of gifts, even his favorite beer.

After sitting down, my mother also cooked the first meal of the day in the kitchen.

When Lin Zhe was having dinner with Wu Huachun and the others, he only ate a little and left some food in his stomach.

Now with the snacks prepared by my mother, and a few friends and Yan Xi here, I am naturally happy to eat and drink.

"Okay, thanks to you guys and Yan Xi for coming to support us. Let's stay in my new home tonight until we're drunk~"

……

At the same time, a flight from Binhai to Gaoli had just landed.

Few people in the group knew about this matter, and it was arranged by Lin Zhe.

Although there is still a lot of market in China, we must also look abroad. Therefore, Zhetong’s development will not be limited to the domestic market, but will look to the world.

This was Lin Zhe’s original idea, including Zhetong Electric Power’s original brand slogan, “Light up the world” was not just talk.

Lin Zhe is not very interested in Korea, but as a relatively developed industrial country, their electricity market is still relatively large.

And the place is so small, it is easy to unfold.

They weren't really interested, but Linzhe still liked their money, so this time he sent staff over to pave the way in advance and set up an office for Zhetong Electric Power in Seoul.

……

Chai Qi was from the north. He later went to study in Korea, and then returned to China to join Zhetong Electric Power.

Because of this relationship, Lin Zhe finally gave him the task of going to Korea to open the group's overseas office.

He is the only one there, and his current task is just to open the group office, and then slowly complete the registration and set up the branch.

After landing, Chai Qi first went to the hotel and then started the operation.

His study abroad experience here had helped him accumulate some local connections, which he could put to use now.

……

On the other side, Lin Zhe was already drunk at home.

Because it was a housewarming party and we had to have fun, everyone drank until very late.

Mom and Dad had gone to their room to rest, leaving Lin Zhe and them alone in the living room.

Yan Xi naturally sat with Lin Zhe. Looking at the two of them, Wang Zikai also brought up the past.

"Damn it, I never thought that you two would collide with each other~"

I don’t know if it’s because of drinking or shyness, but Yan Xi’s face looks a little red.

In response to Wang Zikai's words, Lin Zhe was somewhat considerate of Yan Xi. He was afraid that the girl would be shy so he spoke quickly.

"You are drunk and talking nonsense. When have we been together?"

If it were anyone else, Wang Zikai wouldn't have said anything, but as brothers for many years, he naturally knew what a good wingman should do, so he spoke with a smile while still being drunk.

"Hey, Brother Zhe, why are you pretending in front of your brother? You told me when we were drinking some time ago that you like Yan Xi very much. Why are you pretending now~"

Wang Zikai had said so much, and although Lin Zhe pretended to be angry, he was observing Yan Xi's reaction from the corner of his eyes.

Just as he thought, Yan Xi's mouth twitched as if he wanted to say something but he didn't say anything. Instead, his fingers were spinning nervously.

As a rich girl who had grown up, Yan Xi had seen all kinds of storms and situations, and the emotion of tension rarely appeared in her life.

But today, hearing what Wang Zikai said made her nervous.

Looking at Wang Zikai like this, Lin Zhe knew that he couldn't be anxious, because the drinking party was still going on tonight anyway.

……

The next morning, Yan Xi slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the unfamiliar room in front of him, Yan Xi was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened in an instant, and all sleepiness disappeared.

I looked around, luckily there was no one nearby. I was alone last night and I slept in my clothes, so there was no problem.

I actually stayed at Lin Zhe's house last night!

Now I can still remember it after thinking about it for a while. I was drinking last night and I was already sleepy and drunk, so I wanted to lie down for a while, but I fell asleep on the sofa.

I don’t know what happened next, and I don’t know how I ended up sleeping in the guest room.

But now I have to put these problems aside. The most important issue is that I have to run away, otherwise it will be very embarrassing if I meet Lin Zhe's parents later.

After simply tidying up the wrinkles on his clothes, Yan Xi went to the bathroom in the guest room, washed his face with clean water and brushed his teeth.

This room has a bathroom with brand new toiletries.

After finishing all these, Yan Xi took a deep breath, then gently opened the door and prepared to go out. He tiptoed to the living room and walked towards the door. Seeing that victory was just in front of him, a gentle call made Yan Xi freeze in place.

"Hey, Xiaoyan, are you awake? Come here and try the hangover soup that Auntie made."
