Our Rise Era

Chapter 216 The power of life and death!

【Western Plan】

In fact, it is a plan that was implemented in 05.

There are a large number of households without electricity in the western region, and it is difficult to extend the power grid to this area, so it is necessary to build multiple independent photovoltaic systems.

Photovoltaics can do more than that. The west is the region with the richest solar energy resources in China. Take XZ as an example, the average annual sunshine hours are more than 3000 hours, and the average annual solar radiation is 8000 megajoules (per square meter), which is much higher than the eastern economic region and the Sichuan Basin...

Almost a natural power plant...

In addition, state-owned enterprises can provide capital or joint ventures to build photovoltaic power stations, transmit electricity from the western region to Sichuan Province, and purchase this electricity...

This can create financial benefits, save electricity costs, and provide jobs in many places...

It’s a win-win-win plan…

However, this plan was completely unprofitable in the early stages.

……

After all, transportation costs and thermal power generation costs are both a problem. For example, the Inner Mongolia photovoltaic power station has a construction cost of 1 million yuan, and the cost of electricity after construction is 0.38 yuan, but the cost of burning coal is only ...

What does that mean?
This means that not only does the initial investment need to be made to build a photovoltaic power station, but also the 0.62 yuan subsidy for the price difference is needed to barely maintain the operation of the power station...

If the market is in trouble and overseas collapses, the subsidies from China can allow some companies to barely survive, but facing such a good overseas market, China...

No one has the patience to spend the same amount of money and wait for one, five, or even ten years for the market to come.

The first person to eat crab can certainly eat good food, but what if it is a poisonous crab?
....................................

"Mr. Zhang, we meet again."

"Yes, we meet again."

"..."

The first day of December.

A ray of warm sunshine shone into the office.

Zhang Yang walked into the Ministry of Commerce office alone and sat opposite Song Guifang.

In a year, Zhang Yang seemed to have become more mature and his skin became darker.

But he still wore glasses and looked very gentle and elegant, and seemed to be more polite than the young man who kept asking him for subsidies a year ago.

Song Guifang always remembers that two years ago...

Zhang Yang recklessly invested all his costs into the photovoltaic industry, and when everyone was shocked, he created a future.

Two years later, the young man who was in dire straits for tens of millions of dollars has become a wealthy man with more than 100 billion in capital...

The complicated feeling in Song Guifang's heart is hard to describe.

"Leader, please tell me how you need my cooperation. I'm ready!"

When they met again, Zhang Yang didn't say anything nonsense, but looked at Song Guifang.

"I've already told you about the western region. This time, we won't see any profits in the short term, but we will try our best to maintain costs and provide more policy support..."

After seeing Zhang Yang being so direct, Song Guifang didn't waste any words and handed the entire [Western Plan] to Zhang Yang.

"Your [Zhengyang Logistics] has lost nearly 2.5 million yuan in the three quarters of this year, of which 1.2 million yuan was used to support the [home appliances going to the countryside] industry. Please talk to Mr. Zheng, and our subsidies will be in place tomorrow..."

"..."

The Internet is asset-light.

But logistics is asset-heavy.

Over the years, almost all of Zhang Yang's industries have achieved profits and returns.

But only [Zhengyang Logistics] is losing money...

【Zhengyang Logistics】was established in 2007.

However, it has been making losses almost every year since its establishment. As its scale has grown, the amount of money lost has also increased. The amount of money invested previously cannot be recovered in the short term, and it can only passively invest money.

Zheng Guodong and Zhang Yang have been subsidizing Zhengyang Logistics almost every year. Although Zhengyang Logistics is still located in small and medium-sized cities and not many in large cities, its coverage area has expanded a lot.

"it is good!"

Zhang Yang nodded.

"Also, after preliminary review of your electric vehicles, we will issue subsidies in the next few days. Our commerce department, finance department, economic and trade department and other three departments will focus on the future electric vehicle industry and provide corresponding tax exemptions..."

"..."

in the office.

Song Guifang looked at Zhang Yang.

Immediately afterwards...

She gradually put some policies in front of Zhang Yang.

Her hint was already obvious.

That is, from now on, as long as your subsequent industries are reasonable and compliant, they will provide corresponding guarantees so that you will have no worries.

After listening to this, Zhang Yang nodded silently.

After a brief pause, Zhang Yang looked at Song Guifang and said, "Next, I will lead my partners in the photovoltaic industry to develop in the [western direction] according to the plan and cooperate with our policies. I won't talk about how much money I will invest. I can only say that I bet on the future of the photovoltaic industry in the beginning, and I will bet the same way now!"

Zhang Yang's response this time left Song Guifang stunned.

After a moment, she nodded with a serious expression: "Your words are enough!"

After she finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something again, and after a long time, she stood up.

"Wait here for a while. I'll go over first..." "Okay!"

Zhang Yang watched Song Guifang walk out of the office.

He didn't ask her where she went or what she did.

Instead, he took out his cell phone and looked at the latest domestic news.

then……

He saw a message.

【【iPhone 4】It is hard to get one in China, and there are long queues at dealers in many places】

Mid-2010.

In Los Angeles, the United States, Joes released the iPhone 4, which caused a sensation in the entire market.

Two months ago, iPhone 4 was launched in China. Overnight, it destroyed the entire mobile phone circle in China. It is no exaggeration to say that the streets were deserted.

From October to December, two months...

With the arrival of iPhone 4...

The first to suffer was the high-end mobile phone [Novia].

The newly released smartphone only sold 20 units in two months, suffering an unprecedented Waterloo!

Secondly, LG, the mobile phone brand, was also hit the hardest!
After avoiding the [Xiaomi 2] mobile phone last year, it updated its equipment this year and entered China in September. As a result, only 9 units were sold...

And the iPhone 4 phone!

In just two months, the sales volume surpassed that of Zhang Yang's [Xiaomi 2] mobile phone, and in nearly a year, the sales volume reached an astonishing 600 million units!

It’s crazy!
When Zhang Yang saw this scene, he was not shocked, nor did he feel much excitement in his heart.

……

[Xiaomi 2] made [Xiaomi] one of the most competitive brands of mobile phones in China within one year...

As long as they stick to their products, they will have a chance.

……

Time passed little by little.

I thought I only had to wait half an hour.

However, Zhang Yang never dreamed that he would have to wait in the office for nearly three hours, from 8:30 in the morning to 11.30: in the morning.

When it's 11.32:...

The door to the office finally opened.

Immediately afterwards...

He saw Song Guifang walking into the office holding a document.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"No, I'm fine."

"Take a look at this document..."

"This is……"

Zhang Yang took the document handed over by Song Guifang and took a quick look at it.

There was only one line of words written on it: [Photovoltaic Industry Market Supervision Joint].

"In the past year, due to our subsidies, China's photovoltaic market has become chaotic. There were all kinds of situations such as selling inferior products as good ones and fraudulent subsidies. In order to put an end to this situation and ensure that the subsidies are implemented, we have discussed with the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Supervision and other major departments to establish a comprehensive supervision system for the chaos in the photovoltaic industry..." Song Guifang looked at Zhang Yang with a very serious expression, and almost every word was emphasized.

Zhang Yang looked at every line of the document and saw the signatures of many departments. Finally, he looked up at Song Guifang and said, "Leader, what do you mean..."

"In addition to official regulators, we also need trustworthy non-official personnel..."

"I..." Zhang Yang was shocked when he heard this.

"Boss Zhang, if you are willing to rebuild a healthy, complete team that can follow the same path as us... I hope you can become a member of the supervision team and exercise the corresponding responsibilities..."

"Leader, could it be..." This agreement shocked the calm Zhang Yang. After a moment, he looked up at Song Guifang, and his expression became serious.

"After signing this agreement, the subsidy systems of major companies will be reviewed layer by layer by the regulatory system, and you are the first batch of reviewers..." Song Guifang stared at Zhang Yang.

“…” Zhang Yang’s body shook slightly.

He did not speak, but silently lowered his head and read the document carefully from beginning to end, even some of the documents between the lines were not missed.

After reading it, he suppressed his emotions, nodded, raised his head and stared at Song Guifang: "Leader, do you want to re-establish a new set of rules for China's photovoltaic industry?"

"You have also witnessed the wild rise of the photovoltaic industry in its grassroots era. I believe that you know better than anyone the huge impact of capital on the entire industry. But sometimes, we can't just pursue profits. We need to do things. Although we can't see the benefits in the short term and the progress is slow, it will benefit the country and the people in the future..." Song Guifang stood up and looked out the window silently.

"I understand!"

After taking another quick look, Zhang Yang finally signed the document.

Although it is just a title of subsidy supervision, and the date above seems to be five years, after five years, the supervision system will be implemented depending on the situation...

but……

From now on!

Zhang Yang controls the lifeline of China's entire photovoltaic industry for the next five years or so!

Just one more sentence!
That is……

The power of life and death!
