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

Chapter 173 Chapter 172 Overwhelmingly powerful! Start celebrating!
Two days after Zhetong Power officially started supplying power to Binhai, some civilian electricity users in their five major power plants in Binhai were lost, but the number of tens of thousands of households is not a big deal for Binhai, a large city with a population of tens of millions.

But you have to know that it has only been two days, and the situation in the future is not optimistic for them, but it is really acceptable for now.

But the industrial electricity market is something that makes people like Tian Wentai uneasy. There are more than two million registered companies in Binhai, large and small, including those that have ceased operations but not cancelled.

But there are only more than 3,000 factories in total, including some small factories.

However, Zhetong Electric Power "pried away" nearly a thousand factories in just two days, and they were all large foreign factories and domestic manufacturers!
Those are all real large electricity users, basically occupying a large share of their coastal market. Now they have all switched to Zhetong Electric Power.

Originally, Tian Wentai and his team had a good idea, which was to curb the development momentum of Zhetong Electric Power. They would immediately follow any preferential conditions offered by Zhetong.

This allows users to maintain the same service, so they can maintain their market position by leveraging the advantages of being an old power plant.

As Zhetong Electric Power has been unable to open up the market, it can only hang on in a half-dead state. As long as Zhetong's new plant is in operation, it will be losing money every day. Sooner or later, Zhetong will suffer a heavy loss in Binhai and exit the competition.

But now Zhetong Electric Power has done nothing after its opening on the market. It has not started any price wars or even any marketing such as account opening discounts for users. However, all the big electricity users have turned to Zhetong Electric Power.

How can they keep up? Should they learn from others to generate electricity using biomass and environmentally friendly methods?
If possible, Tian Wentai would be eager to learn it. Who wouldn't be envious of low-profit environmentally friendly power generation? But where can such black technology be learned?
After dropping the report in his hand, Tian Wentai felt a little dizzy for a moment.

In recent years, there have been countless power companies of all sizes that have wanted to enter the coastal market to get a piece of the pie, at least fifty if not a hundred, but the longest-running one only lasted more than a year before going bankrupt.

These local power plants have a firm grip on the market thanks to their first-mover advantage and have nothing to fear.

But now that they have met a rival like Zhetong Electric Power, all the tricks that have worked in the past have lost their effectiveness. How can they fight in this market competition? How can they fight?
Thinking of this, the cigarette that Tian Wentai had just taken out of his hand was crushed into pieces by him. This feeling of powerlessness was the most annoying.

……

On the third day after Zhetong Power officially started supplying power, power supply trucks kept coming in and out of the Zhetong Power plant in Zhuwen District since early morning.

The power connection and line laying projects for more than a thousand companies are very busy, and the front-line power workers have been working overtime these two days.

Zhetong Power's power supply vehicles can be seen in almost every area of ​​Binhai.

Lin Zhe also left the factory early in the morning and then came to the Tesla factory in Binhai.

Tesla is a leader in new energy, and Lin Zhe’s Zhetong Electric Power is an energy company, and also a serious "new energy" company, so the two sides quickly reached a cooperation agreement after contacting each other.

Lin Zhe rarely visited other companies, so the reason he went to Tesla's factory was actually to take advantage of the "momentum".

After all, as a leader in new energy vehicles, Tesla's popularity is not low. Lin Zhe has also sent a signal to the public in the past, that is, Zhetong Electric Power and new energy are inseparable.

Under the leadership of the factory manager, Lin Zhe also appeared in front of the camera and then signed the power supply agreement.

Tesla's factory in Binhai also successfully affixed the Zhetong Electric Power logo.

This incident was also reported and many people noticed it.

The impression of new energy in most people's minds is naturally environmental protection, followed by saving money, and this is the case with new energy vehicles, but the combination of Zhetong Electric Power and this concept has also deepened this concept.

……

To be honest, it was more like an accident that the "wind" of Zhetong Electric Power started to blow in Binhai.

The right time, the right place and the right people are all essential. At least Lin Zhe himself did not expect that it would be so smooth and he could achieve this achievement.

Now all the major companies in Binhai are eager to use Zhetong Power for electricity, hoping that the Zhetong Power logo can appear in their factories or directly-operated stores, so as to add an environmentally friendly label.

Not only those customers who made reservations in advance before, but now the first wave is various factories and enterprises in Binhai.

The second wave was in major commercial centers and shopping malls, and Zhetong Electric Power's "environmental protection trend" was naturally noticed after it started.

Originally, the power company was the one that had the trouble of changing power companies, so it was not an inconvenience for them at all.

Moreover, Zhetong Power can achieve "seamless connection" because of the existence of mobile power supply vehicles. They can get power supply from Zhetong Power immediately after the replacement.

Therefore, the heads of shopping malls and marketing managers also started to think about it.

They began to actively contact Zhetong Electric Power, and after opening an account, they set up the Zhetong Electric Power logo at the entrance and square of the shopping mall, marking the beginning of their "environmental protection" efforts.

It's ironic, but it's not cheap to put a company logo on these places for advertising, since they are busy coastal areas where people come and go.

But now Zhetong Electric Power did not spend a penny, but so many institutions came to us on their own initiative and requested this matter.

Moreover, before the power supply contract was signed, they specifically requested that it be marked that their customers could use the Zhetong Power logo appropriately, otherwise they would not do it. This would be simply unimaginable at other times.

……

Binhai IFC, as a serious city center, is a place where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.

The businesses that have settled in it are basically internationally renowned brands and various luxury goods.

The mall is high-end enough, so naturally Bige is also upscale. Other malls may charge money to place some brand advertisements outside to generate revenue, but here the outside of the mall is clean.

They simply don't bother to earn this money. Apart from the words and logo of the IFC Center, there is no other brand advertising. They would not do it no matter how much money they are offered.

But this afternoon, after Zhetong Electric Power received their account opening request and quickly signed the power supply contract, it dispatched a mobile power supply vehicle, and then their Guojin Center management also rushed out.

First, we asked the security guard to put a few warning signs in front of the large signboard at the front entrance of the IFC Center, and then we contacted the advertising company to enter.

Their staff directly hammered on the big sign of IFC, and then marked the logo and words of Zhetong Electric Power next to IFC.

This scene is also happening in other places in Binhai. It is inexplicable, as if it is walking on the cusp of the trend, but Zhetong Electric Power has indeed made a name for itself in Binhai because of this. …

One week after Zhetong Power opened for business, the number of residential electricity users in Binhai has reached more than 34,000, and the number of corporate electricity customers has exceeded 3,000, of which factories directly account for half.

Moreover, this number is still growing rapidly every day. Due to the group’s manpower reasons, the orders are currently being queued for processing.

Customers who want to join Zhetong Power now have to sign a contract and then wait in line.

According to Lin Zhe's estimation, there were originally 1,000 front-line power workers and 200 power supply vehicles, which were enough to meet the development needs of the Binhai market. Even before the development in the early stage, it was estimated that many employees were still idle.

But since the market opened, not to mention people, even the cars have been running non-stop all day long.

Lin Zhe had not anticipated the booming enterprise market, and now he really does not have enough manpower.

If we include those users already in the queue, the number of Zhetong Power's users in Binhai has exceeded 50,000, and the number of corporate users has exceeded 5,000.

Although the civilian electricity market is not over-developed at present, the major electricity users have "joined" Zhetong Power one after another. It is estimated that they have occupied 10% of the market in Binhai. If the current momentum continues to develop in another half a month, it will not be a problem for them to occupy 20 to 30% of Binhai's total electricity market.

After all, there is only one problem facing those factories and large enterprises now. Everyone has to use "environmentally friendly electricity". If you don't use it, it means you are not making any contribution and you are also holding them back.

If the higher-ups launch another wave of energy-saving and emission-reduction requirements, won’t those companies that don’t use “environmentally friendly electricity” be targeted?
It's all the same anyway. In order to avoid this risk even if it will not happen, it is safer for everyone to honestly connect to the power supply of Zhetong Power.

Based on this premise, Lin Zhe also estimated that as long as there is enough time, he can capture at least 80% of Binhai's industrial electricity market. As for the remaining 20%, they will be some companies that are closely related to the local power plants.

……

It currently occupies 10% of the entire Binhai electricity market. Although the number seems a bit small, Binhai’s five major power plants previously occupied about 80% of the entire market, and the rest were some small power plants that occupied 20% of the market.

Wentai Power, the largest power plant among them, only occupies 18% of the Binhai market share. Blue Light Power, the weakest of the five major power plants, only has 9% of the market share so far.

In just one week, Zhetong Electric Power has replaced the Blue Light Power Plant. As a result, Zhetong is now ranked fourth and it is expected to be ranked third in two days. This can be said to be a miracle in the electricity market.

To be honest, no one has developed faster than Zhetong Electric Power. This time the speed even exceeds that of Quanhe.

So Lin Zhe thought that they had to celebrate, especially since the brothers had been working overtime almost every day during this period. Although the group’s overtime pay was not reduced in any way, they still had to express their gratitude.

So today, Lin Zhe decided to "celebrate" for Binhai's employees.

……

Lin Zhe's way of celebrating success has always been simple and crude, and this time is no exception. His employees are also happy because he saves trouble.

What's more, Binhai's employees are currently working overtime, with so many orders waiting for electricity to be supplied to each household, so there is really no time to hold a separate celebration party or something.

Therefore, the finance department sent a notice to all Binhai employees according to Lin Zhe's instructions.

In the notice, the group reported to employees the group's achievements and the 10% market share it has achieved so far, and also expressed gratitude to the employees for their hard work.

Generally speaking, this kind of notification would stop here in other companies, and at most it would be a verbal statement, but after Zhetong Electric Power finished speaking at the top, the highlight was at the bottom.

All Binhai employees of Zhetong Electric Power Group will receive bonuses, but the bonus methods will vary depending on the position.

For example, security personnel who work normally and do not have to work overtime for a long time will be paid 1,000 yuan, which makes everyone happy.

The staff in the business hall have been very busy recently, so they are directly paid a half-month basic salary of 2,000 yuan.

Finally, there are the front-line power workers. They are the busiest and most tired during this period. The bonus they receive is more than half a month's basic salary, which is directly three thousand yuan!

The finance staff also kindly reminded us in the notification that the group finance is currently working overtime to arrange for a unified bank transfer. If you have not received it, you can go to the finance department to report it, and it will be paid out together with the monthly salary.

……

On the other side, Zhang Chao in the group marketing department office also received the message, as did his brothers in the marketing department. After all, they had been working day and night on the plan and exploring the market these days.

Everyone was very happy after receiving the notice. Who wouldn’t be happy to get an extra salary of 2,000 yuan per person?

Zhang Chao was also happy. With the two thousand yuan, he could do a lot of things. After he was done with this busy period, he would pick out some gifts for his family.

I am the type of person who, when you give me a plan, I can get at least 80 points out of 100, and occasionally I can get over 90 points with a flash of inspiration. As long as Lin Zhe has drawn out the route, he can always achieve his goals steadily.

Zhang Chao is aware that he is not capable of doing innovative things and is a mediocre talent, so he does not have much ambition in Zhetong Electric Power. He is already very satisfied with his current situation.

I can work steadily until retirement. I don't have to make any great achievements, but I can just complete every task assigned by Lin Zhe conscientiously. This way I can do justice to Lin Zhe.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chao simply went to the balcony of the office, which was considered a smoking area.

After lighting a cigarette, Zhang Chao felt a little emotional. This time, the Binhai Market finally did not embarrass Lin Zhe. The result was not very good but definitely not bad.

"Wuhu! The bonus has arrived!"

Just after Zhang Chao exhaled a puff of smoke, he heard a sound coming from inside. It should be the bonus that has arrived.

He had already thought about spending the two thousand yuan to buy his father a bottle of Wuliangye worth more than a thousand yuan so that he could taste what good wine tastes like.

However, after opening his phone and seeing the transfer amount marked as a bonus, Zhang Chao was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his eyes hard.

"The group's finance department must have made a mistake! How could the number be this high?"
