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

Chapter 244 243 The capture of Gusu is settled! Some people can't sit still

Lao Lin called Lin Zhe first, but the line was busy. When he called Jiang Lan again, the line was also busy.

I waited for a long time before I got through.

As soon as the phone call came through, Jiang Lan told Lin Zhe about this matter with excitement and happiness.

After hearing this, Lin Zhe also responded with a smile. When other people called him, he would basically say a few polite words and hang up, but when his mother called, he naturally couldn't be perfunctory.

"Mom, I get it. I really didn't expect this to be on the 7 o'clock news. This time the money was not wasted. I made back my money with just these two minutes of prime-time news."

Lin Zhe's joking remarks were already thought to cause certain public opinion when he distributed the money.

Anyway, it’s a good thing, and the money has indeed been distributed to the employees. It’s good for you, me, and everyone.

I originally thought that it had been on several trending searches online, and that many people had heard of the name Zhetong Electric Power Group for the first time. Moreover, it wasn’t a negative impact, but a positive one.

I didn't expect there would be such a surprise tonight, to be on a program like this which is almost a weather vane in China.

This time, Lin Zhe felt that he had made a profit.

After chatting with his mother for a few more sentences, Lin Zhe hung up the phone and simply turned on the Do Not Disturb mode.

In just a few minutes, I didn't know how many calls I received, all of them were from people excitedly telling me about this.

At first he was quite confused, then he was pleasantly surprised, but as more and more calls came in, Lin Zhe became numb.

Now that the Do Not Disturb mode is on, the world seems to be quiet.

Originally, the director of the Internet Development Zone in Hangzhou was going to invite me to dinner tonight, but I turned it down. After all, the main purpose of my coming here was to travel, and I prefer to have fun on my own.

The plan was to go out for a walk, but now Lin Zhe plans to take a look first.

Judging from the tone of my mom and the others, being on the news isn’t a bad thing. At least it’s a positive image.

You don’t even have to put down your phone. You can just open WeChat and see the videos sent to you by many people.

Lin Zhe randomly selected one and opened it to see the segment about Zhetong Electric Power on the 7 o'clock news.

He was probably watching the news seriously, because almost any normal person would pick up his phone and start recording as soon as the name of Zhetong Electric Power was mentioned, which allowed Lin Zhe to watch these few minutes almost completely.

……

Putting down the phone, Lin Zhe's mouth corners also raised.

Needless to say, this official recognition sends a message that there is no problem with their own Zhetong Electric Power.

Lin Zhe has known this for a long time, so what this news means to Lin Zhe now is that the words "Zhetong Electric Power" have been seen by more people across the country.

Although the incident was reported in the news and became popular on the Internet, the large number of middle-aged and elderly people do not use the Internet very much, or they are unlikely to receive this kind of news.

But many of them naturally have the habit of watching the news in front of TV every day, and they watch the 7 o'clock news.

In this case, they can see Zhetong Electric Power on TV, and it is praised in such programs, so the effect is naturally needless to say.

I believe that when Zhetong Electric Power goes to where they are in the future, they will have an extra layer of trust in Zhetong Electric Power and will not feel unfamiliar.

……

In Gusu City, Lin Zhe returned here after traveling outside.

The work of this "valuation team" is still ongoing, so I might as well just wait here. It won't be long for a few days anyway.

And today, I welcomed another guest in Gusu City.

Last time, Lin Zhe brought Yan Xi to Gusu, and this time she came to find Lin Zhe again.

The reason for looking for him was that Lin Zhe told her about his plan to set up a software development team and then develop an APP for Zhetong Electric Power.

This matter touched her heart, and she also planned to create an APP for Fuqiao Bank.

But this is still quite expensive. After all, the quality of the APP is proportional to the investment of the software development team. If you develop an APP that is not very reliable and looks a bit "fake", it is better not to develop it.

Users may find it unreliable after reading it.

However, creating a better APP like the ones used by the four major domestic banks is a bit expensive, including subsequent maintenance, etc. It costs tens of millions to build a team.

Yan Xi has been thinking about this problem recently, struggling over whether to hire an outsourced team to build it or to recruit his own staff to invest the money.

Now I just happened to hear Lin Zhe say that he had this plan, so I came here with the intention of "joining" Lin Zhe's future team.

Although Fuqiao Bank has several other shareholders, her father and herself are the majority shareholders, and she is the only daughter in her family.

In the future, all these things in their house will undoubtedly belong to Yan Xi.

So no one cares more about the development of Fuqiao Bank than she and her father.

……

After this meeting, Yan Xi directly stated his plans.

"Don't worry, I won't use your team for nothing. I'll wait for the development of your Zhetong APP first, and then I'll develop our Fuqiao Bank APP after it's completed. I'll give you the money then."

"You have to do me this favor. If you are 100% confident in using your team, then I am 99% confident in it. I am still not confident about the other teams."

What Yan Xi said was right. She was definitely assured of using Lin Zhe's manpower, and it would also save the cost of setting up a team.

Hearing her say this, Lin Zhe also smiled.

"Okay, let's talk about it after my team gets up. If there is no problem, I will definitely help you. I can give you a discount, but you have to buy me a drink then."

"No problem, it's settled. I'm passing through Gusu on my way to Hangzhou, so I'll come talk to you about this."

After finishing the business, Yan Xi was not in a hurry to leave. The two of them drank tea and chatted on the city gate tower of Gusu.

We can talk about anything from south to north.

If you feel that the other party is not very reactive when chatting with a girl, it is definitely not a problem with your speaking skills. In fact, it is more likely that the girl is not interested in you.

For example, when Lin Zhe and Yan Xi chat, Lin Zhe will talk about some random and non-serious things but he can make Yan Xi laugh.

Maybe Yan Xi himself didn't realize this problem, but that's how it was for the two of them.

The conversation lasted from noon to afternoon. They both drank two pots of tea on the city gate tower, and Lin Zhe even went to the toilet several times.

At this moment, the setting sun was slanting down, and it looked very beautiful red when viewed from a distance.

"Yanxi, when I finish my work in Gusu, I will go to the northwest. Do you want to come with me? It's fun, beautiful and delicious over there. I'll take you to experience it." Although I had been to Jincheng in my early years, it was to see the murals there, because some scientists said that the murals there might disappear after a long time due to weathering.

It is not the original version either, because the murals are slowly being corroded day by day.

So when Yan Xi was in college, he went to Northwest China with the mentality of seeing the movie as early as possible, but he didn't stay for long. In short, he only saw it once.

Now, hearing Lin Zhe talking about taking her to the northwest, she nodded without hesitation.

He got up and went to the bathroom. When he came back, Lin Zhe looked at Yan Xi. Her back was black and three-dimensional in the sunset, and her swan-like neck and slender figure were perfectly revealed.

Today she wore a ponytail and a black slim sweater.

The weather was very good and Lin Zhe liked it very much.

……

Three days later, the team arranged by Lin Zhe completed the estimate of basic power construction in Gusu city.

After deducting wear and tear and some lines that needed to be re-laid, they came up with a value of between seven and eight billion.

Of course, the combined investment of their local power plants in the initial years must have been far greater than this figure, but it was also in line with market conditions. After all, some of the early lines have seriously aged over the years.

The "Zhetong Standard" that Zhetong received and customized within the group could not pass the inspection of the group's power department, so it had to be re-laid, and that part of the money was not counted directly.

In addition, there are worn-out lines, and those that are still usable must also be treated according to depreciation.

These days, a newly bought car will be sold at a 4% discount as soon as it leaves the S store. Even if it is said to be as good as a new car and has no defects after using it for a month or so, it will still be sold at a % discount. The longer the time, the more its price will drop even if there is really no defect in it.

The same is true for cables. You have to buy a new piece of cable for a hundred dollars. If you want to sell it, the only people who will take it are the power company or the scrap collection station.

Therefore, the price of second-hand cables has been kept very low.

In short, the price is about the same, and Lin Zhe’s estimate of the market users in Suzhou is not low.

Although Suzhou does not have as exaggerated a population as Binhai with tens of millions, it also has a population of more than 10 million, and the industrial density here is also quite high, so the electricity consumption is naturally indispensable.

Lin Zhe had thought about this very clearly. With a market of more than 10 million people plus industrial and other factors, his psychological estimated price was 2 billion.

This adds up to a price fluctuation of between 10 billion and 9 billion, which is the "market transfer fee" price that I intend to give.

The price is slightly different from that of their local power plants, ranging from 1.5 billion to 2.5 billion.

……

A lot of cars arrived at the Zhetong Power Plant in Suzhou early this morning, all of them belonged to the local power plant owners.

Now that the price estimate is out, Lin Zhe would naturally not choose to pay more if he can pay less. He does not have the habit of throwing money away.

Therefore, the location for this discussion or negotiation was not chosen in a teahouse or restaurant outside, but they were directly invited to the conference room in the factory.

This can also be considered as having a "home advantage".

Although this may sound like it has no impact, in fact, the environment and people do have a subtle influence on the negotiation process.

When you go to someone else's home and when someone comes to your home, the two situations are two different ones. Even a mentally strong person will undergo some changes subconsciously.

……

Today, Lin Zhe did not put on airs and chose to stand at the door in person to greet them.

After all, we are discussing business in a friendly manner and people will come to us to discuss business on their own initiative. This can save us a lot of trouble if we rely on normal marketing to slowly compete for the local market.

In addition to the investment in basic electricity, what I spend is definitely much more than the "land transfer fee". It is indeed a win-win situation if this deal is concluded.

Wen Haokong took the lead, and Lin Zhe greeted them one by one with a smile and then led them to the conference room.

As always, Lin Zhe, sitting in the main seat, came straight to the point and directly stated the valuation level of their team.

Of course, the team's valuation level was between 7 billion and 8 billion, and Lin Zhe told them the number of 7 billion.

This is already very generous. If it were any other businessman, the exact number he got would be seventy to eighty, so the number he said might be fifty.

What's more amazing is that even the data can be discounted by half once it is spoken out, directly becoming a number of three to four billion.

They had some idea in their minds, and the fact that Lin Zhe didn't put too much pressure on them also made them realize that Lin Zhe was a kind person.

Then Lin Zhe mentioned 2 billion in user fees. In short, his estimated price was 9 billion.

……

After these words were spoken, Wen Haokong and the others looked at each other, unsure of what to do for a moment.

It was Wen Haokong who spoke first.

"Boss Lin, if this is a business worth 1.15 million, I would be happy to agree to it if you could reduce it by 250,000. But this is not 10,000 or 100,000. This is 2.5 billion. You are really too ruthless."

Seeing Wen Haokong like this, Lin Zhe was not in a hurry. After all, he would take his time in doing business.

In the whole afternoon, Lin Zhe personally showed up from Zhetong Power, along with several senior executives. In addition, all the local power plant owners from Gusu showed up in full force, and the two sides went back and forth at the table in the conference room.

Zhetong put forward various reasons for the shortfall in the amount of money, while the local power plants in Suzhou also expressed their difficulties.

It took several whole hours, and in the end Lin Zhe did the typeset work himself.

Just take an integer, 10 billion, and come up with a plan on how to allocate it to their local power plants. Once the contract arrives, we can lend the money, and then arrange for the group to start taking over the local area.

Of course, this 10 billion yuan covers the expenses for the entire Gusu, including its subordinate districts, counties and towns. We will gradually lend them money as Zhetong takes over the market.

In the end, Wen Haokong also realized that it would be difficult to ask for more money. Anyway, after haggling for a while and getting 300 million, both parties decided to do this.

……

Two days later, Lin Zhe and Wen Haokong signed a transfer contract in Gusu and held a special press conference to announce that Gusu's electricity market would gradually be handed over to Zhetong Power for power supply.

After spending a few days together, Wen Haokong admired this young man Lin Zhe from the bottom of his heart.

So a few good words were said about Zhetong at the press conference. In short, the users also knew that it was a good thing for them to switch to Zhetong to supply local power.

The transfer of the electricity market in Gusu, such a big city, was undoubtedly big news in the ears of Lin Zhe's colleagues in other places, comparable to the "fall" of the Binhai market.

This time, if Zhetong continues like this, some people might get restless.
