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

Chapter 310 Chapter 309 Returning to China! Returning to the 'old place' shop for the first time after becoming famous

Not to mention, Old Lin really didn’t know that Lin Zhe went to New Moon. It was only after he was on the news that he, as his father, found out about it.

But then Lao Lin can "show off" again at work and casually talk about environmental protection. Hey, it is also natural to talk about the recent environmental protection conference.

As it was morning in China, Lin Zhe had just fallen asleep, but the silent button next to him kept flashing, and someone was always sending congratulations to Lin Zhe.

……

The next morning, Lin Zhe took some time to call his parents in China, including Yan Xi, who were still asleep. After greeting them, Lin Zhe began to prepare for the day.

The schedule for the rest of the day is quite full. I need to contact the local officials and various organizations here, and the most important thing is to buy the land.

Although it is easier to open up markets in underdeveloped areas like South Africa, of course, there are more complex factors involved.

Including environment, security, situation and so on.

But the local power companies there are nothing compared to Zhetong. Currently, the group's overseas branch in South Africa is expanding rapidly.

There are no other complicated factors in New Moon, but the local power companies have been rooted in the local area for hundreds of years.

It is still a bit difficult to do it step by step, so Lin Zhe has to take advantage of the "east wind" of the World Environmental Conference this time.

It can be done in one step, allowing Zhetong to gain a foothold in New Moon City. As for the speed of development, we will see the situation at that time.

This continued for the next few days.

After communicating with the entrepreneurs here, Lin Zhe discovered that the biggest obstacle to building factories here is actually the local people.

Unlike in China, people here are extremely resistant to building factories locally, regardless of how much revenue and jobs your factory can bring to the local area.

They only care about one thing: the factory will definitely cause considerable damage to the local environment, which is something they don't want to see.

Therefore, even if the local authorities approve the construction of some factory sites, they will still be resisted by local people, and even more terrifying are environmental protection organizations.

If you meet these people, you will be in trouble even if you don't die.

This is the case with many companies' factories, which are forced to move to sparsely populated areas with inconvenient transportation due to various pressures.

This is especially true for factories with serious pollution.

But one of the biggest problems facing local businesses is not a problem at all in Zhetong.

At the World Environmental Conference, Lin Zhe clearly explained the characteristics and advantages of Zhetong, which caused quite a stir among the local people.

Apart from anything else, the local factory built by Zhetong Power can almost be said to have the characteristics of zero emissions and zero pollution, and the most important thing is that they can export electricity.

Output environmentally friendly, pollution-free electricity.

This naturally has a huge market in those places that pay more attention to environmental protection and "arguing" for right, and will attract many people to respond.

However, the only drawback is that the apartment buildings here are only in the city center, but most people still live in single-family houses, which are relatively scattered.

If the circuit is exported locally, the cost will be much higher than in China. After all, the cost of the circuit will rise sharply if it is dispersed.

In this regard, the domestic circuit cost is much lower. This is the case with civilian electricity.

However, although this cost is much higher, it can be offset by the profit.

Here Lin Zhe discovered that these people talked about environmental protection but their lives were not at all like the "stereotyped" environmentalists.

I don't know if they have figured it out. They know that no matter how much they save, they can't save as much as big companies with big capital.

Or should we say that they are hypocritical and wasteful.

Anyway, Lin Zhe has seen that here, not to mention companies and some public places, even in ordinary people's homes the air conditioners are never turned off.

It must be ensured that it is cool at all times, and the temperature should not be more than 20 degrees, which is a comfortable temperature. It should be 16 degrees, which is so cold that you will shiver when you go in.

This electricity usage habit has nothing to do with saving electricity.

But this is good news for Lin Zhe anyway. It is better to use more electricity, so he can collect more electricity bills.

Moreover, the areas here are different and there is no specific regulation.

Just like here, there is no such thing as tiered electricity prices. A higher price is charged in one go.

In short, for a company like Zhetong, the profit margin can even be slightly higher than that in China.

……

In addition to the factory, Lin Zhe also had to buy a large forest farm to plant trees and then produce leaves and the like.

The place here is really big, and there are quite a few abandoned ranches and farms. If you look around, you can always find a suitable one. As long as Lin Zhe offers a suitable price, he can buy it forever.

Of course, Lin Zhe doesn’t really want to do this at the moment. It would be best to rent it for a long time, at least for decades.

After all, the annual tax on this thing is still quite high, and it is normal to operate tax avoidance within a reasonable and legal range.

In short, Lin Zhe has been quite busy these past two days, and has been personally handling these matters and being in charge of some negotiations.

We have even contacted several large companies. After all, they will all become customers of the Zhetong factory once it is built, operated and powered.

What Lin Zhe didn't expect was that Musk called him specially, expressed some goodwill, and wanted to invite Lin Zhe to meet him or something.

Lin Zhe also expressed his gratitude for this on the phone.

To be honest, the speech he made at the World Environmental Conference that day to "prove" Zhetong Electric Power was really on point, and Lin Zhe was indeed grateful to him.

But thanks to this situation, it is better to try another approach. When Lin Zhe becomes famous enough in the future, he can also say a few good words to the media and reporters, and this favor can be considered repaid.

As for meeting, I really don't have time, and there's no need either.

Because Musk's idea was very simple. Now Tesla's factory in Binhai is also very famous and large, so he naturally knows Zhetong Electric Power in more detail than others.

You know that Zhetong Electric Power is not only an energy company, but also a technology company.

Since it is for power generation, then they have set up such a large research center and gathered so many professional scholars and industry leaders, so they must have made some achievements in the field of batteries.

This way, there will be room for cooperation with Tesla. If their batteries are good, Musk can even plan to purchase batteries from Zhetong Electric Power.

But Lin Zhe obviously did not have this plan, because he would also enter the new energy vehicle track by then, and there would be no need to cooperate with future competitors.

Of course, Lin Zhe kept these words to himself for now. He expressed his gratitude and declined before starting to speed up his work in the local area.

……

Although it was their first time here, Lin Zhe and his team had already made some arrangements before landing, including at the local office in the city.

Currently, there is an office of Zhetong Energy Group in New Moon City, and there is also one in Goryeo.

As for the one in South Africa, it is not called an office, but a branch. The office recruited a large number of talents and started working in an orderly manner, including a large number of Chinese and local people.

They will all speed up the work, and Lin Zhe is just busy deciding some strategic things now.

Including where to build the factory, etc.

Some domestic companies, such as the Glass Group and BYD Auto, may have difficulty adapting to the local management environment when they go abroad, and may even violate local laws.

But Zhetong doesn't have to worry about this at all, because Lin Zhe is the same in China, and the treatment and job requirements are the same here.

For such an enterprise, there will naturally be no obstacles from the local authorities.

It took more than a week to almost get all the venues ready. Lin Zhe even rented a large piece of woodland, which already had quite a few trees, all of which were private.

We can use the time we have rented to plant trees first. In short, everything is going smoothly.

Seeing that his business visa was almost ready, Lin Zhe planned to go home.

It has to be said that Lin Zhe is a little bit uncomfortable after so many days. Eating meat and fish every day is not enough, and he has to have a packet of instant noodles occasionally.

During this period, Lin Zhe quickly acquired a private jet, which is expected to be delivered in about half a year. He will then fly directly to Binhai to complete the delivery.

As for the money, Lin Zhe really didn't think too much about it. A few tens of millions of US dollars was really a small amount of money. He had spent hundreds of millions of US dollars on setting up the local company and buying land on this trip. This was really not a big deal.

……

We returned on the same private plane as we came here.

Although it took half a month, the owner of this plane was not angry at all and even hoped that Lin Zhe could use it more.

This can earn you a favor, but how valuable the favor from the boss of Zhetong Electric Power is depends on the situation.

Now everyone knows that Zhetong Electric Power has just started to exert its strength, and as for how far it can go, it is unimaginable and limitless.

……

While using the Starlink network on the plane and browsing on my phone, I have to say that Lin Zhe's popularity has increased a lot since his appearance at the World Environmental Conference.

Now more people are paying attention to me, which is a good thing.

Including when he was watching videos in the past, Lin Zhe might have to push one about himself or Zhe Tong after watching dozens of them.

This is because the platform’s big data push is biased towards recommending relevant content to oneself.

But now on the plane, Lin Zhe has to open his phone and scroll through seven or eight messages before he comes across a piece of news about himself or the group.

These are all real. There is no doubt that this trip to Amei was a success and she got everything she wanted.

……

Binhai International Airport. This time, Yan Xi and Lin Zhe’s two best friends were outside the airport.

It didn't take long for Lin Zhe to see them after the plane landed.

Lin Zhe naturally felt awkward giving hugs to Wang Zikai and Zhang Chao, but it was different for Yan Xi. Lin Zhe gave him the hug he needed.

The two people who saw this scene also smiled.

After Lin Zhe and Yan Xi finished their haggling, Wang Zikai and Zhang Chao also spoke.

The two of them were also planning to welcome Lin Zhe tonight, so Yan Xi would naturally show up as well, and the four of them would have fun together.

Although there are still many things waiting for him when he just returned to the group, Lin Zhe is willing to take this day to relax.

What's more, Lin Zhe hadn't gathered with these two people for a long time before going abroad. This time was just right, and he missed the times of drinking with his brothers.

……

That night, although Lin Zhe missed the food at home, he didn't eat too much.

When a few brothers drink together, they naturally don't drink white wine, they have to drink the refreshing beer.

So Lin Zhe left some food in his stomach in advance, so that he wouldn't eat too much and have nothing to drink at night.

When the dinner was over, the few people hadn't planned to go to any good bar. Lin Zhe and the two brothers thought of a place as soon as they looked at each other.

It has to be the old place, the food street outside Binhai University of Technology.

It's a bit of fate to say it. The three brothers went to the old place to drink together, and Wang Zikai wanted to show off his new car, so he was rear-ended.

Since then, Lin Zhe and Yan Xi have met each other.

The four people got to know each other quite well along the way, and Yan Xi naturally did not treat herself as an outsider. After all, the brother of her future husband should naturally be closer to her.

The four of them talked and laughed along the way and came directly to the outside of the old place.

Things are different now than before. Behind the business car with four people in it is another car, which is filled with people from the security team of the president's office.

Whenever Lin Zhe goes out, there must be security personnel following him.

But they are professional enough to give people a feeling of being "invisible" and not feeling restrained.

When the four people walked in, the waiter was stunned for a moment after seeing them. Then he did not come forward to greet them and take their orders. Instead, he turned around and rushed to the kitchen while shouting excitedly.

"Boss! Boss! It's Lin Zhe! Mr. Lin is here!"

As a worker, she had heard many stories about Lin Zhe from the store boss.

The boss used to like to say that the bosses of such a great company as Zhetong Electric Power were all his loyal customers.

I like to mix my own cold dishes, and I order them every time I come here.

He also said something like Lin Zhe should take the initiative to say hello when he sees him.

I don’t know whether it’s true or not, or whether the boss is bragging. Anyway, he talked so much that Lin Zhe never came again.

Ever since Zhetong became successful, Lin Zhe has definitely become famous in this area.

Among the one hundred shop owners on this food street, at least eighty-eight of them like to advertise that Lin Zhe liked their store the most when he was a student.

Who knows which one is true or false, but tonight she saw with her own eyes a luxury business car parked at the door, and then Lin Zhe walked out of it.

At this moment, the boss in the kitchen wiped his sweat with a towel and was concentrating on cooking. He frowned after hearing the screams outside.

"Little sister, what are you shouting about? Is the store on fire?"
