Chapter 263 Huilong Energy is established, and Gao Qiqiang's ambitions swell!
Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
The drums and gongs resounded, the golden dragon danced, and the lion leaped like the wind.
Banners fluttered and colorful flags waved, creating a lively and bustling opening ceremony.
When Zhao Ruilong and Zhou Weihong together removed the red cloth from the signboard, revealing the company's full name.
A long wall of fireworks placed on both sides of the company gate was set on fire.
In an instant.
Fireworks shot straight into the sky with a whooshing sound, leaving trails of colorful smoke.
The various colors arranged side by side resemble a magnificent rainbow, or a brightly colored smoke wall.
The audience erupted in applause.
Standing among the guests, Gao Qiqiang clapped vigorously until his hands turned red.
Although he only slept for less than four hours last night, he is still full of energy at this moment.
Today, many leaders from the provincial and municipal governments came, and numerous media outlets conducted interviews and provided coverage throughout the event.
How could anyone feel sleepy during such a grand ceremony?
Amidst enthusiastic applause.
Wearing work clothes and standing in a square formation, the employees of Huilong Energy walked in an orderly manner toward the main entrance of the office building.
Everyone beamed as they accepted the red envelopes from Zhao Ruilong to mark the start of the workday.
Then he shook hands with Zhou Weihong and other leaders one by one before entering the office building.
"Young Master Zhao is so generous!"
"Yes, each red envelope was so thick, it probably contained several hundred yuan!"
"It should be more than a few hundred yuan, I estimate it's over a thousand yuan."
"Giving each person a thousand is quite a lot!"
"Compared to an investment of hundreds of millions, what are a few hundred thousand in red envelopes?"
"That's true. Huilong Group focuses on high technology. If it doesn't treat talent well, how can it succeed?"
"What's a thousand? I heard that in Handong, top-level chip research talents get tens of thousands in settlement allowances as soon as they join the company!"
"My God, really? Tens of thousands of yuan? Are you sure? That must be some incredibly talented person!"
"Those are talented people who can do chip design, packaging and testing, and lithography research, not just manual laborers!"
……
Gao Qiqiang listened silently to the whispers of the people around him.
I couldn't help but recall that yesterday, in order to finish the project as soon as possible, I promised to give everyone a 1,000 yuan red envelope.
The workers were incredibly energetic and enthusiastic, working tirelessly under the scorching sun for over ten hours to complete their work perfectly.
This incident made Gao Qiqiang realize firsthand that money is a wonderful thing; as long as you pay enough, people will be motivated to work.
Think about it.
The rapid progress of numerous high-tech projects and major engineering projects in Handong Province is clearly due to the ample funding provided by Zhao Ruilong.
The employees are dragging their feet on their wages, which are only two thousand.
But if employees earn over 10,000 yuan a month, they'll treat the company like their own home.
this is the truth!
not to mention……
Zhao Ruilong did more than just give out money!
Under his influence, many leaders from the province and city came to visit.
These are things that you can usually only see in the news.
Now, not only does he appear in person, but he also smiles and shakes hands with everyone, encouraging them to work hard.
This naturally maximizes the emotional value.
Gao Qiqiang felt that he should be an employee of Huilong Energy Company.
They'll be absolutely moved to tears, and they'll definitely be full of energy.
They were eager to risk their lives to make the wind power industry bigger and stronger as soon as possible.
After the last employee entered the office building and started working.
Zhao Ruilong arrived at the front of the group of guests.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, everyone was invited to tour the company.
Gao Qiqiang, who was not standing with his younger brother Gao Qisheng, naturally followed his godfather Chen Tai at a leisurely pace.
Although Gao Qiqiang had visited the factory many times before in order to complete the renovation quickly and efficiently, he was very familiar with the place.
But this time, it's naturally different.
In addition to various exhibition boards, models, and animations along the way, which provide a vivid and engaging understanding of the wind power industry,
Everyone arrived at the conference hall and took their seats. Zhao Ruilong then gave everyone a concise and easy-to-understand science lesson.
This naturally broadened Gao Qiqiang's horizons, as he had never attended junior high school.
He finally realized that wind power generation is not as simple as building a towering tower, installing extra-long fan blades, and letting the wind drive a high-powered motor to generate electricity.
Wind power generation is a massive, systematic project that requires not only high-standard, high-quality hardware but also a series of supporting software systems.
Moreover, wind power generation has a very broad market prospect.
The vast ocean, the expansive mountains and rivers, the boundless west...
Wind power generation can be carried out wherever there is wind all year round.
This is pure, green, and clean energy.
Although wind power generation is not particularly stable, it cannot generate electricity without wind.
However, it can be combined with photovoltaic power generation and pumped storage.
When wind and solar power are abundant and the power grid cannot absorb them, they can be used for pumped storage.
Simply put, it's like pumping water from the foot of the mountain to a reservoir on the mountain.
Once it gets dark, there's no way to generate solar power, and there's no wind either, so we can open the gates to generate hydropower.
This way.
By combining wind power, solar power, and hydropower, a stable supply of clean energy electricity can be achieved.
As the world increasingly focuses on energy conservation, environmental protection, green development, and carbon emission control.
The clean energy market is bound to grow larger and larger, so it is the right time for Jinghai to vigorously develop wind power.
After one class, there's no need to visit the workshop or laboratory.
Gao Qiqiang had an urge to invest in the clean energy market.
Although I work for the construction group and work for my godfather Chen Tai, I can't persuade him to expand the business.
But his younger brother, Gao Qisheng, can add new business!
In addition to selling electronic products and operating chain internet cafes, it is entirely possible to add clean energy business.
If it continues to develop, wouldn't Qiangsheng Company be able to grow and become Qiangsheng Group?
Consider Zhao Ruilong's extraordinary position.
Is it simply because of his status as a son of a powerful family?
Obviously not!
Although he is the beloved son of Zhao Lichun, the top official in Handong.
However, in Linjiang Province, his background and identity do not have much influence.
What truly made him highly valued by the provincial and municipal governments, and even granted every request, was his investment.
Zhao Ruilong's investments can boost employment, stimulate the economy, and contribute tax revenue...
It can both increase the income and wealth of the people and allow officials to rise rapidly in rank.
With a personality like Zhao Ruilong, how could he not be very popular in Linjiang?
The same reason.
If I continued to work for my godfather Chen Tai, at Jinghai Construction Group...
He will always live in Chen Tai's shadow and will never achieve much.
After all, the main business of the construction group is engineering construction.
It was only after the downfall of the Tang family and the bankruptcy of the Haifu Group that they were able to merge and reorganize to create a real estate development business.
Therefore, no matter how much it develops, Jinghai Construction Group will only be involved in engineering and real estate, and will not make a significant contribution to economic development.
They want to have a strong influence and a high social status.
It is obvious that we must develop manufacturing, something that can directly impact the livelihoods of many people.
If I can bring a large number of jobs and substantial tax revenue to Jinghai.
Even without a powerful background or influential connections, no one would dare to easily harm me.
They not only dare not act rashly, but will also protect it with all their might.
Otherwise, businesses will go bankrupt, employees will be laid off, and tax revenue will decrease...
Do you still want your official hat?
The thought of this.
Gao Qiqiang's ambition could not help but grow wildly.
Why did the Tang family, who had dominated Jinghai City for many years, suddenly disappear?
Why did Su Jinyi, the former richest man in Linjiang Province with a net worth of over 20 billion yuan, end up fleeing in such a sorry state?
"Is it because their backgrounds and connections aren't strong enough? Obviously not. The Tang family has Vice Mayor Tang, and Su Jinyi has a vice-provincial-level brother, yet they still got dealt with, didn't they?"
"They were targeted not only because they were too greedy for money and committed far too many crimes, but also because they had no irreplaceable value!"
"Their businesses don't involve much technology. For example, when Haifu Group collapsed, Jian Gong Group could immediately take over, doing engineering and real estate. Isn't that simple?"
"Moreover, their downfall will actually allow power, capital, and resources to be reshuffled and redistributed, which will benefit the development of emerging industries. It would be strange if they weren't dealt with!"
"In comparison, Huilong Group, which deals in high technology, has tens of thousands of employees in just one of its electronics factories. With so many people's jobs at stake, who would dare to touch Zhao Ruilong?"
"If my brother and I join forces and get into some high-tech manufacturing, turning Qiangsheng Company into Qiangsheng Group with tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of employees and an annual output value of hundreds of billions, so what if we do some shady business?"
"As long as it's not too excessive, doesn't cross fundamental principles, and doesn't cause major chaos that leads to public resentment and official anger, those shady businesses won't have any problems at all. After all, if I don't do it, someone else will!"
"As for my godfather, Uncle Tai... he's so old-fashioned, conservative, and outdated. He's only thinking about doing more projects and developing more properties. If he keeps messing around like that, he won't make much money in a year and he'll never amount to much!"
"Didn't he want me to support him in his old age? Then he should just step down, stop interfering in the management, and just hold onto his shares and wait for the dividends every year..."
The tour is still ongoing.
Everyone was in the laboratory, listening attentively to Zhao Ruilong's explanation.
But Gao Qiqiang's thoughts had already flown far away.
He wished his godfather, Chen Tai, would retire and go home to enjoy his old age.
He and his younger brother Gao Qisheng directly merged and reorganized the Construction Group, turning it into the Qiangsheng Group.
At this moment.
Chen Tai had no idea that his godson Gao Qiqiang would have such thoughts.
When his goddaughter Chen Shuting introduced him to him, Gao Qiqiang knelt down in public and shouted that he would take care of him in his old age.
After joining his own Jinghai Construction Group, Gao Qiqiang indeed obeyed orders without complaint and did a great job.
Therefore, Chen Tai could not have imagined that Gao Qiqiang's ambitions had begun to swell.
Today, his sole purpose was to congratulate Zhao Ruilong and listen to his various introductions.
He originally thought that Zhao Ruilong was just a privileged young man from a prominent family, but with little ability.
They are popular because of their parents' power and huge investments.
Now, witnessing and hearing firsthand, Zhao Ruilong delivered a comprehensive explanation of science, industrial development plans, and scientific research techniques to the audience without using any notes...
Chen Tai was truly convinced.
Without real skills, how could anyone memorize so many key points of knowledge by rote?
Moreover, he was always able to answer questions from guests and reporters fluently.
All of this is enough to prove that Zhao Ruilong is both technically savvy and visionary.
As for why Zhao Ruilong was so open and honest, explaining it to everyone almost without reservation.
Zhao Ruilong's explanation impressed Chen Tai even more.
From the 18th to the 20th century, Americans founded companies such as Carnegie Steel, Standard Oil, and Ford Motor Company.
By continuously developing or introducing the most advanced technologies, innovating production management methods, acquiring competitors, and controlling upstream and downstream enterprises, we can achieve independent control of the entire industrial chain.
Ultimately, these actions enabled these American companies to significantly reduce their costs compared to their counterparts in other countries, allowing them to rapidly grow and become international giants.
Americans have long proven that any advanced technology needs to be applied on a large scale, integrated into industries, and innovated through institutional means to transform technological advantages into economic advantages.
Whoever has the ability to quickly apply and spread advanced technologies in the market, and whoever can control costs to the lowest level and maximize efficiency, will reap substantial profits.
The new energy industry is not an emerging industry.
Wind power, hydropower, and photovoltaic power generation have long been documented in engineering projects both domestically and internationally, with many already built and put into operation in developed Western countries.
Even in China, where the industrial base is relatively weak, wind power generation was started as early as the 1950s in order to solve the problem of insufficient power supply caused by rapid industrial development.
The main reasons for the slow development of the new energy industry and the sluggish growth of the clean energy market are, in addition to insufficient global awareness of energy conservation and environmental protection and inadequate policy support, also include the fact that costs are not low enough.
If the cost of wind power is very high, even higher than the price of electricity from thermal power, who would buy and use it?
Only by finding a way as soon as possible to make the cost of wind power lower than its selling price, so that it is profitable, can we attract everyone to invest actively and enable the industry to develop and grow rapidly.
Zhao Ruilong's solution was open cooperation.
He hopes that a large amount of capital, technology and talent will actively join in.
By leveraging our strengths and compensating for our weaknesses, and through cooperation and mutual benefit, we can improve efficiency and technology, reduce costs and energy consumption, and ultimately grow the industry bigger and stronger.
To this end, he was willing to act as a pioneer, investing heavily and concentrating his efforts to develop a batch of products and projects to cultivate the market...
This vision and courage truly impressed Chen Tai.
"Young Master Zhao truly deserves to be a man of great things!"
"If I were in business, I would want to control everything exclusively and keep all the profits for myself, so that no one else could get a share. But what about him?"
"But he'd love for more people to enter the industry and work together to reduce costs, increase efficiency, and make a profit in all aspects, including design, production, construction, operation, components, and systems!"
"However, what Young Master Zhao did is also correct. No matter how powerful a company is, it is impossible to monopolize an entire industry. Only by developing the entire industry can the industry leader make money."
"Otherwise, how could Huilong Energy Company alone develop wind power generation devices, conduct surveys and designs, and carry out offshore and onshore construction operations? Different technical fields require companies with different specialties to do the work quickly and well!"
“Take my Jinghai Construction Group as an example. Even if I can conduct surveys and designs and come up with various construction plans, can I also smelt steel, manufacture construction machinery, and produce various building materials myself? If I try to do everything, I can only do nothing well or with any expertise!”
……
Chen Tai gained profound insights from this visit and made significant progress in his studies.
Little did he know, Gao Qiqiang, who was standing beside him, was thinking about letting him retire and enjoy his old age.
The visit ended, and it was time to leave.
Zhao Ruilong shook hands with each of the guests to express his gratitude.
Despite having weathered many storms, Chen Tai was still incredibly excited to shake hands with Zhao Ruilong.
I could only nod repeatedly; I didn't know what else to say.
On the contrary, Gao Qiqiang, who was standing to the side, responded with ease after hearing Zhao Ruilong's praise.
It wasn't until quite some time after they left by car that Chen Tai gradually calmed down.
After giving a self-deprecating chuckle, he glanced sideways at Gao Qiqiang sitting next to him.
"Yesterday's hard work has certainly paid off; Young Master Zhao is very satisfied!"
Gao Qiqiang nodded and said, "Yes, otherwise they wouldn't have chatted with us for so long."
Chen Tai turned to look ahead and said calmly:
"It suddenly occurred to me that the construction of this wind power plant is quite a large project!"
"Moreover, a single section of a wind turbine tower can be twenty or thirty meters long and weigh several tens of tons, and the blades are even longer and heavier."
"So whether a wind farm is built on land or at sea, hoisting and installation is a technical job."
"Since Young Master Zhao says that the wind power industry has a bright future, I think we should recruit talent and buy equipment. Once we have the construction technology and qualifications in this area, we will definitely make a lot of money in the future."
Gao Qiqiang was speechless.
The wind power industry is bound to be massive and have an astonishing output value in the future.
All you want to do is work on construction?
Can't you be a little more respectable?
Can't we do something more technically demanding?
If they go public in the future, they can make a fortune. Wouldn't that be great?
Despite his dissatisfaction, Gao Qiqiang still nodded and agreed with a smile.
"Godfather is wise!"
"Once we arrive at the group, I will organize a meeting with all departments to discuss this matter."
Smiling as he looked ahead, Gao Qiqiang secretly made up his mind.
That afternoon, I discussed with my younger brother the establishment of Jinghai Qiangsheng Group, aiming to grow bigger and stronger, and achieve great success...
