When the time came to December, Professor Ouyang, who represented the national strength, and Ning Zeping, the chief engineer who represented the power system, came to visit together and were warmly received by Luo Jia.

They stood in Luo Jia's office, looking into the distance, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The original headquarters of Xingchen Technology had only four office and laboratory buildings, two dormitories, and a strong current experimental center converted from a warehouse.

But since then, after three years of continuous expansion and construction, the headquarters of Centron Technology has become comparable to a small city, with about 40,000 employees working and living here.

The hardware department has 32 laboratory buildings, an open large-area experimental center, and the software department does not need a huge experimental area, so there are only two buildings, A and B.

In addition, the company's data center, under the software department, is a data processing array of 12,500 high-performance computers.

In the distance, there is the Star Battleship Community and the Star University, the sky bridge and escalators connect the three areas, and there are shopping malls, schools, such living facilities, employees, employees' families, plus surrounding residents and service workers, a total of 150,000 people.

"There isn't much land left for us in Baoshan District." Luo Jia said with a smile, "So the next step, we will go to Chongming for development, and in the next step, we will cross the Yangtze River and set up a third base in Nantong." ”

"The third base will be different from here, R&D and production are directly zoned in the same area, and at present, our subsidiaries in Nantong are mainly Xingchen Chemical, but with the third airport in Shanghai and the new subway line in Nantong, we will put more chess pieces there."

Luo Jia said that he has a clear plan for the future of the company, and he has always had a clear goal and sketched a huge development blueprint for the company.

Professor Ouyang and Chief Engineer Ning Zeping nodded again and again, in the overall planning of the Yangtze River Delta region, Shanghai has the big city of Hangzhou to the south, and it is even more powerful to the west, with Suzhou, Wuxi, Nanjing, Hefei, but the north is still blank.

Nantong's current traffic situation is not too convenient, but its total GDP still ranks 16th in the country, which shows that its potential cannot be underestimated.

Xingchen Technology's choice to expand north across the Yangtze River is undoubtedly extremely smart and far-sighted.

Professor Ouyang sighed: "You are the kind of person who never knows satisfaction, we are here to send you invitations this time, and at the beginning of the new year, there will be a big move." ”

"Dalian, Tianjin, Yantai, Qingdao, Nantong, Ningbo, Taizhou, Xiamen, Shantou, Zhuhai, Beihai, Sanya, the first batch of twelve Carmen vortex street power generation arrays, plus the experimental array in Shanghai has also been transformed, will be officially connected to the grid for power generation, then there will be an unprecedented unveiling ceremony, as the first major supplier and inventor of the power generation array, you must send representatives to participate, it is best if you can go in person."

This is really good news, but Luo Jia didn't show too much surprise, because new energy infrastructure can't be hidden.

So the huge power generation array stands on the seaside, the media is tracking and reporting every day, and there are rumors on the Internet that the time for the official commissioning of new energy is not far away, and Luo Jia is psychologically prepared for this.

"No problem." Luo Jia scratched her head and happily agreed, "Anyway, it's not far away, I'll take the whole company to watch the ceremony when the time comes." ”

Professor Ning Zeping said excitedly, "History has finally come to this day, I really didn't expect that I would live to see the day when the energy security problem was completely solved." ”

"Thirteen this year, one hundred and twenty-eight next year..."

Speaking of this, Luo Jia grabbed Chief Engineer Ning, and the fox asked, "Wait, how many power generation arrays do you say will be put into production next year?" ”

"One hundred and twenty-eight!"

"How can there be so many?"

Professor Ouyang and Chief Engineer Ning laughed at the same time: "This is what you don't know, after the launch of twelve installation ships this year, the national team ordered twenty-four, and then with the two trillion fundraising in place, the third batch of orders has also been placed, there are as many as forty-eight!" ”

"So by next year, the national team will have 84 installation vessels in its hands at the same time, which will be the world's most powerful marine engineering team, and the construction period of the Kármán vortex street power generation array is six months, and next year 128 power generation arrays will be connected to the grid, and there will be no problem at all."

Chief Engineer Ning said, "Yes, now many foreign customers have found us to build power generation arrays, but this kind of good thing is not their turn, first build China's coastal area to it, and then consider the issue of going to sea to help other countries build." ”

"Not only power construction, engineering ships to build bridges is also a good hand, the Bohai Bridge and the Qiongzhou Strait Bridge are demonstrating, when the time will be Dalian and Yantai, Zhanjiang and Hainan, with a giant cross-sea bridge all connected."

The national team is worthy of the true character of the infrastructure madman, fast enough and ruthless enough.

But after Luo Jia listened, she showed a worried look.

"The national team's high-speed construction of new energy facilities is worth celebrating, but in this way, we will be under great pressure." Luo Jia muttered.

Professor Ouyang and Chief Engineer Ning Zeping were puzzled and asked Luo Jia why.

"The fact that so many power generation arrays are connected to the grid means that the wave of layoffs will break out early, and our car war has just begun, and there is no way to provide enough jobs immediately." ”

Professor Ouyang said, "In fact, the national team has already taken this into account for a long time, and the problem now is not to lay off workers, but to reduce energy prices across the board." ”

"At present, the price of electricity for our industry is too high, generally around one yuan, if it can be reduced to five cents, it will have a huge role in promoting the industrial sector, and our industrial products will have absolute dominance in the international market."

"If the profits of the industrial sector increase, it will lead to expansion, and expansion will lead to recruitment, so that the problem of laid-off workers will be slowly digested."

Luo Jia nodded slightly, of course he understands the principle of economics, first there is cheap electricity, there will be a great development of the industrial sector, and the great development of the industrial sector can solve the problem of laid-off workers related to electricity, which is a series of chain reactions, if you want to activate this chain reaction, you must first reduce the price of electricity.

Chief Engineer Ning said with concern: "The rice should be eaten one bite at a time, and it has been rumored on the Internet recently that you want to engage in solid tires, will it be a little too radical." ”

He took out his mobile phone, opened one web page after another, and showed Luo Jia articles from foreign media.

The energy of the global auto giant cannot be underestimated, and foreign media are now praising the brave decision of Xingchen Technology, saying that the solid tires of Xingchen Technology will surely change the world.

But their real purpose is not really for the good of Xingchen Technology, but to lure Luo Jia on board in a way of praise.

Assuming that Luo Jia really puts solid tires into production on a large scale, the media will immediately turn around 180 degrees, expose the shortcomings of solid tires, and hit Xingchen Technology hard.

There is a cloud in the art of war, and if you want to take it, you must give it first.

This is the trick used by overseas auto giants to lure Luo Jia to take the bait, and when he really starts to make solid tires, he will be crazy to smear them.

The domestic media shouted loudly, hoping that Luo Jia would not be confused by the enemy, and that solid tires could not be used, otherwise they would fall into the trap of the enemy.

Luo Jia glanced at it casually, and returned the phone to Chief Engineer Ning, the solid tires in the eyes of the media, and the real products of Xingchen Technology are not a thing, and there is no need to pay attention to them.

Seeing that Luo Jia had made up his mind, Professor Ouyang and Chief Engineer Ning no longer had anything to say, and they left Hudu with a stomach full of worries and returned to the capital.

They made an appointment to see each other in Shanghai on January 1.

The experimental power generation array near the Donghai Bridge is the smallest of the first arrays, but it is the most significant, so the main venue for the unveiling ceremony of this new energy action that will surely make the world crazy is set in Shanghai.

After they left, Luo Jia pondered in the office for a long time, and finally he made a few phone calls and invited the CEOs of the three major automobile groups to come to Shanghai to meet.

"Luo Jia seems to be a little swollen now, and she doesn't listen to us at all." Chief Engineer Ning said on the train on the way back.

"Yes, maybe it's because they've been developing too smoothly in the past few years." Professor Ouyang looked out the window and said.
