Founded in 1981, Rupert Group started as a small flour mill with an annual production capacity of just over 100,000 tons.

In the turbulent 80s, Lawrence, the first-generation leader, seized the development opportunity, and in just a few years, the production capacity was rapidly expanded by 8 times, becoming a well-known food tycoon in South Gray.

Six years later, Lawrence founded a sugar company and soon expanded its annual production to 1.8 million tons, with the product exported to the land of Ashwagand.

But the industries that have made his wealth explode are still oil and cement!

In 1996, a cement plant with a capacity of 8 million tons was completed, and it took less than ten years to become a multinational giant with revenues of more than 1 billion US dollars.

Nine years later, Lawrence gambled again, investing $7 billion to build the largest oil refinery in Ashbar, and in the past two years, it has generated $20 billion in annual revenue.

The Rupert family has become the second largest consortium in Ashland, with hundreds of billions of assets in charge, and its business territory spans cement, sugar, corn, flour, fertilizer, steel, oil and gas, coal, electricity and other fields.

The main purpose of Lin Jiazhen and Darnell's visit to China this time is to cooperate with domestic oil and gas companies to jointly develop the rich oil resources of Ashland.

As a Chinese-American, Lin Jiazhen saw the booming future technology, and originally wanted to let the social horse match and meet Chen Heyu.

Unexpectedly, the other party took the initiative to find the door, and the two sides naturally took a shot!

"If I'm not mistaken, Moss Mall has opened a service area in the South Gray area, Mr. Darnell, do you want to be a distributor of Future Technology?"

Chen Heyu was noncommittal and asked with a smile.

"Mr. Chen, South Ash is really small and pitiful for the entire Ash Island Continent, and the inventory ration is less than one thousandth, do you know the price of a Moss Ai speaker in the cotton country?"

Lin Jiazhen smiled bitterly and couldn't help complaining.

The Ai products of Future Technology are only eligible for the aristocracy and the wealthy in Ashland.

Every time there is a new sale on the Moss Mall, there are only 1,000 units in stock, and there are only 1,000 units in the South Gray area, which is not enough at all.

Therefore, a large number of middlemen have emerged, purchasing Moss Ai speakers from Beiberry Zhou, reselling them to Ashzhou, the original price is 129 yuan US dollars, and it can rise to 1000 US dollars across the ocean!

And sellers are all love to buy not to buy attitude!

"Mr. Lin might as well say bluntly, I don't know much about the secondary market in Ashland."

Chen Heyu shrugged his shoulders and asked casually.

"Moss Ai speaker 1000 US dollars, Dream game cabin 60,000 US dollars, a pair of Moss Ai glasses also cost 20,000 US dollars!"

Lin Jiazhen was very angry and extremely dissatisfied.

He knows very well what the real price of future technology is, and the huge profits have been made by greedy second-rate dealers.

How could he endure this?

Why can't Rupert be this second-hand dealer?

He doesn't actually hate middlemen, he just hates middlemen, why aren't they himself!

"Oh? Is it? I'm so sorry, I can understand your feelings, these people are really hateful. ”

Chen Heyu smiled and said with a smile, as if he had seen the other party's inner thoughts.

"Mr. Chen, frankly speaking, I want to win the exclusive distribution rights in the Gray Island area, and I believe that this cooperation is a win-win choice for both of us."

Lin Jiazhen put aside Darnell and communicated directly with Chen Heyu, obviously too lazy to cover it up.

"No problem, I can give you a 5% discount on the purchase price."

Chen Heyu thought about it and readily agreed.

"Too little, I want 10%!"

Lin Jiazhen shook his head and said in a deep voice.

"10% is the treatment for Best Buy, Target and Yamason, not to mention, this benchmark has revenue requirements, and if it does not meet the number of sales, there is only a 5% discount."

Chen Heyu explained softly.

The implication is that they are not optimistic about the consumption potential of Ashis, despite the large population, except for a few rich countries, most of the remains, all of them are poor and fresh, what to buy Moss products?

"Mr. Chen, Rupert Group's flour and cement can travel unimpeded on the Gray Island Continent, which is enough to show our strong channel strength."

Lin Jiazhen said proudly.

"In this way, as long as you can complete the annual sales performance of 40 billion US dollars, when the next year is allocated, you can get another 2 billion US dollars for free."

Chen Heyu pondered for a moment and replied.

This requirement is almost the same as the treatment of the three major retailers of Beiberry, which is not excessive.

After all, there is no need to talk too much about the cooperation project of the solar photovoltaic power station.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen!"

Lin Jiazhen was obviously relieved that winning the exclusive distribution right is equivalent to earning back an additional income of 4 billion US dollars for the group every year.

As for whether it can be completed, of course he is full of confidence!

Although there are many poor people in Ashland, there are also many rich people, and the performance KPI of 40 billion US dollars, he resells it at a high price, and only needs 2 million Dream game cabins to complete.

"Mr. Chen, your generosity and non-discrimination have earned you the friendship of the Rupert Group, and you are welcome to visit us at any time so that we can express our gratitude."

Darnell grinned.

“……”

Chen Heyu sneered and was silent, your sister, where can labor and management go, do you have to go to Ashzhou?

He doesn't have Lin Jiazhen's unique fetishes!

"For the photovoltaic power station project, I can agree to it on behalf of the group, and then give Mr. Chen an accurate reply after I return to China."

After Lin Jiazhen got a satisfactory answer, he took the initiative to speak.

He is still clear about the truth of repaying the favor!

In fact, in addition to the abundant oil and gas resources, the Gray Island Continent is also rich in clear blue skies and sunshine, and it is the sunniest place on the Earth Star.

Previously, a large number of multinational companies laid solar photovoltaic panels and built solar thermal power stations in Ashland.

For example, the Cotton Country's Benban solar park generates 6.57 billion kWh of electricity a year.

However, due to the constraints of financing, difficulties in grid access, and shortage of technology and talents, the scale has not been large, and it cannot be sold at a high price on that barren soil!

"Mr. Lin, don't be in a hurry to agree, let's take a look at this document first."

Chen Heyu said with a smile.

Yang Hongshuo on the side immediately reacted, took out a thick pile of materials from the document bag he carried, and handed it to Lin Jiazhen and Darnell opposite.

"Don't use ultra-high voltage transmission lines? With wireless energy transmission technology! ”

Lin Jiazhen turned the first page and was shocked by the information on it, so that the sci-fi blockbusters in the house don't have such a big brain.

He can be the general manager of the energy department, but it is not all about nepotism, and his talent is as outstanding as his knowledge.

In his impression, there was a company in Mianyang that had done similar research, but because it could not solve the size of the transmitter and receiver, it had no choice but to give up.

Could it be that the future technology has more advanced technology in its hands?

He looked at Chen Heyu with a slight suspicion, wanting to get a precise reply.

"That's right! I have a mature set of space-based energy transmission technology, and I also have the ability to solve the problem of transspace power transmission.

Otherwise, will I be able to go all the way to Ashzhou to build a power plant? ”

Chen Heyu raised his eyebrows and said, looking completely confident and calm.

In fact, with the technology in his hands, he can't do the effect depicted in the document at all, but so what, as long as the power plant is completed before the construction of the power plant is completed, it will be done.

"Future science and technology deserves to be the leader of Huaguo's science and technology circle."

Lin Jiazhen gave a thumbs up and sighed.

In private, no one can figure out whether they believe it or not!

After all, this technology is indeed a bit unrealistic, as if someone told you that he built the same Iron Man suit in his garage.

Who would dare to believe it?

"I'm going to start laying out the global wireless energy matrix in the summer of next year. It is the infrastructure that serves this plan, first spend 20 billion and launch 10,000 near-Earth satellites......"

Chen Heyu glanced around, even Zhou Xiaoyu, Yang Hongshuo and others were a little unconvinced, let alone representatives of the Rupert consortium.

"How does Mr. Chen want to cooperate?"

Darnell asked, believe it or not, and have an attitude.

"The two sides will build a joint venture, I will provide technical solutions and equipment, Rupert will be responsible for solving the land, labor and security problems, and the converted electricity will be repurchased by Kwafu Energy at a price of 0.075 US dollars per kilowatt hour."

Chen Heyu said eloquently.

Don't think that the price of 0.075 US dollars is too low, you must know that the electricity consumption of residents in cotton countries is only 0.04 US dollars per kilowatt-hour, and this is still the sales price, and the local power company still makes money.

On the surface, Rupert promised to come down and make sure he didn't lose money!

"Mr. Chen, there will definitely be a loss in wireless energy transmission of electricity, even if it is transferred to Dahua District, you may not be able to make much money, right?"

Lin Jiazhen asked puzzled.

"Who told you that I was going to transmit electricity to the country?

In this world, there are always places where there is a shortage of electricity resources, such as Beer Country and Italy, which even rises to 0.6 US dollars every winter, and it is my responsibility to help these poor Euroans. ”

Chen Heyu said righteously.

"Profiteers!"

Lin Jiazhen scolded secretly.

Chen Heyu and the Kuafu Energy behind him can sell power resources for at least 0.3-0.4 US dollars per kWh, but they are only willing to take him to share the income of 0.075 US dollars.

"What do you think, Mr. Darnell?"

Lin Jiazhen asked sideways.

A major cooperation agreement must always be backed by a responsible person to be safe.

He is the son-in-law of the Rupert family, and in case of an accident, he will push the responsibility to 625, and he will naturally be fine.

"I ...... I'm okay with that. ”

Although Darnell was dissatisfied, he thought for a while, and then readily agreed, just making less money, and following the future technology, there is a high probability that he will not lose.

Chen Heyu smiled, if Rupert Group did not agree, he would have to find another partner, and he would have to delay for a while.

"How to determine the proportion of this equity?"

Lin Jiazhen asked.

"The future technology is 51%, and it needs to have absolute controlling stake and decision-making power."

Chen Heyu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a smile.

"No! Without our assistance, it would be impossible for Future Technology to build an optoelectronic factory on the Gray Island Continent.

Therefore, the controlling stake should be handed over to the Rupert Group. ”

Lin Jiazhen said greedily.

"There is no Rupert Group, there is the Oppenheimer family, and there is the Dangote Consortium, who told you, I have only one choice."

Chen Heyu pursed his lips and said with a look of disdain.

Future Technology is the one who really holds the core technology, and without his wireless energy transmission technology, the power resources of Ash Island are only sold for 0.04 US dollars, or even 0.03 US dollars.

"Rupert Group has an advantage over other consortia in that we are able to complete the construction of the photovoltaic power plant in the shortest possible time with the help of the original resources and channels.

In addition, a military equipment regiment will be sent to protect the company, and if the profits are too weak, the board of directors will definitely not agree. ”

Lin Jiazhen persuaded.

"I can give you another 10% of the dividend right, but the holding ratio cannot be changed, otherwise, I would rather change another partner."

Chen Heyu said leisurely, staring at Lin Jiazhen with burning eyes.

"Negotiable?"

Lin Jiazhen asked tentatively.

"0.075 US dollars, according to the dividend ratio of 59%, Rupert Group is equivalent to not having to do anything, you can get all the benefits of an optoelectronic power station for nothing, what is not satisfied?"

Chen Heyu asked with a smile.

Even in South Ash, where the cost of electricity is the highest, it is not a simple matter to sell electricity for more than 0.04 US dollars.

After all, the local power supply company still has to make money, and it also has to consider the cost of erecting transmission lines, maintenance costs, and labor expenses.

"Okay, then skip the question for now, how much will the investment in this project cost?"

Lin Jiazhen didn't dwell too much and continued to talk about the next key point.

"The total investment is expected to be 20 billion US dollars, which can build 50 million ultra-large photovoltaic solar panels, covering 200 square kilometers of desert.

Imagine how wonderful it would be to turn a hot desert into a cornucopia of gold coins. ”

Chen Heyu encouraged, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

$20 billion?

Then Rupert Group needs to pay 10 billion US dollars, even if it is built in phases, there is huge cash flow pressure for the company.

Lin Jiazhen quietly looked at Chen Heyu, and saw that the other party looked wealthy, as if he didn't take the 10 billion US dollar to heart at all, and hated it for a while.

He is also the existence of the Earth Emperor in Ash Island, but he didn't expect that one day, he would be ridden to show off his wealth.

However, when he thought about it, he couldn't help but ask: "How many megawatts of installed capacity can be reached?" ”

"Mr. Yang, you can introduce."

Chen Heyu smiled and motioned for Yang Hongshuo to add this.

"About 20,000 megawatts!"

Yang Hongshuo immediately replied.

"It can't be!"

Lin Jiazhen immediately retorted that Rupert Group has a photovoltaic power station, which cannot achieve such a high light energy conversion efficiency.

"Mr. Lin, the conversion efficiency of the batteries manufactured by the Kwafu solar photovoltaic factory is twice that of the market, and it only makes sense for us to do what others can't do."

Yang Hongshuo pretended to be full of fandom and replied, the last sentence was the original words that Chen Heyu had told him when he had a meeting.

Lin Jiazhen's brain is running fast, 20,000 megawatts, based on 10 hours of light per day, the annual electricity production will be as high as 73 billion kWh!

According to the dividend calculation of 0.075 US dollars * 60%, Rupert Group can get 3.28 billion US dollars of income every year, and it only takes three years to return to the capital!

In the decades that followed, the energy source continued to reap the rewards handsomely.

"Mr. Chen, happy cooperation!"

Darnell couldn't wait to stand up and grabbed Chen Heyu's hand, he was the nominal head of the Ministry of Energy, and he took the initiative to negotiate this business, and he would definitely be promoted and raised.

"Mr. Chen, these core data are very different from the information I know."

Lin Jiazhen was more cautious and asked after consideration.

"Since we dare to do photovoltaic power generation, we are naturally fully prepared, solar cells, monocrystalline silicon plates, we have exclusive patents, the effect far beyond the benchmark level of the same industry."

Yang Hongshuo replied with a smile.

"I have no problem, I will try my best to promote this cooperation, thank you Mr. Chen for your care, I must come to South Gray when I have time, let me do my landlord's friendship."

Lin Jiazhen's brows stretched and he said happily.

"I will definitely go when I have time."

Chen Heyu replied with a smile, silently adding in his heart "It's weird"!

Subsequently, after the two parties finalized the general direction, Zhou Xiaoyu went out to clarify the cooperation goals and expected results with the other party, and determined their respective responsibilities and rights and interests, including capital investment, technology sharing, risk sharing, etc.

Second, work together to develop a detailed project plan, including project progress, key milestones and delivery timelines, and determine the milestones and work content of each stage to ensure that the project is completed on time.

Then, discuss how and how the funds will be invested, including the source of the funds from the partners, how the funds will be allocated and used, and determine how the funds will be disbursed, the timeline and the associated legal obligations.

When he heard Chen Heyu's request that Rupert Group need to advance 40% of the cooperation money in advance as a purchase fund for photovoltaic panels, Yang Hongshuo understood the boss's idea, which was purely an empty glove white wolf.

Take the money of the Rupert consortium and place an order in your own factory, even if you encounter force majeure risks, Future Technology will only make less money, and you will not lose a dime.

"Awesome!"

Yang Hongshuo couldn't help but admire, but he also knew that without monopoly technology, it was a dream to negotiate this business.

"With 73 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity per year, it will be sold to Euro at least three times, and it is not a problem to earn 20 billion US dollars.

Chen Heyu's heart was extremely happy.

Once this model is popularized, even if he does not go to Gray Island to build photovoltaic power plants, he can only buy electricity from those photovoltaic power stations.

If the local production capacity can't keep up, he can also sell equipment with his left hand and power resources with his right hand, and easily earn hundreds of billions of dollars a year.

Chen Heyu, who tasted the sweetness, immediately understood why Li Chaoren on Hong Kong Island chose to copy the energy industry in Europe.

I'll fight for another chapter, old man!
