Chapter 401 Electricity Investment!

From July 20, 1979 to September 20, 1979.

The two-month domestic investment investigation period of Empire Group and its subsidiaries has ended.

Members of the investigation team in various parts of Guangdong Province, Shencheng, and Yanjing have already taken a car or a plane back to Hong Kong.

It can be said that this in-depth investigation of the situation in the mainland has yielded great gains.

Today, Yang Ming will also leave the Friendship Hotel in the provincial capital and take a car back to Hong Kong.

Yang Ming is leaving by car.

Xi Lao and others are still reluctant to let him go.

After accompanying Yang Ming and others to have breakfast, Xi Lao said: "Mr. Yang, see you in Yanjing."

Nothing unexpected happened.

This year's National Day ceremony will also invite Yang Ming to go north to Yanjing.

In addition, this year is 1979, the 30th anniversary of the National Day, which is even more grand.

"Xi Lao, see you in Yanjing."

Under the watchful eyes of Xi Lao, Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang and others, as well as the staff of the Friendship Hotel, Yang Ming and others got on the car, left here, and went back to Hong Kong.

. . .

When the motorcade passed through the suburbs of Yangcheng, Guancheng, and Pengcheng, and returned to the Luohu Port in Pengcheng.

The time had come to 16:45 that afternoon.

The border guards here saluted Yang Ming's motorcade and watched Mr. Yang and others cross the port to the opposite Xiangjiang.

At the port on the Xiangjiang side, the white sir was already waiting.

When he saw the Rolls-Royce that Mr. Yang was sitting in, he immediately led the way in front.

Under the escort and leading of the white sir all the way.

Back to the Repulse Bay Mid-level Villa, it was nearly 19:30.

Yang Ming's Rolls-Royce had just stopped.

Yang Jirong and his wife, Lin Dezhong had come out to greet them.

"Peter."

Yang Ming got out of the car, and his mother Li Yufang had come over to look him up and down.

Originally thought that Yang Ming would be very hard in the mainland during this period, but it seemed that his son not only did not lose weight, but looked a little fatter.

"Peter, you've worked so hard." Yang Jirong also came over and said.

"Daddy, Mommy, it's not hard for me to go back to the provincial capital. Except for the lack of air conditioning, everything else is similar to Hong Kong."

However, Yang Ming is not tired.

The members of the inspection team are not so lucky.

The conditions in China are poor in all aspects, and these two months are the hottest time in China.

Many white and Chinese inspection team members have not only lost weight after returning from the mainland, but have even been tanned.

However, for those white people, what they like most is to be darker.

When many white people go to the Mediterranean or the seaside for vacation, they like to take off their clothes and lie there in the sun.

It's just that the temperature in China is 36 degrees Celsius now, and the sun is a bit scorching at noon and in the afternoon. In addition, the food eaten in the mainland may not suit their appetite, so that after two months, those white people and Chinese have become thinner and darker, but for those people, it is really a good experience.

Yang Ming, Yang Jirong, Li Yufang, and Lin Xiuzhi went to have dinner first.

After dinner.

Yang Ming said: "Lin Xiuzhi, immediately notify Ma Shimin, Wei Li, Li Caixin, Bao Fuda, Wei Peter, Xia Boyin, Mannix, Xijiao Youhong, Tang Shilian and others to come to the meeting."

"Yes, boss."

. . .

Back to Hong Kong.

Yang Ming found that there was still something different.

Just now, he had finished taking a shower and was returning to his study, looking outside from the study window.

22:30 in the evening.

Ma Shimin, Wei Li and others had driven to the Repulse Bay Mid-Levels Villa.

Ma Shimin and others appeared in Yang Ming's study.

"Boss."

Ma Shimin, Wei Li and others greeted Yang Ming respectively.

Yang Ming nodded and asked them to sit down according to their seats.

This time Yang Ming personally led a 5,000-person inspection team back to the three main places in China to inspect the market.

Among them, the Pearl River Delta is the main one, and there are also Shanghai and Yanjing.

After two months, these inspection team members have a very clear understanding of all aspects of the country.

"There have been feedbacks about the information of the members of the inspection team during this period. You have read them all. What do you think?"

As long as you go to the local area for inspection, you will have an understanding of the local business environment and other aspects.

Yang Ming has already told them that he will not only inspect but also invest. However, after further in-depth inspection this time, it is more convincing.

Ma Shimin and others looked at each other.

From the information fed back by the members of the inspection team, they feel that the current situation in China is at least 30 to 50 years different from that of developed countries in Europe and the United States.

Especially in some core technologies, the difference may be even greater.

Common feedback from the members of the inspection team.

There is a serious lack of electricity in China.

Because cities like those in the Pearl River Delta, including Yangcheng and now Pengcheng, are seriously short of electricity. There is no electricity at night and during the day.

This means that without electricity, a place cannot develop at all.

Because factories and industries need a lot of electricity, how can they develop if there is a serious lack of electricity?

"Boss, those places we are inspecting now are all seriously short of electricity. I don't think there is any investment value." Bao Fuda said.

He read the feedback from the inspection team many times.

After learning that Yangcheng, a city with a population of four or five million, did not even have enough electricity for daily life, how could their company or even factory invest in the mainland to develop?

"What do you think?"

"Boss, I think so too. There is a serious power shortage and we can't move to the next step at all." Li Caixin said.

Yang Ming looked at Xia Boyin.

Xia Boyin is now the general manager of Xiangjiang Electric Company.

He saw great investment value in it.

"Boss, everyone, I think there is great investment value in it."

"Tell me about it."

Yang Ming smiled.

"I am targeting the power infrastructure. As for Xiangjiang now, there are two major power companies in Xiangjiang. Among them, our Xiangjiang Electric Company monopolizes the power of Hong Kong Island. Over the past year, the profit has also gradually and steadily increased. If we invest in the country, such as investing in power in the Pearl River Delta, how much value will it bring."

The last time Yang Ming acquired Xiangjiang Electric Company, he first proposed to Xia Boyin and the executives of Xiangjiang Electric Company that the power market in Xiangjiang was still too small, and they had to share the power market in Xiangjiang with the Kadoorie family.

In this case, we must go out.

Before this, Xia Boyin had not figured out how the boss would lead Xiangjiang Electric Company.

This time, the inspection team sent by Xiangjiang Electric Company went to the mainland for inspection. As soon as they came back, they reported that the domestic electricity was like living a hundred years ago, and even many places had no electricity at all.

Most rural areas in the country basically light kerosene lamps, which means that for their Xiangjiang Electric Company, it is a huge investment value.

There are now one billion people in China, and only five million in Xiangjiang.

Think about how big the electricity market is here.

Even if it is impossible to invest all in the country.

However, if you invest in several cities in the Pearl River Delta, the return will be ten times or even dozens of times that of Xiangjiang.

When Xia Boyin was talking excitedly, Yang Ming smiled and said, "Yes, electricity investment is the foundation and the income is very stable. Now the Pearl River Delta is developing rapidly, and the demand for electricity is very large, not only for industrial electricity, but also for residential electricity."

Electricity?

Ma Shimin, Li Caixin and others were a little surprised.

They also thought about these, but electricity investment requires a lot of investment.

The income from electricity is relatively stable. If there is no domestic policy support, it will be difficult.

"Also, I can tell you. Last year, when I was invited back to Yanjing to attend the National Day ceremony, the Kadoorie family father and son of China Light and Power, although they were not invited to Yanjing, they actually went up privately and were received by the old gentleman, which is enough to show the power and vision of the Kadoorie family father and son. Now what we want is to compete with them for this business."

In fact.

In addition to the Kadoorie father and son.

There is also Hu Yingxiang.

Historically, there was another power company in Hong Kong.

It was Hu Yingxiang who first invested in the power market in the mainland and established the Asian Power Company in a joint venture with the domestic.

Among them, Shatoujiao Power Station was established in Pengcheng, namely Shatoujiao Power Station A and Shatoujiao Power Station B, both of which are thermal power generation.

This electricity is basically supplied to Pengcheng and Guangdong Province, which directly promoted the development of Pengcheng and Guangdong Province.

In addition, the Kadoorie family later cooperated with the domestic to establish a nuclear power plant in Daya Bay.

Among them, 80% of the power of the nuclear power plant is provided to Hong Kong, and 20% of the power is provided to the mainland.

Now, Hu Yingxiang has not made a move, and the Kadoorie family has not made a move either.

For Yang Ming, these are all their opportunities.

After all, as far as electricity is concerned, as long as you invest, it is just like a money printing machine, and it is impossible to lose money.

In addition, in Yang Ming's view, the abundant domestic hydropower resources can also be used as part of the development of the Hong Kong Electric Company in China.

When Yang Ming and Xia Boyin proposed it, Ma Shimin and others really couldn't believe that these two people had already thought of this.

Of course, Yang Ming has history as a reference.

Ma Shimin and others don't know that they always have a skeptical attitude towards domestic investment.

At this time, Ma Shimin said again: "Boss, even if the Hong Kong Electric Company can invest in electricity, there are no roads in the country, and transportation is very difficult. I'm afraid it will be difficult to develop."

If a place does not have enough electricity, fresh water resources, and transportation, it is indeed very difficult to develop.

This is why places with deep-water ports or developed transportation in the world are most likely to develop.

"Ma Shimin, you are right, roads lead to wealth."
