The richest man

The top management of China Energy Company did not dare to slack off in the slightest on Zhang Jun's order.

Immediately after the meeting, investigations into the wind power market were started, with the intention of opening up the upper and lower industrial chains of wind power as soon as possible through acquisitions.

Right now, in the domestic wind power field, foreign giants still occupy 50% of the market share.

Zhang Jun wants to integrate resources and defeat the foreign giants Siemens Gamesa, GE and Vestas.

In order to speed up the layout, Zhang Jun gave China Energy Corporation $360 billion in financial support.

Zhonghua Energy Company also quickly identified acquisition targets, including Goldwind Technology, Envision Energy, Mingyang Intelligent, Shanghai Electric, Tianshun Wind Energy, Daikin Heavy Industry, Yunda Wind Power, CRRC Wind Power and Sany Heavy Energy.

Some are state-owned enterprises, and it is difficult to acquire them, but no matter what, they must be purchased by the manufacturer.

China Energy Company took swift action and organized multiple acquisition teams to issue acquisition invitations to these companies at the same time.

At the same time, China Energy Corporation published recruitment information on the Internet, sincerely inviting talents in the wind power field to join.

Needless to say, China Energy's actions immediately caused a sensation in the industry and the media.

It even made it to the Weibo hot search list.

Seeing this, domestic netizens unanimously expressed their support.

"China Energy Company is a company under the name of Zhang Jun. It has strong financial resources and advanced technology. If it integrates and builds the entire wind power industry chain, it will definitely make my country occupy a pivotal position in the wind power market."

"Yes, maybe our country's wind power technology will surpass foreign countries soon, and our country will also become the world's largest exporter of wind power products!"

"..."

Affected by this, the stock prices of many listed companies such as Goldwind Technology, Tianshun Wind Energy, Daikin Heavy Industry, Envision Energy, Mingyang Intelligent, and Shanghai Electric soared.

However, the stock prices of many wind power companies have plummeted, especially the three giants "Siemens Gamesa", "GE" and "Vestas".

Many people believe that once China Energy Corporation has integrated its resources, the good days of the three giants will come to an end, and they will definitely not be able to compete with China Energy Corporation.

The foreign media also bad-mouthed Siemens Gamesa, GE and Vestas, and the stock prices of the three companies fell for more than a week.

During this period, China Energy Company has already contacted companies such as Goldwind Technology, Envision Energy, Tianshun Wind Energy, Daikin Heavy Industry, Mingyang Intelligent, Shanghai Electric, Yunda Wind Power, CRRC Wind Power, and Sany Heavy Energy.Due to the generous spending of China Energy Corporation, shareholders of some companies are very excited.

In addition, apart from being satisfied with the price, they also have another concern. Once China Energy enters the wind power market, the pattern of the wind power market will definitely change.At present, their company can still make money, but they can't guarantee that their company will continue to make money after the China Energy Company comes in.Instead of this, it is better to sell the company at a high price and take it easy.

Take the photovoltaic market as an example. Since China Energy Corporation entered the photovoltaic industry, other photovoltaic giants have suffered heavy losses and lost a large amount of market share.

Perhaps based on this idea, China Energy's acquisition went very smoothly.

Goldwind, Mingyang Smart, Yunda Wind Power and other companies have been acquired one after another.

These companies not only specialize in wind power, but also get involved in the development of hydropower, photovoltaic power generation and other renewable energy projects.

Through this acquisition, China Energy Company not only has more technology accumulation, but also gets involved in more renewable energy fields.

……

For more than three months in a row, there have been frequent rumors in China that China Energy Corporation spent huge sums of money to acquire a certain company.

China Energy Corporation has become extremely busy at this time, not only to acquire these companies, but also to integrate resources, optimize and rationally utilize resources, concentrate efforts, and develop more advanced wind power technology.

The deeper the understanding of the wind power market, the more Zhang Jun felt a deep pressure.

In the past ten years, although my country's wind power industry has achieved a desperate counterattack against foreign manufacturers such as Siemens Gamesa and Vestas, the weak foundation of the industrial chain is still a hidden worry, and key component technologies are controlled by foreign countries.

The main bearing of wind turbines is the core hub of wind turbines. As one of the two most difficult parts of wind turbines to be localized, the domestic market for wind turbine bearings is still half occupied by foreign companies.The high-end wind turbine shaft market has long been monopolized by foreign companies such as SKF, FAG, Rothe Erde, and Schaeffler.

With the vigorous development of offshore wind power and the increasingly obvious trend of large megawatts, the demand for collaborative innovation in the industrial chain is becoming more and more urgent, and this is also the purpose of Zhang Jun's acquisition of so many wind power companies and integration of resources.

China Energy Company has sufficient funds. After integrating resources, it can speed up the research of key core technologies, integrate breakthroughs in parts, units, sea shipment, operation and maintenance, etc., and speed up the development of main bearings, control systems, large-scale and The R&D and application of key components such as lightweight blades and high-voltage DC submarine cables will improve the localization rate on the basis of ensuring safety and reliability.

In order to speed up research and development, China Energy Company has started a crazy money-burning mode.

It costs 15 billion U.S. dollars every month, and a large number of talents from all over the world join China Energy Corporation every day.

At the same time, China Energy Corporation also started site selection work, planning to build offshore wind power stations on the sea.

Offshore wind power construction has a complex environment, large investment scale, and high technical requirements, and has become a new high ground for global power technology competition.

……

……

"China Energy's entry into the wind power market is really adding to the disaster for us!" Johnny Jenkins, head of GE China, said worriedly.

Originally, the market share of the three major international wind power giants in China has dropped sharply, and China Energy has entered, so what other wind power companies have to survive?
Everyone present looked worried when they heard the words.

There is no way, Zhang Jun is standing behind China Energy Company.

And Zhang Jun is a legend. Although GE is powerful, it is not worth mentioning in front of Zhang Jun.

"After China Energy Corporation integrated China's wind power companies, its strength has greatly increased. At present, we are still leading in technology, but I am most afraid that China Energy Corporation will also surpass us in technology. At that time, we may not only lose the Chinese market, but also overseas. Market share will also be lost..."

"It is said that Zhang Jun spent tens of billions of dollars on the development of wind power. This is really unimaginable! With so much money invested, I think he will soon be able to catch up with us in terms of technology!"

"..."

Everyone's fears soon became reality.

After integrating resources, recruiting a large number of talents, and accelerating technology research and development, China Energy Corporation made a huge breakthrough in the motor in the second half of 2014, and independently developed a 13-megawatt offshore permanent magnet direct-drive wind power motor, which can be called a modern project. Miracle! ! !
Among them, the center height of the hub of the wind turbine is about 145 meters above sea level, which is equivalent to a 50-story residential building.The blades are 110 meters long, exceeding the wingspan of the world's largest airliner, the A380.The sweeping area of ​​the wind wheel is about 4 square meters, which is equivalent to 5 standard football fields.Under the condition of an average annual wind speed of 10 m/s, a single unit can output 7200 million kilowatt-hours of clean electricity per year, which can meet the normal electricity consumption of more than 3 families of three for a year, and can reduce coal consumption by 15250 tons and carbon dioxide. The emission is 38018 tons, which is equivalent to reducing the emission of 25000 cars.

Off the coast of Xinghua Bay, Fuqing City, FJ Province, two 300-meter behemoths are turning lightly. Compared with it, the nearby cargo ships look very small.

"Boss, look, this is the first offshore wind turbine with a stand-alone capacity of 13 megawatts that we have developed!"

Dr. Fan Yingwu, head of the offshore wind power department, introduced to Zhang Jun.

Looking at the huge monster in the distance, Zhang Jun was very interested, and wanted to take a boat to get closer and take a closer look.

Soon, the ship arrived in front of the wind turbine. It was not that big when viewed from a distance before, but when I walked in, I felt that this thing was a giant. No wonder a single wind turbine can be produced for so many years every year.If thousands of 13MW wind turbines are installed in this sea area, the amount of electricity that can be produced will be extremely huge!

Zhang Jun was shocked, and silently calculated in his heart that the 2013 China Statistical Yearbook shows that there are nearly 5000 million households in China, and the average number of households is 2.8, which is less than 3.

And a 13MW wind turbine can meet the household electricity consumption of more than 3 families of three for one year.

In other words, the construction of 13 [-]MW wind turbines is enough to meet the normal household electricity consumption of the people across the country.

Of course, the scale of industrial and commercial electricity consumption is large, and public infrastructure electricity consumption, such as street lights, consumes a lot of power.

However, the potential of offshore wind power is huge, and the 13MW wind turbine is not the end point. China Energy will also develop stronger wind turbines.

"How much is the cost of this 13MW wind turbine?" Zhang Jun asked.

"Boss, the price of a 0.5-2.0 megawatt wind turbine on the market is around 90 euros per megawatt, but its production cost is about 60 euros per megawatt, and our wind turbine is 13 MW, plus many spare parts are produced by ourselves, so the cost is lower... If it is mass-produced, I estimate that the production cost of a 13 MW offshore wind turbine is only about 400 million euros. In RMB, that is nearly 3300 million yuan..."

Hearing this, Zhang Jun was shocked. Just this wind turbine cost 3300 million RMB, which is indeed a bit expensive!
"Can the production cost be lowered?" Zhang Jun asked with a frown.

China Energy Corporation wants to build a large-scale offshore power station, which can cost tens of thousands, or even 10,000+ wind turbines. If the production cost is too high, even Zhang Jun, who is extremely rich, may not be able to support it.

Dr. Fan Yingwu frowned, thought for a while, and replied: "Yes, we only need to strengthen research and development, master the core technology, and realize 100% localization of spare parts, which can greatly reduce production costs. At present, there are still many spare parts. Accessories need to be purchased at high prices from abroad,"

After Zhang Jun listened, he nodded slightly to express his understanding.

It seems that in a short period of time, the production cost has been difficult to come down.

"Okay, I know, from now on, expand the scale of the factory, and fully produce 13MW wind power generators!!! I plan to build an offshore wind power station in the East China Sea on the east side of the Donghai Bridge in Shanghai, with 200 sets of 13MW offshore wind turbines. Composition, it will be able to provide electricity to 600 million households after it is put into operation!!!”

As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked.

"My God, 2600MW?! This is the world's largest single-operation offshore wind farm!!!"

Zhang Jun smiled lightly, "What is this? It's only 2600 megawatts. After finishing this project, we will build a larger offshore wind power station!"

After finishing speaking, he turned to Dr. Fan Yingwu and asked, "How long is the construction period of the 2600MW offshore wind power station project?"

"In general, the construction period of offshore wind power plants is more than one year, but our project is very large and it will take a long time, at least two years."

"Can't the construction period be shortened?" Zhang Jun frowned.

"If there are enough people, it can be completed within a year!" Dr. Fan Yingwu thought for a while and replied.

China Energy has acquired so many wind power companies, and it has sufficient personnel, even a little bloated. If they are sent to build offshore wind power stations, the speed of construction can be accelerated.

Usually after one wind turbine is installed, other wind turbines are installed, but Zhonghua Energy can completely install dozens of wind turbines at the same time.

It costs a lot of money, but it saves time. The sooner the offshore power station is put into use, the sooner it can generate benefits.

It's not that other companies don't want to do this, it's just that their strength doesn't allow it.

After this day, the wind turbine factory began to expand its scale, driving the development of the entire industrial chain.

The expansion of production requires recruitment, and the employment problem of several 10 people has been solved in a short period of time.

As long as the Shanghai Donghai Bridge offshore power station is built, it will shock the whole world after all. At that time, those countries that want to build offshore power stations will seek cooperation from China Energy Corporation, and orders will continue to pour in.

……

Colleagues at home and abroad were stunned when they saw China Energy's expansion of production and aggressive recruitment of workers.

The number of workers recruited has been several times that of the original.

"Is Zhonghua Energy crazy? Hiring so many workers!"

A strong sense of crisis welled up in everyone's heart.

"I feel that the situation is not good. It seems that something bad is about to happen. I suddenly regretted it. When China Energy Corporation wanted to buy my company, I should have sold it... Now I am always worried, afraid My company couldn't compete with the other party, and eventually went bankrupt..."

"Since Zhonghua Energy entered the wind power market with a high profile, many old customers no longer choose to cooperate with us. In their view, Zhonghua Energy has more strength, better technology, and more security."

When everyone heard this, they all sighed.

The outside world just looks for Zhang Jun, and thinks that Zhang Jun's company is the most powerful, and Zhonghua Energy Company is not in vain, but a world-renowned energy giant company.

At this time, these colleagues did not know that China Energy Company had developed a 13MW wind turbine, otherwise, they would definitely faint in the toilet.

A large-scale engineering project can often greatly stimulate the development of the economy and the industrial chain.

Although the number of 100 13MW offshore generators is small, it is not easy to build. The investment has exceeded 66 billion yuan. This is the cost of self-production and self-use. If it is sold, it will cost at least 200 billion yuan.

This is just an offshore power station. Zhang Jun wants to build offshore power stations in all coastal areas of the country. Rows of huge fans stand on the sea in the coastal areas of China. Whenever the sailors or tourists passing by see this scene, they will be shocked. Shocked!
……

At the beginning of November 2014, the construction of the new factory was completed, and then the large-scale production of 11MW wind turbines began.

到了2014年12月1号，首批50台13MW风力发电机已经生产完成。

China Energy Company immediately launched the Shanghai Donghai Bridge offshore power station project.

The mighty fleet is driving towards the destination with 13MW wind turbines, like a majestic dragon, which can't be seen at a glance.

Such a sensational scene naturally attracted the attention of the media and colleagues.

Immediately, they were shocked.

"The length of such a huge blade is probably more than 100 meters!"

The blade length of a general offshore generator is only tens of meters.

The longer the blade length, the larger the swept area of ​​the wind rotor, thereby producing more electricity.

Of course, the longer the blade, the higher the technical difficulty and requirements.

Ordinary enterprises cannot produce such products.

"China Energy's wind turbines are unusual. They should exceed 8MW, and may even reach 10MW...It's really scary!"

China's seamount wind power stations are most commonly wind turbines of several MW.

A single machine reaching 10MW can be called an industrial miracle.

Everyone never expected that the offshore wind turbine developed by China Energy Company has reached the level of 13MW, which is at the international leading level.

While colleagues were discussing, China Energy Corporation announced that it would build a large-scale power station consisting of 200 13MW offshore wind turbines on the east side of Shanghai Donghai Bridge!
As soon as the news came out, domestic wind power companies were stunned.

We are still playing with a few MW offshore wind turbines, you have already developed a 13MW offshore wind turbine, the gap is so big!
The three international wind power giants can't help but feel great pressure at this time. The 13MW offshore wind turbines can already be compared with them, and they have only developed a capacity of 13 MW or 12 MW.

But the problem is that the production plant of Zhonghua Energy Company is in China, and it covers the entire industrial chain, so the production cost is extremely low.

In terms of price, the three giants are completely unable to compete with China Energy Corporation. It is foreseeable that China Energy Corporation will compete fiercely in overseas markets in the future and crazily snatch their orders.

"I think that at this point, if companies want to survive, they must build factories in China to reduce production costs."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone immediately affirmed it.

In the past, they left factories in their own country to solve the employment problem in their own country, but now it is difficult for them to survive, and they don't even care about whether their compatriots in their own country can be employed.Move the factory to China, where there is a complete industrial chain, the production is convenient, and the production cost is extremely cheap.

As the saying goes, "dead friends will never die poor people".

The Big Three Siemens Gamesa, GE and Vestas began to move their factories to China one after another, increasing investment in China, and planned to produce 80% of their output in China.

As for the closure of factories in their own country and the unemployment of workers, that's none of their business, that's the government's business.

……

However, it is said that the construction of the first offshore power station of China Energy Company is in full swing. Under the scorching sun, the workers are sweating and working hard. It only took three days to install a 13MW offshore wind turbine.

The reason why the installation speed is so fast is that the offshore wind power installation ship developed by Wheelock Group has a total length of 216.57 meters, a width of 49 meters, a molded depth of 16.8 meters, a design draft of 8.5 meters, an operating draft of 10.5 meters, and a design speed of 14 knots. The effective deck load is 25370 tons.Equipped with Liebherr cranes, the lifting capacity is 5000 tons and the maximum lifting height is 175 meters.

At present, Wheelock is still developing larger wind power installation ships, and the future offshore wind power market is huge, China Energy Company has a very large demand for wind power installation ships, and at least hundreds of wind power installation ships are barely enough .

China Energy Corporation should try its best to capture the offshore wind power market at home and abroad, and at least occupy 50% of the market share.

Then, the importance of offshore wind power installation ships is of course self-evident.

With the help of Wheelock's offshore wind power installation ship, China Energy Company, which has the attribute of "infrastructure madness", built the first offshore wind power station in just over two months, and it has already started operation, and the power has been connected to the grid. To the State Grid, sold to the residents of the city of Shanghai for use, which greatly eased the pressure on electricity consumption in the Shanghai area.

"Damn it, the electricity price in Shanghai has finally been lowered, it's really commendable!"

"Hehe, it's all because we have the world's largest offshore wind power station near Shanghai, so the electricity price will be reduced."

"It's incredible to build a wind power station on the sea, it's amazing!"

"I went to see it by boat, man, that is spectacular! On the rippling sea, rows of super huge offshore wind turbines stand tall on the sea, like giant warriors guarding our sea area. Under the setting sun, with the sea breeze blowing, the huge paddle blades slowly turned, and the clouds dyed the sky red, outlining a magnificent and beautiful picture scroll, which is so beautiful that it makes people linger and forget to return.”

"Fuck, is it really so beautiful and magnificent? I want to see it too!"

Shanghai residents can't help but be full of curiosity about this offshore power station. Almost every day, ships sail to the vicinity of the offshore power station to watch and take pictures.

Of course, the impact of this offshore wind power station is more than that. It has shown the strength of China Energy Corporation both at home and abroad. Offshore wind power stations are simply unbelievable, China's infrastructure level is too strong!

For a time, many countries or companies wanted to develop offshore wind power stations.

Zhonghua Energy Company has received a large number of cooperation orders, and the factory has begun to work overtime to produce complete machines. Otherwise, foreign orders alone will be too busy. Zhang Jun intends to let Zhonghua Energy Company continue to build offshore wind power stations in coastal areas of China .

The total length of China's coastline is 3.2 kilometers, and some Chinese energy companies are busy.

While developing offshore wind power, China Energy has not slowed down the development of photovoltaics and on-road wind power.In the west, northwest and NMG regions, the installation of wind turbines is almost as much as the factory produces.On the land of China, in just a few months, tens of thousands of wind turbines have erected impressively.

Although the speed of burning money is super fast, but Zhang Jun makes money faster. Remember, his subsidiaries have a net profit of more than 2000 billion U.S. dollars a year, so there is no need to spend it.

Moreover, if the money is not enough, you can also get a loan from Standard Chartered Bank.

It's just that Zhang Jun currently has enough financial resources, so he didn't take out a loan from Standard Chartered Bank.

In the past year, due to the extreme expansion of China Energy Corporation, the development speed of China's renewable energy has been beyond imagination, and the power energy has become very sufficient, and it can even be said that there is a surplus of power.

What to do with excess electricity?A sharp price cut on electricity?This is not a good way.

The price of electricity is cheap, and it is easy to cause waste of electricity.

In order to consume excess electricity, the state has introduced many preferential policies to encourage the application of new energy products, mainly new energy vehicles.

On the other hand, start to reduce the production of coal-fired thermal power and reduce the emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide.

In just a few months, more than a dozen coal-fired power stations in China have shut down.

Come to think of it, if China Energy continues to expand at this rate, it won't take long for most of the country's coal-fired thermal power stations to close down.

The coal boss is rich?

Sorry, the price of coal is going to plummet.
