Chapter 315: Pengcheng Factory Laying Ground, Guests from All Walks of Life Visit
Monday, October 2.
Future Technology Group Yuecheng Headquarters, 9th floor of the headquarters building.
Hao Qiang sat in a spacious and bright office, leaning on the leather chair beside the floor-to-ceiling window, savoring the fragrance of green leaves while admiring the factory scenery outside the window.
The air conditioning and heating in the room were turned on just right. He had taken off his coat and was only wearing a soft and comfortable wool sweater.
"It's 2008, and 512 is not far away." Hao Qiang murmured to himself softly.
It has been three days since he returned to Yuecheng, and today is his first day officially back at the headquarters to work.
The company has been open for a few days since the New Year, but the tasks he has on hand are not heavy.
In his spare time, his first concern is the progress of primary and secondary school construction in northern Sichuan.
Ten minutes later, Hao Qiang put down the phone, feeling slightly relieved.
Some newly built schools have been put into use, but some projects are still being rushed.
According to the contract, he solemnly required that the last batch of newly built schools in northern Sichuan must be completed before mid-April and put into use before the end of the month.
We will never allow construction companies to delay construction and prevent students from moving into their new classrooms as scheduled.
After dealing with the school construction matters, Hao Qiang turned his attention to the stock market.
Since December last year, Moutai’s stock price has continued to fall, from a high of 860 yuan to the current 700 yuan, and there is a trend of further decline. It is expected that there will be a rebound in January next year.
If you invest at the end of this year, you may get a 20-25 times return by 2021.
Also catching his attention was Tencent shares.
It has fallen from its highest point of HK$67 to the current HK$40, and is still continuing to fall.
Tencent shares are one of the few that are expected to remain stable or even rise slightly amidst the impending financial crisis.
If you invest at the bottom in the next one or two years, you may get an astonishing return of 60-100 times by 2021.
Hao Qiang secretly decided that if the share price of Tencent's stock fell below HK$37, he would immediately entrust the financial team to buy it.
This time, he plans to hold on for the long term.
Given the difficulties in buying large quantities from the secondary market, he plans to have the team purchase shares from small shareholders.
He anticipated that during the coming financial crisis, some small shareholders might be willing to transfer their shares.
投资40亿元就可以差不多拿到5%比例，到了2021年时，就变成2400亿元到4000亿元。
"This profit, wow, it's terrifying!"
While thinking, a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of Hao Qiang's mouth.
Suddenly, his cell phone rang. It was Qiu Yuqing's aunt Lin Nan calling.
"Hao Qiang, you were on the Spring Festival Gala last time. The ringtone of the song you sang was very popular, and your old record sold hundreds of thousands of copies. Maybe your total profit this time will be tens of millions."
On the other end of the phone, Lin Nan was very excited.
"Oh, that's pretty good." Hao Qiang replied indifferently.
"From your tone, you don't sound surprised at all."
"I'm happy, really." Hao Qiang replied with a smile. To be honest, the revenue from the song didn't stir up any waves in his heart at all.
"Hmph, what a ghost! I know you don't think much of this little money. Okay, I won't bother you anymore." Lin Nan said a few words and then hung up the phone.
Hao Qiang looked at the hung-up phone and couldn't help but mutter, "Is it that obvious?"
Thousands and tens of thousands are not a small number!
However, the group's daily profit is more than 10 million yuan.
Therefore, the revenue from the song did not interest Hao Qiang.
It is worth mentioning that as the Olympics are getting closer, the song "BJ Welcomes You" has been sung more frequently in the streets recently.
When this song was released, Hao Qiang stated that individuals and organizations could use it for free, but it could not be used for profit.
The Olympic Committee communicated with Hao Qiang and planned to make the Olympic theme song sung by 100 singers, and suggested that Hao Qiang sing the second sentence.
Hao Qiang agreed to this matter without hesitation.
Originally, he was the one who registered this song first.
Two days later,
February 20th is a good day for breaking ground and offering sacrifices.
Hao Qiang chose this day to hold a grand groundbreaking ceremony for the Pengcheng factory.
The total investment of this ambitious project is as high as 500 billion yuan. The original planned land area was expanded from 3500 mu to 5000 mu to expand the green area of the factory.
Of course, Hao Qiang bought 8000 acres of industrial land.
The per-mu output value of lithium battery factories is very high, so there is no need to worry about the per-mu investment and per-mu tax required by policies.
Among them, the first phase investment is 180 billion yuan, including the first phase construction of the battery factory and the new energy vehicle factory.
The first phase of the lithium battery plant covers an area of 400 acres, with a planned annual production capacity of 40GWh and an investment of 80 billion yuan.
The first phase of the new energy vehicle plant covers an area of 1500 acres, with an annual production capacity target of 20 vehicles and a planned investment of 100 billion yuan. This investment does not include the expenses of the automobile R&D team and experimental costs.
In terms of funding sources, the Pengcheng government guaranteed a loan of 30 billion yuan, Hao Qiang raised 100 billion yuan on his own, and the remaining 50 billion yuan was allocated within the group.
This investment budget is quite generous, especially for lithium battery factories.
With the independently developed production line, the actual investment may only be 5 to 6 billion yuan to achieve an annual production capacity of 40GWh.
If super lithium batteries are produced, the investment will be even less.
However, the investment budget in the new energy vehicle sector is full of uncertainty.
If we are lucky, we might be able to get it done with 700 to 800 million yuan;
However, if R&D encounters a bottleneck, it may be difficult to achieve mass production even with an investment of 20 to 30 billion yuan.
"Investing in cars is too risky." Hao Qiang sighed many times.
He remains optimistic about the market outlook, but believes that selling 20,000 to 30,000 new cars in the first year of their launch would be quite good.
In the minds of Chinese people, making cars can be said to be the dream of many entrepreneurs.
Real estate bosses, mobile phone bosses, air conditioner manufacturers... all want to get a piece of the pie.
It seems that car manufacturing is not a manufacturing industry, but more like a financial industry.
It is true that in the minds of these outsiders, making cars is just playing with finance: going public and raising money.
But cars involve personal safety, so how can we take it lightly?
Therefore, Hao Qiang despises those who play with financial vehicles.
Now that he finally has influence in the industry, he will set the threshold higher.
Because the quality of the cars is not good, he does not plan to supply lithium batteries to these car manufacturers.
In the first phase of investment, the following buildings are mainly involved:
A 38-story office building with a floor area of 2000 square meters and two underground floors;
5 20-story staff dormitories, each covering an area of 2000 square meters and accommodating 2000 employees;
A four-story staff complex building, with staff canteens on the first and second floors and entertainment venues on the third and fourth floors;
Comprehensive sports facilities, including football fields, tennis courts, indoor basketball courts, and badminton halls;
There are more factories, mainly steel structure factories.
Considering that the project site is far away from the city, Hao Qiang decided to give priority to the construction of dormitories, office buildings and canteens to meet the basic living needs of employees.
Steel structure workshops are quick to build and can be started later.
He estimated that it would take about a year and a half for the entire first phase of the project to be put into operation.
On the day of the groundbreaking ceremony, the atmosphere was warm under the blue sky.
At around nine o'clock in the morning, guests from all walks of life arrived one after another:
Future Technology Group’s mid- and senior-level management team and two to three hundred employees;
Important officials of the Pengcheng government;
The leadership of CUHK and the department where Hao Qiang works;
Hao Qiang's classmate;
Future Technology Group’s business partners and construction company representatives.
It is particularly worth mentioning that Hao Qiang's parents made a special trip to attend this ceremony, making up for the regret of not being able to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of Yuecheng before.
When Qiu Yuqing learned that Han Qingying would be present, she chose not to come with a slight complaint to avoid causing embarrassment to Hao Qiang.
As the ceremony preparations began, Hao Qiang and his parents welcomed the guests.
Today marks not only the birth of a factory, but also the starting point for Future Technology Group to realize its ambitions in the field of new energy.
