Happy times were always short.
At the end of the lunch break, Xia Shiyu first sneaked into the office like a thief and observed the situation in the hallway through the crack. After confirming that there was no one in the hallway, Xia Meimei dashed out and fled into her office in her high heels.
Seeing that no one noticed her abnormality, Xia Shiyu let out a sigh of relief. She fixed the bangs in front of her forehead and sat back at her desk. She took out a mirror from her bag and carefully checked whether there was any abnormality in her appearance.
Although she already checked herself in Jiang Chen's office, it was always good to check again.
However, what Xia Shiyu didn't know was that her lunch break couldn't be hidden from others. Anyone with a little bit of experience could see it.
For example, the assistant who served her tea and organized documents every day. Although the girl had just graduated, she only needed to glance at CEO Xia to know what happened during lunch break.
Some things couldn't be hidden, such as the blush on her neck and cheeks that hadn't faded, as well as the intermittent trance …
The girl also secretly estimated in her mind while she was making coffee for Xia Shiyu. The president hugged CEO Xia for at least an hour, and in this hour, he helped her at least climb two peaks …
Even if she had a hundred guts, she wouldn't dare to say anything.
However, looking at CEO Xia's' satisfied face ', the young lady couldn't help but feel amorous. She returned to her desk and began to fantasize as she sorted out the documents in her hands — if it was her in the chairman's office just now, would she have put on a posture of rejection, or would she have complied …
After Xia Shiyu left, Jiang Chen sprayed the office with air freshener, then put the scattered documents back on the table. Originally, Xia Shiyu planned to help him clean up, but Jiang Chen declined her kindness. Instead, he told her to go back as soon as possible in case she was caught up in the rush hour after lunch break.
There were very few employees on the top floor, but other than a few assistants, they were all executives of the group headquarters. If they were accidentally seen, it would be a loss of prestige.
In the afternoon, Jiang Chen met with the president of Guodian Group in his office.
"Haha, I've always heard of Mister Jiang's great name in the country. Now that I've seen you today, you're indeed a man of striking appearance! Let me introduce myself, I'm Jia Zhengrong. I'm representing Guodian to ask you about nuclear fusion power generation. "
When the man in his fifties saw Jiang Chen, although he was older than Jiang Chen, he didn't have the arrogance of an older person. Not only did he greet Jiang Chen with a smile, but he also took the initiative to extend his hand and introduce himself first. A few flattering words came out of his mouth.
From the gradual change in attitude of these state-owned enterprise bosses, Jiang Chen clearly felt the growing international status of Celestial Trade.
However, he didn't get dizzy from a few flattery. These people were all experienced people from the bureaucracy. It was hard to say if they were blind when it came to technical skills, but flattery and bureaucratic talk were what they did for a living. Whoever believed them would be an idiot.
For Mr. Jia Zhengrong's compliment, Jiang Chen only smiled and didn't take it to heart.
Australia and Malaysia took the lead in completing the laying of submarine cables. Just after the grid connection was completed at the beginning of this month, the electricity prices of the two countries were cut in half and began to gradually decrease. The countries that were still observing suddenly became envious.
The most spineless country was Nippon. The UA originally pressured the Nippon authorities to obstruct the construction of Sumitomo Group, causing the project that should have been completed at the beginning of this month to be delayed until now. As a result, when he saw the situation of Australia and Malaysia, the Prime Minister of Nippon, who had always had reservations about Celestial Trade, couldn't sit still anymore. He no longer cared about the pressure from the UA and put the construction of submarine cables on the agenda.
Even India, which was still idling in the Malacca Trench, threw the transmission cables into the water as if they were on drugs. They were striving to move cheap electricity from Xin over as soon as possible to alleviate the country's energy gap and dependence on fossil fuel imports.
As Jiang Chen expected, Hua finally couldn't sit still and sent out the National Electricity Corporation to contact him.
The average domestic electricity price was about 42 cents, and the export electricity price of Celestial Trade was 0.01-0.02 Xin New Dollars, which was about 10 cents in RMB. The difference of 30 cents per kilowatt hour of electricity was not to be underestimated. In industrial production, this difference would be infinitely magnified.
Take electric steelmaking as an example, one kilowatt of electricity could refine about 1.5 kilograms of steel. For 1.5 kilograms of steel, without considering financial subsidies and steelmaking technology, the cost of electricity was 30 cents higher than others. In the international market, the 1.5 kilograms of steel was 30 cents more competitive than others.
What about 1.5 tons? What about 15 million tons? With the increase in volume, the advantage of cost competitiveness would become more and more obvious. Sometimes it was not a matter of whether you wanted to change, but external pressure forced you to change and adapt to this ever-changing era.
As the world's largest electricity consumer, Jiang Chen certainly welcomed the National Electricity Corporation to discuss the submarine cable issue with him.
There was no need to discuss the establishment of a joint venture nuclear fusion power station. Jiang Chen made it clear that there were no plans to build any nuclear fusion power stations on the surface. Jia Zhengrong, who was rejected, was not surprised. Then the two sides began to discuss the submarine cable and the price of electricity export.
Jiang Chen directly took out the contract negotiated with other countries and discussed the cooperation plan with Jia Zhengrong.
In the end, the two happily reached a preliminary agreement. The two sides jointly funded the submarine transmission cable, and Celestial Trade would directly export electricity to the National Electricity Corporation. As for how the National Electricity Corporation would negotiate with the State Grid and at what price, Jiang Chen didn't need to worry about it.
As for how much each side would invest in the submarine cable, who would do the maintenance, and how much electricity would be imported each year, these details certainly couldn't be discussed in one day and needed to be discussed slowly. Jiang Chen left the rest of the negotiation to Xia Shiyu. He had to go on a long trip tomorrow, and he couldn't let Mr. Jia wait for him to come back.
"By the way, is Mr. Jiang planning to go to Moscow in a few days?" Jia Zhengrong put away the letter of intent and asked with a smile, "I hope Mr. Jiang doesn't misunderstand, I'm just worried about the contract …"
"That's right. But you don't have to worry about this, CEO Xia will be in charge of the negotiations. "
Although he didn't publicize it everywhere, his visit to Russia was no longer a secret, so Jiang Chen didn't deny it. What he wasn't sure was whether he wanted to ask this question himself, or if he was asking this question for someone else.
After hearing Jiang Chen's answer, Jia Zhengrong smiled and cupped his hands.
"Then I won't bother you anymore. When Mr. Jiang comes to the capital, please be sure to let me know. I'll be the host and make sure you enjoy yourself. "
"Haha, then we'll talk about it later." Jiang Chen smiled politely and watched Jia Zhengrong leave the office.
