Currently, with the popularity of solar tiles, solar streetlights are also gaining favor.
More and more cities are trying to purchase solar streetlights, with first-tier cities such as Shanghai, Shenzhen, Beijing, and Guangzhou being among the first users of solar streetlights.
The unique shape of the solar streetlights quickly attracted the attention of local residents, and many people stood under the streetlights discussing them.
"The city has replaced the streetlights. The tops of the lights are solar panels, which generate electricity during the day and provide lighting at night. This will save on electricity bills!" an old man said with satisfaction, marveling at how fast the country's technology has developed. Even the streetlights have become solar streetlights, capable of generating their own electricity for lighting.
"Solar streetlights can save electricity for the country and its people. It would be wonderful if solar streetlights were installed on roads in major cities across the country!"
"I just came back from traveling abroad. The city roads in developed Western countries haven't been equipped with solar streetlights yet. Our country is much more advanced than them!" a middle-aged woman said with a proud look.
"..."
At the same time, many local media outlets sent reporters to the community to conduct market research and interview many residents about their opinions on solar streetlights.
More than 70% of citizens expressed their support, saying that solar streetlights are technologically advanced and energy-saving. Installing solar streetlights on city roads not only improves the city's image but also brings practical benefits, making it a project that benefits the country and its people!
Some people feel that the old streetlights are still usable and there is no need to replace them with solar streetlights.
If there are few opponents, the local government's choice is obvious.
Without engineering projects, where do we get our performance and profits?
Wujiang Group has provided such a great opportunity, so naturally we must seize it.
Moreover, there is a tendency for cities to compete with each other.
With solar streetlights already popular in major first-tier cities across China, second-, third-, and fourth-tier cities have no choice but to follow suit!
In addition, with the current popularity of solar energy, local government officials in major cities will seriously consider whether to install solar streetlights.

Wujiang Photovoltaic Company.
The solar tiles and solar streetlights are selling very well, which makes the company's CEO, Luo Yuqi, very excited.
However, he was not satisfied with this and wanted to develop more products.
He sat in his office for a moment, thinking, why not develop solar floor tiles and solar panels for balconies?
Solar-powered paving stones can be laid on roads in major cities. When combined with lights, they become solar-powered paving stone lights, which can illuminate the city beautifully at night.
Solar panels mounted on balconies are specifically designed for residents of high-rise residential buildings. The solar panels are attached to the outer wall below the balcony, so that most residents in the community can also enjoy the benefits of solar power generation. As long as you have a balcony, you can install solar panels.
A solar panel mounted on the outside of a balcony covers an area of about 2 to 4 square meters. If there is enough sunlight, it can generate two to four kilowatt-hours of electricity per day, which can basically meet the electricity needs of an average family.
Luo Yuqi became more and more excited as he thought about it. Both solar floor tiles and solar panels mounted on balconies had huge market potential.
Immediately, Luo Yuqi opened his laptop, wrote down his ideas, and turned them into a complete business plan.
Technically, neither of these products presents any major challenges, especially the external solar panels, which are virtually straightforward. However, the solar floor tiles require a higher level of technical expertise, given that people will be walking on them. But this poses no difficulty for Wujiang Photovoltaic Company.
Luo Yuqi's biggest concern is how to promote the product.
The best solution, of course, is to seek help from the parent company, Wujiang Group.
Luo Yuqi spent more than an hour writing the proposal, providing a detailed analysis from various aspects such as product technology research and development, market feasibility, and future prospects.
Subsequently, Luo Yuqi sent the proposal to Zhao Ye for his opinion.

Zhao Ye is currently browsing company documents.
The group-buying, food delivery, bike-sharing, and ride-hailing markets are fiercely competitive, with no clear winner yet.
Of course, as long as you burn money, you will definitely get traffic, and Wujiang Group can't stop it. Some companies are delusional, thinking that they have received strong support from investment institutions, and they always want to challenge the number one position.
In the group-buying battlefield, after various advertising wars, tug-of-wars, and positional battles, besides Pinduoduo, three smaller giants remain: Lashou, Wowo, and Gaopeng.
In the food delivery market, Meituan is far ahead, but its pursuers are also formidable. Among them, Ele.me has emerged as a dark horse, gaining support from multiple investment institutions, including Goldman Sachs, Sequoia Capital, Hillhouse Capital, IDG, Fidelity Investments, and Blackstone Group.
In the shared bicycle market, Qingju Bike, under the Wujiang Group, has a significant advantage due to its first-mover advantage and favorable market position, making it far less competitive than its competitors.
The capital market doesn't value bike-sharing much; they prefer to invest heavily in the ride-hailing market, making the competition there extremely fierce and the level of involution is appalling.
Wujiang Group has also been burning through cash for development; however, it possesses a massive user base, allowing it to burn far less money than its competitors. Furthermore, Wujiang Group's products enjoy a high market share in third- and fourth-tier cities and rural areas. These smaller locations, with less competition, are able to generate profits, which in turn supports competition in larger cities.
Zhao Ye is now completely unperturbed, not in a hurry at all. He doesn't believe that the investment institutions behind those companies can keep providing them with funds indefinitely. Once these companies run out of money, they won't be far from bankruptcy.
