Lawrence Lu was still very satisfied with this! Because he couldn’t leave any money for Dilong! Not even a penny! Our Lawrence Lu is very stingy!
As for the manpower costs of laying the cables, Lu Guansheng could also help Fan Wenshan save money. Qian Jiujin Qiankun had so many mechanical engineering teams sitting idle lately!
No need to eat or drink, no need to pay wages, and no need to worry about safety issues when climbing mountains and wading through water. Isn’t this perfect?
Compared with hiring someone to install the equipment, the commission for renting it is such a trivial expense!
"Director Fan, please calculate again. Doesn't this mean the difference in money is not that much?"
"Let me see?" Fan Wenshan tapped his calculator to recalculate the budget using his new method. "Hey! It was off by over 60% before, but after Mr. Lu's changes, it's probably only off by less than 10%!"
Ten percent is easy to get! Find a few investors and you can get the project off the ground without even taking out a loan!
Big companies all like to use the title of "official partner" and spend a little money to support the official industry. After that, they can get their money back and receive dividends for several years. How could anyone not want to do that?
Fan Wenshan suddenly felt that his throbbing temples calmed down, the resentment in his heart was smoothed out, and he could even raise his chin!
They don't support the new energy vehicle upgrade and want to bankrupt his project and make a fool of themselves, right? Then these people better open their eyes and see clearly!
Reforming state-owned energy is a historic event! Now that the feasibility plan has been developed into a detailed promotional plan, it's time to announce this historic milestone to the public!
Fan Wenshan represented the official position, Lu Guansheng represented the technology, Qian Youxian participated in the construction, and several investment companies also came to Kyoto to attend the official press conference in the evening.
Energy-related press conferences have always had representatives from Dilong at their disposal over the past few decades, but this time there is a fresh wave of talent, which makes the media even more excited!
You can smell gossip from far away, right?
This press conference marked the beginning of a new energy era for China, both officially and internationally, achieving energy conservation and environmental protection for one-fifth of the world's population.
For Lu Guansheng, this meant severing Dilong's energy monopoly with one stroke! From then on, the countdown to Dilong's energy sector profits began.
As for how long the countdown lasts, that depends on how quick Lawrence Lu is! When the cables are laid out and the reactor is built, that's when Dilong's profits will stop.
Of course, Dilong was not happy about this news, as it was the end signal of Dilong’s energy monopoly!
Now, apart from Jin Hao, no one has the technology of perpetual energy, so if you want to escape the fate of being replaced, getting rid of Lu Guansheng is the most direct way!
Lu Guansheng also knew that this press conference might not be peaceful, so he asked Heizi to set up full-space surveillance in advance.
In the north, the sun shines brightly after the snow and the fields are covered in silver, pure, beautiful and vast.
Although there are no peonies in the peony garden behind the live broadcast hall due to the wrong season, various colors of wintersweets are competing for beauty. The white snow bells are crystal clear, surrounded by clusters of purple blacktails, dotted among the red flowers all over the ground.
The snow on the hard ground in the garden has been swept away, and rows of folding wooden chairs are being neatly placed.
A velvet red carpet was laid on the podium, adding a festive red touch to the venue.
There was no need for Lu Guansheng to speak at the beginning of the press conference. It was basically just those "officials" talking and bragging.
Finally, it was Fan Wenshan's turn to speak. He briefly talked about his outlook, the five-year goals, and the international significance and symbolism of China's realization of perpetual energy.
Afterwards, he invited Lawrence Lu to the podium: "Mr. Lawrence Lu, the president of Jinhao, is the sole owner of the perpetual energy patent. I think having him explain it will be the most convincing! Let's welcome Mr. Lu!"
Amidst warm applause, Lu Guansheng walked up to the podium.
"What are you most concerned about?" Lu Guansheng asked with a smile as he took the stage. "Don't brag! I know it's not world peace, human history, or global environmental protection."
The reporters looked at each other, not knowing whether to agree or refute.
Most of the reporters on the scene were political and economic reporters from Kyoto. They interviewed many important figures and bigwigs and were usually quite serious.
Although he had heard a lot about Lu Guansheng's bizarre media performances and was mentally prepared, he was not as active as those reporters in Jincheng.
Fortunately, Lawrence Lu didn't expect their answers and simply continued, "I think we should all be more practical. Most people are actually concerned about electricity price fluctuations, whether there will be power outages, and how long they'll last, right? Anyone who doesn't care about this is either a wealthy person or a wealthy man! I give you a thumbs up!"
"Hahahaha!" The audience finally started laughing.
"Let's start with the electricity price, which is what everyone is most concerned about!" Lu Guansheng smiled. "Actually, it's quite expensive in the first year. The electricity price won't drop! But it won't increase either! And we won't be handing over the electricity bill to profiteers anymore!"
Where does the electricity cost go? Reactor infrastructure, cable routing, material transportation, technical recruitment... All these modifications cost money!
In Lu Guansheng's words, the construction workers, scientists, and architects all need to be paid.
How can a person who has to support a family do voluntary labor just because of the five words "can change history"?
"Starting from the second year, the electricity price will be reduced! As for how much it will be reduced, it depends on all the great people present here!" Lu Guansheng pointed to the officials from the Environmental Protection Bureau and the Energy Bureau.
"It's a good thing, right?" Lu Guansheng asked everyone, "These days, it's really rare to see something that keeps dropping in price! Doesn't it feel like you're getting a great deal?"
