Reborn as Zhao Ruilong of Handong, I will defy fate.

The sun was shining brightly, and a gentle breeze was blowing.

Zhou Weihong accompanied Zhao Ruilong for a stroll in the wetland park.

Along the way, he gave a detailed introduction to the current development status and future plans of the Jinghai High-tech Development Zone.

The wetland park beneath our feet is the core area of ​​the development zone.

Around this wetland park, Jinghai City has planned a large number of business offices, restaurants, accommodations, medical facilities, and educational institutions.

With such comprehensive supporting facilities, it is naturally very suitable for real estate development.

and so……

We didn't attract many high-tech companies, but we did build several residential communities.

Upon reaching the top of the artificial hill in the park, Zhao Ruilong took a closer look.

Several of these properties were developed by Huamao Real Estate, a subsidiary of Haifu Group, and constructed by Jinghai Construction Group.

"It seems that Haifu Group, as the largest private enterprise in Jinghai, is indeed very powerful!"

"Without a strong background and financial backing, how could they develop so many properties in the core area of ​​the development zone?"

Zhao Ruilong was secretly sighing.

Zhou Weihong greeted him with a smile:

"Mr. Zhao, there's a pavilion up ahead. Let's go in and sit for a while!"

"Okay, please go ahead!"

The two walked slowly toward the pavilion.

Zhao Lidong followed behind.

The other accompanying personnel naturally followed further back.

However, compared to when they first got off the bus, the number of 'accompanying persons' has quietly increased considerably.

Since Mayor Zhou accompanied an important figure on an inspection tour of the development zone, such a big matter could not be kept secret!

So after the news spread, the leadership team of the development zone rushed over and quietly followed behind.

When Zhao Ruilong and Zhou Weihong sat down to rest in the pavilion, only Zhao Lidong accompanied them.

The secretaries could only stand on the sidelines.

After drinking some water to moisten my throat.

Zhou Weihong put down the mineral water bottle and said with a wistful tone:

"The biggest problem for our development zone right now is attracting a leading enterprise that has a competitive advantage in a certain high-tech field to settle in."

"Without leading enterprises, it is difficult to attract related supporting enterprises to settle in, which makes it difficult to form a high-tech industrial cluster, ultimately causing the development zone to fail to take shape."

Zhao Ruilong frowned slightly.

He knew all too well that Zhou Weihong's words were actually a double entendre.

This tells himself that if he can acquire a leading high-tech enterprise, Jinghai City will definitely attach great importance to it.

This also indirectly implies to Zhao Lidong that if he wants to achieve political success and advance his career, he needs to get things under control with Huilong Group.

Zhao Lidong, eager to make progress, was naturally unwilling to let any opportunity slip by easily.

So he immediately followed up by asking:

"Ruilong, you helped draft the high-quality economic development plan for Handong."

"You were also deeply involved in the strategic investments in various high-tech industries afterwards."

From your professional perspective, what kind of high-tech industrial cluster do you think is suitable for Jinghai?

Zhao Ruilong smiled slightly.

"Jinghai's biggest advantage is its proximity to the sea!"

As the old saying goes, "Those who live near the mountains live off the mountains, and those who live near the sea live off the sea."

"So, with such a vast expanse of sea right here, we should develop high-end manufacturing industries in accordance with local conditions..."

Zhou Weihong laughed and said, "President Zhao, stop keeping me in suspense and just tell me the answer!"

"Okay, my suggestion is to develop wind power."

Zhao Ruilong raised his hand and pointed towards the sea.

"Our Dragon Kingdom has a long coastline of tens of thousands of kilometers and abundant wind resources."

"As the economy continues to develop, the electricity demand in our coastal areas will continue to grow."

“Continuing to rely on burning coal for thermal power generation will seriously pollute the environment and increase carbon emissions, while hydropower and nuclear power require large investments and have a slow return.”

"Even if we increase development in the western region and transmit a large amount of hydropower, wind power, and photovoltaic power to our coast through ultra-high voltage, it will still take many years."

"Therefore, driven by huge electricity demand and influenced by the trend of energy conservation and environmental protection, the offshore wind power market will certainly have a considerable output value in the future!"

Zhou Weihong was somewhat bewildered.

He never expected that Zhao Ruilong's idea would be to develop wind power.

It's important to know that Zhao Ruilong was involved in various fields in Handong, including electronic information, high-speed rail, precision manufacturing, special materials, and even domestically produced large aircraft.

Even in Lincheng City, where mineral resources are depleted, ecological agriculture is being developed, utilizing biotechnology to achieve high-quality breeding and disease control.

however……

The idea suggested to Jinghai was wind power generation.

It doesn't sound very high-end.

Zhao Lidong saw through Zhou Weihong's thoughts and immediately spoke up:

“Ruilong, I believe you that wind power has a promising market prospect. After all, the more developed the economy, the greater the demand for electricity. Our Jinghai has a huge power shortage, which is why we are in a hurry to build a large power plant in Xiawan.”

"But just how high is the technological content of this wind power industry? Can it form a high-end manufacturing industrial cluster with a market value of tens of billions of yuan in our Jinghai Development Zone?"

Zhao Ruilong smiled calmly.

"Let me answer your second question first. If the wind power industry is developed well, it will be worth far more than tens of billions of yuan. It can easily reach hundreds of billions!"

"As for the technological content... do you think wind power generation is simple? It's not as simple as sticking a pole, installing a motor and three blades, and making the wind blow it to generate electricity!"

At this point, Zhao Ruilong picked up a bottle of mineral water.

"You two imagine this: this desktop is a vast ocean, and I am your mineral water bottle, which is a wind turbine."

"The sea is rough and the seabed is covered with silt. I want to install wind turbine towers. What should I do?"

"Wouldn't we need a series of specialized marine engineering equipment to carry out the basic construction first, and then use a large offshore wind turbine installation vessel to securely install the extra-long wind turbine towers and the extra-heavy large wind turbine units?"

After placing the mineral water bottles down, Zhao Ruilong continued:

"You two should think about it carefully!"

"In order to make full use of offshore wind resources, should our wind turbines be built tall enough and the blades long enough?"

"As far as I know, the center of the hub of a 16-megawatt offshore wind turbine is more than 150 meters above the sea surface, which is equivalent to a 50-story building."

"And the length of a single blade in an 18-megawatt turbine is about the height of a 40-story building, and such blades and such wind turbines have to endure strong winds and rain year after year."

"To operate stably under harsh conditions for a long time, without being corroded, broken by wind, or fatigued, and to achieve extremely high power generation efficiency, do you think it would be considered high technology to manufacture such a product?"

Zhao Lidong and Zhou Weihong nodded in unison.

Just thinking about it is terrifying!

Under strong winds with speeds reaching tens of meters per second.

The blades, which are over 100 meters long, rotate continuously to drive the generator to produce electricity.

And it's well known.

The air at sea is highly saline, humid, and corrosive.

In addition, strong sunlight and large temperature differences between day and night can easily lead to a sharp reduction in the lifespan of materials.

Then we need to build wind power generation equipment that can operate almost year-round.

What advanced materials and manufacturing processes would that require?

"By the way, in addition to the wind turbine towers and blades that we can see with the naked eye, we also need to master permanent magnet generator technology, flexible DC power transmission and transformation technology, marine wind power resource exploration and environmental monitoring technology, and so on."

"In short, the entire wind power industry is extremely large and complex, requiring a large amount of advanced equipment and technology. It is an absolute high-tech industrial cluster with an annual output value that can easily reach hundreds of billions!"

After hearing what Zhao Ruilong said...

Zhou Weihong's puzzled expression gradually faded.

With an output value of hundreds of billions, the development zone should be able to thrive.

It shouldn't be as unpopular as it is now.

"So how should we attract investment and cultivate the wind power industry?"

Zhao Lidong raised a very crucial issue.

"Isn't this simple?"

"First, we will invest in building a large-scale offshore wind power project."

"Taking the project construction as an opportunity, we will attract relevant domestic and foreign enterprises to Jinghai."

"Once a certain industry has been formed, we will invest in larger-scale and more technologically advanced projects to drive industrial progress."

Zhao Ruilong's answer made Zhao Lidong very happy.

Ultimately, it all comes down to investment!

Moreover, it was Zhao Ruilong who proposed developing the wind power industry.

Therefore, he is naturally the most suitable investor for the first project.

Once the idea was proposed by him, and the project was invested in by him.

As the wind power industry in Jinghai flourished, it generated a tremendous economic impact, contributing substantial tax revenue and creating numerous jobs.

He was Zhao Ruilong's second uncle.

He has made a truly solid contribution.

So who can stop me from progressing?

Zhao Ruilong controlled the economic development of Jinghai.

Then Jinghai's future is essentially in its own hands, isn't it?

At this moment.

Secretary Wang hurried in and whispered a few words in his ear.

"What is he here for?"

Zhao Lidong deliberately spoke loudly.

Zhou Weihong immediately turned his head and looked to the side.

"what happened?"

"Mayor Zhou, it's like this, Guo Xiaoming, the general manager of Haifu Group, knows that you are here to inspect the development zone and would like to come and report to you on his work."

"Reporting?"

Zhou Weihong sneered, "Didn't those old men and women protesting with banners in the square of the Development Zone's government affairs center already give me the best silent report?"

"Without even getting out of the car, I, Zhou Weihong, could see how well Haifu Group was doing and whether the people were satisfied!"

Zhao Lidong waved his hand.

"Hurry up and send him back, and do a good job of resolving the issues with the residents whose homes are being demolished!"

"How can we allow so many elderly people to gather and protest in that square?"

"Could it be that they didn't strictly adhere to the standards for compensation during the land acquisition and demolition process?"

"Otherwise, why would ordinary people have such strong opinions? Why would they protest?"

Secretary Wang nodded repeatedly and turned to leave.

Zhao Ruilong watched the two perform silently.

I unscrewed the mineral water bottle and took a sip to moisten my throat.

It's likely that Zhou Weihong, standing to the side, was fully aware of the situation.

Haifu Group wields too much power in Jinghai.

It has become so arrogant and lawless that it has become somewhat disrespectful and lawless.

Since his background was too powerful, Zhao Lidong couldn't do anything about it.

Then let Zhou Weihong step in and give Haifu Group some serious pressure.

Knowing his second uncle's thoughts, Zhao Ruilong naturally didn't forget to add fuel to the fire.

“I see that many of the residential buildings around here were developed by Haifu Group.”

"If they have such power, why can't they handle those people being relocated?"
