In terms of technological accumulation, the world's electric power is actually not as good as Hong Kong Lighting and China Electric Power. Novels.

Because Tianxia Electric Power is the cheap electricity purchased from the mainland, and then transmitted to Hong Kong through the transmission network for sale. Objectively speaking, it is just a middleman. Although it also has power plants, the power plant technology is not from Tianxia Electric Power, and Tianxia Electric Power is just an investor.

In comparison, Hong Kong Lighting, China Electric Power has always generated electricity and sold it by itself. After nearly a hundred years of accumulation, the two companies have a lot of technology and experience, and even have certain patents in their hands.

Moreover, Hong Kong Lighting and China Electric Power began to expand their markets in the 1970s. Two power companies have invested in Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and other places in Nanyang.

With these two points alone, Tianxia Electric Power will feel inferior.

Therefore, after deciding not to launch the "poison pill" plan, Xia Tian focused on the company's next round of development direction in technology research and development and external expansion.

In terms of technological research and development, I hope that Tianxia Electric Power can make achievements in new energy power generation, such as wind energy, solar energy, geothermal energy, marine energy, etc.

In the future, as traditional resources such as coal, oil, and natural gas are continuously exploited, these non-renewable resources will become less and less. According to experts' estimates, the earth's coal resources can only last for another fifty years.

Therefore, in your lifetime, you may see the scene of resource exhaustion, so it is urgent to develop new energy. If Tianxia Electric Power can make achievements in new energy, it is equivalent to controlling the future.

External expansion is actually a last resort. Because Hong Kong's market is too small, even if there is only one electric power in the world, it will only serve millions of citizens, and the profits are actually limited.

If we can go out and develop outside, then Tianxia Electric Power will have more prospects. Just like the mainland, we are now reforming and opening up, and we are carrying out infrastructure and promoting economic development. It is a time when electricity is short. If Tianxia Electric Power can participate in the construction, it will have the opportunity to serve tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of customers. At that time, will there be less money to make?

After listening to Xia Tian’s suggestion, Chen Xiangfeng nodded, “Mr. Xia, I know what to do.”

...

In terms of world energy, with the outbreak of the Kosovo War and the acceleration of the global economy, the consumption of oil and minerals has been strengthened, which has also caused energy prices to continue to rise.

For example, the price of oil was less than ten dollars per barrel at the end of 1998, but now it has not been halfway through 1999, and the price of oil has risen to fifteen dollars, up 50%. In addition, prices such as iron ore, copper ore, aluminum ore have also risen by nearly 20%.

The rise in energy prices has made Tianxia Energy profitable. In particular, the oil wells, Australian iron ore and intellectual copper ore have increased significantly.

This has also caused the market value of Tianxia Energy to rise steadily. Now, the total market value of its company alone has reached US$40 billion, making it the largest energy company in Hong Kong. And even on a global scale, it is also a top energy giant.

Summer is also very satisfied with the development of Tianxia Energy.

To be honest, every barrel of oil produced by an oil well and every ton of coal produced by a mine are made. Its continuous output is just right for the development of Tianxia Group. In the summer, a large amount of funds were made from Tianxia Energy.

"Mr. Xia, in the future, we are planning to continue to acquire coal mines in the mainland and apply for exploration rights for mineral resources in order to obtain more resources." Zhao Shikang, manager of Tianxia Energy, said.

With the transformation of the mainland economy and the reform of state-owned enterprises, the mineral resources owned by state-owned enterprises are now allowed to participate in private equity. In addition, in order to attract investment, the mainland also agreed to private capital exploration resources, which gave Tianxia Energy a great opportunity to develop.

Xia Tian nodded, "This plan is good. You can hurry up and do it, and I will help you."

"Thank you, Mr. Xia." Zhao Shikang nodded, "In addition, I suggest that the company can join forces and merge with international energy giants to increase our market share and voice."

Although Tianxia Energy is now considered an energy giant, it has to be said that it still lacks the right to speak. Prices such as coal, oil, natural gas, iron ore, copper ore, etc. are all set by other energy giants. For example, OPEC, Mobil, Shell, Total, BEIPO, Rio Tinto, etc.

They control the rise and fall of energy prices and determine the life and death of competitors. For example, they often hurt people with their original intentions and deliberately suppress oil and iron ore prices to a very low price, with almost no profit.

In this way, their competitors either lower prices or can only announce production suspension. After a while, their competitors will naturally collapse.

Tianxia Energy has suffered a lot in recent years. For example, the price of Australian iron ore was originally very high, making Tianxia Energy profitable, so it invested a lot of money to expand production.

As a result, as soon as the funds were invested, several major iron ore companies such as BEIPO, Rio Tinto, Vale, etc. collectively reduced their prices, making iron ore as cheap as cabbage. Tianxia Energy can't make money, and if it doesn't mine, the previous investment will be ruined, so it can be said that it is a dilemma.

Therefore, Zhao Shikang proposed to join forces with international energy giants to increase the voice of Tianxia Energy in the international market, which is actually a very good solution.

Mining giants like BEIPO, Rio Tinto, Vale, etc. were not so strong at the beginning. They also gradually grew and grew through continuous mergers.

"Yes." Xia Tian nodded, "I don't know, if you have a goal, which giant we are going to cooperate with?!"

"I think Midea Anran Company is good." Zhao Shikang said immediately.

After hearing what he said, Xia Tian was stunned, and he couldn't spit out an old blood.

Anran, this is a big cheat!

Zhao Shikang did not pay attention to Xia Tian's reaction, but continued, "Enron is one of the world's largest electricity, natural gas and telecommunications companies, with an annual profit of US$100 billion and a total market value of US$50 billion, making it one of the world's top 500.

If our company can join forces with it, not only will the company's market value double, but our market share will also expand by 15 times."

While he was talking about this, Xia Tian calmed down and made himself less excited.

Because An Ran is indeed a big pit, but at present, it is estimated that only he knows that it is a pit, and others should not know its true face. Since that is the case, then you might as well use this pit and trick a few people into having fun.
