The first thousand and forty-five chapters

, the reborn tech upstart

Kirin Industrial Group's revenue last year was 212 trillion yuan, with a growth rate of 14.6%. Although the growth rate was not as strong as before, it performed very well among many industrial companies.

According to their annual report, the global per capita electricity consumption reached 20,000 kWh last year, which means that the global electricity consumption reached nearly 26 trillion kWh.

It has exceeded the total power generation of the solar power generation facilities built by Kirin Energy Industry Group in the past few years. Ye Zishu did not expect the per capita electricity consumption in China to rise so fast.

If it weren't for the electricity generated by the thermal radiation energy-absorbing facilities in the Taklamakan Desert, there would still be a shortage of electricity in the country. He thought it would take at least a few years to reach this level.

In their analysis, the reason is that the domestic industry has turned to electric energy in an all-round way. Coupled with the large scale of domestic industry and the rapid improvement of residents' living standards, it is not surprising that the demand for electric energy is high.

In particular, residential electricity consumption has seen the largest increase. In the past, everyone worked hard to make money and spent money relatively frugally. Now the situation is different. In family life, energy consumption has naturally increased a lot.

Fortunately, these are clean electricity and will not cause serious impact on nature, and this situation is also something that Kirin Energy Industry Group is happy to see.

In order to cope with the possible rising energy demand in the future, they plan to build 30 controllable nuclear fusion power generation bases in the country, and build a base in almost every province.

The construction of the controllable nuclear fusion power generation base will be constructed in multiple phases. The first phase will be constructed with an annual power generation capacity of 10 trillion kWh to meet the demand for electricity for a period of time in the future.

According to this standard, the average generating power of each controllable nuclear fusion power generation base is 40 million kilowatts, and the total generating power is 1.2 billion kilowatts.

Compared with solar power generation facilities, controllable nuclear fusion can generate electricity almost around the clock. Due to its reliable technology and high stability, the average annual power generation date can reach 360 days.

This also marks that my country's energy has gradually shifted from the previous solar energy to the controllable nuclear fusion power generation mode, and the average cost per kilowatt-hour of electricity is also lower than the cost of solar power generation.

According to their construction cycle, it will take three years to complete the construction of a controllable nuclear power plant unit. At present, the approvals of various power generation bases have been passed, and construction will start after the next year.

As for the overseas business of controllable nuclear fusion, none has been received so far. Maybe everyone still has doubts about the safety and stability of controllable nuclear fusion.

In addition, the construction cost is too high, and generally small countries cannot support it at all. If it is completely invested and operated by Kirin Energy Industry Group, the energy lifeline may be controlled by others.

Therefore, many countries actually have concerns, and big countries must take the initiative. They dare not let others control the energy lifeline. In addition, the current global energy price is not very high, so there is no such high urgency.

Although this situation is different from what he thought, he is not in a hurry. Anyway, Kirin Energy Industry Group itself has so many controllable nuclear power facilities to build.

After the construction of these controllable nuclear fusion power plants is completed, the situation may be greatly improved, at least there will be no doubts about safety and stability.

If there is a problem with this, the relevant state departments will not approve so many power generation bases, and Kirin Energy Industry Group will not display some technical details.

However, there is no need to keep such secrets to the relevant domestic departments. In the future, it is believed that the issue of energy security will hinder their overseas business development.

It may be to solve the problem of stray pets in cities, or to increase domestic industrial output. Last year, almost all cities in China banned pets.

This gave opportunities for the already well-developed robot pets, and also allowed Kirin Basic Industries Group's robot pet business to hit a new high in domestic sales, reaching 50 million units.

Including the robot pets sold before, there is one robot pet in every three households on average, but the price of the robot pet has also been reduced a lot, and the average selling price has dropped to 150,000 yuan.

The greater the output of industrial products, the lower the manufacturing cost. Lowering prices will not reduce their profit margins, and it will further popularize robot pets.

If there is still such a high sales volume this year, they plan to further reduce the price of the robot pet, and plan to lower the minimum price to 100,000 yuan, so that almost every family will not have a big burden.

Of course, according to their plan, a new robot manufacturing technology will be introduced at that time, that is, using the new manufacturing technology he gave a while ago.

Compared with the old technology, the robot pets produced by the new technology are more realistic, and even professional organizations cannot detect the difference.

At that time, it can form a high-low match with the existing robot pets, continue the rapid development of robot pets, and meet various needs of the market.

More than 5 million units have also been sold in overseas markets. Last year, they exported robot pets for the first time, which caused quite a stir abroad, but the export price has not been lowered, and the minimum price is 200,000 yuan.

In fact, there are not many secrets on the robot pets, mainly bionic materials and bionic brains. As for the intelligent program, they have no way of obtaining it.

In fact, even if they do not export, it is very easy for them to obtain these samples. After all, as long as they are sold in the civilian market, they should not think about keeping them secret through embargoes. For more benefits, there will always be someone who will help.

The reason why they did not export before is mainly due to insufficient production capacity, and the domestic market needs to be prioritized. After so many years of development, this industrial chain has become very mature and has the conditions for export.

What surprised him was the Qilin Agricultural Development Group, which is developing crops that directly use electricity as energy, getting rid of the dependence on ordinary sunlight.

This idea is very novel, and Ye Zishu's eyes are brightened after reading it. What he is afraid of is that researchers will follow the old ways and dare not make revolutionary breakthroughs.

Since even oil and natural gas can be produced directly with electricity, why can’t crops be produced directly with electricity? There is no requirement that photosynthesis is required.

If their plan is successful, future crop production can really be placed in the building, or even produced in any place that can provide energy, and agriculture will also usher in a new development pattern.

According to them, the purpose of this project is to provide fresh agricultural products to interstellar ships, so that people navigating in space can always eat fresh fruits and vegetables.

In addition, the planting density of crops is much higher than in the natural state, while the growth cycle is more adjustable, and the yield will be much higher than the current agricultural production model.

The space inside the interstellar ship is very precious, and it is very important to be able to meet the needs of life with a smaller space. This is the fundamental reason for their birth of this idea.

In addition to the Kirin Agricultural Development Group, the Kirin Industrial Group is actively doing supporting research and development in order to ensure that the interstellar ships can sail in space for a long time.

For example, Kirin Food Industry Group is developing small and micro food production technology, and also wants to complete food processing and production tasks with the smallest volume.

Another example is Kirin Textile Industry Group, which is also developing textile and clothing technology that can be produced on interstellar ships, so that no matter how long the voyage is, there is no need to worry about running out of clothes or quilts.

If you just wander around the solar system, it may not be necessary to do so, but if you want to travel across the stars, these studies are very important.

The recycling and reproduction of resources is an essential technology for interstellar voyages. Otherwise, after more than ten years or even decades of voyage, if the supplies are found to be insufficient, it will be completely discontinued.

The revenue of Baihu Technology Co., Ltd. last year was 8 trillion yuan, which has been greatly improved compared with the past. The space tourism project has brought them huge benefits.

Even if Tidal Investment Company is sitting on its laurels, it has huge profits every year. Their assets are very large, and they make a lot of money every year just from the profits they get from these assets.

Last year, Tidal Investment’s total revenue was 15 trillion yuan, and most of the revenue was passively increased. If they hadn’t intentionally controlled the growth of active revenue, their total revenue would have been even larger.

As for the other businesses under the Tidal Group, I won’t introduce too much here, because as long as other businesses don’t risk their lives, they are basically profitable transactions.

Not to mention other things, their international currency system earned 1.5 trillion universe coins last year, which is 4.5 trillion yuan when converted into RMB. Among them, the previous run wave brought them nearly half of the income.

The company with the fastest revenue growth last year, apart from Baihu Technology, was Taiji Group. Last year, its total revenue reached 115 trillion yuan, breaking through the 100 trillion mark for the first time.

The main contribution to their revenue growth is anti-aging drugs, which were launched in the middle of last year. By the end of the year, 600 million people have used anti-aging drugs, which is 18 trillion yuan in revenue.

The second largest growth contributor is medical beauty. Last year, they provided medical beauty services to 50 million users around the world, doubling the growth from last year.

In addition to other new pharmaceutical and medical equipment businesses, which are generally growing, and the scale of social security funds is also increasing year by year, it is not surprising to have such revenue.

Taiji Group's non-disease treatment business is the bulk of their revenue. This is what Ye Zishu deliberately did from the beginning, because the disease treatment business will be greatly restricted by the market.

And based on humanitarian considerations, they can't pursue profits too much in this regard. If Taiji Group wants to break through the restrictions of traditional pharmaceutical companies, it must vigorously develop non-disease business.

The non-disease businesses they launched are all aimed at the rigid demand market, and many products cannot be rejected at all. Not to mention the anti-aging drugs launched this time, the weight-loss drugs and hangover drugs that were launched before.

It has solved the problems of a considerable number of people. Of course, they have launched many such businesses themselves. The typical one is tooth regeneration technology. Compared with other dental technologies, tooth regeneration is undoubtedly the best choice.

Last year, the revenue growth rate of Taiji Group was 22.3%, and the net profit rate remained at 40%, with a net profit of 46 trillion yuan, which they deliberately controlled.

The net profit margin is easy to control. If you want a high net profit margin, you can increase the salary of your employees, or give more bonuses. If you don't do this, their net profit margin will be higher.

Xiaodangjia Catering Group added another 100,000 stores last year, and the total number of stores in China reached 600,000. However, it did not continue to expand abroad, and still maintained the level of 50,000.

Their operating income also broke through the 10 trillion yuan mark for the first time, and their net profit margin remained at 10%, with a net profit of 1 trillion yuan. They are still firmly seated as the world's number one catering giant.

According to their plan, they may continue to add 100,000 stores this year. One is that self-employed catering is gradually withdrawing from the market, and the other is that residents' consumption in catering is relatively strong.

All of their catering stores are now operated by general-purpose robots. Whether it is service or dishes, they can be unified across the country. This is the secret of their rapid expansion.

Now they have more than 300 catering chain brands, and the content of each brand is different, providing more catering choices for people across the country.

According to their estimates, there is still room for growth in the domestic catering market, but Ye Zishu dare not agree with their ideas, and asked them to take into account the changes brought about by domestic service robots in their opinions.

Generally speaking, people are more at ease about cooking at home. Even if the stores under the Xiaodangjia Catering Group are very standardized, they cannot completely dispel this perception of the public.

It used to be troublesome to cook at home, but with the help of domestic service robots, there is still no problem with home cooking. Many people may choose to eat at home.

Therefore, their market forecasts should be more conservative, and they should not expand quickly and blindly. They should do a good job in market research, analyze their catering data, and see the direction of the wind.

Wancheng Foundation’s revenue last year was 340 trillion yuan, of which real estate sales revenue was 210 trillion yuan, and regular operating income was 130 trillion yuan. Revenue continued to top its list.

Needless to say, real estate revenue has increased by 10 trillion yuan compared with last year. Among the regular income, the fastest growing space transmission service brought them 20 trillion yuan in revenue last year.

There is also the income from the fantasy world. Last year, they finally had a full year of income, which drove the growth of their regular operating income. The fastest growing part was their decoration business.

This includes income from decoration materials and services. Although the income from real estate sales did not increase much last year, the area was much larger. Residents were also willing to spend on decoration, which allowed them to earn a lot of money in this area.

They will have a good time for several years, until the sales of their houses are almost the same, and then they will become normal, and neither revenue nor net profit will be so exaggerated.

Last year, their net profit margin remained at 30%, which should be higher, but they invested a lot in the rural revitalization plan, which lowered their net profit by a few percentage points, and their net profit was 102 trillion yuan.

However, among these net profits, they have to repay the loans of their brother companies. In fact, they don't have so much money left in their hands, and it doesn't make much sense to keep so much money in their hands.

New Oriental Education Group’s revenue last year was 5 trillion yuan, with a growth rate of 78.6%, a net profit margin of 5%, and a net profit of 250 billion yuan, which is even lower than before.

In fact, New Oriental Education Group itself is also facing tremendous pressure. They want to transform their vocational schools into colleges and universities. The scale of investment is very large. It is already a bit powerless to rely solely on online education business support.

In the past, compared with domestic colleges and universities, they still had a capital advantage, but now this advantage is gone, and the student fee income is similar to that of public schools.

Although they are said to be private schools, they dare not raise the tuition too high, especially when there is a gap in their own popularity and strength, raising tuition is not a good way.

In this regard, the gap between the two sides is not large, and the gap is mainly reflected in the state's investment in higher education funds and the financial support that New Oriental Education Group can provide.

As the financial situation is getting better and better, the country can spend more money to support education. Although most of it is used for basic education, higher education has also benefited a lot.

The institutions of higher learning under the New Oriental Education Group are private institutions, so naturally they cannot receive state financial support. Even if they are transformed into non-profit institutions, they will not receive much financial support.

Unless these schools are converted into public schools, New Oriental Education Group is obviously not willing, and Ye Zishu does not have this idea. He actually wants to explore a different way of higher education.

In fact, since the year before last, the state’s support funds for public colleges and universities have surpassed that of New Oriental Education Group, and the gap has further widened last year.

So now the most urgent thing for New Oriental Education Group is to make money, but relying on the current online education platform, they can no longer achieve their goal of making money.

Just as home service robots began to enter thousands of households, their tutoring business also had the opportunity to develop smoothly, which was the main reason for the rapid growth of revenue.

Even so, the money they make is still incomparable with the country's investment in higher education. Last year, the country's investment in higher education reached 7 trillion yuan, and it may increase in the future.

However, in the foreseeable future, New Oriental Education Group’s total revenue will hardly exceed 7 trillion yuan. Last year’s revenue of 5 trillion yuan is basically the limit, and the growth rate will not be particularly high in the future.

The tutoring service is currently charged at 20,000 yuan per year, mainly providing basic education services. If the fee is too high, it will be a bit unsightly, and it is impossible to increase it.

Last year, all families with children basically purchased this service, so the future growth potential is not great. If you want to continue to make money, you must develop new businesses.

Ye Zishu thought about it and felt that providing tutoring services for adults is a good development direction. Nowadays, many adults do not need to work, and they can recharge and study in their spare time.

Although self-study is possible, self-study is extremely difficult. Unless one has great perseverance, most people will give up halfway through self-study. At this time, there is a teacher to teach, and the situation is completely different.

Making money is one thing, and more importantly, he wants to dislike the intellectual competition among adults. People live for the sake of face, or else they just need to worry about food and clothing.

Now everyone's material conditions are similar, except for the education of children, they meet as adults to say hello, sit down and chat, and they can also talk about the results of their studies during this period of time.

This is much more advanced than simply eating, drinking, and having fun, and it is more face-saving to speak out. With the formation of such an atmosphere, adults will be more motivated to learn, which is of great benefit to social development.

There are about 800 million people in the country who need to be re-educated. This is already harsh. If young people with high school education are included, the number will be even higher.

As for the elderly, it can be advocated to live and learn from old age, especially the emergence of anti-aging drugs, so that the elderly in the past have become lively and energetic like young people.

Therefore, he believes that there are more than 400 million service needs across the country. Based on the annual education service fee of 20,000 yuan per service, this is a market of 8 trillion yuan.

Even if it is not calculated according to the ideal state, if the service fee is calculated according to the level and category of knowledge, there is a market of about 5 trillion yuan, which is not small.

Coupled with the existing business revenue, New Oriental Education Group can directly achieve a revenue breakthrough of 10 trillion yuan. With this money, its higher education investment will no longer be at a disadvantage.

The teaching content is not limited to book knowledge, and customized education services can be realized. For example, if someone wants to understand Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching", they can specifically provide knowledge explanations on "Tao Te Ching".

It can also provide social practice education, such as social etiquette, speech skills, etc., which will help improve the public's personal social image and maintain good social relationships.

It can be said that any knowledge that can be used to teach can be included in the service scope. If you feel that the annual fee is not appropriate, then you can charge according to the course content, and you may earn more.

He sorted out these ideas and handed them over to New Oriental Education Group, and even briefly explained the marketing methods. He called this plan the "Knowledge Life" plan.

He even talked about his mother's learning experience. His mother's starting point is low enough. She never went to school since she was a child, and she has worked in farm work for half her life. She is an out-and-out farmer.

What's more, her sons and daughters are all successful in their careers, and it stands to reason that they should take care of their lives, but they still start with simple literacy. In just two or three years, they have completed all basic education courses, and now they have begun to study higher education content.

If this story is written well, it will definitely have a great effect as a publicity. Look at how the mother of the richest man studies hard. The sons and daughters of the family are all outstanding, and it is not without reason.

Although Ye Zishu doesn't like to use his mother as a means of publicity to set a benchmark, but in order to make the plan more smoothly implemented, he feels that it is worth making appropriate sacrifices.

His mother should not be too objectionable. His mother is currently studying education. Teaching and educating people should be one of his mother's ideals. Otherwise, in his family's situation, studying economics, finance, and management is better than this.

Of course, it does not rule out that his mother is proud of the achievements of her four children, and she thinks that she is good at teaching, so she pays more attention to education.

He also just guessed, and did not ask in person, everyone is free to learn what content, including their own parents and siblings.

Even when his younger siblings filled out their volunteers, he was just a suggestion, not a mandatory requirement. Everyone has the right to decide their own future in life.

As long as their attitude towards life is positive, others have no right to say anything, so when he found out that his mother was studying education, he was just surprised and didn't ask too much.

I believe his mother doesn't mind using her as an example, but he still plans to communicate with his mother later, no matter how reasonable his mother is, he can't just say nothing.

Generally speaking, he is still very confident in this plan, and it has solved his long-term heart disease, hoping for a good result.
