Sprinkle coins every day

"There are already people on the Internet saying that our Qinghe Technology has insufficient financial strength, and the previous marketing was aggressive marketing, and we did not accept financing. It is very likely that we will not be able to survive this round of competition." Jiang Yue is also unhappy.

Although it was impossible to find out who did it, it must have something to do with Scarlet Capital.

The means are subversive.

"If you want to have a rhythm, then give them a hard slap." Zhang Shuo is not used to it, "Has the consulting company come up with the preliminary budget for the Qingyun (Binhai) data center project?"

When registering Germination Real Estate, Zhang Shuo also registered a subsidiary by the way. The company name is Qingyun Data Service Co., Ltd., which is responsible for the operation and maintenance of the data center.

The data center project is also officially named Qingyun (Binhai) Data Center.

"Just finished, excluding the land price, the overall cost of the data center project is 12.8 billion, including 8.8 million equipment procurement costs." Jiang Yue reported.

Of course, this is only an estimated price, just for the convenience of external introduction.

The data center project is divided into three parts: the computer room, the power center, and the auxiliary office building. The equipment procurement cost accounts for more than two-thirds of the project cost.

In addition to the most expensive rack servers, there are chillers, diesel units, precision air conditioners, UPS and batteries, and data center power supply equipment, etc.

These are very expensive devices.

In contrast, the cost of construction and installation is not very expensive, after all, it is only a multi-storey frame building.

"That's it," Zhang Shuo quickly had an idea, "Tomorrow's groundbreaking ceremony will invite more media reporters to the scene, and take the opportunity to announce to the outside world, saying that the total investment of the data center project is 15 billion, which will shock those young people."

Adding in the 1.9 million to buy land, it is almost the same.

"You can have this." Jiang Yue smiled.

Didn't the outside world say that Qinghe Technology has insufficient funds?The investment in a data center alone is 15 billion.

Are you scared?

"By the way, how did you find the person in charge of Qingyun Data?" Zhang Shuo asked.

"Headhunting companies are still contacting and investigating, and the situation is not very optimistic. Talents in this field are scarce in China, and your requirements are so high, so it is difficult to find." Jiang Yue also has a headache.

"If you can't find a suitable one in China, then go to the beautiful country to find it."

It is impossible for Zhang Shuo to lower his requirements. It can be seen from the company name that Qingyun Data he expects is not just a company that simply provides data services for subsidiaries.

The future is to enter the cloud computing industry.

Data centers are a new type of infrastructure, and their status is crucial in an increasingly digital era.

However, in this regard, the country started relatively late, and the construction of data centers is relatively backward, including a serious shortage of talent reserves.

Specifically in the field of cloud computing, foreign giants such as Amazon, Microsoft, and Google have all come to an end early.

Amazon, for example, started the research and development of cloud computing in 2006; Microsoft even started the relevant layout as early as 2005. On February 2 this year, Microsoft Azure was fully launched.

Ari was the first to enter the cloud computing industry in China, and it started in 2008.

So time is still very tight.

But Zhang Shuo is not without advantages. At the very least, he is playing his cards right. He is 100% sure of the unlimited development prospects of cloud computing in the future, so he will continue to invest unswervingly.

Compared to Ali.

Tenda's response in the field of cloud computing was a little slow, and it almost missed this outlet.

In addition, Zhang Shuo is not short of money.

Germination Holdings has just applied for a 20 billion loan, and there will be a start-up capital reward for upgrading to level 8, which cannot be absorbed by the three existing subsidiaries alone.

I am worried that there is no new investment direction.

Therefore, Zhang Shuo did not hesitate to invest money in Qingyun Data.

It is precisely because of the high expectations that the leader of Qingyun Data he wants is not only responsible for the operation and maintenance of the data center, but also to carry out research on cloud computing.

When the data center is completed, a cloud computing research studio will be set up.

"Overseas, I haven't thought about it."

Jiang Yue was also limited by her vision. After realizing the problem, she immediately made amends, "I'll go to a headhunter later and ask them to go to the beautiful country directly to see if they can directly poach people from Amazon and Microsoft."

"Don't worry, it's better to lack than to overuse."

The data center project has just started, and Zhang Shuo is not in a hurry.

"By the way, you have been officially selected. The award ceremony is scheduled for December 12th, which is this Saturday night. Don't forget to attend then." Jiang Yue reminded.

"Understood, you will go with me then."

Now that he has decided to go to the front of the stage, Zhang Shuo doesn't shy away from anything. Besides, it is an official ceremony, so it is impossible not to participate.

"Row."

Jiang Yue has long been used to such big scenes, "Do you want me to help you collect the information of the other nine winners? It will be embarrassing if you get together when you have time, but you haven't even heard of each other's name."

"Who are selected?" Zhang Shuo asked.

"I brought the list, you have a look." Jiang Yue was very careful and had already prepared the list.

Zhang Shuo took a glance and was immediately attracted by one of the names.

Boundless - Wang Tao.

Was he in too?What a coincidence.

"Oh, how did you forget about Wujiang before?"

Zhang Shuo was a little annoyed. This is one of the most valuable unicorn companies in Binhai City. If he can invest in Wujiang in advance, the return rate in the future will be a hundred times, or even a thousand times.

It’s just about the financing process of Wujiang, Zhang Shuo of the original space-time has not paid attention to it seriously. I don’t know if Wujiang has accepted financing from investment institutions at this point in time.

If the financing has not yet started, Germination Holdings can enter the market, then it will really be a big profit.

"Check the situation of Wujiang Company for me, especially the financing situation." Zhang Shuo solemnly told Jiang Yue.

"no problem."

Although Jiang Yue was a little surprised by Zhang Shuo's reaction, she obeyed obediently.

"Oh, right."

Jiang Yue almost forgot, took out an invitation card from the windbreaker pocket, and handed it to Zhang Shuo.

"You are this?"

Seeing the big red happy words on the invitation, Zhang Shuo was a little confused.

"It's not me, it's Zhu Yuhan's."

"Zhu Yuhan, is she getting married?"

Zhang Shuo felt very dreamy. The last time Zhu Yuhan had a "blind date" with him was only a month ago, right?

"Changed" so quickly?

"Yeah, you don't want it, and the family's conditions are not bad, so naturally someone wants it." Jiang Yue teased.

"But isn't this too fast?"

Zhang Shuo really can't understand, it's simply the ultimate evolution of hate to marry the party.

Is it worth it?

"Maybe I met true love."

In fact, Jiang Yue doesn't know much about the situation. Ever since she joined Germination Holdings, she has been very busy on the whole, not to mention maintaining a circle of girlfriends, and she can hardly even take care of family affairs.

"Hey, I won't go to the wedding. You can bring me a red envelope then." Zhang Shuo always felt weird.

"alright."

Jiang Yue guessed that Zhang Shuo would not go either.

Chapter 96 Groundbreaking Ceremony

Tuesday, July 12.

Before eight o'clock in the morning, a group of executives from Sprout Holdings and its subsidiaries, as well as 24 employee representatives, gathered downstairs in Feige Building.

Then take the bus to the data center project site.

When we arrived at the destination, plot 155 was still a wasteland. Weeds and rubbish were removed and the site was leveled. Temporary prefabricated houses had already begun to be erected on the west open space.

The scene of the groundbreaking ceremony was arranged by the general contractor Zhongjian Third Bureau Nanfang Company.

They are experienced in this area.

A platform was set up in the middle of the site, and the background board was supported by a steel frame, covered with red oil paper cloth, and the words "Foundation Laying Ceremony of Qingyun (Binhai) Data Center Project" were written.

Festive yet solemn.

The open space in front of the stage was also covered with a red carpet, the middle one was empty, and a granite foundation stone was erected, with big red flowers hanging on it, and a pile of sand was symbolically piled up around it.

Temporary awnings were set up on both sides, and less than a hundred red cloth chairs were placed.

When Zhang Shuo and his entourage arrived, representatives from the construction unit, survey unit, design unit, supervision unit and consulting company had already arrived at the scene ahead of schedule.

Party A's father has been properly treated.

The contacted media reporters also arrived one after another to start debugging the camera positions, and some of them were already interviewing.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang!"

As soon as Zhang Shuo got out of the car, the heads of all participating units rushed over to greet him. Seeing that Zhang Shuo was so young, although he was surprised, his face was full of enthusiasm.

These brains are not project leaders, but company leaders.

At least at the vice president level.

The South Company of the Third Bureau of Zhongjian Construction paid the most attention, and directly sent the general manager to participate in the groundbreaking ceremony.

Obviously, the drunkard's intention is not to drink.

These people are first-class people, and they have already found out clearly that in addition to the data center project under the name of Sprout Holdings, there are two big projects waiting to start next year.

Naturally, they hope to continue cooperating (earning) and cooperating (money) with Germination Holdings.

Especially the headquarters building project, even in the economically developed Binhai City, such super-large projects are not common, and every time one is won, it is a big achievement.

And if you want to get the follow-up project, in addition to performing well in the data center project and not losing the chain, it is undoubtedly better if you can take the opportunity to establish a personal friendship with Zhang Shuo, the big boss.

Hastily stuffed Zhang Shuo's business card.

Some invited Zhang Shuo to play golf on weekends, and some invited Zhang Shuo to go to Shanghai, Jiangxia and other places to visit similar super high-rise building projects that their company is undertaking.

It is a visit in name, but in essence it is a one-stop tour.

The arrangement is clear.

Zhang Shuo was not stage-frightened either, he shook hands with these bosses one by one and said hello, but unfortunately he didn't know any of them.

Fortunately, there is Zhu Zhenghong.

As the project manager of Party A, Zhu Zhenghong mentioned that he had done enough homework and introduced them to Zhang Shuo one by one.

The atmosphere is very harmonious.

Faced with the invitations from the bosses, Zhang Shuo was naturally a master of Tai Chi, so he easily handled them, and he was really not interested in socializing with these people.

Are you tired?

The point is that Zhang Shuo is too young, and it is not suitable to mix with a group of middle-aged men.

Not much in common either.

Even if you want to play, you can't let go at all, it's better not to play.

The bosses are also good people. After smelling the rejection signal from Zhang Shuo, they were not discouraged. It is estimated that they will focus on public relations Jiang Yue and Zhu Zhenghong.

It depends on whether the two of them can control the attack of sugar-coated shells.

A group of people were chatting, and two more buses came to the door.

"Mr. Zhang, the county leaders are here." Jiang Yue trotted over to inform.

"understood!"

Zhang Shuo didn't dare to trust him, and led a group of bosses to greet him at the door. The leader was Lu Chaoyang, the chief official of Houhai, and the leaders of Houhai Construction Bureau, Quality Supervision Bureau and other related units.

"County Lu, welcome!"
