Chapter 44: Huaxia Electric Grid (Chapter 15)
Tenzhi Technology, located in the Su City Industrial Park.
A banner hung outside the entrance of Tenzhi Technology: "A Warm Welcome to the Huaxia Electric Grid..."
Around 10 AM, a motorcade majestically entered the Su City Industrial Park, heading straight for Tenzhi Technology.
Chen Mengchuan and others, who had already received the news, came downstairs early to wait at the entrance.
The motorcade stopped at the entrance of Tenzhi Technology, and a group of people disembarked.
Xu Shuwei and Sun Zhongyong, leading the Tenzhi Technology personnel, stepped forward to greet them. Many people from the Huaxia Electric Grid had come this time. Not only were there many senior executives from the Huaxia Electric Grid headquarters, but also numerous general managers and directors from various major regions. In total, about 60 to 70 people had arrived. The delegation was led by three individuals: a senior executive, Li Zhongxia, and two chief technical engineers, Wang Guohui and Bai Jinghua.
After a brief welcome at the entrance, the group, guided by Xu Shuwei and Sun Zhongyong, entered Tenzhi Technology. The large conference room on the third floor was prepared with a discussion table. Everyone entered the conference room and took their seats.
"Manager Xu, Manager Sun, you have truly brought honor to Huaxia this time. Such a technology that benefits Huaxia and its people – who knows how many Huaxian lives it will change? Even the senior executives from above have praised Tenzhi." Li Zhongxia, a Huaxia Electric Grid executive around 50 years old, had a square face and the appearance of a simple, honest man from Shandong. He wore a plain Huaxia-style outfit, making him seem very approachable.
Sun Zhongyong shook his head, smiling modestly. "The road ahead for us is still long. You are the truly great companies that benefit the people and bring prosperity to Huaxia."
Chen Mengchuan, seated among them, grinned slightly. Sun Zhongyong had been quite reserved when meeting the provincial leaders a few days prior, but now he clearly appeared more natural and at ease.
After a few more pleasantries, they got down to business.
"What does the Electric Grid require from Tenzhi?" Toni asked, adjusting his glasses.
Li Zhongxia chuckled. "For technical matters, you'll need to ask our Manager Wang and Manager Bai. They are the most senior and professional power engineers at Huaxia Electric Grid."
"Old Wang, Little Bai, the specific technical details will be up to you two to discuss," Li Zhongxia said, looking at Wang Guohui and Bai Jinghua with a smile.
"Manager Xu, Manager Sun, and Mr. Toni, the current transmission technology from Tenzhi that we've encountered has a power supply distance of 17.3 meters. We're wondering if this transmission distance can be extended? And to what extent?" Wang Guohui inquired.
Toni glanced at Xu Shuwei, then slowly replied, "Currently, the maximum we can achieve is 17.3 meters. For further transmission distances, we are still in the research and development phase. If successful, we will be able to achieve stable transmission over a distance of 50 to 100 meters."
Wang Guohui's body trembled slightly. "Do you have confidence?"
Toni nodded, and a buzz of discussion filled the room.
"How much more research and development time is needed?" Wang Guohui continued to ask.
"If all goes smoothly, we can achieve wireless current transmission over 50 to 100 meters within 1 to 2 months. This is the second phase of our R&D plan," Toni stated.
Another wave of excited discussion and debate swept through the room. Many faces showed surprise, joy, and a hint of complexity.
"Can we participate?" Bai Jinghua, who was younger, couldn't help but ask.
As soon as his question was out, the room gradually quieted down.
Just as Toni was about to refuse, Xu Shuwei put a hand on his arm and replied with a smile, "Manager Bai, our R&D plan and progress are already on track. Moreover, these technologies are the core lifeline of Tenzhi. While we are very willing to have Huaxia Electric Grid participate, we have other rather complex circumstances. Therefore, even if technical personnel from the Electric Grid were to join, it wouldn't significantly help our progress."
"Another very important reason is that our wireless current transmission technology is broken down into dozens of modules for independent research and development. All data results and theories are stored in our core Artificial Intelligence system. This system has a core function that locks and encrypts all of the company's core technologies. Based on this core locking and encryption technology, no R&D personnel can access the complete technical information, thus allowing Tenzhi to effectively prevent any leakage or theft of technology. We believe that such core technology is enough to attract the covetousness of all major powers worldwide. Therefore, we must ensure the security of the technology and keep it firmly in Tenzhi's hands, in Huaxia's hands," Xu Shuwei explained slowly.
"Jinghua," Li Zhongxia said with a smile, stopping Bai Jinghua from attempting to say something further.
"This is excellent. Technology like this requires such locking and encryption to remain firmly in Huaxia. Huaxia's pride lies in having geniuses like you," Li Zhongxia said with great satisfaction.
"Everyone, before your arrival, we did some preparatory work, including some ideas on how the two companies might collaborate. Next, Toni will share and explain these to you," Xu Shuwei said to Li Zhongxia and the others with a smile.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Toni slowly pushed up his glasses and walked over to the large screen.
"Huaxia Electric Grid possesses extensive infrastructure. Undoubtedly, this infrastructure is the most crucial element in building Huaxian civilization and the cornerstone of Huaxia's prosperity."
"We have developed multi-phase collaboration plans for the three core components of the current Huaxia power transmission network: power generation, transmission, and distribution. With our current technological capabilities, we can only attempt cooperation in the field of the distribution system at most. I will first introduce the collaborative concept for this part."
"For household electricity consumption in Huaxia, after leaving the power station, it goes through layers of transmission, distribution, transformation, and supply. Along these routes, we can use the distribution rooms in residential communities as nodes for wireless transmission, delivering power to all residential homes within a radius of 50 to 100 meters. This initiative can save a significant amount of wiring and cabling, and it can avoid almost all risks of electric leakage. Please look at the screen. For a residential area covering an area of over 30,000 square meters, only 9 distribution rooms would be needed in the future to supply wireless power to all homes within the coverage area."
"A large hospital like this would only require 6 distribution rooms to meet all its power demands."
"A large shopping mall like this would only need 6 distribution rooms, as would municipal facilities, train stations, subway stations, schools, commercial office buildings, factories, and so on. This distribution system can save Huaxia Electric Grid a substantial amount in infrastructure costs. The Artificial Intelligence system used in the distribution system can effectively supply power based on electricity usage and prevent and avoid 99% of electric shock accidents," Toni stated.
The entire conference room was filled with hushed discussions. Li Zhongxia calmly gazed at the concepts on the screen, his mind flooded with memories. In his 30 years at Huaxia Electric Grid, he had witnessed countless storms and too many electric shock accidents. Toni's final sentence, "avoid 99% of electric shock accidents," struck a profound chord deep within him, like the tolling of a massive bronze bell.
